In this regard, Leo could only smile, and then honestly looked ahead, no longer looking left and right, but the various curiosity in his heart was not satisfied, which still made him feel a little unhappy.

After another hundred meters of progress, a huge tree hole appeared in front of Leo's eyes, and several heavily armed moon elves were waiting there.

Seeing the patrol returning and catching a human, one of the guards immediately greeted them and asked, "Captain Leahmel, what's going on?"

Liamel replied, "This human was caught at the edge of the forest and looks suspicious. Send for Elder Surion now, and we'll identify him in the prayer room. ”

Hearing that it was suspicious, the guard didn't say anything more, nodded, and ordered his men to act.

Leamel, on the other hand, walked straight into the hollow of the tree, apparently to take Leo to the prayer room.

As soon as he entered the tree hole, Leo realized that there was a huge space inside, and there was a staircase that I don't know if it was naturally formed or carved the day after tomorrow, which could be used by the moon elves to climb above the trees.

Progressing upwards along the solution, Leo felt like he had walked at least twenty or thirty floors before he stopped, entered another passage, and came to the exterior of the Tree of Life.

Here, countless broad branches stretch outward, like streets. And on each branch, there are countless wooden houses.

At this moment, many moon elves have not rested, and when they see this group of people, they all cast curious eyes.

Without saying a word, Liamel walked on, through a long branch, to a large wooden house.

A moon elf male of no apparent age was already waiting there, he also had a very perfect face, and he was wearing a robe made of unknown materials, soft and snuggly. It gives a very elegant feel.

The moon elf male's gaze naturally fell on Leo, and he said, "Leahmel, is this the suspicious person you are talking about?"

"Yes, Elder Surien. Liamel nodded in response.

Elder Surion nodded, then turned his gaze to the raw Illidia, and continued to ask, "What about this druid?"

As soon as the words fell. Leo was suddenly surprised.

Without transformation, it will be difficult for others to discover the true identity of the druid. But this moon elf was able to determine it just by taking a casual glance, which showed that its strength was definitely beyond his imagination.

"The race of the Moon Elves is really blessed, and any person who appears has this kind of strength. Leo secretly sighed.

He knew very well that although the Moon Elves had low fertility, their development was also very slow. But there are no so-called civilians among them.

This race naturally has a special bloodline, and only by slowly learning and mastering it can it have unfamiliar power. In other words, with a little training, almost everyone in the Moon Elf can become a professional. And their royal family is a top bloodline with a legendary level, and every member of the royal family has a strong strength.

Such a situation. It is unthinkable among humans.

While Leo was thinking, Leah Meer replied softly, "They're together." You also know that not all of us ......"

Elder Surion interrupted Liamel with a sudden wave of his hand, and then pushed the door open, "Come in, let me have a good talk with this human friend." ”

…………

The wooden house is big but simply furnished. With a few ornaments, it gives a natural beauty.

And in the deepest part of the wooden house, there is a wooden statue.

It was the image of a female moon elf, with a blurred face, and Leo looked at it. Suddenly, I felt like I wanted to bow and worship. He could guess without asking, it was the image of the goddess of the blue moon, for the prayers of the faithful.

At this moment, he and Illidia had been untied and were sitting on a wooden chair, with the Valkyrie standing behind them, like stone statues.

Leamel and several of the patrol members did not enter the cabin, but left on their own, which shows that they have absolute trust in Elder Surion's strength, and do not believe that Leo can make any resistance.

In fact, Leo really doesn't have this kind of thinking, and it is better not to use violence than to explain things clearly, not to mention that the use of violence is not necessarily effective.

On the other side, Elder Surion carefully examined what he had taken out, which contained the identification documents of the Calente Empire and the Council of Magic, the student ID of the Riveton School of Magic, the access permit of the Holy Urion Kingdom, and the pass of the Orc tribe of Ogoma.

These things don't mean anything to the elves, and it's easy to forge them, but that's all Leo has.

Elder Surion looked at it very seriously, and only raised his head after a while: "In other words, you have traveled tens of thousands of kilometers to the Supreme Forest to find your friend here? ”

Noticing that the other party did not question it, and seemed to believe his identity, Leo was completely relieved and replied, "To be exact, my fiancée." ”

Elder Surion smiled understandingly and asked, "But why did she come here?"

"It's to avoid being pursued. ”

"Who's chasing and killing?"

Such a question made Leo hesitate for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you about this without her permission." ”

After all, it was related to Isha's life, and even if he was already in the Supreme Forest, he didn't want to say more, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Elder Surion hummed noncommittally, but did not continue to ask.

Seeing that he didn't move for a long time, Leo had to ask tentatively, "Then ...... me?"

"Of course, there is no problem with your identity, and the Supreme Forest welcomes you. Elder Surrion seemed to come back to his senses, "With such a young human mage and the trust of our druids, I'm sure you're not lying. Be cautious when using magic, though, as it seems to us to be a distortion of nature. ”

"Thank you, I see. Leo replied sincerely. People are under the eaves. had to bow his head, and now even if the other party asked him not to use magic, he could only agree to it.

Seeing that Leo was recognized, Illidia also breathed a sigh of relief, and the agreement was completed, and he planned to go to the royal court with Leo. Report back to the guide on what you've learned along the way.

Now that the innocence has been confirmed, the conversation between the two sides has naturally become easier. Leo suddenly realizes that Elder Surion is kind and funny, which is completely inconsistent with the rumored arrogance and contempt of the elves for other races.

He seemed to be very willing to understand the outside world, and kept asking the two of them to tell what they had seen and heard along the way, sometimes worried, sometimes laughing.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed. Elder Surion saw the tiredness in the expressions of the two of them, and said with a smile, "Thank you for the experience, it made me feel like I was there, it was really an exciting adventure. Hehe, if I were hundreds of years younger, I would definitely want to embark on such an adventure, young man, I should go out and see more.

He got up from his seat. "As an apology for taking you into custody, I will arrange the best rest environment for you. Alas. There's been so much going on lately, otherwise I'd really like to talk to you guys again. Finally, I wish you all the best for your next journey. ”

Hearing him say this, Leo suddenly remembered the whispers of the guards just now.

This matter is likely to concern Isa, and he has to pay attention.

Without Leo's eyes, Illidia had already taken the initiative to ask with concern, "Elder Surien." What's going on in the forest lately?"

"Yes, something did happen. Elder Surion didn't shy away from anything, and continued, "There has been a spate of disappearances recently, and the number has reached eighteen. ”

"Do you know who did it? Could it be the barbarians of the West and the North?" asked Illida.

Although they have just suffered a misunderstanding, they are all their own people after all. Maybe it will also implicate people he knows, so he is also very worried.

"Barbarians, barbarians of the northern glaciers?" Leo chimed in.

Illidia shook her head and said, "No, the barbarians are just one branch of your human race, but the barbarians are another race. ”

Leo suddenly remembered a race he had seen in books, and subconsciously said, "You mean those Veku people who call themselves sons of the Titans?"

Elder Surion glanced at Leo in surprise, as if he didn't expect him to know this.

Illidia said, "That's right, these hateful creatures are entrenched in the Dragonfall Islands off the coast to the northwest, and rely on their superb seafaring ability, often sneaking into the outer forests to capture our people as slaves. ”

Leo had never met a Veku before, and all he knew was from books.

Indeed, this intelligent race is a nation of extreme savagery, treating all other races as inferior races, capturing and enslaved whenever they have the opportunity.

They have blue skin, excellent water resistance, and each of them is a warrior, the strongest of them, and can even reach a height of three meters.

Some say that the Viku are demon worshippers, while others say that this race has its own hidden true gods.

It's just that because of the impassable sea, which is not only quite dangerous, but also unprofitable, the human world has no desire to understand this race, and the information that has been obtained is pitiful.

Elder Surion shook his head and said, "Judging from the information we have so far, it is not a Viku. They can generally operate only in the coastal zone, and as we have strengthened coastal defense over the years, they have not appeared for a long time. This time, the area where the disappearance occurred was inland, so it couldn't have been done by the Viku. ”

"Any clues?" asked Illidah.

Elder Surion replied with a solemn expression, "The murderer's methods are very strange, and there are hardly any traces left. We only slightly detected demonic energy, and it seems that the perpetrator has some relationship with the demon, but not exactly the demon. ”

With such an answer, Illidia was even more puzzled: "Strange, although demons are tyrannical, they are often not cunning, how can there be no clues?"

"Yes, that's where we're weird too. Elder Surion sighed.

Plundering the population...... Strange whereabouts...... Demonic Breath ...... These traits gradually converged in Leorio's mind.

In fact, Elder Surion didn't think that Leo and Illidia could help much, but only felt that the two of them might encounter danger on the way to the royal court, so he didn't hide anything, also so that they could be more vigilant.

Looking at the hourglass in the prayer room, it was almost time for the Luna cultists to perform their night prayers, and Elder Surion planned to find someone to take Leo and Illidia to rest.

But before he could speak, he found that the human male in front of him was looking thoughtful.

Leo did think of something, and a strange figure was converging in his mind.

Thinking more and more likely, he looked at Illidia and said, "Could it be the one who was shot by Bullock?"

"You mean......" Illitya's eyes widened suddenly, "it's him!

"Who?" said Surion's heart raced at the change between the two.

Do they really know the identity of the perpetrators?

Leo knew that the matter was very important, and quickly explained, "Didn't we tell you just now that we once entered the tomb of the orc sword master?"

"Yes, although that orc swordmaster is a vulgar orc, his actions are still worthy of our admiration. Surion replied, still not understanding what Leo was trying to say, and motioned for him to continue.

Leo said patiently, "In the tomb, we met several people from the Darkmoon Church, one of whom was a demon warlock. ”

At this moment, Surion finally reacted: "You mean, that demon warlock is the perpetrator?"

Leo was sure of this, so he replied, "This is just my speculation after comprehensive analysis, and he does have a certain possibility. We don't know exactly what happened, but there is no doubt that the man has gained the inheritance of the Demon High Lord, killed his companions, and finally escaped through strange means. ”

After a pause to allow the other party to follow his train of thought, Leo continued: "As far as I know, the internal control of the Darkmoon Church is very strict, and his behavior will inevitably be hunted down by the Church with all its might. ”

"So, the Supreme Forest, where the Darkmoon Church can't extend into its tentacles, may be a good hiding place. Before that, he had been seriously injured, and if he wanted to recover as soon as possible, it would be a good decision to sacrifice his body directly, and it was also what he did best. ”

After saying this, there was a sudden silence in the prayer room. Knowing that the elder was thinking, both of them remained quiet and waited patiently. (To be continued......)
