Chapter 414 [Cold Night]

"So......" Lan Lan anxiously asked, "Excuse me, on this continent...... Are there any other human races?"

The elf smiled meaningfully, and it stared at Lan Lan a few times.

Then, the answer it uttered made Lan Lan and Tacitus completely desperate!

"Before today...... I have never seen a human being - the entire abandoned continent has no human existence. And you ...... Probably the only human beings on this continent who survive. ”

Poof!

When Lan Lan heard this, her body went soft and she sat directly on the ground!

Then, this strong woman, at this moment, finally couldn't hold back the disappointment and sadness in her heart, and two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.

The elf seemed to have planned to leave, but when it saw Lan Lan sitting on the ground and crying, it seemed to frown and walked to Lan Lan's side.

A rough cloth was handed over to it, and although it was rough, it seemed to be clean.

"Wipe away your tears. The elf's tone was calm: "There is a saying on our continent: on the abandoned continent, there are no tears. ”

No...... Tears?

What kind of tragic experience did you have to come to such a conclusion?

"Listen to you...... You came by boat...... And the ship has been wrecked by that thing?"

The elf frowned: "Then you, aren't you ......?"

Lan Lan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "We...... There's no going back. Or...... Can you tell me where I can find the boat here?"

The elf was silent for a moment, its voice apologetic, "Is this...... From here, about two months to the north, there is a tribe of dwarves who are good at making. I've seen them build ships, too...... But all I saw were small boats, which could only accommodate a dozen or so people at most. And they only use these boats to go out to sea to catch some fish -- the kind that is very close to the shore. Though...... I don't know much about sailing, but I don't think it's possible for such a small boat to sail at sea for half a year, as you said. ”

After a pause, the elf whispered, "Besides...... There is no place to find a bigger ship. We elven races, we don't know how to build ships, we all live in a forest in the north. ”

This is another heavy blow!

Tacitus's face had darkened completely!

But then the elf said something that surprised them.

"In fact...... You've probably got one thing wrong. I don't know how you got here...... This completely changed my previous perception. But as far as I know...... From here, all the way north, all the way north. It will pass through a very cold place. That place is very, very far away. But if you keep going, you'll come to a new continent...... On that continent, there are human beings. And I've heard that it's already a human world - I even suspect you're from that place. ”

To the north?

Mankind?

This answer immediately reinvigorated Tacitus and Lanlan!

They ignored the speculation in the elf's words for the time being.

From the same place?

How can it be...... We're not from the north!

"But...... It is very difficult to walk north. The elf looked at the humans in front of him with pity: "From here to the north, you will pass through several very dangerous areas along the way. On this continent, there are many powerful creatures. It's like the one I just killed. These monsters are the remnants of the demons of ancient times. There aren't too many of them, but each one of them is powerful! Outsiders break into the territory and are attacked once they are alarmed. Based on what I just observed...... I don't think you have what it takes to defeat those monsters.

And...... In addition to those monsters, there are ...... on this continent There are other races as well. We elves may not embarrass you outsiders. But as far as I know. Whether it's a dwarf or an orc...... You won't be welcome...... Because, you are human!"

"Why?" Lan Lan asked, "Didn't you say that there are no humans on this continent?" since you have never seen a human being...... Why hate humans?"

"I haven't seen it. It doesn't mean there is no hatred. The elf smiled faintly: "We races have been forced to survive on this treacherous continent for 10,000 years...... It is thanks to you human beings. ”

Thanks to you human beings!

This statement immediately surprised Lan Lan and Tacitus!!

This statement. Of course, ordinary people will not understand it, and they will not understand the meaning!

In fact, most of the ordinary people in the Roland Empire didn't even know where those dwarves, orcs, and elves in the north of the Roland Continent came from, and why they appeared a hundred years ago and then invaded the human race.

But Lan Lan and Tacitus are the top of the church after all, and they know some secrets.

They probably knew that in the race war 10,000 years ago, humanity defeated other races, drove other races out of the Roland Continent, and then dominated the entire continent - well, there was no name for Roland Continent at that time.

So...... If it is an orc dwarf on the Roland continent and hates humans, it is understandable.

But the dwarves and orcs of this alien continent hate humans?

Why?

Almost instantly, the two thought of a ...... at the same time

A terrible answer!!

Tacitus and Lan Lan looked at each other at the same time and exclaimed!

"We ...... Where the hell did you go?!"

……

Lan Lan's breathing became rapid, and one of her hearts thumped! Turning her head to look at the elf, she took a deep breath: "You...... What can you say...... More careful??"

"Don't you understand?" the elf smiled faintly, and there was some mockery in his laughter, "You must know something." If you've guessed everything, why don't you dare to face it?"

After a pause, it sighed faintly, "If I'm not guessing wrong...... In that place of yours, there are elves of zài...... Their leader must be a guy named 'Falling Snow'. ”

This time...... Lan Lan's eyes were already wide, and she couldn't say a word!!

Falling snow!!

Falling Snow !!

She didn't just know the name...... And...... She has also seen Falling Snow herself!!

It's in the frozen forest!!

Roland Continent ...... ...... to the north Frozen Forest. Extremely Cold Land...... Abandoned Continent ......

Crime......

Sin!!People!!

Tacitus' face was pale, and his teeth were rattling!

Then, this holy knight slowly grabbed Lan Lan and helped Lan Lan, whose body was already weak, to his feet.

"Okay, I guess...... We've guessed the truth now...... Or rather, we're close to the truth!"

Tacitus' eyes gleamed with anger:

"We've all been deceived by that bastard Darling Chan! What kind of overseas human country, a new continent inhabited by human civilization...... It's all a lie he made up to cover up and conceal his origins!!"

At the end, Tacitus let out a strange laugh. There was deep mockery and anger in his laughter: "Hahahaha!!!, but at least one thing, that Darling Chen didn't tell a lie!"

He stared at Lan Lan's eyes and said word by word: "The world we exist in...... Land, sea...... Originally...... It's really all round!!"

Looking at Lan Lan's distracted gaze, Tacitus slapped Lan Lan's face hard, and said loudly: "Don't you understand! If this world is a circular sphere, then it took us half a year to go to sea from the Roland Continent! We are now on the back of this sphere......! Based on the same reasoning. We can also walk back to Roland Continent! We don't need ships at all! As long as we keep going north, we can walk back to Roland Continent!!"

Round......

...... to the north

Walk back to Roland??

This at least gave Lan Lan a glimmer of hope. Her eyes gradually gained focus, and she gradually came back to her senses and looked at Tacitus.

Tacitus had already turned. Bow deeply to that elf!

At the same time, Tacitus exclaimed, "Lan Lan......! I please, it can help us!"

Lan Lan translated this sentence into Elven language almost blankly.

When the elf heard this, he was stunned for a moment.

It was as if it was touching its own chin. And then......

"Okay. The elf nodded, "You deserve sympathy." If I don't care about you, you will never make it to the north alive. And...... I'm curious about the place you're from...... I can take you with me. But I hope that on the way, you can tell me about the continent and the place where you live. Especially...... I'm curious, that falling snow, how is it now. ”

……

Things have come to this point, and there has been a huge turn!

It turns out that the so-called overseas New World is a zài, but what kind of human civilization does not exist!

This is the back of this world, a terrible, barren place with many terrible monsters...... Sinister continent!

Over here...... It is the life of those alien races who were exiled and driven from the defeat of humans 10,000 years ago...... Abandon the Continent!

Tacitus and Blueblue didn't go far.

In fact, when Lan Lan and the others came to support Tacitus, they handed over the team to a few people in the church and led the team to the mainland.

In such a short period of time, they certainly won't go very far.

So Lan Lan and Tacitus they quickly caught up with the group.

And the elf, seeing that there were still so many people in the team of these humans, also showed a trace of curiosity and surprise.

However, its character, probably, seems to be inclined to the type of indifferent temperament, so it is not too obvious.

The morale of the people in the team was greatly boosted by the fact that Lan Lan and Tacitus had actually returned alive, and the result of learning that the monster had been killed made people cheer.

In particular, everyone found that Tacitus and Lan Lan actually brought back a ...... Genie?

Although this elf just stood from a distance with his arms crossed, and he was clearly distinguishable from the human team.

However, this is at least the first intelligent race that everyone has seen since coming to this terrible place. Isn't it?

What's more, Lan Lan and Tacitus told them that this elf was willing to help them and lead the way.

For the people in the church, Lan Lan and Tacitus did not hide it, and directly told the truth: it was this elf who killed that monster, and it was a very powerful being!

And for those ordinary sailors and crews, it can't be said too bluntly.

After all...... What a circular world, abandoning the continent and these things are too far away from ordinary people. Speaking out, I'm afraid that everyone may not be able to accept this terrible fact!

And...... To go north, I don't know how many tens of thousands of miles to go home, (in fact, this elf doesn't know how far to go north. It just tells us that more than a hundred years ago, the falling snow led the migration of several races and a huge part of the people here, heading north. It is to return to the Roland continent and regain his homeland. ）

But anyway, it's always a hope, isn't it?

……

The procession began to move north. To be precise, walk in a northeasterly direction.

According to the elf, if you walk northeast for about a month, you will reach a valley. It was a small, ethnically mixed settlement.

Where the team can get some supplies.

Continuing north, their first destination was the elf's home.

A forest area in the north of this continent. There, there are elven tribes that exist zài.

On the way, the elves of Tongguò, Tacitus and Lanlan, have a better understanding of the world.

According to the elves, more than a hundred years ago, all the alien races lived on this continent.

Because the land on this continent is barren, it is difficult to grow many plants here. I don't know what the reason is, but the land here is also difficult to cultivate, and the harvest is very thin.

And...... The climate here is very bad. The weather was very cold!

But just over a hundred years ago, all the aliens here got an "oracle".

The elves didn't reveal much about this oracle.

It just said that after receiving this oracle, the leaders of all the races were shaken, and then everyone began to deliberate, and the end result was all migration!

They made the decision to mobilize the people, all the races began to prepare for war, they prepared weapons, they prepared armies, they hollowed out all their families. Then the clan goes north!

Their goal is to leave this continent and return to Roland, to reclaim the home that originally belonged to them and was later occupied by humans!

"And it was after that that the climate on this continent began to change. The weather is starting to get less cold. In the beginning, it was a slow change. We only felt that the long cold winter was getting shorter and shorter...... It turns out that it is here, and almost three-quarters of the year is a cold winter, and the weather is so cold that it almost freezes and cracks the stones!

But after that oracle, the weather began to change. Until today, the climate here is starting to become less terrible. Although the winter is still very long, it is only four or five months. Most of the time, it's not too difficult. ”

The elf smiled.

It walks side by side with Blue Blue.

In fact, in the entire team, because only Lan Lan can speak Elf language, and this elf can only communicate with Lan Lan along the way, so the two have always walked together.

The weather is still good, and the sun is high in the sky. It was a sunny morning.

Facing the sun, the team walked unhurriedly on the wilderness.

With this elf as a guide, the team suddenly had a lot more confidence.

This elf is unusually familiar with the terrain - according to its description of Blue Blue, it often comes out to "hunt".

The so-called hunting is to hunt those monsters left behind by the ancient demons!

The existence of these monsters, Yan zhòng, affected the survival of the elves, orcs and dwarves who remained on this continent.

Originally, in that frozen and cold era, the activities of these monsters were not frequent.

But with the improvement of the climate over the past hundred years, the activities and haunts of these monsters have become more and more numerous.

It's as if the animals have gone through a long hibernation, and these monsters are getting more and more fond of moving around - and they're going to hunt for food, too!

Then there is no doubt that their targets are other races that live on this continent!

So...... The races that remain here have reached a consensus. Every year when the weather is at its best, each race sends its strongest warriors out and travels around hunting these terrible monsters.

"So...... Why do you ...... I mean...... Elves like you ......"

"Are you trying to ask why everyone has migrated out of here and gone to your continent to fight you...... And people like me stayed here and didn't leave?"

The elf sighed softly—Blue caught it, in its eyes. There was a faint flash of ...... Pain?

It turned its head to look into blue eyes: "I know...... Maybe we should all hate you humans. But I think that 10,000 years is enough. I was born here, and all my memories are in this land...... I don't know what the word homeland meant to my ancestors 10,000 years ago. But at least, in my mind, the homeland ...... This is it, this place. This land. ”

After a pause, it whispered, "It's not just me, there are other guys who share the same idea as me." So...... When almost everyone chooses to leave here, take up arms. Shouting slogans, fanatically following the leaders, embarking on a journey north, ready to start a war. When you go to fight with you humans and grab the land...... Me, and us...... Those of us who chose to stay. Stay here.

Perhaps, of course, you can consider us cowards.

But we just don't want to go through war, we just want to live here, in what we think we are.

So ......"

It smiled, a pair of exposed eyes, curved like a crescent moon.

"No! it's not cowardice. Nobody likes war. Lan Lan immediately shook her head: "Even if it is in the current Roland Continent...... Humans and dwarves and elves are very harmonious. Only orcs...... Our relationship ...... Still a little nervous......"

"I tell you a little secret. The elf suddenly leaned closer, lowered his voice and smiled, "Actually...... I don't like orcs either. Because...... They are dirty and always don't like to bathe, hahahahahaha......hahahaha

Lan Lan couldn't help but laugh too.

Then she looked at the elf in front of her...... Listen to the beautiful sound of it laughing.

Lan Lan's heart suddenly moved: "That...... It's been a few days...... I haven't had a chance to ask your name...... And also...... Please forgive my presumptuousness...... What shall I call you, sir, or ...... I'm sorry, ma'am...... Because you're so beautiful, I can't tell the difference at all......"

The elf's laughter died down suddenly.

It narrowed its eyes and glanced at Lan Lan.

As if there was silence for a moment, it whispered, "Okay...... Anyway, you'll always know my name. ”

It was as if it was looking up at the sky again.

"I was born in a snowy season...... That's why my name is ......."

Lan Lan's face was a little strange: "You...... Wouldn't it be called snowfall?"

"Of course not. The elf smiled: "Actually...... I was born on the same day as it, and the falling snow is its name, and I ...... My name is Cold Night, well, Cold Night, that's my name. ”

"Falling snow...... Cold Night ......" Lan Lan's eyes widened: "You...... Are you really born on the same day as the snow? That's, that's a ...... What a coincidence, and...... I haven't told you yet, but last year, I had the pleasure of meeting Lady Falling Snow...... Do you know Lord Falling Snow?"

"I? Of course I know it. Han Ye's eyes were a little confused: "Actually, I've known that guy since birth." It's mine...... Brother. We are twins. It came into the world a moment before me, and I ...... It's its sister. ”

Falling snow?

Twins?

Younger sister??!!

Lan Lan's eyes widened suddenly!!

"And ...... Thank you for complimenting me on my beauty. Hanye smiled softly: "But...... I know this face of mine...... You would even say that I am beautiful, that you are such an interesting human being. (To be continued......)
