250. Elder in the Tree
"Are you trustworthy? ... All this is very illusory in my eyes..."Shou Wangyue recalled what he had said to Xia Zuo, "The Vermilion Kingdom is a powerful country, and my mother's younger brother, Zangwilli has several subordinates who can compete with the army, especially the shadow you mentioned, the shadow is a mysterious killer who can single-handedly deal with the generals in the rear of the army..."
Xia Zuo just nodded in her impression.
"Except for the Indigo Forest, this side has been chasing me for many years, and you only traveled once, and when you came back, you told me that everything was settled?"
As Watchmoon continued, Sword Mist agreed.
Long Ge saw that she didn't agree with Xia Zuo's meaning, so far, Xia Zuo had done everything right, and he even suspected that Long Ge was very annoyed, and when he wanted to say a few words to Shou Wangyue, Xia Zuo spoke.
"Then you don't think it's time yet? When is the time? Xia Zuo looked serious, "16 years old? ”
"Yes, as originally intended... I didn't have the legal right to inherit until I was 16 years old. ”
"Legal," Xia Zuo suddenly interrupted her, "The law is set by them, they can change it, rather than trust me, are you more willing to trust them to maintain the integrity of the original law, and then wait for you to reach the age of 16, obediently give up your seat?" ”
"The law was made under oath in front of the gods, and they couldn't go to the church to change it with a disobedient heart," Shouzuki hesitated as she spoke.
"Even if they don't change it, you can try to wait until you are 16 years old before returning to the city, then they will definitely stop you by other means, the closer you get to the throne, the easier it will be for the enemy's blades and poisons to touch you, you should face it, face it now, I have taken care of everything."
"What do you think? Lady Sword Mist, I need to hear from you. "Watchmoon can't make up her mind.
"I'm sorry, at first I thought everything was incredible, as you said, the worst enemy seemed to be destroyed overnight, no, within two or three hours," Jian Mist said to the watchman, "so much so that I forgot for a moment that Mr. Xia Zuo is a person who has been screened by the half-elf Barn, and after Barn's magic, Mr. Xia Zuo can no longer lie, and he has nothing to say about you, otherwise the "Oath of the Gods" will stop him. ”
Long Ge was displeased.
After receiving the affirmation of Jian Wu and exchanging a letter with Bahn, Shouyue went to Silver Scarlet City with Xia Zuo.
Now they were passing through the city gates, greeted by two rows of soldiers.
Before coming, the soldiers evacuated the crowd, and pedestrians on weekdays had to move out of the way of the main road to the sides of the houses.
The soldiers looked nervous, and the civilians talked about the appearance and life of the watchman.
She has half-elf pointed ears and a face that resembles the late Queen Hannah, what the hell is going on? The controversy won't last long, because after entering the palace, the whole assembly will reveal the truth about what Zangwill had previously hidden from the commoners.
"Come with me later," slowly walking on the side of the watchman's horse, Xia Zuo tilted his head and whispered in Long Ge's ear, "The shadow has coerced those ministers, but it has only temporarily dragged them down, and it is necessary to ensure that nothing goes wrong forever, and you have to be "enslaved", and then what happened to your "camouflage of light"?" ”
"I can already use it," Long Ge said confidently, "I'm not very skilled, but I can use it." ”
Xia Zuo was slightly surprised by the speed of Long Ge's learning, and always thought that it would take a week to recite that large scroll orally, but in just half a day? - Maybe Long Ge is good at completing memorization assignments. Just know how to use it, the skill level should be at Lv1, just enough, and the possibility of being cracked is also very high.
"Hurry up and practice, the more times you use it, the higher your realm," Xia Zuo urged Long Ge, "If the magic power is not enough, I will provide you with a magic potion." ”
"That's not a problem, Xia Zuo," Long Ge said as he spared the strand of hair hanging down from his forehead, "The magic power of the Marta people recovers quickly, because our self-healing power, changing limbs, wings, and even physical fitness, will consume mana, and eating a lot of food can transform the magic power far beyond that of other races, and it is difficult to see the bottom of the magic power, this little magic is not a problem." ”
Staring at Long Ge's hearty smile, Xia Zuo recalled the first time he saw her, "What if the magic bottoms out, will it turn into stone again?" ”
Long Ge nodded, "Petrification is a self-protection measure, and it is not an ordinary stone, it cannot be destroyed by conventional attacks, if the enemy attacks the petrified Marta people, using even a little magic, it will be absorbed by the stone magic power, turned into its own use, and revived the Marta people... But if no one attacks, it will be like me, sleeping for 10,000 years..."Long Ge lowered his eyes sadly.
"It feels like traveling through time and space, spending 10,000 years," Xia Zuo comforted, "but the end result is that you woke up safely." ”
"Hmm~! Thank you for that. As he spoke, Long Ge turned his gaze to the shopfront on the side of the street, a pottery shop, the door and inside the shop were filled with fine clay pottery—from small cups and plates to bottles and works of art of a certain size, and some of the pottery was covered with a layer of white or colored glaze.
"I am already grateful for Zeber's help to me, and I don't need to mention it now, but I entrust you with the practice of magic, and it is okay not to target it, the "Light Camouflage" will be released at will, and it will not be lethal if it hits people..."Xia Zuo noticed that what she said didn't seem to be listened to by her, and she also saw that Long Ge was concentrating on the shop, and she seemed to be very interested in pottery.
He pursed his lips and smiled, otherwise, this commission, just like the last time, buy the porcelain she likes as a thank you gift... Before you know it, it's as if you've become an NPC who issues commissions.
There were many people in the crowd who were terrified, and they were generally terrified of the unknown, but there were one or two of them, and the one or two who were terrified were the known—the ordinary-looking man lurking in the crowd, who knew very well who the female rider who was passing through the road was—the daughter of Hannah, the former Scarlet Queen, and Hicks, the Elven King, who knew better than even every soldier present who had been involved in a secret mission.
Because this man is a spy planted by the Indigo Forest in Silver Scarlet City, even if it is a human race, it can be bought with money. He would regularly send Paisi birds to the Indigo Forest to report the situation in the city, and as an insider of many news, after discovering the anomaly of the castle and the fact that the person entering the city was watching the moon, he also sent the news to the Indigo Forest in time at each time period.
In the House of the Giant Trees, the old elders of the Five Elves sat around a round table that seemed to grow naturally, and one of them banged on the table, revealing his hands and long nails like dead branches, and on the side were crumpled letters.
"The Vermilion Kingdom has actually accepted an illegitimate daughter! What do they mean!? He said. He was also the youngest of the five elders, Richards, who was over five hundred years old, and like the other four elders, his dry white hair draped over the shoulders of his uncoordinated pure white robes.
"Don't worry, remember the first letter?" One of the older elders raised his hand like dead wood and spoke, "The palace has opened the Giant Cross defensive wall, which is the high-level magic that can only be created by the highest security in Silver Scarlet City. ”
"Could it be... Is it the power of illegitimate daughters? Threatened the Vermilion Kingdom? Another elder said.
"Supreme alert..."The eldest elder, Wilmot, opened his long-closed eyes, "How long ago was the last time Silver Scarlet was on top alert?" ”
"Ten years ago." An elder replied slowly, "It is nothing more than an illegitimate daughter who has the army to crush the Vermilion Kingdom. ”
"The army? Unheard! And in such a short time, how is it possible!? Richards looked excited.
"Unless she has the strength to match a large army, or the equivalent of a handful of accomplices to a large army... If so, the consequences are unimaginable. ”
"Prepare for the worst," Wilmot clapped his hands to silence everyone, "At the last minute, we may need to summon the power of the ancient guardian of the elves, the god of the woods. ”
