Chapter 805: The Smell of Decay

~6 min read 1,100 words

Jack did not doubt him, upholding the rule of Article 15 of the Code that one must answer the questions of a Lord Magic Beast Master, and said without hesitation: "This lowly one was entrusted by Priest Yana to go to the scattered tribes outside the outer King City to obtain an item called the Radiant Petal."

"When passing through the main road that must be taken to return to the King City, the Pig Magic Beast, which did not exist before we set off, blocked the middle of the road, causing heavy casualties to this lowly one's brothers. If it weren't for your help, my Lord, I'm afraid this lowly one would not have met a good end either."

Jack's tone was full of flattery and humility, and the Priest Yana, Radiant Petals, and King City he mentioned made Su Hao suddenly enlightened.

He... had actually traveled to the past of his own world!!!

Diancie, who had easily lifted the Mamoswine, also widened its eyes; this kind of plot of traveling to the past that he had only seen in manga and anime made it a bit excited.

Afterward, questions instantly climbed into the bottom of Su Hao's heart.

Since he had returned to the past, that Priest named Yana who entrusted Jack to find the Radiant Petals should be the one he saw in the Flower of Time who offered the Reins of Unity.

Thinking of this, Su Hao's eyes lit up.

Since the Reins of Unity hadn't been made yet, it meant there was still some time before the moment Calyrex died. Perhaps this time he could change the past and change the historical node of Calyrex's death!

Since Jack had accepted the task of finding the Radiant Petals, then Calyrex must be in that so-called King City he was heading to!

Su Hao made up his mind to have Jack take him to that King City to contact Calyrex and then rewrite history!

As for whether he could rewrite history, and whether rewriting history would cause any bad effects?

Su Hao felt that since the Trial of Knowledge had arranged for him to be in this time, it meant that no matter how he messed around, nothing major would happen, and there was no explicit prohibition against affecting everything in this time.

So, no big deal!

According to Su Hao's observation, the status of these alternative Pokémon trainers called Magic Beast Masters here was extremely high.

So high that whatever he said, Jack did.

Whatever he asked, Jack answered without thinking.

Even if he made some rude, inhumane, and mandatory demands, Jack would probably agree.

This was a bit strange.

Through the simple question-and-answer session, Su Hao had already figured out the era he was in and what kind of place the King City where Jack lived was.

At the same time, he also felt a bad smell.

This was a place called the Land of Ice Prison, located in the extreme north of the super-large Pangu Continent.

And Jack and his group were a race called the Ice Remnants.

The Ice Remnants were a pitiful group of humans who had accidentally ended up in the Land of Ice Prison but could not return to the Pangu Continent due to a seal.

For hundreds of years, they had been struggling to survive in the extremely harsh environment of the Land of Ice Prison.

Until the savior of the Ice Remnants, the first Ice King, stood up.

The first Ice King possessed incomparably magical power, could drive away Magic Beasts, create a warm environment suitable for the Ice Remnants to survive, and could lead the lost Ice Remnants to reclaim wasteland and harvest abundance.

Afterward, the Ice King continued to strengthen the Ice Remnants with divine power that seemed to be bestowed by the heavens.

Until today, a thousand years later, the Ice King City stood at the foot of the highest Holy Mountain in the Crown Tundra, and the new generation of the Ice King still ruled here.

Moreover, there was an interlude.

Jack also told a fairy tale like a bedtime story to indirectly prove the greatness of the Ice King.

The content of the little story won't be repeated too much, because I can't write it either.

Su Hao summarized the information the fairy tale wanted to convey.

The Ice King had once defeated the extremely evil Ice Dragon that occupied the Land of Ice Prison and sealed it under a mountain not far from the Ice King City.

In every sense, Su Hao felt that this story was a lie artificially and deliberately distorted by the ruling class to create an absolute leader.

Good guy, he finally knew

why Calyrex was so weak in the footage.

I'm afraid that among the Ice Remnants saved by Calyrex, a few ambitious people appeared and usurped Calyrex's position in one fell swoop. I don't know if Calyrex knew it was too late, or chose to forgive.

Understanding all the intelligence, Su Hao also had the idea of going to that Ice King City immediately. He intended to see with his own eyes what kind of person the so-called Ice King was and what the situation of Calyrex was now.

Su Hao recalled Diancie with a Luxury Ball under Jack's stunned expression; its appearance was still too conspicuous, and Su Hao prepared to enter the Ice King City without attracting the attention of the Ice King City's high-level officials as much as possible.

Then Su Hao released Lucario and took out some weight rings he usually used during training and put them on Lucario; at first glance, they looked quite like restraint devices.

After doing all this preparation, Su Hao put on the clothes placed on the caravan's cargo cart with a look of disgust, using the excuse that his clothes were a bit dirty from the battle; this way, it was less likely to attract the attention of the King City.

Next, he waited for Jack, who was cautious and afraid of making Su Hao unhappy, to hastily settle the group of dead brothers, and led the much emptier caravan ox-carts toward the Ice King City.

This road led directly to the gate of the King City, and after about half a day's journey, the gate of the Ice King City gradually appeared in Su Hao's field of vision.

On the city wall, there were soldiers wearing iron armor patrolling properly; according to Jack, this was a guard that had to be set up to prevent Magic Beasts from attacking the city. ===== CHAPTER 806 =====
