Chapter 7 The Eve of Destruction

Following Vivian's narration, Xia Zhi's understanding of the Fairy Kingdom gradually unfolded like a scroll, gradually outlining a basic outline.

When people first hear the name "Fairyland", they may naturally associate it with the fairy tale kingdom and compare it to it, with towering castles, quiet forests and idyllic scenes emerging in their minds.

It seemed as if it was a place full of wonderful magic, a peaceful place without disturbance.

However, in fact——

The reality is not that beautiful.

According to the girl, fairies are pure creatures that have almost no concept of good and evil as people usually understand them. In the world of fairies, each individual carries their own unique mission or obsession, and their existence is to pursue these "purposes".

This means that in the eyes of the goblins, apart from their innate "destiny", anything else is unimportant and will not be taken seriously.

It sounds like nothing, and it reminds people of the image of free and carefree elves.

However, Xia Zhi still simply extracted the core points from Vivian's story - the fairies are self-centered, lack respect for rules, and are not bound by moral norms.

If this is the case, then it is not difficult to understand why the situation in the Fairy Kingdom is in dire straits and the diplomatic relations between the clans are in an extremely bad state.

——So, what about Vivian?
——And what about the fairies of the Rain Clan?

Does it follow the same rules?

Xia Zhi glanced at the girl across the table with interest, and after a moment of thought, he asked again: "Regarding the overall territory of the Fairy Kingdom...how big is it?"

"I can't give a definite answer to this question for now. The land of the Fairy Kingdom is constantly expanding..." Vivian pondered for a moment and replied, "Because fairies don't really disappear after their lives end. Instead, they become part of nature, such as soil, trees, rocks and other materials."

She continued to explain: "In the beginning, this piece of land was actually so small that it was almost negligible. As generations of fairies accumulated, their bodies merged with nature and piled up into mountains. After years of changes, it gradually evolved into today's British Isles..."

"Huh?! Wait! Britain?!" Xia Zhi keenly caught a key word.

As for the fairy's death setting, it should have been a very important piece of information. However, at this moment, compared with the name, its importance seemed to be forgotten in an instant and thrown aside for the time being.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

The girl tilted her head slightly, her golden twin ponytails swaying gently on both sides of her body, revealing a puzzled expression.

Kind of cute...

No, no, he quickly pulled his attention back to the question just now: "You mean, this is actually-British Island?"

"Yes." The girl said calmly.

"..."

"..."

Is this the Britain I know?

Xia Zhi already had a hunch in his heart. He recalled the place name "Onik" he had heard before. He originally thought it was just an insignificant coincidence, but now it seems that there may be a deeper connection and truth in it.

Is it really a parallel world?

He was silently pondering in his mind, and many thoughts surged in his mind like a tide.

"Is this also the Earth? I mean here - not the fairy country, nor the British island, but this entire world under our feet..." He wanted to make further confirmation.

This is the first time this person has asked questions in a row.

Vivian looked at him deeply and responded calmly, "You mean the planet under our feet? Indeed, it also has such a name."

——As expected!!

"So... outside of Britain, there are other territories or countries." Xia Zhi thought quickly, "Like France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and so on? Besides Europe, there is also Asia and America?"

He even imagined that those distant lands might not be ruled by humans, but by other fairy tribes of various forms, or even more fantastic fantasy races.

That’s right, at this moment Xia Zhi has subconsciously made all kinds of associations in his mind, constructing a grand picture of this parallel world.

Since it is based on the premise of a parallel world, it is not difficult to infer that this world must have a similar foundation, such as having the same planet, carrying the same territory, and the continents and regions reproduced like a mirror.

However, it is precisely on this seemingly identical foundation that the astonishing and unique differences arise, and these differences constitute the deviation value of the parallel world.

Imagine that in this parallel world, the Britain you know has been replaced by the mysterious fairy kingdom and has become the area where fairies live. So by extension, other geographical boundaries and countries may have also experienced similar magical changes?

Whether it’s continents, countries or regions…

These regions were no longer the familiar faces he knew, but were dominated by a myriad of fantasy races, shaping unique customs and historical contexts...

In this way, this parallel world seems to be covered with a shell like the earth, but its internal historical trajectory and development process are completely different. It can be said to be a variation version full of fantasy.

"not at all."

Vivian stared at him and spoke softly, her gentle words piercing through his turbulent thoughts.

"..."

"..."

"Eh?"

"Without the things you mentioned, there is only an endless void outside the borders of the British Isles..." The girl explained the reality concisely.

Xia Zhi frowned slightly, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind: Could it be that the fairies have only been living and multiplying on the British Isles for a long time, and have never crossed the ocean to explore the unknown land and world?
However, this speculation was quickly overturned by him before it was fully formed.

After all, not only did this group of fairies obviously possess extraordinary magical powers, but from earlier conversations with Vivian, it was confirmed that the fairies had some understanding of concepts such as the earth and planets.

Therefore, such a possibility can be ruled out.

"Blank?"

"Yes, it's completely blank. The entire surface has turned into a sea of nothingness." Vivian confirmed patiently without any impatience.

“Transform into…”

Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows and caught the key words again, "Can you understand that in the past, it was not a blank slate, but something happened that made it become like this."

"Yes." The girl's gaze stayed on him for a moment, and then moved away.

She did not hide it and said seriously: "But I can't tell you this secret yet."

"Oh, I understand, I understand..." Xia Zhi nodded in understanding. This probably involved the core secrets of the company. Unless he was determined to invest and become one of them, no matter how naive the other party was, he would not tell him so directly.

"It's your turn to ask questions..." He spread his hands, indicating that it was the girl's turn to ask questions.

"..."

"..."

There was silence.

Vivian frowned slightly, thought about it carefully, and didn't know what to ask for a moment. In the previous rotation, she had actually asked most of the things she wanted to know.

The most important thing is that this person really doesn't have too many secrets. Apart from the favor of time, he seems to be just an ordinary person - at least he is an ordinary person now.

After thinking for a while, Vivian was about to say something, but suddenly stopped and turned to look towards the door.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, the princess invites you."

A soft voice was heard, like the voice of little girls.

"Okay, I got it. I'll be right there." Vivian responded while looking across the table.

"Go ahead, go ahead. I'll wait here..." Xia Zhi waved his hand and made a goodbye gesture, "Don't worry, I won't wander around."

"..."

The girl pursed her lips and suddenly felt that this person would definitely wander around.

Vivian left for a while, and the room suddenly became empty. Xia Zhi casually glanced around and looked at the environment. To be honest, although this room was warm, it didn't have much of the feeling of a girl's boudoir.

There's not even any girlish style to be seen.

Very simple.

Very clean.

Neat and organized.

That's basically it. He pinched his chin and thought for a while. The tidiness of a room can reflect a person's attention to details and the way he handles things. Different levels of tidiness reflect different abilities and personality traits.

Recalling the psychology knowledge that he had studied but was also a bit outdated, he judged that Vivian should be the kind of person who is organized, self-disciplined and efficient, pays great attention to details, and has high requirements for an orderly environment.

That's why the room is so neat and tidy, and every item has its fixed place.

From this point of view, the "mission" she carries as a fairy may also be extraordinary, so she must have very high demands on herself.

Of course, this is not necessarily the case. After all, who knows what the psychology of a goblin is like? He is just making a tentative assessment and will not really take this conclusion as a fact. The specific situation still needs to be observed in person.

I stood up, went to the window, and looked at the sky outside for a while. The evening sky was still so magnificent.

The world tree named "Ash" stands at the end of the sky, like a huge canopy, supporting the entire sky.

Xia Zhi took out his cell phone again and looked at it. The time showed that it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xia Zhi sighed softly. He had noticed the problem before because the sky at dusk had not changed. He was a little worried that the time bug in his body might have spread to the world after he came here.

Fortunately, Vivian explained to him in time that the fairy kingdom only has dusk and night.

Moreover, Onyx, where the Rain Clan lives, is located at the northernmost tip of Britain. Not only is it poorer than other places, but it also rains most of the year and the weather is always gloomy.

Such dusk weather is actually very rare.

Most of the time, all you can see is a gray sky.

To some extent, this fairy kingdom really possesses many elements of a fairy tale kingdom, a world where even the daytime is always covered by dusk.

only……

It was dangerous, extremely dangerous. From his brief experience and Vivian's words, he had already vaguely sensed this.

Now that Vivian was summoned by the princess again, this point was further proved, because it was definitely caused by the aftermath of the previous library... The threat from other clans was so great that it was simply a chaotic world within a chaotic world.

It’s probably not easy to survive in this dangerous place.

Fortunately, I seem to have gained a passive skill for some reason, and it seems that only Vivian can see my existence and hear my voice.

If this passive ability is powerful enough and the effect is stable enough, then your own safety will be basically guaranteed and you don't need to worry too much.

Standing by the window, he thought seriously for a while, sorted out the current clues as much as possible, and summarized his current situation. Xia Zhi leisurely returned to the table and sat down, putting his mobile phone on the table.

The next moment, it was like falling into water.

The phone simply disappeared.

"..."

"..."

Xia Zhi stared at the table for a long time, then leaned back and looked down at it for a while. It was obviously a wooden table, carved from a single piece of wood, and the bottom was also solid.

Why did the phone fall in?
Where did it fall again?

He stretched out his hand and scooped it up casually, then his pupils contracted slightly, because his palm sank directly into the table, sinking directly from the surface, and half of his palm was swallowed up in the blink of an eye.

The cut surface appears very flat.

It was as if the table was an exquisite holographic phantom, or perhaps his palm was an exquisite holographic phantom, with no physical existence at all.

He stood up puzzledly, glanced at the chair he had just sat on, reached out his hand tentatively to touch it, and then... his palm went in again.

Then, as if his thoughts had changed, he found that the floor beneath his feet seemed to become unreal, and his body began to sink, as if he was a victim who accidentally fell into a quagmire.

…………

…………

Time: Unknown.

Location: A desolate Britain.

The silver-haired figure walked on the land like a queen, silently looking at the desolate and dead earth, and subconsciously tightened the staff in her hand.

After being summoned, she quickly discovered where this place was.

Britain.

The Britain she loved.

It was destroyed by a great disaster a long, long time ago. No matter what had existed here, it was all reduced to ashes, without even any remains left.

How can I accept this! How can I possibly accept this!!
His knuckles turned white from exerting so much force, but he seemed to have stepped on something. The silver-haired figure looked over, and in the thick dust that looked like snowflakes and ashes, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and an electronic device that shouldn't have existed revealed a dark display screen.

Staring at the dark screen, the queen-like figure smiled.

She found the right medium.

Thanks to that guy who had no vigilance at all, after summoning himself out, he just went to sleep without caring about anything.

As long as he could use tonight's time to analyze Chaldea's spirit particle transfer technology, he would be able to return to the past of this world and entrust all the information to "himself" in this world.

The Britain that I love so much...will never perish!
