The Chosen City, the Temple of Life.

Saint Alice looked at Li Mu, the leader of the Heart of Nature Guild with a respectful attitude, and frowned slightly:

"What do you say? Failed on a stealth mission to explore the ruins of the Maple Leaf Collar Titans? ”

She is the person in charge of hidden tasks "appointed" by Eve, and she is responsible for guiding and supervising many hidden tasks completed by players.

And Li Mu, who has long been famous for his high-level play and well-known video host of "Elf Country", is naturally one of the players that Eve hooked up in this exploration mission.

This is not only because of his strength, but also because behind him is the Heart of Nature, and the Gray Port owned by the Heart of Nature Guild is the closest elf city to the Maple Leaf Collar, not only has the hidden Amway Chamber of Commerce teleportation array leading to Maple Leaf City, but also has relatively convenient secular transportation.

At this moment, this well-known bigwig, who had already reached the full level of silver and was dressed in six god costumes (three of which were in an unrepaired state), also frowned slightly.

He bowed his head slightly and said with a slight apology:

"Yes, Lord Alice, we failed to infiltrate."

Alice looked surprised, she looked at the map showing the distribution of the Chosen One obtained under the blessing of the goddess in her mind, and said with some confusion:

"What the hell is going on? I remember that your guild should have a secret teleportation array to the Maple Leaf Collar, right? ”

Facing the question of the Holy Maiden, Li Mu smiled bitterly and said:

"We do have a secret teleportation array, but when we use it, we find that we don't know why it's invalid......"

"Invalidated?"

Alice was slightly stunned.

She glanced at the god who was sitting on the other side of the temple, leisurely drinking elf flower tea and looking at the scenery outside the window, and said a little seriously:

"Was it sabotage, or was it something else?"

"It's not supposed to be destroyed, and it's still functioning, but it just can't be teleported, it's like it's sealed...... Well, by the way, just like when we attacked the Death Desert at the beginning, many of the teleportation arrays we tried to build in the desert at that time also failed in this way......"

Hearing this, Saint Alice's brows furrowed even deeper, she seemed to realize something, and her expression became completely serious.

"It's time and space imprisonment."

On the other side, the cold voice of the Divine Favor Zero came, attracting Li Mu's attention.

"Time and space confinement?"

He said curiously.

"It is a power possessed by a god that can be exercised by the true god or by the church by praying to the true god to imprison the spatial teleportation within the realm of the faith...... This great force is often used in warfare. ”

Alice explained to Li Mu.

After muttering for a few seconds, she looked at Li Mu again:

"Your Excellency Li Mu, I remember...... Doesn't the Amway Chamber of Commerce also have a sub-base in Maple Leaf City? What about the Chosen One who is on duty inside? Don't they know what's going on inside? The Chosen One should be able to communicate with each other regardless of space, right? ”

Li Mu scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed:

"Ahem, Lord Alice, it's been a long time since our guild has stationed the Chosen One in Maple Leaf City......"

Alice:......

"And who's keeping your sub-base running?"

"Uh...... It's the president of our Amway Chamber of Commerce who entrusted the Human Chamber of Commerce there to go offline, hmm...... Don't worry, they have also been embraced by our missionary group, and although they are only shallow believers, they are indeed supporters of the Goddess. ”

Alice:......

The mission of the Amway Chamber of Commerce is still quite famous in the Forest of Elves, and its preaching achievements are remarkable, and they are very famous in the church.

To be honest, if the name of the president of the Amway Chamber of Commerce is not mentioned, Alice still admires this group of the Chosen One.

"It's a pity, if you are an ordinary believer, you can't communicate remotely, and the Oak Hand is not in the Maple Leaf Collar now, otherwise...... Instead, I was able to pray to the goddess and ask for contact. ”

She sighed.

If you don't become a devout believer, you won't even be able to attract the attention of the gods unless the goddess pays special attention.

And if the believer is within the realm of belief controlled by other true gods, the true god cannot even communicate directly with the shallow believers, even if the true god is the active party.

"Do you have a team to investigate? Grey Harbour is located on the upper reaches of the Vermur River, so if you take a boat, you should be able to reach Zero Roland downstream, right? ”

Alice is also talkative.

Jersey is the second largest city in the Maple Leaf Territory, located in the middle reaches of the Vermur River, on the east side of Maple City.

It was not open to players in the past, only merchant ships that passed by told the player that there was such a city downstream, and that it was also a city that the players formed a Chamber of Commerce frequented.

Of course, now that the maple leaf map is fully open, players with a full silver rank can go freely.

"Dispatched, we sent people as soon as possible, but the infiltration there also failed, the whole city was under martial law, and even high-level professionals were stationed on the docks, prohibiting merchant ships from docking without access permits...... You know, the trade we're doing right now is all smuggling, and of course there's no evidence. ”

Li Mu replied.

"Martial law?"

Alice was slightly stunned.

"It seems...... I'm afraid something has happened to the maple leaf collar. ”

The saint sighed slightly.

"That's right, something has happened to the Maple Leaf Collar, which is why I came to you and Master Zero in such a hurry."

Li Mu said respectfully.

Seeing his sudden eagerness to try, Alice's heart moved:

"Your Excellency Li Mu, have you already inquired about what happened there?"

"Yes, our fleet was wandering outside of Zerorand and rescued a half-elf girl who escaped from the noble villa of Zerorand, and obtained some information from her."

Li Mu paused, and his expression was solemn:

"Lord Alice, Lord Zero, Maple Leaf Collar...... It's supposed to be a war. ”

"War?"

"That's right, it's the Frontier Lord, the Frontier Boss of the Holy Mania Empire, who dominates the Maple Leaf Territory, seems to be the opposite, that is, a few days ago...... I think that soon there will be caravans to spread the news to the Elven Forest, and we have seen a lot of mercenaries on the shore, who should have been recruited. ”

Li Mu said with a solemn expression.

"Border Uncle reversed?"

Alice was stunned.

"Yes, it seems that the Holy Manian Empire wants to take back the power that belongs to the Border Lord, and the cause is a rumor."

Li Mu replied.

"Rumors?"

Alice frowned.

Li Mu nodded:

"Rumor has it that the true identity of the Frontier Boss of the Maple Leaf Territory is not a human, but a vampire who hides in the human world and sacrifices his soul to the Abyss Demon...... Then, in accordance with the Divine Edict of the First Emperor of the Holy Mania Empire and the Eternal Church, the Empress of the Empire announced that she would revoke the electoral power of the Frontier and deprive Cappadocia of her nobility...... Therefore, the border uncle is reversed.

"Just half a month ago, the Empress of the Empire had appointed Duke Lawson, one of the seven electors, as the marshal, and led the Third Guards Regiment of the Empire, as well as several large mercenary groups conscripted, totaling about 80,000 troops, towards the Maple Leaf Territory."

Li Mu's voice was deep and powerful.

Listening to his words, Alice and Eve, who was wearing zero vests, couldn't help but look at him together.

He knew in too much detail......

"That's what the half-elf girl told you?"

Eve suddenly spoke.

"Yes, Master Zero."

Li Mu replied respectfully.

"Where is she now?"

Eve is also talkative.

"She's in Grey Harbor right now, under the care of members of our Nature's Heart."

Li Mu said.

"Grey Harbor? Why don't you take her to Emerald? ”

Alice frowned.

Although the Heart of Nature Guild is the Guild of the Chosen with the best impression on her, Alice still feels that elves like this who return to the Forest of Elves should be accepted by the church first, guided by the traditional elves, and integrated into the new Forest of Elves.

After all, there have been countless facts that prove that the Chosen ones are too skilled in rhythm, and most of the returning elves, especially the younger ones, can easily be led astray by them......

If nothing else, just learning to eat meat and exploding foul mouths is enough to give Alice a headache.

It's just that after listening to Alice's words, Li Mu was a little hesitant.

He smiled bitterly and said:

"Lord Alice, it's not that we don't want to take her to Philip, it's that there's something special about her...... According to the Goddess's rules, until she became a believer, she was not allowed to go deep into the Elven Forest, let alone Fei Leng Emerald. ”

"She's not a believer in the goddess?"

This time, Alice was really surprised.

After all, all elves and half-elves who fled to the Forest of Elves were converted to the faith after learning the news of the goddess Eve.

"Yes, she is not yet a believer in the goddess, and she did not flee to go to the Elven Forest, speaking of which...... It's more like being fooled by us...... Ahem, persuaded to come. ”

Li Mu coughed dryly.

"Who is she?"

Eve said.

Of course, at the time of this sentence, she also secretly contacted the game network at the same time to find the vision of the players in Gray Harbor.

"Master Zero, she is the child of human nobles and elves."

Li Mu replied.

"Children of human nobles and elves?!"

Alice couldn't help but let out a low exhale.

Her expression first flashed with a hint of disgust when she heard the words "human nobles", and then turned into astonishment after hearing the second half of the sentence, but after being stunned...... It turned to a sudden moment, and finally, she let out a deep sigh:

"Original...... That's right. ”

For a moment, Alice fell silent.

Until Eve's voice rang out again, breaking the silence of the temple:

"It's Demacia who is taking care of her now?"

Li Mu was slightly stunned, revealing a ghostly expression of how do you know.

But soon, he realized that this was in the game, and quickly nodded like a chicken pecking rice:

"That's right, he's taking care of each other."

"What's her name?"

Eve is also talkative.

"Sophia, her full name is Sophia von Wells."

Li Mu replied respectfully.

"Sophia von Wells......"

Alice's expression was a little complicated.

"This is the name of a human nobleman......"

She muttered.

……

The eastern border of the Elven Forest, Grey Harbor.

The number of merchant ships seems to have decreased compared to the past, and the bustling wharves are much deserted.

This is in stark contrast to the lively scene in the city of Gray Harbor, and I don't know it, but I think this is not a port city that is gradually famous for trade, but a prosperous inland elf city.

In the inner city of Grey Harbor, the headquarters of the Heart of Nature Guild, which resembles a castle-like palace, players come and go, and it is bustling with activity.

Especially outside the welcome building of the headquarters, a large number of guild players gathered, and they looked curiously towards the building, exchanging heads:

"Where? Where? Where is the half-elf girl that Delma kidnapped back? ”

"Tsk, the innermost room is said to be a poisonous lady, and that guy in Dema was scolded so black that his face turned black......"

"Miss Poisonous Tongue? "Elf Country" is okay, I love this ......"

"You can pull it down, you, this is the plot character brought back by the bigwigs, hiding the plot."

"The one who failed in the exploration?"

"Yes, yes......"

"If so...... Is the rumor I heard on the docks true? There's going to be a war over there? ”

"I don't know...... They seem to know the inside story, but now they are going to find Alice and the eldest sister. ”

Players are talking a lot and looking forward to it:

"War? Doesn't that mean...... Are we going to have a new big war again? ”

"Don't get excited, it's the humans who beat themselves."

"Good guys, it's only been a long time since the game was played, and it's all 'human' and 'human'."

"Hey, I'm an elf now, after all! Goddess Saigao! ”

As the players talked, they poked their heads into the hostage.

Of course, there are two silver bosses at the door, and no one can get in.

That is until a player dressed elegantly with a red back comes over with a plate of delicious pastries.

"What are you yelling about? Let's go, let's go, I'm going to go in and deliver food. ”

It's Demacia.

Seeing him dressed like a dog, the players were stunned.

Then there was a heckling:

"I'm rubbing, Delma boss, why did you change this outfit?"

"Good guy, I can't even recognize it after changing the vest!"

"What about the exploding head? Where's your blast head? The exploding head is the body! ”

"Tsk, you don't really want to hook up with NPCs, do you? No way? ”

Listening to the players' increasingly unremarkable jokes, Demacia's face darkened.

You said that he is also a high-level guild leader, how can everyone respect Brother Mu, but he, the vice president, has no sense of majesty......

"What nonsense, just change your dress up and set up information."

With that, he entered the welcome building.

Leaving only a group of curious eyes:

"Set of information? Delmar boss still needs a special set of intelligence? Isn't he the best at fooling NPCs? ”

"Tsk, this time he seems to have kicked the iron plate......"

……

With the prepared pastry in hand, Demacia came to the door of the room, located in the deepest part of the corridor.

This is the best reception room in the whole of Natureheart, and it used to be used to host Alice and the eldest sister.

I saw him take a deep breath, put on a friendly smile, and then knocked lightly on the door, and said in a gentle tone:

"Miss Sophia, I'm Demacia, and I'm here to bring you lunch."

"Get out."

Inside the room, there was a cold and crisp female voice.

Demacia's smile froze on his face.
