"That woman is acting strangely."
Upon hearing this, the old man also looked at the girl standing at the entrance. She stood there quietly with an indifferent expression, looking at them as if she were looking at dead people.
"What a piece of trash. If I had killed her in a battle against someone of the same level, I could have lived in her place. But instead, she prefers to bully the weak." A clear voice rang in their ears, and a chilling killing intent instantly enveloped them.
"Something's wrong, let's go!"
The old man wanted to take the boy away, but as soon as he took a step back, he found that there was a spatial turbulence behind him. The space they were in seemed to have been cut off, and as long as they left this area, they would be crushed and destroyed by the spatial turbulence.
"Since you enjoy bullying the weak so much, then let me show you what it's like."
"I haven't been physically active in a long time, so I hope you can provide me with some fun."
Nora took out the unfinished god-slaying weapon from her spatial ring, then reached into the void and forcefully pulled a book out of it.
If Elise were here, she would have discovered that the book Nora was holding was the Book of Souls.
Nora gently held the book in her hands, her sharp eyes softening and turning sad.
"haven't seen you for a long time……"
The Book of Souls ignited, and the flames gradually transformed into a stunningly beautiful blonde girl with blue eyes, floating behind Nora. The girl gazed at Nora with endless tenderness in her eyes, and then gently embraced her.
She tried to reach out and touch it, but her fingertips passed right through the blonde girl's phantom.
Nora gave a bitter smile, then looked up at the two of them again.
"Feel what... Elise's blade is."
Volume 1: Chapter 132 Sister, will we ever meet again?
In the endless ice plains, Elise, who was heading to her next destination, seemed to sense something, and her gaze unconsciously fell to the southwest.
There was only a vast expanse of pale ice over there, but she felt as if something was calling to her.
The maid sitting next to Elise noticed her actions and couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing." That feeling came and went quickly, fleeting in an instant.
However, she was certain it wasn't her imagination, but she remembered there shouldn't be anything in that direction.
It's strange, why did I suddenly have this feeling?
Elise withdrew her gaze, then took out an insect egg from her spatial ring and tossed it down.
Now, she leaves an insect egg wherever she goes because the communication network Wendy built is so useful. In this era without signal or cell phones, long-distance instant communication can only be achieved through large magical devices.
It could be done through some kind of complex magic, which is very troublesome. It is much simpler to build an insect nest relay station.
Even if the Queen of Insects revives, there may be unforeseen consequences, but Elise is confident that she can resolve this problem before the Queen of Insects revives.
Speaking of which, after she fell asleep last night, she once again felt a surge of faith power. She felt that if this continued for a while, the blessing of the Earth Goddess might advance to a higher level.
Could it be that the Earth Goddess was unable to receive the power of faith, so it transferred it to me?
That doesn't make sense either. Logically speaking, the Earth Goddess should be able to receive the power of faith, but she just can't respond to the believers.
So what about these powers of faith?
Just as Ellenlis was deep in thought, Ellenlis's voice rang out: "Ellenlis, it seems like the place you mentioned is just ahead."
Hearing her words, Elise also looked up and could see a pile of building ruins not far away.
It doesn't look very large; it's more like the ruins of a village.
Upon arriving at the village ruins, Elise jumped off the sled and lazily stretched her body.
Although there were cushions on the sled, she felt stiff after sitting on it all day.
Eve slowly walked to Elise's side and said, "I've been here before, but these ruins weren't here when I came."
"That's normal, because this area is somewhat special, and this site only appears on the day of the Blood Moon."
"But it's practically impossible to defend against raging magical beasts here, isn't it?"
“Trust me,” Elise said, and led the way into the ruins.
Eve was initially curious about what was so special about these ruins, but upon entering, she found only crumbling walls and nothing else remained.
Is it really okay to resist a beast tide in a place like this?
Although she had some doubts, seeing Elise's confident demeanor, she didn't think too much about it, after all, the other party had surprised her more than once.
"What preparations should we make now?" Elena moved closer to Iris. As an adventurer, she felt uneasy about these ruins.
"No need, let's rest for a bit and wait until it gets dark."
"Really?"
"You don't believe me?" Elise's eyes instantly turned aggrieved.
Having witnessed Elise's rapid change of expression, Elena smirked and quickly turned to check her surroundings.
With about an hour left before dark, Elise sat leisurely on a pebble, munching on dried meat, thinking that things would pass quickly.
As darkness fell and the red moon rose, the ferocious roars of magical beasts echoed around, and even the magical beasts bewitched by Iris began to stir.
Elena nervously moved closer to Iris, wary of any magical beasts that might suddenly appear.
But at that moment, everyone felt a strong tremor, followed by a moment of disorientation. When they came to their senses, they found themselves in a bustling town. The roars of the surrounding monsters had disappeared, and the monsters that had been charmed by Iris had all quieted down.
"What, what's going on?"
Elena stared blankly at the bustling scene around her. Just moments ago, it was a scene of ruins, but now it had transformed into a thriving town. There were even more people around, dressed very differently from them, and all of them were dressed in very thin clothing.
Everyone gathered around Elise without prior arrangement.
At this moment, Elise also said, "Don't be afraid. This area is just special and it's a re-enactment of ancient scenes."
“But those people seem to be able to see us.” Rumia had already noticed the curious looks from the people around her.
"Don't worry, just treat this place like an ordinary village."
As she spoke, Elise walked directly to the elderly man at the head of the group and then said in ancient language, "Hello, we are travelers passing through. May I ask what festival is being celebrated here?"
"Yes, this is our town's harvest festival. If you don't mind, why don't you sit down and have something to eat?"
"Okay, then we'll take our leave."
This conversation seemed to have been repeated countless times before. Elise then turned around and invited everyone to sit down.
On the table in front of them were various foods: roast meat, bread, thick soup...
Eve swallowed hard and asked softly, "Elise, is the food here edible?"
"Of course you can. Everything here is real. After you've eaten, you can go to the hotel for a shower, then get a good night's sleep and recharge for tomorrow's journey."
After saying that, Elise started eating slowly, tearing off a piece of roasted meat.
Seeing that Elise had already made her move, the others did not hesitate and began to join in as well.
Just then, a cute little girl cautiously approached, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Elise smiled and said, "Is there anything you'd like to say to us?"
"Grandpa told me you are travelers. Can I ask what the world outside the village is like?" The little girl's eyes sparkled with curiosity.
“The outside world…” Elise patiently chatted with the little girl. She had been through countless near-death experiences, and whenever she came to the Endless Ice Plains, she would come to this town to see it. She had experienced this scene countless times.
She told the little girl about the prosperity of the Magic City, the adventures in Starlight City, and the scenery of the Endless Ice Plains...
The little girl's big, adorable eyes were full of curiosity. She didn't get up and leave until her grandfather called out to her.
After walking a distance, the little girl seemed to remember something and suddenly turned back to look at Elise: "Sister, can we meet again?"
Volume 1: Chapter 133 Why do I feel like you're more anxious than I am?
"Of course, we will definitely meet again."
Elise responded to the little girl's question with a smile, but a hint of melancholy flashed in her eyes.
She had answered the same question countless times. At first, she came here for the special items, but gradually she came here more for her promise.
According to another m wing rise up to feed the witch and grab sr jiu dad QUN?
Upon receiving a positive response, the little girl smiled sweetly, then quickly walked over to Elise, handed her a sparkling little stone, and hurriedly ran to her grandfather's side.
After watching the little girl's figure disappear into the distance, Elise looked down at the small stone that the girl had given her.
The system thoughtfully labeled Elise with the name of the stone.
The Stone of Time
After use, it can rewind a small portion of time to one minute ago, and can only be used once a day.
It's a very useful item, and it's something that most builds in the game need to collect.
After putting away the Time Stone, Elise turned to the others and said, "Check if we have enough supplies. If not, we can replenish them in the village. We can't use our gold coins here, but we can barter."
Upon hearing Elise's words, Elena immediately got up and went to find someone to exchange for supplies.
Although they had only been out for a few days, she decided to stock up on more just to be on the safe side, since the space ring was large enough to hold them all.
Afterwards, Elise led everyone on a tour of the village. It was a very ordinary village, and the captain of the guards was only at the third rank. Apart from the Time Stone, a special item, there were no secrets here.
This is more like a supply point specifically prepared for players in the game.
There was an inn in the village, and everyone took a hot bath.
Eve could hardly believe that she would actually have a hot bath in the endless ice field.
And after taking a bath, there is a soft bed where she can sleep peacefully.
However, all the good things only lasted until the next day.
As the red moon set, the village, which had been like a paradise, was reduced to ruins once again. Elena, who had been sleeping peacefully in bed, was abruptly awakened by the cold.
Only then did I realize that I was lying in a pile of ruins.
She got up and looked around, only to find that Elise had already changed her clothes and was sitting quietly on a pile of ruins, gently swinging her legs.
Normally, she would definitely go up and say a few words, but at this moment, Elena noticed that Elise was in a low mood.
She recalled the little girl with eyes full of curiosity from last night.
She sighed softly and then began to change her clothes.
Hearing the noise behind her, Elise turned around and saw Elena, a smile appearing on her face: "How did you sleep last night?"
"It's alright, it would be best if I could sleep until I naturally wake up."
The contrast between the warm bed and the cold ruins is just too great.
She had just checked the supplies she had exchanged last night and found that they were all still in her spatial ring, and had not disappeared with the village.
It's just weird.
Just as everyone was preparing to set off again, Elise seemed to remember something, and then took out an exquisite red hair ribbon from her spatial ring and tied it to a withered tree nearby.
She forgot to return the gift to the little girl last night.
The red hairband stood out starkly against the backdrop of an endless, snow-white ice field.
Looking at the adorable butterfly knot, Iris smiled too, and then said, "Alright, let's set off."
"Is there anything special about our next stop?" Elena asked curiously.
"Of course, you'll find out when you get there."
Not only Elena, but everyone else was filled with anticipation. After all, they had just seen the village from the past, and naturally they were curious about where they would settle down next.
As Elise and her group walked away, the red hair ribbon that had been tied tightly suddenly came loose for some reason. Just as the ribbon was about to drift away in the wind, a hand suddenly grabbed it.
……
In an inn in a small town on the southwestern side of the kingdom.
Nora was jolted awake from her sleep, and the first thing she did upon waking was to look around warily.
When she found herself in a room, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes.
"Stop looking, you're not in danger now." A clear, ethereal voice rang in Nora's ears.
Upon hearing His voice, Nora's tense expression relaxed slightly, and she asked, "Have you dealt with the two people who attacked me?"
"Otherwise, I'll help you get some interest from them."
"What interest?"
