"Well, I'm still short of a cook, if you don't mind..."
"I don't mind! Thank you, Master Bai!"
Looking at the girl's lively expression, Li Xiaobai sighed silently in his heart.
"But let me make it clear in advance that I don't belong in this place and I can't always be with you."
"If I suddenly leave one day, promise me that you will not do meaningless and stupid things and live a good life. Do you understand?"
The girl was startled, then smiled sweetly: "I understand, Master Bai!"
"What's your name?"
"Qi... My name is Qiqi."
"Little guarantee?!"
"Ah? Sir Bai, what did you say?"
"No, nothing... I just remembered someone I knew..."
------------------
This is a mysterious island shrouded in endless darkness.
The black fog of decay and destruction is like a thick curtain, tightly wrapping the entire island, making it impossible to peek into the secrets within.
This thick fog seemed to have life, constantly rolling and surging, emitting a suffocating breath.
Shrouded in darkness, the island looked particularly eerie. The ancient trees withered and died, their branches stretched toward the sky like twisted hands, as if telling of the past glory and vicissitudes.
This is a place that cannot be reached by human technology. It seems to have been forgotten by the world and has existed since time immemorial.
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!
And today, it finally welcomed its own visitors.
Three dazzling streams of light of different colors came rushing from the distant and deep sky, like three lightning bolts cutting through the sky and falling from the sky at an astonishing speed.
The light dissipated, revealing a sturdy human figure inside and an azure timer on its chest.
It is the god that humans call - the Giant of Light.
These gods, who are omnipotent in the eyes of humans, now feel as if they are facing a formidable enemy when facing the dark land beneath them.
"Are you sure they disappeared in there?"
The red giant that was as dazzling as flames asked.
"Yes, they lost contact after entering the black fog just now."
The two companions confirmed.
The red giant looked cautious: "Such a strong dark aura..."
"It can't be delayed any longer."
"Let's go in, be careful!"
"Yes! Vice Captain!"
The light temporarily broke the darkness and opened a gap in the thick black fog. As the three giants of light entered the island, the black fog covered the gap again.
There is almost no decoration on the island except for the rotten trees, and the power of corruption is constantly eroding the bodies of several giants.
"Deputy Captain, be careful. This black fog seems to have the effect of cutting off telekinesis. I can only detect a range of about 100 meters now."
The lavender warrior said softly.
"How can there be such places on Earth, such darkness...Aren't they restricted by the will of the universe?"
“Maybe this is what it looks like after being restricted…”
The vice captain replied.
"Look..."
He sent a pure ball of light forward, illuminating the behemoth ahead.
It was an extremely dark and huge relic exuding a mysterious atmosphere, as if it had existed for countless years and might even be as old as the earth.
It is covered with dark totems and holes, emitting an ominous dark aura.
This relic stands there quietly like a sleeping giant, making people feel awe.
It is so huge that even the Giant of Light would feel small and insignificant standing before it.
The door of the ruins has been opened, revealing a hole as big as four or five giants of light, like an abyss.
"Who is this huge door for?"
The giants of light were in shock.
The purple giant felt the breath of his companions: "They went in."
The red giant ordered.
The ominous premonition in his heart gradually became stronger.
“This place gives me a bad feeling...”
"Once we find them, don't stay and leave here immediately."
Just as they were about to go in, the purple giant suddenly looked surprised.
"It's them, they're out!"
Several streams of light flew out from the ruins, and the familiar breath allowed him to immediately confirm the other party's identity.
"you..."
He walked towards the friend he was most familiar with, waved his arms, and wanted to give him a high five.
The next moment, he felt a sense of weightlessness.
The world was spinning, and a familiar yet unfamiliar purple body appeared in his vision.
"This body..."
"Yes..."
"I?"
As one last thought crossed his mind, his consciousness was shrouded in darkness.
Chapter 109 The city is broken
This is Blackwater City.
The outermost part of the Sora Alliance's rule.
As the outermost boundary of human activities, it is constantly threatened by various creatures in the wilderness.
It was not until the establishment of the alliance that the dilapidated city walls were reinforced and a branch of the Earth Defense Force was stationed here, and human safety was basically guaranteed.
However, it is only basic protection.
The city walls can only withstand ordinary beast tides, and are helpless when encountering legendary monsters.
Fortunately, there are giants here.
In short, thanks to the efforts of humans and giants, the city is gradually getting better.
The city wall separates the wilderness from humans, and the part where people gather inside is the entire Blackwater City.
Although it is called a city, it is actually a collection of scattered villages.
The poorest people in the alliance live here, rising with the sunrise and resting with the sunset.
And Youlian was born and raised here.
Today is her eleventh birthday.
Youlian has been sitting on the swing under the tree at the door in a daze since the afternoon.
She is waiting for her father.
His father was an old soldier, and it was said that he had fought in several battles with King Sulla in his youth. However, when King Sulla ascended the throne, he refused the opportunity to stay by his side and rise in status, and chose to stay in Blackwater for a farm girl.
So, she was born.
During the reign of King Sulla, my father could only go outside the city to hunt wild animals in exchange for living expenses. He narrowly escaped death and was covered with wounds.
But every time he woke up the next day, he would drag his heavy body out of the city.
By this time, most of his injuries had already healed.
And all this is because of her existence.
She was born with a gift called healing.
In the white light emitted from the hands, the wounds can heal at several times the speed.
This is also their family's unspoken little secret.
After the alliance was formed, the city organized the Earth Defense Force, and her father was chosen as the captain of the detachment because of his great prestige.
Things are getting better.
Youlian hummed the little tune her mother taught her, waiting for the tall man to appear in her sight.
She had long, flowing black hair, so pure in texture that no finest silk could compare to it.
When the wind blows, the long hair flutters, stirring the hearts of many young people.
As the sun sets, several elongated shadows appear on the horizon.
You Lian's eyes lit up, she waved her hands, and said in a clear voice: "Father!"
The tall man laughed heartily: "My dear daughter! Look who's here?"
The veterans nearby, who were wearing the same uniforms as the men, smiled and greeted.
Just as they were about to introduce themselves, they heard the girl in front of them calling out their names in a soft voice.
"I know, these uncles have been to our house before, and some of them even hugged me."
The veterans' eyes flashed with surprise: "She seemed unable to speak at the time, how could she remember things so early?"
"Don't you even look at whose daughter it is?"
The man puffed out his chest proudly.
"Brother, you can't give birth to such a smart daughter with your brain. I think it must be your sister-in-law's good genes."
"That's it!"
"Look, my sister-in-law is here."
"Sister-in-law is still as charming as ever."
"What do you mean by as beautiful as ever? She is obviously more beautiful than before!"
"You guys, I heard your voices from so far away, stop flattering me and come in."
The scene was very harmonious and laughter echoed above the house.
The uncles who had not met for a long time drank wine, and the mother held the father's ear with a smile, and everything seemed so beautiful.
Yes, it should be so beautiful...
The ground was shaking. The guards on duty looked out through the city wall and found several huge figures rushing towards the wall.
"There are monsters, and more than one!"
"What? It's a monster..."
The sleepy attendant rubbed his eyes.
"It's just a token of our appreciation. There will be giants to help us solve the problem anyway."
"Yeah, it's really rare."
However, as the monster's hideous body got closer and closer to the city wall, there was no sign of light in the sky.
