562 Exploring Krishn World
It hovered over the ground for a few metres, and covered enough space to let my chariot pass through it without any trouble.
The next moment, I came out into a colossal world of thick trees. Everything around was green, dense and thick, giving me the impression it was a thick green carpet that covered earth not trees.
I recalled how I felt when I first came here, how I struggled to find that bastard, ending up with a big fight and a short chase before finally killing him.
I appeared just a small distance from the tree crowns. I led my chariot to fly higher, and there I got to see the old human world before the apocalypse hit it.
I got to see a glimpse of such a beautiful world before everything crashed down. This world had the same feeling of tranquillity and peace, especially with its clear sky and bright sun.
Just as I was breathing the fresh and clear air that would wash away any fatigue or exhaustion, I received a message here.
[Welcome to the Krishn world!]
[The world’s will issued you a quest]
[A lord is judged by his first decree. The quest is to do something, and based on it the world’s will shall determine if you are going to be a good lord or just like those who perished before you]
“Just like this?” I raised one eyebrow, “what’s the reward?”
[According to the assessment, the world’s will shall determine the appropriate rewards]
“No need,” I sighed, “let her know that if I did something great here, I’ll have one simple request answered by her.”
[The world’s will asks about this simple request of you]
“I just want her to mark out any resources placed in the entire world on the map,” I pointed at the small circular map at my lower right corner before adding, “let her flash the places in different colours, based on the resource grade and type.”
[The world’s will says this might be extravagant quest from you on the first meeting]
“I’m not asking for your pants, girl!” I rolled my eyes, “and who said I’m going to do things on a small scale here? Huh! You just don’t know me! I will return life back to your world, and make sure peace and harmony exists forever here.”
[The world’s will is curious about how you are going to do it!]
“Come on girl, don’t tell me you don’t like surprises,” I evilly grinned, “besides… This is my quest. There is no fun in spoiling it, right?”
I got no response from the system, meaning that this world will get the message and decided to wait and watch.
However I didn’t start doing anything but to roam the world around and look for a suitable place for my big plans here.
But I had to admit… this world was made out of pure forests! Trees were tall and mighty, towering and densely thick so as not to make me even see the ground.
I didn’t need to go down there and check the ground. After all, I fought with that jerk before down there. I knew there were rivers, water streams, and even hills. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
According to the map, there was a stretch of big mountains just nearby. The map was just simple, looking rudimentary in my eyes.
It only showed a general planning of the world here, while zooming in at my location.
“Let’s try to zoom it out,” I led my chariot towards the location of that nearby series of mountains while playing with that map.
After zooming out a dozen times, I finally got to see the entire map of this world.
It was… Really filled with green! In the middle of all these green spots, a stretch of big blue surfaces were there.
“So… It has ten big continents, and almost seven big seas or oceans… Interesting,” I muttered to myself while feeling how big this world was.
From the general estimates, this world was simply five times the size of Earth, if not more. Such a big world, rich in everything, and untouched so far… It was my own heaven!
Just the distance that was this close on the small map took me almost one hour of full speed flight by my chariot.
When I came closer, a series of mountains appeared in front of my eyes.
I heard stories before about how the Himalayan peak was the highest peak on Earth.
But this series here had many peaks that extended at least double of that Earth’s top peak. Half of the mountains were hidden from me under a thick veil of clouds.
“What would it be like up there?” I had such curiosity and decided to give such a place a visit.
But just as I went closer to this layer of clouds, thick tongues of silver blue thunder echoed. This wasn’t just a normal layer of clouds, but a thunderous one.
However I trusted my chariot and led it towards the clouds, penetrating it without any problem.
My shield protected me from any lightning strike. But the higher I went, the thicker and denser these lightning attacks became!
“Damn! This isn’t a place suited for anyone to live in,” I cursed after ten minutes of flying under such an intense atmosphere. However the next moment, my chariot broke through the thick cloud layer, reaching a place that made me change my opinion at once.
“This…” the world all around was all pure and spotless. The ground was replaced with a thick layer of greyish black thunderous storm clouds. But the clouds looked all peaceful at this moment.
And at different distances, the mountain peaks appeared, looking like iceberg tips floating in the middle of a big greyish black ocean.
There was no single cloud high up here. The sun looked a bit bigger, and despite that the world felt colder.
I didn’t know how. Wasn’t I closer to the sun? Shouldn’t I feel more warmth? Then how come I felt so cold?
This didn’t make any sense!
