Chapter 227
"......Targan? Honey? Why are you suddenly interested in this place?"
Jin Cheng was holding a thick book in his hand, immersed in the information about Targan, and his heart was full of yearning for that mysterious place.
The Ersro Mountains run from north to south, like a huge barrier between Demacia and Freljord.
However, even this towering and majestic mountain is much less impressive than the legendary Targan.
Almost everyone living on the Valoran continent knows that the top of the world is Targan! There are even rumors that this mountain is directly connected to the heavens!
However, in the eyes of the Demacians and the local residents of Targan, there are significant differences in the description of Targan.
Jin Cheng is well aware of the difficulties and obstacles of climbing Targan.
You know, as an ordinary human being, if you don't have the assistance of modern equipment, no matter how strong you are, when facing the majestic peak of 10,000 meters, you will feel extremely small and fragile.
Even if you encounter some minor difficulties and setbacks, you may die.
Jincheng also asked Fiona, a Demacian, about the Targon Peak.
After all, compared to the Demacians, Jincheng firmly believes in one thing: if you climb to the top of the Targon, you will receive the blessing of the Star Spirit.
This is a lesson learned from the past.
But Fiona's answer is completely different from what Jincheng knows.
"Do you know the 'Stone Crown Punishment'? It is the oldest and most solemn punishment in Demacia!
According to the ancient tradition of Demacia, if any noble commits a serious mistake, brings shame to his family, and humiliates his own honor, he will be punished with the 'Stone Crown Punishment'.
This punishment is not to put people to death, but to give these people who make mistakes a chance to reform and regain their glory.
But it is also equivalent to an unforgivable crime.
It is said that as long as there is a brave and fearless warrior who can successfully climb to the top of the Giant God.
Then Demacia will once again give him supreme glory, forgive his past sins, and make up for his past mistakes.
After all, such a brave and resolute person is fully worthy of this honor!
However, in reality, most people who suffer from the ' Those who are punished by the "Stone Crown Punishment" will choose to quietly leave Demacia, go far away, and start a new life of self-exile.
Because only in this way can they gain a chance of survival.
However, there are also some brave men in the world who really want to wash away the stigma of their family by climbing the Targon.
It's a pity that there are so few fools who are so persistent and naive!
Hey, Jincheng, you should understand that if it were me who unfortunately lost my glory, then even if the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, even if I paid the price of my life in the end, I would definitely climb the towering Targon without hesitation..."
When Fiona talked about those cowardly nobles who said they would accept the "Stone Crown Punishment" but fled in the face of the enemy, her face was full of disdain and contempt.
But Jincheng was silent when he listened to Fiona's story.
Indeed, even running 10,000 meters on flat ground is a difficult task, not to mention climbing a mountain that is at least 10,000 meters high.
What's more, mountaineering is a road of no return.
In addition, the terrain of Mount Targon is extremely steep and dangerous, and its height is so high that it is extremely difficult for birds to reach the top.
It seems that it is an insurmountable barrier set by nature.
"Hey? Jincheng, why are you suddenly interested in Mount Targon?"
Seemingly noticing Jincheng's distraction, Fiona smiled and approached the man, looking at the book in Jincheng's hand with curiosity.
The old parchment book clearly recorded:
It is said that as long as you climb to the top of Mount Targon, you can...
"Huh? Climbing Mount Targon will get the blessing of the stars?
Jincheng, you don't really believe this, do you?
This is just a story imagined by the nomads at the foot of Mount Targon out of admiration and worship of the towering mountain!"
Fiona looked at the description in the book and couldn't help laughing, and at the same time patted Jincheng's shoulder hard.
"How do you know it's fake? Have you climbed it?"
Jin Cheng's mouth curled up slightly when he heard this, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
He pursed his lips gently, then narrowed his eyes, staring deeply at the book in his hand.
Fiona was caught off guard by Jin Cheng's question, and was speechless for a moment.
She widened her eyes, with a look of surprise on her face, but soon regained her composure.
However, just as she was about to continueWhen she continued to refute, Jincheng suddenly interrupted her.
"Fiona, you should go and handle the affairs of the territory!"
Jincheng's heart was like a Buddha. He reached out and grabbed the clothes on the bedside and threw them to Fiona without hesitation.
Fiona subconsciously caught the flying clothes, and a sense of helplessness surged in her heart.
She took a deep breath, tried to restrain her inner dissatisfaction, and glared at Jincheng who was still concentrating on the book.
"You lazy bug!"
Fiona couldn't help but complain softly.
However, she also knew that Jincheng trusted and relied on her, and the trust in handing over the affairs of the territory to herself was extremely high.
So, Fiona quickly changed her clothes, adjusted her mentality, walked out of the room with a brisk pace, and prepared to devote herself to the busy affairs of the government.
Well, she still had to go to the sword training field to continue to challenge Jincheng.
Fiona firmly believed that as long as she managed the territory with her heart and made it prosperous, she could fully demonstrate her ability and value.
After she left, the room fell into silence.
After a long time, Jin Cheng's eyes began to move slightly. He slowly bent down, as if thinking about something important:
"Shivana, Fiona is gone, you come out..."
