I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

Halding and Gers were Charlotte Linlin's childhood playmates in Elbaf.

Gels is a bit more special; she is a blonde giant loli who appears in BIGMOM's memories, but now, like Alyn, she has changed drastically and has a pair of legs that are nearly ten meters long.

As the saying goes, "the face reflects the heart." Although she had a different body, Ah Ling's true appearance was seven or eight parts similar to Charlotte Linlin in her youth.

However, Charlotte Linlin's appearance changed drastically throughout her life, from childhood to youth to old age.

She was a chubby child in childhood, a beautiful woman with a great figure in her youth, and an obese old witch in her old age.

The giants, including Gels, had only seen Charlotte Linlin in her childhood and Big Mom in the bounty posters, but few knew of her striking beauty in her youth.

So Geers didn't recognize Aling, and Aling only remembered her childhood best friend after the giants revealed Geers' name.

However, for some reason, she did not acknowledge him.

"Well then, Solar, I'll leave this matter to you." Sig waved goodbye to Solar and the others.

.................................................

The fleet split into two groups.

The giant Brogy found a place to hide the Dushan giant ship, while the giant Dorry sailed the Giant Warrior Pirates' ship back to Elbaf with the bandits.

The place where the ship docked was a coastal village of Elbaf warriors.

"Dongli, you're back?"

"Did you rush back especially for the winter solstice? The fasting period starts tomorrow." The giants in the village greeted Dongli with smiles as he returned.

The giant Dorry is a pirate, but in this martial country, pirate doesn't seem to be a dirty word. Ordinary villagers get along well with pirates, and many giant children even look at Dorry with admiration and worship.

Behind the giants, a group of bandits followed.

“Solar?” Stussy’s voice suddenly rang in Solar’s ​​ear.

She stood very close, her pale blue eyes fixed intently on Solal's face, as if trying to discern whether it was real or not, her expression carrying a hint of amusement.

"So, how many names do you actually have? Which one is the real one?"

"If you want to know my real name, then I'll tell you," Solar said casually in a low voice.

“My real name is Wang Sig Ma Rixiong Solar Yanzu.”

"Now you can call me Solar, or you can just call me Yanzu."

Stussy was speechless.

After mastering the Life Return technique, Sieg was able to fine-tune his appearance and physique. This time, he directly activated the Life Return Paper Drawing Martial Body form, controlling his body size to three meters, while also changing his appearance.

The giant village before us has a distinctly Nordic architectural style.

The main structure of the house is built of huge logs, with a gable roof and giant animal bone decorations on the walls. The style is simple and rugged, exuding a sense of wild power.

The giants walking on the streets were all very tall and strong, and even the ordinary villagers were mostly as thick-bodied as bears, carrying huge logs as they walked around.

The pirates of the Giant Warrior Pirates, on the other hand, were clad in armor, wearing horned helmets and carrying long-handled giant axes or warhammers on their backs.

When Sieg arrived in this village, it was as if he had entered an enlarged version of Whiterun from The Elder Scrolls.

To be precise, it's not a skyline style, but a Nordic style.

Giants, pirates, horned helmets, log houses with A-frame roofs, the World Tree piercing the clouds in the distance... Elbaf, The Elder Scrolls, and Dark Souls are all inspired by Norse mythology.

And Siegfried's current role as Solar, the Dark Souls Sun Knight, doesn't feel out of place here.

"There's wood everywhere, no wonder Charlotte Linlin could easily set it on fire."

As Sieg looked around, an old giant with a beard as long as a waterfall strode over from a distance.

Mountain Beard, the first captain of the Giant Warrior Pirates, is an elderly giant hero who is over four hundred years old and the oldest person in the entire country.

"Humans? Dongli, why did you bring back a group of humans this time? Are they your prisoners?" Shan Hu asked suspiciously.

"They're not prisoners, but human friends we met on the high seas," the giant Donley briefly introduced Solar and the others.

"The fasting officially starts tomorrow, so this isn't the time for sightseeing," Shan Hu Zi said, frowning.

The giants had to fast for 12 days, and if they encountered an enemy during this period, the problem could be quite serious.

Therefore, during this period, the giants are more sensitive and generally will not keep guests.

"Since you're Dongli's friends, I'll be blunt: you'd better leave now," Mountain Beard said sternly to Sig and the others.

"Since you are humans from the outside world, you must know the illustrious names of the Four Emperors Big Mom and Kaido of the Beasts!"

"They are the most dangerous and powerful pirates on the entire sea. Staying here will be a death sentence."

Although Shan Hu Zi was moved by the old lady's dream, he still remained somewhat wary of her.

"Two of the Four Emperors?"

Sieg was startled, his eyes filled with undisguised shock, but after a moment his gaze hardened again.

"I heard that the Winter Solstice Festival is a special festival for the giants to thank the sun, so I made a special trip here at this time."

"The sun doesn't lose its light just because it's winter."

"Therefore, I will not back down."

These words surprised Shan Hu Zi slightly. He finally looked at Sig directly, his gaze falling on the bright red sun on Sig's chest armor.

For the giants, the sun is an important faith, and the core of the entire winter solstice festival is the worship of the sun.

"You want to stay in Elbaf and participate in our winter solstice festival?" Mountain Beard's expression softened slightly, and he was about to change his mind, but then he suddenly remembered the events of fifty years ago, and his face darkened slightly again:

"But...not everyone has the right to thank the sun."

"Your name is Solar ( )? So what is the sun to you?" Mountain Beard asked.

"sun...."

Sieg raised his head and looked up at the distant sun. It was almost sunset, and the setting sun was about to leap into the sea. The golden sunlight shimmered in the waves, creating a scene of scattered gold.

“The sun is like a superhuman father, warming everything,” Sieg said.

"The sun is the father?" Shan Huzi was the first to hear this statement, and he glanced at Solal with some surprise.

He saw the man who called himself the Sun Knight gazing at the setting sun, golden sunlight falling on his shoulders, his long golden hair shining brightly, and his eyes filled with a determined light.

"I also want to be like the sun, warming all things and bringing endless light and heat to the world." The Sun Knight gazed at the sun, gently ruffled Sugar's hair beside him, and said slowly:

"I want to be like the sun, a father to everyone."

"Father? Didn't you want to become the sun?" Shan Hu Zi was a little confused.

“What I mean is that I want to become a priest (father), and of course, it also means the sun,” Sieg pressed the cross behind him and forced an explanation.

He meant to say "become the sun," but he misspoke just now.

Book Title: So What If I Encounter a Two-Dimensional Girl in 7 Days to Die?

Synopsis: Chen Yi, who transmigrated into the sandbox survival game "7 Days to Die," originally thought he would have to live a miserable life alone in this game world, chopping grass, cutting trees, mining, and fighting zombies every day, trying his best to survive.

But he discovered that it was an online game world, and everyone in it was anime-style cute girls...

Shiroi joins the game

Hmm... Spider-Girl is kind of a pretty girl, right...? Chen Yi thought, looking at the little white girl dancing the spider dance in front of him...

Kisara Tendo joins the game... Mumei, Asuna, Rikka Takarada... one after another, beautiful girls from different worlds enter this world every week.

However, the world of 7 Days to Die was not as simple as he had imagined...

Monsters from the girls' world have also entered this world... Gastrea, Kabaneri, the Zombie Lord from CSOL, and the Alien Beasts from Cataclysm, etc.

What he didn't expect was that all the beautiful girls who entered this world were players on their second playthrough!

Also known as "So what if I have a harem in the world of 7 Days to Die?" and "Why are all the beautiful girls in 7 Days to Die reborn players?"

P.S.: For those who haven't played 7 Days to Die, you can think of it as a real-life version of Minecraft.

Chapter 1187 Ah Ling's Meeting with Big Mom (6k)

Perhaps it was the impeccable smile on Sieg's face that moved Shan Huzi, aside from a momentary slip of the tongue.

"Is the sun the father? That's a strange idea, but he does have his own understanding of the sun's grace. He does seem like a devout clergyman, just like the nuns of yesteryear."

Just like Sister Carmelo many years ago, Sieg's gentle smile made these simple giants subconsciously lower their guard.

He nodded slowly.

"Yes, as a guest from abroad, you certainly have the right to thank the sun with us and participate in the celebration."

Shan Huzi also took the opportunity to introduce the festival activities.

Tomorrow, everyone in the village will gather together to eat "Samura," a secret dessert made by the giants. This high-calorie dessert will be key for the giants to survive their 12-day fast.

After eating the samla, a twelve-day fast will begin.

During this period, in order to reduce energy consumption, most of the giants would stay indoors and avoid going out.

If they can endure the 12-day fast, it will be the final celebration of the Winter Solstice Festival, during which the giants will enjoy caramel puff towers as dessert to celebrate the sun's rebirth.

Gudong.

Suddenly, several clear sounds of swallowing saliva rang out from the crowd.

"Samra~" The giantess Gers cupped her face in her hands, a faint blush rising on her cheeks, her eyes shining, and she almost drooled.

Gehrs is 77 years old, which is considered an adult for a giant, but her eyes light up when tempted by the delicious food, showing a completely girlish demeanor.

Ah Ling reacted in the same way as her.

"Caramel cream puff tart~" Ah Ling also cupped her face in her hands, her eyes shining, her longing was simply undisguised.

The two did not recognize each other, but the inexplicable attraction of being both foodies made them notice each other at first glance and develop feelings for one another.

"However, Dongli and the others came back too hastily; the village didn't prepare anything for you." Shan Huzi glanced at Dongli and the others.

The Giant Warrior Pirates are small, only about ten people, but these are brave and skilled warriors with huge appetites, generally larger than giants.

In addition, there are about a hundred bandits on Sig's side, so Shan Huzi felt that Samra's reserves were not enough.
