67. Infiltration
more
The guards of the City of Trees were not vigilant at all, and they didn't even interrogate Cheng Peng and their group of dangerous elements who didn't look like harmless humans and animals, but simply asked, "What are you doing?" and Liu Xuan replied casually, "Come to visit", and they let them go with a smile.
The astonishingly tall walls, the huge gates that might not have been able to be broken even if they were blasted by the spear of destruction, did not serve their purpose at all, and allowed the group of ill-intentioned adventurers to enter the city without incident.
The ground of the City of Trees is sloping, as it is not built on flat ground, but on the branches of the World Tree, Eugula Clan. Even if it was just a branch, this huge ash tree that supported the heavens and the earth was already huge beyond people's imagination - because the entire elven realm of Alfheim actually depended on this branch to exist.
On the huge branches that can support a world, it is naturally easy to build a small city. If it was humans or gnomes who built the city, they might have to struggle with how to lay the foundations, but the Elves' architectural style dodged the problem very well - their houses were all made of living vines or trees, not only sturdy, but also very earthquake-resistant, even if the World Tree often trembled due to the activities of the giant Ymir at the bottom of the tree, forming a strong earthquake, it would not affect any of the houses here.
This design is not ingenious, but the construction of those treehouses is extremely exquisite, almost every branch and leaf has been carefully arranged, and each room reflects a different charm, and it can be seen that I don't know how much effort it took the owner to get to this point. Grand Adventure 67
Walking on the sloping streets, everyone was constantly amazed by the landscape on the road, which looked completely like a group of newcomers to the city, led by the relatively calm Richard, into the city to see the world.
However, in the team channel, there is a conversation that has nothing to do with "sightseeing".
"It's almost time." Cheng Peng's voice was a little eerie, "It's time to send that cheap-mouthed bastard on the road!" ”
This was the opposite of his usual style, but it was unanimously approved by everyone.
There are some people who are born to pull hatred, whether they are good or bad, enemies or comrades-in-arms, they will involuntarily be full of resentment towards them, and curse them for planting hell even a second earlier.
This kind of person is commonly known as a mocking face.
Richard gave birth to such a superb mocking face - especially that mouth, which was absolutely infuriating.
Along the way, everyone has hated him, and as long as the situation allows, they will attack him in the next moment, and dismantle this slut.
But what...... We'll have to wait......
Richard didn't look for a hotel to rest in the City of Trees, he had waited too long and used up all his patience, and now he didn't want to wait a second!
So they just tried to make themselves look as unobtrusive as possible, slowly moving through the streets of the City of Trees, gradually approaching the second half of the city.
Behind the City of Trees is a large square, and I don't know what means were used, the trunks of the trees that should have been tilted have become very flat, at least there is nothing in the range of thousands of meters, and there is no shelter.
At the end of the square, there is a small but imposing fortress, the entire walls of the fortress are covered with magical runes, and many heavily armed and murderous soldiers patrol the walls of the fortress.
These soldiers are completely different from the lax and lazy elven soldiers they saw before, their strength has not improved qualitatively, but their mental state has changed dramatically, each of them exudes the kind of fierce spirit that only warriors who have experienced war, and their actions are also very quick, and they can't see any tiredness or mud and water.
After being reprimanded for trying to get close to the city wall, the group slowly retreated, retreated outside the square, and sat down on a row of benches on the side of the street to discuss countermeasures.
Looking at the serious and brave soldiers, everyone frowned.
Famous football coach Bola? Milutinović famously said: "Attitude is the most important thing". For the ill-intentioned, a group of serious guards is more troublesome than the latter, even if they are less numerous and less powerful, than a group of unscrupulous guards.
Let alone...... The guards on the walls of this fortress, both in quantity and quality, will not lose to those near the walls of the City of Trees.
"Where is that 'Temple of Eternal Verdant'?" Liu Xuan asked in a deep voice, "Do you have to enter this fortress?" Adventure 67
Richard stared intently at the heavily guarded fortress and sighed after a long while.
"That's right, this fortress is the real royal city of the elves, the 'Green Capital', and the 'Eternal Green Temple' where the primeval elves live is suspended in the core of the Green City - it is a piece of jade floating in the air, and it requires the right spell to open the passage there, and then when it comes out, it needs another set of spells." Richard said, "But I didn't expect the guards in the Green City to be parallel ......."
"What's that spell?" Cheng Peng asked, "I'm still a little confident in my stealth ability, tell me the spell, and I'll go in and find out the information alone." ”
Richard raised his eyebrows slightly, and said confidently: "You can't learn, this is an intellectual gap." ”
Cheng Peng's hanging hands squeezed twice violently, but after all, he still didn't have a seizure, but he finally suppressed his anger, and said in a muffled voice, "I'll go in and investigate", and turned to leave.
He walked far at a very ordinary pace, turned around two street corners, and then turned into a shop to take a look, and bought a woodcarved amulet made from the branches of the World Tree - a five-star silver-level equipment that can increase the maximum health, and the price is medium to high in the entire store. After doing this, he said goodbye to the smiling clerk and slowly walked out of the store.
However, just as he turned past the door of the shop and into the unnoticeable shadow, he suddenly jumped out, and the whole person seemed to turn into a streamer, and in the blink of an eye, he bypassed several rooms, followed the chosen route along the way to the edge of the square, and then galloped against the ground at an indescribably fast speed, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed the entire square, and drilled into the fortress from the dead ends of the two satellite lines!
This is something that only Cheng Peng can do, "sneak in"!
