Running through a dense forest can be a painful experience, especially in the dark. Chen Kai had already hit the tree pole several times, and although he reacted quickly enough, he still couldn't avoid trouble in a high-speed moving state.

"!" Holding his nose in pain, Chen Kai had to release a treatment to himself to prevent the nosebleed from coming out. But even if it was very uncomfortable, Chen Kai still gritted his teeth and chased after Nero Ailu. However, after only less than 100 meters, Chen Kai gradually slowed down, as he found that the relief trees he was in were gradually becoming thinner.

Although there are many sparsely wooded places in the Denzel forest, those sparse areas are only a dozen square meters at most. However, the sparse forest in front of him was at least a few hundred square meters, and it was gradually spreading forward, and the trees became more and more sparse as you went. It was absolutely abnormal for such a sparse woodland to suddenly appear in the dense forest, so Chen Kai subconsciously pulled out the giant sword from behind his back and held it in his hand.

Not far behind Chen Kai, Xu Fei and the others gradually ran out of the forest, and in order to take care of a few spellcasters, Zhao Tiezhu and the others had to reduce their speed, making the distance between them and Chen Kai widen to hundreds of meters. Fortunately, Chen Kai has always shed very clear marks on the road, otherwise they would really not be able to catch up. As for what the marks left by Chen Kai, they were naturally the traces left by the movement of his huge body. According to Chen Kai's physique, it is basically easy to leave clearly recognizable traces when moving in the forest. So Xu Fei and the others don't have to worry about finding Chen Kai, the only thing they need to worry about is whether the distance between the two sides will be too far.

Under the light of the torches held high, Xu Fei and the others naturally saw the changes in the surrounding forest, and the obviously much sparse forest was definitely a good thing for them and a bad thing at the same time. The good news is that they can move a lot faster because the environment has become sparser, and the bad news is that they may have reached a special area.

"Don't be Teramis! Don't be Teramis! Looking at the gradually thinning environment around them, all the players began to pray in their hearts that they definitely did not want to rush headlong into the former capital of the Elven Empire, Teramis. Although they would love to see the magnificent scenery of the elven empire of a thousand years ago, the problem is that they know that if they crash into it, they will definitely end up in the same tragedy as the adventurers of Scheer.

However, no matter how Chen Kai prayed in their hearts, they still stubbornly chased Nero Ailu slowly, and the surrounding forest became more and more sparse in their sight. After walking less than 500 meters, Chen Kai suddenly found that there were not many trees in front of him. This made Chen Kai very strange. Because even if you have Teramis in front of you, you can't be completely free of plants around. After all, it's been so long. No matter how slow the trees grow, they must have occupied all the places, but there was no trace of any tree growth as far as Chen Kai could see. In the darkest time before dawn, the only thing Chen Kai could see standing on the empty ground was the dark shadows in the darkness not far away.

Looking at the dark shadows in the distance, Chen Kai involuntarily clenched the giant sword in his hand, and then stood directly in front of Nero Ailu. Because the swaying appearance of those dark shadows not far away made him think that the other party might be polluted. Although he certainly can't do these polluted people alone. However, it is still possible to give Nero Eru a chance to escape.

However, what Chen Kai didn't expect was that Nero Ailu didn't stop. Instead, she bypassed Chen Kai and walked slowly into the distance, and this time she did not use the magic floating disk, but slowly walked forward step by step with her staff. A faint ball of light emitting light on the staff illuminated the surrounding relief, and with the help of this light, Chen Kai could see what those shaking black shadows were. It was hundreds of corpses hanging from ropes. The corpses had all been air-dried, and the clothes on their bodies had long since weathered, revealing the withered bodies inside. But on these corpses, Chen Kai saw some differences, there were a few hanging corpses that had been weathered and very ugly, but there were a few corpses that remained relatively fresh.

The first thought that came to Chen Kai's mind when he saw the corpses was whether these corpses were being hoisted up for food, but he was soon rejected by his own idea, because he found that there were no wounds on the corpses at all. On the contrary, all the corpses were very clean, especially the legs, which were shiny and shiny, as if they were often wiped.

When a series of beautiful voices came out of Nero Alu's mouth, Chen Kai had not yet come to his senses. Because the current environment is definitely not a suitable place for singing, but it cannot be denied that Nero Elu's voice is beautiful, but the only problem is that Chen Kai can't understand Elfish language. At the same time, Nero Eru was not singing in ordinary Elvish but in ancient Elven language, so he couldn't understand it even more. But although he couldn't understand it, Chen Kai could hear the faint sadness and sadness in his voice, there was no doubt that this was definitely a sad elf song, the only problem was that Chen Kai couldn't understand what she was singing.

However, although Chen Kai didn't understand it, he directly recorded the picture of Nero Ailu singing and all the voices when he was appreciating, and prepared to put a tag on the Internet, which can not only make money, but also translate the lyrics through the power of the Internet. Although Chen Kai can't understand the elf language, it doesn't mean that there will be no players who can't understand it, as long as there is a player who understands the ancient elf language with the help of the system, then Chen Kai can quickly get what he wants. It's just that it will definitely take quite a long time, and what Chen Kai didn't expect was that when a few elven mages slowly arrived, they actually started chanting along with Nero Alu's voice.

Even Evelyn, who was originally the most lively, was humming along with a solemn face at the moment, singing the ancient elven ballad in her stumbling ancient elven language. The long ballad lasted for nearly fifteen minutes, when the first rays of morning light shone down on the horizon. Chen Kai, who saw the sun for the first time in the Denzel Forest, saw the souls of hundreds of elves slowly drifting away in the morning light at that moment.

When the souls were scattered, at least two-thirds of the hundreds of dried corpses withered in the wind and eventually turned into scattered ashes. Fewer than thirty corpses remained, and that included, of course, the few that looked lifelike.

"These people must have been very strong before they were born!" Xu Fei looked at the corpse that was slowly put down by Nero Ailu and the others and whispered, because only when a person who was strong enough in life died could the corpse remain undecomposed. No matter how good the environment is, these corpses have gone through at least a thousand years, and if they are replaced by corpses that do not decay for thousands of years in reality, they can only be mummies. However, these corpses in front of me are definitely not mummies, although several corpses are basically similar to dried corpses, but many still contain some water, and their faces remain intact. The most complete corpses were even more incredible, as they were sitting on the ground, barely wounded.

Because these elves are too powerful. So strong that it is impossible to hang yourself even if you put your neck in a rope. Hanging from a tree, they may need to hang for days and nights before they can die. And not because of suffocation, but because of starvation. But the elves all had a relieved smile on their faces, because they felt that death was not a pain but a relief. So they ended up dying rather than continuing to live.

When the last body was buried, Chen Kai and the others finally had time to look at the one in front of them. There is no doubt that this is a city or village belonging to the elves. And it's also an elven village from the previous era. It is full of quaint ornamentation and traces of time. The houses that have been preserved for thousands of years have long since decayed and are no longer inhabitable. The only ones that can be preserved are the treehouses that have been shaped using natural spells. This is because the treehouse simply distorts the tree's poles and grows according to the caster's requirements to create a habitable space. The largest space in the entire village was undoubtedly a temple to the goddess of nature, but unfortunately this temple had collapsed. And it was a ruined mess full of filth and blasphemous words written in the ancient Elven language.

Looking at the broken statues in the temple, Chen Kai could imagine how angry the spirits who destroyed the temple were at that time, because the goddess of nature they believed in had abandoned them and made it impossible for them to leave the forest. In desperation, these elves frantically destroyed a qiē, and even carved angry and crazy blasphemy words in the ancient elven language.

These blasphemous words have quite powerful magical power, because even after thousands of years, Chen Kai can still feel the terrifying and crazy power when he sees these words. Although he couldn't read the words, he could feel the crazy twisted thoughts of the words. After seeing these words, Nero Eru began to use her power to erase them almost without even thinking about it. It's a pity that her strength is a little insufficient, although these blasphemous words have been going through thousands of years, but the power contained in them is so strong that Nero Aru has suffered a loss without preparation. Eventually, these blasphemous words were gradually erased in bursts of black light, and when the last word that shone with black light was erased, the entire temple suddenly burst into an emerald green light.

At that moment, Chen Kai, who had been recording those blasphemous words with video, seemed to see the collapsed statue of the goddess of nature, and his eyes lit up, and then the entire temple began to slowly fluctuate with a faint amount of power. Then Chen Kai felt a burst of relief on his body, as if some kind of power that had been pressing on them had been dispelled.

"Thank you to the great goddess of nature!!" Feeling the fluctuations in the air, Elian's eyes flashed with surprise, and now that the goddess of nature does not know whether she has fallen or is asleep, there is nothing more than feeling the divine power of the goddess to make a believer feel joyful. Although this fluctuation was very slight, it made the entire temple begin to exude a faint power, and the incomparably thin natural aura began to spread in the temple. For Nero Aillus and the others, although these natural breaths are very light, it can be said that they are very small, but in the Denzel Forest, it is very comfortable for a few elven mages to have such an area with natural breath. In fact, it wasn't just a few elven mages who felt comfortable, even Chen Kai, the temple knight of the Dawn Temple, felt comfortable at the moment.

If the environment in the Denzel Forest is an oppressive environment, then the environment in the temple is a very pleasant environment. This comfort is a feeling of spiritual security. And not a visual sensation. Because no matter how you look at the dilapidated temple, it has nothing to do with the word comfort, but staying in the temple will make you feel very comfortable all over your body.

Xu Fei also felt a sense of relief when they walked into the temple, but it wasn't completely fruitless when they wandered around, at least they knew what the place they were staying in was called. At the same time, he found some books, many of which were rotten, but some of the books that contained magical powers were able to survive.

It's just that these books also come with a lot of seals, so these seals need Xu Fei to rely on their own knowledge to break little by little, of course, if they are handed over to Nero Ailu, it may be very fast. It's just that obviously this elven mage is not in this mood now, in fact, after arriving in this village, Chen Kai and the others found that Nero Ailu's mental state was a little wrong.

If Chen Kai and the others knew Nero Ailu's full name, then they would definitely understand why she was in a bad mood. Because Nero Elu's full name is Nero? Elune? Tyre? Falling stars. Basically, though, no one called her by her full name, as she changed her name to Nero Ellu. A legendary spellcaster of an elven empire. As for the name of the village, according to Xu Fei and the transliteration that Evelyn had read in the ancient elven language is Ruthernzoral, which translates to the place where the stars fell. It's just that Chen Kai didn't know this, so they didn't know that this village was actually Nero Alu's hometown. Of course, at the time of Nero Ael's birth. The Denzel Forest has been locked down for hundreds of years. So this is just Nero Alu's hometown, not where she was born.

But her mother was born here. Therefore, Nero Elu's memory has traces of this village, and Bartley, the mother of Lori, who has a very hot body, is Nero Elu. Although Chen Kai and the others have always felt that the two of them are not like each other, and Bartley has never called her mother in front of Chen Kai and them. However, in the Adventurers' Guild's quest record, Nero Aru and her daughter are labeled. Apparently Barteri and Nero Aru are close, the only problem is that they don't seem that close.

Of course, Ilian knew what was going on, because although Bartley claimed to be Nero Alu's daughter, she was actually just an elven orphan adopted by Nero Alu. The most important thing is that after an accident in a magic experiment, Bartley was unable to continue to grow taller and kept this Lori's body, so for a long time the relationship between Bartley and her adoptive mother, Nero Alu, was stiff. So compared to Nero Alu's poor mental state, Bartley, who has no memory of this village, is not in that situation.

While Nero Alu was in a memory, Chen Kai and the others were searching hard for something they could use. There was absolutely no food left in this ancient village, not even firewood for a fire. Because time has destroyed all qiē, except for stones and things protected by magic, almost all of them have turned into garbage with the passage of time.

Fortunately, this garbage can still be burned, although the effect is not very good, at least it can be heated. Of course, it was daytime, and Chen Kai barely needed to light the torches, and the whole village didn't know why the surrounding trees hadn't grown wildly and enveloped the village. So Chen Kai can bask in the rare sun outside, and then lie on the ground to rest. Of course, only those who rushed to the front rested, and they stayed at the door of the temple to rest. This dilapidated temple has become a stronghold for Chen Kai and them, and they even piled up all the things they collected around the temple to form a fence to protect the temple.

Although there seems to be no sign of the contaminated people in the vicinity at the moment, no one can be sure that it is completely safe. After all, they had just been attacked by the polluted more than an hour ago, and after all, they had no evidence that the polluted could only live in the dark. So although they wished to sleep in the sun in their hearts, Chen Kai and the others still looked around vigilantly.

The extremely quiet Elven Ancient Village seemed to be a place where time froze, and Chen Kai, who stayed at the door of the temple, had no other sound except for the rustle of the wind blowing the forest sea. It can be said that there is not much difference between the whole village and the forest, except for being able to see the sun, Chen Kai and they still feel depressed in the village, and only after entering the temple are they a little more comfortable.

However, after all, this is only a small temple in a village, and it has collapsed in many places, so it can't accommodate many people at all. Therefore, Chen Kai and the others could only continue to stay outside, and then bask in the warm morning sun and wait for breakfast. While Chen Kai was basking in the sun, Fei Yun was searching for things in the village, but there were not many valuable belongings in the entire village, because even if he scooped up more places, he only found a dozen or so very old-looking silver coins.
