In the forest, there is silence, looking up, the sun is shining through the shade of the leaves, like stars twinkling in the sky, a little dazzling, but very crystal beautiful, revealing an unpredictable silence.

Aya stopped and looked into the distance, in front of her, it was the border with the Demon Realm, but Xiaobai and Xilin, who were walking behind her, were still chattering about the noise between them.

So much so that Aya had to remind the two of them to be a little quieter, after all, they didn't know what danger was hidden here.

Telling them to be honest again, Aya turned and climbed to the tall and stout tree beside her, which was the lookout for the area, where the elves patrolled every day, and which, by the way, had a fairly wide view.

In fact, when she was climbing, she knew that there would be no elves here, but when the facts were really in front of her, her heart was still uncontrollable and filled with deep disappointment.

Aya preferred that the elves had been negligent rather than in misfortune, and that she would hold on to the fence and look into the distance only when her feet were steady.

The coldness and desolation of the Demon Realm and the vitality and vitality of the Forest of Life seem to be separated by something, making the boundary between the two quite clear.

From here, the land of the Demon Realm is almost unobstructed, but the lush trees and dense plants of the Forest of Life make it impossible for the Demon Realm to get much vision information like the elves.

This is one of the few advantages that the Forest of Life has over the Demon Realm.

After a moment of stunned, Aya crouched down and carefully observed the lookout platform under her, there was no sign of any fight or damage here, so it was not difficult to judge that the guard elves left voluntarily, of course, the most likely guess was that they saw something suspicious and went to investigate.

Moreover, they did not want the elders stationed at the border to report the matter, that is, they thought that they could handle the matter themselves.

In other words, on the face of it, the number of intruders should not be too large.

That's all the information you can guess or get.

With a sigh, Aya jumped down the trunk.

But as soon as she arrived on the ground, she saw that Xilin was listening to Xiaobai with a look of admiration about how powerful and handsome Lopez was, which made Aya helpless for a while.

Really, that idiot is as good as he said, and he can get it after a few meals, how easy it is to buy, but Aya didn't step forward to stop it, because she also wanted to hear what López has been doing lately.

When she was listening attentively, Celine suddenly turned around and pounced on her: "Sister Aya, is López really that powerful?"

Looking at Celine's fluttering eyes, Aya showed a helpless smile, but the slightest happiness mixed in it really betrayed her: "Don't listen to Xiaobai's nonsense, he's just an ordinary person." ”

Celine pursed her lips, looking completely unconvinced, who made Aya's smile not convincing at all.

Of course, she didn't explain much, turned around and began to look around the lookout.

Because of the abundance of plants, the air and ground in the Forest of Life are moist, so it is easy to leave some traces.

During a meticulous search, she unsurprisingly found the elf's footprints around the lookout.

The footprints had become a bit blurry, and it looked like it should have been left for some time, but with a little more seriousness, it wasn't hard to make out.

Intellectually speaking, Aya should go back to the World Tree now to ask for help, rather than face the unknown danger of leaving a team of twenty elves unheard from alone.

However, after some expediency, she still took Celine and Xiaobai to follow the footprints and move towards the forest.

After walking for a while, a single elven footprint gradually mixed with a huge footprint, and it seems that the owner of this footprint is probably the root of all this.

Although Aya's head kept transmitting dangerous signals to her, she continued stubbornly on her way, and gradually, the marks became more and more chaotic, and there were huge scratches from broken arrows in the surrounding trees.

The footprints continued deeper into the woods, and Aya and Celine followed suit, and finally, sporadic green blood appeared on the branches not far away, and the truth began to be discovered.

But the anger on Aya's face did not subside, the corpses of the four elves fell to the ground crookedly, the green blood had long since dried up, and the emerald green arrows were lying alone on the cold ground.

Although she didn't show too much excitement about this, Ciline was taken aback by such a scene, and at the same time her body collapsed and fell to the ground, she was still young, she had never participated in any war, and it was the first time that she faced the death of her own kind.

Such a scene, Xiaobai has long been strange, death, parting, sadness, crying, it has already seen too much, sighed, it stretched out its wings to completely cover Xilin's eyes, this is currently the most effective way to stabilize Xilin's emotions.

But even so, Aya still didn't stop her steps, Xiaobai looked at her back walking forward, and asked seriously, "What do you want to do?"

"I have to deal with them, it's the custom of our elves, we are conceived from the earth, and when we die, we must return to the earth to sleep, when we come, without a penny, and when we leave, the same is true. After saying that, Aya also sighed rarely.

Feeling Xilin's slightly trembling body, Xiao Bai continued to speak: "This kind of rough work is still left to me, you should appease Xiao Xilin now, right?"

This made Aya can't help but glance down at the four companions who have lost their vitality, and then, only then turned her head to look at Sirin, stood in place and thought for a while, then raised her feet and walked towards Sirine, Aya gently hugged Sirin in her arms, turned her head to Xiaobai and asked, "Be sure to take off their clothes, please." ”

"It's a troublesome tradition. After hearing this, Xiaobai complained casually.

"The body is the seed, and the goddess of life will guide and bless them. It was an answer, but it was more like a prayer.

While opening his mouth and chirping, Xiaobai's size instantly became quite huge, it is worth mentioning that the land in the Forest of Life is quite wet, and it is not so difficult to throw a pit, the only difficult thing is to take off their clothes for them, although they understand that there should be respect for the dead, but now it can't take care of this, because those damn clothes seem to be sticky, of course, maybe his method is not quite right.

But be considerate of him, after all, it only has one beak and two claws.

After everything was cleaned up, Xiaobai's body changed back to its original size, and when he turned his head, he saw that Xi Lin's state had recovered a lot.

"How do you feel, little Xilin?" Xiao Bai asked softly after flying to Xilin's head.

Of course, its claws have been cleared, but the method is inconvenient to disclose.

"It's okay, Mr. Xiaobai, thank you. Although she smiled a little reluctantly, Xilin still used her own way to reassure Xiaobai.

Seeing that Sirin was no longer in trouble, Aya slowly stood up and walked towards the place where the four elves were buried, and Sirin quickly stood up and followed behind her.

Aya watched silently for a moment, then pulled four arrows from the quiver strapped to her leg and gently stuck them next to the pit.

Born to hold a bow and pull its strings for survival, strength is an arrow, and courage to move forward for protection.

This is the highest blessing and mourning that can be expressed to the deceased elf.

May the Goddess be with us.
