Chapter 580 (9) Strategic Transfer (4000 words)

Qiao Xiu still underestimated this ice dragon... Flight speed that does not conform to the normal speed of a creature.

From Nolan to the Frost Country, and then to the Deep Green Basin on the border of the Frost Country, this ice dragon completed a journey that would take ordinary people half a year to complete in just three days.

"I give a five-star review for this Didi dragon car."

When Catalian landed on the outskirts of the Deep Green Basin, Josiu gave the trip a proper evaluation.

"I've heard enough of your strange words."

Catalian shook his back and motioned for Josiu and Ciri to get off its back.

Josiu jumped off Catarian's dragon and landed steadily on the meadows of the basin.

With the physical fitness of the Chaos Demon, Qiao Xiu was able to easily jump off the back of a dragon that was nearly four stories high.

Ciri is a more common application for spellcasters who use the order system, which is to build a temporary staircase with a magic barrier, and then step by step down the dragon's back.

"What about the city of elves?"

As soon as Ciri landed on the ground, he glanced left and right, and then raised his head to look at the sky.

Because of the arrival of the ice dragon Catalian, all the demonic beasts inhabiting this basin have disappeared, and the silence around is terrifying.

There was nothing floating in the sky, and when Ciri sat on the ice dragon, he was still excited to find the legendary city.

But you can't see anything even above the clouds.

"There might be some kind of invisibility magic."

Qiao Xiu took out the token of the World Tree, which had already reacted after entering the Dark Green Basin.

"I forgot how to use it." Qiao Xiu handed the token to Ciri, "Ciri, you try to enter the magic power into it first." ”

Ciri took the token and entered his magic into it as Josiu had said.

The light on this token was a little brighter, and Qiao Xiu also put his hand against it, carefully inputting the magic power of the Chaos Demon into it.

A pure white beam of light appeared on Qiao Xiu's side.

"This thing is... Portals? ”

Ciri found a stone on the ground and threw it into the beam, which disappeared into the pillar of light in an instant.

'The lead beam doesn't last long. ’

Suddenly, a translucent white bird appeared on Ciri's shoulder, and this white bird was the consciousness of the High Elf World Tree.

It tilted its head to look at Catalian behind Ciri.

"Ma'am, please?" Qiao Xiu made a gesture of please.

"Space teleportation, hmm... Sure enough, I still couldn't get used to the magic. ”

But Ciri was a little afraid of the pillar of light.

This spellcaster is a woman who can fight bears with her bare hands, but several consecutive 'spatial teleportations' during the Demon Realm have left a psychological shadow on Ciri.

"Okay, hold my hand."

Qiao Xiu took Ciri's somewhat cold hand and walked into the pillar of light with Ciri.

A sense of weightlessness swept over Qiao Xiu, and after just three seconds, Qiao Xiu opened his eyes again, and the scenery in front of him changed from a swamp to... A city that has been reduced to ruins.

"This is Arthur Crowe?"

Qiao Xiu looked around, the style of the surrounding buildings Qiao Xiu looked a little familiar, but these buildings had become decaying ruins, and even the ground was full of dust, not like someone living in it at all.

It's a long-dead street, and all that remains here is its ruins.

Qiao Xiu raised his head, and there was a huge dome above him, and the sunlight shone into it through the cracks in the dome, as if to tell Qiao Xiu that this place was not far from the ground.

"Athercro, isn't this the underground ruins of Nolan?"

Ciri looked around, and the architecture was almost identical to the ruins of the Norland Underground.

"And what about the people who welcomed us?"

Qiao Xiu didn't even see a wild High Elf, but he felt a powerful magical barrier outside the street.

Just as Josiu was looking for a welcomer, Ciri, who possessed the beastly instinct, suddenly sensed something.

"Who?"

Ciri raised his staff high, the light of the phantom inscription surrounded the staff, and the next second the ruins were illuminated by strong light, and the dark figure hiding in the corner of the ruins slowly walked out.

"It looks like you're not the one to welcome." Qiao Xiu looked at the person in front of him, the robe on his body was very similar to the style of Nolan's spellcaster, but he couldn't see his appearance clearly with a mask on his face, but the emblem on the shoulder of the robe revealed his identity.

The emblem of the robes of the Seven Sages of Nolan.

Qiao Xiu had heard that there were only five sages in Nolan at the moment, and the ones in black and blue had not appeared in the Council of Sages for a long time.

Whether he was the One in Black or not had nothing to do with Qiao Xiu, Qiao Xiu just wanted to know where the High Elves lived.

"Humans from Nolan? And one... Blasphemers, why are you here! ”

His gaze under the mask glanced at Qiao Xiu and Ciri, and finally his gaze stayed on Qiao Xiu's body, and his pupils contracted slightly.

"What's the strange name of a blasphemer? My name is Josieu Arnorod, and I am a guest invited by the consciousness of the World Tree. Qiao Xiu introduced himself.

"The Sacred Tree Cannot Accept a ......"

Before he finished speaking, a white bird stopped on Qiao Xiu's shoulder, and at this moment he instantly closed his mouth, looking at Qiao Xiu's eyes as if he had seen a ghost.

"Are you a local? If so, can you take me to the High Elf Gathering Place? I have something to talk to them about. ”

Qiao Xiu tentatively communicated with the man in black, this time Qiao Xiu came purely for the air mobile IFI, of course, to create a few more High Elf idols, Qiao Xiu is quite willing.

"The place where you are is the Forgotten Lands means that you have been rejected by the Council of Elders." He said.

"Refuse?" If Qiao Xiu remembers correctly, he should be a guest of the World Tree.

He answered Qiao Xiu's question in a more intuitive way, and the silver inscription appeared in his hand, and a reflected image appeared in front of Qiao Xiu's eyes.

"The Council of Elders will not allow the blasphemers to set foot in the city again, probably because you are sheltered by the sacred tree, so they did not choose to kill you." The image he summoned was in the forest outside the ruins.

Qiao Xiu could see a group of high elves waiting outside, and judging from the equipment on their bodies, it didn't look like they had come to greet Qiao Xiu's guest.

"We... Seems to have become the boss of the dungeon? Ciri whispered to Joshua.

"It seems that I was completely treated as an enemy, I thought that all elves were a group of cat slaves..."Qiao Xiu didn't expect that he had the protection of the holy tree, and these high elves didn't give Qiao Xiu face at all.

"There's a bird standing on your shoulder." Ciri reminded Johew again.

“……”

"To the High Elves, the Sacred Tree is just our symbiote."

The man in black glanced at the white bird standing on Qiao Xiu's shoulder, and bowed slightly to it with a strange etiquette.

"I don't know why the Sacred Tree invited you to Arthurcro, but please leave the city as soon as possible, some of the elders will mercilessly execute any blasphemer." The man in black persuaded Qiao Xiu.

"Go back? You mean I was released by the High Elves? Or was it pointed at by a flock of pigeons with a bow? ”

Qiao Xiu didn't expect the attitude of this group of elves to be so bad.

The man in black ignored Qiao Xiu's words, and he went straight to the middle of the street, in front of an altar-like building, and he reached out to brush the dust from one of the discs.

"This is the teleportation circle built by your blasphemers, and with your magic you should be able to build a portal to Nolan." He said.

"As much as I would love to get out of this dusty place as soon as possible, my answer is that I say no."

"If you force your way outside the Forgotten Lands, the Council of Elders won't let you go." The man in black warned Qiao Xiu loudly.

"Is this your hospitality? If it is opposed to hostility... I'd be happy to lead an army to draw Arthurcro into the war. Qiao Xiu said with a smile on his face.

"What did you say?"

This sentence obviously stimulated the man in black, he clenched his staff, and silver inscriptions appeared around his body, but in the next moment, gray magic suddenly swept over the area.

His inscription shattered like glass, and even he himself held the staff in both hands as if he had some difficulty breathing.

"After so many years... You guys are still so dangerous. ”

"I don't know much about the grievances between the High Elves and our clan, but this time I was invited by your sacred tree, so if you don't bring some tea and entertain you, you still want to release the pigeons."

Qiao Xiu had chaotic magic in his hand and walked slowly towards him, and after passing him, he injected his magic into the teleportation array.

This teleportation array, which had been abandoned for an unknown number of years, was activated again.

"You mean this place can be connected to Nolan?"

Qiao Xiu felt that this man in black was very... Not vigilant, or nice-hearted?

If there was such a teleportation array in his home, Qiao Xiu would not tell anyone if he was killed.

He didn't answer Qiao Xiu, Qiao Xiu used the inscription of the Bone Gong to summon an unconscious undead, this undead walked into the teleportation array, and the next second it walked out of the teleportation array again.

After the undead shattered into pieces, what little memory it had poured into Qiao Xiu's memory.

Surrounded by three stunned dwarves, Qiao Xiu also saw the frost axe among these three dwarves.

Was it a teleportation array to the Frostaxe family?

Qiao Xiu instantly closed the teleportation array... Lost in thought.

"What the hell do you want to do?" The man in black seemed to be a little impatient, and he asked Qiao Xiu in a low voice.

"You can't treat each other politely, you can only intersect with swords, in short, that's what it means... To reintroduce again, I'm Joshua Arnorod, the third prince of the Demon Realm. ”

Qiao Xiu's pitch-black pupils stared closely at the blue eyes under the mask of the man in black, and the domineering aura borrowed from the Skeleton Gong spread wantonly.

"Maybe I should lead an army here, so the High Elves might be able to sit down and talk to me."

When Qiao Xiu made this proposal, the man in black had a dangerous look in his eyes.

"I'll stop you." He said.

When Qiao Xiu was about to answer him, the white bird standing on Qiao Xiu's shoulder also knocked Qiao Xiu's head with its beak.

"It hurts......" Before Qiao Xiu could scare it, the white bird knocked Qiao Xiu's head again with its beak.

"Okay, okay, I'm just talking, I really don't know anything about leading troops to fight." Qiao Xiu covered the place where the white bird was hitting, indicating that he was just joking.

"What?"

Ciri, on the contrary, showed a surprised expression, and it seemed that the girl was ready for war.

"If you really want to break in, at most you can force your way into the core of the World Tree, but it's unlikely to 'sneak in' depending on the situation outside."

Qiao Xiu didn't think that if he relied on hard breaking, he could make this sacred tree happy.

"I'll give you a hint that your Chaos magic isn't useful to the Elders." The man in black warned Qiao Xiu again.

He looked like he wanted to avoid the battle as hard as he could, but what Qiao Xiu said and what he did before was too dangerous.

"Can't you forbid them to cast spells? It's a bit tricky. ”

Qiao Xiu also fell into deep thought.

"Why don't you just camp here for a while? Anyway, you can use the portal to go back to Nolan. Healy suggested.

"Stay for a while?"

Qiao Xiu glanced sideways at the portal to Nolan, and then looked back at the street that had been reduced to ruins.

"Ciri come with me."

Qiao Xiu walked briskly towards a building on the street, Ciri followed behind Qiao Xiu, and the man in black also followed.

The walls of these buildings are already covered with various plants, but the interior of the buildings is surprisingly well preserved, except that dust has accumulated in some places.

"After so many years, there is no sign of collapse, and the quality of these buildings is quite good." Qiao Xiu stretched out his hand and scratched the dust on an unknown long table.

The people living on this street walked in a hurry, and many things were not taken with them, but they all seemed to have evacuated safely, and Qiao Xiu checked several buildings in a row, but did not find anyone's bones inside.

"What are you planning?" The man in black watched Qiao Xiu walk around like a tourist adventure, and finally couldn't help but ask out loud again.

"Are you really the sage of Nolan? It's been a long time since I've seen you so... Straightforward people, no, there is a High Elf named Al who is very similar to you. Qiao Xiu said suddenly.

"Straightforward? As you humans, I am Nolan's Black-Cloaked. He said.

"It's really the man in black who has been missing for three years." Qiao Xiu was slightly startled, then turned around and suddenly stretched out his hand.

He took a step back vigilantly in an instant, his magic was still in a state of being imprisoned by Qiao Xiu.

"I'm quite familiar with the other sages, and I'm really sorry to scare you just now." Qiao Xiu said.

But he didn't accept Qiao Xiu's apology, and continued to follow Qiao Xiu without saying a word.

Finally, after Qiao Xiu had finished shopping through all the abandoned buildings on the entire street, he spoke again.

"If you're hoping to find anything useful in the Forgotten Lands, give up, all that's left is ruins."

"I'm not looking for relics, I'm looking at the storefront." Qiao Xiu gestured at the largest building in front of him and said.

"Storefront?!"

"Let me introduce you, my identity in Nolan is the owner of a tavern, and I plan to open a branch here." A smile that made him chill appeared on Qiao Xiu's face at this moment.
