The Moon Forest is deep and dense, and the terrain is complicated, so William and the others had to abandon the big sleigh for transportation, and replaced it with a simple small sleigh, on which Millet Sha'er sat leisurely and fiddled with her little pet, greeting her brother who was dragging the sled from time to time, and then showing a sweet smile.

William's partiality and doting on the little girl made Hillen feel very unhappy, so she resolutely refused to summon the big dog as a foot force, but Yasuna also fell into the well at this time, and in the face of the little girl's pitiful little appearance, William could only be a "sled dog" in person.

The Moon Forest in front of him was dark and tangled, with a mysterious atmosphere, especially after turning a few mounds into a depression, the surroundings were so quiet that almost no sound could be heard, except for the footsteps and panting of several of them themselves. William, who gradually slowed down, couldn't help but increase his vigilance, he held a knife in one hand and a sled belt in the other hand and walked forward slowly, with the tacit understanding of Phinea to take off the Thunder Frost to protect on one side of the sled, and Yasuna also stood on the other side to protect it with interest.

As the head snake of the Half Silver Moon Alliance, Hillen was supposed to lead the way in front, but at this time she was at the back, although Hillen did not have William's outstanding sense of crisis, but the adventure life of the past years also gave her unparalleled experience, and she also found that the atmosphere around her was wrong. Hillen ran a few steps to William's side and whispered, "William! something is wrong! We may be in a bit of trouble!" The wind and waves have all come over some time ago, and a small handful of beasts in the Moon Forest are really nothing, the only thing to pay attention to is to avoid being hurt by them.

William nodded without saying a word, he suddenly stopped, half-squinted his eyes swept over the trees around him, and then stared intently at a giant tree in the distance and sneered. Seeing this, Shillen also looked at it curiously, but found nothing, and the female mage asked, "What? What did you find?"

William nodded and took out a spear from his ring, and suddenly threw it with a stomp under his feet, and the spear turned into a black light and shot at the trunk of the giant tree, and with a "stab" sound, it seemed to scratch something, and then plunged deep into the trunk.

A small area under the giant tree then distorted, and a humanoid creature in a strange cloak was half-crouching under the tree, but he didn't seem to notice that he had revealed his form, and remained motionless.

For a long time, the figure under the tree was still motionless under the noses of several people, and William and a few others were also stunned in place, staring at each other, and Hillen, who couldn't hold back a little, asked in a low voice: "Why don't you move? It won't be shot to death all at once, right?"

William shook his head and said, "No! I didn't seem to have missed that shot just now!"

Hiren, who had blessed herself with a protective spell, walked closer and looked, it was a girl, a blonde elf with green eyes and pointed ears, wearing a white invisibility cloak, she looked at the elf with rolling eyes, and turned back to William and said, "It's a moon elf!"

Lynn stared at the spear in front of her that almost brushed her eyelashes, her brain went blank, and the sudden startle made her forget the habit of shouting, and she was so stunned and thoughtless. When Arsuna's palm slapped her on the shoulder, Lin suddenly screamed loudly and unconsciously danced with her hands, startling William and the others.

Hillen looked at it for a while and joked, "No, it seems to be frightened! William!When did you learn the [Fear Technique]?" This sentence was purely a vain question, of course she understood that William didn't know any other spells except for a few types of spells created by himself.

After a few consecutive spells similar to [Remove Fear] and [Calm the Mind], the "silly" elf finally stopped screaming and trembling, her eyes began to regain focus, and when she saw clearly the "suddenly" extra few strangers in front of her, she let out a piercing scream again, and hid behind the tree like a frightened fawn.

Hillen smiled slightly and whispered softly behind the tree, "Don't be afraid, kid! We're not bad people!"

After a long while, the elf secretly poked his little head out from behind the tree and asked timidly, "Aren't you really bad people?

Before Hillen could answer, Millet Sha'er jumped out from behind William and scared with her teeth and claws: "Millet Sha'er will eat you! Bad elf! Millet Sha'er will really eat you! Millet Sha'er is a great dragon!",

The moon elf Lin was frightened when she ate the little girl, "whoosh" and shrunk back, hid behind the tree and said urgently: "Lin is a good elf! Lin is the most obedient! Don't eat Lin!"

William looked at the blatant "bully" little girl with tears and laughter, especially her complacent little appearance when she won the battle, but the little girl turned her face and pulled the corner of his clothes, and whispered in a serious voice: "William! That elf is a liar! She is actually not afraid of Millet Sha'er!"

William's heart moved when he heard this, he smiled and picked up the little girl, pinched her little face, and said, "Xiao Sha'er is really getting smarter and smarter!hahaha!" The little girl's face immediately turned into a flower when she heard this.

After some persuasion by Hillen, the "timid" moon elf Lin finally cowered and walked out of the tree, and talked incoherently about her origin: "Lin is so scared! There are terrible monsters! They caught Lin! and let Lin go! Woo woo! They want to eat Lin! It's so scary! Lin wants to go home!"

Helen frowned and asked, "Lynn, where is your home? Let's take you home!"

Lin sniffled and said, "Over there, in a small cabin by the Moon Lake! It's beautiful! But there's a monster in the way! Lin can't go back!" A terrible beast howl was heard in the distance, and the elf screamed and immediately hid behind Helen, looking around nervously, but William noticed that there was no fear in her eyes, but a strange hint of joy and hope.

Hillen turned back to a few people, "If my guess is correct, it should be beasts! According to Lynn's description, they are engaged in a 'supreme hunt'! But! how can they perform such a ritual at this time?"

"Supreme Hunting?" Hiren didn't say anything about this kind of thing when he introduced the beast man, but it was a matter of course that William didn't understand.

The Supreme Hunt is a ritual and game beloved by the bestials of Mara, the god of hunting, who indulge in their animal instincts to attack and abuse any creature that enters their territory, and they have a special name - the people of black blood. The Dark-Blooded are fanatical hunters of the Supreme Hunt, kidnapping a sapient creature and releasing it into the forest, then playing a wild game of hunting and brutally killing its prey at the end.

Although Mara's clerics only require a supreme hunt once a quarter, the Dark-Blooded usually slaughter an unfortunate person every month, but since Erasdr took control of Silvermoon City, under her and the elves of the southern part of the Moon Forest, the bestials here have rarely performed this ritual, especially after a kind female human tigerman, Myrna, took control of the most powerful tiger tribe.
