Looking at Lei Ze who was marking Famas's scent, Wendy felt a strange sense of crisis. After clenching her little fists, she stared at the two intimate people with a kind smile.
While Wendy was looking at Lei Ze, he also reached out and patted Famas on the shoulder.
Then, he said in an unskilled questioning tone: "Famas, Wendy, why are you here?"
Lei Ze spoke intermittently, like a stutter, but if you listen carefully, it feels different from a stutter.
It's more like a situation where you don't speak much, so you don't have enough control over your mouth muscles.
"We're here to play with you, Lei Ze."
Hearing the boy's question, Wendy stopped Famas who wanted to speak, blocked him behind her, and said to Lei Ze with a smile.
"Come to play with me?"
Lei Ze did not notice the inexplicable charm in Wendy's eyes, but said to the two of them quite seriously: "Black Wolf, it is dangerous to act recklessly."
From Lei Ze's intermittent explanation, Wendy learned that there is a group of black wolves that always come to Wolf Ridge to cause trouble. Although they are driven away by Lei Ze and the wolves every time, there are still fewer and fewer prey nearby.
, and it is becoming more and more dangerous. Even lone wolves who originally belonged to the running wolf leader are often attacked by black wolves.
In order for his family not to go hungry, Lei Ze would let the wolves eat first every time he hunted prey, preferring to go hungry himself.
Before dealing with those Qiuqiu people, Lei Ze drove away a group of black wolves.
"Hooo!"
Just as Lei Ze was talking to the two of them, a cold winter wind suddenly blew in the sky in the Running Wolf Territory, and then, a wolf howl that was more touching than any before reached Famas's ears.
Inside.
"A very familiar cry."
Famas nodded.
Lei Ze closed his eyes, and after quietly recalling the meaning of the roar, he slowly glanced at Famas.
"It's King Wolf... Boreas, he wants to see Famas."
Even though they were separated by an unknown distance, Famas still felt a sense of oppression when the roar sounded. It seemed as if an invisible giant wolf appeared in the sky, unleashing its power on the entire Wolf Territory.
Pressure.
Although Famas didn't understand the language of the wolves, he could hear the joy and complexity in the howls. Boreas...a familiar but strange name.
"Is it who I'm thinking of?"
Famas said to Wendy vaguely.
"Yes."
Wendy gave an accurate answer.
"However, I won't accompany you to see him."
Wendy blinked and showed a soft yet playful smile, "I still have the great responsibility of being [Mondstadt's most beloved bard]."
"You're not going to teach people how to write poetry, are you?"
Famas said helplessly, this guy ignores the responsibility of the God of Wind, but prefers to go around messing around with women, drinking and causing trouble.
However, what Famas didn't know was that in addition to teaching the residents of Mondstadt to write poetry, Wendy also had another important thing to do.
That is to remove the pattern painted on his belly by Famas.
Now, as soon as Wendy got close to Famas, she felt a burning sensation in her lower abdomen. The strange feeling stimulated him, and she couldn't help but want to hug the man in red in front of her.
"Hey."
Wendy's figure flickered in place for a few times, leaving an afterimage: "Although I don't know what happened, you two should hurry over."
The sound disappeared at the end of the running wolf collar.
"Anyway, let's go there first, we can't wait too long..."
Lei Ze watched Wendy go away and said intermittently.
Famas understood what Lei Ze meant. He didn't want to keep Lord Boreas waiting.
Lei Ze took him and ran towards the depths of the forest, where the wolves were most densely packed.
Although Lei Ze ran very fast, it would still take some effort to get there with just one pair of feet. Famas's feet left the ground, and the flames gathered under his feet and floated in front. He was about to take him with him
As Lei Ze moved forward, a small water slime suddenly appeared at Famas' feet and then exploded.
The clear liquid and the sticky slime gel directly extinguished the flames at Famas' feet.
"Eh?"
"Don't set fire in the forest..."
Lei Ze said blankly to Famas, and pulled Famas floating in the air with his hand.
Looking at the silver-haired boy, Famas nodded.
After more than half an hour of trekking through mountains and rivers, the three of them arrived at the end of Benlangling Mountain.
What appears in front of you is an area exuding coldness and deep blue light.
At the end of the forest surrounded by trees, there is a circular altar that clearly shows traces of man-made artifacts. It is well-preserved, except for the vines covering the altar, which show traces of time. The wolf head carving on the stone wall is so lifelike that it can be seen clearly.
From far away, you can feel the cold atmosphere and solemn divinity.
Above the circular altar, you can vaguely see the figures of some wolves.
The aloof wolves always bow their heads when facing this altar, appearing very pious.
"The Demon God of the North Wind, Andrius."
Famas sighed with emotion. He had met Andrius, the Demon God of the North Wind, a long time ago. Although the two were not good friends, they were not enemies either.
Andrius was one step ahead of him in resisting the tornado demon god Diekalapian, but the wolf-shaped demon god failed, and finally understood that the harsh north wind can only extinguish life, not nourish it. At the end of life
, it lets its power flow into this land and forever protects the earth and its inhabitants.
"What is the North Wind Demon God?"
Lei Ze lowered his head piously, and then looked at Famas.
"This is where Lord Boreas sleeps. The Altar of the North Wind and the wolves will offer it and worship it if they seek his help."
"Offer?"
"Boars, deer, birds, Lord Boreas, I like them."
What a greedy king wolf.
Thinking of this, Famas couldn't help but smile.
Now, Andrius has passed away, leaving only a remnant soul, the so-called [King Wolf] Boreas.
Famas's eyes moved away from the mural deep inside the altar, and instead looked at the bloody sword inserted in the center of the altar.
I have to say, this is quite strange. In the middle of the empty altar, there is actually a two-handed sword that exudes blood and sorrow.
The pitch-black sword hilt seemed to be made of the strongest obsidian, with patterns similar to those on the murals, like wolf heads. The cross-shaped sword grid and the blade above all showed a red color.
It's as if hot magma is flowing inside the sword.
There are several claw marks visible to the naked eye on the spine of the sword, as if it had been scratched severely by some creature with sharp claws.
Perhaps because no one has taken care of it for a long time, this sword is covered with thick dust and exudes a cold atmosphere.
But even so, the dust does not diminish its power and dominance at all.
It seems that just inserting it here is enough to drive away evil, suppress the mountains, and protect the surrounding mountains and forests to maintain peace forever.
Slowly walking towards the center of the altar, the originally calm and sunny sky was suddenly covered with a layer of frosty mist.
The mist spread with the wind, directly covering the entire surrounding altar.
Facing the sudden change, Famas looked indifferently and looked at the mural not far away.
At this time, dazzling ice crystals emerged from the pupils of the wolf head on the stone wall, as if it had gained life under the cover of this frost mist, and a stream of gravel-like ice and snow roared in the cold wind.
It is flying, almost tearing people's skin and causing blood to coagulate.
A huge wolf, tens of meters long, exuding cold air, slowly emerged from the mural.
The giant blue-eyed wolf's huge body emerged from the wind and snow, and the earth trembled.
The surrounding snowflakes are flying faster and faster, and the air is getting colder.
Lei Ze suddenly felt a little strange. [King Wolf of the North Wind] Lord Boreas, although there is always a biting cold wind when he appears, today, it seems to be colder.
Sure enough, it is worthy of the title of King Wolf and is quite imposing, but its body does not seem to be made of flesh and blood.
"You are alive, Lord of War."
When Famas carefully observed Boreas's strange translucent body, the latter opened his eyes slightly and spoke in a clear tone.
"Who are you now? The Demon God of the North Wind, or the Lord of the Running Wolf?"
Hearing the rolling sound of the giant blue-and-white wolf, Famas asked indifferently.
If it were the Demon God of the North Wind back then, Famas would still have to be wary of him. Now, although the king wolf of the running wolf leader is very powerful, in Famas's view, it is more like a bigger husky.<
/p>
"My physical body has long since disappeared, and this body is a reappearance of ice and wind."
"It's just a remnant soul. If you want to name me, I am Boreas."
Boreas said in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant. As a remnant soul, he did not have much memory, but he also knew that the demon in front of him was the war lord who once dominated the continent of Teyvat.
But that's all. Boreas, who has lost his divine power, has even forgotten most of the past events.
"The former Demon God of the North Wind has fallen into this state..."
Famas sighed softly.
"I don't think this is degradation. Compared to Mondstadt, which is shrouded in ice, snow and strong winds, and Teyvat, which has been at war for years, the free wind god has done far better than us."
Boreas tried his best to speak to Famas in a persuasive tone.
In his only memory, this war lord was defeated by another demon. Now that he wakes up again, he will definitely start a war again.
"Lord Boreas, the devil, war...what is it."
Lei Ze, who was inexperienced in the world, listened in a daze to the conversation between the Lord of Runlang and Famas. Although he had no idea what they were talking about, his new friend Famas, who he had just met, was obviously related to King Wolf Borea.
Mr. Si is acquainted.
"Why are you staying here alone? Are you trapped?"
Famas turned around and glanced at the sword that was deeply inserted into the altar.
"No, I volunteer to protect this place and protect the glory of the north wind."
"The owner of this sword and I had a tacit understanding at that time, advancing and retreating in unison, as if we were one body, but that was all a long time ago."
Boreas explains to Phamas.
"Ah... If you put it that way, I think I know who it is."
After hearing this sigh, Famas slapped his head suddenly, and then remembered the story he had heard.
The story about the legendary Knight of the North Wind.
Although the "Knight of the North Wind" is one of the Guardians of the Four Winds of Mondstadt, he is not a local resident.
No one knows where he comes from, and he never explains his origins to others, but everyone knows that he is a reliable man.
One thing that is very special is that when this powerful knight goes out to hunt demons, there is always a giant wolf following him.
One person and one wolf are inseparable, like the best partners in the world, but the lifespan of a wolf is never as long as the spirit of all living things.
Not long after, the giant wolf's lifespan was over. The knight used his usual sword as a tombstone and buried it in the wilderness far away from the city. Then the knight embarked on a wandering journey again, never to be seen again...
.
Although he is not very interested in knights, Famas really likes this story.
After all, one person and one wolf depend on each other for life, which is simply a man's romance.
There is no doubt that the depths of the Running Wolf Territory are the habitat of the wolf spirit beside the North Wind Knight. The so-called wolf spirit is the demon god who was beaten into a residual soul after failing to challenge the tornado and lost his memory.
The North Wind Demon Andrius is now the Wolf Lord Boreas.
The big sword in the altar is the weapon used by the legendary North Wind Knight, and is called the "Wolf's End" sword.
As time goes by, nothing can escape [wear and tear]. Except for the demon god who fled to the dark sea, under the sky of the false sky of Teyvat, even the demon god who was once invincible in the world cannot escape the fate of extinction.
Just when Boreas was distracted, Famas spread his hands flat, and golden divine power condensed on his hands. This divine power was more dazzling than the sun in the sky, and the sacred breath directly dispersed the energy in the North Wind Altar.
Chill.
A large piece of dark golden crystal that reflected sunlight slowly floated in front of Boreas and blended directly into his body.
"Hey, why help me..."
Boreas let out a roar of pleasure. Under the influence of divine power, his body quickly solidified. His fur made of ice and wind shone even brighter, and the breath of ice wind on his sharp claws became stronger.
The claws can cut through the elements in the air.
In Boreas's thinking, divine power is a non-renewable thing, and the Seven Gods can only obtain divine power by governing their territories. However, the once cruel and cruel war lord in front of him was actually willing to give precious divine power to himself. Famas took a deep breath and was about to explain his motives seriously when he suddenly noticed the furry Lei Ze next to him, who was seriously looking at Boreas, who was getting stronger, with an envious expression on his face.
"I don't care about anything, I'm just rich and I just play."
Reaching out his hand and touching Lei Ze's silver hair, Famas, who was full of divine aura, spoke to the confused Wolf King in a funny tone.
After hearing Famas's words and feeling the temperature on his head, Lei Ze turned his head in surprise and saw an unforgettable scene.
Time seems to be slowed down, and everything around it becomes slow motion frame by frame.
A golden rain seemed to fall in the sky, and Famasi's evil-smiling face slowly turned around. His fiery red hair mixed with white hair flew in the wind, his smile was bright, and the surrounding light and shadow turned into clear lines, outlining a sacred
He has a sense of handsomeness, and his golden-red eyes radiate soft light with every blink of his eyelids, but the loneliness that cannot be hidden in his eyes makes Lei Ze feel like he has found someone of his own kind.
My heartbeat seems to have skipped a beat.
"Thank you..."
Boreas made a low voice, and then looked at the meek Lei Ze.
Why do you feel that there is something wrong with the character of this war lord?
