"Uh...Great Elder, why are you stopping us from looking for a way to open the crack?" Qian Feng asked in confusion.

We came to the right place. This group of Midnight Clan really knows what the rift is.

Qian Feng thought about it, but didn't understand why they would stop her from opening or even looking for the crack. She glanced at the girl who was eating next to her and smiled.

Sorry, Xiaoyun, because of me... I may have to stay in this weird world for a while.

"The crack... Actually, it was wrong for you to come out of that crack. The other side of the crack should be a crazy, chaotic world full of monsters." Kashiya recalled, and the other elders were also recalling the same thing.

"Monster..." Qian Feng murmured.

Is that the kind of monster...

Qian Feng thought of the monsters she often cleaned up. It seemed that... they were also from another world? They also came from... the cracks...

"Yes, it seems that you have come into contact with those monsters, right?" Kashiya saw the same thing in Qianfeng's eyes.

"Yes... those crazy monsters that only attack life everywhere come from the other side of the rift. We were also deeply harmed by them."

"Look over there." Kashiya pointed to the window next to her that Qianfeng hadn't noticed, and asked everyone to look there. Their group activity made me look up after tasting more than two plates of fruits.

What did they say? I was so busy eating that I didn't notice why they were looking over here.

It's not that I'm greedy, and their conversation has nothing to do with me, right? If I don't eat something that I've never seen before and put it here, do I have to wait for them to throw it away?

And it tastes super good!

Thank goodness I have a bottomless stomach that allows me to taste more of these sweet and sour juicy fruits.

"See it? That red disaster that hasn't receded yet." Kashiya directed us to look at the very conspicuous red cloud curtain on the horizon over there.

Under the black sky, the red color is so conspicuous.

"What is that..." I asked confusedly.

It should be the place where we stayed a few hours ago. I didn’t expect to see that place from this tree house. This big tree house is not only several times larger than other tree houses, but also much taller.

"That was the largest crack that appeared when the monsters appeared. Huge and terrifying monsters kept attacking there. All the places they invaded turned into wastelands without any life. It took us a long time to repel them and close the crack they opened." Kashiya's voice made the elders fall into deep thought.

Uh... So it was caused by a monster... So what monster are they talking about?

"Monster?" Is it the kind of monster that I have killed a lot of?

"Shh...eat yours, I'll tell you everything later." Qian Feng held my head and made me turn my attention back to the fruit on the table.

"Oh..." Now that I've mentioned this, how can I still be in the mood to eat...

So I changed to listening while eating.

"I am basically the only one who has experienced those things. Not many of these children know how serious the harm was. They only know that the land over there that has not yet fully recovered was damaged by those monsters." Kashiya called the other elders children.

No...you...they...uh...never mind, their age can't be determined from their appearance, tsk...

"No monsters came back after we closed it? How did you do that?" Qian Feng asked.

How did they manage to close the rift and prevent the monsters from coming out?

Qian Feng's impression was that the monsters would open a small crack each time, and then the crack would close by itself after passing through. They would just clean it up when they saw it, and there was no way to prevent them from appearing.

At least she didn't know it.

And ordinary people can't detect it... Well... every one of them here is an example. Everyone in the Polar Night Tribe can use the energy of the world. It is impossible for them to be unable to observe the existence of monsters like ordinary people over there.

"I won't tell you this because I'm afraid you will open the crack. We always thought that there was only a crazy world of monsters on the other side of the crack, but we didn't expect there was a more harmonious world like yours. I know you want to go back very much, but I can't open the crack for you." Kashiya talked freely, and the other elders still echoed her.

Qian Feng: "That's right, have you seen other people coming here through the cracks? Or other races?"

"No, you are the first people to come here in hundreds of years (authority translation)."

It seems that no one else from the emergency team has come.

Qian Feng: "Uh...Has anyone of you ever been to the world on the other side of the rift?"

Qian Feng's question made Kashiya silent for a while. She seemed to be thinking about something, struggling with her expression and trying not to say anything, but then she felt relieved.

"There was..."

"Ah?" Qian Feng was a little surprised. Isn't it a dangerous place? Why do they want to go there?

"The method to close the rift is in the world on the other side of the rift. Our previous great elder led almost all the elite warriors into that world. In the end, with the help of internal and external forces, we closed the rift, but they did not come back."

"Oh...I see...Sorry..." Qian Feng organized his words, not knowing what to say so that they could open the crack again.

What if the world on the other side is not hers, but still that monster's world?

She can help them deal with the monsters, and so can the girl next to her who likes sweets, but who will be responsible for the injured... What should she do if the girl next to her is injured...

"Ms. Qian Feng, I know you really want to go back, but unfortunately you can only find other ways to go back. During this period of time, you can live in our Polar Night Tribe. I will arrange a place for you to stay. As friendly guests, the Polar Night Tribe will not treat you unfairly." Qian Feng understood what Kashiya meant.

That is, they can live here forever, but they cannot try to break into the cracks, which means they cannot go back.

They said they would find other ways to go back, but is there really any other way to go back?

Before I knew it, I had almost finished the fruit plate. I turned to look at Qianfeng, and they seemed to have finished their conversation as well. I once again ignored what they were talking about.

It feels like nothing important.

"Xiao Yun... let's go. We're going to stay here for a while." Qian Feng stood up, patted my head, and asked me to follow her out of the tree house.

"Oh...well, we're not going back?" Didn't they tell us how we were going to get back?

"Hiss...you only know how to eat...what she said was that we can't go back!" Qian Feng suddenly pinched my face.

"Oh...stop pinching. Do you want to try it? It's very sweet." I took out two round fruits that looked like red apples and shook them in front of her.

This is the sweetest and most delicious thing in there, and I took out two.

"Tsk... Let me try it."

Chapter 128, Elytra

"Is that so... Lord Kamihara, are we going to live here forever?" Guo Wenbin asked.

Qian Feng briefly explained what Kashiya had said to the three members of the emergency team, which also helped me understand the general situation.

"Captain, please be more open-minded... maybe after a while the headquarters will find a way to get here and come find us..."

"......" Guo Wenbin was a little speechless at her optimistic attitude.

"Okay, the accommodation has been arranged. I'll take you there." Diya came back.

"Oh well."

"Well...we can't fly..." Guan Yuanyuan raised this key issue.

The Polar Night Tribe seems to live mostly in trees and rarely go down to the ground.

I couldn't see many buildings on the ground. There seemed to be only some small houses where they stored miscellaneous items. It could be said that everyone lived in the trees.

It is unclear whether the branches and vines on the trees were deliberately controlled by the Polar Night Clan or they were originally grown that way.

They are entangled with each other. This area seems to be the central residence of the Polar Night Clan. All the trees are connected starting from the branches.

Basically, you can walk to any tree house through the path formed by branches and vines, and there is almost no need to fly all the time.

But if you want to go down, you can only fly down by yourself. The Polar Night Tribe can fly, but they didn't design an elevator...

Although you can go to many places by relying on tree branches and vines, there are no roads to places farther away, so you need to fly there by yourself.

The place Diya was going now and her behavior clearly meant that she wanted us to fly and follow her.

As for me... I have Qianfeng's private plane, so I can go anywhere, but the three people behind me...

"I..."

"Oh! I forgot about this. Wait a moment." Diya interrupted Qian Feng before he finished speaking. Qian Feng probably wanted to take the three of them flying together.

"Does she have a way to make ordinary people fly..." I said to Qian Feng.

"Well... I'm afraid that's the case... After all, their place is not our place, how can you explain it scientifically..."

After a while, Diya flew back in a hurry.

"Here are these for you, one for each of you, Xiaoyun too, and Qianfeng...you take one too." She was carrying a woven basket filled with small balls made from some unknown plant. They looked like they were for children to play with.

Guo Wenbin and the other two didn't understand, but they still knew to take the things when they were handed to them.

"What is this?" Qian Feng asked curiously, holding the woven ball in his hand.

"This thing is called elytra (authority translation), and it is used for children in our tribe who have not yet learned to fly."

She stretched out her hand and tapped a protruding green vine on the elytra in Qianfeng's hand. Two vines popped out from the small ball and connected together, making it look like a necklace.

"Try it on."

"Oh oh..." The others followed suit and tapped it, and after it formed vines, they wore it around their necks.

"Om..."

There seemed to be a sound of something stirring in my ears. Inexplicably, I felt like some signal wanted to access my consciousness. It was a magical experience.

Looking at the others, they also had confused expressions on their faces. Guo Wenbin suddenly took off and then swung around in the air screaming.

I just noticed that a pair of elytra appeared behind me that were very similar to those of the Midnight Clan. It was this thing that just tried to connect to my consciousness. It would be better to say that it was waiting for me to connect to it and then give orders.

There are also some behind Qian Feng, and Guan Yuanyuan and Xia Ya, two ordinary people, also have them. Guo Wenbin has already flown away.

"It's made of branches and entwined vines from our mother tree (authority translation), combined with our tribe's special weaving techniques. It will give you the ability to fly temporarily," Diya explained.

I could feel that the wings on my back were just for show. The real situation was that the ball emitted a boundary energy that wrapped around my body and could carry me into the air at my command.

However, these functions are limited to being used only for flying.

"What is this..." Guo Wenbin was helped down from the air.

He probably just started experimenting with what this thing does, and then ordered it to start flying...

"Want me to teach you how to fly?"

"No, no, no...it's not that difficult." Controlling the elytra, I gradually left the ground.

Oh my god...why is it so...so cool?

I didn’t realize how much fun flying is. Actually... you’ll know how much fun it is once you fly.

"It seems like you've adapted quickly. Just follow me from now on." Diya flew up and motioned for us to follow her.

"Uh uh uh...Qian Feng!" This thing is so fun.

"Stop messing around and come here..." Qian Feng grabbed me while I was spinning and struggling, and forced me to follow Diya.

The three people behind him stumbled and managed to use it.

Various luminous plants illuminate the world. It has been a long time since we came here, but the sky here is always like a black curtain.

Without the sun and the moon, it seems that there is no day or night in this world.

It's a miracle that these plants can survive, and it's outrageous that they can grow into this glowing state.

Following the fluorescent films, we followed Diya to a huge lake.

There is a very small island approximately in the center of the lake, but on it there is a unique tree.

Most of the trees in the forest were growing taller like crazy. That big tree didn't grow too tall, but its crown grew into a big umbrella that covered the entire island.

The light source wrapped around the tree was also almost the brightest, shining like a small golden sun.

"That's the mother ball, a very important mother tree for our race." Diya pointed at it and introduced it to us.

So this is their central residence. Aren't you afraid that I will steal the cue ball by placing us here?

The lake branches out into several rivers that extend outward, continuously supplying water. The source of the small river that we followed from the small forest in the outer circle should be here.

If nothing unexpected happens, the widest river will be the one we follow.

There are the most tree houses in this area, and the branches and vines connecting them are more extensive, almost circling the lake, connecting all the trees, and also dividing them into three layers on the trees.

"This is it." Diya brought us to a platform where there were not many Polar Night People. Compared with the remote areas, there were much fewer people here.

"These are small rooms. You can pick one each. I will bring you some daily necessities later. Is that a man?" Diya pointed at Guo Wenbin.

"Me?" Guo Wenbin pointed at himself and was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, he is a male." Qian Feng said.
