Chapter 14: Apostolic Paradise

Qin Lun glanced at the elf lightly, stretched out his palm, and spread it out in front of him, revealing the small skull pattern with his eyes flashing with scarlet ghostly fire.

"Please forgive Marfa for the offense, I have never seen the soul mark of the official apostle, thank you for satisfying my curiosity!" The smile on Marfa's face grew kinder, and she bowed slightly on her horse to apologize.

Qin Lun grinned, when Gede negotiated with the elves, Marfa looked at him in surprise several times, obviously he came to verify at this time. The so-called curiosity is just a pretext for the elves, how could an important person who was sent by the floating city to receive the preparatory apostles have never seen the soul imprint.

When Marfa bowed, Qin Lun's gaze crossed Marfa's shoulder and landed on a jade crossbow that he was carrying behind him. The bow is small and small, with an emerald green color, like a kingfisher with wings outstretched.

Compared to the tall and sturdy bows behind the other elves in the horse team, this crossbow not only looks a little different, but also has a short crossbow arm, so I don't know how powerful it will be.

Marfa Moria quickly felt Qin Lun's gaze, a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, and with a stretch of his right hand, he took off the jade crossbow and handed it to Qin Lun.

"This is the heirloom of our Moria family, if you like crossbows, after returning to the Moonlight Forest, I will send someone to bring you one, which can be regarded as reparation just now!"

The surface of this delicate little crossbow flowed with brilliant green light, as if it had its own soul, Qin Lun just played with it, then handed it back to Marfa, and said with a smile: "No need, I don't know how to use a crossbow, just pure appreciation!" ”

The short journey soon came to an end, and the Elven Cavalry escorted the twelve Preparatory Apostles to the bottom of the Moonlight Forest. Looking at this floating city up close, everyone realized more clearly what kind of behemoth it was.

Not to mention the transparent shield that shrouded down like the sky, even the steel guardrail with the base in the middle is almost comparable to the tall walls of the ancient Xiongcheng. At the bottom of the city, however, it was not made of steel, as everyone thought at first, but layers of thick and pillar-like plant roots intertwined with each other, condensing into a green base.

When everyone arrived, the roots of the plants on the base slowly wriggled, weaving a wide green corridor downward, enough for four horses to be in parallel, and even the rhinoceros beasts ridden by Qin Lun and others could enter side by side, which could be described as extremely magical.

When the prisoners stepped out of the corridor, they found a gravel path in front of them. The gravel path stretched through a large forest full of life, and in the tall canopy on either side, some young-faced elves poked out their little heads and stared at their new arrivals from another time and space with their big cute eyes.

In the forest, birds sing and flowers are fragrant, and all kinds of rare birds and beasts rush past the front of the team from time to time. These little things don't seem to be afraid of strange guests at all. Often stopping unalertly and tilting their heads to observe the humans in the group, the prisoners have the strange feeling of being turned into zoo exhibits.

Among these rare beasts, an unknown stag with a snow-white body and pink plum spots on its body even stopped the elven horse team with a majestic spirit. After being driven away by the elven guards, it reluctantly took an arrogant step and disappeared into the depths of the forest.

As the team went deeper into the forest, Qin Lun and the others also saw the elven tree house built in the canopy. These treehouses are plain in shape, trying not to damage the original structure of the tree, presenting a natural beauty.

The moment was short-lived, and when the sound of rushing water came from the front of the group, everyone realized that they had passed through the forest and appeared on the edge of the azure lake.

Marfa Moria had been observing the expressions of the prisoners in the procession, and every time the Moonlight Forest greeted the prospective apostles, he would take them through the forest station, which contained a deep purpose.

When these visitors from different time and space see this beautiful and peaceful environment for the first time, many of them will unconsciously reveal a little inner affection.

The elves could then assess which of the preparatory apostles liked the living environment and which of the apostles coveted the rare animals of the forest. As a result, corresponding policies were formulated to strengthen the sense of identity of the Preparatory Apostles with the Moonlight Forest.

"Don't we live in the forest?" Qin Lun asked with some regret.

In his life, he had never been in contact with nature since he was sensible, and when he entered the children's welfare home at the age of eight, he could only look up at the birds flying in the narrow sky above the small courtyard. At the age of twelve, he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital, and soon after that he was transferred to a juvenile detention center and a heavy prison, where he could only face the pale and empty walls of his cell.

Hearing Qin Lun's question, Marfa's smile became more and more pleasant, and he explained in detail: "We elves like to be close to nature, live a simple life, and eat simply. Most of the apostles, on the other hand, preferred to enjoy life because they were on the verge of life and death for many years. For this reason, the Moonlight Forest specially built a special Apostolic Paradise at the bottom of the Moonlight Lake as a residential area for VIPs. ”

As the two talked softly, Qin Lun soon saw a semicircular glazed road on the right side of the lakeside, about ten meters wide and five meters high, stretching towards the bottom of the lake. Through the glazed walls of the corridor, everyone can even see all kinds of strange-shaped water fish and other colorful underwater plants.

Although the road is quite long, but you can enjoy such a wonderful world under the lake, even the most perverse prisoner does not show impatience. In the blink of an eye, the two-kilometer-long road has come to an end, and a small town resembling the Middle Ages appears in front of the prisoners.

Above the town is a moonlight lake supported by a thick glazed cover, and the sunlight reflects into the town through the pure and transparent water, leaving a meandering strip of light on the ground, and the whole environment seems quiet and remote.

"This is Apostolic Paradise?"

Most of the houses in the town are relatively low, and they are mostly made of wood. Qin Lun stretched out his hand and touched the wall of a wooden house next to him, and suddenly a cool feeling came into his palm. The woods are very hard, with a quaint texture, and the whole town looks antique, full of serene elegance.

"Isn't it different from the so-called paradise of your world?" Marfa smiled mysteriously, "You'll soon learn what paradise means!" But come with me for now, and when all the guests are settled, I can guide you around the town, if you wish. ”

"Please call me Qin Lun!" Qin Lun nodded with interest.

"You can call me by my name as you wish!" Marfa smiled gracefully with a hint of joy in her eyes.

For the Moonlight Forest, Qin Lun's current appearance is very much in line with the requirements. He has an indifferent temperament, loves nature, and has an elegant demeanor, and is the only official apostle who has received the soul mark among the twelve traversers.

Marfa Moria sometimes had the illusion that the man in front of him, who was always smiling, was not a human from another time and space at all, but a member of the elven race.

As everyone came to the outskirts of the town, the elven guards began to break up the ranks, and the twelve preparatory apostles were taken to their respective residences, while Qin Lun was personally guided by Marfa. Of course, the elves still kindly asked the advice of the various apostles, and let the prospective apostles who were willing to be in the same room use the same cabin.

In front of these wooden houses on the outskirts of the town, there are elven guards patrolling back and forth. Marfa's explanation for this is that there are also some senior official apostles in the town, and most of the apostles have different temperaments and go their own way. The establishment of some guard points is conducive to reducing some unnecessary friction between the newly arrived prospective apostles and the senior apostles.

"Qin Lun, how do you need to arrange these distinguished guests behind you?" Marfa had already seen that Lin Feng, Xiaolian and Little Goblindidi were all headed by Qin Lun, so he opened his mouth to inquire at this time.

"Except for this little one, the other two can do whatever they like!" Qin Lun glanced at the three of them and immediately replied with a smile.

When Lin Feng heard this, he immediately stayed away with an elven guard beside him. The family has been worried and scared until now, and finally there is a kind of dragon returning to the sea, as you like. As for Xiaolian, after hesitating for a while, she still chose to continue to follow Qin Lun, and was arranged by the elven guards to a small cabin near Qin Lun's residence.

Qin Lun's own wooden house is an elegant two-story small wooden building, with a living room on the ground floor, furnished with wooden chairs and toiletries, and a small fireplace embedded in the wall facing the doorway.

On the second floor is the bedroom, which is more austere and has a small window at the head of the bed with delicate floral curtains. The sheets and bedding felt a little strange to the touch, non-silk and non-hemp, and were woven from plant fibers that Qin Lun had never seen.

There is also a small attic with a spire on top of the bedroom, which was originally used to pile up sundries, and now it is estimated that it will be cleared out and used as a shelter for the little goblindi.

Qin Lun only rested in the room for a moment before he heard Marfa greeting downstairs. The elf came to fulfill his promise and take Qin Lun to visit all over the town.

The little goblindidi had a weak physique, and after running all the way, he was already exhausted, so he had to stay in the wooden house to rest. Qin Lun followed Marfa alone and entered this very distinctive apostolic paradise.

As the two went deeper into the town, Qin Lun found that the wooden houses in the town had slowly changed from simple residential buildings to castle-like buildings with a huge area. Of course, due to the limitation of the moonlight lake overhead, these castles are relatively low, and the tallest ones are only three or four floors.

"This town is called Moonlight Town, and the periphery is basically the apostle's residential area, and the middle floor is the entertainment area, with bars, exchanges, auction houses, and other entertainment facilities." Marfa smiled and introduced to Qin Lun.

"In fact, the most important core area of the entire Moonlight Forest is in the inner layer of Moonlight Town. Although the Moonlight Forest is only a small floating city of our elves, outsiders don't know that it is one of the two most important academy cities of the elves. The Elven Clan's greatest apostolic academy, the Ifrit Boguang Academy, is in Moonlight Town! ”
