Since the Ruch giant god Moon Demon Fern left this world, the Moonlight Jungle has also disappeared.
It is said that he was brought to the true moon by the giant god.
Although the Moonlight Temple, which was originally at the edge of the Moonlight Jungle, is still there, it is just that the surrounding area has turned into an ordinary plain forest, and it has long lost the magical scene it once was.
Occasionally, there will be people who want to admire the miracles, or take a look at the place where the ancestor Alsini discovered the fern. Apart from a stone tablet erected there, there is basically nothing left; cities have sprung up in the wasteland, and the jungle has been cut into
There are small towns and villages everywhere, roads, railways and buzzing airships flying constantly in the sky.
But today, the Moonlight Temple, which has always seemed deserted, welcomed a group of guests.
They wear different divine robes, come from different places, countries and even races, and believe in different gods.
"Moon Witch?" The people in the Moonlight Temple didn't understand why these people were suddenly so concerned about the Moon Witch's situation.
"This is the supreme secret of the temple. I think everyone here can understand what the secret of the witch is to us." The visitor wants to know whether the Moon Witch was born, or whether the perfect one has been found.
Seeds, but of course they would not tell others about such a secret thing in the Moonlight Temple.
"The black storm above the sky is spreading faster and faster, and the unknown crystal wall is also being born. We must prepare in advance to go to the star realm. In the future, it may not only be us, but also the gods.
The main body of civilization is leaving together." The visitor explained the situation.
"But, what does this have to do with the Moon Witch?" The people in the Moonlight Temple still didn't understand.
The visitor explained the entire situation in detail without any concealment.
"For the star realm development plan, we found Mysir and Holios from the demon clan. The plan has been initially set. The god of adventure, Lei, will go to the world of Zhion to open the portal, and then Mysir will open it.
The astral passage, and the portals on the earth leading to the star realm will be affected, so the ideal situation is to open the portal on or near the True Moon."
"In order to achieve this goal, the power of the Moon Witch is particularly important."
"So I hope that your palace can join this star realm development plan. This is not just a matter of a certain country and force, it may be the future of the entire civilization, or even a matter of life and death."
After the visitors left, the problems they brought were not solved.
Discussions on this issue also broke out inside the Moonlight Temple.
"What should we do? Let alone the Moon Witch. We have been looking for so long and can't even find a suitable carrier." Of course, the Moonlight Temple did not dare to tell others this fact, although everyone knew that the Moonlight Temple did not have one.
Witch, but if she holds the Eye of Ruhe's Mark and cannot even give birth to a prophet, then the problem will be huge.
"Why?" Everyone scratched their heads and looked even more anxious.
"Among other servants who believe in the Titan, even if there is no witch, at least the blind prophet was born. It's just that the perfect receptor for the power of the Titan has not been found, but why can't we, why can't even the prophet be born?" This question has always been there.
They all troubled the people of the Moonlight Temple, and even made them doubt whether their beliefs were pious and whether they had been rejected by the giant god.
"There must be something wrong, but where does the problem lie?" Originally the problem was just an internal problem, but now the Moon Witch's problem has attracted everyone's attention, which means that the lid is about to be lifted.
Someone also raised a question that was raised a long time ago.
"Could it be that Her Highness the Witch has been born a long time ago, but we haven't found her yet, or that the power of the Witch has been occupied by a certain existence, so the seeds we find cannot carry the power of the Moon God."
"How is this possible?"
"If that's not the case, what other explanation could there be?"
Yes, it can't really be because they were rejected by the giant god, right?
Finally, the leader of the Moonlight Temple, who was dressed like a knight leader, stood up, looked at the others and said.
"Since we can't solve this problem internally, then maybe the problem appears externally."
"Let's just take advantage of this opportunity to look for it. Use all our power and let other forces help us find it."
"Even if we search the entire world, we must find Her Highness the Moon Witch or someone who can become a witch."
Nothing matters about face or shame, as long as there is a witch, everything is available.
Without the witch, the Moonlight Temple is nothing.
Next.
The Moonlight Temple sent a large number of investigators and Moonlight Knights, some to various countries on the giant island of Ruhe, and some to various places on another continent.
To investigate signs that may be related to the power of the Moon God.
-----------------------
Depart from Ruhe Island.
Passing through the Sea of Storms and crossing the vast ocean where the Sons of the Floating Sky often hang out, you can reach the land of Thousand Islands.
A long time ago this was an inaccessible place with only plants and animals.
But as batches of fleets from far away arrived here, these islands became the best docking places for the crews, and gradually formed one gathering area after another, and finally even towns and cities were established.
As the routes mature, some of the important islands here have become more and more prosperous, becoming hubs for maritime connections between the world and the Land of Dragons.
There is no country here.
Therefore, each small island is basically autonomous, but a loose alliance has recently been established.
There are various races from all over the land of Thousand Islands, such as snake people, winged people, lizard people and demon spirits. One of the small islands is very special. Its geographical location is close to the South Pole and is very remote.
Several islands around the island are frozen, and ice floes often float in the surrounding ocean.
It shows how cold it is here.
Not only is there no ice and snow on this island, but it is like spring all year round.
Its name is Naan Island.
Na'an means warmth in the snake language.
When they were children, Aya and her younger sister would go to the cinema on the island to watch movies after school. They would sneak in secretly and watch in the corner.
What is being played in the theater is the story of the Evel people who sailed away to establish a country on another continent. After reading it, Aya felt very confused because the people on Naan Island never leave here. They all seem to be particularly fond of home.
Aya: "Why do Aiweier people leave their hometown? If it were me, I wouldn't leave my home so far."
Sister: "Didn't I say at the beginning that their country was defeated by another country?"
Aya: "Ah, did you say anything?"
Sister: "Inside the first words."
Aya: "It's so easy to write it in words. I can just shoot it."
Sister: "That would be too long."
After watching the movie, Aya and her sister ran around the streets of the island and joked with each other. The streets on the island are connected in all directions and the buildings are very neat and beautiful.
There is a magical obelisk and an alchemy tower.
Rail cars come and go, and there are theaters, colleges, and a medical fort on the island.
You can see farmland everywhere in the distance, and the plants are very luxuriant. This is also the way for the residents of Naan Island to make a living.
Compared to fishing, the land of Thousand Islands is full of fishermen, and it is nothing rare or valuable.
On the contrary, food is particularly precious and valuable in the land of Thousand Islands. The warm environment of An Island, as well as the extremely fast-growing plants and some special extraordinary products, turn this remote and remote place into a paradise.
Although some travelers from far away wanted to investigate the reason, they were unable to learn the secret in the end.
It was getting dark.
Aya and her sister returned home while playing around. Unexpectedly, the house was full of people, as if something had happened.
When Aya entered the room, she saw some people dressed in simple clothes. One of them, an old woman, immediately turned to look at Aya and her sister, smiled warmly and nodded.
After a while, Aya realized what happened.
"The island owner of the previous generation passed away suddenly from illness just now."
"According to her guidance, one of Aya and her sister will choose to become the next generation of island owner."
Aya and her sister were taken to an antique building in the center of the island. It was a lantern-like building with strange vines wrapped around it.
When setting out at night, Aya saw the lights on the streets turned off and a strange light glowing in the sky.
The light seemed to be spreading from the lantern-like building, and it looked like countless fireflies flying in the sky. It was extremely beautiful.
this moment.
The plants on the entire island seemed to come alive.
They seemed to be moving, singing, and dancing with the special fluorescence.
Aya has grown up, and this is the first time she has seen such a scene.
Surrounded by everyone, Aya and her sister moved into that building. They felt very strange and a little uneasy.
And those people dressed in simple clothes were very respectful to the two and saluted them in every move. They were the waiters of the island owner.
Aya and her sister asked: "Why should we choose the island leader among us?"
The mother-in-law who brought them here said: "Because the previous generation of island owners said you can do it."
They asked again: "What is the owner of the island doing?"
The mother-in-law said: "The island owner is the one who protects Naan Island and has special powers."
Aya and her sister nodded, seeming to understand.
But what they didn't expect was that becoming an island owner also required learning, and they had to learn more than others, and it was more complicated than the knowledge taught in the academy.
They need to identify and understand various plants, including common crops, various plants that can be used as medicine, and plants that seem to have no use but are actually indispensable in the environment.
In addition, they also need to learn the history of Naan Island.
Aya: "It turns out that we were not the original inhabitants of the island, so where did we come from?"
The mother-in-law told Aya: "Of course, everyone here is not an aborigine. Only plants will grow in the soil on the island, not people."
"Whether it's the people on the island here or the lizard people in the land of dragons in the distance."
"We all came from another place and just ended up living here."
Aya thought of the movie she watched before: "The lizard people in the land of dragons also came from elsewhere, just like the Aiweier people migrated here?"
Sister: "What about the Land of Light? Where did those winged people come from?"
The mother-in-law told them: "They also migrated from other places. That place is called the giant island of Luhe, which is also known as the place where the gods originated. All species of wisdom came from there."
Of course Aya and her sister have heard of that place, the most prosperous place in the world, but they have never been there. Only occasional travelers or college books will tell about it.
But before, they basically didn’t watch or study seriously, and their children always didn’t like studying.
The mother-in-law continued: "Our ancestors on Na'an Island came from a place called Moonlight on the Ruhe Island. It is said that the moon used to be there."
Aya was shocked: "Moon?"
My sister pointed to the sky: "Is that the moon in the sky?"
Compared to a long time ago, the moon looks hazy now, as if it has a halo surrounding a lake.
The mother-in-law said: "Yes, it is said that the moon was originally on the ground, but one day she suddenly went to the sky and became what we see now."
Aya: "Why are we here?"
The mother-in-law told a story with twists and turns in the first half and a fantastic second half.
"A long time ago our ancestors came here by ship, wanting to go to the land of dragons to do business."
"However, at that time, the route from the giant island of Ruhe to the land of dragons and the polar regions was not completely perfect. Going to sea meant risking one's life and taking risks. Our ancestors were not lucky, and the ship they were on got lost in this sea area."
"However, the ship was lost and they were lucky enough to find the island."
"But when it was getting close, the ship unfortunately hit the rocks again, and finally the ship sank."
"But luckily some of them came to the island in a small boat."
"But after arriving on the island, they found that the island was covered with ice and snow, and there was nothing left. The only thing waiting for them was to starve to death in despair."
When her mother-in-law told the story, Aya and her sister kept exclaiming that the good fortune at one moment would turn into misfortune at the next moment.
"At this time, the first-generation island took the initiative to use the seal of the gods' will, and relied on the powerful power of the gods to turn the island into this appearance."
"It will always be like spring all year round, and the plants will always stay green and never wither."
"The first-generation island owner created a miracle and saved everyone on the ship."
Aya and her sister were very curious: "What is the chapter of God's will?"
When the mother-in-law told this story, she was also ready to tell the two of them some of the real secrets behind Naan Island.
The mother-in-law took Aya and the two to the highest point of the house, and carefully took out something packed in a box from the top of the "lantern house" where it was connected to the vines.
After the box was opened, there was a page of paper inside, but I didn't know what material it was made of. The surface of the paper was as smooth as a mirror.
There are glowing words on the paper, but they are not written on them.
When I looked closer, I found that the words were actually in sections, and they looked like they were pasted on by the roots of some kind of plant.
But at least two hundred years have passed, and the things that may be "some kind of plant roots" are still as if they were just picked. I just looked at the roots of the plant for a long time, and I don't know why I feel dizzy.
He even felt that his own will would be swallowed up, which gave rise to an inexplicable fear.
The mother-in-law immediately closed the box, preventing Aya and her sister from continuing to watch.
And Aya looked at her mother-in-law. It seemed that she had never looked at the contents of the box from the beginning.
Aya doesn't know why.
The mother-in-law said: "This is what the first generation of island owners left behind - the chapter of the gods' will."
My sister recalled the writing above, and it was obvious that it was not Snake Mandarin, or even any kind of writing known in the Second Age.
"Are there words on this?"
"Is it some kind of symbol or musical note?"
"But, what kind of person doesn't write with a pen, but uses such a strange thing instead of strokes?"
"What does the chapter in the chapter of God's Will mean? Is it the meaning of the article or the meaning of the music?"
Aya and her sister were very strange, but even her mother-in-law, who had served the previous island owner all her life, could not answer her doubts.
Aya recalled what the thing looked like: "What kind of letter does this seem to be?"
The mother-in-law said: "If I believe it, it feels a bit too forced, but the previous island owner also had this idea."
"It's just that the island owner guessed that it might not be a letter written to anyone."
Aya: "It's not written to humans, is it written to gods?"
The mother-in-law shook her head: "Perhaps it is not written to the gods, but... written to the world."
Aya was stunned: "A letter to the world?"
My sister also asked curiously: "Why?"
Mother-in-law: "Because it can replace the gods and issue orders to a part of the world."
Aya and her sister's eyes widened completely, as if they understood the true meaning of the name Chapter of God's Will.
The old man told Aya and her sister very seriously: "Although we never know which god it originated from, its power far exceeds our imagination, and even exceeds our imagination of gods.
"
"Actually, we don't know what it can do and what kind of power it really has."
"What is the purpose of creating its existence?"
"We are like a savage who climbed onto a magic crystal steamship, turning their turntable randomly, secretly using its power, and using our cognitive perspective to give it a value that we can understand.
name."
"I thought that the power we saw was all that it burst out. Maybe it was just a tiny bit of it, just like a savage broke off a mechanical handle, found that the light above his head turned on, and then cheered, thinking that this was
It’s all about this ship.”
Aya looked at the box: "Don't the gods who created it know about it? Don't they know that we are secretly using this power?"
The old man shook his head: "I don't know."
"Maybe I don't know, maybe I don't care."
--------------------------
long, long ago.
Two uninvited guests came to the headquarters of the Moonlight Temple, an invisible shadow being, and a strange big-headed dragonfly wearing a ring like a crown.
Just like a temple in a botanical garden, the corners are covered with ferns and vines cover the walls.
In the center of the fountain pool of the open-air temple stands a statue of the Moon God, and the surrounding tall walls are painted with the symbols and outlines of the seven Rukh giants.
Accompanied by music.
Strong fluorescence emitted from the pool, and fluorescent roots floated out of the water and surrounded the entire temple.
Dancers serving the gods performed sacrificial dances, tall bonfires were lit, and musicians played musical instruments.
The surrounding plants are changing.
The plants are growing wildly, the giant tree crowns lower their heads as if in greeting, and the water mist reflects the light hazily.
There are bright spots one after another floating in the air, and the scene is like a fairyland in the green fields.
All of this is the Moon God trying to please the "big-headed dragonfly" on the head of the statue.
"Big-headed Dragonfly" is very happy.
Late at night, when the ritual dance is over.
The "big-headed dragonfly" flapped its wings and flew to the shoulder of a figure in the pavilion.
God asked the proud "big-headed dragonfly": "Has your letter been written?"
A certain mythologist asked the "Big-headed Dragonfly" for instructions before, but the "Big-headed Dragonfly" seemed to be having so much fun that he forgot about it. More importantly, how should a Big-headed Dragonfly write a reply?
The "big-headed dragonfly" got into trouble, and then looked at the wriggling fluorescent vines in the pool. She pulled out the roots of the Moon Demon Fern one by one and pasted them on the letter. Finally, she had enough strokes.
.
A perfect masterpiece.
"Big Headed Dragonfly" is very satisfied.
But in the end, she found that when the letter was written, she found that there were no rainbow trees around, so there was no way to send it.
The "big-headed dragonfly" looked left and right, then threw the letter away impatiently and shouted directly with authority.
"Trefoils!"
"Go find the big lantern."
The sound came into another myth's dream, frightening it into waking up.
The Moon Demon Fern watched the letter fall into the pool.
The roots that had just been pulled out from her body were useless now, and they were pulled out in vain.
She didn't dare to say anything, and she didn't even dare to pick up the discarded letter, even showing a hint of distress.
And the letter floated into the canal with the ripples of the pool, floated into the distance with the canal, and finally converged into the river.
It then went down the river and finally fell into the hands of a man waiting for a boat on the shore.
