At the bedside, Albert stared at the sleeping Joanna. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He held her hand tightly, which calmed him down and allowed him to rummage through his memories.

Time passed quietly, the sun god was three-quarters gone, and the afterglow of dusk gilded the moon capital with a faint gold.

Suddenly, Albert stood up, his eyes showing excitement.

He found a way to break the Sleeping Spell, a potion recipe from one of the Dark Ages' Grand Potion Master. However, it is not easy to mix a great grandmaster-level potion, and I am afraid that there will not be more than ten great grandmasters in the entire Atlantis continent. And that's not the trickiest part, the ingredients needed for the Grandmaster-grade potion recipe are also very precious, and most of those materials are grown in dangerous areas that have been marked as dangerous areas.

Of course, Albert didn't care about danger and trouble, he only hoped that Joanna would wake up, and the rest didn't matter. "Wait for me," he whispered, not wanting to drag it out and act immediately, kissing Joanna lightly on the forehead.

One last glance at Joanna, Albert turned to leave.

His first stop was the Death Rainforest, which was not too far away, but it would take at least a week to reach by horse-drawn carriage. Albert regretted not taking Chevis with him in order to be alone with Joanna, otherwise he would have been able to fly over the Death Rainforest in the morning.

Before leaving, he found Catherine.

It took him a long time, and the buildings in the Moon Capital were almost identical.

He asks Catherine to take care of Joanna, but she wants to stay with him on the grounds that she knows the forest better than he does. Albert refused Catherine without hesitation, this was more dangerous than the previous adventures, he could die, and Catherine, the seven-star demon archer, was even more dangerous.

"Okay. Catherine said helplessly.

Although I don't want to admit it. But the gap between her and Albert is too big now, and not only can she not help, but she may also affect Albert.

"I have a good candidate. After a brief pause, she continued.

Albert opened his mouth, wanting to refuse, but thought of the sleeping Joanna. When the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back. "Tell me about it. He tells her that a guide is needed for the road idiot, but only if the guide can protect him.

"My sister, the best scout of the elves. "She should be back from the Proving Ground by now, she's a madman who's just woken up and went to mingle with people." She said dissatisfiedly, but everyone could hear the warmth in her words. "You're going to love her, she doesn't just have scout acumen. He is also a powerful martial artist. She added.

"Will she agree?" Albert asked bluntly, now was not the time to excuse himself.

"You can ask her directly. As she spoke, Catherine stood in the cabin and waved to an approaching female elf below, "Look, that's her." She told Albert.

Albert turned around, but by this time, Catherine's sister had already jumped into the treehouse ten meters above the ground. "Catherine, is this Albert?" said the elf's eyes with a fiery look. Of course, she didn't think Albert was good-looking. On the contrary, her sister describes Albert as somewhat ugly (compared to the elf). Bright red hair, such as the height of a dwarf (elves are all tall).

The traits matched, and the elf smiled.

"I'm Albert, Glad Will, beautiful young lady. Albert saluted politely.

Compared to Catherine's appearance and figure, her sister is undoubtedly much inferior. However, there is a temperament that Catherine does not have in the female elf, she looks shrewd and capable, calm like a weathered old man.

"Thank you for giving me a new lease of life, Mr. Albert. The female elf said from the heart. He bowed down and performed the greatest salute among his elven peers as a sign of gratitude to Albert, "My name is Natalie. ”

"Don't do that, Miss Natalie, Catherine and I are very good friends, and I will help her with her favor. Albert smiled and lifted Natalie up, "You don't need to thank me, and not only that, but I need your help now." He glanced at Catherine, as if complaining that the other party had told the others about his origins.

However, since it has happened, it is necessary to take care of it. He believed Catherine knew how to measure herself.

"Of course, it makes me feel better. ”

Natalie agreed without even asking, she would do anything for him. Of course, it's not okay to go too far, like, that kind of.

"Don't rush to say yes. Albert shook his head, "I'm going to the Death Rainforest, I'm sure you're familiar with it, it's dangerous." Natalie, oh, allow me to call you by your first name, you have the right to say no, and not to affect your own judgment because I have done you a small favor. ”

"I've been to the Death Rainforest more than once and I'm ready for it. Albert was answered by Natalie's determined gaze.

"Thank you. Albert nodded and looked at Catherine, "Help me take care of Joe." ”

"She's also my friend. Catherine shrugged.

※※※

Following Natalie, Albert looked around, knowing that this was not the way out of town, even though he was a road idiot. "Natalie, where are we going?" he couldn't help but say what he wanted to know most.

"A friend that, if you want to hurry to the Death Rainforest. ”

Natalie didn't look back, still searching, her memory a little blurry due to the prolonged coma.

Albert nodded, not asking.

Moments later, Natalie and Albert arrive at an exotic tavern. Of course, the building is still made of plants, not houses made of rivets and planks. In the elven realm, there is a strict system, and no one dares to easily break branches here, let alone cut trees.

"Burton, call your lady out. Natalie came to the bar and slapped the table heavily, the posture contrary to the grace of the elves, like a rude orc.

"Natalie, when did you wake up?" exclaimed the bartender at the bar, but despite this, the male elf was much better looking than Albert.

"Don't talk nonsense, go quickly, I'm in a hurry. Natalie glared and waved her hand impatiently, "Before I tear this place down." ”

Hearing Natalie's words, Albert's eyelids couldn't help but jump. He seemed to see an elven version of Charlotte, which made him a little frightened. Hopefully Natalie isn't as foul-tongued as Charlotte, he prayed.

"Who's going to demolish my bar?"

A seductive voice sounded, and a girl walked out of the corridor leading to the box.

She looked like a human, but with white wings. Wingman, a word popped into Albert's head. Natalie's friend turned out to be a winged man, and he was a little surprised.

There are many kinds of beauty, like Joanna's ethereal, Catherine's arrogance, and Natalie's heroism. However, the Wing Man in front of her is different from these, she is not very beautiful, but she can attract the attention of men the most. Charming, dark brown hair scattered at will, fair goose egg face, slightly pursed fiery red lips, and a pair of slender willow eyes under the pretty eyebrows. Lovingly.

"Natalie!" a look of surprise appeared on her delicate and charming cheeks.

The girl covered her mouth and her eyes widened, "You're finally awake!" she shouted regardless of her image, her eyes already red.

"It's me, Gabrielle, I'm alive again. Natalie shrugged.

※※※

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Albert is close to the Dead Rainforest, and that's all thanks to Gabrielle.

Of course. It's not that Gabrielle can take Albert and Natalie on flight. Winged people are not birds, they have bird wings, but their skeletal structure is more human-oriented. Therefore, it is impossible to fly for a long time, let alone carry something too heavy.

There's one treasure in Gabrielle, and that's called a solar-powered car.

Unlike carriages pulled by horse-drawn carriages or other animals, this quirky cart can walk on its own and is much faster than a horse-drawn carriage, according to Carbery. That's with the power of the sun god.

Of course, Gabrielle is also half-understood, and the only one who really understands the solar-powered car is its creator, the creator of the madman yodeler. It's a smart and stingy race. Only their patrons, the Winged Humans, can enjoy their research, and every Winged who obtains Yodelling artifacts are warned not to bring their works to the human realm, and the human ability to imitate and learn is so terrifying that even a madman can be terrified.

"Here we are. Natalie said in a deep voice, looking through the window of her car to see her surroundings.

The Filit Rainforest borders the Death Rainforest, but the environment is very different. The Death Rainforest is a twisted black tree with leaves and trunks, and from a distance, it looks like a demon with teeth and claws.

The area was once one of the Dark Lord's creations, and during the Dark Ages, the demonic aura unleashed by one of the Demon King's right-hand men polluted the forest, causing trees to mutate, and some of them to come back to life and become the forest trolls of today. The reason why the forest trolls were not banished to the underworld is because in the middle of the war, these creatures who changed from trees but did not have a wooden background betrayed the demon king and joined the alliance of the sun gods.

In addition to the forest trolls, the flower spirits and dryads who originally lived in this area have also undergone mutations, and they have been infected by the demonic aura, becoming irritable and ferocious, turning into fallen flower demons and fearful tree demons, creating panic around the world. The two earliest sapient plant beings were not expelled to the underworld, but after the death of the demon general, they regained consciousness and joined the Sun God's coalition after breaking free from control.

The Shadow Emirates of the Dead Rainforest are made up of these three races, and now there are more ogres in the Desperate Hills. The kingdom had a primitive chieftaincy system, with four great chieftains running together, but no one dared to underestimate them, not even the elves. If the three major races come out of the nest, I'm afraid that there is no kingdom in Atlantis that can compete with them.

It's just that it's absolutely impossible.

Compared to the lucky forest trolls, the Fallen Flower Demon and the Dreadtree Demon are like prisoners trapped in the Death Rainforest.

They are so polluted that they need to absorb the demonic aura that remains in the Death Rainforest to survive, and they fear the radiance of the sun god, which will dispel it. So they can only stay in the rainforest of death, from the Dark Ages to the present.

"What are you looking for, shy boy?" the driver, Gabrielle, looked back at Albert, "If you need to slow down, you'll have to tell me in advance, this thing is too fast, and I'm still a female driver." ”

"What's a driver?" Albert asked.

"Well, it's the coachman, probably. Carbelle explained casually.

Albert nodded as if he didn't understand, he didn't understand why the other party meant what he meant, of course, he didn't want to know. "We have to go to the Central, where there are Demon Flowers. He told her.

The Demon Flower requires demonic energy to survive, so it is only found in the Death Rainforest, and this plant with black petals is one of the important ingredients for concocting the antidote to the Sleeping Spell.

"Chukwaku, well, I hope you can protect me. Gabriel said pitifully, but in fact, she was a nine-star magician. However, in her words, the fight belongs to men, and yes, that's what she said. In Gabrielle's eyes, Natalie is a man, no, it should be said that she is a half-man.

※※※

"Bang dang!"

The solar-powered car, which was running smoothly, suddenly shook violently and almost rolled over, leaving Albert and Natalie startled and looking out the window in horror, not knowing what was happening outside. At this moment, Gabrielle stopped the power car.

The power car stopped, and Gabrielle said with a heavy face: "It seems that we are in big trouble, and the three Dreaded Tree Demons are blocking the way. ”

"Let me see. Albert got into the cab from the car, and the fragrance poured into his nose, but Albert didn't care about it, and looked at the three big guys fighting in front of them, as if they were snatching something. They spoke a language that even Albert didn't understand.

The Dreadtree Demon was ten meters tall, covered in a wood-shell as hard as steel and as black as ink, and had an ugly appearance, glowing red from its hollow eye sockets. Dreaded Tree Demons cannot practice magic or vitality, but they have great destructive power and superior defense, and this creature has the characteristics of a plant, has a long life, and grows infinitely. As long as it is given long enough, the Dreaded Tree Demon can even grow to a hundred meters or even higher, and its strength can reach the level of a Holy Rank powerhouse.

"Do you want to get around?" said Gabrielle, not a good idea to take a detour in the Death Rainforest.

There are many dangers here, there are many monsters living here, and it is undoubtedly safest to walk along the main road, but now that the three Dreadtree Demons are here, they don't even want to think about going there. Unless they are driven away, the three big guys all look to be over five hundred years old, which means that their strength is enough to rival the king-level powerhouses.

"That's all there is to it. Albert nodded, he wasn't far from the middle of the Death Rainforest, and he didn't want to get in trouble if it wasn't necessary.

However, just as he was about to get back into the carriage, he suddenly found a black flower in full bloom at the feet of the three big guys. The flower was like a rose, and it was like a moon, and it was not like it, but it was just as beautiful, and the black color gave the flower a strange beauty.

Devil Flower!, Albert thought to himself.
