Chapter Seventy-Seven: Danger Comes from Humans
"Let me walk with you a little longer!" said Fiona, who trotted up to Renon and took his hand.
"It's an honor!"
"Oh! I can't see that this kid Rainon has two hits!" Christine said, leaning against one of them, turning her face sideways to look at Fiona and Rainon's vanishing backs, "It's good to be young!"
"Ruinon......" With a slight wave of Patriarch Shalong's hand, a crystal ball popped out of the space bag, and warm pictures flashed in the sphere, and Shalong's cold face eased.
"Patriarch Sharong, you ......" Christine noticed a subtle change in Shalon's heart.
"Ahh......h They're already far away, so let's go back! By the way, Philip, you take a team of people to the valley lake to check the water quality there, and come back as soon as possible to report to me. β
"Yes!" replied Philip cleanly.
"Sisters, turn on the illusion circle again, and then disperse!" After speaking, the Shalong patriarch looked down at the crystal ball in his hand again, and pinched it painfully. She thought to herself: elves and humans...... Reckless, I think in the near future, maybe you can help us find that answer......
While Sharon was pondering, Philip crept up to Christine and asked, "What's wrong with her, Patriarch?" β
Christine patted Philip on the shoulder and said, "You men will never understand a woman's mind. Sometimes love is hate, and hate is love! Do you know about the patriarch's daughter?"
"I heard the damn slave traders took it......" said Philip, the knuckles of the knuckles of the bow turned slightly white from the exertion.
"That's hate! But have you ever heard of Sharon's husband?"
"This ...... It seems like I've never seen it, and I've never even heard of it. Philip said with a puzzled expression.
"It's normal not to see it, because he's dead. That was before you were born, and he was killed by human slave traders to protect his daughter. Christine whispered in Philip's ear, "There's another secret you must not tell the other elves, that the husband of the Patriarch Sharon is human. β
The explosive gossip of "this ......" left Philip dumbfounded.
"Because the husband of the Sharong patriarch is a human, the father and daughter are not wary of humans at all. But who knew that the human expeditions they encountered in the Black Forest were abominable slave traders...... It's too late after the accident. On the one hand, the Sharong patriarch loved the humans deeply, and on the other hand, he hated them deeply. The reason why she agreed to Ruinon's conditions this time, and was even willing to let him go back, was because of what Renon said in the hall. Just like him back then, it's really too similar. They say the same naΓ―ve things. Saying that, Christine's heart was a little heavy, "Love and hate are human beings...... Sharon Iluvita Mopra, what would you choose?"
After leaving the village of Kawa, Rainon and Fiona strolled hand in hand through the Black Forest, a black unicorn quietly following them, its hooves tapping without making a sound.
"You're too quiet, it's time to say something to her. "Nightmare talks to Renon through his psychic powers.
"Well, you have a point, you can't be embarrassed like this forever. Renon nodded in agreement, so he asked, "Fiona, I've always been curious, what is the relationship between the Flower of Life and your Elven Clan's Ancient Tree of Life?"
"Can't you ask some questions that can adjust the atmosphere, like your hobbies, your favorite food, or whatever!" the nightmare roared in Ryanon's mind as if she were mad at the first hearing.
The nightmare's roar caused a headache for Rainon. Seeing this, Fiona grabbed Ruinon and asked worriedly: "Ruinon, you have nothing to do, your face is so bad!"
"It's fine! It's just that I'm a little tired from fighting with a certain animal before. No big deal. You haven't answered my question yet!"
"Damn, and you still talk about me? Why do you keep talking about this useless issue? If you want to know the truth, I can tell you. Nightmare continued to scream.
"O Flower of Life! It is connected to the rhizome of our Elven Ancient Tree of Life, and can provide ...... for the Ancient Tree of Life," Fiona began to introduce to Rainon as she walked.
"Damn! I've been in the Black Forest for so many days, not to mention that I haven't found a single shit flower in the Flower of Life, except for trees and trees, or a group of ferocious monsters!" Wearing chain mail? Is he a warrior? No, he holds a beautifully carved staff in his hand, and he's a magician. Judging by the fact that he abandoned his light robes in favor of heavy chain mail, he should have been an experienced candidate.
"Don't complain, Maxim, it's good that we survived, and there's still a lot of time to spare. To his left stood a thin man, speaking lazily.
"There are still a lot of times, there are only two lakes marked on the map, but do you know how much time it takes to get from Lake Glen in the northwest to Lake Neckar in the northeast? Even an expedition with standard equipment would take three weeks to walk, to say the least, and if you encounter any powerful monsters along the way, it may take a lot of time. Where do we have so much time?" Maxim yelled like a frenzy, "we don't have time, we all blame some terrible monster on the valley lake, but judging from the evil energy emitted by that flame, it is impossible to find the flower of life in the valley lake." β
"You haven't even looked into it, how do you know that you can't find the Flower of Life?" sat a woman in a gorgeous robe next to the thin man, holding a small wooden comb and combing her coffee-colored hair. She complained as she brushed it: "What is this called a broken forest, I can't even see a stream, and my hair hasn't been washed for days." β
"I'm asking you Jennifer, are you strong enough to resist that flame? If that monster hadn't gone far, we'd all be dead. Don't think about washing, thank God you didn't die of thirst in the Black Forest. The thin man waved his wand and said, "Maxim, you are the most experienced of the three of us, what do you think we should do now?"
"Go back and wait for the rabbit on the road to the exit of the Black Forest. β
"What? you mean we ......" Hearing Maxim's words, Jennifer's face suddenly turned a miserable white.
"Robbery, interesting, how did you come up with such an idea, aren't you afraid of breaking the rules?" asked the thin man with a wicked smile.
"Sasri, what do you think is a good way to do it now? You can't go to Lake Glen, and we don't have enough time to go to Lake Neckar, where can we go to find the Flower of Life?, and is there a rule that you can't rob during the exam?" Maxim asked Sasri with a smile.
