Chapter 272 No Hope of Return
In this vibrant area, there is not only no cold fog, but not even any cold air.
Being in it, Miss felt like he had returned to the human territory.
The air is fresh, warm and comfortable.
Looking around, there seemed to be an invisible wall separating the white mist, preventing the cold air from approaching.
The sturdy tree in the center is very different from the dry world tree in Borderland.
The huge tree crown seems to be able to cover the sky, and the emerald green leaves make it more vibrant.
Ever since Mis stepped into this area, he had a familiar feeling.
It was like returning to a no-man's land, returning to the [Great Labyrinth·World Tree].
The wreath on her earlobe was also swaying slightly.
I was extremely excited, as if I had met a long-lost relative.
It was because of the abnormal reaction of the World Tree Wreath that he could be sure that this giant tree must be the World Tree.
This must be the place where Red found a glimmer of hope.
You know, there is an independent and complete ecosystem inside the World Tree.
Not only is the climate pleasant and suitable for long-term residence, but there is also no shortage of food and water.
Miss held the unconscious Sylph in his arms, successfully found the entrance portal of the World Tree, and walked in.
They succeeded.
Successfully survived.
Next, we just need to adjust the status of the two people in the World Tree and make adequate preparations in advance.
The return trip won't be so dangerous.
After entering the World Tree, all the familiar feelings came back.
As soon as Miss moved his mind, his whole body was wrapped in golden light. The severe frostbite was healed in an instant, and the fatigue also disappeared instantly.
Then he closed his eyes, and everything inside the World Tree appeared in his mind like a slide.
Every mountain, every river, even every plant and every animal cannot escape his sight.
At this moment, he is the master of this world.
"Ok?"
While searching for the area with the most supplies, Mis unexpectedly discovered a man.
To be precise, he is an old man from the dragon clan.
At this time, the old man was sitting quietly by the river, fishing with his homemade fishing rod in his hand.
His cabin is not far from the river.
"The soldiers that Red left behind?"
The next second, Miss and Sylph disappeared from the spot and came to a small river at the foot of a mountain.
Looking at the surrounding environment, Miss nodded with satisfaction.
This will be his and Sylph's temporary residence.
As for the old dragon man, Miss had no intention of approaching him actively.
They will not stay here for long. Once Sylph's body fully recovers, they will return to Dragon City.
Since I'm not staying long, there's no need to get to know this "neighbor".
Just keep your distance.
Even if this old dragon man discovered them and had evil intentions towards them, Miss was not worried at all.
After all, this is the World Tree, the home ground of Miss.
No one can defeat him here.
After placing Sylph gently on the soft grass, Miss went up the mountain to cut trees.
Soon, a medium-sized wooden house was built by the river.
The brand new wooden bed was covered with clean animal skins, which were fluffy and extremely soft.
The big guy who provided this complete animal skin naturally became Miss's dinner today.
Three days later, Sylph finally woke up.
The unfamiliar surroundings in her sight made her feel a little uneasy.
Fortunately, she soon discovered Miss sleeping next to her, and a sense of security instantly surged in her heart.
Sylph hugged Miss's arm as familiarly as she did in the happy threesome in the past.
He buried his whole face in Miss's shoulder and carefully felt Miss's breath.
"Is this a dream? It seems I'm already dead, but dying doesn't seem so bad..."
"Silly woman, you risked your life to save me, how can I bear to watch you die?"
Sylph looked up suddenly and found that Miss was awake.
Her face flushed with shame and she was about to get up, but she stopped moving for a moment, as if she had thought of something.
"In my own dream, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Sylph comforted herself and hugged her tighter.
She still felt that everything before her was a dream.
Sylph clearly remembered that she and Miss entered the extreme ice land.
We moved forward with difficulty in the bone-chilling white fog.
But there was no chill at all in the small hut where they were now.
Besides, how could such a small wooden house appear in such an icy land?
There was a strange sound of birds singing outside the house.
This was a sound that even Sylph had never heard in Dragon City.
Looking out the window, there is a trickling stream.
There are also rolling mountains and lush green trees.
This place and Sky Island are completely two extremes.
So Sylph could never imagine that she was still alive, living in reality.
Seeing that she was using Sylph's body and acting like Fufu, Miss couldn't help but pat her on the head.
"You still want to die when I'm here, then you're really overthinking it."
Miss told Sylph all his speculations about the polar ice land.
He also told her where they were now.
"world Tree?"
When Sylph learned that they were now living in the World Tree, she was so shocked that she forgot to be shy.
"Is it the tree in your human territory?"
"It's even more lush than the one in our Borderlands."
Sylph's mouth could hardly close; the amount of information was simply too much.
She had never heard that there was a world tree on Sky Island, and that it grew in an extremely harsh environment like the polar ice land.
"So that bastard Red has been hiding in the World Tree for a thousand years?"
"My guess is this. After all, there is no shortage of food and water here."
Sylph looked up at Miss's face and said, "No wonder you took me to the icy land. It turns out you knew there was a way to survive here from the beginning."
Miss shook his head. "It was just speculation at the beginning. I chose to enter here because I was really desperate."
"You saved me again..."
"No, this time, it was Fu Fu who saved me first."
"We are all still alive, how great..."
"Yes, when Fu Fu's body is fully recovered, we will return to Dragon City and seek revenge on that bastard Red."
"Okay, I'll do as you say..."
Miss didn't know if it was his illusion, but Sylph's tone seemed a little reluctant.
It seemed like she wasn't looking forward to the return trip.
Seven days after entering the World Tree, there was basically no problem with Sylph's body.
As for the combat effectiveness, it is definitely not as good as before.
Physical fitness has also dropped drastically.
Even so, there is still one thing to be happy about.
Sylph's physical condition is at least much better than when she first entered the extreme ice land.
Combined with Miss's defensive magic, crossing the white fog this time will definitely be much easier than last time.
Miss also stored a lot of food in his own small all-purpose package to replenish energy on the road.
Even the defensive barrier used to isolate the cold and white fog has been improved.
It can be said that everything is ready.
After saying goodbye to the cabin where they had stayed for seven days, the two left the World Tree and prepared to step into the white mist again.
Before that, Misty deliberately observed the "neighbor", an unknown old dragon man.
The old man didn't react at all and continued to live an ordinary but fulfilling life like an ordinary person.
"Is it really an NPC?"
Sylph wondered, "What is a PC?"
Miss smiled awkwardly, "Nothing..."
When they arrived in front of the white fog, Miss cast a defensive barrier, then the two looked at each other and took a step forward at the same time.
But the moment his defensive barrier came into contact with the white mist, it suddenly shattered.
I couldn't even hold on for a second.
Miss reacted quickly and grabbed Sylph, and the two were only a finger's distance away from the white fog.
"What exactly is going on?"
