Aunt Radter came to Winnie's side with a bowl of hot tea, gently pushed open the stacked books, and placed the teacup on the table.

"You've been watching long enough, take a break."

“…… Hmm......" Winnie didn't look up, she gestured her finger to the handwriting in the book, and shook her head, "Thank you, Aunt Virtue, just put it there, I want to see it again." ”

Aunt Virtue stretched out her hand and pressed down the book in Winnie's hand, Winnie raised her head and looked at her: "Look at you, your eyes are red." ”

took down the handkerchief on his arm, still steaming slightly, "Come, raise your head, I'll wipe your face, you've been watching it for days." ”

"Hmm...... Okay, okay Auntie, I'm fine. Blinking tiredly, Winnie rubbed her brow and set the book aside, "I'll just rest for a while." ”

"Shall I get you some more to eat?"

"No need Auntie, this is fine." Winnie picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. "Where's Vere?"

Aunt Virtue sat on a stool beside her, "Just now Weier went to the teleportation array again......

"Still there's no way to get there? What the hell happened to Mount Wolan? Winnie took the teacup and looked at Aunt Virtue.

"I don't know, I asked." Aunt Yude replied, "Everyone said that something happened to Wolanshan, but the news has not come so far. ”

"What are those clergy doing? What did they do? Frowning, he sighed softly, "Forget it, anyway, those guys are haunted all day long, and they don't know what they're doing, so where is Ver now?" ”

"In his room, I guess I'm going to study some more stones. You two are really, one by one, ignoring your own bodies. ”

Aunt Yude put one hand on the book and saw the name on the book. "The Beginning of the Star Spirit", "The Fourth Age", "The Source of Darkness and the Connection of the Abyss"

"What have you been looking at lately? Ever since you and Wiel came back the last time, you two haven't stopped looking around. What the hell are you looking for? ”

Draining the water from the teacup, Winnie placed the cup on the table, straightened her waist, took the open book in her hand, and held the cover to Aunt Edward.

"The Beginning of the Era?" Aunt Yude followed the light in the room and looked at the cover of the book, the paper was already crunching, and the needle and thread on the cover had been gray and broken.

"There's something in this book that I'm not sure about yet, but ...... I mean, perhaps, there is something that has been forgotten by us astral spirits. ”

Aunt Yude frowned, "Oblivion? What the hell is going on? ”

“…… Have you heard, Auntie, Devil? ”

————————

In the Guardian Training Ground in Wolanshan Town, two figures staggered past, making the sound of iron swords colliding. The red-haired woman and Falt stood on either side, each holding an iron sword.

"Falt, that's a good response. It's been a long time since I've met a decent opponent. ”

"Miss Sana, don't sneak up on me with an iron sword." Seeing the red hair of the visitor, Falt let down his vigilance.

"Look at your dedication, you won't feel itchy. And I'd love to see what it was like for the high priest to appoint only one person. ”

"I'm not going to sword my own people." Falter put away his stance, placed the iron sword on the shelf, and pointed behind the red-haired woman who was eager to try, "Captain Sana, it's better to look behind you than this." ”

"Captain of the team, it's me." "Huh? Are your injuries healed? ”

……

The deep jungle exudes a pale coolness in the cool season, and the bright red hair is tied up in a ponytail, and with the armor on the body, it undulates among the woodlands, which is eye-catching.

"The barrier of the sacred tree seems to have weakened." Falt carefully observed his surroundings, the blood on the ground was messy, faintly pointing in one direction.

"Watch your surroundings carefully, beware of monsters rushing out." Sana stood at the head of the group, and the whole team stood in a formation that echoed back and forth. Holding a short sword and a small round shield, he carefully guarded the surroundings.

"Captain, here we are. Here it is. ”

"I'll go to the front first." Sana stepped forward and picked open the bushes in front of her with her sword, and the blood disappeared on a mountain wall behind the bushes, "The mountain wall? How did the bloodstains disappear here? ”

Tapped the hilt of his sword against the wall, "Falt, maybe you should take a look here." ”

Turning around, Sana found Falt behind her, "Come and see, Mr. Hunter. ”

Then he turned to one of the soldiers beside him and asked, "You guys were here last time?" ”

"Yes Captain Sana, since the last time someone went missing, we followed the trail of blood to get here, searched the neighborhood to no avail, and then we were attacked by spiders."

"Spiders?" Falt, who was crouching there searching, asked with his head down.

"yes, it's a big spider, it's black." The soldier said with some trepidation, "That thing is almost as tall as me, oh my God, it's a monster, it's terrifying, and it's very flexible." Sana frowned.

The soldier paused, then continued. "But it's okay, if it's just a head-on response, it's no problem for two people to be one. But ......"

"But that thing likes sneak attacks, doesn't it?" Pick up a broken branch on the ground, a trace of slime sticks to it.

"Yes, yes, in the dark of the woods, they were elusive, and when we retreated, many people were injured." The soldier still had bandages around his arm.

"Spiders?" Sana's eyes stood up, and the whole person showed a tense posture.

"Yes Captain, most likely, those spiders are bloodthirsty, and there are traces of drag here as well. I think those who are missing are ......"

Looking at the blood on the ground, a trace of anger flashed in Sana's eyes, "Damn... Falt, the trail is gone, can you find a trace of these things?. ”

"Pitch black spiders, witherborne?" Squatting on the ground, Falt muttered, "No sign of struggle, well, one blow." ”

Throwing down the branch in his hand, Falt looked up and said to Sana. "Sana, we need to tell the priests about the situation here."

"It's not necessary, it's just a few spiders, the priority is to find the missing person as soon as possible, spiders have the property of storing food, maybe they can still be saved."

"It's darkness, Sana, we can't handle this."

"Falt, don't you believe in my strength?" After hearing this, Sana's eyes widened. "Just tell me if I can find their nest."

"This has nothing to do with strength, Sana, the power of darkness can only be suppressed by the power of the Holy Tree, if we rush there, we are likely to encounter accidents."

Sana frowned, "Hunter's thoughts!" Falt, the people of the escort are all warriors, and now there may be people in need of rescue in front of them, as a warrior, how can they retreat without doing their best? ”

After saying that, he turned and shouted towards the escort. "We're in the neighborhood, we must find those missing people today, we must see people alive or dead and corpses!"

"You guys, in this direction, search in the woods, you, you, follow this road to find, don't let go of any clues!" Looking at the soldier leading the way, "You and Mr. Falt go back and tell the mayor about here." The rest, follow me and search along the mountain wall! ”

"Wait!" Falt stood there, his expression serious, and turned to look at the wounded soldiers, "Tell the Priests of Stal that darkness is coming, and let them get ready." ”

"Sana, I'll go with you. I can find traces of them. With a sigh, Falt followed.

"That's not the right direction." Falt, who was walking aside, moved his nose and came to a tree, looked at the imperceptible broken branches on it, and called Sana to stop.

"The smell of blood there has faded, but the smell of blood here is very strong." Falt frowned, thinking to himself, "Is it a deliberate attempt to lure us over?" Could it be that the thing is wise? ”

Turning left and right along the mountain wall, Falt and his party came to the depths of the dense forest, where the sunlight could not penetrate the tree cover, and the forest was dark.

A cold light flashed, and Sana kicked away the spider who was still struggling unconsciously, "Phew! "No one was hurt, right?" ”

The soldiers of the surrounding escort team divided into several teams of two and cut down the spiders that surrounded them.

"Looks like this is the Black Forest. The lair of those monsters should be not far away. Picking up a piece of black carapace from the ground, Falt said to Sana, "Are we going to continue?" ”

"It's a really uncomfortable place, are you all right?" Sana turned her head to look at the people behind her, "It's okay, Captain." ”

"I said, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death! Go on! ”

The group continued on their way, and at the end of the woods, they found a deep canyon. Animal bones and cobwebs, scattered all over the ground.

"Fresh bloodstains, it should be inside." Falt stood up from the ground and drew the sword from his waist, "Something's coming." ”

"Prepare for battle!"
