Chapter 414 [Cold Night](1/2)
"Then..." Lan Lan asked anxiously: "May I ask, are there other human races on this continent?"
The elf smiled meaningfully, and he stared at Lan Lan for a few glances.
Then, the answer it said made Lanlan and Tacitus completely desperate!
"Before today... I have never seen humans-the entire abandoned continent has no human existence. And you... are probably the only humans that exist on this continent."
Poof!
When Lan Lan heard this, her body softened and she sat directly on the ground!
Then, this strong woman could not control the disappointment and sadness in her heart at this moment, and two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.
The elf seemed to have already planned to leave, but when he saw Lan Lan sitting on the ground and crying, it seemed to frown and walked to Lan Lan's side.
A rough bupa was handed over by it. Although it was thick, it seemed very clean.
"Wipe away the tears." The elf's tone was very calm: "There is a saying circulating on our continent: Abandon the continent without tears."
No... tears?
What tragic experience did you encounter that you came to such a conclusion?
"I heard you... you came by a boat... and the boat has been destroyed by that thing?"
The elf frowned: "Then aren't you..."
Lan Lan smiled bitterly and shook her head: "We... can't go back. Or... can you tell me where can I find the boat here?"
The elves were silent for a while, with a hint of apology in their voice: "This... from here, it took about two months to walk north. There is a dwarf tribe, which is good at making. I have seen them build ships... But what I have seen are some small ships that can only accommodate a dozen people at most, and they only use this ship to go out to sea to catch some fish - the kind that is very close to the coast. Although... I don't know much about sailing, I think that such a small boat may not be able to sail on the sea for the first half of the year as you said."
After a pause, the elf whispered: "Apart from that... there is no place to find a larger ship. Our elf race does not build ships, we all live in a forest in the north."
This is another heavy blow!
Tacitus's face turned completely dark!
But then the elf said something that surprised them.
"In fact... you probably got something wrong. I don't know how you sailed here... This completely subverted my previous understanding. But as far as I know... going north from here and going north, you will pass through a very cold place. That place is very, very far away. But if you keep walking, you will walk to a new continent... There are humans on that continent. And I heard that it is already a world of humans - I even suspect that you are from that place."
Go north?
Human?
This answer immediately cheered Tacitus and Lanlan up again!
They temporarily ignored the speculation in this elf's words.
From the same place?
How is it possible... We didn't come from the north!
"But... it's 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. Just like the one I killed just now. These monsters are the remnants left by the demons of ancient times. They are not too many, but each is very powerful! Each powerful existence has its own territory. When outsiders break into the territory, they will be attacked once they are alarmed. According to my observation just now... I don't think you have the strength to defeat those monsters.
And... besides those monsters, there are other races on this continent. We elves may not make things difficult for you outsiders. But as far as I know, neither the dwarves nor the orcs will welcome you... because you are humans!"
"Why?" Lan Lan asked, "Didn't you say that there are no humans on this continent? Since you have never seen humans... why should you hate humans?"
"I haven't seen it before, it doesn't mean there is no hatred." The elf smiled faintly: "We races have been forced to survive on this sinister continent for ten thousand years... It's thanks to you humans."
Thank you to your humanity!
This statement immediately shocked Lanlan and Tacitus!!
Of course, ordinary people will not understand this statement. They will not understand the meaning of it!
In fact, most ordinary people in the Roland Empire didn't even know where the dwarf orcs and elves came from in the north of the Roland Continent. Why did they appear a hundred years ago and invade humans?
But Lanlan and Tacitus are the top leaders of the church after all, and they know some secrets.
They probably knew that in the race war ten thousand years ago, humans defeated other races, drove other races out of the Roland Continent, and then dominated the entire continent - well, the name Roland Continent was not yet known at that time.
So... it is understandable if it is an orc dwarf on the Roland Continent who hates humans.
But the dwarves and orcs on this strange continent hate humans?
Why?
Almost instantly, the two of them thought of one at the same time...
A terrible answer!!
Tacitus and Lanlan looked at each other at the same time and exclaimed!
"Where did we... go?!"
...
Lan Lan's breathing became rapid, and her heart pounded wildly! She turned her head to look at the elf, and then she took a deep breath: "Can you...because you...be careful what you say...?"
"Don't you understand?" The elf smiled faintly, mocking in his laughter: "You should know something. Since you have guessed it, why don't you dare to face it?"
After a pause, it sighed quietly: "If I hadn't guessed wrong... in your place, the elves... their leader must be a guy called "Lost Snow."
This time... Lanlan's eyes were wide open and she couldn't even say a word!!!
Snow falls!!
Snow fall!!!
Not only did she know this name... but she also saw Luo Xue herself with her own eyes!!
Just in the frozen forest!!!
Roland Continent... to the north... the frozen forest, the extremely cold land... the abandoned continent...
crime……
Sin!!! People!
Tacitus's face turned pale, and his teeth were chewing!
Then, the sacred knight slowly grabbed Lanlan and helped Lanlan, who had already become weak.
"Okay, I think...we have guessed the truth now...or we are close to the truth!"
Tacitus's eyes shone with anger:
"We were all deceived by that bastard Darling Chen! What kind of overseas human country, a new continent where human civilization lives... are all his lies!! They are all lies he made up to cover up and conceal his origin!!"
Tacitus finally laughed strangely, with deep mockery and anger in his laughter: "Hahahahahaha!! But at least one thing, that Darling Chen did not tell any lies!"
He stared at the blue eyes and said word by word: "The world we exist...land, ocean...it turns out...it is really round!!!"
Looking at Lan Lan's dazed gaze, Tacitus slapped Lan Lan's face hard and said loudly: "Don't you understand yet! If this world is a circular sphere, then it took us half a year to go to sea from Roland! What we are now coming to the back of this sphere! And here, if we keep going north... Based on the same principle, we can also walk back to Roland! We don't need a ship at all! As long as we keep going north, we can walk back to Roland!!"
Round...
Go north...
Walking back to Roland??
This at least gave Lan Lan a glimmer of hope. There was a focal distance in her eyes. She gradually came back to her senses and looked at Tacitus.
But Tacitus had turned around and bowed deeply to the elf!
Meanwhile, Tacitus shouted: "Blue Blue! Translate my words and tell it... I ask, it can help us!"
Lan Lan translated this sentence into an elf language almost confusedly.
After hearing this, the elf was stunned for a moment.
It seemed to touch its chin, and then...
"Okay." The elf nodded: "You are indeed worthy of sympathy. If I don't care about you, you will never be able to walk to the north alive. And... I am very curious about the place you come from... I can take you with you, but I hope. On the way, you can tell me about the continent and that place of your hometown. Especially... I am very curious about the fallen snow, how is it now."
...
Things have developed here and there has been a huge turn!
It turns out that the so-called new continent overseas exists, but the civilization of human beings does not exist!
This is simply the back of this world, a terrible, barren land with many terrible monsters... a sinister continent!
Here... are the abandoned continents of all the alien races who were defeated by humans ten thousand years ago, exiled and driven away after being defeated by humans!
Tacitus and Lanlan did not go far.
In fact, when Lan Lan and others came to support Tacitus, they handed over the team to several people from the church and led the team to walk deeper into the mainland.
Of course they wouldn't go very far in such a short time.
So Lanlan and Tacitus quickly caught up with the team.
And the elf, seeing these human teams, showed a hint of curiosity and surprise.
However, its personality, probably, seems to be biased towards the indifferent type, so it does not show it too obvious.
The morale of Lanlan and Tacitus in the team was greatly encouraged by the fact that Lanlan and Tacitus had returned alive, and when they learned that the monster had been killed, people even cheered.
In particular, everyone discovered that Tacitus and Lanlan actually brought back a... elves?
Although this elf just stood aside with his arms in his arms, it was clearly separated from the team of these humans.
To be continued...
