"Humans themselves don't have the ability to see at night. Claudia didn't want to believe she was exposed for that reason.

"But there are children of nature, and neither Dante nor Erwin asked, but you did. "It was this that made it clear that Link was a traitor.

There are only a handful of people who can accurately grasp the time and route of patrol scouts, and the scout leader happens to be one of them. At the first sight of her, Link also suspected that she was a mole, after all, the half-elf bloodline was too eye-catching. But when I think about it, it is not easy for a woman, especially a woman with night elf blood, to be able to sit in this position. The blood-conscious Night Elves will not accept the Half-Elves lightly, and once the identity of the traitor is revealed, she will not be able to gain a foothold on the surface. In addition, because of Bishop Dawn's insistence that the mole is in the Avenger Army, Link does not list Claudia as a suspicious target.

So when he heard her night vision, Link was so surprised that he didn't speak for a few seconds, and his pause was taken as a reflection by the others.

"You have been warned not to underestimate him. ”

A third voice sounded in the darkness, and as soon as Link turned his neck, Claudia's dagger was pressed down. Even if he didn't look at his face, he could guess who it was just by his voice.

The night elf, dressed in black leather armor, silently walked to the light, and the firelight from the cavern in front of him illuminated his face. Unlike the glow elves of order, who give people nobility and elegance, and the holiness that cannot be blasphemed, the evil elves who believe in the goddess of the night have the ultimate seductive demon, especially in the dark, the more they can set off their mysterious beauty.

"We meet again, messenger of Isol. The elf's right hand lightly covered his chest, and his upper body bowed forward slightly.

"Long time no see, Artis. Perhaps, I should call you by a different name. Link wasn't surprised by his presence.

"The name is true, and so is the position. Artis and Claudia were very close, and their godlike features testified to their relationship.

"Why don't you kill me?"

Artis grinned, "Until it's done, we're neighbors who don't offend each other. ”

This is, of course, a lie. The gods were able to convey power to the material realm through guΓ² messengers, and the reason why they really didn't kill Link was the fear of divine punishment.

But can a small dagger trap a child of nature? The answer is no, even if it is highly poisonous. Artis and Claudia rely on their skills, and the two masters and the dark environment are the source of their self-confidence. The information obtained through the cobwebs and the test of the recruits at Longyan Fort determined that Link was only a chosen one, with only a few simple buffs, as long as he was kept under control before the plan succeeded.

"You seem to have missed something. "Since he had already realized that Claudia was a traitor in Longyan Castle, Link naturally prepared a countermeasure.

"Do you mean Erwin or Dante? or, the Wind Falcon?" Claudia sneered.

"Nature's children never act alone, and I don't have just one follower. ”

Link's words made Artis change color slightly: "Damn! What about the wolf?"

"He only took the Wind Falcon to Longyan Fort. ”

In the moment of Claudia's distraction, Link used the Qi Technique, and the whole person turned into a puff of wind and slipped out of the hands of the half-elf.

Artis raised his crossbow and fired a burst into the flowing air, but Link's purpose was not to escape, and he floated to the center of the cave and appeared in front of the orcs and gnomes as a white deer. The digging and scolding stopped, and everyone looked at the white creatures that suddenly appeared, and Artis and Claudia blocked the passage after them.

The first to react were the gnomes, who shouted loudly with excitement. Doesn't the appearance of the Children of Nature mean that the Natural Alliance has already manifested the anomaly here?

The orc swung his whip angrily, and even the pain of the whip could not get the slave back to work.

"Please don't come nonsense, our clan uses all killer moves, if you ......are not careful," Artis could finish speaking, the big horn on Link's head began to glow, and then the entire cavern began to shake violently.

Claudia threw the dagger, but to her surprise, Link didn't use any protection, and the dagger cut through the skin, scattering a trail of blood on the ground.

"Do you want to test the power of divine punishment? not to mention the tunnels you dug in secret, Isol's power could easily destroy a city. Link had seen records of "divine punishment" in the library, and there was no shortage of species in history that were punished by the gods of nature for killing a child of nature.

Artis had a gloomy face, thinking that he had already figured out this chosen one from a human background, but he never expected that he would threaten them with his own life.

"Do you really think I'm going to swagger into enemy territory without any preparation? ”

"He's lying!" Claudia's voice was full of anger, "I've been secretly watching him all day, and there are no other followers except the Wind Falcon." ”

"Huh...... You're not the only spy at Longyan Fort. ”

Link's words successfully silenced Claudia, she was the head of the regiment at Longyan Fort, and of course she knew how complicated the power of that fortress was. Dwarves, elves, humans, the Dawn Sect, Hohenheim, the Old Emperor**, three species, three forces, and even the Natural Alliance has installed a half-elf eyeliner like Erwin who will not touch the bottom line.

Instead, Artis had in mind the alliance that the guardians of the Pillars of Earth had come to Aiden a few days ago to conclude with Bishop Dawn. Didn't he go to Longyan Fort to escape the undead?

"Do you really think I went to Dragonrock Fort to escape the frost?" As if knowing what Artis was thinking, Link suddenly raised his voice, "Do you really think your plan is foolproof and leakless? Hel has already sensed the anomaly here!Demon Lord, the Lich King has appeared on the southwest border of the Guardian Land one after another, what interests them here? There is only one Dragonrock Fort that resists the orcs!"

Before you know it, the gnomes' noise has stopped, and the empty lava cave is so quiet that only the sound of breathing can be heard.

"I don't like fighting, but if you think I'm weak and deceitful, then I'll prove my determination to keep the balance by fighting to become a punisher. With Link's shout, the cave shook violently again, and in addition to the sand and stones, large stones continued to fall.

Artis's expression changed several times, and finally gritted his teeth: "Retreat!"

He didn't dare to risk killing Link, he wanted to restore his status as a nobleman and become a superior person, not a divine punishment. Anyway, the failure of this plan is not his fault alone, and when he is held accountable, he can shift the responsibility to the undead, and the high priest was not optimistic about this plan at the beginning of the plan. It's too close to the Pillar of Earth, even with the help of the God of Shadows, it may not be able to hide from Isol, and the difference in strength between the second generation and the first generation is too great.

Claudia was very unwilling, she struggled and spent decades to get to where she is today. I thought that I could get credit by relying on this merit and was completely accepted by the night elves, but now, it's all in vain. Not only Longyan Fort, there is no place for her on the surface.

Glaring at Link with hatred, Claudia disappeared into the darkness with Artis.

Sure that the Night Elves were really leaving, Link stopped shaking the earth.

This is only a magic technique with a range of ten meters of itself, and this power alone is not enough to collapse the solid rock tunnel. It was thanks to Artis and Claudia's lack of magic that his adventurous plan was successful.

As soon as the shaking stopped, dozens of gnomes rushed towards Link with iron pickaxes as if they had agreed to do so. The orc guards looked at each other with whips, and no one dared to go up and ask for their own suffering. Just as Link was trying to scare the orcs off in the same way, there was a stumble of footsteps from the lava tunnels to the west, and there were quite a few of them. Soon, a group of orcs armed with weapons rushed into the cavern, for the same orcs that Link had seen in Divine Know.

Seeing the incarnation of the white deer representing Isol, Urgit's face turned pale in an instant.

Carefully planned and implemented for so long, it still failed.

"Get out of here!" Link was a little flustered, he didn't have the confidence to protect the gnomes while also defeating the many enemies.

Instead of retreating, Urgit stepped forward with courage.

"Messenger of the Earth, we do not mean to upset the balance. Urgit knew that the children of nature would not intervene for the sake of enslaving gnomes or causing war, and that they only cared about the balance between the species and the world.

"Seeing is believing, you are ready for a faction war. "Link applies various buffs to himself, and it will soon be time for the spell slot to reset, and no matter what their plot is, they will not be able to escape the foreknowledge of God's knowledge.

"We don't covet the bountiful inner 6, we do it purely to survive. The poisonous gases and flames of the abyss continue to erode the earth's surface, the land cracks, the water sources dry up, and plants no longer grow. Urgit spread out his hands, signaled that he was not armed, and showed due respect to the divine envoy.

Link didn't believe the orc chieftain's explanation, and he even suspected that the undead had a kick.

"The Great Rift has existed for decades, why not sooner or later, but now? At the most critical and intense time of the Northern War? Even if there is no Great Rift, the Kaogo Wasteland itself is arid and uninhabitable, why don't the orcs want to enter the Inner 6 Why are they attacking Longyan Fort year after year?"

Urgit was stunned for a moment, then thought of the information shared by the Night Elvesβ€”that the newly elected guardian of the Earth Pillars was a human.

"Just as the night elves who believe in darkness live only underground, so the orcs who believe in the god of war can only live in the Kaogo wasteland. From thousands to tens of thousands, each battle was a sacrifice to the gods. ”

Link obviously didn't expect the orcs to go to war every few years to be a sacrifice to the gods, and he thought it was the climate that made the orcs and humans fight endlessly.

Urgit stated that as long as Link could help them rid them of the demons that threatened the survival of the race, they would end their cooperation with the Night Elves, free all the dwarf slaves, and fill in the caverns that had been dug.

"The undead and demons weren't involved?" Link secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if it was just night elves and orcs, it wouldn't be enough for a faction battle.

"It's because of the demonic threat that we have to cooperate with the Night Elves. Urgit shook his head.

"With my strength, I can't defeat the Demon Lord. "It's good that the orcs agree to end their cooperation with the Night Elves, but Link is self-aware that he is no match for the Demon Lord. This can only be reported to Hull for the Acting Guardian to decide.

"Lord, no, no, no, it's not the Demon Lord who threatens our survival, he's the former Dragoon Captain of Longyan Castle, a fallen demon who was once called a hero. ”

The orc chieftain's words caused Link to exclaim, "Thunder?!"
