At dusk, Hilraya returned.

As soon as he came back, he fanned his face with his hand, took off his clothes while fanning, and sat back in the pool with a 'poof'.

"Hmm~~ The strength of the adults is getting more and more refined, and it feels very hot when you get a little closer."

She sniffed her arm again and commented, "But the smell of adults is getting heavier and heavier." ”

Then I buried myself in the pool, carefully washed my body, washed it many times, and used all kinds of naturally purified shower gels and other things to make sure that there was no smell on my body before stopping.

Then he turned to look at Rosen.

"I told Eve's father about you. He told me that the adults are still angry, so they can't rush. ”

"The safest way is for you to stay in the swamp for a while, so that you can be contaminated with enough swamp breath, so as not to make the adults angry with a single look."

"How long will it take?"

"At least ten days. Don't wear grass skirts, and try not to use spells, just wear the clothes we provide. ”

"Of course, if you like to be naked, it's okay, anyway, it's our family around here. But remember to apply this potion to the skin to protect against mosquitoes and leeches. ”

She handed Rosen a hollow reed pole.

Lawson opened the plug at one end and sniffed it, feeling a spicy, fishy and embarrassing smell, and couldn't help asking, "This can't be some kind of excrement from adults, right?" ”

"Guess right, it's made of adult's urine mixed with herbs, and after applying it, not only will poisonous insects be kept away, but the extraordinary beasts of the swamp will not dare to do anything to you easily."

"Understood."

As for the ten days of preparation, it was much longer than Rosen expected, but it was acceptable.

He put away the reed rod and put away the immortal mana, feeling that it was always a little difficult to accept being naked directly: "Ciel, then give me a few sets of clothes." ”

Shirraya casually pointed to the closet on the other side.

"Over there, you can take whatever you want, Brother Eve is about the same size as you, and you can wear each other's clothes. However, it is best not to wear it in the water, it will be uncomfortable to wear if it gets wet. ”

"Remembered."

Since everyone else can let go of the girls, he naturally doesn't care if he is a big man, so he just opens his heart.

And in this hot and humid swampy place, sitting in the cool pool is indeed quite refreshing, and I want to lie in the pool and never get up.

Seeing that he was so quick to follow the local customs, Hilraya smiled, casually took her daughter Eve in her arms, and chatted with Rosen.

"Rosen, you are the Duke of Storm, the Duke should be very busy, why do you have time to come to the swamp in person?"

Rosen smiled: "Actually, I'm not a duke now, and when I'm tired of it, I passed the title to my wife in the East." ”

"I've also heard about Robinson's stupid things, so I'm going to take a turn and see if I can ease the relationship."

Shirlaya nodded in understanding.

"The Duke of the mortal world looks at the scenery, but the work must be very heavy, and it must be very unfree, with the current strength of my brother-in-law, there is really no need to be entangled with a group of mortals every day."

After a few more small talks, Rosen pointed to Ryder, who was sitting in the corner of the pool, always silent.

"Eve says Ryder was found in the ruins of a lost temple?"

"That's right."

"Are the ruins far from here?"

Hiranya didn't hide it either, and spoke in detail.

"The ruins are to the south, two thousand rameters to the south. My husband also happened to visit and found him. ”

"He was in a coma and couldn't wake up, so out of kindness, my husband brought him back."

There was a hint of nostalgia on her face: "Speaking of which, this was 300 years ago. At that time, the ruins were almost completely obscured by vegetation, and now they must be completely obscured. ”

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and hit the daughter who was moving in his arms, and scolded: "How old are you, and you still want to breastfeed?" ”

Evelyna immediately became honest, but after a while, she couldn't sit still.

"Mother, it's really boring to listen to you adults chatting, I'm going out to catch water rabbits~ Ryder, come with me."

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lawson: "Uncle, it's fun to catch water rabbits, let's go together." ”

Although it was already dusk, it was still very hot, and Lawson didn't want to go out and run around, and he also wanted to continue to inquire about Ryder.

He shook his head again and again: "You can spare me, and I'll talk about it in a few days." In the past few days, I have been used to it, this place is so hot and so hot that people will faint. ”

"Okay then."

Evelyna took Ryder and left.

Hiranya hurriedly instructed, "It's getting late, grab it nearby, bring the communication device, and don't go too far, Eve." ”

"Got it, Mother."

Evelyna's voice came back from afar, and it was already more than a hundred meters away.

Only Rosen and Hillaya were left in the room.

Rosen continued the previous topic.

"Ciel~ I suspect that Ryder is the creation of an ancient civilization, so I am very interested in the ruins of that temple, and I want to take a look, but I don't know the way, can you find me a guide?"

Hilraya thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll bring you a book, it's my husband's travel notes, on which you should be able to find the travel route 300 years ago." ”

She got up and went to a primitive bone bookcase nearby to look for books.

The bookcase was low, so she stooped down to look for it.

Rosen naturally turned his head to take a look, and immediately felt rude, and immediately turned his head, looked down at the sparkling pool, and secretly complained in his heart.

"This ghost place is not only hot, but also very hot~"

After rummaging for a while, Hirraya walked back with a leather book and handed it to Lawson's shoulder from behind: "Waterproof book soaked in wax, feel free to read." ”

Lawson stretched out his hand to take it, and found that the book was very thick, and the pages were very large, and when he opened it, he found that the words were very small, and there were some illustrations, and the content was very detailed.

But there was a problem that he didn't know the words on it.

There was a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Ciel, I can't read the wood elf text. ”

"Oh~ I'm so sorry, I'll read it to you."

As soon as Hirraya sat down in the pool, when she heard this, she paddled directly to Rosen's side, leaned on Rosen's shoulder, looked at the cover, and said, "That travelogue should be on page 113." ”

Rosen immediately flipped to the corresponding page and bent his shoulders, allowing himself to keep some ceremonial distance from Ciel.

Hilraya felt it, but when she didn't notice it, she began to read seriously the travel diary that her husband had recorded 300 years ago.

She reads carefully, Lawson listens attentively, and carefully analyzes the location of the ancient lost ruins, with the illustrations on the pages.

After listening for a while, I heard some strange new words.

"The remnants of the Ancient Goblin Empire? Did goblins also build empires? ”

Hilraya nodded: "That should have been nearly 10,000 years ago, probably during the Great War of the Hundred Clans. Have you heard of the Hundred Clans War? ”

"I heard Grand Elder Wendy Rela talk about it once."

"Ah~~ Grand Elder Wendyrela is my grandmother, and I actually heard my story from her."

"She told me that these stupid and greedy blue-skinned goblins in the swamp today were once a great race in ancient times."

"Great?"

Rosen was surprised that he could call a strong person like Wendyrela, who was close to the ultimate of immortality, great, which showed that the achievements of the goblins in the past may really not be simple.

When you think about it, it's not unusual.

Because the civilization history of this world is particularly long, the Great Elder Wendy alone lived for 12,000 years, and the Great Eternal Tree lived for 30,000 years.

30,000 years ago, there was a mortal girl named Adelaqiya who walked to the island of Grent and had the leisure to plant trees, indicating that there was a high civilization at that time.

In this world where mana exists, as long as a civilization takes the right path and focuses on exploring the mysteries of the world, it will be able to reach some kind of extreme in less than a thousand years.

And many earthlings have the illusion that civilization will continue forever and will always go upward.

But in fact, as long as the time span is extended, civilization is like life, it has been up and down, and it cannot always be at the peak.

There is rise, there is decline, there is greatness, nature and humbleness.

As Rosen pondered, a whisper of Hilraya rang out of his ears.

"My grandmother said that every intelligent race that exists today has had a glorious era except for the orcs."

Rosen felt that these words were really full of the wisdom of time, just like all the civilians in the human society today, if they keep falling up, they will definitely be able to pour out a shining ancestor.

Because if the ancestors were as mediocre as this commoner, they would be extinct in a few generations.

But the last few words made him want to laugh, remembering a certain 'I will not be racist' joke.

He asked, "What happened to the orcs?" ”

"The orcs are too young, they have only just escaped their obscurity. To be precise, it is not yet 2000 years, and they have not yet had time to establish their glory. ”

That's true, too.

Rosen returned to the ancient goblin civilization with interest: "Miss Hill, did your grandmother say that the goblins have reached what heights?" ”

"Grandmother said that the goblin is an alchemy civilization, which is very similar to the current Golden God Clan."

"They have achieved incredible feats in alchemy and have tried to use alchemy to create true gods. But in the end it failed. ”

"The reason for their defeat was not a foreign threat, but a racial civil strife. Eventually, in a civil war known as Empire Twilight, the goblins ruined their splendor with their own hands. ”

"After the Great War, the continent was in extreme chaos. A full 1,100 years passed before the Terrans re-emerged from the ruins of the Goblin Empire. ”

Rosen listened fascinated, alchemy to create true gods, these goblins really dare to think, indeed worthy of the description of 'great'.

He also wanted to visit the abandoned temple to the south more and more, and even greatly exceeded the expectation of cooperation with Jörmungard.

I couldn't help but ask, "Ciel, when will your husband come back?" ”

"The day after tomorrow."

"It's going to take so long. Can I go to him? ”

I just want to find this brother-in-law to lead the way.

"Don't."

"Jörmungard is very sensitive and cautious, and when he bathes, he will not tolerate any stranger approaching, and if he finds out, he will be furious, and everyone will suffer."

"And this is still normal time, and now in the air, it is even more difficult to serve."

She understood what Rosen was thinking, and looked apologetic.

"The Starlight Deer family is a servant of the adult, and there is a big day once every half a month. You have to take a break between big days and prepare for the next big day, and there is no freedom at all. ”

"So, you'll have to go to the ruins on your own."

"Okay."

Rosen felt a little unhappy in his heart: 'This snake is really hard to serve. ”

But then he thought about it: 'In the end, if you have the ultimate power of immortality, or a legendary race, it is normal for the shelf to be big. ’

Since you have to go on your own, you have to understand the information in more detail.

He continued to ask, "Ciel, can you continue to read the travelogue?" ”

Hill just read on.

The travelogue is quite long, reading and reading, and the body that has been far away because of etiquette is too lazy to stretch up, so in order to save effort, I simply rely on reading it together.

After reading the travelogue, Lawson had a fairly accurate understanding of the specific location of the ruins, and he wanted to go to see it now, but when he saw that the sky was already a little dark, he dispelled his impulse and prepared to go again early the next morning.

"Eve hasn't come back yet?"

Shir Raya was also a little worried, picked up the communicator and shouted: "Eve, it's time to go home~"

After a while, a response came: "Mother, wait, I found a big rabbit nest." ”

After confirming that her daughter was safe, Hirraya was also bored, so she said, "Lawson, it's okay anyway, I'll read a few more paragraphs to you, right?" ”

Rosen said, "Why don't you tell me about swamp survival skills?" ”

"Okay."

Hiranya continued to share her valuable experiences with Rosen.

While listening to it, Rosen cooperated with Robinson's "Yunmeng Swamp Adventure Travels", and looked at each other, and immediately felt that he benefited a lot.

Sitting a little sore, he raised his hand to support the ground and prepared to change his position, this support, found that the hand felt a little soft, looked down, and propped it on Hilraya's thigh.

Hiraya's voice paused, looked down at Lawson's hand, and then ignored it, continuing to teach the technique.

Rosen's heart moved, and when he sensed something, he simply didn't come back.

After a while, he asked, "Ciel, how did you choose to marry in such a boring place?" ”

"When two clans marry, how can there be a choice?"

"Besides, I was just a beginner. Just in the face of the rebellion of the lower elves, the moon elves are in despair. It just so happened that my husband came to ask for marriage, and the great elder asked me to marry, so I got married. ”

"Now that so many years have passed, I am used to it."

After a pause, she added softly: "However, sometimes I really want to go to the outside world, but unfortunately the outside world is too cruel, and I can't let go of my family in my heart." ”

Rosen understood, his character was more indecisive, and he had the idea of pursuing freedom, but he did not have the determination and strength to pursue freedom.

Feeling hot, he couldn't help but hold Hill on his lap and asked softly, "Is it okay?" ”

Hill pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

"Yes, but quickly, don't let my daughter see it."

"Okay, I'll take this opportunity to take a look at your transcendent heart and see if there's anything you can do to improve it. It's my reward for you. ”

"Then thank you brother-in-law."

Rosen began to take a closer look.

After about ten minutes, he came to a conclusion.

After years of polishing, Hiraya's transcendent heart has been quite perfect, with the strength reaching the 12th level of the Immortal Extreme, and the quality reaching 7.95, which is only the last line away from breaking through the Immortal Realm!

He calculated carefully, and after calculating for more than ten minutes, he came to a new conclusion.

He can help.

But in the end, promotion is not a trivial matter.

Rosen asked cautiously, "Ciel, if you are promoted to the Immortal Realm, will it have a huge impact on your life?" ”

I am afraid that I will act recklessly and do bad things with good intentions.

Shirraya thought for a moment and shook her head.

"No big impact. I'm still the head mother of the Starlight Deer family, and I'm still the wife of my husband, and of course, I'm also the Hillraya of the Morningstar family. ”

"Of course, life will become more stable, but it will not change the status quo of being a servant of Jörmungard."

The immortal level 1 of the ordinary race is far from being able to compete with the immortal extreme of the legendary race.

Rosen understood: "Very good, then you are great." ”

After some fine operation, it successfully broke through the quality of its extraordinary heart to the first line and improved it to 8.0.

With just such a slight advance, it helped Shirraya's strength to go one step further, and he advanced to the first level of immortality.

Shirraya's body shook violently, and she grabbed Lawson's arm tightly, her muscles tensed, and the silver eyes unique to the High Moon Elves opened widely, and the light in her eyes was shining.

After a full minute, the light in his eyes slowly converged and became warm as water.

She let out a long sigh: "It turns out that this is the power of the Immortal Realm, it's good." ”

Her tone and demeanor were very calm, and she only showed a slight hint of joy, indicating that she had a pursuit of power, but she was not fanatical.

This kind of indifferent mentality generally appears in the longevity elves, and it is difficult for the short-lived golden human race to do it.

The latter are generally ecstatic, dancing, and even have a drastic change in temperament.

Since Hill is so calm, Rosen is completely relieved.

"Ciel, go ahead and talk to me about swamp adventure techniques."

He was also very happy in his heart, because of this help, Mother Earth rewarded him with a full 0.1 level, and now it is 3.9.

Breaking through the shackles of long-term power, Hilraya was actually quite happy, and immediately said: "Brother-in-law, I will share the knowledge I know with you without any selfishness. ”
