Come to think of it, it's been quite a while since he visited one of the civilizations he created.

It wouldn't hurt to let this great guardian, who has lived through the cold winter his whole life, feel the gentle spring breeze.

After settling his bill at the Goethe Hotel, he went upstairs to the room that Cocolia had arranged for these extraterrestrial guests and locked the door from the inside.

With no one around, he vanished from the room in a flash.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland.

Fort Clipper.

Bronya had already left, and in the cold office, Cocolia was still working on the documents at hand.

But now, she had something on her mind.

After the Star Core incident, she became increasingly suspicious.

But the deity who truly removed the star core from Belloborg yesterday reminded her that the man who promised to give her a choice was His father.

She was a truly divine father, and even after searching through records left by people from seven hundred years ago, she could hardly imagine the immense power possessed by such a great deity.

His identity is mostly beyond question, but...

"But will He really keep His promise?"

A clear male voice rang out again, like a narrator, as if it had seen through her thoughts:

“Cocolia, the great guardian of Beloborg, hesitated. She had never seen spring with her own eyes, and to her, it was a beautiful but unfamiliar word.”

This time, Bai Yan did not restrain Cocolia's body.

She stood up, turned around, met his gaze, and frowned: "It's you?"

Cocolia recognized the black-haired, black-eyed visitor from outer space.

When he met the five extraterrestrial visitors this morning, he didn't even speak, leaving the conversation entirely to the gray-haired girl, so she didn't recognize his voice.

Bai Yan stood by the window, giving her a gentle smile: "A white lie is a wonderful spice in life, while a broken promise is muddy water in a murky stream."

He didn't explain his identity in much detail, but simply raised his hand and snapped his fingers crisply.

"Would a child who spends his/her life in the cold winter be willing to feel the gentle breeze of spring, listen to the chirping of insects in summer, and quietly appreciate the falling leaves of autumn?"

As the clear voice fell to the ground, everything around them became illusory.

As the original environment fades away, the new environment gradually solidifies in the illusory vision.

On the wide, lush green grass, the grass underfoot felt soft and moist, swaying gently in the breeze.

A faint fragrance of flowers wafts through the air, echoing the songs of birds in the distant woods. Butterflies flutter among the flowers, while busy bees flit among them.

The colorful flowers, like meticulously woven carpets, stretch as far as the eye can see, like a rainbow fallen from the sky to earth.

This was a scene that Cocolia had only read about in old documents.

Cocolia gazed at the dreamlike scene before her, lost in thought. Was it an illusion, or reality?

The spring sunshine shone on her face, warm but not scorching.

A gentle breeze caressed her body, cool but not cold.

These are all genuine feelings.

"Welcome to my group of children's civilized visit." The clear voice rang out again.

Cocolia came to her senses and saw the extraterrestrial visitor standing beside her.

The other person noticed her confusion and explained calmly, "Interstellar travel is a rare journey for many life forms, but for some life forms, it's just a step away."

Cocolia didn't say much. Suppressing her surprise, she squatted down and gently touched the tender grass shoots.

She picked up a handful of soil, letting it slowly slip through her fingers, feeling the moist and fertile earth.

She stood up and returned to the embrace of the spring breeze.

This beautiful scene before our eyes is the spring that the people of Belleburg have been longing for.

The arrival of hope allowed the people of Belloberg, hundreds of years later, to step into spring.

Today, people can only gaze into the future, lying in their coffins with regret and longing.

Are you only fixated on the scenery right in front of you?

Bai Yan's words helped her regain her composure.

He led her on a stroll through the springtime, as they walked along streams, through forests, and gazed upon the shimmering lake.

Birds that exist only in the history of Belleburg sing on the branches, and lively fish leap out of the lake without being hindered by the ice.

Bai Yan, with Cocolia by his side, finally stopped at a pavilion.

A slender woman with long ears walked out of the pavilion and knelt on one knee: "Father God, you have come."

This is the high priest of this civilization, and one of the few who would know Bai Yan's identity.

"Get up. I just came back to visit."

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

The high priest stood up, calmed himself down, and breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought that people had done something strange, or that some unavoidable disaster was about to strike, which was why the Father God had descended.

It is a great disgrace to draw the attention of God the Father because one is unable to resist disaster or deal with one's own problems.

When she saw the Father God just now, she broke out in a cold sweat and almost called those guys from the Disaster Observation Bureau.

The high priest stood up, bowed his head, and spoke humbly and respectfully: "Krus elves, your unworthy children, welcome to our arrival."

Let's leave our small talk here.

Bai Yan introduced Cocolia to him: "The woman next to me comes from a frozen world that has been shrouded in cold waves for more than seven hundred years. She is the leader of the last human civilization there."

The high priest humbly extended his hand to Cocolia: "Greetings, great leader of civilization."

"Hello."

Cocolia did not refuse and shook hands with him, but she struggled inwardly, wondering if she really deserved the word "great".

At the same time, she confirmed that the sensation in her hand was just as real.

The high priest who shook hands with Cocolia never liked to assume malice in others, let alone the leader of a struggling civilization.

She smiled gently and spoke again: "As the leader of the Winter Civilization, you bear the hope of civilization on your shoulders, and life grows tenaciously under your guidance. You show your strength in the face of disaster and protect civilization. I pay you my highest respect."

The High Priest's words were precious and full of respect.

But to Cocolia, these words were like sharp blades piercing her heart, stirring her soul.

Chapter 52 You really do crave my body

Bai Yan temporarily handed Cocolia over to the High Priest: "We won't be staying here for long, so you can take her around."

The high priest nodded in response: "I will obey the command of the Father God."

He then instructed Cocolia, "This civilization isn't too far from Arillo. If you can do it, you can persuade her to lend a helping hand to Beloborg in this short period of time."

The high priest smiled faintly: "Just as the Father God said, He never demands anything from us with absolute commands, so He will not command us to form an alliance with you. You need to convince me with your own beliefs."

As Cocolia was moved, Bai Yan added, "I advise you not to lie to her, because she can detect lies."

After saying that, Bai Yan turned and left.

He sensed the life coordinates of this civilization, and at the same time, he sensed the life coordinates aboard the Yalilo VI.

If there are any important matters that require the High Guardian's decision, he will take Cocolia back directly.

However, just as he said, he wouldn't let Cocolia stay here for too long.

He moved swiftly to another pavilion by the lake, opened the ancient door that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and softly called out to those inside:

"My dear assistant, how about coming out for some fresh air?"

An elegant, black-haired woman stepped out from the ancient doorway, her usually calm and refined face slightly furrowed.

She never cared about how Bai Yan addressed her, but she was a little unhappy about being suddenly interrupted during the experiment.

Bai Yan sat at the crystal table in the pavilion, picked up the teapot with exquisite carvings, and poured two cups of tea, a specialty of the Krus Elf civilization: "For Ms. Ruan Mei, who can awaken a planet, this task is not difficult."

He pushed one of the cups of tea toward Nguyen Mai, jokingly saying, "So I'll make it a little more difficult for you."

Since she had already been disturbed, Ruan Mei didn't mind pausing her research and sat down opposite him: "Even if I fail, you will still cover for me. Because you promised that little girl named Xi'er that you would let them see spring."

“But I also said ‘maybe’ at the time, and I also said that the decision was made by their Great Guardian.”

"So what do you think Cocolia will choose?"

Bai Yan laughed and said, "How would I know? Do you think I look like the Venerable Master Boshi?"

Ruan Mei's furrowed brows when she left had softened: "I suggest you don't make fun of the star gods worshipped by other forces."

Bai Yan remained unrepentant: "But I like to make silly jokes with the Masked Fool."

"as long as you are happy."

Ruan Mei stopped arguing with him, turned her head slightly, and admired the scenery in front of her.

It was springtime in the Krus Elf civilization, and the place was teeming with life.

Looking into the distance, you can also see a towering tree that reaches into the clouds, which is revered by the Krus elves as the World Tree.

The first male Krus and the first female Krus created by the Father God multiplied and gave birth to the Krus Elf civilization under the World Tree.

Looking to the side, there are technological buildings with a natural design aesthetic.

Based on these buildings, Nguyen Mai made a rough judgment that this civilization was already on the scale of an interstellar civilization.

Bai Yan continued the previous topic: "Have I told you the story of how I offended a Pure Beauty Knight by using the [Pure Beauty] Star God as a metaphor?"

"No."

Unlike Heita, Nguyen Mai was not interested in the anecdotes between the [Life] Star God and the [Pure Beauty] believers.

She immediately changed the subject: "Did you create this vast elven civilization?"
