Master Tongtian

At dusk, Sirraya came back.

As soon as he came back, he fanned his face with his hands, took off his clothes while fanning, and sat back in the pool with a 'pop'.

"Hmm~~ Your strength is getting better and better, sir. It feels very hot when you get a little closer."

She smelled her arm again and commented: "But the smell of adults is getting stronger and stronger."

Then he buried himself in the pool and carefully washed his body many times. He also used various natural and purified shower gels and other things to make sure that there was no odor on his body before he stopped.

Then he turned to look at Rosen.

"I told Eve's father about you. He told me that you are still angry, so you can't be impatient."

"The safest way is to live in the swamp for a while, so that you can get enough of the swamp atmosphere so that you don't make the adults angry when you meet him."

"How long will it take?"

"At least ten days. Don't wear grass skirts, and try not to use spells. Just wear the clothes we provide."

"Of course, you can stay naked if you like. Anyway, we are the only family around here. But remember to apply this potion on your skin to prevent mosquitoes and leeches."

She handed a hollow reed pole to Rosen.

Rosen opened the stopper at one end and smelled it. He felt a spicy, fishy and unpleasant smell, and couldn't help but ask: "Isn't this some kind of adult's excrement?"

"You guessed it, it's made from your lord's urine mixed with herbs. After you apply it, not only will the poisonous insects stay away, but the extraordinary beasts in the swamp won't dare to attack you easily."

"Understood."

As for the ten-day preparation time, it was much longer than Rosen expected, but it was acceptable.

He put away the reed rods and the immortal magic power. He felt that it was always hard to accept being naked: "Hill, give me a few sets of clothes."

Sirraya pointed to the closet on the other side.

"Over there, you can take it as you like. Brother Eve is about the same figure as you. You two can wear each other's clothes. But it's best not to wear them in the water. It won't be comfortable if they get wet."

"remember."

Since other girls can let go, it doesn't matter that he is a grown man, so he just opens his heart.

And in this hot and humid swamp, sitting in the cool pool is indeed quite refreshing. I just want to stay in the pool and never get up.

Seeing that he followed the Romans so quickly, Sillaya smiled, casually held her daughter Eve in her arms, and chatted with Rosen.

"Rosen, you are the Duke of Storm. The Duke must be very busy. Why do you have time to come to the swamp in person?"

Rosen smiled: "Actually, I am no longer a duke. I got tired of being a duke, so I passed the title to my wife in the East."

"Also, I heard about the stupid things Robinson did, so I came here to see if I could ease the relationship."

Sirraya nodded in understanding.

"The mortal Duke looks at the scenery, but the work must be very heavy and not free. With my brother-in-law's current strength, there is really no need to be entangled with a group of mortals every day."

After chatting for a while, Rosen pointed to Ryder, who was sitting in the corner of the pool and remained silent.

"Eve said that Ryder was found in the ruins of a lost temple?"

"That's right."

"Are the ruins far from here?"

Sirraya didn’t hide anything and spoke in detail.

"The ruins are in the south, about 2,000 meters away. My husband also went there by chance and discovered him."

"He was unconscious at the time and couldn't be woken up. Out of kindness, my husband brought him back."

There was a trace of emotion on her face: "Speaking of which, this happened 300 years ago. At that time, the ruins were almost completely covered by vegetation, but now there must be no trace left."

After saying that, he reached out and hit his daughter who was moving around in his arms, and scolded: "How old are you, and you still want to breastfeed?"

Evelina immediately became honest, but after a while she couldn't sit still anymore.

"Mom, it's boring to listen to you adults chatting. I want to go out to catch water rabbits~ Ryder, come with me."

After saying that, he turned to look at Rosen: "Uncle, catching water rabbits is fun. Let's go together."

Although it was already dusk, it was still very hot. Rosen didn't want to go out and run around, and he also wanted to continue asking about Ryder's situation.

He shook his head repeatedly: "Just spare me, and we'll talk in a few days. Let me get used to it in the past few days. This place is so hot, it's so hot that people will faint."

"Oh well."

Evelina took Ryder and left.

Sirraya hurriedly gave an instruction: "It's getting late, so just catch him nearby and bring the communication tool with you, don't go too far, Eve."

"I know, mother."

Evelina's voice came back far away, already more than a hundred meters away.

Only Rosen and Sillaya were left in the room.

Rosen continued the previous topic.

"Hill~ I suspect that Ryder is a creation of an ancient civilization, so I am very interested in the temple ruins. I want to take a look, but I don't know the way. Can you find me a guide?"

Sirraya thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment. I'll get you a book. It's my husband's travel notes. You should be able to find the travel route 300 years ago in it."

She got up and went to look for a book in a nearby primitive bone bookcase.

The bookcase was very low, so she bent down to find it.

Rosen naturally turned his head and took a look. He immediately felt rude and immediately turned back, looking down at the sparkling pool, secretly complaining in his heart.

"Not only is the body hot in this ghost place, but the heart is also very hot~"

After rummaging for a while, Sirraya came back with an animal skin book and handed it to Rosen's shoulder from behind: "It's a waterproof book soaked in wax. You can read it as you like."

Rosen reached out and took it, and found that the book was very thick, with large pages. After opening it, he found that the words were very small, there were some illustrations, and the content was very detailed.

But there was a problem: he didn't recognize the words on it.

There was a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Hill, I can't read the wood elf writing."

"Oh~ I'm so sorry, I'll read it to you."

Sirraya had just sat down in the pool. After hearing this, she pulled directly to Rosen's side, leaned on Rosen's shoulder, looked at the cover and said, "That travelogue should be on page 113."

Rosen immediately turned to the corresponding page, hunched his shoulders, and tried his best to keep a ceremonial distance from Hill.

Sirraya felt it, pretended not to notice, and began to read seriously the travel diary recorded by her husband 300 years ago.

She read carefully, Rosen listened carefully, and carefully analyzed the locations of ancient lost ruins in conjunction with the illustrations on the pages.

After listening for a while, I heard some strange new words.

"The remains of the ancient goblin empire? Did goblins also establish an empire?"

Sirraya nodded: "That must have happened nearly ten thousand years ago, probably during the Hundred Tribes War. Have you heard of the Hundred Tribes War?"

"I heard Elder Wen Diruila talk about it once."

"Ah~ Elder Wendirila is my grandmother. I actually heard my story from her."

"She told me that these stupid and greedy blue-skinned water goblins in the swamp today were once a great race in ancient times."

"great?"

Rosen was surprised that a strong person like Wendirila, who was close to the ultimate in immortality, could be called great, which showed that the goblin's past achievements may be really extraordinary.

If you think about it carefully, this is not unusual.

Because the history of civilization in this world is particularly long, Elder Wendy alone lived for twelve thousand years, and the Great Eternal Tree lived for thirty thousand years.

Thirty thousand years ago, a mortal woman named Adela Qiya came to the giant island of Gelent and had the leisure to plant trees, which shows that there was a lot of civilization at that time.

In this world where mana exists, as long as a civilization takes the right path and focuses on exploring the mysteries of the world, it can reach a certain extreme in less than a thousand years.

Many people on earth have the illusion that civilization will continue and move upward.

But in fact, as long as the time span is extended, we will know that civilization, like life, is always ups and downs, and cannot always be at its peak.

There are rises and declines, greatness and humbleness.

While Rosen was deep in thought, Sirraya's whisper came to his ears.

"My grandmother said that every intelligent race alive today had a glorious era except the orcs."

Rosen felt that these words were really full of the wisdom of time. Just like all the common people in human society today, if they kept pouring down, they would definitely be able to pour out an awesome ancestor.

Because if our ancestors were as mediocre as this commoner, they would be extinct in a few generations.

But the last few words made him want to laugh, reminding him of a certain "I am not racist" joke.

He asked, "What happened to the orcs?"

"The orcs are too young. They have just emerged from ignorance. To be precise, it is less than 2000 years ago and they have not yet had time to establish their glory."

This is also true.

Rosen's interest returned to the ancient goblin civilization: "Miss Hill, did your grandmother tell you what height the goblins had reached?"

"Grandma said that the goblins were an alchemical civilization, very similar to the current Golden God Clan."

"They achieved incredible achievements in alchemy, and once tried to use alchemy to create a true god. But they ultimately failed."

"The reason for their failure was not the threat of foreign races, but the internal strife of the race. In the end, in a civil war known as the Twilight of the Empire, the goblins personally destroyed their glory."

"After the war, the continent was in extreme chaos. A full 1,100 years passed before the human race re-emerged from the ruins of the Goblin Empire."

Rosen was fascinated by what he heard. Alchemy creates a true god. How dare these goblins think about it. They are indeed worthy of the description of 'great'.

He also wanted to visit the abandoned temple in the south more and more, and even exceeded his expectations of cooperation with Jormungandr.

I couldn't help but ask: "Hill, when will your husband come back?"

"The day after tomorrow."

"It takes so long. Can I go find him?"

I just wanted to find this brother-in-law to show me the way.

"Don't."

"Jormungandr is very sensitive and cautious. When bathing, he will not tolerate any stranger approaching. Once discovered, he will fly into a rage and everyone will suffer."

"And this is normal. Now when I'm angry, it's even more difficult to take care of me."

She understood Rosen's thoughts and looked apologetic.

"The Starlight Deer family is your servant, and they have a big day every half month. You have to take time to rest between big days and prepare for the next big day. There is no freedom at all."

"So, you have to go to the ruins on your own."

"All right."

Rosen felt a little unhappy: ‘This snake is really difficult to take care of. "

But then I changed my mind and thought: 'After all, it is a legendary race that possesses the ultimate power of immortality. It is normal for them to be arrogant. ’

Now that you have to go by yourself, you need to understand the information in more detail.

Then he continued to ask: "Hill, would you like to continue reading your travel notes?"

Hill just kept reading.

The travelogue is quite long, and as I read it, my body, which had been staying away due to etiquette, became too lazy to tense up. In order to save effort, I just read it together.

After finally reading the travel notes, Rosen had a fairly accurate understanding of the specific location of the ruins. He really wanted to go see it now, but looking at the sky, it was already a little dark, so he gave up the urge and prepared to go there early the next morning. .

"Eve hasn't come back yet?"

Sirraya was also a little worried. She picked up the communicator and shouted: "Eve, it's time to go home~"

After a while, a response came: "Mom, wait a minute, I found a big rabbit nest."

After confirming that her daughter was safe, Sirraya was bored and said, "Rosen, it's okay anyway. Can I read a few more paragraphs to you?"

Rosen said: "Why don't you tell me about swamp survival skills?"

"also."

Sirraya continued to share various precious experiences with Rosen.

While listening, Rosen matched Robinson's "Adventures in Yunmeng Swamp" and compared them with each other. He immediately felt that he had benefited a lot.

I was a little sore from sitting, so I raised my hands to support the ground and prepared to change positions. When I supported it, I found that the hand felt a little soft. I lowered my head and saw that I was supporting it on Sirraya's thigh.

Silraya paused in her voice, looked down at Rosen's hand, then turned a blind eye and continued to teach the skills.

Rosen's heart moved, and he felt something, so he simply took it back.

After a while, he asked: "Hill, why did you choose to marry in such a boring place?"

"When two races marry, how can there be any choice?"

"Besides, I was just a little person who had just entered the supernatural world. I was facing the rebellion of the lower elves, and the moon elves were in decline. My husband happened to come to propose marriage, and the great elder asked me to marry him, so I got married."

"Now that it's been so many years, I'm used to it."

After a pause, she added softly: "However, sometimes I also want to go to the outside world. Unfortunately, the outside world is too cruel, and I can't let go of my family in my heart."

Rosen understood that he was relatively indecisive and had the idea of ​​pursuing freedom, but he did not have the determination and strength to pursue freedom.

Feeling warm to the touch, he couldn't help but hug Hill on his lap and asked softly: "Is it okay?"

Hill pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

"Yes, but be quick and don't let my daughter see you."

"Okay, I will also take this opportunity to take a look at your extraordinary heart and see if there is any way to improve it. This is my repayment to you."

"Thank you very much, brother-in-law."

Rosen began to observe carefully.

After about ten minutes, he came to a conclusion.

After years of polishing, Sirraya's extraordinary heart has been perfected. Its strength has reached the ultimate level of 12, and its quality has reached 7.95. She is only one step away from breaking through to the realm of immortality!

He calculated carefully again, and after more than ten minutes, he came to a new conclusion.

He can help.

But in the end, being promoted to immortality is no small matter.

Rosen asked cautiously: "Hill, if you advance to the Immortal Realm, will it have a huge impact on your life?"

Afraid of acting recklessly and doing bad things with good intentions.

Silraya thought carefully and shook her head.

"It doesn't have a big impact. I am still the mistress of the Starlight Deer family, and I am still my husband's wife. Of course, I am also the Sirraya of the Morning Star family."

"Of course, life will become more stable, but it cannot change the status quo of still being a servant of Jormungandr."

The level 1 immortality of an ordinary race is far from being able to compete with the ultimate level of immortality of a legendary race.

Rosen understood: "Very good, then you can be great."

After some careful operations, the quality of its extraordinary heart was successfully improved to 8.0.

Just such a small breakthrough helped Sirraya's power take a further step forward, reaching the level of immortality.

Silraya's body shook violently, and she tightly grasped Rosen's arm, her muscles tightened, and the high moon elf's unique silver eyes opened wide, with bright light in them.

After lasting for a full minute, the light in his eyes slowly converged and became as warm as water.

She let out a long breath: "So this is the power of the Immortal Realm. It's great."

Her tone, expression, and eyes were all calm, with only a hint of happiness showing, indicating that she pursued power but was not fanatical.

This kind of indifferent mentality usually appears in long-lived elves, but it is difficult for short-lived golden humans to achieve it.

The latter will usually be ecstatic, dance with joy, or even have a drastic change in temperament.

Since Hill was so calm, Rosen was completely relieved.

"Hill, continue to tell me your swamp adventure skills."

He was also very happy because for this help, Mother Earth rewarded him with a full 0.1 level, which is now 3.9.

After breaking through the long-term shackles of power, Sirraya was actually very happy and immediately said: "Brother-in-law, I will not hide any secrets and share all the knowledge I know with you."
