As a fire-type creature, Dangros never thought that he would one day come to the home of an ice-type creature. He never thought that he would have to face the ruler of Malaya Ice Mountain when he was still an Elf.
And now, all of his dreams were coming true.
When they leaped up from the bottom of Meina under Troisa's lead, Dankros saw a layer of ice hidden in the valley of the iceberg from afar.
Through the sparkling and translucent ice, it could clearly see pillars erected in the ice layer. These pillars extended into the depths of the ice layer, surrounding a palace. That was the core of Malaya Ice Mountain, the home of all the ice-type creatures.
In front of the gate of the palace, there was a layer of white mist. Through the mist, Dangros could vaguely see a figure about four meters tall.
According to Troyza's introduction, the figure hidden in the snow was Frost Yzert.
Dangros knew that following Angor would eventually lead him to his "old friend" from the Fire Realm, but he still couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
He didn't stop until Angor really stepped into the ice crack and into the blizzard.
"Troisa said you wanted to see me? For the future of Tidal Realm? " This was a voice with a cold tone. It appeared without any warning, and its source could not be heard in the wind and snow. It was as if it came from all directions.
Angor stopped and looked up.
He couldn't see anything, but he could sense a pair of eyes staring at them from the depths of the blizzard.
"Yes." Angor nodded. "Not only for the future of Tidal Realm, but also for Mister Feng."
The blizzard lasted for about ten seconds before the cold voice spoke again. "… Keep going then. I'll wait for you at the end."
With that, the blizzard slowly subsided until it completely disappeared.
After the wind and snow disappeared, their vision was no longer obstructed. They could see the icicles on both sides of the crevice and the crystal palace at the end of the icicles.
The only difference was that the human silhouette that could be vaguely seen in front of the Crystal Palace had disappeared.
"The one who spoke just now …" Dangros gulped. "Was it Frost Yzert?"
Dangros looked like he was mumbling to himself, but he was actually looking at the mermaid floating in the air beside Angor — Troisa.
Troisa glanced at Dangros and slowly said, "Other than His Highness, who else do you think it could be?"
Dangros didn't know what to say. He was a bear, but that didn't mean he was stupid. Now that he was in the enemy's headquarters, he had to keep a low profile.
Dangros hugged Crimson Shield tightly and pretended he didn't exist. Seeing this, Troy sneered and softly said, "Coward."
When Dankros heard this, its eyes turned red from embarrassment and anger again. However, due to the current environment, it did not speak.
Troisa stopped provoking Dankros and looked at Angor. "Her Highness' palace is right ahead. Please follow me, mister."
Angor nodded and followed Dangros to the other side of the ice.
Several minutes later, they arrived at the entrance of the Crystal Palace. Looking forward from here, he could vaguely see the shadows of the palace. It looked like there were many creatures gathered inside.
Troisa noticed Angor's expression and explained, "They're all elemental spirits."
According to Troisa, apart from Yseer the Frost and Eskimo the Wise, only the elemental spirits of ice and water could freely enter and leave the Crystal Palace. The other elemental creatures, including Troisa, would have to obtain permission from Yzert to enter the Crystal Palace.
"His Highness didn't let me in, so this is as far as I can go." Troisa lowered her voice and continued, "As long as you come with friendly intentions, I'm sure His Highness won't make things difficult for you."
It was obvious that Troisa was trying to warn him about something.
"I understand."
Troyza nodded and didn't say anything else. She turned into mist and disappeared.
Angor glanced at the flying boar, Cerberus, and Velvet, who was still hiding. "Let's go inside."
With that, he stepped into the Crystal Palace without hesitation.
…
The interior of the Crystal Palace was much bigger than Angor expected. He was also surprised by the layout of the place.
It looked like a giant Four Seasons Theater. The four corners of the Crystal Palace were decorated with different scenery for each of the four seasons. Flowerbeds in spring, trees in summer, fruits in autumn, and a frozen lake in winter.
Countless ice elemental spirits were wandering around the theater. Some of them were water elemental spirits, but they all stayed near the lake.
Angor's group attracted the attention of these elemental spirits. They all stopped playing around and looked at them curiously.
However, none of them dared to approach Angor's group. Some elemental spirits who were close to Angor even moved away.
No doubt, it was Yzerian's doing.
Angor wasn't planning to approach the elemental spirits anyway. He looked around and saw something deep inside the palace.
It was a giant frozen throne.
There was no one sitting on the throne, but Angor could sense some energy ripples coming from it. Elmi was also in Angor's shadow, which was alerting him that there was a powerful supernatural being nearby.
If Angor wasn't mistaken, Yzerian must be nearby.
After confirming the direction, Angor moved forward without hesitation.
When he was 30 meters away from the throne, snow began to gather on the throne, which was large enough to support the Sky Giant.
Angor stopped when he was 20 meters away from the throne. The snowstorm on the throne transformed into a four-meter-tall woman with long silver hair. She was wearing a snow-white robe, a crown of wind, and a frost staff in her hand.
Ignoring the difference in body size, this "woman" looked very pleasing to the eye. However, her expression was so cold that Angor almost thought he was looking at Sennefer from Moonfrost Union.
Although Sennefer was cold and had a head of frosty silver hair, she also had the power of fire. Her eyes were as red as blood. While Sennefer's aura was a mixture of fire and ice, this "woman" with a crown on her head was nothing but ice.
To be able to sit on the throne and wear a crown, coupled with the structure of the wind and snow, needless to say, this person must be the monarch of the Malaya Iceberg.
"Greetings, Your Highness." Angor placed a hand on his chest and bowed. Beside him, Lobel and Qiubig lowered their heads as well.
The only one who didn't look up was Toby, who was sitting on Angor's shoulder.
Yzerian glanced at Angor, Lobel, Cub Bigg, and the shivering Dangros. Finally, it looked at Toby.
Looking at Toby and recalling the message Troy had sent not long ago, an undetectable glimmer appeared in Toby's pure white eyes.
"You mentioned Mister Feng, didn't you?" Angor nodded at Frost Yeather.
Angor nodded. "Yes. I followed Mister Feng's footsteps and came to this world."
Yether looked at Toby, then at Angor. "So it's true …" Angor muttered to himself.
Angor heard Yzerian's words as well. "You're not surprised to see us, Your Highness?"
Yzerian didn't answer. It wasn't because it wanted to show off. It was just looking into the distance as if it was lost in its memories.
At this moment, a hunched figure slowly appeared beside the huge frozen throne.
"Because this is fate," the hunchbacked figure spoke.
It was a half-humanoid ice-type creature with a lizard head. It looked very old. Not only was its back hunched, but its lizard head was drooping so low that it was almost parallel to the heel of its shoes. However, it had two long whiskers, which supported the weight of its head and prevented its head from touching the ground.
Angor looked at the ice creature. He didn't know who it was, but Troysa mentioned that there were only two elemental fairies who could freely enter the Crystal Palace. Yzerian was the only one who could do so.
"You're … Mister Eskimo the Wise?"
"That's me." Eskimo reached out a slim hand and stroked his beard with a smile.
Angor asked, "Mister Eskimo, what did you mean by 'fate'?"
Eskimo sighed softly. "Your appearance was guided by fate."
Angor sighed helplessly. Eskimo didn't say anything important, but Angor already knew the story behind it.
"That's what Mister Feng said?" It was a question, but Angor's tone was firm.
"You know that too? Well, you're an important part of the closed loop of fate, so it's understandable that you know. "
Eskimo's answer confirmed Angor's suspicion. Angor complained in his mind. Eskimo was just pretending to be wise.
Angor wasn't a Clairvoyant, but he had a friend who was a genius Clairvoyant. He knew a thing or two about Clairvoyants.
There was a theory among Clairvoyants that only the operator of the closed loop of fate could understand the truth of the closed loop. Once the operator realized the truth, the closed loop of fate would no longer exist. This was similar to "observation will lead to collapse".
Because of this, Eskimo's "you're an important part of the closed loop of fate, so it's understandable that you know" was fundamentally wrong.
Eskimo probably picked up bits and pieces from Feng and pieced them together to come up with what he just said.
Angor wanted to complain, but he held back in front of a pretentious old man. He would let the old man finish his act.
Of course, Eskimo didn't know what was going on in Angor's mind. He was still lamenting in a low voice, "So this is fate … Fate …"
The old voice, the expression of someone looking into the distance, and the echoes that surrounded them. If an ignorant person was here, they would probably be convinced by this scene.
But Angor remained expressionless.
Willingly convinced? Forget it. This was just good acting.
Angor played along quietly. "I see … Mister Feng, did you see through the existence of fate and foresee this day?"
Eskimo chuckled and didn't answer directly. "If you really want to know, let His Highness tell you. If I do, I'll be overstepping my authority. "
Angor nodded "knowingly" and looked away from Eskimo to the frozen throne.
At this time, Frost Yiser seemed to have recovered and sighed softly.
"Is there something on your mind, Your Highness?"
Frost Yise shook his head, his expression still cold. "I just remembered some memories."
"Is it Mister Feng?"
Yzert didn't deny it. "Yes."
"Mister Feng mentioned many things about fate, and he mentioned that someone might follow its footsteps in the future." Angor shook his head. "Well, Mister Feng mentioned many things about fate, and he mentioned that someone might follow its footsteps in the future.
"So, are you the person he was talking about?"
As soon as it finished speaking, its eyes suddenly became sharp. The aura around it changed, and the pressure suddenly increased. It was as if he was trying to see through Angor from inside out.
Angor didn't react to the sudden pressure. Elmi, who was always on guard, already showed up in his shadow form and blocked the pressure.
