Chapter 1153: The Vanishing Sage's Tower
Later, Princess Yuro quietly left Listening to the Wind City.
Zhao Nan was also preparing to return to the East China Sea through the GuΓ² message between the Shen Xing. Before leaving, Zhao Nan remembered that he hadn't been in contact with Locke and Gui Sisi for a while.
I remember the last time I asked the two of them to go to Pompeii to tell SΓΉ Iverson to let him get stuck was to carry out the mass production plan of the emotional circuit, and after the two of them finished it, they said that they would go to the Tower of the Sage.
"No reply for so long...... Is something going on? β
Zhao Nan felt that something was wrong in his heart.
The coordinate settings that were originally intended to teleport to the East China Sea were suddenly changed to the sub-crystals held by Locke. But the teleportation failed.
There is no communication, and the delivery fails...... If something didn't happen to the two, then they were trapped in some isolated place?
It seems that the original plan to return to the East China Sea needs to be postponed.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Locke was instructed by Iverson to bring some small gifts to Ulysses in the Tower of the Sage because of his care.
If Locke and Guisi had set off at that time, they would have been in the forest where the Sage's Tower was located...... A place where a tribe of elves has lived for generations.
Zhao Nan was still very clear about the location of this forest, and it didn't take much time to reach the destination.
What surprised Zhao Nan was that there seemed to be a very fierce battle here. The peaceful tribe has been destroyed, and most of the tree houses built on the trees have been demolished...... Broken arrows...... Blood-stained old tree roots......
"Is it man-made......"
Zhao Nan wandered among the entire tribe for a while, not to mention a living elf, not even a single animal was found.
At this time, his expression moved, and he flashed to an ancient tree beside him. Standing on the thick branches, his entire body slowly fades into the air until it finally disappears.
It was a group of elven warriors, not many in number, probably a team of about two hundred people. Among them was a white-haired elven who appeared to be the leader of the warriors.
Auroris ...... The god species is a four-star high-level stage.
It's not a very powerful type of deity. It's just ...... "What the hell is going on with this guy's will, it seems to be full of hatred and anger?" β
Zhao Nan quietly looked at the white-haired elf, and a long-term memory slowly opened at this time, "I see...... I've seen this guy. β
In the whole process of letting the Floating City crash into the Fairy Forest, in order to let the Celestial Wing Empire, which was still very powerful at that time, take care of it, Zhao Nan deliberately provoked the contradiction between the two sides, and directly incarnated into the dead Young City Lord of Ekosbon, Geros, and killed many warriors in the Fairy Forest.
And this Auroris is one of the survivors he once spared...... Because Auroris had gray hair because of anger and sadness at that time, his strength directly skyrocketed a little, thus leaving an impression.
"But count the time...... This guy's progress during this time. It's not slower than the Chosen One. Zhao Nan nodded secretly.
Sure enough, hatred, if used as a driving force, can make people become powerful quickly.
At this time, the elven team led by Auroris seemed to be like Zhao Nan, and they didn't figure out what was happening here.
I saw Auroris frowning and looking at a very young elf beside him: "What's the matter?" β
The elven man said with a sad face, "Lord Aurorais, it seems that we are late! The village must have let the sea clan ruin miΓ¨!! β
Let's talk about it. The young elf fell to his knees in agony, and with tears streaming down his face, he said, "If only I hadn't left the village...... I shouldn't have answered the call of the Elven King...... I should have stayed in the village to defend everyone! Everyone...... I'm sorry for you! β
Unexpectedly, Auroris grabbed the young elf by the collar at this time. Lifted him up and said indifferently, "Even if you are here, what can you do?" The sea clan that can destroy miΓ¨ in your village can naturally destroy miΓ¨ you too! But at least now that you're not dead, you still have a chance to avenge your village, your loved ones! It's because you're back in the Fairy Forest. to be able to receive help from the village! If you hadn't answered the call at the beginning, no one would have known about it even if you were to destroy the village at this moment! Not to mention who can avenge you! β
After that, he threw the person directly to the ground. Unlike most elves who make people feel close and elegant. Auroris is like a beast that can choose to devour people at any time!
"Lord Auroraris, you must avenge the people of the village!" The young elf quickly got up from the ground and pleaded.
Auroris snorted coldly, not looking at the young guy directly, "The battle here hasn't happened for more than a day!" Although we are a step late, the murderer should not have gone far at this time! Trace! Follow all the smells for me, and I want to know where the murderer left! β
"Yes!"
The elven warriors began to scatter.
Auroris stood still, his hands down, his eyes closed, motionless. But the will that was unusually exuberant and full of evil thoughts seemed to be very active.
Zhao Nan slowly left the tribe at this time...... "No wonder it's progressing so fast, and there's no time wasted at all." β
Just as the elven warriors began to search the vicinity, Auroris did not forget to exercise his will. With such an almost harsh cultivation method, it is difficult not to improve one's strength.
But no matter how hard Auroris cultivated, it had nothing to do with Zhao Nan...... As long as he didn't say it, Auroris would never know that the original person was himself.
"However, this tribe was ruined by the Sea Clan. Could it be that Locke and Sisi fell into the hands of the Sea Clan? β
This idea is not impossible.
"Let's go to the Sage's Tower first."
Thinking about it, Zhao Nan had already walked towards the location of the Sage Tower in his impression. Again, it didn't take much time.
However, when Zhao Nan came to the location of the Sage Tower, he couldn't help frowning.
Back then, the Sage's Tower was able to hide and make it invisible to all. But to this day, Zhao Nan doesn't think that this kind of hiding can escape his eyes.
But now...... A huge pit appeared on top of the grass in front of him. And the Sage's Tower, which was supposed to stand above this pit, has disappeared!
Zhao Nan walked around the entire deep pit, squatted down at the edge, grabbed a handful of soil, frowned and said to himself: "It's like being pulled out completely...... Isn't it destroyed? But even if it's unplugged...... Who made the stroke when it fell to the ground? β
In contemplation, a noisy voice came into Zhao Nan's ears, not far from this place. A shout rang out.
Zhao Nan's figure flashed, and he came to the scene soon after.
In front of them, the two sides are fighting. One of them was the elven warrior led by Auroris that he had met not long ago, while the other was a warrior of the Sea Clan.
The number of Sea Clan warriors is not large, only a few dozen...... Maybe it's just a patrol nearby. As patrol soldiers, the strength of these Sea Clan warriors is not strong, and they also have to face elven warriors who are several times their own, and there is almost no suspense about victory or defeat.
At this time, Zhao Nan's heart moved. Reaching out, he pointed at one of the Sea Clan warriors who was fighting. In this way, the Sea Clan warrior was directly withdrawn from the battlefield. During the whole process, whether it was a warrior of the same sea clan or an elven warrior, it seemed that this guy could not be seen.
And encountering such a strange thing couldn't help but make this Sea Clan warrior look full of horror - until he finally appeared in front of Zhao Nan.
The name of the Sea Clan is Upu.
"You, what are you!" Upu looked extremely nervous at this time.
Imagine yourself at this point. If you don't panic in your heart, then there will be ghosts! But Zhao Nan didn't bother to talk nonsense with this ordinary Sea Clan warrior. The gray light in his hand flashed, and Upu was already under the control of the skill demon. Next, it's time for a simple inquiry.
It turned out that this group of Sea Clan warriors had been sent to this place to complete a special mission...... The content of the mission is known only to the commander in charge of this operation.
Now the entire Sea Clan army has not left this forest...... It seems like they're looking for something. Patrols like Upu will all spread out.
As for the elven tribe, it is also the poisonous hand of this sea clan legion. But not all the elves in the village were killed. Instead, some of them were captured and are now temporarily imprisoned in the place where the Sea Clan Legion is stationed.
Upp is just a lowly-ranking patrolman who doesn't know much. After Zhao Nan asked a few words and couldn't come up with any more useful information, he directly let this guy return to the battle again. Just returned to the battle, and Upu came to his senses for the next second. His chest was pierced through by the weapon of an elven warrior, killing him instantly...... I don't know what happened to the death.
Instead of killing all the Sea Clan warriors, Auroris left two alive and began to interrogate them on the spot. The remaining two Sea Clan warriors were not necessarily hard-boned, and under some torture and intimidation, they had already truthfully vomited out what they knew.
Once the details were clear, the elven commander ordered his men to evacuate the place for the time being, and had the corpses of the Sea Clan warriors removed, leaving traces of the site to be cleaned up.
Zhao Nan thinks that this Auroris is more sophisticated. There are more than 50,000 Sea Clan warriors in the entire forest, and there are only 200 elves on the elf side.
"If you don't bring reinforcements, it's going to sneak into the hostages to save the village."
Silently watching this group of elven warriors leave, Zhao Nan shook his head and walked to the scene of the battle. Although these elven warriors are veterans, it is impossible to completely restore the scene without a single flaw in such a short period of time.
"Just give them a little bit."
The so-called restoration of the original state...... There is probably nothing more perfect than Zhao Nan's willpower.
"It is impossible for the elves of the fairy kingdom to die without saving them. If you don't save people, it will only go against your own purpose......" Zhao Nan said to himself: "There will be a war here." β
But before that, Zhao Nan wanted to figure out what this Sea Clan legion was when it appeared here to carry out the so-called special mission.
He was a little concerned about this so-called special mission - the disappearance of the Sage's Tower and the appearance of the Sea Clan Legion...... I wonder if there is any connection between the two?
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
If you don't save people, you have to go deep into the camp where the Sea Clan warriors are stationed. It's not a difficult thing to do.
A legion of 50,000 people is only a drop in the bucket for the number of sea tribes, and in this forest, it may not be able to occupy much land.
Surrounded by wet dirt. The forest was already relatively well watered, so the Sea Clan warriors stationed here seemed to be in a pretty good mood.
Maybe it's because I think the village has been destroyed and people have been arrested. There was no strict defense against the elves in the village.
The Sea Clan warriors dug a huge earthen pit, imprisoned the elves they had captured from the village, and threw them underneath, covering them with a wooden fence surrounded by dozens of soldiers and guards.
Zhao Nan walked to the edge of this pit.
I saw that the elves of all sizes inside had haggard faces, snuggled up to each other, and cried in low voices, it seemed that they had indeed suffered a lot during these days.
And in this group of hostages. Zhao Nan also unexpectedly saw an acquaintance, the leader of this elf village - Wood Woods!
Wood Woods, who is already disabled, is too far from the extraordinary elf man in Zhao Nan's memory. Woodwoods sat alone in a corner with a dead face and blank eyes.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Wood Woods."
Suddenly, a shout reached Woodwoods' ears. He looked at the people in the village in front of him suspiciously, trying to find out who was calling him.
However, the people in front of them basically lowered their heads. Wood Woods frowned...... The voice of the call was heard again.
Who is calling out to himself?
"Lift your head."
Wood Woods was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked up. But I saw that on top of the wooden fence, there was a guy who was not a sea tribe - it was a human being.
A human who can call his own name? Woodwoods was slightly stunned, this place was theoretically more than human beings...... The Sea Clan warriors were still standing around, as if they were ignoring the human's cries.
The moment that made Wood Woods feel incredible, he suddenly thought in his heart, could it be that this human and these sea tribes are in the same group?
"It's me. Zhao Nan...... Remember? β
Wood Woods was stunned again. After a few silent recitations, a short meeting finally broke into his mind! Woodwoods suddenly became excited for some reason, and stood up almost without thinking, "It's you!" How did you get here? β
But when he spoke, Woodwoods already regretted itβhe was afraid that the villagers in the pit would be frightened.
However, what surprised Wood Woods was. His own loud voice did not attract anyone's attention, and even his own standing against the wall did not alarm the people around himβeveryone seemed to be unable to see his being.
"Rest assured, for the time being our conversation, no one will be able to see it." Zhao Nan said indifferently: "I don't think you want to alarm the tens of thousands of Sea Clan legions here, right?" β
Wood Woods took a deep breath and said, "Oh! Oh, my God! Zhao! It's you! Forgive me, I even thought you were a Sea Clan just now. β
Zhao Nan shook his head and said, "In that case, no matter who you are, you will doubt it, right?" It's nothing...... I'm passing through here, so I'm going to come and have a look. I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. The affairs of the village, please mourn. β
Wood Woods frowned and said, "Are you just passing by?" β
Zhao Nan's heart moved: "What? β
Woodwoods shook his head and said, "Locke came not long ago, and I thought you were looking for him. β
Really!
Zhao Nan hurriedly asked, "Where is Locke now?" β
Woodwoods sighed and said, "He came here with a woman. At the time......"
Afterwards, Wood Woods talked about the day's situation, "...... Locke said that he wanted to go to the Tower of the Sages to have a look, and if he could, maybe ask the teacher to help us. It's a pity that I haven't seen anyone since I went. Later, all of a sudden, the Sea Clan warriors exploded, and they attacked the village directly, surrounding us all, and if we resisted, we could only die. We were defeated and ended up being caught in this place. β
Zhao Nan pondered for a moment and said, "Theoretically, the Sea Clan can kill all of you...... Why should I arrest you? This will only make it more troublesome. β
Woodwoods shook his head and said, "That's what I can't figure out. It's just that every day, they will arrest three, and they don't see the return of those who were captured, I think it's probably because of the bad luck. β
Zhao Nan nodded and asked, "So, apart from these, did you feel anything suspicious?" β
Woodwoods was stunned for a moment, frowned and recalled, "Speaking of which...... Not long ago, a bright light suddenly appeared in the sky, which seemed to alarm the Sea Clan warriors here, making them nervous for a while. Then people were sent to search around, but it seemed that no reason could be found. β
"Bright light?"
"Yes...... Woodwoods nodded, "If I'm mistaken, it should have been released from the direction of the Sage's Tower where the teacher was." At first, I thought that the teacher would come to the rescue after knowing what was going on with us. But then ......"
Woodwoods looked disappointed, but soon his face was full of anticipation: "Zhao Nan! Please save my villagers! (To be continued......)
