Far North, Powell Country.
Although the seasons on the western continent are already summer, it is still cold and snowy here, and the high sun does not conflict with the snowy ice fields.
Today, the sun finally came out, and the shining ice castle seemed to be glowing with five-color brilliance, which was regarded as a beautiful scenery on the snowy field.
From a distance, this ice castle looks like a crystal carved, extremely beautiful.
Every place is refracted in the sun with sparkling brilliance, dreamy and dazzling, and people can't help but wonder and get carried away.
People who see ice castles for the first time may not understand the structure of ice castles.
They will inevitably wonder - is such a big castle really made of ice and snow? If it is, how to keep it, how to live in it
When you take a closer look, you will find that the material for building the castle is still stone.
But it is also due to the cold climate of ice and snow in the extreme north, and the old king of the previous generation ordered people to pour ice water on the castle every day.
- The water flows down the castle continuously, and it freezes into ice before it reaches the bottom.
From a thin layer to a thick layer of ice, even if you slash it with a knife or a big sword, it will only leave shallow scratches, some ice chips will splash, and it will not split.
So that over the years, the castle has become the current ice castle.
The two slowly walked out of the ice castle at this time.
One was tall and handsome, with short black hair and deep blue eyes.
Those blue eyes are like the deepest color given by the ice field at night. Although the stars are adorned with the sky, they are also full of the cruelty of the ice field...
He is the king of Powell, Gena Cosmo.
Gena Cosmo wears a shirt made of animal skins.
Although it is not thin, it is not enough to withstand the severe cold in the extreme north, but seeing that this person does not tremble and shrink at all, you can also know that he must not be cold wearing this clothes.
The man next to him was wearing thick clothes and a plush cloak, wrapped tightly in the howling of the cold wind, only a strand of silver hair was slightly exposed between the cloaks.
—It was the Grand Duke Orville who came from afar.
Gena Cosmo personally took Orville to a clearing.
He whistled.
After a while, someone in the distance suddenly led a small group of snow wolves to run towards here, the snow foam flying, the hair flying, entangled in the wind and almost merged into one.
The group of snow wolves, led by the leader, stopped in front of Gena Cosmo and Orville.
There are about a dozen snow wolves, all of them are extremely sturdy, and their thick hairs fly softly in the air like a brush, and then fall down. When they shake, they can drop a lot of snow particles that have not yet melted.
Although the fur of snow wolves is mostly white, it is not pure white. There are gray or brown furs on their plush heads, ears, backs and even tails.
Snow wolves are nearly two meters long, with slender bodies and fluffy heads, which make them look cute.
The man who led Snow Wolf over gave Gena Cosmo a salute.
He muttered a few words in a relatively obscure language, then took off the backpack he was carrying, placed it respectfully in front of Gena Cosmo, then took two steps back and stood.
Gena Cosmo turned his head to look at Orville, and said in a low voice, in a slightly jerky tone, "This is the exchange of gifts."
Orville stepped forward.
He gently uncovered the cloth that was used to cover the basket, and what was inside suddenly appeared in front of him - it turned out to be a little snow wolf with milky humming.
About the size of an adult's palms, most of them have snow-white fur, only a little grayish fur on the tips of the ears and back.
The man who carried the little snow wolf was saying just now—this is the little snow wolf with the best fur in the wolf pack, and it is very likely that he will become the new snow wolf king when he grows up.
His expression was very sad.
But remembering that this was a deal between His Majesty and Grand Duke Archiayoli, he didn't say anything else...
Fortunately, the current Snow Wolf King is still young. If you find a few more female wolves, you should be able to give birth to a few wolf cubs. At that time, you may get a more "pure white" little snow wolf.
Orville's eyes softened without a trace when he saw Little Snow Wolf with his own eyes.
After that, he put his hand into the back basket, and the humming Little Snow Wolf immediately stopped when he noticed the unfamiliar aura and became vigilant—two ears were turned back sideways, revealing small fangs that were not yet fully grown, and gradually retreated in the air. A corner of the basket.
Orville was very patient, so he bent down slightly and stretched out his hands to wait.
His attitude undoubtedly made Gena Cosmo and Clifford the werewolf train a little slower.
Finally, the tightly huddled little milk wolf put away his tender teeth, slowly stuck his head out and sniffed the back of Orville's hand... After a long while, he hummed twice, and relaxed his limbs in the back basket and lay down.
Seeing this, Orville slowly stretched out his hand and straightened his body: "Your Majesty's conviction keeps promises."
Gena Cosmo: "Nature."
The deal between the territory of Akiyayoli and the country of Powell was that Orville agreed to Gena Cosmo's request and secretly sent knights to reinforce the soldiers of the country of Powell to repel the cavalry of the Saint Air Empire.
Orville's condition is a pure white young offspring of the Snow Wolf King.
The Snow Wolf King is the belief of the Powell Kingdom.
When Orville made such a request, Gena Cosmo did not immediately agree.
He had to figure out the purpose of the grand duke, why would he only want a snow wolf cub
What good would such a condition do to him? Will it be secretly...
Gena Cosmo said calmly at the time: "The country of Powell has never seen a snow wolf whose fur is pure white since it tamed the snow wolf and established the country."
"I'm afraid the conditions proposed by the Grand Duke..."
Orville said lightly: "It doesn't matter, as long as it is the descendant of the Snow Wolf King, I want to raise it."
"… "
Gena Cosmo carefully checked the grand duke's expression and attitude.
He could be absolutely sure of the authenticity of what the grand duke said afterward—if he wanted a snow wolf cub, he wanted to raise it.
Gena Cosmo recalls the mood at the time… words cannot describe it.
Now it seems that the grand duke's attitude towards raising wolf cubs is indeed extraordinary.
The deal is done.
The werewolf trainer Clifford once again led a small group of snow wolves to leave.
Orville personally carried the basket and followed Gena Cosmo back to the ice castle, and they had to discuss in detail.
Even if the fire is burning in the fireplace, the ice castle still looks cold and everywhere, there is no way to expel it, and it wanders around every corner.
Therefore, even when sitting in the study where the fire was lit, Orville did not take off the thick cloak he was wearing.
Gener Cosmo took off a coat, sat on a chair made of stone as if he could not feel the cold, and poured two glasses of wine for himself and Orville.
"Drinking can warm your body."
In Powell, snow wolves and wine are the most important things.
"Thank you." Orville took a sip, his body was indeed much warmer.
Gena Cosmo drank the yellowed wine in one gulp and put the glass on the table.
He immediately picked up a book next to him and turned to the last page, shook his head and sighed: "In order to eliminate the devil in the abyss, in the end the gods fell or fell asleep, and the remaining six life systems were only human race..."
The name on the cover of this book is "Story of the Gods 4" - it was serialized in the newspaper at the beginning, and when it was finished, all the chapters were integrated into a book, which was sold through the Chamber of Thorns.
Gena Cosmo has read the first three Gods stories, this is the fourth book, and he bought the books in person after reading the newspapers one after another.
In "Tales of the Gods 4", the devil dragged all the corpses on the battlefield into the dark abyss, and the dead bodies of various races regained life in the devil's blood-red pool.
- They no longer have sanity, and their already mutilated or dilapidated bodies still maintain the same appearance as before, plus a pair of completely black eyes that have no emotion at all, which is eerie and frightening.
They crawled out of the abyss at the behest of the devil, and came back again in fear and despair.
The giants have all died but are still driven by the devil after becoming corpses.
And countless corpses died on the battlefield, and they were even more painless after returning, they only knew that they obeyed the order and rushed forward...
Their presence makes the devil's army almost unbeatable.
The gods had to come again and personally lead the various races to fight back.
Seeing that the situation was gradually brought under control, the various races fought more and more bravely, but the Orcs betrayed and turned against each other, and the situation became worse again...
The wise and kind gnomes sacrificed first.
Immediately afterwards, the number of elves and mortals also shrank sharply. For the time being, the dragons used their powerful bodies to fight against the devils in the abyss, but they couldn't resist the devil's advance.
The steady stream of dead corpses means that the army of the devil will not be cut off.
Mei Weisi, the goddess of wisdom, felt that she could not continue like this.
She asked Griffith, the god of light, Ludwig, the god of war, and Nicola, the goddess of the earth, to cooperate with her to descend into the abyss and destroy the devil's blood pool.
- Coming to the abyss means that it will be corroded by demonic energy, and even the gods will be destroyed.
But for the peace of the continent, the gods agreed.
The final battle is coming.
- The smoke of gunpowder and the flames of war are flying, and the spreading blood almost dyes the earth and the sky red at the same time.
The entire race was dragged into the abyss to become nourishment, and the devil grew stronger again.
Among the gods, the weakest god of love, Hilary, was the first to fall, and the moon god Karis was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep...
When the blood-red pool was destroyed, the devil's army finally ushered in the end.
On the battlefield, the gods and dragons rushed to the forefront, followed by elves and mortals...
Just like what Gena Cosmo said - the gods either fell or fell asleep, and the dragons were few and far away, and finally flew away from the continent and disappeared.
The orcs, giants, elves, and gnomes were all wiped out, leaving only the humans living in every part of the continent.
Before falling asleep, Meiweisi, the goddess of wisdom, used all her divine power to pray to the God of Creation that the extinct race could continue.
The God of Creation descended the divine light in response to her prayer—the annihilated race was reborn among the human race.
Unlike the giants, the orcs were not lured by the devil, but were willing to fall, so they were reborn as animals or sick people.
The two races of giants and dwarfs are too tall and gigantic or short due to their obvious characteristics, but they will always be treated with gentleness and sincerity no matter what their appearance is.
…
The Tale of the Gods series of storybooks ends here.
Gena Cosmo slowly rubbed the cover of the book, looked at Orville, and said in a low voice, "Is Lord Desinia planning to write another story?"
Orville looked away from the little snow wolf who was on the edge of the basket: "I don't know."
Gena Cosmo: "The Grand Duke and Lord Desinia are allied, so it must be very easy to pass letters in peacetime, isn't it?"
"It's not difficult."
Orville lightly raised his eyes and looked at the deep-faced Gena Cosmo for a while, and then said, "I can ask you a question."
"…Thank you."
After speaking, the two of them were speechless at each other, only the little milk wolf hummed in the back basket, and fell back to the cushion after a while, standing unsteadily.
…
At this time, because 098 came back to give gifts, Xia Zuoyi found a reason and brought a group of fluffy people to the hidden mountain forest alone...
Then, he began to be stunned by the gift from 098.
098 happily waved the small hand of the match and said: [Host host, canine animals are here!]
"… "
In front of Xia Zuoyi was a half-sized white wolf—pure white without any variegation, ice blue eyes, full of cold and vigilant colors.
The sharp claws and teeth of the white wolf were sticking out, and at this moment, he was slightly lowering his body, threatening and preventing Xia Zoey and the fluffy ones from approaching like an enemy.
Behind the white wolf are two cubs.
One whimpered constantly at the feet of the white wolf, as if he was hungry.
The pup was chubby and chubby, with black hair from eyes and ears to the back of the tail, the rest of the hair was white, and light blue eyes.
The cub was sniffing the little nose and wanted to crawl from the feet of the white wolf to other places, but after leaving a little, he was immediately swept back by the long brush-like tail of the white wolf, and rolled on the spot, but he didn't care at all. Get up and hum.
Whatever Xia Zuoyi thinks... I think this fat cub is a... Husky.
The other, smaller cub was quieter, lying on the back of the white wolf.
The cub's big, fluffy tail fluttered from time to time, and the tip of his nose was half-buried between the overlapping forelimbs, revealing only a pair of round, dark eyes to observe in secret.
Xia Zuoyi: Well... a white fox.
So, here comes the question - a half-sized white wolf, two husky white foxes that are still cubs... How did 098 get these three different breeds together and bring them back? !
