Surviving The Fourth Calamity - Chapter 1718 - 295: Confronting Earth Force
"Susu" looked a bit confused: "Did you already guess that Rose would come?"
"Is there any gap that the Spider Queen cannot see?" Snow Cloud Peak replied calmly, "Hill probably wouldn’t find it strange."
"Susu" pondered for a moment before understanding where the so-called gap was: "Did you leave it on purpose?"
"An obvious flaw is more suitable than a seemingly impenetrable defense." Snow Cloud Peak responded ambiguously, "It’s rare for Hill to be so unsettled because of personal matters!
It seems he truly dislikes Gaia’s intentions toward him.
After all... as one side of the earthly life, how could he be willing to be treated like a snack by the chaotic darkness on the other side?
In Gaia’s eyes, Hill probably doesn’t even look human."
He lowered his head and whispered softly to the attentive Lily of the Valley and Hill on the other side: "Don’t worry, even if you smash Gaia into a puddle, Rose would be happy to take it.
Though the scene might be a bit frightening... I hope Lady Rose gives some face, at least using a spider form to swallow.
Otherwise... well, at least her face is quite good-looking, not too disgusting.
So, Hill, you wouldn’t feel uncomfortable just because you’re both part of the Earth Deity System, would you?"
Hill did not respond, but after cutting off the communication, it was clear from the trembling Lily of the Valley that he was happy.
Snow Cloud Peak turned and smiled at Susu: "Oh dear, our Little Bear, it’s rare to be so disgusted by a presence!
The previous one... but it was Talos, no, it should be Gewoosh... ah~"
"What’s wrong?" Susu turned to look at him.
"I understand why Hill is so angry and wants to completely crush Gaia’s incarnation, so she has no chance to return to her hidden form in the universe." Snow Cloud Peak murmured, "Compared to Hill, who is a powerful mage, there are so many Earth Bears in Teraxil!
Although, normally, with the protection of that Goddess of the Earth and the concern of the two Earth Bears Ancestors who have ascended to the Stellar Realm, nothing usually goes wrong.
But Hill, he never likes the ’what ifs.’
He doesn’t do things like us who like to take risks; an airtight plan is his preference."
"There are still three Legendary Rank Little Bears in the Earth Bear family!" Susu could understand this point, "They were all born and raised under Hill’s watchful eyes, how could he be willing to let any danger approach them?
Even if not..."
She smiled gently: "As a parent, merely thinking about someone looking at your own children with a disgusting gaze invokes an uncontrollable urge to root out the problem, especially when you know you can do it.
Endurance, for the most part, is because you know you can’t do anything about it.
Let alone Hill, who has never been truly part of the Kind Alignment, right?"
Snow Cloud Peak chuckled: "However, it seems that over in Toril, they always think of him as part of the absolute Kind Alignment!
And the God System of other worlds, I guess, probably believes this judgment!
Gaia, I suppose, thinks that a probing attack, with Hill being uncertain whether she’s truly out to get him, would make him follow those weird principles and let this momentarily greedy enemy go, right?
But actually, it’s understandable; whether it’s Valkin or Ambori, he passively resisted, didn’t pursue and kill from miles away, and even when Ambori slipped away right under his nose, he did nothing.
They haven’t figured out what Hill’s bottom line is yet.
I believe after this time, most people will have some idea.
Those who still don’t understand, no one will pity them when they’re dead."
"Hill actually fits the standard Neutral Good pretty well!" Susu sighed, "Why would anyone take the standard from Toril as the judgment criteria?
When has their standard for judging enemies ever been normal?"
Snow Cloud Peak smiled: "Anyway, let him mess around~ We’ve basically achieved our goal, haven’t we?"
"Hmm?" Susu couldn’t help but glance at him, "Over at Ismael’s, finished?"
"Ah... the typical Danboro boy." Snow Cloud Peak laughed, "Scaret over there is about to be furious, even took out the weapons left by Triton to their royal family.
With Ellie’s limited skills, tsk~ probably due to being controlled by that Wendy from the Eoscars Family, Gaia doesn’t trust her at all, the power given to her is weaker than the whale under her feet.
Anyway, they were shattered together.
When she appears before us again... ah, what’s Ambori doing?"
Susu didn’t even look and directly answered: "The boss from Doomsday wants to know the internal structure of the devilfish and what its scales look like, so Ambori is skinning the fish."
"Since when did she listen to outsiders... ah, forget it, I’m being silly, she always accepts these sorts of cruel suggestions." Snow Cloud Peak shook his head, "That probably means Ellie doesn’t even have the chance to appear before us.
With Typhon’s flesh consumed to such an extent, I guess she can’t support the quick resurrection of two incarnations simultaneously.
That’s good, every time I see her, there’s a... strange feeling.
Maybe it’s because although she’s a bit of an idiot, a bit greedy, she’s not actually a bad person?"
’Susu’ thought for a moment: "Probably because Lind has a bright future ahead, while Ellie, who’s a bit better than him, the best outcome for her is only to go to the Styx.
You always like to think about what’s fair or unfair.
But I don’t think, and most girls wouldn’t think, that Ellie is pitiful."
She looked at ’Snow Cloud Peak’ who was looking over, and said very seriously: "Lind is indeed a bad kid, but he actually knows his own talents and abilities, so he only does bad within that scope, which means he doesn’t cause any harm to outsiders like us.
And Ellie, she sees herself too highly, clearly, she’s just a weed, but she thinks of herself as a peony.
When she was pursuing Hill, she didn’t even feel she was reaching above her station!
To be so unaware of herself, and to climb up a ladder made of ice... it’s a pity, the ice hiding the wicked fire will melt very quickly for sure.
Isn’t it normal to fall and die?"
’Snow Cloud Peak’ shook his head helplessly. In his eyes, as long as it’s not an issue of principle, what’s the point of worrying about what should or shouldn’t be done?
Fortunately, at this moment, there was a huge noise from the mine.
Hill, who was moving with the fleeing Princess of Danboro, watched the sudden change in front of him with interest.
It seems Gaia is not as tolerant as he thought, but rather she intends to see if she can take down Ismael’s youngest son first.
Hill was a bit surprised, he suddenly realized something: compared to the boy currently playing a game of chase with Luciella, Gaia seems to still prefer Lucimar.
This lady doesn’t seem to be indiscriminate about men either.
But... now that Lucimar knows the truth, I guess during this time he wouldn’t even dare to touch a woman’s hand, right?
Besides, there’s also Rose waiting over there!
Gaia’s peculiar confidence, I really don’t know who gave it to her. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
Even Shaer, after knowing that Rose was watching her covetously from behind, would act very cautiously!
Don’t be fooled by her slick moves, but from the fact that she chose to take the initiative to attack, it can be seen she is wary of Rose.
However, Gaia really didn’t take Rose into account!
After she landed on the Princess of Danboro, she found those little silk spiders hidden in the seams of the princess’s clothes, and just flicked them away with a wave of her hand, then snorted disdainfully twice, and gathered a few giant hands intending to swat the scattering spiders.
However, those huge but slow hands were useless, except for causing a gust of wind that knocked over a few guards following the princess.
More mutated silk spiders escaped than died, really... although it’s to Rose’s benefit, Hill thought the Spider Queen must be very dissatisfied.
She is never afraid of others’ hatred and disgust, which is her source of joy, but she hates to be underestimated the most.
Quite interesting.
If at the beginning Rose just wanted to devour some of Gaia’s energy, now the Spider Queen probably hates her deeply.
Pretty good.
Hill was quite happy to see this result.
It’s definitely difficult to find Gaia’s avatars everywhere, but if the Spider Queen targets him, she’ll surely catch him every time.
So even if Gaia starts trying to contend with him for control of the labyrinth, Hill can still stroll above their heads with a smile.
Of course, the control rights in no way will be given up.
Since Gaia has come out, he no longer feels so troubled, after all, he just needs to work his hands a little more, and oh, step a little harder.
Ivan finally realized what he had overlooked... in his impression, Gaia was unbelievably powerful, someone not even Zeus would dare to offend, the Mother Earth.
So he truly believed that as long as Gaia crossed Aesces’ protection and caught Hill, that so-called Son of the Earth would have no ability to resist.
He certainly knew that Hill not only slaughtered a Dragon on Toril but also defeated the earthly incarnation of an Intermediate Divine Power.
However, in his mind... after all, since the Undead Tribe arrived in Toril, Hill rarely made a move, and they, whose souls hadn’t faced the divine might directly, simply didn’t understand what terrifying feats Hill had accomplished.
For most of the Undead Tribe, anyone above Level 30 could instantly kill them.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that they seem to be able to resist even a Level 30 Lich in the Underdark; that’s actually because there are so many of them that the opponent can’t kill them all, plus the protection of the Divine Artifact... the Lich left not because they couldn’t defeat them, but because they didn’t want to waste their Magic Slots.
So Ivan and the others simply didn’t understand why Hill, who can make a move without a blink in front of the earthly incarnation of a True God with the divine might pressure, was considered an equal by those of great divine power.
Hill may not be a match for those deities yet, but he already stood on that platform.
The Proud Sky Alliance also indeed tells some of Hill’s stories, but... any words processed by the Undead Tribe all turn into myths.
They didn’t believe it.
But now, Ivan is really a bit flustered.
