Chapter 225: Kun & Ya

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the clear noise of the waves entered their ears, the people of Scarn Village coiled in fear.

The wisest of all was still the village chief who shouted, “Tsunami! Run!”

Could a tsunami travel 30km? It was definitely possible! Besides, the Purple Moon was already hanging in the sky, so what else was impossible? It had even wiped out a powerful civilization overnight.

The villagers were pale. The icy plains were considerably near to the sea, and everyone knew how terrifying the ocean of the Purple Moon era was.

The first person responded by running away. In turn, he started a chain reaction that caused the other villagers to scatter away in panic.

However, in the midst of the frenzy, a voice echoed throughout the village, “Chief, that’s no tsunami! It’s...a monster!” The only voice that could have traveled so far and be heard by many must be the warcry of a Purple Moon Warrior.

Nevertheless, the news the voice carried over was much more terrifying than a tsunami. A monster! Since the dawn of the Purple Moon era, mankind had been under constant attacks by new species of animals, and they called the new species ‘monsters’.

The voice caught everyone’s attention for a second before they ran even faster.

“Don’t panic! Don’t run! The monster is in the lake!” The Purple Moon Warrior’s face flushed as he tried to explain the situation better but failed to because what happened was beyond his wildest imagination.

“Everyone, stay where you are!” the village chief also bellowed. Since he was the village leader, he must have the strength of a Purple Moon Warrior and his voice somewhat calmed the villagers. He was the most respected and most reliable person in Scarn Village after all.

Everyone stayed where they were. The Purple Moon Warrior ran to the village chief in a hurry. Breathing heavily, he tried to explain, “Chief, the lake...a big lake...a monster...in the water.”

“Tulgar, are you drunk?” The chief looked stiff, but since there was certainly no cold wind, it must be shock. The icy plains spanned a few hundred kilometers, so how could the Purple Moon Warrior have possibly spotted a lake?

Even if there was one, under such extreme weather, it would be frozen. In the Argee Icy Plains, a lake would only appear during summer which was not very long.

“I’m not drunk, Chief. I’m a Purple Moon Warrior,” Tulgar responded with a solid fact and an appalled expression. As a Purple Moon Warrior, he could never be drunk. Even if he drank a few liters of alcohol, he could snap out of his stupor in seconds.

The chief’s expression changed for the worse. He said loudly, “Everyone, stay in the village and check if the quake caused any damage to our property or if there are any injuries. Tulgar, lead the way. Alto, select five other Purple Moon Warriors to come along. I’m going to find out what happened.”

The words of the village chief were stern directions, so despite their curiosity blooming, the villagers and Purple Moon Warriors followed his orders.

Truth be told, everyone mostly believed what Tulgar said. If there was no lake, why would the noise of waves have sounded so clear? Was it really a tsunami? That was highly unlikely. If there really was a tsunami that could travel 30km, by the time the villagers could hear the waves, they would already be able to see the tidal waves as tall as mountains crashing down on them.

About 2km outside Scarn Village, the village chief, Ful Galin, was overwhelmed by the vast and boundless lake before his eyes.

How could a lake have popped out from nowhere? And in such a size! The reflection was shiny on the surface and the end was nowhere in sight.

Was it an underground lake? Did it come to the surface because of the quake earlier?! No, definitely not. If it was an underground lake, what would those islands on the lake be? Underground islands?

What a joke! How could an island filled with rich trees and plants be an underground island and have been under the icy cold plains all along!?

The lake was calm while a thin layer of mist blanketed the surface. Due to its appearance, the surrounding scenery looked rather unfamiliar.

Where were the colorful Rockrow guide flags that the village used to mark the roads? What about the Borin Slope and the Farsu Mountain Ridge further away?

Everything that they knew was gone! If he had not been born and bred here and Scarn Village was just behind him further away, Ful Garin might have thought that he was dreaming.

The continuously overwhelming scene almost robbed Ful Garin of his emotions. He was expressionless when he gave his next order, “Alto, go get the small blimp over.”

A terrifying and impossible thought crept into his mind, but it was still the same old saying: the Purple Moon was already hanging in the sky, and the powerful old civilization had been wiped out overnight, so what else was impossible?

In fact, it was rather easy to verify his thoughts since the answer would be revealed with a bird’s eye view.

“Chief, I suggest flying the blimp around the lake from a distance because...” Tulgar had to voice his opinion in the face of the unknown. The terrifying scene from a moment ago overthrew his understanding. He wished he could drink some alcohol to get inebriated and forget about it.

As usual, Tulgar had been patrolling around the icy plains, trying to check whether the icy silver spark wolves had gathered in the area or if there were some other ferocious beasts.

However, after the violent quake, a huge lake had appeared out of the sky! No, it was not appropriate to say it came from the sky. It was neither from the ground either. The lake had appeared out of thin air!

As the quake continued, the lake grew bigger and bigger. He had watched it all with his own eyes as if he was dreaming. He first saw a small lake, but as the blurry mist around it dissipated, another area of the lake had appeared. Then, as the surrounding mist scattered, it had revealed even more of the lake.

Tulgar had been beyond overwhelmed by the scene and was stupefied until the lake water soaked his feet. He realized that if he stayed, he would be swallowed whole by the lake.

He ran as disorderly as he could be, even tripping during his Transient Steps, but it did not stop him. He had crawled, rolled, and hopped his way back to the village in fear that if the lake continued to expand, it would flood the entire village.

Fortunately, the lake had stopped expanding 2km outside Scarn Village. Alas, after that, Tulgar ran into possibly the most dangerous encounter of his life!

Fear lingered in his heart after the dangerous encounter. Instinctively, he avoided the memories, hence he was so reluctant to recall them again.

Nevertheless, after some consideration, the encounter was not actually that bizarre. After he outran the expanding lake, he had sensed a chill behind him, but he did not turn around. He had instinctively used his Transient Steps twice and dashed away at least another 200 meters.

Then, he had heard the loud noise of two rows of teeth chomping on ice. The loud and crisp noise was deafening to the ears.

In his panic, Tulgar had turned around for a glance and saw a giant monster that resembled a fist. Its body was covered with glaring black scales while it had the face of a carp from the old civilization with giant whiskers at its mouth. The two huge fins in front of its chest made it look like wings that were spread out before it flew up into the air.

When Tulgar had turned around, it probably reached the maximum height of its flight as it dove back into the lake, so he could not get a clearer look at its face.

All he remembered was that chomp. The dagger-like teeth were 50 meters long and 8 meters wide! What the hell was that?!

As Tulgar explained, he recalled the scene and his face turned as pale as a sheet, but before he could finish, a sharp eagle called piercingly from the sky. It was a Loki blizzard eagle of the icy plain, an indubitable powerful aerial predator. As a Level 2 vicious beast, it could rival a rank 1 Purple Moon Warrior.

It seemed like the sudden appearance of the lake attracted the Loki blizzard eagle, so it flew over and glided around 100 meters above the lake surface.

It was at that moment that a huge shadow appeared under the lake. It was approximately 70 to 80 meters long and its fins were as huge as wings. Its tail waved vigorously like it was adjusting its direction to be in sync with the Loki blizzard eagle.

“That’s the monster!” Tulgar’s expression twisted into an ugly one when the shadow appeared. What he saw earlier seemed to have been a smaller one. This lake, which volume or size remained unknown, had more than one fishy monster.

Even without Tulgar’s warning, everyone else saw it. Even the villagers on the walls of the village witnessed the dark shadow under the water from afar.

The Loki blizzard eagle was a giant eagle gifted with natural wind element talent. Although its reflexes were extremely quick as it spread its wings wide open, reaching 15 meters in length and soaring up into the sky immediately, it was useless.

Terrified, everyone saw the strange black fish stiffen its scales like the feathers of a bird. Its body instantly grew, and with the flap of its wing-like fins, it surged, allowing it to jump out of the water and swallow the poor Loki blizzard eagle.

Even though it was just an eagle with a wind element talent had not been fully activated, still...

“Chief, should we consider moving?” Alto rose in the sky on the blimp and saw the strange fish plop back into the lake.

The moment the water splashed, Alto, who was known for his powerful sighting talent, spotted other aquatic beings in the water. They were terrifyingly huge aquatic beings!

Ful Garin wiped his face in astonishment. Move? It might very well happen, but they would also have to leave behind the solid walls of ice that had been built by their ancestors. The tall walls of ice had been built throughout many generations with special materials to allow it to remain frozen for at least 10,000 years.

They would also have to leave behind the huge food reserves that they had buried underground using the weather of the icy plains. One thing worth noting was that digging out the food reserves all of a sudden would cause immeasurable damage to the village if it was not buried back in time.

Ful Garin’s expression remained as though he was numb, but he managed to call out, “Blimp.” As the village chief, he must first know what happened before any decision was made.

Then, the blimp arrived, with the only scientist-to-be from the village.

The blimp had sufficient fuel and the best motor in the village installed in it. It floated in the sky and moved along the lakeside at a decent speed. They were trying to guide it to travel to the point where the lake had first appeared.

Ful Garin stood blankly in the sealed cabin, gazing upon the vast lake. Meanwhile, the scientist-to-be beside him was taking records while sizing up the lake with a pair of binoculars and calculating the surface area of the lake.

Then, before the blimp flew to the end of the lake, strange terrains like forests, jungles of mountains, and mountain ridges covered in ice appeared before everyone.

Where was the sea? Where was the Floating Ice Sea that was 30km away from Scarn Village?

They flew straight forward for almost 500km and flew across a huge expanse of never-before-seen terrain before finally seeing the coastline.

Ful Garin’s speculation was verified. All this was a new icy land that had appeared out of nowhere!

Was it a drifting tectonic plate that merged with their own icy plains? The theory of how the new land appeared was...

Even Ful Garin did not believe himself. He felt that it was impossible for him to hide this from the world, and he was not capable of that either.

After the reappearance of both the Dragon Army and the son of Tang Feng, Tang Ling, rising to the world stage a few days ago, the world was about to receive another piece of astonishing news.

A new land had appeared out of nowhere! Where exactly did it come from?!

...

The garden landscape held the essence of Moon Bridge City of ancient Huaxia. Layer after layer, the scenery traced every step, appearing like a perfect painting regardless of which angle one looked at it from.

With the fake hills possessing the grandness and uniqueness of the greatest mountains of the world, its presence was overwhelming. Every single plant and tree on the fake mountains brought the scenery to life.

The ponds, from which the source of water was unknown, were crystal clear. Fish would jump out of the water at times as half-bloomed water lilies floated on the surface, making it a beautiful scene to enjoy.

The long corridors were crooked in different directions and led to an elegant pavilion.

In a white long robe sewn with snowy-white wintersweet shrub embroidery patterns, Kun was standing in the pavilion, appearing to be bored.

While the agarwood incense in the pavilion emitted tender and wavy smoke, the wine on the stone table slowly got cold.

“Pretty Kun, if the scenery bores you, why not give it a change? How about the ancient Eastern style? Or you can try to build a single-legged pavilion with the bamboos from the Tianfu Continent.”

Beside Kun was a child. The child had a bun on his head. Despite his flat chest, the child wore a girl’s dress. The child looked delicate and pretty, but the flattery was also very pleasing. It must be tough for him. Despite being only 20 cm tall, his flattery skill was almost ten times stronger.

Pak!

Kun practically slapped him into a pancake and said softly, “Your ideas are always this boring. Also, don’t call me Pretty Kun.”

Clap!

The pancake of a face popped and the child returned to his height of 20cm, but this time, he transformed into a hot lady.

Kun frowned and slammed the woman into a pancake again. His words were on the tip of his tongue, but suddenly, his ever-lazy look changed a little and he said in a grave voice, “Who? Who got the access?”

As he spoke, Kun floated away quickly by stepping on water. His long, creamy pink robe was reflected by the garden landscape, adding endless grace and elegance to the scenery. The garden looked like it was in heaven and he was a deity floating away.

At the same time, one of the fake mountains was blinking colorfully. The 20cm-tall child that was slapped into a pancake said loudly without reverting to its former shape, “Pretty Kun, Ugly Ya is requesting for communication.”

“Patch it through.” Kun frowned slightly. Bored, he had been waiting for a very long time. Had something interesting finally arrived?

Following Kun’s permission, the fake mountain with the colorful light disappeared and was replaced by a beam of light. Inside the beam, a blurry figure slowly took shape, but before the person fully appeared, a voice was heard.

“Shorty 20, who are you calling Ugly Ya?”
