372.Chapter 372: The Glory of the High Elves
That's pretty much what Roddy and Camila can say about these plans, and depending on their relationship, they might also talk about some topics involving Nephi - but when the words came to his lips, Roddy lost interest in talking, his eyes drooped, he folded the map and put it in his pocket, and then asked, "Over there in the Holy Church... How long will that letter hold them back?"
Camila thought for a moment: "At least half a year." When they find out that they can't reach me, they will spend a while searching for it, and then they will start to suspect Elson City and finally assemble a team here. ”
Roddy nodded silently, then said no more, leaving Camila unsure of what he was thinking. She clearly felt... Since returning with Nephi, Roddy has been much quieter than ever.
Compared with the young man who always had this sunny breath in the past, Roddy at this time seemed to be several years older suddenly, and his brows were always slightly frowning and the breath of tiredness, which made Camilla always feel a sense of reluctance in his heart... She wanted to say that she cared, but she couldn't.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, and finally Roddy spoke: "That... That's all for now, I'll clean up and go first. ”
With that, he got up and left the library, and Camilla looked at his back, and stopped talking.
In less than an hour, Roddy came to the city square after eating a simple lunch, and Akasha, who was ready to go, was frightened by the "flight suit" he brought and the huge "Duck Duck" next to him, she still thought of what Roddy was going to do, and asked in horror: "I... Are we going to fly over?"
"It took less than a day to arrive, very quickly. ”
Roddy wrapped his leather coat tightly and swept his gaze casually, "Something?"
Akasha's steps forward suddenly stopped, she looked at the sky, then at the ground under her feet, and asked with a trembling lip, "How high are we flying, how high are we flying?"
"Well, it's about twenty meters. ”
Roddy could see that Akasha was "afraid of heights", so he didn't tell the truth at all, but helped her put on a leather coat and find a belt...
"Ah, why, why are you blindfolding me?"
Akasha didn't dare to resist, and stood stupidly in place, and then felt Roddison lift herself up and place it on the duck's body.
Wrapping the short bow and short sword with a belt, Roddy jumped on the duck, and was about to use the rope to fix the buckle on his and Akasha's leather coats, but found that the little priest sitting in front of him had a pale face, and his hands were tightly holding the feathers on the neck of the duck, and his whole body was tense like a zombie...
Obviously, she didn't have the mental quality of Naifei's ease, but in Roddy's eyes, "fear of heights" was not a symbol of shame or cowardice, so he sighed, directly turned Akasha around, and whispered, "Hold on." ”
Turning his head, he greeted Camilla and Nefi's mother and son, who had come to see him off, and then reached out and patted the duck.
The next moment, the giant bird took the two of them into the air in a comical posture and disappeared into the blue sky with Akasha's long scream...
Looking at Akasha's hands tightly hugging Roddy, Nefi smiled: "This sister is really interesting, she is so scared blindfolded." ”
Cammy stretched her hand and stroked her daughter's long fiery hair, but she pursed her lips and didn't say anything - Nephi didn't know what Roddy's real purpose was, but she did... His own destiny has been completely entrusted to him.
"Let's go, talk to mom about what's going on these days. ”
Taking Nephie's hand and leaving the square, Camilla wanted to go back to the mansion, but she hadn't gone far before she suddenly stopped and looked at Pachar's Tower.
The next moment, Camila's face was a little serious, she changed her direction of travel, hurriedly pulled Nephie and rushed into the magic tower, and then came to the front of a magic circle on the tenth floor, and carefully checked the traces of the spar on it-
Nephie looked curiously at the rich men and flickering elements on the magic tower around her, and heard her mother muttering to herself intermittently: "Traces of the frost element... Faint... Move fast..."
“... The traces are gone... What is this thing?"
"It's time. ”
At the same moment, in a clearing on the western edge of the Silent Forest, a gray-haired old man in a blue robe said this to a team of nearly fifty people in front of him.
Then he put the staff in his hand on the ground, and a hemispherical barrier instantly appeared and enveloped all the members, isolating the elemental fluctuations and sounds of the outside world, making the old man's speech clear.
"I will lead you to complete this mission. ”
His voice was not hurried, but it exuded the majesty and confidence of the superior, "I am Lucius, and all your actions in the future must be commanded by me." ”
The people in the woodland who were still talking in a low voice were silent - before this, although they knew that the middle-aged man in front of them was the leader of this operation, they didn't know that the other party was one of the elders of the Holy Congregation's "Elders' House"!
In the "Holy Order", the "House of Elders" basically means the current highest-level existence, and only a few people know that there is also the existence of the "Big Three" at the top of the "Holy Order", but for ordinary people, it is already an "untouchable" level.
And Lucius's identity basically means that his strength has reached the level of a "high-level arcanist" to some extent. Although it is not as powerful as the "Great Arcanist" in the High Elf period, if you compare it side by side, there are really not many mages in the Karen Kingdom who can match it.
Strength creates awe, and all the members involved in the action immediately bowed their heads respectfully, patiently waiting for Lucius's next speech.
"Before I do that, let me briefly state the reason for organizing this character: since the operation in Elson City has achieved nothing, we have decided to shift the target..."
"Through our research, we have confirmed that the method of making 'Charged Crystals' is not limited to High Elves. ”
"It was the Dragons who really put forward the concept of 'charging'. ”
"And the dragons... It truly holds the secret of the charged spar. ”
With a slight wave of his staff, the pale blue element immediately formed a crystal but ferocious dragon above everyone's heads.
"The Order has detected the tracks of a dragon hiding in the Silent Forest, and our mission is... Capture it. ”
Such remarks immediately caused an uproar among everyone.
As loyal members of the Holy Society, the Arcanists who can be selected to participate in this operation are all called "strong" without exception, and the more they know about the Arcane, the more they can understand the high status of the "Dragons" in this world.
To put it simply, they all have a consensus: even if they work hard all their lives, they may still be worthless ants in the eyes of the dragon.
The high elves are destroyed, the orcs are disabled, and the humans rise, no matter how the world changes, the strength of the dragons will never change.
Lucius calmly looked at the people in front of him who had already revealed a "cowardly" atmosphere, and did not say any nonsense, but just reached out and took out a short sword-sized... Tooth.
"The High Elves have defeated dragons with arcane in all their might, and this tooth is a testament to our glory. ”
As he spoke, countless incantations appeared on the dragon's teeth, and the arcane energy that rushed out like a volcanic eruption was almost suffocating, and the power from the pavement shocked everyone in place...
Strength.
Arcanists are tirelessly pursuing the word "power", and they can give up some of it, but they will never resist the temptation to "have power".
"The 'Tooth of Mourning', recreated by His Highness Waldennor himself, is enough to wreak havoc on an adult dragon head-on. ”
As he explained the role of this "artifact" in a non-wavering tone, the eyes of the surrounding members of the Holy Order all showed covetousness and longing.
Then there is ambition and the strong desire that comes with it.
"The 'Dawning' project has started here, and you... They will all become witnesses to the glory of the Holy Church in the future. ”
Lucius didn't ask if anyone was willing to quit, he just raised his staff slightly, spread his arms, and said softly, "Arcane, take control." ”
"For the glory of the High Elves!"
The shout resounded in his ears, Lucius narrowed his eyes in satisfaction, waved his hand to disperse the surrounding barriers, and then turned around and led the team into the depths of the Silent Forest...
