Chapter 136: Moonlight Village
The meal was very enjoyable for everyone, except for Velena, of course......
"Grandpa Pocandia, why is this village so heavily guarded, is there something going on here?" asked Turry, remembering the stern-looking guards outside the village.
"Oh, nothing, it's going to be many years ago. ”
Old man Pocandia fell into the memory.
"People here are very xenophobic, you should be able to feel it. It's all because of that conflict thirty-five years ago......"
After the old man's recollections, everyone knew the reason.
It turned out that thirty-five years ago, the elves of this village had a conflict with the royal family of the Tang Kingdom!
It's all because this village is rich in an ore called Moonshine Rain Stone.
The stone is so hard that it's three times harder than the black iron that is commonly used today, and it's also extremely tough, and it won't break easily, making it ideal for crafting blade equipment.
At that time, the warriors of the entire village used this kind of equipment made of ore! You can imagine how powerful the entire elven village is!
In the duel of warriors, a good weapon undoubtedly plays a decisive role.
And in one accident, it was discovered by the royal family of the Tang Kingdom!
The royal family of the Tang Kingdom demanded a very small price in exchange for the qualification to mine this ore, and of course Moonlight Village would not agree. In this way, skirmishes broke out......
That time was carried out by Tang Yang, the younger brother of the king of Tang State, and the team was personally led by his elder brother Tang Ang. And King Tang Aung happened to be in retreat, so he didn't know it.
In that battle, the human race led by Tang Yang did not return victorious, but suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of this small village......
Just when Tang Yang was about to lead people to attack this village again, King Tang Ang happened to be out of the customs! Tang Yang, who had lost a large number of Praetorian Guards for no reason, had no choice but to tell his brother the truth......
Tang Ang was furious when he learned the truth! It had been a long time since humans and elves had established diplomatic relations, and of course Tang Ang would not let his younger brother destroy it with his own hands! After severely punishing his own brother Tang Yang, he personally brought people to this elf village to apologize! This small turmoil was able to subside! At that time, Tang Huan of the Void Slash Academy also came here with the king.
Later, with the efforts of Tang Ang and Tang Huan for many years, they re-established diplomatic relations with this village. And the Moonlight Rain Stone, which was not produced much, was also equipped into the Praetorian Guards of the Tang Kingdom.
Now the reason why this village is so good with the Void Slash Academy is all because of Tang Illusion's efforts!
After the incident, the village had a patrol. All elves in the village who are at least thirty years old (equivalent to about eighteen years old in humans) must enter the patrol for training.
After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized.
"So that's the case! No wonder the guards in the village look so hard to mess with!By the way, Grandpa Pocandia, do all the young elves in the village have the strength of Rong?" Nade mentioned Rong, and there was still a look of awe on his face......
"Hehe, no. Rong is the number one warrior in the village, and his strength is also the most powerful elf!" the old man's pride was unmistakable!
"It's okay......" Nader patted his chest exaggeratedly.
It's no wonder that it would be terrible if everyone in this small village was as strong as Rong! and apparently Nade hadn't recovered from his "perverted strength" yet......
"In the village, only Rong is a physical martial artist, and everyone else also uses fighting energy or magic. The old man explained. "By the way, you're here this time?" the old man was also interested in the crowd's coming.
"Grandpa Pocandia, we're here to complete a mission. The Void Slash Academy has set our year-end mission here for a month. We still don't have a clue. Turry took out the note and handed it to the old man.
When the old man looked at it, he also shook his head slowly, indicating that he didn't understand the meaning.
"And what are you going to do next?" asked the old man again.
"Grandpa Pocandia, can we take a look around the village? Turry asked.
"Oh, of course no problem. You Void Slashers aren't bound here. It's not the same for other foreign travelers! You can just take a look, the village is not very big. By the way! There is a small lake at the end of the village, so you'd better not go near it! There is a peculiar piranha in the lake! It can eat and absorb the fighting spirit of the human body, and it is very difficult! You better be careful. Pocandia zealously instructed the people.
"Well, okay, Grandpa Pocandia, we're going to look around now, look for clues, and we'll be back in the evening. Turry confessed to the old man and led everyone out of the door.
After going out, none of them saw Velena. Don't worry though.
They smiled at each other and walked into this peculiar moonlight village......
By this time, the rainstorm had stopped. The location of Moonlight Village was no longer covered by a large number of dense trees, and everyone finally saw the sunshine that they had not seen for a long time. The crowd strolled along the cobblestone walkway and looked around.
"Lautoya, have you heard of the piranha that Grandpa Pocandia talked about just now?" Turry asked about the piranha that he hadn't asked in detail.
"Know some. It was a fish that lived on energy. Talisman Dou Qi does not work at all in the water. This piranha also has a characteristic, that is, it cannot see vindictiveness and blood! As soon as they smell blood, they will rush up and eat it! Therefore, the lakes where this kind of fish are generally found are places where people stay away! Let's go and see it in a while, as long as they don't get too close, there is no problem. Lautoya clearly understood Turry's intentions. A faint introduction.
From the beginning, Turry had planned to go and see the piranha. Turry rarely went out of Ebilis until he was twenty years old, so he was slightly less knowledgeable than the others.
"Captain, do you have some clue about the puzzle?" Quinta asked about the quest puzzle.
"Not at all, but if you look around and see it, you might find something. 'Thunderstorm night, moonlight, golden dinner' This thunderstorm night should be the night of this thunderstorm forest, and it is easy to understand under the moonlight. The key is this last sentence. And this last sentence should be the answer! Unravel this last sentence, and you will be able to complete this task!" Toury affirmed.
"And this time the mission is in no particular order, there is no ranking. As long as it is completed within the allotted time. In this case, of course, the sooner it is done, the better. We'll have some time to go somewhere else. Turry continued.
When everyone entered the village, the elves of the village must have been summoned. Knowing that these young human beings are from the Void Slash Academy. When passing by each house, everyone greeted Turry and the others in a friendly manner. Turi and the others all responded with a smile.
Along the way, everyone also discovered some strange things. It was like the animal bones on the roof, the bacon-like food hanging at the door, and the plant that looked like an unripe condiment in front of each house. The whole village is in a state of slash-and-burn farming.
"A glittering dinner should have something to do with food! Turi pointed to the food passages hanging in front of each house.
After a few inquiries, I found out that this is the kind of meat called "rain fox" that the elves love to eat. Hung in front of the door is to exude the kind of sao aura on the rain fox.
Lottos walked to an unoccupied treehouse, picked some small particles from the plants planted at the door, put them under his nose and sniffed, "This is 'Nama grass'." Condiment indeed. The kind that elves love. Also, I said how I smelled a faint smell of sao as soon as I entered the village, it turned out to be a rain fox! This thing is also very delicious when baked after being coated with the seeds of this nama grass!One of the elves' favorite food!" affirmed Lautos, who has studied food deeply.
"And what about the bones?" asked Turi, gesturing to the bones of some beasts placed on the roof.
"This is a symbol of the prowess of the elves!The more powerful the person, the more bones there are on the roof!Look! it must be Rong's home!" Lautoa gestured to a room perched on a tree, and the room was covered with the skulls of unknown beasts.
Huge gray skeletons cover the entire thatched house, and if you don't walk into it, it's just a "bone house......
Everyone nodded affirmatively. Rong's strong strength has been personally understood! And this house with the most beast bones doesn't need to be guessed, it must be Rong's home!
However, just as everyone looked at Rong's room in amazement, there was a sudden exclamation in the distance! It was a female voice.
"Ah......h
The screams shook everyone's bodies!
Coincidentally, they quickly ran towards the end of the village. That's where the sound comes from!
And the voice sounded like Velena's voice......
