Celestial Mage

Chapter 480 Every race has a great history, except the orcs (23)

At dusk, Shiraya came back.

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

"Hmm~~ My lord's strength is getting better and better, and I feel very hot when I get closer."

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

Then I buried myself in the pool, washed my body carefully, washed it many times, and used all kinds of natural purified shower gels, and then stopped after confirming that there was no peculiar smell on my body.

Then he turned to look at Rosen.

"I told Eve's father about you. He told me that my lord is still angry now, so there is no rush."

"The safest way is to live in the swamp for a while, so that you can get enough of the swamp smell on your body, so as not to make adults angry just by meeting."

"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 be naked if you like, anyway, there is only our family around here. But remember to apply this lotion on the skin, to prevent mosquitoes and leeches."

She handed a hollow reed stalk to Rosen.

Rosen opened the plug at one end and smelled it. He felt a spicy, fishy and embarrassing smell. He couldn't help but ask, "Is this some kind of adult excrement?"

"You guessed it right. It's made from adults' urine mixed with herbs. After applying it, not only will the poisonous insects stay away, but the extraordinary beasts in the swamp will not dare to touch 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 reeds and the indestructible mana. He felt that being naked was always a bit unacceptable: "Sill, give me some clothes."

Shiraya casually pointed to the wardrobe on the other side.

"Over there, you can take whatever you want. Brother Eve is about the same size as you, and your clothes can wear each other. But it's best not to wear it in the water. It's uncomfortable to wear when it gets wet."

"remember."

Since other girls can let go, it doesn't matter if he is a big man, so he just opens up.

And in this sweltering 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 him do as the Romans did so soon, Hiraya smiled, and casually held her daughter Eve in her arms, chatting with Rosen.

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

Rosen smiled: "Actually, I'm not a duke anymore. I'm tired of being a duke, so I passed the duke title to my wife in the east."

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

Shiraya nodded in understanding.

"The mortal duke looks at the scenery, but the work must be very heavy, and he must be very unfree. With the current strength of my brother-in-law, there is really no need to entangle with a group of mortals every day."

After chatting for a few more words, Rosen pointed to Ryder who was sitting in the corner of the pool, always silent.

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

"Yes."

"Is the ruins far from here?"

Xieraya didn't hide anything, and she explained it in detail.

"The ruins are in the south, and it's two thousand Lami away to the south. My husband also went there by chance and found him."

"At that time, he was in a coma and couldn't wake up. Out of kindness, my husband brought him back."

There was a hint of emotion on her face: "Speaking of which, this was already 300 years ago. At that time, the ruins were almost completely covered by vegetation, and now there must be nothing left."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and hit the fluttering daughter in his arms, and lightly reprimanded: "How old are you, do you still want to breastfeed?"

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

"Mother, it's boring to listen to your adults chatting. I'm going out to catch water rabbits~ Ryder, come with me."

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

Although it was dusk, it was still extremely hot. Rosen didn't want to go out for a run, and also wanted to continue to inquire about Ryder's situation.

He shook his head again and again: "Just forgive me, we'll talk about it in a few days. Let me get used to it these few days. This place is so hot, it's so hot that I'm going to pass out."

"OK then."

Evelina took Ryder and left.

Xieraya hurriedly instructed: "It's getting late, grab it nearby, bring the communication magic weapon, and don't go too far, Eve."

"Got it, mother."

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

Only Rosen and Xieraya 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 ruins of the temple. I want to take a look, but I don't know the way. Can you find a guide for me?"

Hiraya thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, 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."

She got up and looked for a book in a primitive bone bookcase nearby.

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

Naturally, Rosen turned his head and took a look. Immediately, he felt impolite, turned his head back, looked down at the sparkling pool, and complained secretly in his heart.

"This damn place is not only hot in the body, but also very hot in the heart~"

After searching for a while, Xieraya came back with an animal skin book and handed it to Rosen's shoulder from behind: "Wax-soaked waterproof book, feel free to read it."

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

But there is a problem that he doesn't know the words on it.

A trace of embarrassment appeared on his face: "Hill, I can't read the Wood Elf characters."

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

As soon as Xieraya sat down in the pool, when she heard this, she slid directly to Rosen's side, leaned on Rosen's shoulder, looked at the cover and said, "That travel note should be on page 113."

Rosen immediately turned to the corresponding page, and shrugged his shoulders, trying his best to maintain some etiquette distance from Hill.

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

She read carefully, and Rosen listened carefully, and cooperated with the illustrations on the pages to carefully analyze the location of the ancient lost ruins.

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

"Remains of the ancient goblin empire? Did the goblins ever build an empire?"

Xieraya nodded: "That should have happened nearly 1 years ago, probably when the Hundred Clans War. Have you heard of the Hundred Clans War?"

"I heard Elder Wendy Rilla mention it once."

"Ah~~ Great Elder Wendy Rilla is my grandmother, and I actually heard the 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 amazed that a strong man like Wendy Rilla, who was close to the extreme of indestructibility, could be called great, which shows that the achievements of goblins in the past may be really not easy.

When you think about it, this is not unusual.

Because the history of civilization in this world is so long, Elder Wendy alone has lived for 2000 years, and the Great Eternal Tree has lived for 3 years.

3 years ago, a mortal girl named Adela Chia came to the giant island of Glenn and took the time to plant trees, which shows that there was a high level of civilization at that time.

In this world where mana exists, as long as a civilization walks on the right path and concentrates on exploring the mysteries of the world, it will reach a certain extreme in less than 1000 years.

And many people on earth have an illusion that civilization will continue and will always go upward.

But in fact, as long as the time span is extended, civilization, like life, is always ups and downs, and it is impossible to be at the peak forever.

There are rises and falls, greatness and humbleness.

While Rosen was meditating, Hirrayah whispered in his ear.

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

Rosen thinks these words are really full of the wisdom of time, just like all commoners living in human society today, if they keep going up, they will definitely be able to pour out a brilliant ancestor.

Because if the 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 some 'I'm not racist' joke.

"What happened to the orc?" he asked.

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

This is also true.

Rosen returned to the ancient goblin civilization with interest: "Miss Hill, did your grandmother say what height the goblins have reached?"

"Grandma said that goblins are an alchemy civilization, just like the current golden gods."

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

"The reason for their defeat was not the threat of aliens, but the civil strife of the race. In the end, in a civil war called the Twilight of the Empire, the goblins personally destroyed their glory."

"After the Great War, the mainland was in extreme chaos. It took a full 1100 years before the human race re-emerged from the ruins of the goblin empire."

Rosen was fascinated when he heard it. Alchemy creates a true god. How dare these goblins think about it. They really deserve the description of 'great'.

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

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

"The day after tomorrow."

"It will take so long. Can I go to him?"

I just want to find this brother-in-law to lead the way.

"Don't."

"Yemengarde is very sensitive and cautious. When bathing, he will not tolerate any stranger approaching. Once he finds out, he will be furious and everyone will suffer."

"And this is normal time, now when I am angry, it is even more difficult to serve."

She understood Rosen's thoughts and looked apologetic.

"The Xingguanglu family is the servant of the lord, and there is a big day every half a month. There is no freedom at all for the big day to take time to rest and prepare for the next big day."

"So, you have to go to the ruins by yourself."

"Ok."

Rosen felt a little unhappy: "This snake is really difficult to serve." "

But then I changed my mind: "After all, it is a legendary race with the ultimate indestructible power. It is normal to have a big airs." '

Since you have to go by yourself, you have to understand the information more carefully.

Then he continued to ask: "Hill, continue to read the travel notes?"

Hill continued to read.

The travel notes are quite long, and as I read them, I was too lazy to stretch my body because of etiquette. In order to save effort, I simply read them together.

After finally reading the travel notes, Rosen has a fairly accurate understanding of the specific location of the ruins. He really wants to go see it now, but looking at the sky, it is already a little dark, so he gives up his impulse and plans to go again early the next morning. .

"Eve hasn't come back yet?"

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

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

After confirming her daughter's safety, Xieraya was bored and said, "Lawson, it's okay anyway, may I read a few more passages to you?"

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

"also."

Xieraya continued to share various precious experiences with Rosen.

While listening, Rosen cooperated with Robinson's "Adventure Travel Notes in Yunmeng Swamp" and looked at each other, and immediately felt that he had benefited a lot.

Sitting a little sore, he raised his hands to support the ground and prepared to change his posture. After this support, he found that the hand felt a little soft. He looked down and supported it on Xieraya's thigh.

Xieraya paused, looked down at Rosen's hand, then turned a blind eye and continued to teach the technique.

Rosen's heart moved, and he felt something, so he didn't take it back.

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

"How can there be any choice in the marriage between the two races?"

"Besides, I was just a little person who had just entered the Transcendent back then. It happened to be facing the rebellion of the lower elves, and the moon elves were in despair. It just so happened that my husband came to propose marriage, and the elder asked me to marry, so I will marry."

"It's been so many years now, but I'm used to it."

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

Rosen understands that he has a rather indecisive personality and has the idea of ​​pursuing freedom, but he does not have the determination and strength to pursue freedom.

Feeling hot in his heart, he couldn't help hugging Hill on his lap, and asked softly, "Is it okay?"

Hill pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

"Yes, but quickly, before my daughter sees it."

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

"Then thank you brother-in-law."

Rosen began to observe carefully.

After about ten minutes, he came to a conclusion.

After years of polishing, Xieraya's extraordinary heart has been quite perfect, the strength has reached the ultimate level of 12, the quality has reached 7.95, and it is only the last line to break through the indestructible realm!
He calculated carefully again, and after more than ten minutes of calculation, he came to a new conclusion.

He can help.

But in the end, it is not a small matter that promotion is immortal.

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

I am afraid that I will act recklessly and do bad things with good intentions.

Hiraya thought about it carefully, then shook her head.

"No big impact. I am still the mistress of the Xingguanglu family, and I am still the husband's wife. Of course, I am also Xieraya of the Morningstar family."

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

The level 1 indestructibility of ordinary races is far from being able to resist the extreme indestructibility of legendary races.

Rosen understood: "Very well, then you are great."

After some careful operations, he successfully raised his Extraordinary Heart quality to 8.0.

Just such a slight advance helped Xieraya's power go a step further, advancing to the first level of Immortality.

Shiraya's body shook violently, and she tightly grasped Rosen's arm, her muscles tensed. The silver eyes unique to the high moon elves opened wide, shining brightly in them.

After going on for a full minute, the light in the eyes slowly subsided and became as warm as water.

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

Her tone of voice, demeanor and eyes are very calm, with only a slight hint of joy, which shows that she has the pursuit of power, but she is not fanatical.

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

The latter will generally be ecstatic, dancing, and even change their temperament drastically.

Since Hill was so calm, Rosen was completely relieved.

"Hill, continue to tell me about the swamp adventure skills."

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

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