Chapter 235: Carrying out the task
The people in the town are all registered, and the Herag is under the name of the Ruby Chamber of Commerce, so they will not be questioned.
But if they weren't in the name of the Ruby Chamber of Commerce, they would become very suspicious and would definitely attract the attention of the elves.
Normally, the three adventurers have not returned after escorting the caravan, so what are you doing here?
There is a high probability that there is an ulterior secret.
When Herag returned to the Ruby Chamber of Commerce's inn, he found that Rhys had already cleaned up the house.
At her request, the Ruby Chamber of Commerce provided only two rooms.
David lived alone in one room, and Rees and Herag in one room.
I stayed in the carriage for a whole month, and I never slept comfortably.
Now that they have a large, fluffy bed, the two of them are naturally ready for a good night's sleep.
Of course, exercise before going to bed is naturally indispensable, and it will be a vicious battle.
Gerag was very experienced in asking the waiter to bring a few extra blankets, mainly for laying on the bed, so that things could be done.
At dusk, the three of them returned to their rooms after dinner in the hotel.
Rees hugged Herag and was about to make a move, when Herag said, "You wait for me here for a while, I'll go and finish the task first." ”
"Task? Right now? Reith was surprised.
She had observed it during the day, and it was almost impossible to enter the forest through the fence wall silently.
Elves are excellent spellcasters, and defensive spells are naturally very strong.
Rees thought that this matter still needed to be considered in the long run, and how to complete the task carefully.
Unexpectedly, Herag was ready to do a mission as soon as he came, and it was almost night.
At this time, it is too dangerous to sneak in and insert teleportation coordinates.
For now, the defense of the elves in Strange Valley is doing a good job.
Inside that fence wall, there are I don't know how many spells, even if they are first-level wizards, it is not easy to pass.
And it is almost impossible to pass without alarming the elves inside.
"Well, I'll leave now, and I'll probably be back later." Gerag said, touching the back of Reese's head.
"You ......" Rees involuntarily grabbed the corner of Herag's clothes, a little nervous.
"It's okay, I know in my heart that I won't do things that I'm not sure about." Gerag smiled confidently.
Reese was silent and did not speak, standing on tiptoe to kiss.
……
After leaving the inn, Herag made a beeline for this courtyard on the north side of town.
The courtyard was surrounded by a tall fence and a heavy iron gate was tightly closed.
Herag walked over and knocked directly on the iron door.
"Who are you? What's the matter? "A male elf who opened the door looked to be in his thirties.
"I'm looking for Bane." Herag replied.
"Do you have anything to do with Steward Bane?" The elf looked at Herag with some wariness.
Herag handed over ten gold coins and said with a smile, "Please tell Bane, I have something very important to discuss with him face-to-face." ”
The elf took the gold coin, hesitated a little, and then said, "Then you wait a minute." ”
After he finished speaking, he closed the iron door and went back to report the news.
After a while, the iron door opened again, and Bane looked at Herag with the ten gold coins in his hand, "Who are you?" ”
Herag smiled and didn't speak, but only slightly activated the bloodline mark, revealing a strange aura on his body.
This aura may be imperceptible to ordinary people, and they will not feel anything unusual.
But it's different for the elves, who are too keen to perceive this bloodline aura.
Bane looked at Herag instantly, his expression frozen.
He was just about to say something, but Herag waved his hand: "Go in and say." ”
"Good...... Good. Bane wasn't sure yet, but he wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to Herag at the slightest possibility.
In the deepest part of the courtyard is a three-story wooden house, which is Bain's personal residence.
Bane himself took Herag into the house and boiled a pot of fruit tea, which was a specialty of the city.
After Herag entered the house, he completely activated the bloodline imprint, and his appearance changed instantly.
"This ...... This...... Bane meets your Excellency. ”
When Herag turned, Bane was already on his knees and praying.
Royal Elves!
The breath of the royal elves!
There must be no mistake, it is a feeling that comes from the bones.
It's a fundamental difference in blood, and Bane feels it very clearly.
The elves are the rulers of the elven plane, and the royal elves are the rulers of the elves.
Only those elves under the Mother Tree of the World Tree will have the blood of royal elves.
The elves in these places in the Strange Valley are just some remote tribes, and there are many such tribes in the entire elven plane.
At this moment, Bane is like a small border citizen of the empire meeting the royal family of the imperial family.
The gap between the identities of the two sides is too great.
Don't talk about Bane, even the status of the elven patriarch in Strange Valley is not as good as Herag.
That's why Bane knelt so fast, so silky, as if he had rehearsed so many times.
Although Bane didn't know how Herag hid his human form, he didn't know why Herag hid his identity.
But none of this is what he is qualified to consider.
Bane fell to his knees, a little apprehensive.
He didn't know why Herag was here.
I'm just a small steward, and I'm usually just greedy for some money, so as not to alarm the noble royal family.
Bane was panicking now, and his hands and feet were a little disobedient.
"Bane." Herag spoke.
"Ah, in...... In in. Bane's body trembled with fright, and he hurriedly responded.
"Take me to your patriarch." Herag commanded.
He didn't just come this time to complete the mission, but also to do something he wanted to do.
"Okay, my lord, I'll take you there."
Bane hurriedly led the way in front of him, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Since it's to see the patriarch, it has nothing to do with yourself, not to make trouble for yourself.
Originally, according to the regulations, it must have been informed, and Herag could only be brought in after approval.
But this was the arrival of the royal elves, and Bane did not dare to let Herag wait, and led Herag through the back door in the courtyard to the outside of the fence wall.
Bane placed his hand on the wooden door of the fence wall, and after a few moments the wooden door opened automatically.
"My lord, come with me." Bane nodded and said.
When the wooden door opened, there was a dense and endless forest.
A path winds its way and extends deep into the forest.
Every few meters on the side of the road, there is a flower that looks like a street lamp, with two leaves and a white crystalline part.
Radiating the light of flesh and harmony, it shows a way forward in the dim forest.
Herag glanced at the forest and felt that there was some inexplicable magical aura hidden everywhere in the forest.
