Chapter 270. The Celestial Project?
The barbarians did not have the habit of locking their tents, but Char always felt that it was not a good night's sleep.
So, this time, one of the tents was locked.
The lock was personally locked by Mila and the key was thrown out through the gap. It was held in the mouth of a Spirit Wolf, and she would only open it when she felt that she could open it.
When the sky was almost bright, the tent was finally opened, and Char walked out with his hands on his waist.
He went to the entrance of Carly's tent, where there was also a wolf guarding.
The Howling Moon Wolf came over and sniffed Char's body. Then, with a wail, it pounced on Char, wanting to bite her, but Char dodged it nimbly and cursed, "Bastard!"
He entered the tent and found that there were three Shadow Wolves which were even scarier than the Spirit Wolf hiding in the tent.
This type of spirit creature was an assassin among the spirit wolves. When it came to individual combat, it was no weaker than the level 50 Shadow Samurai. Its stealth ability was even slightly stronger than a Thief class of this level. If he had not been used to fighting with the Shadow Wolves, he might not have noticed it.
"Tsk, you're really meticulous."
He couldn't help but clicked his tongue.
"You actually complimented me?"
Mila also followed him into the tent.
"She's not awake yet?" She sized up Carly on the bed with a rare gentle gaze.
Usually, she was either heartless or furious.
"My guess is that the fight with you consumed too much energy, but her adrenaline drove her beyond her limits. Now that she has collapsed, it might take her a while to recover."
Char found a soft seat and sat down, and Mila naturally on his lap.
"Hey, hey, this isn't appropriate. Don't let her see you."
"If you speak any louder, she'll see you."
Mila chuckled softly, and Char could only purse his lips helplessly as he grabbed her hand gently and rubbed it.
"Can you tell me now? What happened?"
The moment he asked this question, the hand in her hand suddenly turned into a claw, and then unceremoniously pressed against his throat.
Huh? What? Why the sudden hostility?
"Do you still remember how you escaped from me last time?"
Char blinked, trying to recall what she had done in the 177th round.
[Ah-that's not right. 177th round was done in a rush. I didn't go to the grassland, but changed to another route]
[That's 176th round. Hmmm wait, it's…]
"I stole all your clothes while you were having a bath and I escaped?"
"It's not that time."
[F*ck, I remembered wrongly!]
"Was it that time when I made you breakfast using the Dream Soul Grass and escaped while you were having a nap?"
"No~ Think again."
[The range is too wide!]
"Ah, I remember! I said I had a rope technique that was very interesting, so ..."
As he spoke, he stole a glance at Mila and saw her narrow her eyes. A dangerous smile appeared on her lips.
It seemed that no matter what he said, he could not escape death this time.
Suddenly, Mila retracted her dangerous aura.
"You said you wanted to talk to the people of Ice City and ask them to accept us. Then, you never came back."
[Oh! That sounds more like it!]
"It does ring a bell…"
"And the night before you left, you said you wanted to play a little game, so you took out a rope."
"Huh?"
Char's heart was pounding wildly.
"Forget it, I'm used to it already."
Mila stretched lazily, showing off her beautiful curves.
"I have that Lord in Ice City to thank for remembering all of this."
Char suddenly realized something.
"Who is it?"
"They called her 'Lord Celestial', but she asked me to call her 'Lord Scarty'," Mila explained.
"About a month and a half ago, that Lord suddenly came to the Moon Shadow Valley and found me. She took out your portrait and asked me if I knew you. At that time, I felt that you were unfamiliar, but the more I looked at you, the more familiar I felt. I couldn't remember you until she used a powerful ability to hypnotize me. Only then did I slowly recall these things."
"Scarty," Char muttered.
She was the godmother of the Ice Queen of Arendelle, and the most powerful Ice Elf born from the Frost Crystal.
At the same time, it was the only true SSR character that could be permanently acquired through quests.
Setting wise, she was the representative of the Celestials in the human world, but unlike the Holy See, she was a true Celestial who walked the earth. Because of her benevolence, she abandoned her divine kingdom and led the people of Arendelle to continue their legacy.
Char had met her once in Howling Rock Canyon. It was when he helped the stinky seals with the Hell difficulty out-of-village quest and got it through a single draw.
At that time, he didn't realize that this was a different world. He simply thought that it was an accident, and he actually flirted with her. He didn't expect to attract the real projection of a Celestial, who almost killed him in seconds.
Now that he thought about it, perhaps it was that contact that made her realize something.
She actually helped Mila recover her memories?
Could she read her own backup data like Krieg as well?
"Messiah! Come out!"
"Ah?"
The goddess appeared on the other side with a 'bang'. She was staring at Mila, who was clueless about the current situation. She seemed to be particularly concerned about the mother-daughter's breast size, which were the same.
"You should have asked me earlier. Your memory is too jumbled up. The few times you mentioned corresponded to rounds 171,175, and 177. I have the most detailed version of it here."
As soon as she came out, she started to chatter, as if reading Char's memories had become her way of killing time.
"Shut up! Do you know about the Arendelle people and their God?" Char asked, annoyed.
"Give me five minutes, I'll go check."
"You…"
"I'm just joking! There was no Ice City in the First Era. There were no gods either. The first time I heard the term from God's chosen one was in the Third Era. But in the Second Era, that mechanical body proposed the 'Celestial Project'. So, they might be related to the Second Era."
Char asked, "You're saying that Celestials are the product of the Mechanical Civilization? They can even mass produce Gods?! Then how did the Abyss destroy the world?!"
"I've only heard of such a plan. I've never seen it in person. I've only recently mastered the 'main world'. Before that, most of my energy was used to save my chosen one. I couldn't even observe the world," said Messiah helplessly.
"So that is why you asked me to lend you my eyes to see the world, so that you can help the next chosen one to save the world and accumulate experience?"
Char gave her a deep look.
As though her thoughts were seen through, Messiah disappeared.
"This Messiah…" Char felt helpless.
"Hey, hey?"
Mila waved her hand in front of him and looked suspiciously at the spot where Messiah was standing.
"Is there anything I can't see?"
"No, no, no."
Char shook his head like a rattle.
"There must be a problem if you refute so quickly."
Mila snapped her fingers. Two violet wolf claws clawed over the space in front of her.
Char was drenched in cold sweat.
If there was really a person standing here, he would have been torn to pieces by now.
