Chapter 80: The Vanishing Chest
"Brother Allen, how are you..."
When sharing the last bit of jerky with the little girl, Stanny suddenly found that Alan didn't eat anything, and when he was about to ask, Alan stopped him with his eyes, and then mouthed the little girl Nunu, Stanny immediately understood that this matter could not be made silent for the little girl to know.
"Alan, here you go..."
As Eren gave Stany a look, Fresnel leaned over and put his slender hand in front of Alan. Fresnel held a silk handkerchief in his hand, and Alan took it, and the silk handkerchief was embroidered with exquisite patterns, and when he opened the silk handkerchief, Alan saw three familiar things, green cakes in the shape of plum blossoms, which she had taken out in the Congo Mountains.
"Eat, I'll leave it for you. ”
Fresnel looked at Alan, her beautiful eyes full of anticipation.
"I'm not hungry, you can stay. ”
Alan picked up a piece of cake with his hand, and was about to put it in his mouth, when he suddenly saw Fresnel's pretty face close at hand, and the big and somewhat exaggerated eyes on his pretty face, her eyes were not bigger, but her face was much thinner and her eyes were much bigger, all the way up the mountain, Alan almost didn't see her and Sergei eat any food, these two pieces of bread are estimated to be saved by her, how she can bear to eat, so she put down the cake again, rewrapped it, and returned it to Fresnel.
"Elves don't need a lot of food, it's for you, I don't eat it. ”
Seeing Alan staring at herself, a flush appeared on Fresnel's face, she stopped Eren with her small hand, the hands of the two touched together, her hands were very cold, and the warm feeling from Alan's hand seemed to be an irresistible hot current along her arm to her chest, making her heart beat violently.
"So be it. Three small cakes, one for each of the three of us. ”
Alan understood the stubbornness in the character of the beautiful elf, and instead of continuing to force Fresnel to take back the food, he retracted his hand and pointed to Sergei, who was standing there staring at the box not far away. During this period of time, several people took turns to keep an eye on the box, and they didn't stop for almost a minute, just worried that they would miss some clues.
"I don't want to. ”
Fresnel withdrew his hand and curled his fingers into his palm, as if trying to keep the temperature of his fingertips longer.
"This is the order of the Great Elder, and it must be carried out. Sergey, you come here. ”
Alan said with a straight face and an unquestionable tone.
"Alan, what do you command?"
Hearing Eren call himself, Sergei took his eyes off the box, and he and Fresnel called Eren by his name as Alan's request to them.
"There are three loaves of bread here, one for each of the three of us. ”
Alan said, pointing to the spread out silk handkerchief.
At the sight of the green cake, Sergei's eyes flashed with excitement, but it quickly dimmed again. Of course, he knew that this was left by Fresnel to Allen, and as the Great Elder of Allen, Fresnel should also do this, he was not surprised, but if he was allowed to eat, he would be a little hesitant.
"No, I'm still holding on. ”
Sergey refused.
"This is my order, it must be carried out. ”
Eren reasserted the authority of the Great Elder.
"Can you leave my share to Fresnel?"
Sergei looked at Fresnel with a complicated gaze.
"No, I don't. We are one by one, and if we want to die, we will die together, and it is also our honor to be able to accompany the Great Elder. ”
Fresnel changed her mind and said in a harsh tone, and after saying that, she first picked up a piece of green cake from the silk handkerchief and put it to her mouth, lightly opened her lips and bit a small bite, and then picked up another piece and threw it to Sergei.
Sergei hesitated for a moment when he received it, and finally ate the green cake.
Alan was the last to eat the green cake, the green cake was not big, but after the stomach, he soon felt a trace of heat in his stomach, and these calories were transported to the whole body, which not only greatly reduced people's hunger, but also added a little strength. No wonder the two elves have been able to hold on to this point with very little food, this little green cake is by no means ordinary, and the energy it can provide is probably ten times that of ordinary food, but the taste is slightly light.
"Let's go! Prepare to go down the mountain. ”
After eating the green cake, Alan felt that his body was full of strength, at least he could make himself hold on to the bottom of the mountain to meet Elvis, hoping that Elvis had opened the passage, and they could at least escape first, as for how to find the dragon next, they could only slowly figure out a way. But just as Alan stood up, patted the ice chips on his robe and prepared to leave the ice room that had tormented him for more than ten days, a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his brain, and it was as if something in the depths of his mind had been touched, but this feeling was very short-lived, and it had disappeared in just a flash, and Alan wanted to experience it again and there was no way to find it.
Just when Alan was feeling a little confused about the strange sensation in his brain, Sergei, who had always been calm and calm behind him, cried out as if he had seen a ghost:
"The box is gone, the box is gone!"
"What!?"
Alan thought he was hallucinating, and turned his head just in time to see Sergei's eyes staring straight at the center of the two icicles, where the recess was now empty, and the box that had been lying motionless in the recess a few seconds ago was nowhere to be seen.
Alan couldn't believe his eyes, he lifted the illuminated magic array and rushed to the vicinity of the groove a few steps to confirm that he was indeed not dazzled, and several other people also noticed the change and followed.
"What just happened? Has anyone noticed?"
Alan walked around the groove, finally moving his gaze from the groove to several people.
"Originally, I had been staring at the box, just eating for a few seconds, and then when I looked up, the box was gone. ”
Sergei recounted what he had seen, and the look of horror on his face was a sign of how quickly things had happened, and even the elves' keen senses could not catch them. Both Stanny and Fresnel shook their heads, indicating that nothing unusual had been noticed, and that they were both eating, not only not paying attention to it, but also looking elsewhere.
"In such a short period of time, it is impossible for someone to come in and move the boxes away. Even if the box had wings on its own, it would not have escaped Sergei's eyes. ”
Alan raised the illuminated magic array and looked around, there was no trace of the box in the ice room, and the ice room was no different from before, the walls around it were intact, and they were the only way to enter and exit the ice room just now, so there was no possibility that the box would be moved.
How the hell did the crate disappear?
Several people were in a hurry, but they racked their brains and didn't understand how all this happened.
