Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Tartaglia received the news about Barnabas, the Ice Queen, from Wendy.

As the executor, he had an obligation to travel to the far north and see the current situation of the Ice Queen.

But no sooner had he "left the house" than Zhongli and the others arrived in the far north.

Tadalia: Take me with you, I haven't gotten on the bus yet!

The far north is not suitable for human survival. Even titled Douluo would feel the cold here, and the probability of an ordinary human surviving here is almost zero.

It's important to know that even the overpowered king ten thousand years later, at the quasi-Great Soul Master stage, relied on the remains of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm to survive in the far north.

If even the King of the Seas is like this, one can see just how low the temperature is in the far north.

"A vast expanse of white..."

To say that the far north is beautiful is pure nonsense.

All that exists here is a vast expanse of white, with constant wind and snow, and the environment is extremely harsh.

How can anything be beautiful in such an environment?

Of course, from another perspective, the far north is also beautiful.

This is untouched land, preserving its most pristine ecology—the beauty of its original state.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhongli and the others arrived at the core area of ​​the far north.

On the vast white snowfield, a palace stands tall.

This is the palace of the Ice Queen. Even without luxurious decorations, it is still quite extraordinary.

"Welcome everyone."

The moment everyone stepped into the palace, a gentle voice rang out.

The voice was crisp yet contained a hint of coldness, and also a hint of gentleness, indicating that the owner of the voice was an extremely "contradictory" god.

The Ice God was the most loving deity, but later, the Ice God stopped loving people...

The contradictions in the statements indicate that something significant has happened.

As the voice faded, a figure appeared before everyone's eyes.

Her eyes held tenderness, she wore a light blue dress, a crystal crown on her head, and her hair was styled in double spiral ponytails...

She is a gentle goddess, at least she looks extremely gentle at this moment.

"Morax, Barbatos, Balzeb, and... Traveler's Luminous and UFOs."

"It's nice to meet you. I am Barnabas, the Ice God."

That's right. As the Ice Goddess and one of the Seven Rulers of the Mortal World, this was indeed her first time meeting Zhong Li and the others.

Because she is not the first generation Ice Goddess, but the second generation Ice Goddess.

Whether it's Morax, Barbatos, or Balzebub, they are all much older than the second-generation Ice God.

Although Balzeb is also the second Thor, this is only in name; she can also be considered the first Thor!

These three are old acquaintances.

"What UFO?! I'm Paimon, Paimon!!"

Paimon argued that he was trying to correct Barnabas's linguistic error.

Everyone else was addressed correctly, but she was referred to as... an unidentified flying object!

hateful!

She stomped her foot in mid-air; she was angry!

"Okay, Paimon."

Barnabas nodded, but his face remained expressionless.

"This feels so perfunctory..."

Paimon couldn't help but complain upon seeing this.

This Ice Queen is being far too perfunctory with her...

However, the empress is quite beautiful.

"Hello, Barnabas." ×4

The crowd responded and took the opportunity to look Barnabas over.

This Ice Queen doesn't seem easy to get along with.

She's right, it was indeed the first time they had met, but that didn't prevent them from knowing each other's "real names".

"Please follow me, everyone."

Instead of directly asking Zhong Li and the others about their purpose, Barnabas led them to a place that resembled a restaurant.

Each person has their own table, not an eight-person table.

After everyone was seated, Barnabas spoke, "May I ask what brings you all here today?"

When she sensed Zhongli and the others, Barnabas was actually somewhat surprised.

Unexpectedly, these people also traveled from another time.

But she wasn't too surprised, because she was also on this continent at that moment.

Speaking of which, there was one unpleasant thing between Shifu and Inazuma: Shifu's executor was killed by General Raiden while Inazuma was on a mission...

Barnabas knew the reason for the matter very well, so she did not mention it.

This is entirely Rosalind's own problem and has little to do with this Thunder General.

"Miss Barnabas, don't be so cold."

Seeing the somewhat awkward atmosphere, Wendy pulled out some jars of liquor from somewhere, placed them on the table, and then continued, "Isn't it the New Year?"

"We've come to visit your colleague."

"Look, we even brought some fine wine!"

Upon hearing this, Barnabas paused slightly, looking somewhat bewildered, his eyes filled with confusion.

Chinese New Year?

Visiting a colleague?

Did you even bring fine wine?

They are all in charge of the seven earthly rulers, so it wouldn't be a problem to call them colleagues.

Since the Battle of Kanria, the seven gods have never crossed paths again. Except for the wind and rock, which have remained unchanged, the positions of the other gods have changed.

Barnabas was slightly uncomfortable with Wendy's enthusiasm.

This was the first time she had experienced something like this.

At this moment, Barnabas's behavior was almost identical to that of Morax when Venti first went to Liyue.

After a moment of silence, Barnabas finally came to his senses.

She stood up, said nothing, and walked towards the ice storage room next to her.

Paimon was somewhat puzzled by this.

"What is this Ice Queen trying to do?"

They are guests, and this Ice Queen is just leaving them hanging here?

Before anyone could say anything, Barnabas returned.

She was surrounded by many ice plates, on which were some fruits characteristic of the far north.

"Oh, so they went to get food..."

Paimon said quietly, "This Ice Queen is really hard to get along with, but she's also a very nice person."

They got things done without saying a word.

"This is all there is in the far north now. Please forgive any shortcomings in our hospitality."

With a casual wave of his hand, Barnabas used his icy blue divine power to make the floating ice platters land precisely on their respective tables.

Seeing this, Wendy smiled and distributed drinks to everyone.

He knew that there was no fine wine in the far north, so he had to bring his own!

Time passed, drinks were served in several rounds, and fruits were enjoyed in five different ways.

The relationships among the group gradually improved under the influence of the wine.

"Morax, you are the first god among us to cross over to this place, and also the most experienced god among us."

Do you think our time travel is a conspiracy by the laws of nature?

"She was severely injured by what happened five hundred years ago, rendering her powerless against the Seven Gods. Therefore, she transferred us all to control Teyvat..."

Barnabas said with a solemn expression, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion.

She has been in Douluo Continent for some time now, but she cannot find her way back.

Considering what she was planning to do, this line of thinking isn't unreasonable.

Paimon: "..."
