"Sister Lori is also going to train at the Great Wall of Calamity?" Li Xiang looked at the Shield King and the expressionless little loli in surprise.
The Great Wall of Calamity was a dangerous place. More importantly, it was the first line of defense against the calamities. If a magician wanted to train, they could choose the less dangerous border.
Li Xiang was exiled, not on vacation. He could not guarantee that he could return from the Great Wall of Calamity in one piece, not to mention bringing a little burden with him.
Although Lori did not think of herself as a burden, she would die if she did not have the strength of a player when facing the calamities.
"I'm not your sister." Lori retorted and asked in a muffled voice, "Do you think I'm too weak?"
Her gaze sharpened. She was only fourteen years old and had grown up under the protection of the Shield King. She was proud and arrogant. There had never been a person who did not admire her strength and thought she was a hindrance.
Although the young man in front of her did not say it explicitly, the feeling of disdain and annoyance was almost overflowing.
"Yes." Li Xiang did not hesitate and said honestly, "Being weak is secondary. The main thing is that I have accepted this mission to protect you. Have you ever seen anyone bring a little burden to the battlefield?"
"Who are you calling a little burden?!"
"Is there a second one here?"
"…" Lori looked at him angrily, but her expression quickly returned to normal. "I can guarantee that I won't hinder you on the battlefield. If I really do hinder you or even threaten your life, you can abandon me at any time."
"If that's the case, are you willing to bring me to the Great Wall of Calamity?"
Li Xiang was surprised by her sudden change in tone. He thought that the proud young lady would reject this mission after being provoked by him. He did not expect Lori to admit defeat.
This meant that she might be the one who suggested going to the Great Wall of Calamity for training!
The Shield King was willing to help her with such a dangerous mission and even planned it out. The Shield King doted on his descendant so much that it was shocking!
"Haha, looking at you, I'm reminded of many years ago, when your mother was about the same age as Lori. She always followed me around and begged me to take her to the Great Wall of Disaster." The Shield King chuckled and raised his eyebrows as he thought about the past. "She's very similar to Lori, but she's even crazier than Lori. At the time, she was only an ordinary person, yet she wanted to follow me to the Great Wall of Disaster to take a look. It was clear how much of an attraction the Great Wall of Disaster held for her. If I had known that she would walk such a path in the future, I wouldn't have brought her there. "
"Your Majesty, are you referring to the matter of her absorbing the power of disaster?"
"That's right. Later on, she successfully broke through the level 9 barrier that had troubled us for countless years by absorbing and enslaving the Calamities. On the day she broke through, we learned that she had been secretly capturing Calamities for so many years. The opportunity was actually when I took her to the Great Wall of Calamities when we were young. On such a large battlefield, only this little girl found the calamities to be beautiful and interesting. Even now, these words are enough to frighten anyone. "
The Shield King shrugged helplessly.
He was the oldest of the Five Kings, and when he became a player, it just so happened that the glorious era of the Lighthouse players had just come to an end.
"Could it be that Lori is also …" An inexplicable thought popped up in Li Xiang's mind.
The Shield King laughed in shock, then immediately understood. "How can there be so many coincidences? Bai Lili and I are just ordinary siblings. We don't have so many messy relationships like them. After reaching level 9, most players do indeed attach great importance to the issue of bloodline inheritance, and can't wait to create descendants and cultivate a player family. Among them, the guy from Dong Ling's family is the most persistent, and I happen to be the one who doesn't care the least. "
"I've had countless wives in my life, players, magicians, and all kinds of ordinary people. I only had one reason for marrying her, and that was that I loved her enough. Lori's mother was just an ordinary woman, and she passed away decades ago. " The Shield King sighed. Speaking of this wife of his, a rare look of worry flashed across his face, showing the depth of his love.
Even an existence like him could not prolong the life of the person he loved, and there was nothing he could do other than watch her grow old and die.
This was also the reason why many players were unwilling to find ordinary people as partners.
The happy time together was too short, and after that, you would have to watch your other half slowly become an old woman or an old man, and watch them die of old age. That was too painful.
"Birth, old age, sickness, and death are natural laws, but those few years with her were the happiest days of my life. They always give up a lot of things for the sake of bloodline purity, and even their feelings become incomparably thin. In my opinion, this is a foolish behavior that is detached from human nature. Players are also humans, not machines, why must they separate themselves from the human race? "
The Shield King gently lifted Lori, who was beside him, and placed her on his lap. Lori was very obedient, leaning into his arms quietly.
"Your Majesty the Shield King's words and thoughts are very admirable," Li Xiang sighed from the bottom of his heart. To be able to retain such sentiments at level 9 was indeed worthy of respect.
"Hypocrite! You obviously don't like Big Beard. "Lori pointed at him with her little finger, and said sweetly," You haven't answered my question. "
"I'll accept this commission." Li Xiang looked at her and said leisurely, "But you'll have to be responsible for my daily necessities. You'll help me wash my clothes, cook my meals, and make my bed. On the battlefield, I'll tie you to my back and never let you go. If necessary, I'll abandon you."
"Okay!" Lori didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.
The Shield King looked at the two of them and laughed loudly.
Even if they didn't fight, being able to personally experience life on the Great Wall of Disaster was also a terrifying cultivation.
Many people couldn't go any further after facing the disaster, such as Dolly, but there were also people who advanced by leaps and bounds after that and found the meaning of their existence.
"Your Majesty, I have another question."
"I know what you want to ask. This is just a projection clone, my real body has already gone to the New World, and there are a few other clones hidden everywhere to deal with the great changes that may happen in the Seven Continents during this period. "
The Shield King answered truthfully.
Even if they were forcefully recruited to the New World, it was impossible for these level 9 players to not have a backup plan.
"So even if I didn't make this suggestion, the chances of you surviving in the Seven Continents aren't low. Bai Shili also has a clone. Maybe he'll help you after they attack you. " The Shield King stopped smiling and said word by word, "But just like what was said in the communication device, as long as you agree to my commission, I'll tell you an important secret."
"I'm all ears."
"Do you know what the clan language of the Oxus Family is?"
"Polar night is coming." Lori slowly read out the clan language in the ancient steam language. In an instant, it was as if something in the distance had opened its eyes, as if her words had communicated with the other party's will and awakened it.
That feeling of trembling and familiarity made Li Xiang fall into a trance for a moment, and then he realized where this feeling came from.
He opened his palm, and the mark of the Paradise of Annihilation was intact, exuding an aura of absolute darkness.
It was this aura that resonated with the clan language that Lori was reading out.
"The clan language of the Five Thrones was born from the first chapter of the Book of Creation. That is the law of the Thrones. We used this law to create families that could pass on our bloodline, and made them the only five Thrones in the Seven Continents. The clan language was carved on the back of the Thrones when they were created. It was considered the embodiment of the highest will of the Five Thrones, and also the first rule that the family followed. "
The Supreme White King.
The Immortal Black King.
The Polar night is coming.
Endless life.
The glory of the family was above all.
These five clan language sentences were still clearly imprinted in Li Xiang's mind.
"From the beginning until now, other than the people of the Oxus Family, no one else understands the meaning of our clan language. Many people, including myself, thought that this clan language was related to the Polar night organization. The Polar night organization was created by the Polar night Magician, and his name is widely known throughout the Seven Continents. It can be said that as long as the Polar night is mentioned, it is impossible not to think of you. "
"But in fact … the real origin of the Polar night is the Oxus Family."
Li Xiang held his breath and listened to the Shield King's explanation quietly. It was as if he had solved a new mystery, and was one step closer to the truth.
"This clan language only appeared after I became a King. In fact, when we went to the Eternal Door, he did not have this name for the Polar night. It was only after he returned and the Five Thrones appeared, and he retreated to the border that it slowly became popular. Now, under my intentional confusion, very few people know about this. Plus, the Oxus Family rarely leaves the Northern Continent, and we are not as famous as the Polar night organization. "
"Why did you do this?" Li Xiang looked at him.
"This was the decision I made after discussing with the Polar night. Because at that time, both of us did not know what the real Polar night was, but we had to have this belief to support the continuation of the family. As I said earlier, the clan language is the embodiment of the highest will of the Five Kings, and it is also the standard by which we nurture the next generation. The Bai Family is proud of the White King, the Ji Family is led by the Black King, and the Yue Family is responsible for reproduction. "
"Then what about us? The Thrones have given me supreme power, but what is my responsibility? There is no answer. So we had to create an answer. Polar night proposed to evolve the Lighthouse Concept into his Polar night Concept, where everyone is equal, and there is no distinction between high and low. He is the lighthouse that guides the way forward for mankind. That was why there was the Polar night, the concept that carried out his life, and him, the Polar night Magician. "
Li Xiang and Lori were stunned.
So that was how the Polar night came about.
"So, Big Beard, you and Uncle Polar night wanted to inherit the will of the Lighthouse Master, and let the fire of mankind continue, so you made up this lie?" Lori asked softly.
"Yes. Since we want to create a Polar night Concept, we naturally can't lead people astray. After the Polar night, I also redefined the clan language of the Oakes Family. Just like how it is now, the Polar night is coming, and it refers to us following the will of a supreme being. Before he descends, we will abide by the creed and dedicate our lives to protecting mankind. "
At this point, even the Shield King showed a hint of doubt.
"I just wanted to make up a lie about protecting mankind. I didn't know when I added the previous part, and this interpretation and definition actually worked. After so many years, the Oakes Family has produced many talents, and the top players are all the best guardians. This shows that the power of the bloodline has indeed been passed down. "
"But that's still a lie you made up. Until today, there are still countless people who link our new Polar night with the Oakes Family. After this incident, I'm afraid they will unanimously believe that this Polar night is that Polar night." Li Xiang sighed. Only the two supreme Level 9 existences would dare to do such a thing.
Once exposed, the faith of the Oakes Family would collapse.
The prestige of the Five Great Thrones would also be weakened.
"This is also something that can't be helped. The Polar night is no longer around, and the only one who really knows this secret is me. When I'm no longer around, it will become the real clan language of the Oakes Family, and no one will doubt it anymore." The Shield King looked at him, his voice loud and clear, as if he was not worried about being heard. "But after seeing you, or more accurately, during the meeting of the Five Great Thrones, I realized that the real Polar night we have been waiting for is coming."
"Is this why Your Majesty spoke up for me that time?" Li Xiang recalled that meeting. The Shield King was the first king to stand on his side.
"Half of it. The other half is because your strength and talent are worthy of my help." The Shield King was honest. "When I first saw you, I felt the same aura as the clan language on the back of the throne. Lori, you felt it too, right?"
"Yes." Lori nodded slightly. She was the descendant of the Oakes Family who was closest to the Shield King's bloodline. "It's very strong, exactly the same."
This was also the reason why she was willing to follow Li Xiang to the Great Wall of Disaster.
"That aura came from the first chapter of the Book of Creation, but in reality, it came from an ancient existence as powerful as the Creator. Outside the Great Wall of Disaster is a vast sea of stars, and at the end of the sea of stars, it is said that there are countless supreme existences. They are the gods that control all the worlds. Compared to them, humans and disasters are just small waves in the long river of history. "
"The Polar night refers to you, Li Xiang, the Polar night player, the chosen successor of that supreme existence. The Oakes Family is the descendant of the clan that serves that supreme existence, and we inherit the will of our ancestors and carry it out to the end."
"I'm afraid that this is the true meaning of the clan language."
The Shield King looked at him and said faintly.
"As long as you stand on the side of the human camp, the Oakes Family will be your most loyal ally, and we will follow your will."
"So that's how it is." Li Xiang felt the connection between the aura of chaos in his body and the Shield King and Lori. The Shield King did not speak carelessly. In the unseen world, the three auras occasionally converged and mixed together.
If that chaos-like existence was the supporter that gave the Oakes Family power, then they were indeed the most reliable allies.
However, there were still two supreme auras in Li Xiang's body that were not weaker than the aura of chaos.
He could faintly feel that his evolution was still continuing.
