Chapter 182: The Core of the Wind Sword
A negotiation ended in a very pleasant way, Haoren accepted all the requirements of the Elven Wolf King, and his cooperative attitude made the Elven Wolf King suspicious, and couldn't help but whisper: "If you can successfully lift the curse of our clan, I will definitely give you a rich reward!" ”
"Can I advance in advance?"
"Advances? What do you mean? The elven wolf didn't seem to understand the meaning of the word.
"Well, I didn't say it, but first you have to help me get out of this forest, and hopefully provide me with some dry food and water." Haoren demanded.
"I'll let the clansmen take you out, this forest is called the Forbidden Forest, since the invasion of darkness, this place has become a forbidden place, and there is a psychedelic array on the periphery, and outsiders can't enter it at all."
"That's why you figured out I'm from another dimension?"
"Yes, and because I was once an elven high priest, I can sense the spatial fluctuations that spread when you arrived, but this fluctuation is different from the Dark Gate, so I can tell that at least you are not a dark creature." The elven wolf replied truthfully.
"Dark Door!" Haoren frowned, according to his estimate, this place should belong to the Fourth Age of Magic, and that ancient era should have been destroyed by dark creatures.
"I would venture to ask, did you just say that since the invasion of darkness, the creatures of darkness still exist in this world?"
The elven wolf shook his head: "Although there is a gap in history, the dark creatures have indeed disappeared, although the reason for their disappearance is still unknown. ”
Haoren was finally a little moved, or even more confused, what kind of place is this, it looks like the earth civilization of the Fourth Age of Magic, but this civilization should have been destroyed in the hands of dark creatures.
With countless questions, Haoren, under the leadership of the elven wolf clan, finally walked out of this vast forbidden forest before dawn came.
At the entrance of the forest, there is a large lake, the water of the lake is unusually clear, the morning sun is reflected on it, sparkling waves, and there is a shallow layer of mist floating on the surface of the lake, looming, the early morning air. Very fresh, with the natural aroma of flowers and plants, it is refreshing, and the scenery is simply unforgettable.
"Crossing this Tianxin Lake is the territory of the elf clan, I can't continue to move forward, and the road after that will be handed over to you, I hope not to live up to my king's entrustment!" After a burst of words from the spirit of the elf wolf, he turned back and quickly disappeared into the dense forest.
Haoren stood by the lake and watched it reluctantly for a long time, and couldn't help scooping up a few handfuls of water and tasting it, the lake water was cool and sweet, and the moment it entered the abdomen, a cool breath spread throughout the body, which was refreshing.
Sitting on the back of the elf wolf all night last night, Haoren almost didn't close his eyes, he should have been very tired at this time, but after drinking the lake water, his whole body felt an abnormal comfort, and all the tiredness disappeared in that cool air.
"What a magical lake! You can even recover your strength! Haoren was surprised and delighted, and immediately wanted to bring more back to the real world, although the energy potion refined by the alchemists can also achieve the effect of restoring physical strength, but this thing is the same as the stimulant, it itself has great side effects, the effect of the potion will increase exponentially once it is tired, and long-term use will gradually reduce the basic caste.
But this lake water has no side effects, this is a natural energy recovery prop! It's just that Haoren searched all over his body, but only found two empty mineral water bottles, and there were no other containers. Haoren smiled slightly bitterly, filled all the mineral water bottles, and then left.
The water of Tianxin Lake: The water that gathers the essence of nature, accumulates for hundreds of years, and can quickly eliminate tiredness and restore energy after drinking, without any side effects.
After Tianxin Lake, there is still a lush jungle ahead, but it is different from the previous forest, there is more vitality here, and there is less gloomy atmosphere, and the number of demonic beasts has also decreased significantly, and occasionally a few appear without any attack surname.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
A few feather arrows were shot out in the jungle not far away, Haoren instinctively retreated half a minute, the feather arrows almost touched his cheeks and stuck to the ground, the fierce wind stimulated his eyelids to jump, and the shaft of the arrow exposed on the ground remained unsubsidy, making a palpitating buzzing sound.
What a strong force, such a fierce arrow!
Haoren immediately drew the sword of sanctions, and the innate sense of coercion brought by the gold-level weapon made the sneak attackers not far away dare not act rashly for a while.
Haoren was not in a hurry to fight back, although he quickly found the location where the two sneak attackers were hiding, but let go of his voice and shouted, "Could it be that the elves treat guests from afar like this? ”
"Humans are the enemies of the elves!"
"Never die!"
The voices of a man and a woman sounded at the same time, and there was a very obvious hostility and hatred in their tones, Haoren was slightly stunned, this is inconsistent with the information provided by the Elf Wolf King, it doesn't mean that in order to resist the invasion of dark creatures, an alliance of hundred races was established, and humans and elves should be allies.
Could it be that the elf wolf king is cheating himself?
Haoren's heart couldn't help but sink, but the reason why he easily agreed was because he really wanted to find the location of the Elven Spring.
"Get out of our forest!"
"Do not defile our holy places!"
Accompanied by two feather arrows, both in terms of the angle and strength of the arrows, they were very exquisitely grasped, even more amazing than Qin Yang, and the arrows were also glowing with green poisonous light.
However, this time Haoren had already prepared, raised the sword of sanction slightly, clanked twice, and the two arrows were cut in two on the spot, and the sneak attacker hiding in the distance let out a low soft cry: "Impossible!" This is an arrow made from a century-old branch! ”
Haoren was also helpless, he didn't know anything about the history of the Fourth Magic Civilization, but judging from the other party's tone, the elves seemed to hate humans, which undoubtedly increased the difficulty for him to take the Elven Fountain to forge the Sword of the Wind Chaser.
Haoren's heart moved, and just before the next wave of attacks was coming, he hurriedly changed his words: "If your hostility stems from my human identity, then I'm afraid you are mistaken, I am also a member of the elven race, and this human appearance is just my disguise." ”
"No kidding, this kind of inferior dazzle can't hide it from me!"
A smile crossed Haoren's face: "Then I'll verify it!" As he spoke, he quietly took out the Variety Badge from the spatial package and wore it on his chest, which was something obtained in the previous prop lottery, which was useless in the real world, and now it actually came in handy.
Variety-Badge Quality: Silver Effect: Activates the Transformation Effect, which temporarily transforms you into any race in the Fourth Civilization for two hours and has a cooldown for 24 hours.
"Activate the transformation effect and transform into an elf!"
Surrounded by a strange green light, Haoren's face gradually changed, his face became fairer, his ears became pointed and long, and his skin was unusually smooth and soft like clotted cream.
"It's incredible!" Haoren stroked his skin and ears, amazed in his heart, pretended to be innocent on his face, and said loudly: "Now you should understand, we are all the same race, there is no need to fight anymore!" ”
"Brother, this person is really from our elf clan!" A woman's voice rang out at the right time, and then I saw a girl in a light green short skirt jumping down from an ancient tree not far away, and running towards Haoren with joy.
"Sister! Wait a minute! ”
Followed by a burly male elf, he took the first step in front of the girl, looked at Haoren vigilantly, frowned and looked at the good-looking brows, observed intently for a long time, and hesitated: "Humans are very cunning, don't be easily fooled." ”
"If it's a skill like camouflage, it's impossible to hide it from us, but the eyes of our elves have a strong ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood." My sister said proudly.
"In short, don't be careless." The male elf still didn't dare to relax.
"Don't be nervous, I don't mean anything, I just want to see the great Wind Chaser." Haoren said with a smile on his face.
"You want to see Lord Wind Chaser!" The two elves were stunned, looked at each other a few times, and the male elf Huo Ran took out the short knife on his waist, pointed at Haoren's forehead, and asked in a deep voice: "Stranger, even if you are really our elf clan, Lord Wind Chaser is not something you can see casually, show your origin!" ”
Haoren ignored the cold light on his forehead, this level of weapon could not cause much damage to him, and said calmly: "My origin is also not something you can know casually, so take me to meet Lord Wind Chaser." ”
"Presumptuous!" The short knife in the male elf's hand shook slightly, and the female elf hurriedly held down his arm, shaking her head desperately to signal him not to be impulsive.
"If you don't have a reasonable request, we really can't take you back!" The female elf had an apologetic look on her delicate face: "Since breaking with humans, our race has been very cautious of outsiders. ”
Haoren pondered for a moment, and with a wave of his backhand, there was already an extra bead in his hand that shimmered with a faint golden light, which was the Wind Chaser Soul Crystal that had been complete.
"Wind Sword Core!"
"Oh my God! Wasn't this artifact destroyed in the Dark War, how could it be in your hands, and it looks like it should be in its entirety, not a wreckage! ”
"You, who the hell are you!"
The core of the Wind Sword.
Well, Hao Ren at least knew the true name of this golden item in the ancient period, and his face was immediately filled with an unfathomable smile, and he said lightly: "I don't need you to know my origin, I just ask one point, with only this wind sword core, am I qualified to meet Lord Wind Chaser?" ”
The male elf still had a deep vigilance on his face, but he no longer hesitated, even if there was a few people with ulterior motives in front of him, but the significance of the core of the wind sword was very significant, and it was definitely not that he was an ordinary elf who could make a decision.
"Okay, then you can go back with us first."
The male elf finally agreed, took a deep look at the core of the golden wind sword, and strode into the depths of the jungle, with Haoren following closely.
