Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva
Chapter 605: The Valley is Uninhabited
[The super-light-speed flight you are on has now arrived at the destination, Four-leaf Crystal Star Region-B2-7621 (Emerald Skirt), the current time is 3:42:55 in the morning]
Amid a burst of mechanical prompts, Tilan opened her eyes and looked out the window at the sky that was already in the early morning.
Is it already night? Most people are resting at this time.
After stepping out of the super-light-speed plane, Tilan entered the terminal surrounded by a group of members. Because she did not notify the Four-leaf Crystal Star Region of her arrival in advance, there was no formal organization to greet her at this point.
But this is exactly what she wanted. She didn't want to make a big fuss about this operation.
After waiting at the airport for a few minutes, Tilan boarded the shuttle to the north of the planet. Before meeting with the governor of the star region, she wanted to meet two teachers who had passed by.
One of them was the ghost princess who lived in seclusion in the back mountain of Iridium Academy, and the other was Lady Isabella.
When they arrived at Iridium Academy, the time zone here was still late at night. Except for a few teachers on duty who were surprised to see Tilan, no one else knew about the girl's arrival.
"Don't bother you, I'll leave after a short while." She greeted the teacher on duty, led a small group of people through the mountainous area where the academy was located, and then entered the deep pool of the valley shrouded in night fog alone.
The air here was very cold, and the thick mist seemed to take away some heat with every step forward. When Tilan arrived at the edge of the deep pool, the surrounding air had already entered dozens of degrees below zero, but the ground was still green and wet, without ice.
The lake surface where ice flowers bloomed in the past was now empty, and the cold pool was also particularly quiet. Standing by the pool, Tilan had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, when she let go of her consciousness to perceive the entire valley and the bottom of the water, there was no figure of the ghost princess. Only the icy cold left in the air reminded her that it was not that there was no one here, but that the people who once lived here had already left.
"Gone..." Tilan stood by the lake with a bit of disappointment, looking at the extremely silent lake water.
At that time, she had just entered high school and was still in the stage of youth and ignorance. This ghost teacher taught her many things with his extensive knowledge and life experience, especially the heroic epic that seemed to be experienced personally, which made her heart become broader and she had more respect for history.
After walking around the lake, Tilan still jumped into the lake without giving up. The cold lake water immediately submerged her, and then a shining light appeared beside her, swimming to various places at the bottom of the lake to illuminate here.
The lake water is clear, and the underwater world is also illuminated clearly. Because the temperature here is extremely low, there are no animals and plants, and it is very empty.
However, the rectangular ice grid in the empty space in the center of the lake bottom still attracted the girl's attention. With that shape, she would not be surprised to say that there was a coffin here before.
Swimming slowly towards there, at the bottom of the ice grid, Tilan finally saw a line of subtle engraved words. These words were engraved on the ice layer. If Tilan didn't come back today, it would probably melt and disappear in a few years.
'Don't look for me, remember what I said to you at the end, and go to fulfill your mission. '
The handwriting was very elegant, and the words were also very ancient. When Tilan touched it, she could vaguely sense the other party's mood when writing this line of handwriting.
Slightly nostalgic and reluctant, with some expectations and hope.
The last words said to me, Tilan closed her eyes and tried her best to recall, and the conversation that day emerged one by one in front of her.
'"Come to think of it, Heshia, you are about to graduate." The ghost princess remembered something.
"There is still a year."
"One year, it will be very fast. Now that you are cooperating with Gray Dust Crystal, you should be able to control some personnel."
"If possible, tell Gray Dust Crystal that you hope to gather some girls of similar age, similar ideas and good qualifications."
"What are these people?"
"Choir, choir, probably that's what it's called. They will be your assistants, collaborators, and extensions of your will."
"Is there such a need? This seems to be the first time I've heard of it." Heshia blinked and looked at the ghost princess.
"Is it gone now?" The ghost princess was puzzled, but she changed her mind and spoke.
"Well, I roughly understand. It seems that there is no rush for this matter." She pondered for a while.
"But the training of singers can indeed be done. You should have a lot of influence in Edes now, and you can persuade the board to recruit students who are willing to learn the secret arts related to singers."
"There are very few people with the talent of singers, but many secret arts of singers do not necessarily require singers to use them. Other extraordinary people can also learn them, but the effect is not as significant as that of singers."
"I have met someone at Saint Ingo. Although she does not have the talent of a singer, her secret arts related to singers are also very strong." Heshia thought of the Saint Ingo student named "Meidi".
"They... This is also a tradition. It is probably kept out of habit." The ghost princess said slowly, and then shook her head slightly.
"As an academy named after the elf royal family, it is their responsibility to train "singers", but there are too few people with the talent of singers now, and I guess not many people remember this."
...
"Don't be trapped by the so-called origin and past. Humans are as free as the wind and cannot be bound by anything."
"I have seen such a person. She is extremely simple, with a simple and kind mind. You can say that this is a character that only exists in fairy tales, but it is such a person who has achieved countless great deeds and miracles. Even I can only look up and sigh."
"Since fate has given you this flawless gem, all you have to do is pick it up and speak out the most real and flawless wish in your heart."
The past scenes passed by one by one, and Tilan recalled what the teacher said that day over and over again.
It turned out that the teacher told her the true use of the singing girl's ability at that time, and asked her to summon my choir and chorus. Tilan was surprised at how important the words of the ghost princess were at that time, but unfortunately she did not understand the true meaning of this sentence at that time.
It is no wonder that Orles was able to get so many "singing festivals" to help so quickly. It turns out that the "Saint Ingo Academy" branches spread across various star fields exist for this purpose. Thinking further, Isanissa, who established the federation, is a girl with elf blood. The fact that Saint Ingo Academy can be opened in so many star fields and occupy the top few places is probably also influenced by her.
Elves, chanters, the flower-crowned girl who sang for the world tree, the world supported by the golden twin trees, this series of nouns and meanings are linked together, vaguely outlining the outline of the past world.
No wonder people often say that the culture and ideas of the Sixth Age are actually directly inherited from the Third Age, skipping the chaotic end of the Fourth Age and the dark Fifth Age.
Swimming out of the water, Tilan surfaced and walked on the lake. With every step, the lake water in front of her condensed into solid ice, and at the same time, drops of water fell from her body and melted again in the lake. When the girl stood on the shore again, her clothes and hair had become refreshing and breathable.
Reaching out her hand, a stream of air came from the distant sky, carrying the silver moonlight through the mountains, and countless leaves in the mountains rustled, like a light song. Such a sound made many sleeping animals wake up in the middle of the night. Some of them crawled out of the cave, some drilled out of the grass, and some floated up from the water, looking up at the night sky with silver moonlight.
In the clear and cloudless night sky, a young figure turned his back to the moonlight, raised his palm lightly, and pointed his fingertips in the distance. Then the flowing mountain wind gathered from all directions, forming spirals, blowing away the cold air and mist above the pool, until finally, the cold moonlight shone into the lake, forming ripples.
With both hands gently placed at her sides, her dress and hair fluttered slowly like a fairy in mythology, Tilan lowered her eyelashes and looked at the lake below.
"I'm leaving, teacher. I may not come back here for a long time. I don't know if you can hear what I'm saying now."
"Although I haven't been studying with you for a long time, I will never forget your teachings. Thank you for helping me, who was still weak and inferior, to slowly see the magnificence and vastness of this world."
"As you said, humans are as free as the wind, and nothing can restrain them."
"Now I have made up my mind to do what I should do."
"Goodbye, Teacher Yi Xue Ge Lin, who was once the last elf queen and the eternal ice flower princess." She is not a fool. Although the teacher never mentioned her identity, from the scenes of memory, Tilan gradually guessed the other party's true identity, especially the iconic ice flower.
When she walked out of the library of Saint Sokanas, Tilan knew the true identity of the teacher in her heart, but unfortunately the other party did not leave her the opportunity to verify and ask.
Remembering the appearance of the lake in the valley, Tilan jumped up, passed through the mountains with the night wind, and returned to the campus of Yuanting Academy. After explaining to the teacher on duty again, Tilan boarded the shuttle and left here.
In the valley, the breeze was still blowing, and the leaves were rustling and falling. It was cold and quiet until a long time later, bursts of tiny fireflies appeared in the forest, and then slowly gathered by the lake to form a standing figure. She was dressed in a classical and gorgeous dress, showing the beautiful and flawless figure of a woman, and she had a temperament and demeanor that ordinary people could not achieve. That kind of indifference, majesty, and gentleness, several different charms were perfectly integrated together.
"This child is growing up so fast." She looked at the cold moon in the night sky.
"That weak and resolute look always reminds me of the familiar person, who clearly sees everything, but refuses to give up, facing this world with the last bit of tenderness that will never dissipate."
"I don't know what kind of world you will bring in the end, or how many times the human civilization will have to fall before it can truly find a way out in the future."
"The Mechanical Council, the Original Heart, the Tree of Life Sect, the Deep Sea Union, the Cloud of Tracing, the struggle that has continued since the Twilight Age has not yet had a real result."
She stood under the moon for a long time until her body turned into fireflies again and dissipated in the night.
——————
After leaving the North District, Tilan returned to Arpeggio City, but unfortunately Madam Isabella was not there today.
"Madam should be in the South District at this time." Butis, also known as Yulan Duojia, told Tilan the whereabouts of Madam Isabella.
"I didn't expect you to come back so suddenly today. I didn't know about it." Yulan Duojia has very little work in the maid shop now. She spends more time traveling and taking pictures, learning about the habitats and lives of extraordinary animals. "I will probably become an independent animal recorder in the future. Look, this is my new partner in the deep jungle of the south." She said as she picked up the huge and hemispherical insect beside her.
This bug looks like a ‘woodbug’, with a round body, about the same height as Yulan Duojia. After picking it up, the dense row of arthropods in front of it moved in the air, and the hair on it was clearly visible.
“Well, overall it is a bit cute, but it is still very scary.” Tilan used her arms to block the front, looking at the big bug with a little curiosity and fear.
“It’s okay, it’s actually quite well-behaved and cute, and its personality is much better than that big spider.” Yulan Duojia complained about the big spider before.
“Hiss——” A familiar sound came from Yulan Duojia’s head, and then the big spider jumped directly on her head. With the current size of the big spider, it almost covered Yulan Duojia’s entire body under its eight-legged velvet claws.
“Stupid, stupid, don’t scratch my hair, it’s going to mess it up.” Yulan Duojia struggled, stretched out her hand, forcibly propped up the big spider, and threw it aside.
“Go, Xiaoqiu, hold it down!” It turns out that this new partner is called Xiaoqiu, Tilan thought.
Although Yulandujia gave the order, only the small ball of sequence 4 was obviously a little afraid of the big spider of withering sequence 5. It shrank back and just stayed in Yulandujia's arms, scratching its claws in the air and curling up.
Seeing this, Yulandujia was not polite and directly picked up the brown-black "ball" and threw it out, hitting the big spider on the head.
Such an attack was not painful to the big spider. Instead, it was very curious about what kind of guy it was. It pressed it under its body and kept fiddling with it. Unfortunately, the small ball was tightly rolled together and did not give it a flaw.
In response, the big spider turned it around and bit it with its pliers. Unfortunately, the round body and the hardened shell that was harder than steel made the big spider really have no good way. In the end, it could only spit silk to trap this guy and then tie him up.
"Hiss--" Beside the two people, the big spider pushed the ball and kept spinning, as if playing a game, and the two people sitting in the circle were a little bit amused and didn't know what to say for a while.
After a long time, Tilan and Youlan Duojia finished their heart-to-heart talk. Tilan stood up, stopped the big spider, and then rescued the small ball from it and held it in his arms again.
"I'm afraid I can't help you too much in the future. After all, as a singer, I was only a half-baked one. I was not as steady as Chi Wanxin, the 'Red Carnation' of the same period, nor as talented as Masha, the 'Falling Clouds' who was a few years younger than me." Youlan Duojia talked about her own experience.
"However, if you are talking about the Four-Leaf Crystal Star Region, then I still have a little face. After all, I have been the darling of the Four-Leaf Crystal for nearly forty years, until you and Pulin appeared and took away my favor." Although the outside world does not have a high opinion of 'Green Snake' Youlan Duojia, and she often gets into trouble and plays around, but no matter what, for the people in her own star region, she is always the closest singer.
Only this singer, people in the star field can go to her concert without taking a long super-light-speed flight, and can get close to her. She has the same growth environment and experience as you, and she will speak for your star field in the federation and fight for benefits.
Therefore, no matter which singer, she can always easily get the support of the people in her star field, which is also her trump card and basic base for future activities.
"Well, being old also has its advantages. Many of the people who liked me back then are now powerful figures in the star field. They may not listen to me completely, but I am the middleman to help you. Don't make the process too easy." Yulan Duojia raised her finger confidently.
"Have a good sleep today. I will accompany you to see Lady Isabella tomorrow. She is probably discussing future issues with the group of people in the star field."
"When we appear together, we will definitely be able to kill~" She encouraged Tilan in a joking tone.
At this moment, Tilan had a lot of things to complain about, but in the end she held back and just thought of it as a way of thanking this senior for his great help.
