Chapter 916: The True Black Forest

"Can't wait to block our retreat?" Leo couldn't help but smile as he looked at the tree wall behind him that had blocked it.

When Sylvia on the side heard this, she was stunned and looked at Leo in confusion, because in her eyes, there was still a road to the outside world behind her.

However, she soon realized what Leo meant, and picked up a piece of dirt from the ground and threw it hard towards the exit behind her, and the dirt flew some distance in the air, and when she was about to fly out of the Black Forest, it suddenly disappeared, and then she heard the sound of something hitting the trees in the woods not far away.

"Didn't you negotiate with Bailu?" Sylvia looked at Leo with some confusion, then pointed to the out-of-town adventurers who had disappeared at the corner of the road ahead, and said, "Why do I feel that we are no different from those guys?"

Leo didn't answer, he just raised his hand and showed the contract ring on his finger to Sylvia, only to see that the originally ordinary ring was now shining with a faint turquoise light, as if it was echoing with some kind of power.

"Since there is already an induction, but it doesn't appear, could something be wrong?" Sylvia guessed again.

Leo was silent for a moment, and then made a decision: "Let's find a place to wait for a while, if the white deer comes out, it's best, if it doesn't come out, we will follow the instructions of this ring to find him." ”

Sylvia nodded and agreed with Leo's proposal.

The two of them then walked deeper into the Black Forest, but Leo didn't use his vision to look around at this time.

Because there are so many secrets and ancient beings in the Black Forest, far more than the Epluxe Forest that Leo has ever seen, if he looks at it with his spiritual vision, he may see something that he shouldn't see, and in the end it is he who suffers.

The two continued to walk along the road to see if they could keep up with the people in front of them, but strangely enough, after turning a corner, there was no one in sight on an improvised road in front of them that led straight into the depths of the Black Forest.

Leo and Sylvia glanced at each other, didn't say anything, and continued on their way, as they went deeper, the foliage at the top of the forest became denser and denser, blocking more and more light, and it wasn't long before it was pitch black in front of them.

For ordinary people, this kind of dark environment is invisible, so it is natural to light up the lights, but lighting the lights in the Black Forest will undoubtedly look extremely eye-catching, as if telling all the carnivorous creatures in the Black Forest that the time has come to eat.

Originally, Leo and Sylvia didn't need to light the lamp, with their eyesight, even in such a dark environment, they could still see everything around them clearly, but they didn't do that, but like those ordinary adventurers, they lit the lantern hanging from their waists, and let their figures appear in an environment like the Black Forest.

After lighting the lamp, the two continued to walk forward, about an hour or so, the artificial road seemed to have reached the end, in front of it appeared a huge tree, this tree was only the root part of the tree was about the same as a five-story building, and the road just drilled through the base of the tree, and at the end was a small arched door.

Both Leo and Sylvia stopped at the great root, looked at each other, and without saying a word, went inside, and soon passed through the root and the small arch at the end, and came to an open field.

The clearing was very flat, as if it had been pressed by something, and the ground was covered with a very soft layer of velvet grass, and it felt like it was not strong to step on it.

The surrounding trees are still very tall, but the branches and leaves at the top of the trees grow strangely, because none of the branches at the top of the trees grow into the clearing, which also makes the clearing visible to the sky when it looks up.

It's just that it's very strange that at this time, Leo and Sylvia can see the sky at night, and even a little starry sky can be seen.

Although, how long they walked in the forest before, the two of them did not seriously calculate, but it will definitely not exceed two hours, according to the normal time, I am afraid that it is still morning, and it will never be the late night that they see now.

"Are we in the real Black Forest?" Sylvia said in a deep voice, looking up at the stardust in the sky.

"It should be. Leo replied, then turned to look at the huge root they had entered, which was now gone.

Before they walked through the arch under the tree root, Leo and Sylvia had sensed the strangeness of the huge root, not from the shape of the root itself, but from a different feeling, just like when they had entered the forest of luxury.

Later, when they saw the darkness in the sky, they both determined that they were probably in a space similar to the Eluxe Forest, that is, the real Black Forest.

Compared to Sylvia, Leo wasn't too surprised by what he was doing, because it wasn't the first time he had entered the real Black Forest world.

When he first entered the Black Forest, he inadvertently broke into the real Black Forest world and met the golden giant deer, the lord of the Black Forest, so everything now only deepened his memories.

"Do you feel it?" Sylvia walked a few steps in this clearing, then closed her eyes and felt it, and said, "There seems to be a force left in this clearing, a very powerful force, is there something under this clearing?"

"There shouldn't be anything special, the power you feel comes from the clearing itself. Compared to Sylvia, Leo is more sensitive to changes in various abnormal energies in the outside world, and when Sylvia felt something, he had already sensed the beginning of the anomaly in this clearing, and he also found the reason, only to see him point to the edge of this clearing and say, "Don't you think the shape of this clearing is very strange?"

"Shape?" Sylvia looked around, quickly forming an open space overlook in her mind, and said in surprise, "These are footprints? ”

Leo nodded and said, "If I didn't guess wrong, this should be the footprints left by the Golden Deer, the Lord of the Black Forest." ”

"The golden deer?" Sylvia looked around for a long time and didn't know what to say.

Although there are very few folk legends about the golden giant deer, the lord of the Black Forest, and most of the legends are purely apocryphal, so the reputation of the black forest white deer in the folk, the reputation of the golden giant deer can be said to be very small, and almost no people who specialize in the folklore history of the Black Forest do not know the name of the golden giant deer.

However, in the various classics of the Orthodox Church, there are many records of the Golden Deer, and even a data room has been set up specifically for the Golden Deer, and almost all the materials related to the Golden Deer, from , to legends, have been included in this data room.

Sylvia was very interested in the mysterious Black Forest, naturally she had read these materials, and she knew a lot about the situation in the Black Forest, and she knew more clearly how ancient the golden deer was, and she also wanted to see the oldest being, so when Leo mentioned that she had seen the golden deer, her heart was full of envy and jealousy.

Now, although it was not the golden giant deer in front of her, it was still very happy to be able to stand in the footprints left by the golden giant deer and feel the aura of the golden giant deer's power.

"It's probably no coincidence that we're here. Leo said suddenly.

Sylvia was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean that the white deer is guiding you here." ”

"Maybe!" Leo didn't say anything, he looked around and said, "There is still a remnant of the power of the golden giant deer here, the mysterious existence of the Black Forest will not approach here, let's stay here today!

Sylvia didn't object, so she and Leo quickly found a suitable place, set up a rudimentary camping tent, and then packed up their things, found some dead branches, and lit a campfire.

The two of them sat by the campfire, and they were not idle, each taking out the various items he had harvested from the royal treasury of Fran, and carefully identifying their value.

Only a few of these items belong to the kind of items with historical value, and most of the other items are all kinds of strange things, although it is not known for the time being what kind of power is hidden in these strange things, but judging from the energy fluctuations emitted by these strange things, their power should be unusual.

"This one emits the most energy. Leo quickly picked out a very quaint-looking box from this pile of strange objects, looked at it in front of him, and said: "Judging from the pattern and style on the box, it should be a box from the early First Dynasty, and the pattern on it is actually a script of the Black Forest tribe, called Tinunu, there are very few Black Forest tribes who use this script, and the most famous tribe ......" Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment, and then continued: " The most famous tribe is called Batis, and it is not only the first tribe to settle and unify the marshes of the northern Black Forest, but also ......"

"It is also a tribe that believes in the mother of the nests. Sylvia took Leo's words and said.

Unlike Sylvia, Leo's information about the Batis tribe focuses more on its role in the First Dynasty and is secondary to everything else.

At the beginning of the establishment of the First Dynasty of France, although it claimed to be the lord of the continent of Veron, there were not many territories controlled by the First Dynasty, and among the various tribes in the Black Forest, many tribes would not be much smaller than the First Dynasty, and even more than the First Dynasty's large tribes, Batis was one of them.

In the early documents handed down from the First Dynasty, it is mentioned more than once that the Batis tribe was the biggest obstacle to the empire, and it is clear that the Batis tribe was the biggest stumbling block to the First Dynasty's unification of the continent of Velon.

What happened to the Batis tribe in the end, there is no record, but it is known that the First Dynasty finally completed the unification of the Vilen continent, and all the Black Forest tribes became the aristocratic families of the First Dynasty.

But aside from these official historical materials, the Batis tribe was mentioned once in the early books of the tower wizards, but there was no specific time on it, and the Batis tribe had all perished at that time, leaving only a large number of ruins, and those ruins contained a large number of statues of the mother of the nest, so it can be judged that the Batis tribe was a Black Forest tribe that believed in the mother of the nest at that time.

Compared to the information that Leo knew, Sylvia had more information about the Batis tribe, and all of this information came from the Orthodox Church, and the information related to the Batis tribe was often accompanied by the Mother of the Nest, the number one evil god wanted by the Orthodox Church for a long time.

In those sources, there is not much written about the specific content of the Batis tribe, but it is known that because of the belief in the mother of the nest, the leader of this tribe is always a woman, and the status of women in the tribe is also very high, belonging to that extreme matriarchal clan.

The Orthodox Church conducted a very detailed study of the Batis tribe because of the mother of the nest, and got a very likely speculation, that is, the demise of the Batis tribe was not because of the war with the First Dynasty, but because of sacrifices, because of a large number of sacrifices, and finally even sacrificed themselves madly.

The Orthodox Church has sent investigating priests to the Black Forest swamps to investigate the matter of the Batis tribe, and now that the swamp gods have been absorbed into the Orthodox Church, there is more information about the various tribes of the swamp.

In these surveys, there are references to large-scale extinctions of tribes in the Black Forest swamps, and similar accounts are found among the scholars of the Frans, although the scholars and priests have different causes of these extinctions.

Scholars believe that this was due to the territorial expansion of the First Dynasty of the French Empire at that time, and that all of those tribes died at the hands of the First Dynasty, but the clergy of the Orthodox Church believe that the demise of these tribes was all related to the fact that the Batistas tribe wanted to perform an unprecedented sacrifice, and all the tribes around the swamp were captured as sacrifices by the Batiss.

Later, the Batis Tribal Altar found in the swamp by the Hanosa Coalition was sunk in the swamp and had not yet been completely destroyed, which also confirmed the priest's suspicion, because there were a large number of human bones inside and outside the altar, and most of these bones died in the same way, with their heads crushed with blunt objects.

But judging from some of the peculiar features of these human bones, these human sacrifices came from different tribes, and many of them were from the Batis tribe.

It is also because of the extremely ferocious way of human sacrifice of the Batis tribe that any transcendent items related to the Batis tribe are very dangerous.
