Chapter 309: Verdas Forest (1)
With a knife throw, Zhou Dong had already foreseen the result and strode forward. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
With a thud, the assassin with a scimitar in his chest collapsed, his heart was failing, and in the blink of an eye, his body became weak, and he fell off his horse.
His wide-eyed eyes were still unconvinced, and his face was congealed with joy, until Zhou Dong came to his side, he still had his last breath and turned his head, staring at him with a gaze full of resentment.
Burst!
Zhou Dong indifferently pulled out the scimitar, then wiped it on the other party's clothes a few times, wiped off the bloodstains, and retracted his waist unhurriedly.
"Not only am I willing to let you go, but I also gave you a horse, but it's a pity that your strength is too weak."
Zhou Dong kept his promise, and from the beginning he was willing to let them go, the first assassin to go, the jade dragon Haas was watching by his side, and the second assassin to go, died.
This is a typical abyssal devil who plays with words and language contracts, promising to let them go, but not promising not to kill them, nor promising not to follow them.
"Eric, is Jane alright?" Calder walked over and asked worriedly.
"It's okay, it's just unconscious, let's get out of here first...... Go to the Forest of Verdas first. Zhou Dong said suddenly.
"Why where to go?" Leah frowned.
"Is there any reason why you can't go?" Zhou Dong glanced at Liya more.
"No...... Forget it, just go if you want to. Leah thought about it for a moment, but still didn't say anything.
Zhou Dong was not blind, and he could see that the elf sister and brother obviously had some secrets that they didn't want to show to others, so he didn't inquire, picked Jane on his horse, turned around and ran towards the Wildas Forest.
The Forest of Verdas is located to the right of the Trade Highway, while Moss City is located on the left side of the Gulf of Fire of the Trade Highway, which also passes through the Vortex Mountains in the middle and then branches off near Fort Tether, one leading to the port of Carlin in the Kingdom of Kalinshan and one to the interior of Feren.
Now Moss Stone City is looking for them, and at the same time, some of the organizational forces involved in that crackdown on bandits have also sent killers, no matter what, Zhou Dong will not be stupid enough to throw himself into the net, but he will not continue to rush to Deep Water City.
Before solving the problem of chasing soldiers behind the buttocks, Zhou Dong estimated that he would have to stay in the Tesel area for a while.
……
During the day, however, no sunlight seeped in the basement, only the bright yellow candlelight that cast flickering shadows on the walls.
Dozens of cloaked people were silently doing their own things in several rooms in the basement, and they didn't feel like they were alive.
Babble.
The door to the entrance staircase was cracked, then quickly shut, and a figure hurried down, his heavy gasps could be heard from afar.
The owner of this basement was also wrapped in a large black robe, with a light source on his back, and only the eyes were burning with a faint blue flame.
"Is the mission accomplished?" The black-robed man spoke, his voice as rough as two stones rubbing against each other.
"Hey, sorry, we failed because ...... Yes! No! ”
Before the Assassin could finish his sentence, he found that his clothes were burning with blue flames, which would not be extinguished no matter how much he swatted, and in just a dozen seconds, he burned a large living person into a skeleton.
"Nine, move the materials to the material warehouse, thirteen and four, come here."
"Yes, my master."
Near the black-robed man, a black-robed man who was operating on the alchemy platform walked over, and like the black-robed man, he couldn't see clearly, only two blue flames burned in the shadow of the hood of his head.
The black-robed man did not give an order immediately, but stretched out his "hand" first.
This hand, not a human hand, but a bird-like claw, has not yet the slightest flesh on it, but only dark bones, about twice the size of the human palm bone.
The hand grabbed in the air, and a howling gray-white ghost condensed from its place, looking like an assassin who had just been burned to death by the blue flames.
The black-robed man muttered a spell, and the screams of the Assassin's Shadow quickly subsided, revealing a changing scene in the air, which was his memory.
After reading it, it was ten minutes later.
The black-robed man was silent for a few minutes before twisting his neck, looking at the disciples standing beside him, and said, "Four, you bring a shadow team and bring the group of people from the Spiral Star over...... Thirteenth, you also take a shadow team to bring these adventurers back, and by the way, go to the Assassin Guild to recover the commission. ”
"Yes, my master."
"Yes, my master."
They scattered separately, and at this time, they realized that when they moved, the floor did not leave any footprints, as if it was just a fluttering cloud of light and shadow.
……
It was dark all around, cold on the body, and confused and chaotic.
I don't know how long this state lasted, Jane kept feeling a warmth falling from her body, as if the early spring sun was gently and slowly melting the ice left by winter.
She slowly opened her eyes, the light became blind, and she tried to cover them with her hands, but her weak body made her movement much slower than usual.
Myself...... By the way, I was knocked unconscious by those assassins.
Jane's messy mind flashed memories of her pre-coma as she looked around to gather information.
This is a room, the furniture is mostly delicate wood, the design style is beautiful and elegant, she looked out the window, a little surprised that she was in a rather high position, looking at the past, surrounded by big trees.
Is this the elf's treehouse?
Jane had also heard a lot of stories, and such thoughts subconsciously appeared in her mind at this time.
With a babbling sound, the door opened.
The door opened, and in came a female elf with slightly blue skin, who watched the person she had been caring for for for a few days wake up, and her face also showed surprise first, then curiosity.
"How are you feeling?"
"It's fine, just a little weak...... Where is this? Who are you? What about my companions? ”
"Rest assured, it's safe here, you're a guest, I'll go inform Princess Lia and your companion now."
The female elf smiled slightly, quite beautiful in Jane's opinion, she watched the other party leave, touched the freckles on her face, and couldn't help but feel a little inferior, she is considered to be average in appearance among human women, but compared with the talented and beautiful elf family, there is a huge gap.
At the same time, Jane noticed the last sentence of the female elf, and was surprised in her heart, completely unaware that Leah, who had been with her for a few days, was still an elf princess?
This is indeed a bit strange for Jane, after all, in her opinion, the status of a princess is quite noble, how can she be a very uncoordinated adventurer.
