Just when it was getting dark and the ice and snow on Katis's body finally melted, Jiang Bai heard a voice.

"You're finally here......"

Jiang Bai was about to go and get the diary that Katis put on his chest, but when he heard this voice, his hand shook, and the diary he got almost fell to the ground.

This voice did not ring in Jiang Bai's ears alone, Albedo also heard it.

But at this moment, there was no one else around except them, and this sudden sound immediately caused the two of them to be immediately alert.

"Who?!"

"Don't be afraid, it's me." An illusory figure floated out of the diary in Jiang Bai's hand.

It was Katis, the soul that had been accidentally left behind by a powerful obsession and the special circumstances of this place.

He possessed the diary that he valued most, retaining his memory and consciousness.

Jiang Bai had already seen a ghost, and when he saw the ghost of Katis again, he was not too surprised and accepted it well.

Albedo, the researcher's instinct, subconsciously began to study the constituent substance of the soul in front of him.

Study why he was able to exist even after he was separated from his body.

"You came a little earlier than I thought." Kartis's tone was relaxed, and although he looked fierce because of the scars on his face, he was actually a good talker.

"Alas, if I hadn't met Albedo, I might still be finding my way to the road now......" Jiang Bai sighed.

He found that the Quartet had no role in guiding the way, and could only point out the direction where Kartis was, not show him the way.

In other words, if Katis died in the sky, it could only point to the sky and rely on Jiang Bai to find a way to go to the sky.

Although it looks for an exit in a secret place or a dangerous place, more often than not, it needs a path to get into, not an exit.

After all, the premise of finding an exit is that he can enter the secret realm.

Can't even get in and find some exit?

But there is no way, this kind of demand is too unnatural to be realized.

Rather than whimsical, it is better to make a map with detailed marks of the size of the road when you go out on business.

"Hehe, it also took me years to figure out the road on the snowy mountain." Katis chuckled, for his memories were still clear shortly after his death.

"I have a map of the snow-capped mountains in my backpack, which I drew myself, maybe it's a little shabby, if you don't dislike it, you can take it, and you won't get lost next time."

"What I'm missing right now is a map!" Jiang Bai was grateful.

Although he has found someone, it does not mean that he knows the road to the snow-capped mountains, with such a map drawn by the snow-capped mountain explorer himself, there will be no dilemma of not being able to find the road next time.

Just as Jiang Bai was happily flipping through the map, Albedo spoke, "Mr. Katis, you shouldn't be able to maintain this state for a long time, right?" ”

"Yes." Katis nodded, "I still exist, only because I am unwilling in my heart, and because I am affected by the nearby leylines, after a while, I may have to return to the arms of the wind god." ”

"Unwilling? Didn't your wish come true? Jiang Bai asked curiously.

He's already on the top of the mountain, he should get his wish, right?

Katis looked at the spike not far away, with a complicated expression, "Yes." Although I had reached the top of the mountain, when I saw the huge stone nail, I had more problems, and these problems became my obsession. ”

"I explored the past of this snow-capped mountain, and explored the history of this snow-capped mountain, but the more I explored, the more I realized that the past here is full of mysteries. It wasn't until I saw it that I realized that it was all just a punishment from the sky. ”

"But why does the sky punish you? In the past, the people here have been instructed by the sky......"

Katis's eyes were full of doubt, he didn't understand why the sky had abandoned her people, or why the sky had allowed the country to grow and then destroy it.

Kartis's words, Jiang Bai can be said to have not understood a word.

Punishment in the sky? Is there something else in the sky? Is it a god? Or something else?

What is the past of this snow-capped mountain? Why was it destroyed?

He and Albedo looked through Katis's diary in an attempt to find the answer.

Kartis's diary was quite extensive, and the thick notebook was almost full of blank pages.

Omitting the unimportant, Jiang Bai focused on the past written on the snow-capped mountains.

【...... On June 8th, I walked around the snow-capped mountains, and I found the last stone tablet that recorded the contents, and with the help of the murals I had seen, I finally pieced together the past of this snow-capped mountain. 】

[That was a long time ago, when the land of Mondstadt was still in a blizzard. 】

[There is a group of people who have come to this green paradise away from the ice and snow and strife. There is a huge silver-white tree that originates from the leylines of the earth, and the ancient tree protects the land from wind and snow. 】

Messengers of God descended from the sky, and here they listened to the instructions of the Isle of Sky, and established a nation called [Charr Findneer]. 】

[With the blessing of the oracle and the leylines, Findnir developed at an extremely fast speed, and reached the peak with the birth of the princess. 】

[However, the good times did not last long, and the spikes that fell from the sky destroyed everything, and also destroyed the silver-white ancient trees that sheltered them. Since then, it has been covered with snow and wind. 】

[They can no longer hear the sound from the sky......]

[The white tree on which it depended was destroyed by the spikes, and the people could only hide in shelters, shivering in the bitter cold. 】

[The king in charge of communicating with the gods climbed to the top of the mountain and tried to communicate with the sky, but he never returned......]

[The princess took over her duties in grief, and she plucked the most intact branches of the white tree in an attempt to heal the leylines and prolong its life, but ultimately failed. 】

[In the midst of cold and ice, this ephemeral country has come to an end......]

After reading Katis's diary, Jiang Bai could finally understand what he was saying.

Once upon a time, there was a prosperous country here, but it was destroyed by a spike from the sky. The relics left on this snow-capped mountain are all left by the country called Charles Findnier.

"Sky? Is there something in the sky? Jiang Bai looked up at the sky, but the sky was blocked by wind and snow, and he couldn't see anything.

"The seven gods who rule this world are called the [Seven Archons of the World], and above the seven gods, there is also a Sky Island." Albedo added a little common sense to Jiang Bai.

"I see, there is still a ...... above God who is in charge of God" Jiang Bai suddenly realized.
