Chapter 45: The Victims Come to Defect
Ursula wanted to speak and stopped, but after seeing You Yuan's determined eyes, he continued:
"Later, I took advantage of the victory and pursued it all the way to the lair of the fishmen. I thought there would definitely be more fishmen out there, so I could continue to use them to hone myself. However, what I didn't expect was that when I walked into the village, I saw piles of fish-man corpses, and there was not a single living person in the entire fish-man village. ”
You Yuan was very surprised when he heard this, but he didn't interrupt her. Ursula paused for a moment and continued:
"The scene is very tragic, although the swordsman does not have the sensitive perception ability of your wizards, but as high elves, we are born with the ability to sense different breaths and energies in nature, of course, to a certain extent, and cannot be compared with professionals who specialize in this field. I didn't sense the breath of the living at the time, so I wanted to search the village, thinking that maybe something would happen.
I found a flag in a square, I could feel the energy fluctuations on it, and I guessed that it might be a meaningful object, so I wanted to take it. The flag was planted on a small platform, and I pulled it down with a little effort. But what I never expected was that the bad luck began. ”
You Yuan's emotions fluctuated with her words, but fortunately, Ursula did not sell it, took a deep breath and continued:
"The strange thing is that I can't put that flag in the storage bag anyway, I tried again and again, and when I finished reciting the storage law seven times on the ground, the flag seemed to suddenly have its own consciousness, and then I saw with my own eyes that black smoke gradually drifted out from above, and these smoke gradually gathered, and finally became the resentful spirit."
At this point, You Yuan finally knew the origin of this black shadow, but he still listened to Ursula tell the whole story.
Later, as soon as the Black Shadow came out, he began to attack her, and as soon as she fought, Ursula felt that she was no match for the Black Shadow, so she began to flee back, and she even changed into a sprint boot with an acceleration function, but she still couldn't shake it off.
She was attacked by several black shadows' spells along the way, but fortunately, under her dodge, she didn't hit the vital parts, until she ran near the sawmill, and the injuries were already very serious, and the last serious injury was the black shadow's leg.
You Yuan and Ursula returned to the territory together, and they came to Hugo's room together, Hugo's face was still not good at this time, sitting on the edge of the bed, listening to You Yuan relay to him what Ursula said. You Yuan also mentioned that he had encountered the black shadow twice before, the first time was on the way to help him unlock the seal, and both times it was this resentful spirit.
Hugo shook his head imperceptibly: "I don't think what you encountered before may be today." ”
After saying that, he looked at Ursula, "I wonder if your people have ever told you about the fall of the upper elves?" When I went out today, I just in time for it to cast a spell, and the energy characteristics of the spell are basically the same as those of the fallen upper elves, they are called resentful spirits. ”
After speaking, he looked at You Yuan again: "You wizards naturally use their spiritual power to sense elemental fluctuations, so as to identify whether they are the same fluctuation frequency, that is, whether the breath you often say is the same." The reason why you think this one is the same as the last two times you saw it is because they all have the same elemental fluctuation frequency.
But you may not know that the energy of the resentful spirits all comes from desire, so they all have only one elemental fluctuation, which means that even if they are not the same, their fluctuation frequency is the same, and they cannot distinguish each other, only strength and weakness. ”
For You Yuan, this passage is very informative, "I see, so it's very likely that today's one is not the same as the two I met before?" ”
Hugo nodded.
Ursula said slowly, "It is possible that my people have deliberately hidden this history, in short, in the more than six thousand years of my existence, I have never heard of a fallen upper elf. ”
Hugo was thoughtful and did not speak.
The three of them suddenly fell silent, and You Yuan suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Ursula, is that flag still there?" ”
Ursula shook her head: "It came out of my hand when it started to smoke, and I've been running away since then, not caring about anything else." ”
You Yuan intended to visit the fish-man village, but the security of the territory was obviously more important now.
He also wanted to ask Hugo about his physical condition again, but suddenly heard Dawang shouting "Lord" in the courtyard, You Yuan couldn't get up and leave, and Ursula followed.
As soon as Dawang saw You Yuan, he went straight to the point: "Lord, the people from Ma Village are here, outside the gate!" ”
"Oh? How many people are coming? You Yuan asked as he walked towards the gate.
"It's a lot, it looks like something has happened, and I said that I want to ask the lord for help." Dawang also said as he walked.
Ursula followed behind Youyuan, and the three of them came to the gate of the territory together, and sure enough, a large group of men, women, and children stood there with umbrellas in their backpacks, all with sad faces on their faces, and some secretly wiping their tears.
You Yuan glanced at the crowd and walked towards the village elder Zhou who was standing in front of the team.
"Village Chief Zhou, what's wrong with you?" You Yuan asked puzzled.
Before Lao Zhou could speak, two lines of old tears came down, and he knelt down tremblingly: "My lord, save our village!" Woo woo ......" said and began to cry in a whimper, and the crowd of people behind him also cried and cried.
You Yuan had a guess in his heart, stretched out his hand to help Lao Zhou, and continued to ask: "Don't cry first, if there is something to talk about slowly, I will definitely help if I can help." ”
Lao Zhou hurriedly wiped the tears on his face, endured his grief and said, "Hey! Just before dawn this morning, a horde of terrible monsters attacked our village......"
It turned out to be the group of Kodo beasts, they first attacked Ma Village, trampled on and injured some villagers, and trampled down their houses a lot, and they ran out and survived. is different from Lao He's village, this time the survivors in their village are all with sharp legs and feet and good health, and those who are a little slower have not run out.
Lao Zhou also had no choice, and took the rest of these people to run to Youyuan, he felt that such a big monster was not something that ordinary people could deal with, and if he continued to stay in Macun, he would be trampled to death by them sooner or later.
Thinking about it, he remembered the young wizard who had gone to treat them last time. The last time You Yuan introduced himself as a nearby lord and detailed the location of the territory. Lao Zhou kept an eye on it at that time, thinking that he could come to the territory to exchange things or cure diseases in the future.
I never expected to come and run so soon.
You Yuan asked Dawang to call Lao He over: "These people will be handed over to you to resettle, or count the population and family situation first, and then report to me, and I will arrange housing as appropriate." Dawang is still in charge of arranging work for them. ”
The two of them should claim to be, and then You Yuan comforted these people: "Don't worry, everyone, although my territory is still in its infancy, I will never die without help, since everyone is here, it is a family, and I, as a lord, will definitely protect everyone's safety." ”
These people were grateful again, and Lao Zhou was about to kneel down and kowtow again, but was dragged by Youyuan, and at this time, a Kodo beast transporting materials happened to pass by......
