"When the Ice Witch didn't appear, she should be hiding in the forest, could it have something to do with that forest elf?" After Lin Jiu and Honglian exchanged information, Honglian guessed.

"I'll find out when the time comes. However, if this time passes, it is estimated that there will be no gain. Lin Jiu looked at the rising sun outside the window, it was obviously not a good time to track down the Ice Witch.

"You can go and meet the forest elf first." Red Lotus suggested.

Lin Jiu naturally had no reason to refuse, just so he could go over and step on the point first, the side quests he accepted totaled thirty-six hours, if he didn't see the target that night, he would throw an Apollo fireball into the forest to see how the Ice Witch hid.

"You go to the royal city first to see the situation, and I'll go to the forest." Lin Jiu asked Honglian to sneak into the royal city first to inquire about the news, and the matter on the side of Mace Town was handed over to him to deal with. Red Lotus naturally didn't have any opinions, if it was an enemy that Lin Jiu couldn't resist, he would be almost the same if there was one more.

The biggest role of the existence of red lotus is multi-line development. Lin Jiu and they wouldn't waste this advantage. Red Lotus infiltrated the royal capital for two purposes, one was a magic mirror fragment, and the other was a puppet message. If there were no clues for the two, Red Lotus would not continue to stay here, but would completely separate from Lin Jiu.

The two of them explore in different directions in order to explore the world more in the same amount of time.

The clamor in the streets is getting louder and louder, and the town of Metz is no longer as quiet as it is at night. Hayashi Jiu left the hotel and approached the forest on the edge of the small town of Metz.

Halfway through, Lin Jiu also found out the information about this forest. This forest is called Ayala, and due to the blessing of the forest spirits, it is rich in species and lush forests.

But I don't know when people have never seen forest spirits again, and there are many more monsters in the Ayala forest that they have never seen before. In the past, the royal capital still sent people to clean up these monsters, but as the situation of the doppelganger's lack of skills became more and more serious, no one from the royal capital came to the Ayala Forest to clean up the monsters.

Gradually, the town of Metz simply put up a cordon close to the forest, allowing the guards to patrol more. No resident dared to enter the Ayala Forest, which is now full of monsters and dangers.

There is speculation that the forest elves have been killed and that the forest has been overrun by evil creatures. There are also people who believe that the forest spirits have been corrupted by demons and have lost their minds. In any case, no one can deny that the Ayala Forest is no longer a place for ordinary people to set foot in.

"Speaking of which, I haven't met the mayor of Metz yet." Lin Jiu looked at the warning sign on the edge of the Ayala Forest, and suddenly realized that he had indeed never seen the mayor here in the small town of Metz, which was not very large.

Serving as the mayor of a small town "at the foot of the Son of Heaven" is certainly not a simple identity, but it is also a source of intelligence. Lin Jiu felt that after he had dealt with the Ice Witch, he could talk to the mayor of the town. Maybe the mayor of the town knows the details of the prince's incident that the archmage Figas doesn't know.

"Whew~" to the edge of the forest, the rolling out can't help but imagine that the mayor of Metz Town is actually a black magic fairy who secretly cultivates black magic, lurking in the shadows, waiting for the opportunity to rise up and overthrow the demon fairy...... Ahem, Dussay Kingdom.

"To overthrow the Demon Immortals... Phew, wouldn't it be better to have the Dusai Kingdom, and there are still handles that we can handle, and we don't even need to use gold bricks. Lin Jiu smiled and walked into the Ayala forest with the rolling.

After entering the Ayala Forest, Lin Jiu also clearly felt the immersion of this forest. Compared to the forest on the edge of the fireworks town, which is very active, this forest is obviously much darker, with dense trees, but no life at all. There's a forest feel like you're outside Wolf Castle.

"Is this the monster in the forest?" Lin Jiu wandered in the forest for a while, and it didn't take long for him to notice some creatures approaching him. After showing up, it can be seen that this is a group of people who look like dead trees as a whole, with a crooked appearance, and they are attacking Lin Jiu with teeth and claws.

"Roar!" Rolling roared and turned into a giant bear. These miscellaneous soldiers didn't even need Lin Jiu to make a move, they turned into giant bears and spat out the fire in their mouths, wielding huge bear paws, and easily slaughtered these monsters.

"Roar!" Just as they were slaughtering the monsters and roaring that they were all garbage, a figure in the Ayala Forest noticed the long-lost outsiders in the forest.

did not act rashly, but manipulated more forest monsters to flock to the two outsiders of one man and one bear to tempt.

Lin Jiu and Rolling also saw all kinds of monsters, including entangled vine monsters, twisted tree spirits, distorted animals, and so on. Lin Jiu naturally sensed that someone was manipulating these monsters behind the scenes, and he didn't make a move, so he could solve the monsters by rolling.

It's just a monster tree spirit, and it's not a twisted tree spirit in the Rune Continent, it's rolling and exploding.

"It looks like we've caught a big fish." Lin Jiu keenly felt a chill enveloping him, and his right hand was already gripping the hilt of the Dawn Sparrow's sword.

White snowflakes mixed with ice crystals fell from mid-air into the forest. Ice and snow suddenly enveloped their area, and with this kind of forced character, except for the Ice Witch, Lin Jiu couldn't think of any guys.

The figure that appeared in front of Lin Jiu had a beautiful face, wearing a long blue and white dress, and a crown inlaid with red gems on his head. According to Figas, this is what Sophie looks like, except that the figure in front of her is pale and there is no trace of emotion in her blue eyes.
