From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

"…Demon King Master, I don't understand what you mean."

Elki was silent for a moment, his eyes filled with depth and doubt.

"You've been in this icy place for too long. You don't even know how the world outside has changed."

The Cyclops can see the future, but their habit is to remain silent about it.

However, Elki is an outlier. Unlike the other Cyclops, she did not remain silent in accordance with the principle of keeping silent about future fragments. Instead, she actively guided various forces to discover the crisis in the Far North and tried to unite them to fight against the evil demons.

If the Cyclops could still see the future of the Sarkaz, then Elki should have set out to return to Kazdel long ago and try to get support from his compatriots.

But obviously, Elki still stayed in Sami, which only meant one thing: these Cyclops knew nothing about the vigorous four-nation expedition against Ursus on the Terra continent, and the subsequent establishment of the Terra United Council. As Si Ye's footprint and influence expanded on the Terra continent, their predictions about the future had become invalid.

"The current Demon Lord Theresa hopes that the Cyclops King's Court will return and contribute to the reconstruction of Kazdel."

Si Ye put away the imperial order in his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Ai Erqi.

"This is an order, not a negotiation. Take me to see your front line. The defense line that should have been handled by the four countries has become a single-handed attack on Sami. I feel embarrassed."

Although Sami has always been at the forefront of the fight against the evil demons in the North, each tribe has produced many talented people, and is also protected by the giant beast Sami and the beast lord Rama, as well as the assistance of the Cyclops.

But now, due to Si Ye's intervention, the evil demons that should have been resisted by Columbia, Ursus and Yan Kingdom have all been concentrated in Sami. In this case, even if the snow priests of those tribes had three heads and six arms, they would still be beaten to a bloody pulp when facing three times the number of evil demons and collapsed bodies.

"You are so rude..."

Although Typhon didn't know what the Demon King's Order was, she subconsciously wanted to say a few words for her adoptive mother, but Elki, who noticed it in advance, covered her mouth.

"…you…"

Elki frowned slightly, and her eyes suddenly seemed to lose focus, as if looking into the unknown distance. She wanted to rely on the power of the Cyclops to see through Si Ye's origins.

But no matter how hard Elki tried to look into the future, the scenes that used to pass through his eyes sparsely and ordinarily could not appear. He could only see a void shrouded in mist, and at the same time, an inexplicable fear weighed on his heart.

"Stop looking. If you keep looking, you'll be killed by the firewall's automatic counterattack."

Si Ye stopped Elqi from continuing his self-destructive behavior. His high-dimensional characteristics could not even be surpassed by Shu's power. If he had not controlled himself a little, Elqi would have been boiled dry by the psychic counterattack as soon as he activated his ability.

"I understand. I will take you wherever you want to go. Do you need me to arrange a safe place for your companions?"

After all the efforts were in vain, Elki showed an uncontrollable smile on his nervous face.

After all, for these races that can often see the future, the invisible future is the best future. It represents the unknown that has escaped the cage of fate, which is what they have been pursuing.

"My side is the safest place. Just lead the way. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid all the tribes and your compatriots will die."

Si Ye could already feel the earth trembling beneath his feet. In the distance, the Snow Fang Mountains, formed by the spines of giant beasts, were shaking. As an important line of defense against evil demons, a fierce battle must be going on there.

For this reason, even though Sami was seriously injured, he still mobilized his remaining strength to provide support to the tribe that worshipped him and fight against the invasion of evil spirits.

"Then please follow me. The road ahead is very steep, so please be careful."

Elki didn't hesitate, he picked up the angry Typhon and started to lead the way.

"Hey, where are we going? What kind of weird encrypted conversation is this? Boss, how come you also have the identity of a Sarkaz? Demon King's Envoy, that sounds so cool."

The confused little penguin successfully became the confused Liberi.

Si Ye looked at her, then looked at Elki who was walking quickly towards the mountains, and simply picked up Magellan in his hand.

"Boss, I can walk on my own and won't...hold you back..."

Being carried away was a bit too embarrassing, and Magellan wanted to struggle a little and show that he would not be a drag.

But when Magellan looked up, he discovered that even though Elki and Typhon, who were leading the way, were already running at full speed, Si Ye still maintained a leisurely look. Every time he took a step, it was as if space was crossed, and the distance of dozens of meters flashed by.

"Elki... What is a Demon King's Envoy?"

While on the way, Typhon, unable to contain his curiosity, whispered a question to his adoptive mother beside him.

"...Also, the power he uses seems evil..."

"It has no smell or characteristics, but rather a power similar to that of an ancestral spirit."

Elki shook her head. She did not feel the evil distortion and chaos from Si Ye, but the other party's ability to shrink the earth into an inch was not the spatial witchcraft of the Lich King's Court. Instead, it had a natural power similar to that of a giant beast lord.

"As for the Demon King's Envoy, he is an apostle who spreads the will of the Demon King Sarkaz. However, this should not have much to do with you."

Sarkaz are everywhere in the Terra continent, but not all branches of Sarkaz can feel the call of the Demon King. For a Sarkaz like Typhon, whose bloodline has been diluted by the Beast Master's blessing, the Demon King's orders are no longer important to her.

"Elki, you're treating me like a child again. I'm already grown up."

Typhon was somewhat dissatisfied. She was already a qualified "hunter" and could handle the task of stopping those evil spirits, but her adoptive mother Elki still treated her like a child.

"Good, Typhon has grown up..."

The steep terrain was as flat as the ground under their feet. After climbing over a not-so-high hill, they could vaguely see the unusual scenery in the distance.

The battle with evil spirits often does not involve any real fighting, and the power of evil spirits to distort reality is ultimately a kind of energy rather than a pure rule.

In the distance, messy floating lights danced in the mountain stream, twisted mists occasionally spread over the mountain peaks, and wild beasts that had collapsed and twisted into indescribable things crashed into the fortress engraved with inscriptions, causing waves of twisted and piercing howls.

"It's so lively, it's all a mess."

Psychic energy like a vibrant flame emanated from Si Ye's body, casting a layer of protection over the terrified Magellan, Typhon, and Elki.

Si Ye gazed into the distance, his eyes fixed on the huge star gate structure at the end of the ice field. Looking at the bizarre and dazzling universe inside the gate, he swallowed.

"Pidan, I'm here to kill you!"

...

Chapter 366: Sammy's Depths

Facing the evil demon's collapsing power directly is a very dangerous behavior, because cognition will amplify the distortion caused by the collapse, and the distortion will evoke the deepest fear in people's hearts.

But now the Snowfang Mountains have become a mess, with unusual phenomena caused by the collapse force everywhere. Typhon and Elki are ready to assist Si Ye and Magellan in resisting the influence of the anti-evil force, but they are surprised to find that the strange light and flames dancing on their bodies can actually make them immune to any collapse force.

“Like ancestral spirits…”

Typhon muttered to himself.

The ancestral spirit mentioned by the Sami people is the Deer Beast Lord who is active in Sami. Compared with those bored beast lords who have nothing to do in the heart of the Terra continent, this Deer Beast Lord can be said to have devoted all his energy to fighting against the evil demons.

It often spreads melted snow called "love" in Sami, allowing this handful of melted snow to help passing travelers or tribal members escape the effects of collapse.

In a branch ending of Sami Rouge, the Deer Beast Lord even sacrificed his own life to perish together with Infinite Echo Cresson who was about to leave the star gate. It can be said that he devoted himself to his cause.

"What are you going to do? Do you need my assistance?"

There was a glint in Elqi's eyes, and he wanted to see if there was anything he could do to help Si Ye.

"Just follow me."

Shaking his head, Si Ye patted Magellan, who wanted to use the drone to record the grand scene before him.

Evil spirits can use cognition as a carrier. If Magellan were to make a videotape of it, it would become the Terran version of "The Ring".

“Don’t take pictures, don’t record.”

“Oh, we can’t take pictures.”

Knowing that he had done something wrong, Magellan quickly put away the equipment in his hand and stared blankly at the bizarre mountains in front of him through the thin psychic light.

"Is this the truth hidden in the Sami Icefield..."

"I will follow you closely."

Elqi nodded heavily, looking like he was willing to follow Si Ye's lead.

"Very good, then let me...have a good meal."

Si Ye took a step towards the steep cliff, and seemed to be about to step into empty air. But before the kind-hearted Typhon could warn her, the huge traction pulled them and made them stagger. The surrounding scenery passed by like a stream of light, and the next moment everyone actually came to a higher ridge.

"Is this... non-linear movement?"

Elki, who was smiling just a second ago, suddenly looked terrified.

She originally thought that Si Ye's way of moving in a way that could shrink the distance into an inch was a variation of the Beast Master's magical power or space witchcraft, but after actually experiencing it, she found that this feeling of distorted distance was actually closer to the evil demon collapse paradigm that she had been dealing with for many years.

An intelligent demon in human form? Is that even possible? Could she have fallen for the demon's trick?

"Strictly speaking, it's a combination of the two paradigms of non-linear action and movement. I also added a little bit of the "Heaven and Earth Freedom" from the giant beast Ya."

Si Ye smiled at Elki, provoking the Cyclops's tense nerves, until he saw Elki's staff began to glow, then he hurriedly waved his hand.

"You're kidding! There's no other demon in the world as rational, clear-headed, and organized as me."

This made sense, and made Elki and Typhon, who were about to launch an attack, stop what they were doing.

Demons represent chaos and disorder. The humans and things they infect and collapse into will often collapse into the abyss of disorder. Si Ye speaks clearly and can even joke, so he doesn't seem like a demon in human skin, but...

“Why you might use the collapsing paradigm…”

In the knowledge of Elki, it is impossible for anyone to use the collapse paradigm, a product of the devil's own distortion of reality. Even the Witch King Herhunzoren only understood some of the characteristics of the devil's power with the help of the Lich King's Court, and summarized it into his own notes.

As for complete mastery? How could a creature of order master the power of chaos?

“Maybe because I like to eat?”

Si Ye spoke the truth that Elqi could not understand at all, and he kept walking, leading everyone over one mountain after another, moving deeper into Sami.

The sky had turned leaden gray at some point, and black veins like branches spread across the snow and mountains. Weird, sharp screams rang out one after another, and black snowflakes fell on the curtain formed by psychic flames, making a hissing sound.

Si Ye looked at Elki who seemed to be hesitant to speak. He patted the Cyclops on the shoulder and stopped.

The front has completely turned into the home of the evil demons. The distorted space has revealed the star gate that should have been blocked by the mountains, and an endless ice field is revealed before everyone.

"Don't worry, you can think of me as a professional who specializes in exterminating these subspace creatures. Hmm... the small demon tastes pretty good. I wonder how the big one tastes."

What is the devil's taste? It's pretty good!

After hearing Si Ye's explanation, Elqi not only did not feel at ease, but her originally virtuous and dignified expression became even more strange.

As a Cyclops, Elki should have been disgusted with the inevitable future that she observed, but at this moment, she could not see any future, and she missed the sense of security that could see fragments of the future.

"It's so lively."

The location where Si Ye and the others were located had been covered by a huge collapsing area. The wandering evil demons saw Si Ye and the others in the disorderly chaos and attacked them ferociously from all directions.

"Hey, hey, my drone."

Magellan, frightened by the evil demon, subconsciously released her drone. Then the electronic parts of the drone quickly aged under the influence of the collapse field, and a cluster of bright electric sparks burst out and fell down the mountain.
