Chapter 135 The message delivered by the ruins guards
As the cavalry captain of the Knights, Kaia has a certain degree of credibility, and many people in Mondstadt know him. He can also drive away the adventurers nearby in the name of the Knights, which is better than him or Jiang Bai.
"3 o'clock in the afternoon should be enough time for us to complete the placement of the bomb. We will detonate the bomb at this time. You have to make sure that no one will come here during this time."
"no problem."
Kaia happily agreed.
It's getting a little dark now, but not dark yet.
Before tomorrow, this time belongs to him.
He turned to look at the huge Hantian Nail. Reflected by the fire, his eyes seemed to be burning with hot flames.
The plan was decided and everyone took a break.
After climbing a snow-capped mountain for a day, no matter how strong your physical strength is, you still need to rest at this time.
Jiang Bai baked his coat, which was a little wet due to the snow, and prepared to teleport along the anchor points one by one to see if he could find Hu Tao.
Abedo was preparing dinner for them who were tired from traveling, while Keli sat aside and drooled as she watched.
In order to reduce the influence of the chaotic earth line, Katissu slept in his diary and would not appear unless someone called him.
Only Kaia walked to the front of the Cold Sky Nail after her body warmed up.
He looked up at the huge nail with a complicated look on his face.
Although he is the cavalry captain of the Knights of Mondzewind, he also has another level of identity - the last descendant of the ancient kingdom of Canria.
Kanria, this is a country that was destroyed five hundred years ago and disappeared from history.
Nowadays, few people know of their existence, and few people will mention this name.
But the ruins guards throughout the Teyvat continent all originate from this once prosperous country.
It is impossible to study the history of this country. We only know that it is hidden deep underground and is a land ruled by godless people.
Kaia doesn't have many memories of Camrea. He came to Mondstadt when he was still young, and his memories of Camrea all come from the words and deeds of his father.
The huge nail of cold weather in front of me came from the sky, and Kanria also died under the sky.
He looked up at the sky. Under the layers of clouds and mist, he seemed to see a floating island in the sky.
He named [Tianli] watches over this land.
He looked up for a while, until his neck felt sore, and then he lowered his head.
He did not touch the cold nail, but slowly walked around, trying to find something.
This cold nail did not fall for no reason. There must be something special about this snow mountain.
As far as he knew, there once was an ancient country in this snow-capped mountain, but later the ancient country was destroyed.
He didn't know how the ancient country was destroyed before, but now the answer is ready to come out.
It was this long nail that dropped from the sky that nailed the country to death and was destroyed by the wind and snow.
This is very similar to what happened to Kanria, the only difference is that the things that dropped are different.
But what did this country do to cause such punishment to come from the sky?
He walked around on the top of the mountain, looked around, and soon found the ruins guard who had been knocked down by Jiang Bai and covered in snow.
This ruin guard has been paralyzed and can no longer move, but its core is still flashing and making a sound of unknown meaning.
Kaia swept away the snow on the ruined guard, revealing its dim core.
Without the obstruction of snow, the sound became clearer.
After listening for a while, Kaiya showed a surprised look.
What this ruins guard transmitted was a string of information, using a unique encryption method of Canria, and he happened to learn this encryption method.
After deciphering it, he got a string of text.
[For the sake of the country, we cannot give up this power brought by heaven, but we failed.]
Power from heaven?
Failed?
Does the content conveyed refer to this ancient country, or does it refer to Kanreia?
The deciphered content made Kaiya even more confused and had more questions.
He stood up and continued walking until he reached the highest point of the snow-capped mountain, which was once known as the place closest to the sky.
At this time, the place closest to the sky was already badly damaged. Only half of the established altar was left, and the other half was also covered by thick snow.
Standing here, the entire snow-capped mountains come into view.
At this time, the sun had just disappeared among the mountains, and the snow-capped mountains were rarely exposed to the clear sky.
He stood here, staring at the sky, with inexplicable emotions surging in his eyes, until the sky was covered by night.
…
Jiang Bai gnawed on the roasted snow rabbit cooked by Abedo, and his mouth was full of oil.
Abedo's skills are quite good, especially his barbecue skill, which is excellent.
"That's great! Abedo, you are very good at barbecue!"
"I used to barbecue a lot." Abedo chuckled and talked about his previous experience.
"When I was doing experiments with my master, I often encountered a large spider under the petrified ancient tree. Although this spider does not look good, its meat is extremely delicious.
"I will tie it tightly with gardenias and lemongrass, then spread it with white cardamom and smoke it for several hours. The taste is several times more beautiful than this snow rabbit..."
As he said that, Albedo also missed the smell of the spider.
Jiang Bai recalled the appearance of the spider, and after confirming that the spider here was the same species as the spider in his impression, he expressed deep doubts.
"Are spiders actually edible?"
Can a creature with hair all over its body and no meat on its legs be roasted and eaten?
Jiang Bai didn't understand.
"Those spiders are very big, one is bigger than Keli..." Abedo compared Keli's size.
Keli took a sip of her own saliva and said, "Big spider, roast it and eat it..."
She remembered that there were some spiders with webs in the attic. When she went back, she caught them and asked Brother Abedo to roast them and eat them!
Kaia came back at this time, with that cynical smile on his face again.
"It seems I came back too late and missed dinner."
"Here, I left one for you."
Abedo only roasted four snowshoe rabbits, one for each person was just right.
Kaia picked up the snow rabbit and took a bite, sighing, "It would be great if I had a cup of [Death in the Afternoon] at this time..."
Wine goes well with barbecue.
However, the conditions here are very simple and there is no wine he wants to drink.
After eating, Jiang Bai burped with satisfaction, wrapped the torn off rabbit leg in oil paper, and put it into his clothes to prevent it from getting cold.
He kept this specially and planned to bring it to Hutao to try.
As an excellent little brother, you must never forget your own hall master if something good happens.
"I'll go out to look for our hall master. She should have arrived at the snow mountain too."
After saying hello to them, Jiang Bai walked towards the teleportation anchor point.
I made a pot of candied haws today, but it ended in failure. Too much water was put in, and the sugar couldn't solidify at all...
In the afternoon, I grilled fish with my friends in the mountains. We gathered stones to build a small stove and gathered wood to make charcoal.
