Chapter 40: Knock Knock

Pure white sofa, crystal chandelier, Charlotte resting on the sofa with her eyes closed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Wood, who entered the room, sat down unceremoniously, and then directly looked at the face of the melon seed that he hadn't seen for a while, and didn't even say hello.

Some have lost weight......

"What are you looking at?" Charlotte slowly opened her eyes after a moment, and then asked with a smile.

"It's nothing, I just feel that His Highness has lost weight again, and it's strange and distressed. Wood replied with a smile as well.

At this time, he had already taken off the mask, and his handsome face and smile were full of lethality to women (self-righteousness).

After some days of not seeing each other, Charlotte felt that the man in front of her was a little narcissistic again, and she just wanted to laugh and hit it, but there were always some guys who didn't know how to look at the atmosphere.

"It's coming!" the staff appeared in her hand.

Bang!

Before Wood could react, the window on the left shattered along with the wall, and a pair of scarlet eyes appeared in view.

As an adventurer, he immediately went into stealth and quickly distanced himself from this unknown guy.

Charlotte's magic has been activated, more precisely "lifted", dismantling the illusion in the room!

Wood fell into a brief shock as many adventurers appeared in his eyes, and all of them were heavily armed!

The men wore the Order of the Crows on their chests, and then they all rushed to the scarlet pupils.

The corners of Charlotte's mouth turned up slightly, she had already planned to fish, and Wood was the bait.

From a very young age to now, she feels like she's smart!

Wood finally reacted now, and then laughed, he didn't expect to be put on a show by His Highness today.

But it's a great feeling!

Because not only did he feel the intent of the attacker, but he also saw the golden bracelet in the crowd.

If he hadn't been fighting at this time, he would definitely blow a wave of His Highness's cleverness and wit.

Stepping on the wall, he then rushed at the attacker who broke the window.

He's going to put an end to this tonight!

After a while......

Under a punch and kick, the black-robed man was arrested without suspense.

But even though he was covered in wounds and chained, he still roared at Wood like a beast with red eyes.

People who don't know still think that Wood has some kind of enmity with him.

But in fact, Wood really didn't know this man.

He walked around the man's back, saw the bracelet in his memory, and smiled a little wickedly.

I've found you, baby!

Perhaps his voice was heard by the bracelet, and the golden bracelet began to tremble, as if it wanted to break free from the restraint and escape.

But Wood had been prepared for a long time, just in case, he put on gloves first, and then grabbed the man's wrist directly.

The man in the chains began to struggle, but the bracelet was taken off.

The moment the bracelet left the black-robed man, the scarlet eyes disappeared instantly, and then the man also fell asleep.

Wood looked at the sleeping man, then at the bracelet that was struggling wildly in his hand, as if he understood something.

If he guessed correctly, the bracelet has the ability to manipulate others.

Charlotte also walked over, her steps were a little erratic, and it could be seen that her physical condition was still relatively poor.

Although her expression was relatively flat, Wood, who was familiar with her, could still see the eagerness.

I didn't expect His Highness to care so much about this bracelet.

Despite wearing gloves, Wood felt the bracelet get hotter and hotter, like it was on fire.

"Oh no! let go!" Charlotte suddenly shouted.

Wood didn't have time to think, subconsciously listened to the words, and let go of the bracelet the moment the burning smell appeared.

"Roar!" came a roar from the bracelet, accompanied by a burning flame.

Charlotte's expression was a little solemn, and then a cold magic circle appeared on the staff, and she wanted to use her magic to suppress the bracelet!

While everyone's attention was on the bracelet and Charlotte, the man who was lying on the ground suddenly opened his eyes.

I don't know where the strength came from, and it actually shattered the chains carefully prepared by the adventurer.

At this moment, he reached out and grabbed the burning bracelet, and at the same time, the reacting adventurer also stabbed the sharp weapon into his body.

His body was shattered in an instant, but he still held the bracelet in his hand as if he didn't feel the pain.

The death-defying humanoid beast roared and threw the bracelet out with all its might!

Wood didn't hesitate, he jumped out of the window to grab the bracelet.

The flammable bracelet is like a meteor, streaked across the night sky with tremendous power, and flies quickly into the distance!

"Damn!" The flame wings opened in an instant, and Wood shot out like a cannonball, chasing after the bracelet.

Charlotte hurriedly jumped onto the broken window and was about to chase it out, but one of them didn't stand firm, and her body suddenly fell backwards.

Fortunately, there was her regiment member in the rear, and she hurriedly caught the weak regiment leader.

Charlotte, who was sitting on the ground, looked to the side, and she saw a pool of blood in the moonlight.

On a pool of blood lay a man who had died.

The dead man's face remained hideous, but no one could connect the dead man to the ferocious beast he had just had.

Charlotte bit her lower lip, she was still too soft-hearted, she didn't expect this bracelet to be so cunning!

Maybe you should have killed this carrier in the first place...... No, this assumption is incorrect.

Her prophecy is not a magic skill, and it is already the limit to be able to calculate that this bracelet will follow Wood to her house, and the rest of the matter is also a blur.

She took a bottle of potion out of her pocket and drank it, then stood up with great difficulty.

The bitten lip was still bleeding.

Her dark eyes turned to some rage, sweeping over all the adventurers present, including Ake in the distance.

With a rare look of fear, Ake lowered his head and said nothing.

"We have just done the right thing, and that is not to kill innocents, because we still have the final bottom line as human beings, and this bottom line is called kindness. ”

She spoke as she walked towards the gate.

"But after the right thing, we made too many mistakes, first of all, a slow and disappointing reaction. How could that bracelet get away with it? I still can't believe it. ”

She pushed open the door, and the night was a little cold, and she put on an overcoat.

"The second point is arrogance, since the victory in the siege of Reims. The city, as well as the whole of the central region, has taken in our crows. Perhaps because of this, we began to immerse ourselves in the praise, became less trained, and lost the vigilance that everyone shouts and beats. ”

Charlotte, who had her back to the members, suddenly smiled, and when she woke up, she saw that several members of the group had small bellies.

Although she showed a smile that others couldn't see, she still carried the anger of being the head of the regiment in her tone.

"If it was us in the past, that humanoid monster just now would be faster than our sword even if it moved fast? Wouldn't you mages have a magic in their hands first? Forget all the common sense? I can't wait to lower all of you guys to the reserve regiment!"

This last sentence is not very loud, but it brings the temperature in the room to freezing.

Behind him, Ake shuddered, there was a question, he was now in the reserve regiment, what would happen if he descended again?

Why don't you hug Wood's thighs? The banner of the Crown of Thorns is quite in line with his aesthetics.

And then...... Charlotte's anger is really terrifying, at least more imposing than Wood.

Throughout the room, the adventurers became cautious about breathing, for fear of a big gasp, and then they were sent to the reserve group.

Their regimental commander really did this kind of thing!

They don't want to be the chicken.

"You go and inform the other commanders......" Charlotte said as she froze and her smile vanished.

Speaking of which, of the five legion commanders at the beginning, it seems that she and Harry are the only ones left.

When she woke up, these things were a little cruel to her weak people, because she still liked those guys.

When it's all over, go check them out......

"Just let Harry come here...... As soon as possible. The voice lost the momentum it had just now, and became a little sad.

She glanced at the moonlight and walked upstairs, leaving only a mixed sigh.

She missed her dead friends, who she didn't have many friends for, but now they were even fewer.

It's sad.

She has a great ideal that no one knows, yes, not a dream but an ideal!

Dreams represent too much unreality, and ideals represent that she has the confidence to achieve them!

Sorry, please don't mention the word, because she never didn't think about it.

As soon as she thought of this, she regained her spirits.

Walking into her room, she didn't turn on the light, but looked in the direction where the bracelet flew away by the moonlight.

Although divination could not be used for the time being, from the very beginning, she felt an ominous aura......

Under the stars, Wood's wings on his back didn't flick anymore, because it was now using the flamethrows to move forward.

Because this bracelet flies so fast!

After a while, the bracelet finally slowed down, and then fell into the mountains

But Wood stopped in the air and hesitated, for the sight of the woods below filled his heart with unease, as if to warn him not to go in.

After taking a deep breath, he chose to fly downward.

He was an adventurer, and danger was unavoidable for him.

And he's also a master who wipes the minions' butts......

Wood stood on the green grass, surrounded by towering trees, with a motionless golden bracelet lying in front of him.

He felt strange now, because it was full of trees and greenery, and the smell of nature was blowing in his face.

But even in this kind of illusion, let alone animals, he didn't even see a single insect.

It's a little weird......

After thinking about it again, he still couldn't resist the temptation of the bracelet and took a step forward.

Suddenly! His footsteps stopped, and a cold sweat ran down his cheeks.

Countless Dao powers from nowhere locked on him, revealing an innate hostility.

Wood closed his eyes, and he opened his mind to explore his surroundings.

Until the end, he was unable to find other creatures, so he came to a seemingly crazy conclusion.

All the trees around him, every green grass under his feet, were deeply hostile to him!

It was so crazy, so crazy that he took another deep breath, and then remembered something even more terrible with his calm head.

Is there a mountain here?

The night breeze swept across his cheeks, the cold enveloped his inside, and the sudden burst of cold sweat penetrated his back.

The green grass in the moonlight began to wither, and the trees behind it turned branches and roots into hands and feet, and then opened their mouths and empty eyes.

The leaves of the trees blown by the wind also turned from green to black......

He still stood there in a daze, seeing that all this was changing, and he also saw the golden bracelet in front of him trembling.

It's like a human laughing and covering his stomach and rolling on the ground.

The bracelet was making fun of him for killing himself.

Wood's mind was not yet overwhelmed by fear, he looked into the distance, using his mental eye to find a void rift.

There weren't any cities nearby, but there was a void crack here.

Then there are only two possibilities.

One is that it was all made by this bracelet.

It's very unlikely, because if it had the ability, wouldn't it be better if it had just done it in Reims City?

Then there is only one possibility.

Nearby, there is a gate that has not yet been discovered by humans!

Moreover, the gate has already begun to summon intruders!

"Miss, let's evacuate quickly. Wood didn't care about the bracelet, and he didn't want to get tangled with the dryads that surrounded him.

He's going to get the news to the adventurers!

The eldest lady in the soul frowned: "I'm sorry, I can't feel any magical elements here. ”

"Damn!" Wood dodged the branch that swept at him, rolled on the ground, and continued to run.

It was the first time he missed being a birdman so much.

The scene is the same as in a dark fairy tale, with a hideous-looking dryad stretching out a whip-like branch to him, and he can only dodge it.

Fortunately, he has a good sense of direction, and he has already chosen a way out of the mountains with his heart's eye.

Wielding a dagger in one hand and spewing flames with the other, he struck a bloodless path through the woods.

The flames in the Black Flame stand out and make the dryads even crazier, because they hate flames!

Wood was tired now, for Dawn and his mana had been depleted by the constant firing, but he still hadn't been able to get out of the woods.

It was a short departure from what he had planned, and an ominous aura once again surrounded him.

Without mana, it can only shoot physical bullets, but luckily the improved physical bullets can also deal some damage to the Treants.

However, without the support of the fire elemental, this can only give him a little more time to survive.

"Be calm, be calm, you'll find out what's going on". He said to himself in his heart.

His eyes were still cooling, but he closed them and used his assassin senses to dodge the incoming branches.

At the same time, he explores places that he may not have discovered.

In his inner world, all the noise disappeared in an instant, and it had never been so quiet.

Knock knock knock...... He felt a heartbeat that was very different from his own, very smooth and comfortable.

If you listen carefully, it seems to be the sound of this mountain.

Bang!

As soon as Wood jumped to dodge the attack of several dryads, the mountain began to tremble, and the dryads became more and more excited, and he was knocked to the ground.

As the shaking became more and more violent, the whole mountain began to rise, and Wood, who had fallen to the ground, finally understood.

This mountain that appeared out of thin air is actually alive!

The dryads attacked Wood even more frantically, and Wood rolled around on the ground, dodging constantly.

It was a dangerous process, and within a few moments he was covered in scars, but fortunately there were no fatal injuries.

The mountain was still rising, and Wood was now so close to the sky that he could hold on to the stars with his hand.

In such a dangerous and beautiful situation, Wood is also ready for a thrilling escape plan!

But he'd rather take the risk than die here, because he believed in his bracelet!

"Miss, are you ready?" said Wood, smiling at this time, because the next step was going to be more exciting than ever!

"Alas...... You lunatic, if there's still no magic element out there, or if I've made a mistake. Do you know what the consequences will be?"

The eldest lady in her soul stood up, and since she woke up, her expression had never been so serious as it was now.

"It's okay, because you were so strong in the past that you almost knocked our whole team down by yourself. And now you, I believe in you!"

"Alas...... Can I say anything but sigh?"

The eldest lady is helpless now, she doesn't know how strong she used to be, but she is definitely not as crazy as this man!

3,2,1...... Hearteye cooldown is over!

Roll past the dryad's attack once more, then barely stand on your feet in the shock, find a direction and rush forward!

He's going to break out of this forest!

With every step he took, several quiet trees woke up and turned into noisy monsters.

The dagger became the best tool for felling, and the branches that stretched like whips were cut as easily as tofu when they touched the blade.

The dagger in Wood's hand is very sharp, but it still can't hold up the number of enemy troops!

Another whip slammed into him, this time causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

But even so, his steps only stumbled slightly, and after hastily adjusting, he gritted his teeth and continued to run forward!

Now, if he falls, he will probably never be able to get up again.

Smack! As Wood finished handling the whip in front of him, he was hit in the back again, and this time he was tied up!

The dryad that grabbed his body let out a terrible laugh that would have scared countless children into tears on a night like this.

Wood broke through with his dagger again, but before he could take two steps, a group of treemons blocking the starlight stood in front of him.

But he was not afraid, and his smile became brighter and brighter, like the sun in the night.

Behind this group of dryads is his destination!

"Get out of here!" Wood fearlessly rushed forward with his dagger.

Like a seasoned lumberjack, he knocked all the big trees in front of him to the ground, and then walked to the "edge of the cliff".

Now the air is thin where he stood, and there was no wind, because it was too high.

Looking into the distance, he saw countless brightly lit cities, the size of ants.

Turning around, he saw countless dryads running towards him with hideous faces, trying to tear him to pieces.

Wood looked down further, feeling a little dizzy even if he didn't have a fear of heights, and then lit a cigarette for himself in a cold sweat.

Smoke came out of his mouth with melancholy, for it was probably his last cigarette.

He turned his back to the cliff and held a cigarette in his mouth as he raised his middle finger at the dryads.

Then he slowly fell backwards like this......

The sound of this world became so simple for Wood that nothing but the sound of the wind passed by his ears.

In the process of rapid falling, he saw a pair of large, squinted emerald green eyes, which looked as if he hadn't woken up yet.

The limbs of the trunk of a tree that seem to hold up the sky are formed, and the body is a large emerald green crystal that shimmers beautifully.

And the head of this sky-supporting beast is the mountain, and the emerald green eyes are below the mountain.

Then, he was in no mood to continue admiring it, because he was dying!

In Wood's soul, the eldest lady spread her hands flat in front of her, as if performing some kind of ritual.

Having lost her memory, she only had the ability to manipulate the fire element, so she used fire as a playmate when she was bored.

She's calling, calling out to her friends in the air, and she needs their help.

"Please......"

In the real world, a hot wind suddenly swept across Wood's cheeks, making him extremely excited.

The familiar flames condensed behind him, and the fiery wings spread out under the night sky!

It has a gorgeousness comparable to that of starlight.

But with this pair of wings alone, it is obvious that it is still impossible to stop the falling force at this time.

However, Wood believed that the eldest lady who could manipulate the flames would not be able to bear to see his head bloom.

Sure enough, two familiar jets of flame appeared behind the wings, steading his body when there was still a slight distance from the ground.

"Long live the eldest lady!" first shouted: "It's so exciting, I have a chance to come again!"

Wood's heart was still pounding.

"Whew...... I'm exhausted. ”

The eldest lady didn't pay any attention to his nonsense, and after calming down, she continued to manipulate the flame wings......

The giant didn't stop Wood from leaving, but just looked into the distance.

Are those cities the target this time?
