Chapter 1252: Chapter 1252 – Hamken And The Bar
Chapter 1252 Hamken And The Bar
“What’s Wrong?”Olai asked curiously.
“Nothing, I just thought of something, “Aliesia said.
“What is it?”
“Forget it, it’s not important anymore.”Aliesia shook her head. Then, she turned to look at Zhang Heng. Suddenly, she pulled down the fishbone necklace from her hand and walked toward Zhang Heng with it.
“She said that she was very grateful to you for saving her and her companions’lives and wanted to give you this bracelet.”Song Jia translated Alicia’s words for Zhang Heng, “Take this bracelet to her tribe and you will become the most distinguished guest there. One day, when she becomes a shaman, all the Inuit will be your friends. In addition, from now on, you will be protected by Hamken when you sail on the sea. Of course, you have to have it nearby.”
“Who is Hamken?”
“Uh, it’s the deep sea monster carved on your bracelet. It’s a blue whale. It’s over a hundred years old, and it’s very large. Most blue whales like to stay close to the South Pole. I don’t know why it would come to the North Pole alone. It’s also Alicia’s guardian spirit.”
Zhang Heng accepted the bracelet without any hesitation.
Aliesia hesitated for a moment before pointing at the frightened-looking Sachus on the sofa. “What do you plan to do with him? If possible, can you hand him over to me?”
“You want to take him away?”Songjia looked a little surprised, “It seems like there’s something wrong with his mental state. We can’t get anything out of him. Furthermore, he killed Dr. Baker. Perhaps we should hand him over to the police.”
However, when she told Zhang Heng about this suggestion, the latter shook his head, “We can’t hand him over to the police, at least not now, because we can’t explain what happened tonight, especially with so many bodies down there.”

At that moment, Alicia spoke up again, “My teacher, Kuna, is the current shaman of our tribe. He’s also the most powerful shaman of the Inuit in the past 200 years. He can communicate with spirits and interpret dreams, and he’s also a well-known wise man. Previously, this fellow mentioned many nightmares that plagued him. Although he doesn’t seem to be able to communicate with others now, my teacher might not need him to speak. He might be able to directly start from his dreams and obtain some useful information.
“The sacred relic is very important to us. Not only can we tell if outsiders harbor malicious intentions toward our tribe, but it can also help the young shamans communicate with the spirits of Heaven and earth. Without it, we will most likely be left without a successor. Especially now that the shamans are getting weaker and weaker, we can’t do without it.”
Zhang Heng thought about it and said, “Sure, but I can only give you three days at most. In three days, regardless of whether you have the information you want or not, I will take him away.”
“You still want to take him away?”Alicia was a little surprised, “But didn’t you finish asking all the questions before? Wait, do you want him to take you to the city under the ice?”? “You heard what he said before, right? Even though I’m not sure if the story is true or not, and whether the monsters that don’t belong to Earth really exist, there is indeed an extremely powerful evil presence in the city under the ice. Our tribe has been fighting against it for years, and I want to take this opportunity to learn more about it
“I’ll take him away in three days.”

Zhang Heng didn’t explain further, but he reiterated his position. He had come to Greenland to find out about his background, now, through Sartrus, he knew that he came from that strange and mysterious city under the ice. His adoptive parents and Sartrus had taken him out of there, and the monster’s blood flowed in his body, perhaps this was also the reason why he had the strange ability to control water, as well as the strange dream.
However, Zhang Heng still did not know who his biological parents were. He was only a year old, so why had he appeared in the city under the ice? What did the monster want to do to him, Mr. Tam, that was also why the god of time, Chronos, had organized people to come all the way here to look for him. After that, his adoptive parents reached an agreement with Chronos, and they actually brought him back to the country, he had raised him as his own child until now..
Zhang Heng hoped that the city under the ice would answer his questions, or at least some of them. In addition, the word “Container”mentioned by Mr. Tam also made many connections in Zhang Heng’s mind, but tonight.., he didn’t want to think about these questions anymore.
He said to Olai and Alicia, “Please take care of the bodies downstairs. I still need to stay here for a while. I don’t want to be targeted by the police for the time being.”
“Okay.”Alicia nodded. “We can do this. Leave it to us.”
“Keep an eye on this guy. Don’t let him get away.”‘Zhang Heng pointed at Sachus on the sofa and then turned to Song Jia. “Is there a bar nearby? I want to go for a drink.”
“Now… Now?”Song Jia was stunned. When she saw Zhang Heng assign the cleaning to the two Inuit, she thought he would have something important to do next, however, she didn’t expect him to just want to find a place to have a drink.
“Yes, that’s right. We can talk about your salary in the future. You’re right. Considering the danger this time, I should pay you more.” “That’s not what I meant.”Song Jia started to feel embarrassed when she heard that. It was as if she had said that she wasn’t going to be Zhang Heng’s translator anymore because of the money. “You deserve it.”
“But I haven’t decided whether or not I should continue to be your translator and
guide.”
Zhang Heng nodded. “I understand your concern, but let’s talk about the rest after we finish drinking.”
“Okay, I know a good bar nearby. I’ve been through a lot today, so I’d like to have a drink too.”
“Okay, let’s go.”Zhang Heng stood up and walked downstairs with his clothes on.
His mood was not as calm as it appeared on the surface. Even though he had a premonition before this trip to Greenland, the moment the truth was revealed.., when he realized that he was not the child of his parents, he felt another wave of emotions that he had not felt for a long time. However, this wave of emotions was very complicated, zhang Heng did not know how to describe his current mood. It was as if he had lost something important.

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]

Glitch — Alpha [Swedish] [Svenska]
Otilia jobbar på förskolan när ett barn försvinner rakt framför ögonen på henne. Sekunder efteråt kommer barnet tillbaka, som att inget hänt. Hon tror att hon är överarbetad, men när försvinnanden börjar hända överallt och de som kommer tillbaka inte är sig själva, förstår Otilia att något, någonstans gått riktigt snett. När hon och hennes pojkvän får en idé om vad som kan vara orsaken gör de allt för att informationen ska komma fram till rätt personer. Detta är en skräck/thriller som innehåller ganska mycket blod och våld. Även mot och med barn. Om detta stör dig råder jag att du håller dig borta. Detta är också den första boken jag någonsin skrev (2015, och knappt rörd sedan dess) och var ämnad att bli en trilogi. Eftersom den bara har legat och skräpat i hårddisken under alla dessa år tänkte jag att jag lika gärna kunde släppa den här. Trevlig läsning! ********* For English readers: (Might as well add this information in English to save the lovely souls looking through our works some time) I probably won't translate this work, but I'm working on another translation within YA, if that's something you'd be interested in. This one's horror/thriller, so.. yeah. Maybe sometime in the future. Otilia works at a daycare when a child disappears. Seconds later, the child reappears, like nothing had happened. She thinks she's worked too much, but when disappearences start to happen all around the globe, she and her boyfriend realize that something has gone really, really wrong. When they get an idea about what could be the cause, no matter how unbelievable, they will do everything in their power to get the information to the right people. This was my first-ever-novel and my first gamelit story (though I had no idea that was a thing/genre at the time). This novel contains a lot of violence and blood and can be uncomfortable to read for some people. There is also some violence from, and off-screen violence to, children.
