408. Elven station
Grand Duke of Cross, one of the eight elven dukes, a powerhouse at the peak of the world's power.
The skill he is good at is the cross arrow, which adds energy to the arrow to form two layers of cross-shaped energy, which can effectively improve the penetration of the arrow, thereby increasing the speed and lethality of the arrow in the air. The cross arrow used by Lin Feng was of course the weakest cross arrow, and even the Snowman King could not hurt it. If you change to the Grand Duke of Cross to use the cross arrow, the power will be too powerful, even Zhang Fan may not be able to block it. Among all the eight dukes in the entire elven clan, the Grand Duke of Cross is undoubtedly the most aggressive, and at the same time the most violent one, otherwise it would be impossible for family members to do such a thing as a life-threatening assessment task.
Zhang Fan's chosen backer is this Grand Duke of the Cross, he believes that if he can really get in touch with the Grand Duke of the Cross, even if the Four Emperors want to take revenge on him, he has to carefully weigh whether this matter is worth it, after all, it is more or less not cost-effective to offend one of the eight Grand Dukes of the Elf Clan for the sake of a Bailly!
Of course, he didn't know that the four emperors were not prepared to deal with him at all, on the contrary, the emperor even decided to open a new apostle seat for him, increasing the number of apostles of the human race from twelve to thirteen for the first time.
In order to help Lin Feng do the task, Zhang Fan has been wandering in the wilderness, even if he is on the way back, he basically walks in the wilderness, the elves are good at field warfare, and it is not difficult to walk in the wild, plus Zhang Fan and Misaki, the two masters, and there is no danger, so they have not returned to the settlement of intelligent beings, and they have never known what happened to Zhang Fan that he himself does not know.
After walking like this for more than a month, Zhang Fan and his party finally crossed the continental ice shelf again, walked through the ruins of the City of Light, and then crossed the snow-capped mountains all the way to the territory of the elven clan.
Grand Duke of Cross, that is, the address of Lin Feng's family is next to the continental ice shelf, so the moment Zhang Fan and the others entered the elven territory, it was equivalent to returning to Lin Feng's hometown.
……
"This is the territory of the elves—there are so many trees—"
The trees here were even denser than the place where Lin Feng was doing the task, and Misaki, who had never seen so many trees, couldn't help but let out a sigh of amazement.
"Elves are called children of nature, all elves are born with the ability to perceive the state of plants, and a few elves can even talk to plants, so generally speaking, the elves live in the most trees. Moreover, the elves themselves are also suitable for jungle warfare, so such a dense jungle is also a good barrier for them! ”
Zhang Fan, who was walking beside Misaki, explained with a chuckle.
"Big brother, you know our elves very well, did you also have contact with the elves when you were in the continental plane?"
Lin Feng, who was leading the way in front, turned his head slightly, looked at Zhang Fan and asked.
"Well, it's been contacted, there have been a lot of misunderstandings, and there have been a few fights. But now it's no problem, we've long since let go of our old suspicions, and I've also become a foreign elder of the Continent Elf Clan! ”
Zhang Fan said with a smile, then pulled his collar open, revealing a leaf-like tattoo on his chest.
This was engraved by the tattoo master of the elven clan after he became a foreign elder, representing his status as an elven clan.
When Lin Feng saw the green leaf sign, he was immediately stunned, and then a sincere joy appeared on his face in the next second.
"Big brother, you are actually a foreign elder of the Mainland Elf Clan?!"
Seeing the sign on Zhang Fan's chest, Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
"What's wrong? Is this kind of thing rare? ”
"Of course!!"
Lin Feng screamed, "Big brother, you know, although the current elf race is much better than in ancient times, it is still a relatively conservative and closed race in general, and it doesn't have too much contact with other races. Although it varies from person to person, the atmosphere is generally not much different. Big brother, you can become a foreign elder of the elf race, you must have made a great contribution to the elf race, and you must be a hero who is grateful to the elf race of the entire continent, otherwise, it is impossible for you to become a foreign elder, big brother! Great, it's really great, so that big brother you are also half an elf, and others can't say anything when I'm with you! ”
The more Lin Feng spoke, the more excited he became, and in the end, he even secretly clenched his fists there and cheered.
He didn't notice Zhang Fan's embarrassed face on the other side.
[Contribution?] If killing people is also a contribution, then I really made a lot of contributions...... Hehe......]
With a low laugh in his heart, Zhang Fan decided not to tell the truth, so Lin Feng kept misunderstanding.
Misaki didn't speak on the side, and when she saw the completely different expressions of the two, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
……
Entering the territory of the elven clan, Lin Feng was like a fish back in the water, and his whole temperament changed drastically. is no longer the clumsiness of the past, but is full of agility between gestures. Sure enough, the title of the natural son of the elf clan is not given for nothing, as long as it is in the jungle, the combat power of the elf clan will increase significantly, and the mental state will become much more cheerful.
Following behind Lin Feng, Zhang Fan and Masaki slowly walked towards the interior of the jungle.
I've seen a lot of elves along the way, and although the elves aren't averse to people of other races entering the jungle now, they don't usually come here anyway. In addition, the territory of the Grand Duke of the Cross is too remote, even for humans, they have to cross the vast continental ice shelves, so basically only people from the elves will come here, and occasionally one or two people who come are also some merchants, and the dress is as simple and practical as possible. Thinking that Zhang Fan and them pay more attention to beauty and appearance, the elves here have really never seen much.
So when they saw Zhang Fan and Misaki, all the elves passing by, whether they were wandering around or in a hurry, all stopped and looked at Zhang Fan and the two with the eyes of the new animals in the zoo.
But Zhang Fan and Misaki are not the kind of people who are petty, just look at it, and a piece of meat is indispensable, isn't it?
So, although Zhang Fan and the two acted as ornaments along the way, the two parties did not have any unhappiness, on the contrary, they were quite happy, others looked at themselves to show that they were charming, when people didn't even bother to look at it, then they really became passers-by.
The three of them continued to advance in the forest, and finally entered a city on the third day after entering the forest, the name of the city or something, Zhang Fan didn't ask carefully, but from the strange eyes of the elf guards at the city gate looking at Lin Feng, Zhang Fan could conclude that this was Lin Feng's family, the city of the Lin family, the Grand Duke of the Cross.
Entering the city, it is different from the elven royal court on the continent plane, and the buildings here are all made of trees, and the more advanced ones are directly hollow tree trunks, and people can live in them. A little less so, wooden houses were built at the end of the trees as places of rest and residence. Whether it is high-level or low-level, in short, these various plants and various buildings, coupled with the butterflies constantly fluttering around, the elven city is still as beautiful as ever.
And after entering the city, Lin Feng's whole person changed again.
When Zhang Fan first met him, he was a young man who was generally cheerful, but his actions and behavior were slightly clumsy; In the ordinary jungle, he is as vigorous as an ape, and his whole person is full of vitality and vitality; And in this city that is also a jungle, Lin Feng's body is full of twilight, the breath of the whole person is very low, and his body is slightly rickety, as if there are thousands of catties of heavy objects in the air of this city, which just crush his body down.
For Lin Feng's change, Zhang Fan didn't understand the specific reason, and he didn't want to ask, everyone had secrets they didn't want to say, and he didn't feel that his relationship with Lin Feng was good enough to exchange privacy. And taking a step back, what if you ask? If Lin Feng didn't want to say it, he would ask in vain, it would be better to take the initiative to say it when he wanted to say it.
However, Zhang Fan did not wait for that time, because less than five minutes after entering the city, they heard in front of a huge tree. And in front of the huge wooden door on the trunk of the tree, a handsome male elf explained the real reason why Lin Feng would make such a gesture with practical actions.
"Yo! Isn't this our Lin Fenglin Dashao? What's wrong? Your old man's mission accomplished? Or is your old man not ready to complete the task at all, and is already ready to be assigned to a second-rate city? ”
The handsome male elf was slender, half a head taller than Lin Feng who was standing straight, and now Lin Feng bent down slightly, and he seemed to be even more low. And what the handsome male elf showed at this time was also a condescending posture.
Listening to the male elf's words, Lin Feng's body trembled slightly, and he was silent.
"That's right! Isn't your lowly mother sent out? That's right, if you can't complete your task, you will be sent out anyway, so I just beg my father to send you to that city, so that your lowly mother and son can also be reunited, why not? ”
The handsome male elf would not let him go because Lin Feng didn't speak, he just listened to his words and actually talked about Lin Feng's mother. And the language is very disrespectful, and even uses words like "lowly" and "lowly".
Zhang Fan understood everything in a flash, it seems that this Lin Feng should be the illegitimate son of the Grand Duke of the Cross, his mother is either a commoner or a maid, and she was lucky enough to be favored by the Grand Duke of the Cross and gave birth to a son by luck. But the Lin family is a big family after all, and it is not so easy for a mother to rely on her son. Even if that woman gave birth to the flesh and blood of the Lin family, the ending would not be better, the family would definitely not be able to stay, and would definitely be sent away, but this Lin Feng was kept because he had the blood of the Grand Duke of the Cross, but his status was not high, and he was afraid that ordinary housekeepers and other existences could bully him casually.
Originally, Zhang Fan was still puzzled, this Lin Feng was the heir of the Grand Duke of the Cross, didn't he even have a hidden guard when he went out on a mission?
Looking at it now, it is estimated that there is really none, even if there is, I am afraid that it will have already been under the command of others, and it is impossible for someone to be loyal to him as a marginal person like Lin Feng, who has no power, no power and no status.
Zhang Fan's heart suddenly felt a little sympathetic to this Lin Feng for some reason, the evil fate made by the previous generation, but the suffering made him, a junior who couldn't even choose to be born, bear it, God is really unfair enough.
