The abandoned Elven Fortress was overgrown with dry vines, gurgling water flowing from beneath the cracked fortress, mottled moss covered the thick walls of the lower part of the fortress, a small pond filled with stagnant water lay in front of the fortress, a thin layer of ice ballast in winter, which looked extremely disgusting, a tall round tower towered lonely behind the fortress, and only the sound of rushing water could be heard all around, and the stream that Clark and the others pursued all the way was probably the sewer system of the fortress.

The elven stone carvings in front of the fortress and the exquisitely crafted dripping beak beast on the top of the fortress stone tower indicate that this was once an elven military installation, and the ruined drawbridge is half-dead on the dry moat, and the decayed doorway gives an unobstructed view of the inside of the fortress.

Behind the drawbridge and gate was a long passage filled with fragments of earthen pots, rotten iron weapons, and a large amount of rubble, and the passage was strewn with traces of flames burning violently, and several corpses could be faintly seen against the falling stones.

Seeing this scene, both the "Old Mountain" and the mercenaries felt very excited, a weeping war period elf fortress! Although the scale is not large, there should be a lot of valuable things, even if the good things will be taken by the mage, the mercenaries and guards will definitely be able to get a piece of the pie.

"Lao Shan" quickly regained his composure, unlike other mercenaries eager to find elven jewels, magic weapons and strange things, "Lao Shan" preferred to find a few words of elven high magic, and it was the instinct of every true mage to covet the magic of ancient elves.

As an immortal race, the elves are not as urgent as humans in the inheritance of their magic, and the communication between elven mages is only limited to neighboring tribes.

There is no doubt about the power of the magic of the High Elves, after the collapse of the kingdom created by the giants, it was the dragons who ruled the continent of Faerun, and different dragons ruled their own kingdoms, fighting each other, the elves stole dragon magic from the dragons, improved it into the elven high magic, and even researched the dragon madness lock that can make the dragon crazy.

The elves placed the core of the Lost Lock on the comet that descended on Ferron once in decades, Kingkiller, making it nearly impossible for the dragon to destroy it, and to this day, the dragons of Ferron are still in a frenzy once in a decade, unable to rule the continent of Ferron.

Even the former Nethar Empire, the reason why it was able to develop from seven small fishing villages to a magical empire was only because of the help of the elves at the beginning, in order to gain a firm foothold, more than 500 years ago, the powerful emerging empire - the Jondas Empire began to cut down forests on a large scale, slaughtered elves, and established a colony in today's Sambia, preparing to attack Cormier, who had been founded for hundreds of years.

The elves directly used the magic of the High Elves to cause a tsunami and destroy the Jongdas Empire, the newly formed coastline is the Vihong Sea on the south shore of the Falling Star Sea today, the actions of the elves directly led to the independence of Sambia, and the Jandas rebuilt the Jongdas Kingdom on the ruins of the empire, which has been in civil strife, and even today it remains in a half-dead state, reminding people of the power of elven magic.

"Old Mountain" has a great expectation of the elven magic that may be found, and many things have not been passed on by the elves themselves because of the war, and the elven ruins scattered in all corners of the valley have inspired generations of adventurers to explore, even at the cost of their lives.

Although he was eager to enter immediately, "Lao Shan" was quite cautious in casting a detection spell, which made "Lao Shan" breathe a sigh of relief that although it was still affected by the Elven Lock, the spell casting might fail, but with the spell attainment of "Old Mountain", the impact of the Elven Lock was negligible.

The living statue standing at the gate of the fortress has long been destroyed, and he can only watch the Sambians enter the fortress, "Lao Shan" cautiously cast a number of protective spells, several of his own guards followed behind the mercenaries who were exploring the way with tower shields, and Clark followed the guards of "Old Mountain" closely, trying to squeeze around him, but was driven away, making Clark almost have a seizure.

It wasn't until the demon vaguely pulled Clark that Clark remembered his purpose, and he was very fortunate to distance himself from the "old mountain", half because of the ** before the demon, and half because of Clark's identity, the mercenary captain also sent seven or eight mercenaries to protect Clark, which reduced the resentment of the mercenary captain in Clark's heart a lot.

The group entered the fortress in a slender queue, and following the traces of the battle, the mercenaries found several corpses of elves and orcs, their weapons and personal belongings had long since decayed, and there were no magical items on their bodies that could remain in their original condition for many years, which made everyone's mood a little low.

There was a damp smell of decay in the air, and the "old mountain" was bent on finding the sewer part of the fortress to investigate, so he kept urging everyone to speed up their pace, and they soon came to a hall.

The western part of the hall seemed to have been completely eroded by the sewers, the lubricating stones collapsing in the rushing water, and the moss and greasy aquatic plants mixed with a large amount of rubble, piled up together, emitting a heavy vapor.

"Lao Shan" eyes lit up, and ordered the mercenaries to come forward to check, the mercenaries searched carefully, and even dived into the water under the pressure of "Lao Shan", but except for some gold coins, they did not find anything valuable.

Just as the "old mountain" was about to cast a spell to investigate, several mercenaries knocked down a crumbling wall and brought everyone to a courtyard.

In addition to the semi-swampy ground in the courtyard, there is also a beautiful fountain that has stopped functioning, emitting a green light, and the water surface full of all kinds of algae is very disgusting, but the "old mountain" is a bright eye, and a dried corpse of an elven mage is found lying on its back in the corner of the fountain, and the spell book with a metal cover is particularly conspicuous on the black-green viscous ground.

"Lao Shan" cautiously asked the mercenaries to go and pick up the spell book, seeing the spell book, "Lao Shan" cautiously cast a detection spell, ready to probe if there is any sinister spell attached to it, just cast the spell, "Lao Shan" changed his face greatly, the magic power around him began to riot, the mercenaries disappeared in the light one by one, "Lao Shan" pulled Clark and the demon, just gathered a few guards to prepare to fight the riot of the magic power, was teleported to other ground.

In a dimly lit hall, Link, who was separated from Revaran and the others, looked at "Old Mountain" without tears, Clark and Lust looked at him cautiously, and the four tall guards on the other side drew their weapons and walked towards him.
