Chapter two(1/2)
"Put her down? King of Destruction?" Cohen stood firm and asked doubtfully, "Finally, something came out to speak?"
The dutiful Bai Ying had immediately stood in front of Cohen and was on full alert. The position he stood in did not block Cohen's sight and could protect him at any time.
On the surface of the lake, the rising waves continued to rise and became thicker. When they rose to half the height of the two people, the water column began to change its shape. In the end, the light blue water column transformed into a man wearing a battle armor and holding a long weapon.
A classical woman with a sword. Although her whole body is made of water, she is lifelike. Even the subtle expression changes on her face and every fold in her clothing are perfectly expressed, millions of times more delicate than the most delicate statue.
times.
"Water God clone, another Water God clone!" This was not the first time that Cohen saw this kind of creature, but he didn't expect to encounter it here. His words were full of uncontrollable excitement, and he shouted happily, "The leader and elder of the Aqua Tribe
Entrust me to find the water god, I am Cohen Keda!"
Cohen's ecstasy is easy to understand. There is no reason why the water god's clone appeared here, and she can also speak, so she can find the water god through her. Finding the water god means that you are only one step away from the source of life. In this case,
This means that Fischette's rebirth is just around the corner! When thinking of this, how can Cohen not be excited? How can he not be excited?
"Your Highness is well." The Water God clone said, his voice solemn and penetrating, as if he could directly enter Cohen's brain, "Of course I know your Highness's identity, but before you speak, Your Highness, should I put her down first.
"
"Your Excellency, you are well. If you didn't remind me, I almost forgot." Realizing his gaffe, Cohen smiled slightly and put down the big tree on his shoulders. However, feeling the "naughty" nature of the tree, Cohen was
Let "her" lie on the pier, and then he sat down on the edge of the pier and nodded to the image of the water god, "The water god's clone I saw last time couldn't speak. You are much better than her, but this time
The dress is obviously not suitable for you, so you'd better wear a robe to be elegant and quiet."
"The one your Highness saw before was the clone left by the Water God on the offshore island, and I am the other clone of the Water God." The Water God clone in the lake approached Cohen, and his tone had slowed down when he spoke.
Put her down! Your Highness Cohen Keda, you have just injured her and she is very scared."
"That's no problem." Cohen raised the corner of his eye and motioned Bai Ying to do physical work while he chatted with the water god seriously, "But what makes me wonder is why you call this tree 'her'? This tree
How did the tree come to the pier from under my nose? Also, what kind of place is this and why did it take me so long to find it?"
"Your Highness has too many questions, which are beyond my scope of authority. I can only answer what I know." The Water God clone continued to approach, "She is not a plant itself, so she can naturally move. Your Highness, you can turn your head and look at it now."
clear."
Cohen turned around to look, and was startled by the change in the shape of the tree. He immediately screamed and jumped into the water with dancing steps. Because the previous big tree had now turned into a person, about one year old.
A beautiful woman not yet twenty years old!
Compared with ordinary humans, her skin color is slightly whiter, and she is wearing silk clothing. Because her head is lowered, Cohen can't see her face clearly. She is stroking a wound on her right arm with her left hand, and there are a few traces of red.
Blood stains spread out from between his fingers. Of course Cohen knew that the wound was a good thing he had done just now.
Bai Ying stood motionless, neither making a sound nor making a move. Because she knew that although it was surprising that a tree turned into a living person, it did not make Cohen so upset - he
The reason why he fell in such an exaggerated manner was probably due to some conspiracy. The answer soon came out. The water god's clone stretched out his arm to catch Cohen. The body made of water can lift an adult's body. This is what happened.
The most amazing thing is that it is just liquid water...
"Look at your wound." The other hand of the Water God clone was placed on the wound of "Tree", but he asked Cohen, "Is the knife used for carving made of special materials?"
"The dagger is made of black iron." Cohen thought the arm of the Water God clone was a chair, "Is it special?"
"For the tree elves, black iron is a special material. Therefore, the injuries can be treated, but the traces cannot be dissipated. In other words, the name Cohen Keda will remain on her arm forever. Your Highness Cohen, can you
Can't you be kinder to plants?" The Water God clone retracted his hand, "However, if a tree elf responsible for peripheral security encounters the King of Destruction, this shouldn't be the worst outcome, right?"
After hearing this, Cohen suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and Bai Ying looked at him with unabashed reproach... How could Cohen have known that things would develop like this? But he was obsessed with face, even if he felt guilty in his heart, he spoke
Even the superiors will not admit it.
"Your Highness." The tree elf who had remained silent finally raised his head, his pink cheeks flushed red, and his beautiful eyes almost shed tears. His expression was both innocent and aggrieved, "Is there any other way? I
…I…I don’t want…”
"There is nothing you can do about leaving traces. Although it is difficult to get used to it, it will get better after a while. You can go and clean it with the mountain spring first!" The Water God clone comforted the tree elf, "Your Highness Cohen Keda, please come up.
Boat."
"No, my enthusiasm has been severely affected." Cohen looked tired and looked like he hadn't woken up, and deliberately changed the topic, "I have been searching hard all day, and I thought I found something good, but I didn't.
Thinking that it is just a water god clone... This blow is very serious to this young master, I ask you to give me some compensation..."
"Speaking in such a tone, His Highness Cohen looks down on me, right?" The Water God clone put Cohen on the small wooden boat aside, and then called Bai Ying to get on. After that, the boat turned around on its own, and drove quickly and steadily towards the "hill" in the lake.
In the past, "His Highness Cohen, does he know that the tree elf you carved just now, although she looks weak and shy, a few ordinary human magicians can't even think of hurting a single leaf of her. Even if the opponent is the most agile warrior,
I can't touch her clothes."
"Then...why was it carved by me?" Cohen laughed dryly, "Is it because this young master is gifted?"
"Nonsense." Although he said reproachful words, a smile was clearly visible on the water god clone's lips, "Your Highness is a guest."
"Forget it if you don't say so. Now that I know how powerful she is, I'll have to compete with her when I get out." Cohen walked to the bow of the ship and sat cross-legged, then looked up at the towering hill. "
What the hell is this place and why are we here?”
"Your Highness, please wait a moment, we will arrive at the shore soon." The Water God clone calmly pushed the boat forward and replied to Cohen: "After landing, Your Highness will naturally find the answers to everything, and
Why rush it?"
"If all my officials were as clueless as you, I would have dragged them out long ago." Cohen looked at the tall embankment that was getting closer and closer, and said to himself: "It's not that they can't see the light of day, so why bother doing it?"
It must be so mysterious.”
Just when Cohen was dissatisfied, the boat had already sailed to a place only a few arms away from the embankment. The two were about to disembark, but the bow of the boat turned left and drove quickly along the embankment. The puzzled Cohen wanted to ask questions
, but the bow of the ship turned to the right and passed directly through the embankment - the world in front of him took on a completely new look: completely different from the outside, the deep green water surrounded a majestic quadrilateral staircase with no vegetation on the surface.
Like a pyramid!
The huge pyramid is divided into nine levels, and is generally dark gray. The upper half of the tower is hidden in the mist, looking cold and solemn. There are wide steps on each side that lead directly to the top platform. On the side facing Cohen, there are stairs on both sides.
Each has a blue light band flowing down from the top, and the other three sides are red, yellow, and transparent light bands. This should be the only different color decoration on the pyramid.
Only then did Cohen realize that the embankment several people high behind him was just a special magic barrier. If someone really parked his boat on the illusory embankment, he didn't know where he would go or what he would see, but he could
It is certain that they will never discover the real location.
The boat finally slowed down and slowly moved towards the platform under the pyramid. This huge stone platform was only a few inches above the water. It was looming and hidden under a row of neat trees, with low green shade and long water waves.
It adds a bit of feminine tenderness to this "unsmiling" pyramid complex.
When one strange landscape after another appeared in front of him, Cohen even felt that the pyramid in front of him was not very real. He felt that this thing was just an illusion, an illusion that existed to hide the truth. Although he thought so in his heart
, but the majesty of the pyramid gradually became real and strong. Cohen Keda, who had never bowed his head to anyone or any force, was deeply shocked by the majestic atmosphere emanating from the pyramid at this moment.
"This thing looks quite tragic, but without losing pride and dignity." Cohen stood up and said to the white figure next to him: "It's hard to imagine! A building can also make people feel such a strong feeling.
"Please get off the boat." The boat vibrated slightly, and the water god's clone said: "You two are the first guests of the Sleeping Land in tens of thousands of years.
"Is this called the Land of Sleep? I thought it was called the Holy Land again!" Cohen stepped onto the platform, turned around and asked the Water God clone, "Are you coming up too?"
"I can only bring you two here, but you can't go up." The Water God clone smiled and shook his head, "You two, please walk forward along the road. There will naturally be someone to receive you two by the stairs - if you go in the wrong direction,
But there’s nothing to entertain you!” The words were still ringing in his ears, but the water column that formed the water god’s avatar gradually blurred, and finally disappeared into the green lake water.
Cohen smiled slightly and turned around to face the pyramid, "Bai Ying, who do you think the owner of this place is?"
"It seems difficult to guess." Bai Ying tilted his head slightly, "In my knowledge, there should be no people with such powerful power, but what we encountered is real... I think, it should be
Wasn't he the one who made the passage for you during the battle in Tucheng?"
"The answer is right in front of us. I hope it is not far from what I have in mind, but no matter what, the owner here is worth meeting." Cohen nodded, his previous joking expression disappeared, and he said with emotion: "I want to
Meet him in the most formal way."
"The most formal way, at least wear a full formal suit. Isn't this what you always hate?"
Bai Ying looked at the man next to him in surprise, "What happened today? Did you suddenly change your gender?"
"It's not like what you think in your head - Cohen Keda only smiles at people when they ask for something. If I don't wear it on a regular basis, it's because I don't need to wear it, and the people I see are not worthy of me wearing formal clothes." Cohen
He smiled and replied, "Think about it! What I have in front of me now is a life with pride and self-respect. What reason do I have for not giving him the basic respect?"
"Speaking of it this way, it's hard to gain your respect! I'll try to see if magic can be used here. It depends on your luck..."
The space magic suddenly recovered. Looking at the set of clothes in his hand, Bai Ying replied angrily and funnyly, "Well, it can actually be done. Is it really strange? Magic can also bully people?"
Later, Bai Ying, who was extremely agile with his hands and feet, changed into a full set of emperor's formal clothes for Cohen. Even though it was just a set of clothes, it was far more complicated and complicated than most people imagined. Including swords and accessories, there were dozens of parts all over the body.
, Cohen has been emperor for so long, and he only wore it once on the day he ascended the throne.
The silver-white high-necked waist dress is dotted with two dense rows of blue jade buttons. On the left chest is a gemstone bouquet woven by Princess Qinlun herself. On the back is a long pure white cloak embroidered with silver thread.
Bearing the emblem of the Sibia Empire and the Keda family, a long black iron sword hangs at the waist, with the second half of the scabbard stretched backwards, lifting up a corner of the cloak.
Bai Ying connected Cohen's hairband with gentle hands, and separated two strands of black hair from in front of Cohen's ears, hanging down along his cheeks. He took two steps back to take a look, and finally nodded with satisfaction.
Cohen usually dressed very casually. Even when he was wearing aristocratic attire as Asa, he always had more wildness. But now this solemn and complicated costume subtly transformed this innate wildness.
The harmony has become a kind of domineering king, which makes him look down on the world just by standing majestically.
"That's enough, let's go." Cohen held a formal glove in one hand and pressed the hilt of the sword in the other, striding forward. Bai Ying packed up his things and followed him three steps behind.
They kept walking along the wide road, and after turning two or three turns, the two of them could already see the bottom stairs from a distance. But at this time, there was a man wearing a white robe sitting beside the bottom stairs.
As a person, she supported her head with one hand and fiddled with the blue light strip flowing down from the top of the pyramid with her other hand, letting the blue light continuously change shapes in her palm, and then slipped away from her fingers... For those who came from behind
The two people approaching didn't seem to care much.
To be continued...
