Chapter 212: Ice and Snow
Just relying on a secret technique of breaking armor, coupled with the terrifying power of the Behemoth, it highlights a miracle. Nothing can stop the attack of the Behemoth, not even the dragon.
There are various powerful monsters in the spirit world, but even in the spirit world, the Behemoth is one of the most powerful monsters, standing at the top of the food chain.
Feng Willow looked at the information in his hand, not only introducing the situation on the territory controlled by the Anerfa Empire, but also the general situation of the territory controlled by the other three empires in the spirit world.
In fact, the current Anerfa Empire is the smallest among the four empires in the spirit world, worse than the Viking Empire. Because of the sneak attack by the Snowland Empire in the early stage, the development progress in the spirit world fell short.
When the Viking Empire was developing the spirit world before, it had signed an alliance with the Behemoth clan. Even if the local losses were heavy, with the Behemoth, they kept the territory of the spirit world.
As long as they keep the territory of the spirit world, they can continuously obtain extraordinary resources. There is no shortage of sequence inheritance and extraordinary resources. With the foundation of the Viking Empire, as long as they keep a low profile for a few years, the subsequent personnel can keep up and their strength will recover quickly.
The covenant with the Behemoths also gave them time to recover. In fact, even if there was no covenant with the Behemoths, they should be able to persist for a few years with the foundation of the Viking Empire.
There is a god that is about to revive in the Anerfa Empire. Feng Willow does not believe that the Viking Empire, which is also one of the four major empires, will not have a god. Even if there is no god, there should be at least some similar foundation. However, Feng Willow could not guess what it is. If there is no such foundation, it would have been destroyed by the other three empires long ago.
After reading the information about the spirit world, Feng Willow asked General Inheim about some things he did not understand, and he had a certain understanding of the spirit world, at least he knew the territory of the Anerfa Empire in the spirit world.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time to set off for the spirit world now." Feng Willow put the information in his hand aside and said to Light VI.
The spirit world and this world are intertwined, and there is no specific entrance. As long as you have the strength, a sequence seven can generally break the boundary between the spirit world and the local area and enter the spirit world corresponding to the local position. However, the spirit world is dangerous, and the corresponding position after entering the spirit world is very important. If you enter the lair of some monsters or enter some special areas, you will die without knowing how you died.
It is easy to enter the spirit world from the local area, but it is not easy to return to the local area from the spirit world. To return to the local area from the spirit world, you need to pass through the boundary gate. The boundary gate is a space portal unique to the spirit world.
Some boundary gates lead to the human world, and some boundary gates lead to other areas of the spirit world. Before entering, there is no way to explore where the boundary gate leads to.
However, the boundary gate is fixed. As long as the location is tested, there will generally be no accidents. The Griffin Knights of the Anerfa Empire could not return to the local area in a short time because there was no boundary gate nearby at that time.
As long as the sequencers with sufficient strength understand the method of entering the spirit world, they can break the space barrier between the native land and the spirit world and enter the spirit world.
The positions of the native land and the spirit world are corresponding and fixed. After entering the spirit world at a certain position in the native land, they will enter the position corresponding to the native land.
This is also an important reason for each empire to develop the spirit world. At least there needs to be a safe place to enter the spirit world. In the area of the capital of the Anerfa Empire, it is safe to enter the spirit world. This area has been cleared by the Griffin Knights and there are no powerful monsters.
The method of entering the spirit world is just a use of one's own magic power. It is very simple. Feng Willow understood it after just one look.
Feng Willow stretched out his hand and shook the space in front of him, breaking the fragile space barrier between the native land and the spirit world and entering the spirit world.
He entered the spirit world directly in the palace. In the corresponding position of the spirit world, there is also a palace here. This was built by the Anerfa Empire in imitation of the palace. Not only the palace, but the entire capital, are all in the corresponding position and rebuilt in the spirit world.
There are no ordinary people who can enter the spirit world. The sequencers only build some buildings, and the speed will be very fast.
"Grand Duke Willow, this area is the boundary gate to return to the native land. Although the boundary gate is called the boundary gate, it is not a gate, but an area of broken space." General Inheim said respectfully.
The two had some minor conflicts before, but with the substantial improvement of Feng Willow's strength, General Inheim, as a qualified noble, has long put aside those minor grudges.
That's right, qualified nobles must know who can be offended and who cannot be offended. And the Grand Duke Feng Willow, who controls the plague, is now the person who cannot be offended in the entire empire. Even if you offend the emperor, you can't offend this person.
For many great nobles, offending the emperor is not necessarily dead, but if you offend the Grand Duke Feng Willow, there may be a large-scale plague in your territory, and after a plague, the whole family may die.
Following Inheim's introduction, Feng Willow came to the so-called gate area. From the outside, there was no way to tell that this area was any different from other places.
But only when you really stand here can you feel that the space barrier in this area is very weak. It is weaker than the space barrier that enters the spiritual world from the homeland. With a little force, you can break the space and return to the homeland.
Arriving at the Realm Gate, Feng Willow somewhat understood why Taris, Moriel, and Medusa's group had not been able to return to their homeland yet.
This realm gate is also hard to find!
There is no obvious difference. You can only rely on your own sensing. You can't sense it until you come to this area. Only when you reach the boundary gate can you sense it.
Then he sensed Moriel's position. Moriel had taken his alienation secret medicine. There was a soul connection between the two. They were not in the same world before. He could not sense Moriel's position. He could only determine it. Morrill is alive and well.
Now that he has entered the spirit world, this feeling is much clearer, and he can still sense the general direction of Moriel. However, this feeling is not strong either. It should be because the two sides are too far apart.
Although the spiritual world corresponds to the local world, its area is much larger. If we use an image metaphor, it is a ring, with the local world being the inner circle and the spiritual world being the outer circle.
Therefore, it is easy to go from the inside to the outside, but not easy to go from the outside to the inside. You will be restricted by the world, especially for powerful beings. The more powerful you are, the more difficult it is to enter the inner circle.
Even in the realm gate area, it is only relatively easy to enter the mainland. The stronger you are, the more difficult it will be to return to your homeland.
"Grand Duke Willow, the dragon nest we found is in the west of the royal city. It is far away and not easy to find. Let me take you there." Inheim said respectfully.
"Don't worry, during the last war with the Snow Empire, my dragon was pushed into the spirit world by using a secret treasure. I haven't been contacted yet. I need to find my dragon first. Then go to Dragon's Nest, the success rate will be much higher," Feng Willow said.
"It turns out that the last war was because the Grand Duke and your dragon were pushed into the spiritual world, which caused many nobles to misunderstand you. As a hero of the empire, you should not bear this misunderstanding. When I return to the empire , Make sure those who slander you know how much you have endured for the sake of the empire." General Inheim had a look of realization, as if he was not responsible for the so-called misunderstanding, and all the responsibilities were others.
No wonder you can become a general. Not to mention other things, just this empathetic expression that they have misunderstood you makes Feng Willow unable to see the slightest flaw.
Sure enough, politicians need stronger acting skills than actors. With Feng Willow's current strength, even if he knew that this guy was among the people who yelled at him before, he still couldn't see any flaws at this moment. That expression of feeling aggrieved for you definitely comes from the heart.
Feng Willow couldn't help but feel a little sick, and even more disgusted with these nobles.
Feng Willow was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore. He summoned the plague seven-headed snake and the fire crow, and rushed all the way to the north. According to his induction, Moriel was in this direction.
Riding the plague seven-headed snake, the fire crow explored the path in the sky. The environment in the spiritual world was not much different from the local environment, except that the concentration of magic power was higher and there were more various precious magic plants.
Feng Willow even saw the ruins of a huge city. According to the data, the ruins were the cities built by humans in the spiritual world in the previous era.
However, as the demonic tide receded, the spiritual world was disconnected from the mainland, and the environment in the spiritual world became harsh and no longer suitable for human survival. The humans who didn't have time to leave back then are all dead, and the prosperous cities back then have been turned into ruins.
Not to mention human cities, even the kingdoms of gods have fallen. I really don’t know how bad the environment in the spiritual world will be during those times when the spiritual world is separated from the mainland.
And in such a harsh environment, those powerful monsters can actually survive. The monsters that can survive in that harsh environment are all terrifyingly powerful.
The further north you go, the colder the climate becomes, and the snow remains all year round. Although the spiritual world is large, there are actually not many creatures in it. With the pressure of the seven-headed plague snake, ordinary monsters stay far away. He avoided it. Feng Willow did not encounter any danger along the way.
The north wind is howling, and the plague seven-headed snake is a little unable to bear it. In this environment, it is not suitable for scaly creatures to survive. Even though the Hydra has strong recovery capabilities, it consumes more and more energy every day. The external manifestation is that the Plague Hydra eats more and more.
However, in the spiritual world, there are few living creatures in this vast land. In this land of ice and snow, the living creatures are even rarer. They can only rely on the food brought in advance in the space of Feng Willow's Bronze Book to survive.
Also unadapted to this icy and snowy environment are monsters such as the Fire Crow, which is so powerful as the Fire Crow and the Plague Seven-Headed Serpent. The environment can no longer cause much harm to them, but the consumption is real. This kind of constant consumption requires them to resist the damage caused by the environment at all times.
It will quickly accelerate the loss of their body's energy. Even if they can absorb magic power from the air to replenish it, this consumption is far greater than the replenishment speed.
Feng Willow could only put the Fire Crow and the Plague Seven-Headed Serpent into the Bronze Book Space. Fortunately, his ghost ship was also in the Bronze Book Space, so there was no shortage of the corresponding living materials.
The snow was so thick that it covered his calves. Feng Willow walked much slower. He sensed Moril's position and found that it was still very far from his current position.
Feng Willow was a little worried now. He was not worried about Moril. After all, Moril was a frost dragon. In such an icy and snowy environment, it would not have any effect on her. Instead, it would make her stronger.
But his wife Taris was not like that. Although Taris's strength had reached the level of a griffin knight of Sequence 7, in such an environment, even a Plague Seven-Headed Serpent of Sequence 4 could not withstand it, let alone Taris of Sequence 7.
He didn't know how many supplies Taris and the others had brought when they were sent here. It had been such a long time. In such an environment, if there were not enough supplies, she might not be able to survive.
As for Medusa, perhaps she hibernated directly in this situation. She might even freeze to death in hibernation.
"I was wrong. I should have come to find her when I knew that Taris was sent to the spirit world." Feng Willow thought with regret.
Before coming to the spirit world, Feng Willow thought they should be very safe, after all, they were with the giant dragon Moril, who was the ceiling of the current world's combat power. Beings stronger than her could not survive without the full recovery of the magic tide, just like a fish without water.
Feng Willow got two wooden boards from the ghost ship to make a simple sled. Without a dog, he summoned a few zombies and skeleton soldiers to pull the sled.
Although this speed was much slower than that of the plague seven-headed hydra, it was much faster than walking by himself, and it was much more labor-saving.
The vast snowfield was endless, and Feng Willow could not even tell the direction, but he could sense Moril's location, which could be used as a coordinate, as long as he kept walking in this direction.
"Close, I can clearly sense her location, Moril is in that direction, I wonder how Taris is." Feng Willow, who was lying drowsily on the sled, suddenly sensed Moril's location. It was not just a sense, but Moril had become stronger again, giving back a huge force to his body. (End of this chapter)
