When he saw another person appearing on the "Island of Steel" trapped by Modir Wilder, Gao Wen immediately raised his eyebrows instinctively and felt a hint of incongruity. Watermark Advertising Test   Watermark Advertising Test

The timing of this blonde woman's appearance...is a coincidence.

In the notes, Modir, who had recovered from awakeness, obviously had similar doubts.

"... After Miss Melita left and never returned, I realized that the weirdness of this Iron Island might be extraordinary. Under normal circumstances, it should be impossible for the dragon clan to come to this island on its own initiative, so I was even prepared to be trapped here for a long time. The appearance of this blonde woman... did not bring me any hope and joy at the first time, but only nervousness and anxiety.

"In this weird place, any person or thing that appears without warning is enough to be wary.

"With staying alert, I took the initiative to ask the woman about her origin, and she said her name - she said that her name is Enya, and she lives in a nearby mainland.

"The nearby continent - that is obviously the kingdom of dragons. So I asked her if she was a dragon that changed into a human form. Her answer was very strange... She said that she was indeed a member of the dragon society, but whether it was a dragon... it didn't matter.

"This made me more confused, but my experience in that tower taught me a lesson: in this weird sea, it is best not to be too curious. Knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing, so I didn't ask anything.

"At the same time, I also discovered one thing: this woman who claimed to be Enya would show a faint resistance and disgust when she occasionally looked at the giant tower. She felt a little uncomfortable when she talked to me. It seemed that she didn't like this place very much, but for some reason, she had to come here... Who is she? What exactly did she want to do?

"I was full of doubt, but I didn't ask, and the woman who claimed to be Enya looked me up and down for a long time. She seemed to be observing something very carefully, which made me feel uncomfortable.

"After observing for several minutes, she broke the silence and said that she was here to help...

"'You touched something you shouldn't have touched here, and fortunately I had time to pull you out--now the hidden dangers on you have been eliminated'--this was what she said.

"I recalled the memories that disappeared out of thin air in the tower, the few remaining scenes, and the sporadic clues left on my notes. I suddenly realized that I could survive was not due to luck or my strong willpower, but because I received help from outside. This woman who claimed to be Enya... seems to be the one who helped her.

“I expressed my gratitude to her, she accepted it with ease, and then she asked me if I wanted to leave the island and go back to the ‘place I should go back’ – she said she had the ability to send me back to the human world and was happy to do so.

"What else can I say? Of course I do!

"Although all this reveals a weirdness, and although this woman who claims to be Enya appears too coincidental, I think I have no choice... Without supplies, my condition is getting worse and worse, unable to accurately navigate, and trapped in the Arctic by the storm, even a top legendary strongman in his heyday cannot return to the mainland alive. All my previous plans for returning home sounded ambitious, but I myself know their chances of success - and now, there is a powerful dragon (although she has not clearly admitted it) that she can help, and I cannot refuse this opportunity.

"Although rashly accepting the help of strangers may also contain risks... but I think the probability of this risk should not be higher than the chance of dying through time or bypassing the storm? What's more, this Ms. Enya always gives people a gentle, elegant and reliable feeling. Her intuition tells me that she is trustworthy, and even trustworthy like the laws of nature...

"I immediately asked her to help and asked her to send me back to the human world, but before that, I first took out the weird amulet to show her and told her about the appearance of this amulet - although I don't know if this mysterious 'dragon' can answer my doubts, I really can't find anyone to ask. In theory, the dragons living in this sea are the only races that may know the secrets about the tower. If even Enya can't get the risk of this amulet, I will throw it into the sea without hesitation.

"When I saw the amulet, Enya showed obvious surprise. She took the amulet and looked carefully for a long time, then stroked it with her hand... I didn't understand what happened. At that moment, there was no magic fluctuation or any energy reaction. However, some kind of power beyond imagination really appeared. I felt it suddenly descending, suppressing, purifying what was left on the amulet. At the same time, the panic and uneasy that never lingers and entangles the heart quickly faded from the spiritual world - I felt a sense of peace and warmth, and Enya put the amulet back into my hand.

"'It's safe--it's just a piece of metal now, you can take it back as a souvenir'--she told me.

"I don't know if I should believe her, but the amulet feels different now. It no longer has any unsettling breath. As an extraordinary person, I should probably believe my intuition in this field...

"At this point, I finally relieved my last doubts and hesitation. I didn't want to stay on this weird island of steel for a moment. I also had enough of the cold wind here. I expressed my urgent desire to leave as soon as possible. Enya nodded with a smile - this is the last scene I remember on that island of steel.

"The unhappy light and shadow enveloped me. In an infinitely short moment (or simply losing a period of memory), I seemed to have traveled through some kind of tunnel... or something. When I opened my eyes again, I was already lying on a gravel-covered coastline, a light curtain emitting a faint heat shrouded around, and the curtain itself had reached the edge of dissipation.

"I looked into the distance and saw the familiar mountains - this place is already the northern border.

"Now, I am sitting on the edge of my own territory, writing hard on this note, recording my strange and bizarre experiences over the past period of time. Everything is like a crazy and torn dream, full of absurd and bizarre twists and unexplainable details, but there is clear evidence to prove that they are all things that have happened-the amulet, which is now quietly lying on a large stone on my left hand, shining slightly in the sun..."

Gao Wen frowned.

Modir Wilder... just came back safely, was rescued by a mysterious woman who suddenly appeared, and was relieved of certain hidden dangers, and then returned to the human world safely?

In Gao Wen's opinion, it seems that similar things always have some twists and dark stories to be considered "consistent with common sense". However, the development of the real world does not seem to follow the rules. Modir Wilder did return to the north safely. His decades of life and many adventures he left behind can prove this. In this book "Modir Travels", the record of this "Trek Legend" has come to an end. At the end of the entire record, only Modir Wilder left by him:

"...It's all over. I walked back to Winter Fort, recalling my adventures over the past few months, and my thoughts have gradually woken up from the chaos. The familiar mountains, familiar villages and towns here, and the real humans I encountered on the road, all show that the nightmare was gone, and the land I stepped on under my feet was real.

"When I looked back and sorted out my notes for a while, I saw the last unsettling and crazy whispers, and the very strange word "leave" with the handwriting... Now I can be sure that this word is indeed not written out of my own will. It should have been written by my hand when "Enya" helped, and its function may be a medium of some kind of "spiritual awakening" or transmission of power.

"I hesitated for a long time whether to leave these records-they were weird and didn't look like what a normal adventure traveler should have, but in the end I decided to keep all the traces of the adventure in full - including those random words and words written by Eunya through my hands.

"There is no special power in these words. I have confirmed this. Leaving them is also a warning to future generations. They can fully reflect the dangers of adventure, and may allow other adventurers who are as reckless as me to think more before setting off...

"Laterers, if you are also interested in adventure, please remember my advice - the ocean is full of dangers, and the north of the human world is even more so. Opposite the eternal storm, it is definitely not a place that ordinary people should set foot. If you really want to go, then be prepared to say goodbye to this world forever...

"As for myself... it seems that I have to take a rest for a while and complete my reckless adventure aftermath. As for the future... well, I can't deceive myself in my own notes.

"Modir Wilder is a bold and unrepentant guy. I just can't control my urge to take risks!

"Facts have proved that I cannot be a qualified duke. I am not a qualified noble or a qualified ruler. I will complete the transfer and inheritance of the title as soon as possible. The king and several other dukes cannot stop me. Let me go on absurdly and let me set off again and go to the next unknown - maybe next time I will be alone and no longer drag the innocent, maybe one day I will die alone somewhere far from the human world, with only one note, but no matter what it is!

"This world full of unknowns is so fucking great!!"

Gao Wen silently closed the thick and ancient notes, watching the mottled and old cover hide the words inside again, and the sunlight that was approaching dusk shone on its restored spine, sprinkling a faint afterglow between the golden threads and silver burning.

After taking charge of this country, he also specifically learned about the stories behind the genealogy of several major aristocratic families on this land, and learned about a series of changes in the country after Gowen Cecil's death. In this process, many names gradually became familiar to him.

Modir Wilde six hundred years ago... is also a very famous person.

He inherited the title of Duke of the North and passed it to his heirs early. He spent half his life wandering around the world and did not act like a normal noble. Even among the descendants of Ansu's early pioneers, he was so unique that the nobles and scholars who studied history would frown when they mentioned this "Duke of Adventurer" and didn't know how to start writing.

He was a great man. He traveled to every corner of the human world, and even many corners outside the boundaries of the human world. He added nearly one-third of the duke-leaderly developed wasteland to Ansu six hundred years ago, and found more than ten precious magical materials and new food crops for the human civilization that had established itself at that time. He measured the border between the north and the east with his feet. Many things he discovered - minerals, animals and plants, natural phenomena, and magic rules after the magic tide, are still blessing the human world today.

He was also a ridiculous person. He abandoned his title, regardless of fiefdom or royal family. His contributions were actually derived from interest. His casualness caused almost as much trouble as he did at that time, so that the Ansu royal family six hundred years ago had to devote a considerable amount of energy to help the Wilder family stabilize the situation in the north to prevent the "parallel disappearance" of the Duke of the North to cause chaos in the border areas. If it were placed in the Second Dynasty where the royal rule declined significantly, Modir Wilder's spontaneous actions might even lead to a new division.

Therefore, the nobles and scholars who study history can only refuse to comment on the life of this "absurd grand duke". They recorded the life of the duke in an ambiguous way, but left no conclusions. Even if it weren't for the "Cultural Knowledge Preservation Project" launched in the first year of Cecil, many precious historical records about Modir would not have been discovered at all.

"He's a wonderful person..."

Gao Wen smiled, then sighed, and sat up from behind the desk.

He came to the "World Map" hanging not far away, and his eyes slowly wandered on it.

Modir Wilder has left so many mysteries...

Gao Wen sighed silently in his heart. He picked up the pen from the small shelf next to him. The tip of the pen fell next to the land representing Tallond opposite the Eternal Storm - this land was just a schematic diagram, not as accurate and detailed as the Loren continent - after hesitating and thinking for a while, he moved the pen tip on the sea west of Tallond, leaving a mark, and then placing a question mark next to it.

"Is there another tower..."

He whispered to himself, his eyes moved downwards and landed on the coastline where Beigang was located.
