The sky and the earth are long, the pot shell is heavy, and the heavy dark clouds are like the lid of the pot shrouded in the sky, and the moonlight cannot penetrate the slightest.

The raindrops that fell in the darkness hit the faces of pedestrians like pebbles, making it impossible to open their eyes.

The cold rain slid down his cheeks and ran down his neck, gradually soaking his whole body and carrying away the warmth of his body little by little.

Fueling the power of the raindrops was the wind that whistled between heaven and earth.

The rampaging wind carried raindrops into every inch of space it could reach, helping the rain to wash everything it encountered between heaven and earth without recklessness.

Charles was a runner in the woods, ignoring the torrential rain and the muddy and slippery roads beneath his feet.

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating a world of heaven and earth.

Charles looked back, and by the light of lightning, he saw that the tide of dark red was still following him.

It was a group of snakes more than two meters long, and these snakes had dark red bodies and a male crown sarcoma on their heads.

At this time, there were hundreds of snakes following Charles, and they were chasing Charles on the ground, and they had the momentum of not biting Charles to death.

After leaving Sycamore that day, Charles walked for two days in the woodlands to the west, and this evening he was cooking something to eat on the grass beside a small lake, and then finding a place to escape the impending heavy rain.

Not long after he picked up two snake eggs from the grass that reached his waist and boiled them in clean water and ate them, a cockscomb snake emerged from the grass and pounced on Charles.

Charles swung his knife and slashed at the snake, but at the moment when the big knife slashed the snake's body, the snake's body became weak, and the power of the big knife was dissolved by dissipating force. Coupled with the fact that the scales on the snake's body were very hard, the snake was just knocked out and did not suffer any damage.

As soon as the snake hit the ground, the grass shook violently, as if a strong wind was blowing, and then the dense head of the snake was lifted from the grass.

At first, he tried to use magic to destroy the snakes, but the snakes were so nimble that they easily dodged magical attacks. Range magic doesn't work, these snakes actually spread out to chase him, and they can't hit many at a time.

Then he tried to use the demonic poison magic, and the snakes were immune to the poison.

Then in the face of snakes coming up from all directions, he had no choice but to run away, and he didn't even have pots and pans.

Who knew that the snake also crawled fast, and it seemed to lock him, chasing Charles into the sky and the ground.

When he first started to flee, he was still flying towards him, but the storm soon came, and this kind of flying was no different from suicide. The dark woods were overgrown, and he didn't want to be stuffed into the trees, so he also dismissed the idea of using teleportation.

Seeing the light of lightning shining out of a dark cave in the distance, Charles didn't care if there were jackals, tigers and leopards or other magical beasts in it, he ran in first, and then took advantage of the narrow terrain at the entrance of the cave to slowly kill these snakes.

So he used teleportation to teleport himself outside the cave.

As a result, as soon as he entered the hole, he immediately felt that he had triggered something.

Immediately after, the sound of breaking wind sounded, and two sharp arrows came towards him from the depths of the cave with the sound of the wind.

Charles dodged the five arrows flying overhead in a fierce tiger landing and shouted, "Friendly army!"

This tactic of luring the enemy with arrows with the sound of breaking the wind, and then killing the enemy with silent arrows is commonly used by elves, and the novice archery bird Ru someone can't think of the techniques used in this tactic.

Charles judged that this was most likely a resting spot for the elven patrol here, and he accidentally strayed into this place, and just now he touched the vigilance magic.

He opened the "Soul Vision" and found that there was only one powerful elf inside the cave.

At this moment, an elf with a magic lamp came out of the cave, and she looked at Charles through the light, and her brow furrowed.

"Fish-people?" she asked.

Charles shook his head, "Human, my name is Charles......"

At this time, the female elf suddenly listened to the voice outside, and then asked in a cold voice, "Something is chasing you?"

Charles replied: "More than a hundred snakes more than two meters long, they are dark red ......"

"There's a cockscomb on its head, right?" the elf asked hurriedly.

"Yes. Charles nodded.

"[Elf foul]!" the elf scolded fiercely, "Men are really troublesome!"

After saying that, she grabbed Charles's neck and threw her backhand into the depths of the cave.

Then she took a few steps back, crouched down, and lifted a large stone slab from the ground, just enough to block the cave passage.

After sealing off the passage, she clapped her hands, picked up the magic lamp on the side, and said to Charles, "Come with me." ”

Charles followed the elf into the cave, only to see that after passing through a layer of black fog, the seven rooms and one living room in the cave startled him.

It was apparently a small stronghold of the elves, and at the end of the passage was a hall nearly ten meters long and three or four meters wide, with a lamp hanging from the ceiling of the hall, and seven rooms around the hall. There are also several openings in the ceiling, under which there are ladders.

"Sit down. The elf pointed to a stone chair in the hall for Charles to sit on, "Please take care of yourself here these days." ”

Charles looked at the elf in confusion, she looked a little older than Elizabeth, but younger than Victoria, with white hair, golden pupils, and the figure of a "mountain elf".

The elf waved his hand at Charles, and a hot wind blew around him, drying his rain-soaked clothes.

The temperature of the hot air seemed to be a little higher, and Charles's face was blown red.

"Have you eaten the cockscomb?" the elf asked Charles angrily.

"Ate two snake eggs. Charles replied honestly.

"Can you be a little more stupid?" said the elf helplessly, "Didn't you tell you that cockscomb snakes can't be eaten......"

It took Charles a while to realize that the "little white" that the other party said was Elizabeth, and there were not many elves who dared to call Elizabeth that.

At this time, the elf continued to say in fragments: "How can Xiao Baibai put up such a brainless child as you, your brain will be broken when you see food, and you are not afraid of being eaten by a demonic beast one day......"

Charles thought about it for a while, and based on the information he got before, he quickly determined the identity of the other party - Arethosa, the administrator of Crystal City, the administrative center of this region.

This Arethosa is a relative of the old Charles's queen's family, and according to the elder Charles, Arethosa is a cousin who grew up fighting with Elizabeth.
