At noon, Zhang Yao was lying on the trunk of a giant tree in clean and tidy clothes for a nap.

In the morning, he finished his swim and started his daily patrol in wet clothes, but no sooner had he finished a village than he realized that he had underestimated the temperature of the morning forest.

It is the solar term of early spring in the Hero continent, and the temperature has gradually warmed up, but in the morning of the forest, the temperature is still a little cool.

Zhang Yao walked in the forest in clothes that were still dripping, shivering from the cold, although many elves in the village warmly beckoned him to come to his home to rest.

But he politely rejected them one by one.

Twice a day patrol tasks are the responsibility of the elven sentinels, and Zhang Yao is still ready to complete his task first.

By noon, when the temperature in the forest rises, it will be fine.

In this way, he made his rounds to the last village in wet clothes, and after inquiring about the villagers with the old village chief, he went to visit Dinah again.

Then he went to the nearby creek and brought back two large baskets of small stones, and paved a beautiful stone path in front of the old village chief's door.

And the old village chief also gave Zhang Yao a set of clean clothes that he wore when he was young.

Although Zhang Yao wanted to carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng in this plane, considering his current physical condition, he still changed his clothes with a few polite sentences.

After bidding farewell to the old village chief, Zhang Yao found a giant tree in an excellent location, hung his wet clothes on the treetops, and was baked by the noon sun.

Humming softly a ballad of the elf clan, Chen Xi lazily lay on the trunk of the tree and fell asleep, he tossed all night last night, and was seriously deprived of sleep, and now he urgently needed to make up for sleep.

The birds sang softly from the trees in the woods, and the breeze blew up a strand of hair and blew off the leaves that Zhang Yao covered his eyes.

A palm-sized elf waved its cicada-like wings behind it and landed on Zhang Yao's chest.

Elves are a tiny race of elves that possess a certain amount of intelligence, but have a lifespan of only twenty years.

They are simple-hearted, naturally kind, and have always been the right-hand men of the elves.

But because of the scarcity of numbers, not every elven can get their help.

Zhang Yao also felt the little elf that fell on his chest, he slowly opened his eyes, and asked in a harmonious voice, "What's wrong, little guy?"

"......%¥@#" The elf opened his mouth and uttered a string of ancient elven words. He looked a little nervous.

The words spoken by the elves now were the lingua franca of the continent created during the elf empire, so Zhang Yao thought for a moment before he could tell what the elves meant just now.

Carlo is dying, and he wants to meet you.

Zhang Yao sat up abruptly, and held the elf in front of him with his right hand: "What's the matter?

Although Carlo was in poor health last night, according to Zhang Yao's speculation, he had at least one month to live.

Why are you dying now after only a few hours!?

Could it be that something happened to Carlo after he left last night!

"I don't know, but he's really dying, go ahead!" the elf said anxiously in the ancient elven language.

Elves are innocent by nature and don't lie, Zhang Yao knew this, so he quickly stood up and took his longbow and quiver from the branches on the side and rushed towards Carlo's territory.

The elf also fanned his wings to follow him, urging him from time to time.

Carlo is both a teacher and a good friend to Suer, and since Zhang Yao said that he would fulfill Suer's last wish, he also bears Suer's social relations.

Carlo's wish to see Sur before he died, he was sure to fulfill it.

Zhang Yao ran through the forest at his fastest speed, and thanks to the skills that Suer had honed in the forest, Zhang Yao was able to run like he was walking on the ground in the rugged woods.

But even so, Zhang Yao still felt that the speed was too slow, he used to fly in the sky, and now this speed is simply turtle speed for him.

It took more than an hour for Zhang Yao, who was about to run out of breath, finally came to the outside of Carlo's tree house, and he pushed the door and walked into the house without stopping.

"Carlo... Call... I'm coming... Whew~Whew!" Zhang Yao gasped and walked into the room.

At this time, Carlo's hut was already full of people, the chiefs of the five villages he guarded and the elven magicians who had rushed from the elven court.

"Sue . . . Er, you... Here we are......" Carlo lay on his bed, weakly calling out Sur's name. A slightly trembling hand was reached

"I'm here Carlo, I'm here!" Zhang Yao walked to the side of the bed and half-knelt down, holding Carlo's outstretched hand.

Feeling Carlo's faint breath of life, Zhang Yao knew that he only had a few minutes left to live at most.

Carlo may have died a long time ago, but he had been holding on to Thor for a long time.

"How could this be!How could this be! Wasn't it okay last night?" asked Zhang Yao anxiously, with a sad look on his face.

His sadness is not faked, inheriting and fusing Suer's memories, Zhang Yao actually subtly accepted Suer's feelings for Carlo.

At this moment, Carlo is to him the good big brother who is also a teacher and a friend, the good friend who has always helped him.

Carlo held Zhang Yao's hand, the corners of his mouth curved slightly upward, as if he wanted to laugh, but his body was too weak, so he could only make an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Seeing that Carlo was speechless, Zhang Yao hurriedly turned his head and asked the people behind him, "What the hell is going on, I saw him fine last night!"

"Carlo ......" An elven village chief wanted to speak, but as soon as he spoke, no one began to sob.

"What the hell is going on!" Zhang Yao said hurriedly.

"Carlo was injured by a couple of intruders last night. The elven village chief said sadly.

It turned out that Carlo always felt uneasy after Zhang Yao left last night, so he went to the edge of the forest to check, which didn't matter, but found Mani's accomplice.

They were supposed to be doing the work outside the forest, but after waiting for a long time, Mani did not come out, and guessed that something might have happened to him, so they thought about going into the forest to check it out.

Carlo originally wanted to scare these people away with the advantages of the environment, but he didn't expect that there was a guy with half-orc blood in this group, and he keenly smelled the thick smell of blood on his body.

They expected that Carlo was too seriously injured to fight, so they did not retreat, but wanted to take this opportunity to make a good profit.

Having lost an arm and being seriously wounded, Carlo had no choice but to fight and retreat in the face of the wolf-like intruders, relying on his familiar surroundings to lay traps while trying to inform the nearby elven village.

Although the hunters of the village eventually arrived to help Carlo fight off the invaders, Carlo's injuries worsened.

Although the healing mage of the Elven Court arrived in time, it was to no avail, and his last wish was to meet his friend, Thur.

Zhang Yao held Carlo's hand with a sad expression, if he could have dealt with the people outside the forest last night, Carlo would not have died.

Feeling the dissipation of Carlo's life, a tear slipped from Zhang Yao's eyes, "Carlo, the real Sur is already waiting for you in the arms of the god of nature, let's go all the way." ”

Zhang Yao said silently in his heart.

"May the gods of nature bless ......," Carlo said as if he were looking back, and then slowly closed his eyes and returned to the embrace of nature.

"Carlo ——!"

Mournful cries rang out in the treehouse. The name of the valiant elven sentinel was called. It didn't stop until a long time.

Later, Zhang Yao and several elven village chiefs carried Carlo's body to the woods, took off his clothes, and let him come and go naked as when he came to this world.

Zhang Yao placed Carlo's thin sword beside him, and then stood next to him for a long time before leaving.

Back in the treehouse, Zhang Yao sat on Carlo's bed, a little sad.

The elven village chiefs had already left, and only the magician from the elven court was left in the room.

"We have lost another great warrior. The magician said in a deep voice. His face was also full of sadness, and the little elf who led Zhang Yao over sat on his shoulder, crying vigorously.

"The royal court should send more people!" Zhang Yao's tone was full of indignation. The territory to be guarded by an elven sentry is simply too big.

There are also too many battles to endure, and if this pattern doesn't change, casualties will only continue to increase!

"The forest is too big. The magician's tone revealed helplessness: "We have a pact with the human race, and we cannot have an army other than the royal court guard. ”

Zhang Yao was silent, he knew that the current elven clan had weakened, and there was no longer the glory of the elven empire.

The current elves are just a race that has been banished by humans into the forest to survive, they cannot have their own army, and they have to pay tribute to the human court every year.

Humanity, no matter what plane it is, is a greedy race.

"However, I have already requested an expedited change of guard, and the new sentry is expected to arrive tomorrow. The elven mage continued, "Sur, come back to the royal court with me. ”

Zhang Yao looked up at the mage and nodded, his main task was to find Yao's body in this plane.

Since the sentinel of the changing of the guard has come early, then he will be able to do his own thing one step earlier.

"After you go back this time, Sur, you will also be able to enter the royal court guard, and you must be more diligent when the time comes. ”

Listening to the familiar tone of this magician, Zhang Yao was slightly stunned, and hurriedly searched in Su'er's memory.

It dawned on him after a moment that the magician was still one of Thor's uncles.

Elven sentinels like Sur and Carlo, all of whom are children of nobility, can enter the royal court after experiencing the experience of sentinels.

Exclusive guardian of the royal court of the elves.

"I'll go back and pack my things first, and I'll come to you tomorrow morning. Magician Zhang Yaochong said.

Although he didn't have any luggage to pack, he still needed to say goodbye to the elven civilians in order to fulfill Sur's last wish perfectly.

Bidding farewell to the elven magician, Zhang Yao rushed back to his territory, although he was going to change the guard tomorrow, he still had to take care of his last shift.

Tonight's inspection still has to be done in earnest.

Without the urgency of coming, it took Zhang Yao several hours to return to his territory, and the sky was already dark by this time.

He hurriedly inspected the four villages, and said goodbye to the village chief and the villagers one by one. Then he took his clothes that he had dried during the day and returned to his small tree house.

He didn't say goodbye to Dinah because he didn't want to leave him with any more bonds.

Back in the small tree house, Zhang Yao packed Suer's simple luggage, then took a shower and went to bed.

The next morning, just after dawn, he woke up, put on clean clothes, packed his luggage and left the place where he had lived for a few days with the first rays of morning light.

On the way, he met a new sentry who had come to replace him, and after a little hello, the two parted.

Walking all the way, Zhang Yao came to the outside of Carlo's treehouse near noon, and the elven magician was talking to the sentry who replaced Carlo.

Seeing Zhang Yao coming, he waved his hand at him and said, "Su Er, come here! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Zhang Yao walked to the magician's side a few points faster, greeted the new sentry, and then said to the magician, "Shall we go directly?"

"Of course, otherwise we won't be able to return to the royal court before dark. The magician said.

Hearing that the magician said that he would rush back to the royal court before dark, Zhang Yao's eyebrows raised unnaturally, according to Suer's memory, the royal court was very far away from here.

It even takes seven or eight days to get there on foot, and rushing back before dark looks like a dream word.

The magician also apparently saw Zhang Yao's doubts, he laughed, reached out to support Zhang Yao's shoulder, and then chanted a string of obscure notes from his mouth.

Suddenly, Zhang Yao felt light, and then slowly flew into the sky with the magician.

"Little Sur, don't forget that I'm a magician, you can have dinner at home today!"

The magician took Zhang Yao and flew towards the Elven Royal Court, although in Zhang Yao's eyes, this speed was not fast, but it was much stronger than walking.

In the sky, Zhang Yao looked at the big forest like a green ocean under his feet, and suddenly wanted to sing a song. But in the end, I resisted the urge.

He was afraid that if he howled out the earth song, he would scare the elf mage beside him.

"I want to study magic when I go back this time. Zhang Yao said to the magician beside him.

The magician turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Okay, you will naturally learn magic after you enter the royal court guard, but Sur, didn't you learn magic the most before?"

"I want to learn now. Zhang Yao said indifferently.

The magician looked at Zhang Yao's silent appearance, and thought of Carlo's death, and naturally attributed the reason why Zhang Yao wanted to learn magic to Carlo's death.

Seeing the tragic death of a friend, you must be more thirsty for power than ever, as long as you have enough strength, you can better protect your family and friends.
