Chapter 220: A Harbinger of Disaster
Blackwood Forest.
Ever since the Darkwood Elves, known as the 'Chanters', have completely regarded Caroli as a poor girl whose family is ruined, and even their closest support, the demon slayer Leon, who was killed by the hateful human enforcers.
No matter how much Caroli explained it to them, they still took care of Caroli with a motherly attitude.
This should also be regarded as the influence brought by the movie?
Caroli sat up from her rattan bed and peered through the window, where she was living in a wooden hut on the outskirts of the elven quarters.
It's a quiet and peaceful forest, and the elves are very kind to her, but Caroli is still not used to life in the Darkwood Forest.
Or rather... It's uneasy.
When Mrs. Nishizawa finally sent her away, the solemn expression on her face made Caroli not sleep well at all.
Could something happen at home?
Staying in the Blackwood Forest, Caroli was unable to contact her mother.
Feeling uneasy in her heart, she took out the pendant around her neck, which contained the leaves of the World Tree, the IFI device that Caroli carried with her.
During her time alone in the Blackwood Forest, the only thing that gave Caroli some comfort was the Spellcaster Forum, and the fans at the camp.
While visiting the 'camp' of the Spellcaster Forum, she found an interesting piece of news.
This news comes from the camp of the 'White Thorn Flower Theater', which is a newly opened camp by Qiao Xiu, and will post some movie reviews and movie-related news.
Although the number of people in this camp is not as large as that of Carolie and Belle, there are still many users who like movies.
Caroli is also one of the followers, and two hours ago the camp at the White Vitex Theater released a brand new message.
A new film is in the works. ’
This short message was enough to pique Caroli's curiosity and make her enter a state of impatience.
After Caroli left Nolan, she was always thinking about her second time in the filming.
Preparations for a new movie have already begun, but she is far away in Falosi, and it will take a week to get back to Nolan even in the legendary Griffon.
'Mr. Qiao Xiu, can... Can you tell me a little bit about the new movie? ’
Even if Caroli can't participate in the filming of the new movie, her curiosity leads her to ask Qiao Xiu in the form of a text message.
'A film about the relationship between humans and animals, and unfortunately there is no suitable character for you, Miss Caroli. ’
Qiao Xiu replied quickly, and there were very few people who could contact Qiao Xiu by text message on the magic network, and Jia Luoli was one of them.
Feelings between humans and animals?
As Caroli read this, the vines that had sealed the doorway to her room shrank to the side, and a large brown bear crouched in the doorway.
This brown bear is the companion of the Elven Grand Elder Sephaun and is named 'Ett'...... Every time Caroli came to the Blackwood Forest, she sat on the back of this brown bear and entered the interior of the forest.
And... Sleeping on the brown bear's fur was very comfortable, more comfortable than the bed in Caroli's own room.
"Miss, it's noon now......"
Caroli's elven guard, Frey, walked into her room, and in the brown bear's mouth was a wooden basket made of vines, which he lowered to the ground, and there were some particularly tasty-looking fruits piled up inside.
"Who let my mother kick me out of my room last night."
Caroli walked out of this particular wooden house, and when the brown bear lowered its head, she reached out and stroked the brown bear's neck, and the brown bear purred in its throat, which seemed to be very comfortable.
"Like a cat."
It was at this time that Caroli became very interested in what Joshew called a 'film of the relationship between humans and animals'.
She was about to open the magic net and ask Qiao Xiu if he could tell her the specifics of the script, when Ett, the brown bear, who had always been particularly docile, seemed to sense something, and he raised his head to look at the other part of the forest, showing his fangs.
"Frey, what's wrong with it?" Caroli instantly withdrew her hand, and the brown bear turned around and immediately ran towards the other side of the forest.
"That direction is Thorn Square...... Elves patrolling the forest will take injured humans there if they spot them. Frey said.
After the Darkwood Elves have made a pact with Caroli's father, Duke Kuroki, they will guide some humans who have strayed into the forest to help.
Recently, however, due to the illness of the Brass Dragon, the guardian of the World Tree, the Blackwood Forest no longer welcomes any humans inside, let alone takes them to the depths of the Darkwood Forest.
"Frey, take me to see it."
Caroli had a bad feeling since she came to the forest, and Frey hesitated for a moment, but accepted Caroli's order.
Led by her elven guards, Caroli soon found herself in a clearing occupied by unknown flowers and meadows.
There had been a number of elves gathered here, and when Caroli arrived, Brown Bear Etter stood around the clearing and let out an uneasy roar.
Caroli noticed a human lying in the middle of the clearing, his body was so badly injured that he was almost covered in scarlet blood, probably unconscious from blood loss.
Two young elven priests were healing the human.
"You shouldn't have brought him back!"
"But Elder Morav, if we leave it alone, he... I won't live long......"
An elderly elven elder reprimanded the three young elves, and Caroli didn't pay attention to the conversation between them, her attention was all on the human.
The pendant hanging from Caroli's chest suddenly emitted a pale green light, and at that moment, one of the three young elves suddenly pulled out a short blade at his side and stabbed at the elven elder in front of him.
It all happened so fast that almost in the blink of an eye, the garden was stained with blood that had fallen.
The other two Darkwood Elves reacted instantly, trying to stop the out-of-control 'Elf', but it was too late, and the badly injured human who fell to the ground swelled up as if inflated.
Before Caroli could see what was happening, her eyes were covered by Frey.
"Etter! Hurry up and get the eldest lady out of here! ”
Frey shouted loudly to the brown bear beside her, and the brown bear lay down humanely, allowing Caroli to sit on its back.
"Frey... It happened... What..."Caroli gripped the brown bear's hair, unable to see around at all in such a bumpy situation.
"There was just a little bit of an accident."
She glanced at the clearing in front of her, it was already stained with blood and internal organs, and all the elves who approached fell unconscious, except for the 'elf' who had drawn the dagger.
Frey endured the grief and anger of losing her compatriot and patted Etter the brown bear on the back.
"Ette takes the eldest lady to the inside of the World Tree! Fast! ”
The brown bear roared, and before Caroli could continue to ask about his elven guard, Brown Bear Etter led Caroli to the depths of the Blackwood Forest, leaving Frei standing alone.
Frey stared at the only surviving 'elf' in the clearing, and her mind inexplicably flashed the figure of the last descendant of the frost elves, Tyrene.
Gray... Mist? Frey's eyes widened, and she saw a gray mist creeping up in the forest in the distance.
