Chapter 1162 - 855: Life Forbidden Zone of the Polar Region
With that super strong storm protection, to say the least, it would be very difficult for creatures to chase in droves, right?
Various phenomena have already shown that it was the creatures that destroyed the Ancient Magic Civilization. Since that’s the case, naturally, humans from the Ancient Magic Civilization would find ways to prevent creatures from chasing the embers of refuge into the Hidden Land.
Therefore, that super strong storm might indeed have been created by some kind of super magic technology from the Ancient Magic Civilization.
Didn’t Bagaman also say it? During the Ancient Magic Civilization Period, it was also possible for magic above the strategic level to exist.
Then, who knows if that super strong storm is some kind of magic above the strategic level?
Thinking of this, Reiger squinted his eyes and asked, "In all these years, has anyone from the outside world ever entered the Hidden Land?"
Ivy and Leo immediately hesitated.
"Seems like... there were?"
Leo looked uncertain.
"How would I know?" Ivy rolled her eyes and said, "Over eleven thousand years, the Hidden Land has changed a lot. Unlike when it was simply a refuge, who knows what happened over these years?"
"Perhaps historically someone did reach the Hidden Land, and there are occasional rumors inside saying that someone mysterious might be from the outside continent, but in reality, no one is sure if they are, or if those rumors are true."
"Anyway, I have never seen any record of someone from the outside continent in the history books kept in the temple, nor have I seen any record of someone being from the outside continent."
"On the other hand, many people have left the Hidden Land, as people throughout history have always left it yearning for the outside continent, otherwise the continent wouldn’t have been able to proliferate this large population."
"As for entering the Hidden Land from the outside continent... at least I’ve never seen that."
In other words, this is something obscure and mystical, impossible to confirm the truth or falsehood of.
"...Your High Priest really dares to send you here under such circumstances."
Reiger was speechless.
Wasn’t the High Priest afraid that Ivy and Leo wouldn’t be able to return?
Also, since entering the Hidden Land is such a difficult task, how did the people from the temple know what the Akasha Continent is like now? And how did they know that Liz, a royal member of the Ancient Magic Civilization, appeared on this continent?
As for this question, Ivy and Leo gave a clear answer.
"The temple has a very powerful secret treasure that can show information about the continent in written form at regular intervals, allowing the temple to understand what’s happening in the outside world at any time."
This was Ivy’s explanation.
The secret treasure was also created so that people in the Hidden Land can know whether the disasters in the outside continent have subsided, and whether they have escaped the dangers that once destroyed the Ancient Magic Civilization.
Its creator seems to have been the last High Priest of the Ancient Magic Civilization, whose power, capability, and status were second only to the Queen, considered the second most important figure of the Ancient Magic Civilization.
The High Priest was said to have personally delivered the embers into the Hidden Land and then returned to the continent to face the disaster with the Queen.
In other words, the High Priest likely sacrificed themselves at the end of the Ancient Magic Civilization, alongside the Queen, and now rests in some ancient relic’s tomb.
The super strong storm shrouding the Life Forbidden Zone might have also been the work of this High Priest.
If that’s the case, then this ancient High Priest, like Reiger, is a super magician who mastered magic above the strategic level.
Then...
"Although returning to the Hidden Land is difficult, the High Priest told us that if we two were to carry out this mission, we would definitely be able to return safely to the Hidden Land in the end."
This was Leo’s claim.
As for why he said this, Reiger already knew.
In the half-month after Ivy and Leo gained their freedom, Reiger asked them many questions about the Hidden Land.
Especially about the High Priest in the temple; Reiger would often inquire about her whenever he had the chance, gathering information about her.
Under such circumstances, Reiger learned that not only is the High Priest currently the strongest in the Hidden Land, but she is also a magician with aptitudes for the interference system of magic.
She specializes in premonition magic of the interference system.
She is a Prophet capable of glimpsing the future.
Upon learning the Royals were still alive, the High Priest activated a premonition magic, seeing some fragments of the future.
Immediately, she knew that the executors of this mission had to be Ivy and Leo.
As long as these two individuals embarked on the mission, it would be completed successfully, and both the Royals and them would eventually return safely to the Hidden Land.
Therefore, the Hidden Land only dispatched these two young people to carry out this important mission.
Otherwise, the temple would have certainly dispatched a big figure at the Priest level to execute this mission, possibly even deploying a powerful legion to protect the Royals and escort them to the Hidden Land if needed.
"Alright."
What more could Reiger say?
Although he didn’t know how powerful the High Priest was, she was a Prophet and made a prophecy claiming that Ivy and Leo would successfully bring back the Royals, so Reiger decided to believe it for now.
At the very least, Ivy and Leo had indeed brought Liz safely to the Tistis Kingdom, heading towards their target, the Hidden Land, en route with the team.
There’s just no knowing if the High Priest had foreseen Ivy and Leo bringing everyone, including themselves, to the Hidden Land in this manner?
Reiger thought curiously.
"Grumble~~~"
Suddenly, a cute sound came from beside Reiger.
"Whoosh!"
Everyone’s gaze instantly locked onto a person.
"Um..."
Liz clutched her stomach, her face flushed, looking shyly as if she wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.
"Your Highness, are you hungry?"
Leo straightforwardly asked such a thing.
"Mind your own business!" Ivy smacked Leo on the back of the head and, ignoring his cry of pain, warmly said to Liz, "I’ll find a place to settle soon."
"Master."
Lilith turned her head to Reiger, the implication clear: asking if he needed her to find a place.
"Huh?"
Yuloli, intrigued, moved closer to Liz, observing her stomach, reaching towards it out of curiosity why it was making sounds.
Ah, being a vampire is nice, not needing sustenance and never knowing what hunger feels like.
Liz could only shy away from Yuloli’s hand with a flushed face, her eyes looking as if she might cry as she gazed at Reiger.
"Let’s go, find a hotel or a restaurant to rest." Reiger patted the little cute one’s head and laughed, "Once Raphy Beryll is done preparing the necessities, we’ll set off and head for Ulvash."
As for transportation, Reiger had already decided to use the old method and utilize summoned creatures as mounts.
There are so many creatures of "YGGDRASIL"; naturally, there would be those capable of dashing through snow-covered and stormy terrains.
Finally creating a carriage or something with magic, everyone would comfortably head to Ulvash.
As for the cold environment of the Tistis Kingdom, that’s no problem at all in front of Reiger’s magic.
If nothing else, he can even create floating fireballs in the carriage, allowing everyone to stay warm as they travel to Ulvash.
Once Raphy provides a detailed map of the Tistis Kingdom, Reiger surely wouldn’t linger in Mite.
No matter how detailed the maps Yuri prepared were, they couldn’t be as detailed as those prepared by a native noble of this kingdom.
Having made such up his mind, under Reiger’s lead, the group began roaming the streets, looking for a hotel or restaurant.
At this moment, Reiger still didn’t know that Raphy would bring someone to him.
Someone very important.
