167 Ceria's Background

"You ...... Are you going to save that human girl? ”

At this moment, a childish voice suddenly sounded.

The three of them suddenly looked towards the sound, only to see a thin figure carefully out of the pile of rocks behind a certain big tree, this figure was less than a meter tall, with strange yellow skin and pointed ears, and it didn't look like a human being.

"Goblins?" Asuna was stunned.

"Yes, my name is Toby, and I'm a goblin." The little goblin named Toby stood by the rubble, looking a little scared and reserved, but he still mustered up the courage to ask, "Are you adventurers?" Is it to save that human girl? ”

Tang Hao asked rhetorically, "How much do you know about that human girl?" ”

"I don't know, but I know where she went." Toby spread out his hand and had a beautiful bracelet in his hand, "This morning, when I was adventuring in the jungle, I saw the human girl, she seemed to have something important, her expression was a little flustered, I like to take risks, so I quietly followed behind her, suddenly, a huge minotaur ran out, the human girl exclaimed 'Sauta', and then was robbed by the minotaur, and the bracelet fell in the process of hijacking. ”

"You mean, she entered the Gran Forest on her own initiative?"

"Huh?"

"Did she struggle when she was kidnapped by the Minotaurs?"

"I don't think so." Toby recalled, then gestured, "But that's Sauta, the guardian of the Gran Forest, Sauta, who is simply invincible to us goblins, and even if that human girl wants to struggle, there is nothing she can do." ”

Toby said it for granted, but Tang Hao had an extra layer of thought.

In Toby's description of the little goblin, Celia is just an ordinary human girl who has no power to resist in the face of Sauta, but Tang Hao knows very well that Celia's background is not pure, and she can even be said to be the most mysterious person in the entire Arad continent.

A long, long time ago, almost five hundred years ago, Celia came to this world as an elf, not only has the memory of an ancient elf, but even has a power that even elves can't understand, so her status is noble, probably equivalent to the holy daughter of the elf race.

Since then, Celia has been living with her clan in the Gran Forest, maintaining the Great Magic Array, and the Minotaur Sauta is the guardian of the Gran Forest, physically, so strictly speaking, Sauta is actually a subordinate of the elves.

It wasn't until much later that a fire burned down the Gran Forest, destroying the Great Magic Circle. If the Great Magic Array is completely destroyed, the entire Arad Continent will face a catastrophe, so the elves, including Celia, sacrificed their lives and finally protected the magic array.

Since then, the ancient elves have all been wiped out, but perhaps because of the mysterious power that even the elves can't understand, only Celia miraculously survived, but no longer as an elf, she completely lost the elf's power, memory and physical characteristics, and became an ordinary human girl, that is, the Celia that players are familiar with.

It was also from that time that Celia turned into a cyber scammer, and she has been working hard for ten years, emptying the wallets of countless adventurers with her cute appearance, sweet voice and gentle smile.

Well, that's off topic.

In short, with Celia's status, even if she loses her memory and strength, it is impossible for Sauta to forget her, this minotaur has always been conscientiously guarding the Gran Forest in Tang Hao's memory, even if he is crazy, he has not forgotten his mission, how could he suddenly capture Celia...... At least he would never take Celia away in order to give birth to him, as he did with his own mouth.

Maybe there's something else going on here.

Big Stupid: Kaguya, do you know what's going on?

Tang Hao immediately asked in the chat room, since Kaguya has seen the plot of the new version of DNF, then he should know the inside story.

"Of course I know, but ah......" Kaguya said with a grin over the voice channel, "you're taking risks, you know what adventures are, right?" It's an exploration of the unknown, if you know the plot in advance, then what's the point? It's more interesting to explore it step by step, isn't it? ”

Wow!

What kind of bad taste is this guy?

Tang Hao was speechless for a while, and even Kirita and Asuna were dumbfounded.

But if you think about it carefully, Kaguya's words are not completely unreasonable, especially Tang Hao, who has always acted from God's perspective, and this time it may be a good experience to change the perspective, and he just doesn't know much about the plot, but he doesn't need to follow the plot!

In the past, when playing the game, I could only act according to the script of the game copy, either by this and who, or by the anger of the Imperial Army everywhere, as unhappy as I wanted, and even in the end, all the player's actions were under Herder's control, and it was simply Herder's marionette, who was used as a knife by her, killing this apostle and killing that apostle.

And now that he is free, why should he follow the script?

Since he is a free man, he has to play his own game as he likes, and one day, he will let Heard shine his blood bar and hammer Held's ***!

Of course, with his current strength, even if Heard really showed his blood bar, he was helpless, so he retracted his mind and refocused his attention on the task of saving Celia.

He looked at Toby and asked, "What about after that?" ”

"After that, I fled, wanting to go to the human village to report the news, and met those three adventurers on the way......" Toby pointed to the three corpses in the distance that had been eaten beyond recognition by the cat demon, with a sad face, "These three adventurers were originally going to challenge the Minotaur Sauta, so I told the human girl about it, and they quickly agreed, but just after walking here, I encountered the attack of the poisonous Elvis King, I barely escaped because I hid beforehand, but they ......"

Tang Hao walked to the side of the three corpses, and the bloody scene in front of him made him a little sick to his stomach, but he still endured his physical discomfort and carefully examined their hands. In the end, it was discovered that although these three people were all swordsmen, they did not have ghost hands, that is, they were just ordinary adventurers.

That's right, if it is a swordsman who has been housed in the hands of ghosts, how can he die in the hands of the poisonous Elvis, and it is impossible for the demon realm people, the celestial realm people and even the Void Ancestor people to be so rookie.

"Well, I've got a general idea of things." Tang Hao got up and came back to the little goblin, "We are indeed here to save that human girl, since you know who kidnapped her, can you show us the way?" ”

After what happened just now, Toby was a little hesitant, but after all, he still had an adventurous heart, and finally agreed, nodding and saying, "I can take you to Graca, which is the territory of the Minotaur Sauta, but I can't go in, because Sauta is the king of the forest, and if we goblins resist it, it will be miserable." And before we reach Graca, we have to pass through the Frosty Dark Forest, where a mad magician lives and freezes the entire forest, which is very powerful. ”

"I know that, but you've seen our strength, a mere mad mage is nothing." Tang Hao didn't pay much attention to it, the ice magician, Kirito has the power of the fire elite, just enough to restrain the other party.

Afterwards, the four of them packed up and hit the road.

Although Toby was only a young goblin, he was very familiar with the environment due to his frequent adventures in the jungle, and quickly led the three of them out of the ruins of the poisonous thunder.

On the way, Toby also told the three of them a lot of things, such as which lords in this Gran Forest could not be provoked, and which lords were easier to contact, and talked about the vulnerable situation of their goblins. After worshipping the powerful strength of the three for a round, he thanked them for killing the poisonous Elvis King.

"You don't know, how terrifying that poisonous Elvis is, always with his cat demons around, when there are adventurers who break in, they kill and eat them, when there are no adventurers, they eat our goblins, I have a lot of goblin friends, they were all eaten by those cat demons, and now you kill it, so I want to thank you."

"By the way, are you goblins at the bottom of the food chain in this forest?" Asuna was surprised.

"yes, yes, we goblins are very weak, and we have been bullied all the time." Toby nodded repeatedly.

"Isn't there a Ray Cano in your goblins? The one that discharges, it should be strong. ”

"That guy is also a badass and bullies us a lot."

Toby said hatefully, obviously, goblins are not so peaceful with each other, probably just like humans, as long as there is society, there will be conflict.

As he spoke, suddenly, the temperature around him dropped suddenly, as if cold air had suddenly attacked, not only Toby, but even Tang Hao and Asuna were a little trembling.

The only one who doesn't feel anything is Kirito, a fire elf physique, and first-class cold resistance.

"Look, there's the Frosty Dark Forest." Toby rubbed his body and pointed forward.

The three of them took advantage of the situation and saw a vast white area in front of them, within a radius of several miles, the entire forest was covered with thick ice, not only the grass and trees, but even the road was blocked by ice, as if it would not melt for thousands of years.

"This ......"

Even Tang Hao was a little stunned, this is not the case in the game!

With this wide-range freezing ability, that crazy magician Frost Krach seemed to be much stronger than he had imagined...... There are only three of them, will it be a little big?
