Nicole put down the teacup, looked at Ian and said, "You've only been in the imperial capital for a long time, and you've been in so much trouble. ”
Ian scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "You think I want to, it's all trouble that finds me, and it's not me who looks for trouble." ”
"So the wedding car came to you and asked you to intercept it?" said Nicole jokingly.
Ian had nothing more to say.
To celebrate Nicole's official graduation from the Hunter Academy, and to celebrate the reunion of the trio. After picking up Nicole from the Hunter Academy, Dennis took the two to a teahouse, which is relatively remote, so there are fewer customers, the atmosphere is better, and the environment is quite good.
The main thing is that this teahouse belongs to the Dennis family, and it is not expensive to come here to eat and drink.
Nicole didn't dwell too long on Ian's car, and soon turned her attention to Ian's right shoulder: "Are your injuries healed?"
Ian nodded, and Nicole's eyes flashed with undisguised delight.
"Heaven hasn't given up on you, you can be a hunter again. ”
"I was meant to be a hunter. Ian shrugged, "Never changed." ”
"It's still a shame to say that you're two sentences. "I don't know who is in Tellmis who looks like he is going to live or die." ”
Ian choked. However, the moment Nicole mentioned Tellmis, Dennis's face was also a little lonely, and Nicole knew that she had spoken. What she wanted to say was just blurted out, and she didn't remember that in the hearts of the three of them, Tellmis was still a knot.
"We can't stay away from Eric. Nicole said, "It's always going to be faced." ”
"I know. Ian nodded, "I'm relieved." ”
"Also, I've always wanted to talk to you. Nicole shook the teacup, the tea leaves swirling gently in the tea, "After that, we returned Erin's Shield to Tashi Village, do you know what we found?"
Ian looked at Nicole in confusion.
"Elves. Dennis took over the topic, "The people of Tashi Village have elven blood. ”
Ian froze. He still remembered that on the carriage to the alchemical city of Alder, Xiu and Ian and Nicole mentioned some things about the elves, and guessed that the people in Tashi Village were most likely related to the elves. Unexpectedly, this guess was confirmed?
The thought of Eric's kinship with the legendary elves with long ears made Ian feel a little incredible.
"How was this confirmed?" Ian asked, "Eric doesn't have long ears. ”
"The people of Tashi Village only have elven blood, not elves. "We found a lot of evidence, such as the frescoes, such as the totem of the elven queen, and their altar is similar to the altar of the legendary elves. Actually, Eric's Erin's shield is also a very direct proof, isn't it? It is also a legendary relic belonging to the elves. ”
"And they have a pact of seclusion that only elves have. Dennis added, "If I'm not mistaken, they were once an offshoot of the elves, and then they intermarried with humans and slowly lost their elven identity, but the tradition is still there." ”
"But why is it here?" Ian asked, puzzled, "It's clear that the entire elven race is extinct." ”
In response to Ian's question, Dennis and Nicole looked at each other, and then Dennis slowly spoke: "In fact, there is no indication that the elves are completely extinct. Unlike the dwarves, the dwarves do not have a treaty of escape, so although their race has suffered a major disaster, some of them have survived and come into our sight. ”
"The elven race is different, this ancient race, even if there are only a few hundred people left, will follow the rules. After the incident in Tashi Village, I guess that the elves did suffer the disaster of extermination at the beginning. But some of them must have survived, and the surviving people began to migrate, but they still had to avoid people's eyes. Tashi Village is the descendant of the surviving part of the elven clan. ”
Although Dennis said a long list, it was not difficult to understand, but Ian was still a little difficult to accept. It is rumored that the elves have been wiped out for a hundred years, but now they have reappeared in everyone's sight. This reminded Ian of a poem his mother used to sing when he was a child.
"I love the snow in the north, I love the elves with long ears, and one day there will be elves who will come on the white snow and the cold wind. ”
"Elves in the north?" Ian asked suddenly.
Nicole nodded: "That's right, based on the murals on the altar in Tashi Village, it is inferred that the elves are still in the north, and it is very likely that they are still in their original home, the Yarman Forest." ”
The legendary Forest of Yarman. Ian was no stranger to the name, as the first dragon he and Nicole had slayed, the sharp-tailed black-feathered dragon, was in the Arman Forest, the Lutheran Forest. It's just that compared to the Yarman Forest, the Lutheran Forest is too insignificant, and no one knows what is in the depths of the Yarman Forest, only that it and the Tyrmis Mountains are called the two major human forbidden areas.
The Tellmis Mountains are because of the danger, and the Yarman Forest is because of the mystery. No one walks in alive and comes back alive.
Ian remembered the legend Green and the legend he had mentioned when he was in Atlantis. The Elven Queen will set up a labyrinth in the forest to test humans, and the honest will pass through the labyrinth to the elven station, where they will be warmly entertained. On the other hand, the greedy and cunning will be trapped in the labyrinth until death, or will be led directly to death.
Whether this legend is true or not, it also shows very well that the elves are also a race linked to mystery. Compared to the dwarves, the elves have left too many legends. And such a mysterious race and such a mysterious place as the Yarman Forest come together
"Get ready, Ian. "Our next stop might be the Yarman Forest. ”
Ian was taken aback, "Why? Shouldn't exploring the unknown be the business of exploration teams?"
"There are some things that the exploration team can't do. Dennis pulled out a card with fiery red roses from his pocket, "Someone wants to see us tonight and will explain to us, this is an invitation." ”
Ian took the invitation, and in addition to the names of the three of them, he saw the signature of the dragon and phoenix dance at a glance.
From Lord Rose Karanstuart.
