Chapter 390: The Aria of the Forest
Regarding the matter of the Blood Shadow Assassin Clement, Zhao Nan had long known that he would be arrested and questioned sooner or later, but he never expected that the dead old man in front of him had already deduced that he had done it.
It's true that Clement was killed by him, but the problem is that Zhao Nan himself didn't want to do this, and that guy wanted to do something strange to the lovely Joan of Arc sister at that time.
Out of the principle of heroes saving beauty, Zhao Nan called the other party, not to mention, that guy was also murderous at that time, no matter how stupid Zhao Nan was, it was impossible for him to stand different and let him kill.
As for Clement's death, it was definitely an accident, Zhao Nan was in a state of mystery and scorching Hades at the time, and his consciousness was not very clear, and it was that tyrannical fighting instinct that drove him to remove the two threats of Clement and Fernancis.
So, this was definitely not Zhao Nan's intention, although he expressed a lot of opinions about Clement's guy.
"I really didn't kill him on purpose, he did it first, and Lao Tzu was in legitimate defense. Now that he has been put on a goof, Zhao Nan is not afraid to say it directly.
If Nidiro really wants to avenge Clement, Zhao Nan will never sit idly by, and it is a big deal to open the mystery again.
"Zhao Nan boy, don't be nervous, old man, I'm ...... Ahh Nidiro almost bit his tongue in the middle of speaking, and after a while, he waved his hand and said again: "Don't be nervous, I didn't say what I want to do to you?" ”
"Funny, if I go with you and explain the matter, the rest of the people will let me go?" Zhao Nan sneered.
"At least I'm not going to do it to you, am I? For so long, you thought you would be able to escape?" said Nidiro with a wry smile.
Zhao Nan was stunned and didn't speak, Nidiro said it well, with his strength, in such a long conversation just now, he had already had hundreds of opportunities to shoot at Zhao Nan, and Zhao Nan was really impossible to escape if he was unprepared.
"Lay down your weapons and go out with me. Clement's affairs have my guarantee for you. Nidiro Zuihou said.
Zhao Nan thought for a while, and finally put away the Holy Sword-Humility, but he pulled the skill of the Mystery Flame Hedes into the shortcut bar.
After a while, if the rest of the forest arias had any attacking moves, Zhao Nan would launch it, regardless of whether the monsters in his body would control him or not. Let's get out of here.
"That's what you said, old man. If anything happens to Lao Tzu. The first one to settle accounts with you. Zhao Nan muttered.
Nidiro couldn't laugh or cry for a while, and said in his heart: The old man is a high priest of the elven clan who has lived for hundreds of years, as for coaxing a child like you?
Nidiro said a word, and a green magic circle appeared at the feet of the two, and a large number of green vines emerged from it, submerging their figures, and when the green vines burrowed back to the ground. The two were gone.
Located in the front hall of the Nova Temple, a group of green-robed attendants were half-kneeling on the ground, and the same green magic array suddenly appeared in front of them, and Zhao Nan and Nidiro also walked out of the green vines in the magic array.
"Attend Your Excellency the High Priest. Participate in the Phantom Swordsman!"
A group of waiters shouted respectfully.
Nidiro hummed majestically, and then walked in the direction of the main hall with Zhao Nan.
Inside the main hall, a group of forest arias had been waiting inside for a long time, this scene Zhao Nan had experienced half a year ago. After completing the four-turn task that time, it was Donnaxiu who brought him and Gu Ming here for the official inheritance ceremony.
Although the forest arias are the highest leaders of the elves, they do their own duties, and they live in the Temple of Nova for many years, and more often than not, they live in their posts.
Such as the sword dancer Fakyu, who is responsible for the management of the Hunters' Guild and the security and order of the elves, and the mountain giant Donnasius, who guards the Dome of Original Sin that imprisons the winged people.
When Nidiro walked into the main hall with Zhao Nan, several sword-like gazes fell on Zhao Nan at once, and there were a few light commotions immediately.
"Hey, it's Zhao Nan's guy, isn't he in the Northern Battlefield?"
"Will the High Priest Weishenme be with him?"
......
When Zhao Nan heard these words, he swept around silently.
He and Nidiro were in the center of the hall, surrounded by five or six figures sitting on either side, many of whom were familiar with each other, such as Hanos and Fakyu.
Of course, the guy Zhao Nan is most familiar with is also there.
Gu Ming was already sitting in the corner of the hall, but when he saw the high priest walk in, he stood up like everyone else, and glanced at Zhao Nan intentionally or unintentionally.
There was a deep meaning in that look, and Zhao Nan felt a pain in his eyes.
"Sit down, everybody. As soon as Nidiro Shiran sat down, he smiled gently at everyone, and then pulled Zhao Nan and asked him to sit beside him.
Zhao Nan was not polite, and after glancing at the commotion just now, he sat down generously.
At the moment when Zhao Nan just sat down, several unceremonious glances swept over him. Among those eyes, there is Zhao Nan's most unpleasant guy - the phantom beast hunter Han Os.
Zhao Nan's face sank, he pursed his lips, and a cold snort suddenly came from his nose.
Nidiro's face was radiant, his eyes swept around, his eyes were full of light, and the injuries he had suffered after fighting the two six-colored dragon kings had obviously been fully compensated.
"Your Excellency High Priestess, looking at your current aura, it seems that your injuries are almost healed, right?" Fakyou, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, immediately opened his eyes and laughed as soon as Nidiro Fang appeared in the hall.
As the original sword dancer, although his position has been passed down to Gu Ming, many times, he is still involved in the work of the forest aria behind the scenes, so this time he also came here in person for the defense of the shijie tree.
"It's okay, after all, with the holy power of the shijie tree as the backing, it's not too difficult to heal the injury. Nidiro replied calmly.
"Your Excellency the High Priestess's injuries are fine, after all, this crisis is not trivial. Your Excellency the High Priest is the backbone of our liliang and is indispensable. Fakyu smiled again.
"I had something to discuss with Zhao Nan just now, so I came a little late, and I hope you colleagues will forgive me for one or two, I think everyone is very concerned about the sudden attack of the six-colored dragon king on our shijie tree this time. Nidiro stood in the center of the hall, glanced around the crowd, and then said with a nonchalant smile.
"High Priest, we were indeed taken aback by the Dragon King's surprise attack this time, and at this moment we are here to discuss countermeasures. It's to fight the dragon tide outside the Shijie tree, but before joining forces to fight against the external enemy, I think it's necessary to solve the internal problems first. A clear voice came from the mouth of the phantom beast hunter Hanos.
Listening to his tone, it seemed as if he was going to argue with Nidiro.
Zhao Nan listened from the sidelines. His heartbeat was a few beats faster, and at the same time he cursed: This guy is really coming to find fault.
"Hanos. You want to ask Klement the Blood Shadow Assassin about it, right? Your Excellency the High Priest has already decided, why should you be anxious? On the contrary, the great enemy before you is the evil dragon outside the Shijie tree, and it is of no help for you to mention such a thing at this time in our present situation. Fakeu said in a deep voice.
"Fakyu, you're no longer a sword dancer, and it's not your turn to speak here. Hanos scoffed.
Farkyu said. His face suddenly became a little ugly, but Gu Ming beside him said loudly: "Although the teacher is no longer in the position of a sword dancer, as a former forest aria, his status in the elven clan is also very transcendent. In this crisis, he personally came to Shijie Tree to support, is it possible that Lord Hanos, will you categorically refuse this kind of gratuitous support on behalf of everyone? Since everyone is on the same front, I think the teacher definitely has the right to speak here. ”
Gu Ming said this very decently, and pointed out all the powerful relationships, which made Han Os dumbfounded for a while.
Fakyou showed a smile of relief, obviously very satisfied with what Gu Ming, the student, said to him.
"That's right, Fakeu is our former colleague, although he has passed on his position to a new sword dancer, he is still an elder of our elven clan, how can we completely ignore his valuable advice?" a 26 or 7-year-old elven woman chuckled, and a slender jade hand brushed away a trace of the long golden hair that fell down her shoulder, and then said lightly.
This woman is beautiful, more beautiful than ordinary elves, wearing a white robe, with a holy crown on her head, as if she does not eat the goddess of fireworks in the world, she is another forest aria on the same front as Fakeu and Nidiro, Leonie the Holy Sage.
Don't look at Leonie so young, in fact, she is the supreme leader responsible for serving the Elven Queen's Divine Master, and she is also the grandmother of the Elven Divine Master Maggie.
"Hmph, we respect Mr. Fakeu's opinion, but Hanos's proposal is not meaningless, if you can't even deal with internal worries, how can you deal with external troubles?" Another handsome elf wearing dark green armor, about twenty years old, with a pale face, sneered and asked rhetorically, obviously looking like he was in the same group as Hanos.
He is Arthur, the Knight of Nova, and the Templar of the Nova Temple, the Forest Aria who is responsible for managing the temple's internal affairs.
As soon as these people opened their mouths, the factions were clearly divided, except for the mountain giant Donnasiu, who did not speak, remained neutral, the two old and new sword dancers Gu Ming and Fakyu, and the holy sage Leonie were all on the side of the high priest.
As for Arthur, the Knight of Nova, and the dead Blood Shadow Assassin Clement, they are on the same front as Hanos.
Originally, before Clement died, Hanos had the support of Arthur and Donnahew, and in terms of numbers, Hanos had a greater chance of winning.
But now that Clement has died for no reason, and Donnacius has suddenly become neutral, Hanos is particularly annoyed, so he specifically mentioned the fall of Clement at this meeting.
"We forest arias haven't had a fall since the end of the age of the gods, and Clement died an unknown death, shouldn't we figure it out? Hanos squinted his eyes and sneered.
His words were already clearly pointed at Zhao Nan.
Your sister, who is the guy of unknown origin? Zhao Nan heard a burst of earache and couldn't help muttering.
When the other forest arias heard this, there was a commotion, and many people were actually somewhat concerned about the fall of the Blood Shadow Assassin, if it weren't for the fact that Shijie Tree was now attacked by the dragon, I'm afraid they would have directly held a council.
For a while, all eyes drifted towards Zhao Nan, the party, intentionally or unintentionally.
What is going to come is always coming.
Zhao Nan let out a sigh, and when he was about to stand up and speak, Nidiro held him down quietly, and then nodded slightly at Han Ao and the others, and said: "Han Os and Arthur also said yes, Clement's matter should be explained, I think you should all know, the phantom swordsman Zhao Nan went to the northern battlefield with Clement, and he, as the party, will inevitably become the center of everyone's attention, however, before Zhao Nan explains this matter, I will explain one thing here......"
Speaking of this, Nidiro's momentum suddenly rose, and a momentum of not being angry and powerful erupted, and he said in a deep voice: "Now, the great war between my clan and the dragon is imminent, I don't want anything unpleasant to happen among us, whoever adds fuel and vinegar to kill any colleague at this time, I, Nidiro, the high priest of the elven clan, will not let go of this kind of person." ”
With that, Nidiro did not hesitate to look at Hanos.
"Your Excellency the High Priest is serious, as long as what the Phantom Swordsman Zhao Nan said is the truth, then we will not embarrass him. Han Os's momentum suddenly weakened a lot, and he laughed dryly.
"Wow, old man, you're blowing up the sky. Zhao Nan smiled secretly at Nidiro.
Nidiro glanced at him angrily, and then said loudly: "In order to dispel your doubts, so that everyone can concentrate on fighting the evil dragon together, now let the Phantom Swordsman Zhao Nan explain what happened in the northern battlefield, especially the fall of the Blood Shadow Assassin Clement." ”
Zhao Nan coughed, then stood up and said directly: "Don't talk nonsense, that's right, that guy Clement was killed by Lao Tzu." ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the forest arias changed greatly, only Nidiro's face was as usual, as for Gu Ming, this guy directly gave Zhao Nan a big roll of his eyes.
Zhao Nan didn't notice it, he was still extremely calm, he planned it this way. Now that the facts have been grasped by Nidiro, it is presumable that the other forest arias also know something about the killing of Clement through various means.
Instead of hiding, just tell the truth generously, as for what the result will be, sorry, Zhao Nan didn't expect it yet.
"Haha, Zhao Nan, as a Phantom Swordsman, you actually killed Clement, who is also an aria of the forest? When Han Os heard the satisfactory answer, he immediately showed a smug smile.
Arthur, the Nova knight beside him, stood up without hesitation, and with a whoosh, he had already appeared behind Zhao Nan, and a green saber at his waist was directly on Zhao Nan's neck. (To be continued......)
