Chapter 145: The Tree on the Lake, the City on the Tree
Chapter 145
β...... I can't describe it in words that I scarce, the magnificent beauty of the forest and the delicate beauty of the elves come together harmoniously and naturally, and I love this place. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info" Karl muttered.
"The third chapter of "Travels in Heaven". Alexia was also shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of her, and subconsciously continued when she heard Carl's words, "I can understand Hugo's feelings." β
"Skywalker's Travels" is the travel diary of the legendary magician who loved to travel, and at the end of the book is a travelogue about the introduction of the plane.
A white wolf suddenly sprang out of the woods and pounced on Amani, and Alexia subconsciously pulled out her weapon.
"Please don't hurt it. Amani hurriedly stopped, "It's my friend Xiaobai, there is no malice." β
Alexia looked at the white wolf more than a meter tall suspiciously, and sure enough, after the white wolf pounced on Amani, rubbed her legs, and circled around Amani, occasionally making a whine or two.
"Xiaobai is asking who you are. Amani explained to Alexia.
Then he crouched down and said a few words to the white wolf in elven language, and the white wolf whined and quickly ran away.
"How did it run. Levy, who didn't know when he came back, said strangely, "What did it just say?"
"Xiaobai said that it will inform the other wolves in the forest not to attack you. Amani explained.
"What are you holding in your hands?" asked Alexia, staring at the fuchsia fruits in Levi's hands.
Levi shrugged his shoulders, picked one up and bit it: "Woo, the taste is sweet and slightly sour, and the taste is a little sandy, which is not bad." β
"How can you pick it up and eat it, aren't you afraid of being poisoned?" Alexia exclaimed.
"Several elven villages have planted this fruit tree in large quantities, and it will not be poisonous. Levi said with a thumbs up.
Amani explained to Alexia, "Don't worry, this is the fruit of the dragon's perch, this fruit is the main food of our elves, and it is not poisonous. β
Alexia breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Levy.
"What are you looking at me for?" Levi said inexplicably.
"Give me one, stupid!"
After entering the inner ring of the forest, the four elven rangers were visibly relaxed, and their steps became brisk.
The cries of birds rang out from time to time, and small animals often popped up from behind the trunks to peep at three humans they had never seen before, but they did not seem to be afraid of life.
A white bird with a snow-white and red beak landed in Alexia's hand, and the maiden happily fed it with a small nut, and the sound of silver bells of laughter and crisp birdsong floated through the trees.
Levi silently followed Alexia, nibbling on a cylindrical cylindrical fruit, passing by and picking another one if he saw something he hadn't seen before.
Karl was fanatically pulling Fighill to ask questions, and when the elf girl said a word, he wrote it down in his notebook, and the quill pen scribbled and fine handwriting on the notebook. From time to time, I have to stop to do some sampling.
β...... I have never seen such a wonderful existence, most of the spirits that exist in the world can be classified as undead, I can only feel the power of death on their bodies, but these tree spirits are full of vitality. β
"These trees are more than 1,000 years old...... 1,300 years, how do you know? Can you talk to the trees? Can you help me ask how the inner ring of the Elven Forest was formed?...... It's a shame that it doesn't know. β
"This gray fungus...... Isn't this the Dusky mushroom that became extinct three hundred and forty-six years ago, I'm going to collect a little sample in a minute. β
"The animals here seem to be friendly to humans, why...... Is Nirihomme the goddess of the forest or the great tree of eternity?...... It's all, well, what you said is too mysterious, I don't understand it. β
β......β
Surrounded by a relaxed atmosphere, the three humans and four elves quickly crossed the friendly forest and arrived at the shores of the Elven Lake.
If Carl hadn't stopped several times to do the work, they would have taken less time.
The bridge is more than 20 meters wide and hundreds of meters long, the bridge deck is slightly arched upward, the railing is made of dark green arm-thick vines to weave a complex and beautiful pattern, the hand can feel the vigorous life and the vicissitudes of history, the bridge pier is a column-like aquatic plant, regularly distributed at the bottom of the wood and stone bridge, supporting the weight of this huge building.
From time to time, people passed by Carl and the others, looking at them curiously, not only elves, but also centaurs and druids.
Walk across what the elves call the bridge called Senkarusente, but this end of the bridge is not on the shore, but in the middle of the city, seamlessly connected to a drawbridge.
Isha, the city of elves.
The elves often lived in the forest for a long time in mixed with other races, planting an ancient tree that grew extremely fast, and living in the trunks of these magical ancient trees, which Karl learned later.
In addition to the Eternal Tree in the center, the island in the middle of the lake is also home to a large number of magical ancient trees.
The city was built about twenty or thirty meters above the ground by these towering trees, and the whole city was connected by suspension bridges, which were formed by a tangle of magical vines and planks in the middle, stronger than the strongest stone bridges.
The druids worked at sunrise and sunset, but the centaurs had the opposite routine, they loved the brightly lit bazaars and installed lights on the drawbridgesβa lily of the valley with huge buds like lanterns that glowed at night.
But more often than not, the thick vines that swirled upwards led to the skies above the city, the bazaars of various tribes, and the nests of some giant eagles.
The green-haired, white-skinned Dryads and the purple-haired, dark-skinned Night Elves also had opposite routines, just like their centaurs and druid neighbors.
The druids have been allied with the eagles for centuries.
As Carl and Ranger Captain Amani and his party slowly made their way up the green vines, he saw these birds of prey flying up and down with an astonishing wingspan between the huge tree trunks.
The huge canopy of trees acts like their clouds, allowing them to shuttle between these green clouds.
At intervals there is a majestic centaur guard in full steel armor, and this powerful hoplite soldier is even more powerful than the elite knights of most of the Empire's active legions.
Most of the elves are lightly armoured and carry bows and arrows with short swords at their waists, but there are also heavily armored swords.
There used to be a joke about why elves are good at bows and arrows, and some people say that elves are too thin to fight head-on - but in reality a good archer requires far more strength and physique than a swordsman.
"I will take you to the Silver Moon Palace, which is also the Queen's palace. Amani led the way.
All three of her team members left after entering Isha.
Carl also left the team temporarily, and the negotiation of this kind of thing only needs to be handed over to the captain, and the team members don't have to go, and Levi has to follow because he also has the status of a diplomatic ambassador and has his own job.
"Meet Her Majesty directly, you are really neat. Levi whistled.
Amani said, "I'm sorry for the lack of etiquette, Mr. Reinhardt. β
"No, I still prefer this straightforward style. Levi looked down from the drawbridge, "I also like the architecture here. β
