The crowd had not rested long before they were startled again by a loud scream.

"Ah......h

Kylelius quickly recognized that it was Norra's voice, and then turned his head to look at where the voice had come from.

I saw a thick thorn, flying in the sky at a height of about twenty meters, and the sharp tip had pierced the white-billed crow that was patrolling at this time.

With this terrible scream, everyone could clearly see that the crow's blood was being sucked and sucked by the thorns at a rapid rate.

Soon, the crow was drained of blood by the bloodless thorns on its body, turned into a shriveled corpse, and was ruthlessly thrown to the ground.

The vine, red with blood, slowly retracted to the ground as if it had eaten enough, and deftly dodged a few sporadic arrows that came at it along the way.

'Damn, sure enough, the Bloodthirsty Forest is still here...... 'Looking at the scene in front of him, Kylelius instantly understood the current situation.

At the same time, he drew his wand once more and shouted at everyone around him, "Everyone, be on alert! We have a new enemy, even if it is an inconspicuous grass or a withered old tree, don't let your guard down, we are now against the whole forest!"

The crowd who still hadn't recovered from their fatigue immediately picked up their weapons and guarded the surroundings when they heard this, although the movements still looked so professional, but the panic and confusion in their expressions couldn't be concealed.

This even includes their lords.

Cornelia hurried to Kellius at this time, and asked with the same puzzled face, "Is something wrong?" ”

"I think. We may be in bigger trouble. Kelelius said with a wry smile as he looked at the still silent forest around him.

"More trouble?" Cornelia suspiciously followed Kyleus's gaze, looking around, but found nothing but the forest.

"No, forest ......" Suddenly, as if she remembered something, Cornelia's face suddenly changed drastically, and her face turned pale and her lips trembled lightly, "Could it be ......?"

Looking at the Valkyrie in fear and despair, Kyrlius couldn't help but want to take her into his arms. Hug tightly. Whisper comfort. But now is not the time to do this, and in the crisis of life and death, he is not allowed to do anything else that has nothing to do with it.

"You guessed it right, my Highness. Kylelius nodded heavily. With a heavy tone, he said, "It seems that our Excellency the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles. Haven't left this forest yet. ”

"How could it be...... Such a coincidence. Just as we entered here. The Dead Apostle appeared in this world. Cornelia said bitterly, she really didn't have much confidence in entering the ruins now.

No, it shouldn't be a coincidence. Kylelius had a vague feeling in his mind.

In order to confirm the suspicion in the heart. While Kyrlius was preparing for the magic trick, he generally asked Cornelia: "Your Highness, why did you come to this forest at this time?

It was almost autumn at this time, and the orcs and barbarians, who were destined to run out of food, usually prepared for battle at this time. Because this is the critical time for the autumn harvest of the Human Empire, they can grab enough or not enough food to survive the winter.

Cornelia hesitated, but in the end, her trust in Kylelius prevailed over her secrecy of the Empire's secrets.

"His Majesty the Emperor handed me this relic information before, and then asked me to mobilize troops as soon as possible to prepare to explore the ruins. I'm ready to go......" Conelia said with some confusion, not understanding what this topic had to do with the situation at hand.

Then she thought of something again, and said to herself with some melancholy: "But now it seems that I am still too arrogant, and this kind of preparation is completely insufficient." ”

Kyrlius silently patted Cornelia on the shoulder to comfort her, and thought to himself, 'Is it just for this reason? No, it can't be!'

The emperor ignored the government, and this was a few months or even earlier. If you need this thing in the ruins, then you should have started a long time ago, and there is no reason to delay it until now. Kelelius remembered what Lawrence had told him at the time, and reasoned.

Then there is only one most likely reason, the emperor did not want to act sooner, but he could not act early. Kellius came to a conclusion.

But why can't you act sooner...... Not ready? That can't be, the emperor looks like he's dying, so why don't you wait to die soon? Since it is not a problem on the Empire's side, it can only be a problem on the ruins' side. Kellius went on to analyze.

And the results of the analysis allowed him to come to only one conclusion, 'Were the ruins inaccessible at that time, or had they not yet appeared?' which reminded Kylelius of the place that appeared in the famous novel of the Celestial Empire on the Blue Star, the Temple of the God of War.

Kellius then quickly thought of the Dead Apostle that had appeared in the legendary forest, and who might have appeared just now, and came to a startling fact.

'That lich ruin is likely to be within the realm of the Devil's Sea, so it will also appear in the world with his arrival. This is also the reason why he has only come to explore the ruins now, and he has encountered the haunting of Fuhailin so coincidentally. ’

But then, Kyrlius had no time to continue thinking, because the whole forest began to run wild.

Like a hurricane, all the trees waved their branches and trunks like crazy, like evil spirits in hell, like resentful spirits in the abyss.

Countless vines and thorn bushes sprang up and sprung up, binding the soldiers who approached them before they could react, and then quickly dragged them into the low bushes under the gaze of the crowd.

The thorns, covered with blood thorns and barbs, tightened their prey, piercing their skin with barbs, reaching into their veins, sucking their blood.

And the elite soldiers of the pro-guards, who have been in battle for a long time, can only let out screams that are not like human voices, and can do nothing else.

After a dozen hapless soldiers were dragged into the bushes, the others recovered from the shock and tried to save them, but it was too late.

The soldier who was dragged into it let out an even more miserable and desperate cry, but after a few seconds, it gradually returned to calm. (To be continued......)
