"245 Schlowastraße ........"

Ye Kong looked at the house in front of him, shook his head and said: "It's really a 'street', in addition, there is only one house in the entire street, it seems that number 245 is also a blind number, no matter how many numbers it is called." ”

Complaining and complaining, Ye Kong still took the initiative to step forward and approached the house overgrown with plants.

Suddenly, the back of his hand was hot, and a prompt sounded in his ears—

System Prompt: You have found a clue to the advancement of the "Guardian Spirit", please talk to the mysterious swordsman in the room to get the clue to the next step.

"It seems that the target is inside."

Ye Kong no longer hesitated, stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Aggressive!

"Who?"

A hoarse voice rang out, like a rusty machine, which made people uncomfortably sour.

"A sword learner passing by." Ye Kong used his own experience and began to try: "I heard from the nearby residents that you are a swordsman and want to ......... you."

Ye Kong wanted to say 'sparring', but considering the other party's voice, it didn't look like a friendly NPC, so he simply said, "I want to ask you for some knowledge about swordsmanship." ”

Squeak!

The door opened automatically.

"It's rare to have a visitor to this hellish place......... Then you come in. ”

Ye Kong immediately entered, and the whole interior of the room was also overgrown with plants, chairs and wardrobes were crawling with vines, and the strange thing was that all the furniture was obviously entangled, but there was no smell of decay, but it was as good as new, as if it was integrated with the plants.

"Huh......"

Ye Kong's eyebrows furrowed, and then he looked at the center of the room, where there was a desk wrapped in plants, and behind the table, a slender figure in a cloak was sitting.

Mystic Cloaked Man (Level: ??? ）

I can't see any information, whether it is the level or the amount of blood, all of them are blocked, it is obvious that the strength of the other party is too much stronger than Ye Kong, so that the detection of the system is ineffective.

The other party was flipping through a book, and there was a small lamp on the desk, but it was not of the nature of an open flame, and a dark green magic circle was burned on it, and a little bit of plant energy gathered up, forming a magic lamp.

That's right, the whole house is full of plants, and if an open flame is used, it can't be burned into a boiler?

"You're not here to ask for swordsmanship."

The cloaked man put down the book and looked up at him gently, under the light of the spell lamp, Ye Kong also saw the other party's face clearly, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

It was a bandaged face, with dark brown blood on it, which also covered most of the face, except for the right eye, a small half-circled cheek, and half of the mouth exposed.

The other party's facial features are not exquisite, they are ordinary, but they have a pair of ears that are a little sharp. At the same time, her skin was a little pale, and her hair appeared to be a golden yellow, and these combinations reminded Ye Kong of a race, a half-elf.

Pure elf clan, her skin is more healthy and fair, not slightly sickly pale, and her facial features are obviously a lot worse than real elves.

Only the characteristics of a half-elf, which fit all of the above.

"It's actually a half-elf ......."

Ye Kong's heart was shocked, you must know that the Taylan Fortress, as the front line of the war in the north, is also a key area for human beings, and it is more difficult for an alien race to survive than in the Holy City.

Surprised in his heart, Ye Kong didn't dare to show a different color: "Respected lady, you said that I didn't come to ask for swordsmanship, which made me a little confused..........."

"Don't pretend."

The half-elf pointed to the back of Ye Kong's hand and said lightly: "You, you should be the person sent by Winifred, right?" Well, I ......... from you"

The half-elf sniffled, and the dark brown under the bandage became stronger, coming down the air, making Ye Kong smell a strong smell of rust, like an aunt's towel, directly covering his face.

"I smell the scent of 'Fragments of Eternal Night.'"

The half-elf spoke in astonishment.

"What's the situation?"

Ye Kong couldn't help but be confused, not to mention that the other party mentioned the 'Fragment of Eternal Night', just the sentence 'Winifred' made him scratch his head.

Winifred is the name of the legendary Sword Master, when Ye Kong went to the Central Holy City, it was from him that he took over the task of investigating the insect infestation.

Later, when Ye Kong completed the pest task, Winifred also rewarded him with a copy of 'Wind and Moon Slash', and in addition, the pre-skill of Edgeworth's continuous slash, Flying Swallow Sword, was also a reward obtained in that task.

How did you get to do with 'Winifred'?

For a while, Ye Kong couldn't think of a reply, and fell into a long silence, this gesture fell in the eyes of the half-elf, but she interpreted it as 'default'.

"Okay, that old guy has sent someone over, which means it's time for me to act."

As he spoke, the half-elf took out a piece of crystal from his arms, the color was like a rainbow, and the colorful light was constantly flowing.

Without saying anything, the half-elf stuffed the crystal to Ye Kong and said, "This is the Sun Soul Crystal, you take it back and give it to that old guy, remember to tell him that I have been lurking here for 15 years, don't let down my efforts." ”

System Hint: You have come into contact with the mysterious Cloaked Man and activated the story event - Hidden Elves, and the current event difficulty is Heroic.

“？？？”

Ye Kong almost wrote the question mark on his face, but he reacted immediately, with a 'positive' expression on his face: "Thank you for your hard work, I'll go back to report to the teacher immediately." ”

When Ye Kong said 'teacher', his face didn't change, his heart didn't beat, and he was so decent that people couldn't bear to look at him directly.

"Hmm!"

The half-elf nodded in relief, but said again: "By the way, I smelled the breath of the Eternal Night Fragment from you, could it be that you successfully absorbed it?" Hey, Winifred....... That old guy really has some way, I didn't expect his speculation to come true. ”

As he spoke, the half-elf took out a skill book from his arms and handed it to Ye Kong's hand: "Since you have absorbed the Eternal Night Fragment, the ability on it may be able to be used, and it is useless for me to keep it, so it is better to leave it to you." ”

"Thank you for your gift, my teacher and I will definitely remember your help."

Ye Kong accepted the skill book, turned around and retreated, and left the room quickly.

The half-elf watched the other party's departure, and his somewhat hideous face showed a hint of relief-

"Hmmm......"

"What a polite child."
