Capítulo 771: 142. The Expert Understands Destiny_3
“Within our kind, though our entire species has perished, our figures and stories still live in the Northern Realm. The people we protected sing our praises, and partners with whom we shared drinks and rrint have kept to the single-password command I left behind for a thousand years. Perhaps, such an ending is the best for us of the Phoenix Species.”
“Though we exhausted everything as a species and never crossed the chasm-like Mythical Rank, we unexpectedly beca gods in the faith of the North Realm people. This is sothing countless Mythical Species, even True Gods, struggled to accomplish…”
Fisher turned his head to look at Valentina beside him. His intense questioning of the Moon Princess was not out of suspicion of her intentions; after all, so much ti had passed, and delving into the sentints left by a deceased person was utterly aningless.
He was simply concerned about how to save the dying Valentina. Her human body couldn’t possibly endure the blood of a Phoenix forever. Even if she didn’t co to the Wutong Tree, she would die outside. However, the Moon Princess had explained a lot but had not provided a solution, which greatly troubled Fisher but seed to make him understand the aning of her words, so he asked again,
“So, does calling Valentina back here also relate to the fate knot you ntioned? Can this resolve her bloodline issue?”
“I don’t know, what do you think?”
“…”
Not receiving an answer, Fisher sighed and closed his eyes. His hand pressed on the console, following the Moon Princess’s instructions to control the chaotic spatial currents and lock the Wutong completely, while all its internal chanisms opened. At this mont, the fully sealed Wutong turned into the final battlefield for him, Erwin, and this base.
“Open, open, open!”
Amidst the chanical sounds coming from inside the Wutong Tree, Fisher looked down at the shimring light of the Ice below and whispered, not knowing whether he was asking the Moon Princess or himself,
“You have all done your best to provide everything you can, but the unarrived deadlock was not resolved by your own hands. Having sacrificed so much and waited for thousands of years, from now on, if any descendant makes one wrong move, you all will lose everything…”
The Moon Princess chuckled. However, it was clear that the energy left in the relic she inhabited was dwindling, and her voice beca increasingly faint and indistinct. She said,
“My mother and I are well aware of this, but after all, fate is unpredictable. A wise man should seize the mont, and a virtuous person must accept his destiny. Since a choice was made, there should be no room for regret… The rest, I leave to you.”
The Moon Princess’s gentle voice ca to a sudden halt, the small orb held in her skeletal hands shattered into cold, lifeless fragnts upon her final words.
Next to her, Valentina squeezed her palm secretly after hearing the Moon Princess’s last words. Looking at Fisher, who was deep in thought beside her, she smiled and tugged at his sleeve, saying,
“Don’t worry about these things for now, Fisher. You still need to deal with the base left by the Phoenix and the enemy pursuing you, right?”
Seeing that Fisher remained unmoved and still deep in thought, she who was sitting on the ground, pulled his large hand to her cheek, feeling the touch and warmth of her skin. Fisher could not help but turn his head to look at her as Valentina sat on the ground, looked up at him, and smiled, raising the Magic Ring on her hand,
“Don’t worry, the ring you gave will always protect , Fisher.”
“…You’ll be fine, Valentina.”
Watching the ever-optimistic Valentina in front of him, Fisher took a deep breath and hoisted her onto his back again. He looked up towards the top of the Wutong Tree. The glass that should have revealed the moonlit sky seed completely distorted now, no longer clearly showing even the aurora. At the sa ti, the doors of the Wutong Tree that were originally tightly shut loosened, letting Fisher instantly feel an extrely terrifying soul fluctuation behind a door in the middle of the tree.
And at the entrance, the direction from which they had co, Erwin who had been pursuing him also entered this place.
Just as Fisher had guessed, Erwin went straight toward the base.
