People in Terra, governing a bizarre little country

Ernst had no objection to this choice and promised Bozokastie that he could help settle his guerrilla group.

If they wish to continue working for Bozocas and become members of the guard, Ernst can arrange assessments for them. If they are tired of fighting, Ernst can also, to the best of his ability, help them legalize their status and send them to settle in the countries they wish to go.

It's not difficult; even if they want to stay in Columbia, Ernst has many ways to clear their names.

However, that is all a story for later.

As for Bozokasti's daughter, the girl named Yelena, Ernst could also help her register her household in Kjerag or Kazdelnia. Ernst could afford to offer that much.

After saying goodbye to Bozokastie, Ernst left the Sarkaz residents' committee room. He hadn't taken more than a few steps when a sudden clap of thunder rang out in the sky.

Ernst looked up at the sky with some surprise, but the thunder had vanished in an instant and was nowhere to be seen. There was no sign of rain in the sky; the sky was cloudless and clear.

That's strange. The weather in Shelag is usually quite stable, so it's rare to see thunder like this.

But no news came out about the Jeragund Stones, and Ernst didn't pay much attention to it.

Just minutes earlier, in Shelag, on an unnamed mountain peak, was the scene of a giant beast tea party.

The three of them, who had left Ernst's office, followed Gawain to this rather unremarkable hilltop.

There was little decoration on the hilltop: a few small stone tables, some fruit, a shelf with snacks, and a radio on one of the stone tables. That was all.

"Sister, what did that [Sami] want us to do here?"

After six years, he asked, somewhat bewildered.

Lu Ling glanced at her speechlessly, as if to say, "You're asking me this question?"

Didn't you arrive much earlier than me? Haven't you had any contact with Sami?

Perhaps feeling a little awkward under Ling's gaze, Nian finally realized what was happening and explained:

"This is where we gather."

"The behemoths that reside in Kjerag, or those that can visit Kjerag, gather here from time to time to exchange information. There is a barrier set up by Yeragand nearby that ordinary people cannot detect."

"I'm just curious, did [Sami] specifically call us over just to throw a welcome party for your sister?"

"What are you thinking?" Xi rolled her eyes. "How could [Sami] be so bored? Look, he didn't even throw us a welcome party when we came."

"It's open?" Nian asked in surprise.

Xi was taken aback: "No, I didn't attend any welcome party?"

“Because I didn’t call you.” Nian scratched his head and laughed. “Back then, weren’t you someone who didn’t want to talk to anyone and would shrink into the painting as soon as you arrived? When I came to find you, you told me to get lost, so I left.”

"You!" Xi gritted her teeth, wanting to say something, but the words stuck in her throat.

Because what she did that year seemed to be really fine; when she first arrived, she really didn't want to see anyone.

When Ernst came to see them, she was indifferent and unresponsive. It was only later that a cable car was built to take Ernst up the mountain.

After stammering for a while, she couldn't think of anything she could be angry about, so she could only shut her mouth in a huff.

Seeing this, Ling roughly understood what had happened, and reached out to rub Xi's head:

"Alright, alright, the past is the past, the present is the present. I'll call you next time, Xiaoxi."

"Xi is afraid of being isolated."

Nian approached with a grin, only to have Xi slap her face down:

"Who's afraid?!"

"Let's get down to business," Ling interrupted the two sisters' playful banter.

Xi blushed and glared at Nian, coughed twice, and then continued:

"He probably came for that reason, right?"

"If the three of us get together and unleash our power, what will it attract?"

Upon hearing this, Ling nodded in understanding.

"【Yearly Pomegranate·qUN: 85∠76~63442】!"

At this moment, the cold wind had already swept past them, stopped in front of the small table, and transformed into the form of [Sami].

The somewhat gaunt-faced "Erafia man" nodded at them, his voice carrying a hint of expectation:

"I've been in Shelag for quite some time now."

"Yelagand has great potential, but he is too young and his strength is still somewhat lacking."

"[Chronology] is too lazy. If He were to gather all the fragments and be resurrected, He might be a decent punching bag. But as He is now, He is not even as good as Jeragand."

“Gawain is unkillable, and fighting him is pointless. I’m more interested in you guys.”

"At a quarter of your age, just your gathering here allows me to feel that ancient atmosphere. That era is too far removed from now, and only in you can I still feel some nostalgia."

[Sami] paused, then smiled and shook his head:

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not a warmonger. It's just that as I get older, I inevitably become nostalgic. I miss things from the past."

"So, I've come to you."

Sami raised his hand, and a barrier of blizzard rose, enveloping the entire mountain peak, seemingly isolating it directly from the outside world. He proclaimed:

"Release the [Year Phase]."

"That's something that's been bothering you, isn't it? Let me help you get rid of it. I can also take this opportunity to reminisce about the past."

"We each get what we need."

Nian, Ling, and Xi exchanged glances, pondered for a moment, and then nodded.

Having come this far, having arrived in Sherag, they've decided to use the power of the giant beasts here to break free from the pull of the year.

They had nothing to hesitate about.

【Sami】is a colossal beast from the same era as 【Sui】, and He is willing to personally help them eliminate the Sui Xiang. This opportunity is once in a lifetime! They don't need to worry about whether 【Sami】can defeat 【Sui Xiang】, or whether 【Sui Xiang】will cause disasters to the surrounding area once it is released. If 【Sami】can't even handle such a thing, how can Sherag protect their entire family?

Moreover, it's only [Sami] who's made a move so far. Whether it's Yeragand or [Chronology], Ling doesn't think they're unaware of what's happening here.

They must be observing from the sidelines, which is why they haven't made a move yet!

Then there's nothing to be afraid of, come on.

Ling closed her eyes, and the mist swirled around her. The ethereal quality that should have been mysterious and profound now carried a hint of violence and destruction.

Nian raised its hand, and the power of [Form] swept across the sky. An unprecedentedly huge phantom condensed above the nameless mountain peak, with brown scales, a long and winding body, and a huge golden wheel behind it that seemed to give it a sacred aura. [Year Phase], the true form of the giant beast [Year] was revealed here.

His eyes opened, merging with the aura released by the command, becoming tinged with a violent intensity, yet still devoid of spirit.

Seeing this, Xi felt a chill run down her spine, and even her legs trembled slightly. But now that things had come to this, she couldn't back down. Gritting her teeth, she reached out, and an ink brush appeared in her hand. Her face full of fear, her legs trembling, the artist, who was about to leave, rose into the air, turned her head away, closed her eyes, and made the final stroke in the eyes of the [Yearning] figure.

The finishing touch!

The lifeless [Year Phase] came to life almost instantly, letting out a roar like muffled thunder!

Even a young tiger's roar in the forest can terrify all beasts, let alone the "Year Phase".

Xi almost fell over, landing hard on her backside and covering her ears. Nian, standing beside her, gritted her teeth in a somewhat troubled manner, her smile appearing strained. Only Ling remained composed, though her hand was slightly raised, as if preparing for something.

She has the ability to defeat the Year Phase. If something unexpected happens and [Sami]'s clone is not enough to defeat [Year Phase], she will join forces with him.

But she was obviously overthinking it.

The awakened [Year Phase] twisted its head, seemingly searching for the parts of [Year] that had awakened it. However, before it could even look at the three people, Nian Lingxi and the others, on the mountain peak below, its gaze was almost forcibly shifted to [Sami].

Sami silently gazed at the ancient shadow before him, and with just one glance, he let out a long sigh and raised his hand.

The next second, the illusory figure in front of them froze.

The power of [coldness]. Power itself is rule and concept; in other words, the [behemoth] is a god who wields the concept of a god.

Even a conceptual god like the Black Serpent, who exists only in the form of ideas, felt a chill when facing [Sami], let alone [Suixiang], who already possesses a physical form?

When He gets angry, He can freeze even things that, theoretically, no longer belong to any kind of matter, such as the "rootless flower" and the "collapsed body".

She withdrew her power. It seems she had worried unnecessarily.

However, she still asked with some surprise:

"Senior Sami, why didn't you just destroy it?"

[Sami] only froze [Year Phase], but did not directly destroy it. The former should be much more difficult than the latter.

Sami simply smiled at her four times, then raised her hand to her mouth. 30—

Just when Ling thought He was about to unleash some unprecedented power, He suddenly opened His mouth and proclaimed:

"Yeragand, devour this guy!"

Destroying it directly would be such a waste.

Jeragand was a promising young man whom He valued highly, but the growth of a behemoth is very slow. It would take Him a thousand or eight hundred years to slowly advance to the level two behemoth. But there are shortcuts to this.

In the Yan Kingdom, there is a legend that peaches of immortality and ginseng fruit can prolong life. It is also widely known that for a giant beast to grow to level two, it depends on its mastery of power.

Isn't that a coincidence? The [Year Phase] is entirely composed of the powers of giant beasts, and it's a rare power creation that can be perfectly integrated without conflict—after all, it itself was created from the power of a fragment of a level three giant beast—this thing is no less valuable than those elixirs in helping giant beasts understand how to master their own powers!

Capture this [Year Phase], refine it into a golden elixir, and help Yeragand increase his strength so that in the future, he can help Him fight against the demons of the endless ice plains. This is His true plan!

Now that the [Year Phase] has been captured, we're just waiting for Jeragand to come and claim it!

Witnessing Yeragand arrive with a bewildered expression, staring blankly at the small, frozen, compressed, and solidified ice block before swallowing it, and then, still bewildered, witnessing its body begin to emit a faint glow, Nian, Ling, and Xi also gaped in utter astonishment.

She considered herself a super gourmet who had traveled all over the world, but she had never seen anything like eating raw "Sui Xiang" (a type of herb).

She looked at Ling with a shocked expression: "Sis, can you eat that stuff?"

Ling shook his head, equally shocked: "Don't ask me, I've never seen anything like this before."

Only Xi hesitated for a moment, then pushed herself up to her feet, walked to Ya'er's side, and asked with trembling lips and some fear:

"Um... um..."

"The taste is actually alright," Ya'er replied awkwardly.

Xi pursed her lips.

What she really wanted to ask was if she was feeling unwell.

But this answer seems acceptable.

At least, after hearing this answer, she seemed less afraid.

Chapter 667 Kal'tsit: Gaa!

When Ernst saw Kelsey again, she didn't look well.

The dark circles under its eyes rivaled those of Theresis, and its pale complexion allowed it to blend into the snow of Shelag. The fur on its ears was also somewhat messy. If you didn't tell anyone, you wouldn't know whose panda it was.

"Kal'tsit, what happened to you—hey hey hey!"

Ernst was about to show her any concern when Kelsey slammed him against the wall with a thud. Her bloodshot eyes were fixed on Ernst's face, and her hot breath almost touched Ernst's neck.

"you you you!"

"What am I?"

“I, I, I!”

Kal'tsit's face flushed red with anxiety, looking as if she had something to say but couldn't. Ernst then realized what was happening, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"Oh~ You can't say it?"

Ernst gently tried to pry Kal'tsit's hand away, but found he couldn't. He tried a little harder, but still couldn't pry it away. Finally, he gave up and shrank back, getting out of Kal'tsit's "wall slam" zone.

Fortunately, Kal'tsit was relatively flat; if it were Vina or Horhyth, this maneuver would definitely not have been possible.

He coughed softly twice and said slowly:

"Let me guess, you mean [Prismus], right?"

Visibly, a hint of panic flashed across Kal'tsit's face, and she trembled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Ernst was very satisfied.

Hey, that's it! I just wanted to see that expression on your face!

That woman, Precys, put so much pressure on him all at once. During those few days in Colombia, he barely ate or slept, and all he could think about were these messy things from the pre-civilization era. It really wore him out.

Ernst was no saint, and besides, even saints have pressure, so they need to find someone to share the burden.

The most suitable candidate for the third position is naturally Kal'tsit.
