Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 35 Perhaps, identity can come true.
library.

"Iris, go and rest on the hammock first. I want to read a book on the floor." Xia Mingyu said, and then buried his head in reading.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

A hint of joy appeared on Iris's pretty face, which was not much bigger than a palm.

She had never stood for so long or done so much physical activity since she was born, which made her understand the hard work of the servants in her own castle.

"call!"

After lying back on the soft hammock, Iris hung her jade-like, translucent calves over the edge of the bed, stretched out comfortably, and purred like a kitten.

Then she turned over and lay on the hammock, swinging her legs as she looked at the black-haired young man in front of her who was concentrating on reading a book. A hint of curiosity flashed in her gray eyes.

Only now did she finally relax and take a good look at the appearance of the most noble prince in the world.

His slender fingers gently slid across the pages of the book, his movements graceful and calm. His soft black hair drooped slightly, covering part of his forehead, but it could not hide his black eyes as deep as the night.

The sunlight slanted down from the stained glass window at the top, giving his angular profile a soft golden edge and highlighting his perfect facial contours.

So. So handsome!

Elise couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.

Judging from his appearance alone, this prince is indeed fit to be a prince of a super kingdom.

Not only that, for some reason, this prince seemed to have a wonderful affinity. She obviously didn't like talking to people, but in front of this noble prince she was able to relax miraculously, and even had no complaints when being driven around at will.

It's a bit strange. Could it be that this prince has some kind of ability?

The girl looked at the words above the young man's head with some suspicion. It was not the long string of identity protection, but the occupation protection behind it "college student".

(Clear Stupidity: You will be more likely to win the favor of others when you first meet them.)
Hundreds of years ago, for some unknown reason, a war began among the gods.

It was a catastrophe that was like the collapse of heaven and earth.

The sun in the sky expanded countless times, as if it was going to evaporate the ocean and crack the earth.

The moonlight cast by the bright moon also turned into a sword, sharp enough to pierce flesh and blood.

Waves rolled up on the sea, raging and drowning all the sails.

Tall, sharp peaks rose from the earth, as if piercing the sky.

The violent wind suddenly arose, uprooting trees a hundred meters high and even blowing up the mountains.

Thunder roared among the clouds, and all creatures that dared to fly at this time had their wings broken by the thunder. Even the most powerful dragon lowered its head in fear.

No living being dares to dream, because the beautiful dreams have completely disappeared, and only horrible nightmares remain.

The catastrophe lasted for seven days and seven nights before it stopped. During this period, countless lives were killed and injured. Even the vast continent was split into two by a terrifying thunder, turning into the east and west continents that drifted away.

From then on, to the west is the Western Continent, and to the east is the Eastern Continent.

"Huh" After closing the book, Xia Mingyu let out a long sigh.

This mythical story is actually the true history of this fantasy world. It is really interesting!
It turns out that gods can also fight and bring disasters, and their power is so strong that they can even split the entire continent in two like cutting a cake.

How terrifying, how shocking, how tempting!
A hint of heat flashed in Xia Mingyu's eyes. As a traverser from a world without magic, it was almost inevitable that he would develop a desire for this almost unlimited power.

If only one day, he could sit high on the throne and listen to the prayers of the world.

At least, as a god, he is still willing to do some good things for the world, such as standardizing taxes, abolishing slavery and prostitution, etc.
Anyone who dares to oppose him will be sent to the guillotine. After all, he has become a god and no one can stop his will!

Xia Mingyu couldn't help but smile slightly as he imagined such a beautiful future. However, he quickly reacted, pinched his thigh, and quickly regained his composure.

Xia Mingyu, Xia Mingyu, why are you daydreaming again? We're not in a university classroom now.

By the way, the East and West continents have been separated for hundreds of years. Has no one ever looked for the East Continent?
Thinking of this, Xia Mingyu hurriedly searched through a pile of books beside him and soon found a book called "Exploration of the East Continent".

He opened the thick book and started reading again.

Shortly after the Great Cataclysm, countless navigators set sail and headed towards the East Continent.

People originally thought that this was a natural way to reach the destination, because among those navigators, there were many powerful extraordinary people. Even if there were many ferocious monsters living in the ocean, they could not stop their progress.

But soon, the first group of navigators returned, and the large fleet of tens of thousands of people was reduced to only a few small boats.

It was from the crazy navigator that people learned that a terrifying fog was rising from the sea in the direction of the East Continent.

Any ship that enters the fog will have its crew gradually driven mad by insomnia and eventually kill each other.

No one could break through the sleepless fog, so the enthusiasm for heading to the East Continent gradually subsided.

A few years later, another fleet set sail.

All the people on the ship are heroes who have accomplished many great deeds and are famous throughout the continent.

They are eager to try their best and vow to accomplish great things.

As high-level extraordinary beings, they can still stay awake even if they suffer from insomnia for a long time, not to mention that there are many magicians on the ship who can use meditation instead of sleep.

People had full confidence in them until a few months later when only a few heroes were left and they returned covered in wounds.

From their mouths, the world learned for the first time how terrifying the gap between the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent was.

While crossing the sleepless fog, you will face a giant monster with an immeasurable length entwined on the sea - Jörmungandr, the "Serpent that Encircles the World".

The heroes finally crossed the "Ring World Serpent" at the cost of almost all of their own destruction, but when the fog dissipated, what appeared before them was an extremely desperate scene.

An incomparably huge wall of ice, with no top or end visible, blocked everything.

It is rooted in the deep seabed, yet almost touches the stars.

The surviving heroes tried their best, but they could only break a small hole in the ice wall, which was of immeasurable hardness.

This horrific scene directly shattered their confidence, so they could only return with grief and despair.

Fortunately, the "Ring World Snake" did not attack again on the return journey, otherwise they would have died in the deep sea like their previous dead companions.

In the following hundreds of years, countless people also set sail for the East Continent with their dreams, but in the end, only one in a hundred returned.

To this day, anyone who wants to go to the East Continent is regarded as a madman or a wishful thinker.

“It’s really an epic story.”

Xia Mingyu closed the book again and sighed.

The history described in the book reminded him of the Golden Fleece in Greek mythology.

Unfortunately, the Golden Fleece was blessed by the gods and finally achieved its goal, but the fleet of this world heading to the East Continent had a miserable end.
"In other words, the people of the entire Western Continent know nothing about the Eastern Continent."

Xia Mingyu's pupils suddenly shrank.

He suddenly discovered that his identity seemed to be coming true!
