Chapter 61: The fig leaf says
Baron Wood's pale face was clearly distinguished from his long flowing blond hair, and Glenn's intermittent answer caused him to suffer a thunderbolt like a bolt from the sky, and his body began to tremble, and he had to hold on to the wooden desk with one hand, and tightly grasp Legral's broad shoulders with the other, so that he could barely support his trembling body. His hands holding the wooden desk kept grasping and clasping, his fingers wandering blindly between the wooden desks, sometimes pointing at the rattan pen holder, sometimes pointing at the * wooden board, sometimes grasping the blue fluorite on the wooden desk, and the whole person seemed to be soulless.
"What!?" Wood's lips opened slightly, he had the strength to ask Glenn, and his eyes kept scanning Niang beside Glenn, "What did you say!?" ”
"Mr. Tocke Hovent is missing." Glenn reported to Baron Wood word for word, a slight flush on his yellowed face, but after a few moments, the flush slipped away from his face.
"If you don't want to be exiled by me to the Far South, I suggest you better keep me quiet." Wood's face was extremely gloomy, and he glanced at the attic of the treehouse in a panic, "This matter, no one here can mention it to my sister Avenna, and whoever dares to reveal half a word he heard today is an enemy of my Wood!" I don't want Avanna to be hurt in any way by Mr. Tork Hovent! Even if it's just a little bit! ”
"Young master, you can rest assured that Miss Avanna has not yet returned, and she has gone to Miss Troyana of the Morn family to relax. As usual, she would have to wait a long time to come back. Squire Setarman understood Wood's panicked eyes, and he whispered to Wood.
"Your Excellency the Baron of Glory, please don't be too nervous. Miss Evenna and I used to be good friends. You may not know me, but you always know this. Glenn slowly took out the little puppet he often kissed lightly from his arms, as if his face was full of helplessness.
"From what you've said before, I can tell that your relationship with Teucer doesn't seem to be very friendly. Are you threatening me naked? You're trying to say that you're afraid you're going to reveal the bad news in an inadvertent exchange, right? Wood recognized the little puppet, which he had given to Avenna on her tenth birthday, as a sign of his friendship with Avenna's siblings, and he immediately understood the purpose of the man named Glenn in front of him.
"Your Excellency, this is not the case, Mr. Teucer and Glenn are a good pair in the training camp, they train together, and even suffer together, although because of their different cultures, occasionally fight a few innocuous words over trivial matters, but all of our team members can see the deep friendship between them, the warm spring breeze will always cough a little or two, even in the vicious fight on Tuon and the hills, they are firmly backed together, shoulder to shoulder, fighting together, even if the battle is a step too late, Maybe the walking dead brought us annihilation. If Team Legral knew every soldier of our Wood Elf Special Operations Team, the friendship between Teucer and Glenn would be visible to him. Niang cautiously rounded Glenn, and he looked at the Legral lieutenant with a pleading gaze that looked like an old engraving.
"My teammate Niang may be right, but Teucer and Glenn do have a good relationship and I remember it very well, and I remember Teucer being willing to take the heavy punishment for Glenn's training mistakes, which is very impressive. I believe that the members of the Wood Elf Einsatzgruppen know each other very well, otherwise they would not have been able to stand out in training and be consistent. Teucer and Glenn are really good partners in training camp. If he had a guilty conscience and had acted dishonorably towards Mr. Teucer, he would not have had the audacity to return to Sheffield to bring you the Centaur Chief's handwriting and gifts. The deputy of the Legral team made a preliminary judgment with a general understanding, "Not to mention that Glenn and Niang are of the same status, there should not be any coercion between them." I'd suggest we listen to Glenn or Nyon first, and I'm wondering: what the hell is going on? One moment it says Teucer is dead, the next it says Teucer is gone. ”
"Ral, I trust my eyes, but is he willing to be punished for Teucer? What you see is superficial, and I think I can read a person's heart. Wood shook his head slightly, "I can't comment on your superficial statements. Ral, is this also wishful thinking on your part? ”
"Well, it's true that we're only scratching the surface. On the surface, at least we think their relationship is not bad. Legral shrugged his broad shoulders expressionlessly.
"Glenn, do you know what that puppet represents? My sister sees you as a trustworthy person in her life, but I have never missed a person's face, and I still trust my instincts - maybe my instincts are really wrong, but I would rather be wrong than be deceived by someone else. You know what I'm talking about. Your words sound true, but I'm not taking the time to listen to your beautiful rhetoric. Say, I want you to be honest, otherwise you're sorry for my sister's trust in you, how did Teucer go missing!? Wood looked directly at Glenn, apparently skeptical of Ral's words, and he was just trying to regain the composure he had just lost.
"I took out this puppet only to show that I am capable of comforting poor Miss Avanna. That's my obligation, and I think you've misunderstood. Glenn's yellowish complexion does a good job of believing many of the subtle facial details that he inadvertently revealed.
"How did Teucer go missing?" Wood didn't pay attention to Glenn's expressionless explanation, his tone was full of questioning, and the uneasiness in Niang's flickering eyes had already been captured by Wood, "I want you to be honest!" This is my second chance for you! ”
"Trust me, Your Excellency. Everything I say below is true. It all started with the conscription announcement issued by His Majesty King Frevice II Wood Elf in the fall. The demons that inhabit the Gudebay region, this is what we call it colloquially, and the centaurs call it Alex Scourge, it is a huge flying monster or something similar to a giant mechanical device, Teucer and Mek walked into its great mouth, and the sudden closure of the giant mouth made it impossible for me and Niang to open it after them, in this case we were blocked by the closed mouth, we were extremely anxious and helpless, and the flying monster shook violently at this moment, Its whole body glowed with extremely dazzling light, and the sand and rocks around it were flying. In a few moments, he rose into the sky and flew quickly towards the place of eternal rest. ”
"Huh? Teucer walked in? Into the maws of that monster? The flying monster glowed with extreme light? Wood felt like he was listening to the incomprehensible legends of the ancient druids, "Yes, legends, legends! ”
"This is not a legend, Your Excellency! With the cooperation of the centaurs, we made our way through the path into the center of Goodbay, where the strange thing sits, and Mr. Teucer became very strange, and had a strange move on the Iron Mine Ridge before! As he fell to his knees in agony, two mysterious beams of light shot out of the surface of the strange thing, and after the beams disappeared, two metal skeletons appeared out of thin air, this evil thing we have never seen before, they seem to be full of hostility towards us, like a bloodthirsty humanoid machine, but strangely they did not kill Teucer, but instead approached us, their mouths spoke strange language, we could not understand at all, Dahl and we launched an attack on them, But Dahl was killed by the metal skeleton in a single move. Fortunately, in an inexplicable pain, Mr. Teucer turned around and swung his sword, and his sword was so good that it slashed two metal skeletons made of steel and iron bones together. Then we walked one after the other towards the strange thing. There were countless strange things in Niang's words, and even Niang himself couldn't help but recall that strange nightmare, and after a little embellishment, he couldn't help but shiver.
"Teucer getting weird? What does that mean. How strange is he, you use countless strange ones! Say it! Wood was puzzled as he pressed Niang, who turned pale and his eyes were stunned without blinking.
"I thought I had forgotten." Niang's tongue stammered, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, "Forgot everything about this nightmare." It's all so strange, it's really hard to understand. ”
"Let me tell you, Lord of Glory." Glenn's heart was in his throat, and he was afraid that Niang would accidentally say something, "Teucer seems to have become a different person after killing the two metal skeletons. He doesn't even know who we are. All he said was what the monster was called, the 'Flying Separation Module', and he seemed familiar with it. As soon as he and Mek entered the 'Flight Separation Module', the strange door closed immediately, keeping us out. No matter how we knocked on the door, it didn't respond. Then it was the flying 'monster' that suddenly took off into the air in a violent vibration and flew eastward. ”
"I am deeply disturbed by your description. It's like a sudden chill in spring. Wood stepped back behind the wooden desk and sat down on a wicker chair, muttering to himself, "It seems that I need to check the ancient druids' texts, this unusual accident seems to be inextricably linked to ancient legends." You seem to be talking about a strange legend that I have seen in some text. ”
"Perhaps, the strange legend you are talking about is true." Glenn remembered the books he had read at the Druids Altar in Sheffield, "And it is possible that Nyon and Gilberg of the Highlands are the true witnesses of that strange legend today." ”
"Oh, looks like you've got something in mind, yes, I remember! Do you remember that paragraph? Wood looked at the delicate blue fluorite on the wooden desk, and the light from the blue fluorite was like ripples in time and space.
"It must be that." Glenn dug through the text of the tome and began to recite the strange legend. The quiet Titan treehouse was filled with only the sound of breathing and Glenn's icy chanting.
