The ancient forest at the end of summer looks unusually clean.

The sun is shaded by the dense foliage overhead, so you don't feel any heat.

Dylan and his party set off from Darnassus and walked slowly towards Lake Dia in the heart of the Ancient Forest.

This time, he was accompanied by Tal and Ngru, as well as twenty elven guards specially assigned by the elven king.

Originally, when Tal made a request to follow the form, the Elf King strongly objected, but he couldn't stand the soft grinding and hard bubbles of Tal this guy, and in the end the Elf King could only agree to him.

However, the condition of the accompanying party was that Ngelul must go with him, and twenty elven guards were also sent as security. After all, there is some kind of terrible creature living in Lake Dia, which is something that all elves know. As an elven prince, Tal naturally can't afford to make any mistakes.

This time, Tal was able to convince his father to accompany Dylan to Lake Dia, and he was naturally happy.

But when he saw the teacher Englu who was closely following him, and the twenty elven guards with serious expressions behind him, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Tal muttered in a low voice, "I'm not a child, why do I need so many people to follow! Besides, in this forest, I can communicate with any living thing, and where do I need so many people to protect me?" Besides, Dylan's strength is already so strong, my father is really doing this!"

Nglu coughed lightly: "Tar, I'm not deaf!"

Tal smiled awkwardly at Engru.

Dylan, who was on the side, could only shake his head helplessly.

"Tár, there's no need for you to come with me, it's too dangerous. Dylan said.

Tal muttered, "What? Now even you start to dislike me, think I'm too weak to go on an adventure with you?"

Dylan waved his hand: "I didn't mean that, I just think that as an elven prince, you are the hope of the elven clan in the future, and you should not be in danger." ”

Tal ignored all of this, and said without looking back, "Don't worry, I won't drag you down." ”

Dylan saw that Tal still misunderstood what he meant, and he could only smile helplessly.

Ngro looked at the sky: "It's already afternoon, and in another hour, we must find a safe place to stop and rest, and travel at night in the Ancient Forest, that is not a wise move." ”

"There should be a small village ten miles ahead, so let's stay there for the night tonight, and then set off tomorrow morning. According to the current speed of travel, it is estimated that we should be able to reach Dia Lake the morning after tomorrow. ”

Dylan naturally has no opinion on this.

After walking some more distance, Dylan finally saw small cabins built on top of several large trees in the distance.

"That's Konoha Village. Nglu pointed to a small village in the distance.

The group soon arrived in Konoha Village.

The elves here, after seeing Engru, all looked extremely respectful and somewhat restrained.

The elven village chief was by Engru's side the whole time, asking if there was any need.

After a period of communication, the elven village chief realized that it seemed that the Prophet was more approachable and did not have any pretensions.

At this time, his restraint eased a lot, and his speech and behavior became natural.

"Is there a shortcut from here to Lake Dia?" asked Ngru.

The elven village chief named Tim thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, yes, but it is a dangerous path, with a cliff on one side and a cliff on the other. However, if you take that route, you can save about half a day because you can go around the winding mountain. ”

Engrew subconsciously looked at Dylan on the side, as if asking for Dylan's opinion.

Dylan nodded slightly, for him, the sooner the better, since there are shortcuts, why waste time.

Tim was visibly surprised by the image.

Originally, the elves here were already shocked that the Prophet had come with a human.

It was all the more incredulous to see that the Prophet had asked for the opinion of a human.

"Alright, Tim, will you be able to show us the way tomorrow?" asked Engru.

Tim was slightly stunned, and then nodded hurriedly: "No problem, no problem." ”

After this was decided, Dylan and the others settled in this small village under Tim's arrangement.

It was soon dark, and Dylan stood at the door of the hut and looked down, and found that on the ground around the village, every ten meters or so, there would be a bright light to illuminate the surroundings.

The scene is essentially the same as that of Darnassus.

According to Tarr, the lights are mainly meant to stop some terrible things in the forest at night.

In fact, Dylan has always been curious, do those so-called ghost riders really exist?

Looking at the inexplicable fog around it, it made the already dark forest even more unpredictable.

With the help of his night vision, Dylan saw a nightbladed leopard crouching quietly by a stream in the distance, waiting for its prey to come to the door automatically.

And in the sky, a midnight snack is also circling with its wings, searching for its prey.

Dylan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, he could feel all the breath of life within a radius of more than ten miles, and found that there were no high-level demonic beasts, and there were no too powerful souls, he couldn't help but feel a lot more at ease.

Just then, Tal came to his side.

"What are you doing?" Tal asked curiously, seeing that Dylan had his eyes closed and didn't say a word.

Dylan opened his eyes: "I'm feeling the creatures around me. ”

Tal was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Can you communicate with them too?"

Dylan shook his head, "No! I can just feel the life of the animals and be able to tell their rank." Because I'm a shadow mage and have a dragon heritage, I have a strong sense of perception. ”

It dawned on Tal to him.

At this moment, Tal suddenly changed his complexion, his face showed horror, his lips trembled and said, "They, they are coming!"

Dylan was taken aback by Tár's appearance, and he quickly asked, "What's wrong?

Tarr turned his head abruptly and said to Dylan, "The animals in the forest told me that the Ghost Riders are coming. ”

Then Tal pointed to the west: "There, five or six miles away. ”

Dylan frowned, he used the secret method of the dragon inheritance to investigate again, but still found nothing.

At this time, Dylan suddenly realized that the ghost cavalry was not a living thing in the first place, and he naturally had no way to perceive it. Baidu: Read the latest chapter of "Hell Codex Jiezhong Literature" for free for the first time.
