Nine-Pillar Wolf Spirit Totem Power Infuser: Colby
The Guardian Spirit [Nine Pillars of Wild Wolf: Frost White Wolf (Gold)] asked a simple question.
But Zong Shen seriously used the Strategy Module's data to give it a fairly accurate answer.
"The exact time is the year 5972."
Upon hearing his answer, the Frost White Wolf's massive head dipped slightly.
The other eight Wild Wolf Guardian Spirits also stirred restlessly.
"So... nearly six thousand years have passed..."
A trace of sorrow appeared in the Frost White Wolf's eyes.

The nine Wild Wolf Guardian Spirits suddenly began to whimper mournfully.
They sobbed like humans, their eyes brimming with tears.

Just as Zong Shen was about to say something, Colby slowly stepped forward.
His expression was agitated, his eyes red, and even his steps had become unsteady.
"Honored Nine-Pillar Guardian Spirits..."
Colby choked out the words, then actually walked over and burst into tears alongside the nine Wild Wolf Guardian Spirits.
The atmosphere immediately turned mournful and sorrowful.
This no longer felt like an exploration, but more like a family reunion.
Zong Shen did not interrupt or urge them on. He simply waited quietly for Colby and the nine wolf spirits to finish crying.
"Child, do not weep."
"Wild Wolf warriors never shed tears."
A chill suddenly rose from the Frost White Wolf's body, instantly freezing its tears into ice before they fell.
It extended a large furry paw and gently stroked Colby's head, comforting him in a mild tone.
It looked just like a kind elder consoling
