Chapter 622
Chapter 622
"Fortunately, we don't have to ride the Earth Beast into the city anymore. Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Tibao." Bai'e had a relieved smile on his face. He looked at Tibao with gratitude and said sincerely.
Thinking back to the bumpy and "exciting" experience of riding the Earth Beast last time, Bai E couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
If Tibao had not arrived in time to open the Hundred Worlds Gate this time, they would probably have had to go through it all again.
Bai'e couldn't help but think of that picture in his mind: the huge earth beast was taking heavy steps, and each step made the ground tremble slightly. He and his group held on to the saddles tightly, swaying all the way forward on the rugged road, with the whistling wind and the heavy breathing of the earth beast in his ears... Just thinking about it made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Of course, this is just Bai'e's imagination.
After all, Lin Yu, Xing and Sanyueqi all have the ability to fly. If they really want to travel, they can arrive quickly by relying on their own abilities.
But as for Bai'e, no one has ever seen him fly, and everyone secretly speculates that he probably has no ability to fly.
So Lin Yu and his group did not use their flying ability.
"Don't be polite at this time. You have found a solution, right?" Tibao pinched her waist and stared at Bai E.
"To make a long story short, Oronis is unwilling to help us uncover the past of the City of the Blade, but for some reason, it has shown an interest in Xing."
"It...in some way...gave her this pet..." Bai'e said, then pointed at Mimi.
"Pet. Mimi--no!"
"(Mi Mi!)"
"According to Lin Yu, this creature is related to the gods from outer space and may be able to solve our problems." Bai E explained.
"Gods from outer space..." When Tibao heard this word, he subconsciously raised his head slowly and looked towards the vast sky, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
The power of the gods from outer space is very mysterious to them. If they can really make use of their related powers, perhaps they can really bring a turning point to their predicament.
"Teacher Tibao, I want to split the troops into two groups. I will leave immediately to Xuanfeng City to support Wandi, and the task of finding Nicardoli's weakness...Xing, can I ask you? This is a request from the bottom of my heart."
"I and Wan Di will be waiting for you on the battlefield."
"Take me with you, so I can share the pressure with you." San Yueqi's eyes lit up, he pointed at himself and said loudly to Bai E.
"Thank you. I have no reason to refuse."
"March...what's wrong with you?" Lin Yu looked at March 7 with a puzzled look on his face.
"You see... I haven't been of much help along the way, so..." Sanyueqi bit his lower lip slightly, "I just want to take this opportunity to make a big splash!"
"Fighting with gods is exciting, isn't it?" Her voice was full of anticipation and excitement.
"Don't worry, I will ensure my safety!" Sanyueqi patted her chest and said confidently, and the pair of little white rabbits jumped up and down with her movements.
"Okay, since this is what you want, I won't stop you. Just make sure you are safe." Lin Yu nodded and did not refuse.
"Then let's say goodbye here. Miss March Seven and I will go to Xuanfeng City immediately. Xing and Lin Yu will try to crack the secret of the Barbarian God's immortal body. As for Miss Xiadie..."
"I will stay with Xing and Lord Lin Yu to protect their safety."
"Please, Teacher Tibao, can I trouble you again?" Bai E looked at Tibao.
"Of course, leave the Hundred Realms Gate to us."
Afterwards, Tibao opened the Hundred Worlds Gate again and went to Xuanfeng City with Bai'e and Sanyueqi.
...
"Now we are the only ones left...where should we go to find the lost memories?" Xiadie asked.
"Here. Here! Memories, poems, collections!"
"(Mi Mi~)"
"Follow Mimi." Xing said.
Xiadie responded softly and followed Mimi with light steps.
Lin Yu followed Xiadie, looking focused and always paying attention to the movements around him.
Time passed quietly as everyone followed Mimi's figure through the streets and alleys of Ohma City.
The city was bustling with a dazzling array of shops on the streets and the cries of hawkers, making it very lively.
However, compared with Luofu, this place is less noisy and prosperous.
Xing couldn't help but think to himself, perhaps this is the difference brought about by the difference in population size.
A thought suddenly flashed through her mind: if all the civilians from the lower world could be brought here, would this city become even more lively? But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she frowned again.
If this is done, innocent civilians will be passively involved in this war between gods and face unknown dangers.
Not to mention that there are some "false gods" in the underworld, and their existence makes the situation even more complicated.
"Sir Lin Yu... why are you staring at my hair? Is there something?" Xiadie noticed Lin Yu's gaze and felt a hint of curiosity. She tilted her head to look at him.
"I'm just curious, why is there a butterfly flying around in your hair?"
Hearing this, Xiadie was slightly stunned, then patiently explained, "This is part of my ability. It can alert me to the dangers around me." As she spoke, she gently raised her hand, and the butterfly seemed to feel the call and landed on her fingertips. "Besides, it can also protect me in the first place." She looked at the butterfly with a hint of intimacy in her eyes.
"So that's how it is." Lin Yu nodded to show that he understood.
If it weren't for Xiadie's explanation, he would probably have been wondering secretly what special use this butterfly had.
Although Lin Yu had touched the butterfly when he was raising the earth beast, and the butterfly seemed to have a "death" effect, he himself was fine and there was nothing unusual in his body.
But at this moment, Xiadie felt a different kind of ripple in her heart.
She originally subconsciously thought that Lin Yu was staring at her rare purple hair. After all, in this world, people with purple hair are rare, and she has long been accustomed to other people's gazes on her because of her hair color.
But she found that Lin Yu was only concerned about the butterfly above his head, which made her laugh in silence, thinking that she seemed to have thought too much just now.
However, this little misunderstanding made the atmosphere between her and Lin Yu a little more relaxed.
As they were talking, a little child suddenly jumped out from the side and stood in Xiadie's way.
Xiadie was caught off guard and subconsciously took several steps back, staggering a little.
The butterfly above her head was also startled, flapping its wings rapidly and almost flying away.
Fortunately, the butterfly fluttered in the air for a few times and then landed steadily back into her hair without causing any accident.
Xiadie steadied herself and looked up at the child who suddenly appeared and blocked her way, her heart full of confusion.
"This gentle and elegant lady! Are you here to listen to Libo's singing too? Don't worry, I didn't mean to scare you." Seeing Xiadie take a few steps back, the child thought she was frightened by him, so he quickly waved his hands and explained seriously with an innocent smile on his face.
"Well...it's okay." Xiadie breathed a sigh of relief and her expression relaxed a little.
"Then... what do you want to hear? The love and affection of the ancient golden people... the turbulent times of the Golden War... the rise and fall of the hundreds of coastal nations... Libo has it all!" Libo suddenly became interested.
"Excuse me...is there any poem that describes the madness of Nicardoli and the secrets of Xuanfeng City hidden in the fog?" Xiadie leaned down slightly, staring at the girl named Libo.
"Madam, you have found the right person! There is such a poem in Libo's collection, which has never been heard by others. Well, let me recite it for you!" The child puffed out his chest, showed a proud expression on his face, and said confidently.
"The thousand-year war is drawing to a close, and the world is about to enter the long night of chaos. Brave and heroic Titan, why has your golden heart become shattered?"
"God, are you tired of strife? If so, how can you explain your violence, and how can you dispel the darkness that shrouds you?"
"God, have you forgotten your glory? If so, how can you protect your dignity? Where should your people who fear you go?"
This series of questions, like a surging wave, impacted everyone's thoughts.
They seemed to see those people who were looking for direction in confusion, wandering in awe and confusion of the gods.
"Oh, great Nicardoli... I understand, we all understand, your unyielding divinity is not dead, you are just temporarily entangled by the surging black tide!"
Libo's voice suddenly became excited, as if he was shouting for Nicardo and feeling indignant about its fate.
"But you never surrendered! You never fled from the battlefield. Your golden warrior soul will one day defeat the black tide and reshape the throne of Hanging Edge."
"Our God, our King, we have prepared a grand ceremony to support you in your eternal battle!"
"Please allow us to touch your soul with our humble fingers and weave a sword for you that contains divinity... It will grant you eternal life and store your eternal glory."
"Done. Memories, collected."
"(Mi Mi~)"
Hearing the sound of Mimi beside her, Xiadie turned around to look at Lin Yu and Xing.
I saw the two of them nodded slightly, with a hint of realization in their eyes.
Xiadie also realized something. So this is the way to collect poetry memories that Mimi mentioned?
By listening to poems related to Nicadori and the City of the Blade, you can gain memories hidden in the years.
Then she said to Libo in front of her, "Thank you, poet with a beautiful voice. Your poems will be sung forever and become a barrier to defend Ohma."
After hearing the compliment, Libo's face broke into a bright smile and she bowed gracefully to the three people. "Have a pleasant journey, ma'am!" Her voice was clear and crisp, carrying good wishes for the three people.
"(Mi Mi!)"
"Memory, Artisan! Collect!"
This sudden voice instantly brought everyone's thoughts back from being immersed in the afterglow of the poem.
"She's talking about craftsmen. Where are the craftsmen around here?" Lin Yu thought while explaining to Xiadie.
"Craftsman..." Xiadie muttered to herself, her eyes searching around subconsciously.
Suddenly, her eyes fixed on the blacksmith shop not far away.
Hattonus was standing steadily at the door of the blacksmith shop. Next to him was a blazing furnace, with sparks flashing in the air.
"The craftsman...Hatonus...I have heard of it making holy vessels for the city of Hanging Blade. Let's go over there."
"Xiadie...and...Stranger, what do you want from Hatonus?"
"I remember that you were invited by the Xuanfeng people to create a sacred object for them... I wonder if you can recall the details?" Xiadie bowed slightly, speaking respectfully.
"Well... there are hundreds and hundreds of magical weapons that I have created. It's impossible to remember them all."
"Apologies, help is hard for me to give." Hatonus shook his head.
"Indeed... the great craftsman has lived for too long. It is impossible for him to remember every commission he has handled. Is there any other way..." Xiadie whispered to herself, frowning slightly, and fell into deep thought.
"(Mi Mi!)"
"Mimi, there is a way! Help, buddy! Get the memories...back!"
Xiadie turned her head and looked at Mimi in confusion.
I saw Mimi's nimble little paws rubbing quickly in the air, accompanied by a flash of soft purple light, and a huge amethyst appeared out of thin air in front of it.
"(Mi Mi~)"
"Recollection, afterimage. Remnant of memory. Remains! Memories. The past!"
Then, Mimi pushed the crystal in front of Xing with great effort.
"(Mi Mi!)"
"Mimi...I won't hurt you. Touch...Believe!"
Xing looked at the glowing amethyst in front of her, took a deep breath, and slowly stretched out her hand.
The moment her fingertips touched the crystal, a current-like feeling spread throughout her body, followed by a dizziness.
However, this feeling did not repel her. Instead, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if her body instinctively accepted this power.
Then, two figures gradually emerged in front of Xing's eyes. Their shapes were like illusory souls, visible but intangible, and accompanied by clear voices, as if bringing Xing into a dusty history.
"How is it, great craftsman? Can you make the "Sword Dish" used to seal the divinity?"
"There is no object that my hammer cannot forge."
"Give me the finest stone from Hanging Blade City, and the golden blood of the Titan of Strife, and I will forge the sword."
"From what I've seen, you've agreed? What about the reward? We're asking you to create a stunning holy weapon... It's impossible not to pay you."
"The reward... is simple. Peace. For my people, the people of the mountain, to no longer be slaves or fighters of the city of Hanging Blade. Forever."
"I promise you, Master Craftsman."
After the person in front of Hattonus finished speaking, Mimi spoke again.
"That's it. Done. Memorize. Collect."
Then, Xing left this magical scene.
"Mr. Xing, are you okay? Just now... you entered the same state as Oronis." Xiadie looked at Xing with concern.
"I saw the memories of the Great Craftsman." Xing explained.
"Is this the ability of this little guy? It's really amazing. The power to spy on other people's memories sounds easy to abuse. Fortunately, you are the one who masters it." Xiadie said with emotion, turning his gaze to Mimi.
"(Mimi!)" Mimi called out happily a few times.
"What did it say again, Lord Xing?" Xiadie asked curiously.
"The memories have been collected, it's time to set off for Xuanfeng City!" Xing translated Mimi's words.
"Have you completed the preparations? Then we should go and meet up with Bai'e, Lord Wandi, and Miss March Seven."
"Please wait a moment. Before I leave...I want to confirm with Lord Aglaiya again." A trace of worry flashed in Xiadie's eyes, as if she was worried about something important.
Xiadie: {Lord Aglaiya, we have made all the preparations and are ready to go to the past of Xuanfeng City to find a way out.}
Aglaya: {Thank you for your hard work. I will also stabilize the political situation in the city and be ready to respond to you from afar.}
Aglaya: {There is no need to be restrained. Just act according to your heart, Die. We all trust you.}
Aglaia: {May Kephal enlighten our eyes.}
Xiadie read every message carefully, and the worry on her face eased a little. She raised her head and said to Xing and Lin Yu, "That's it, let's go."
Xing looked at the messages between Xiadie and Aglaiya on the phone, then looked up at Xiadie, "Are you afraid of Aglaiya?"
"Afraid? No...I just don't want to see her lost look." Xiadie shook her head.
"Lady Aglaya, her contribution to Ohma deserves more gratitude, but most people only remember her cold side." There was a hint of regret in Xiadie's tone, as if she was speaking up for Aglaya.
Xiadie realized that the topic seemed to have strayed from the present, so she shook her head again, "Now is not the time to talk about this... It's time to set off. I hope this little guy can help us restore the memory of Xuanfeng City."
"(Mi Mi~!)"
Mimi seemed to feel everyone's anticipation. She shouted happily and drew an arc in the air, showing off her lovely body, as if cheering for everyone who were about to set off.
