Chapter 68: Transaction and Promise
Pale treemen emerged in the woods like ghosts. They were just a few sparse at first, but gradually gathered into thin flowing streams, which merged into a real torrent.
Alisa was leaning against the crystal branch, and the dagger in her hand reflected the scene of the ashes-branched creature attacking like a tide. Hangang's blade was gaze like a pool of cold ice.
They are here.
She looked back. The elves built simple fortifications based on the barrier raised by the leader. A trench formed under the trapezoidal earth, and the earth and rocks were automatically climbing along the wall, and beams of silver light were emerging from the soil, as if giving those inanimate material spirits and wisdom.
From the perspective of the earthlings, this scene is extremely magical, but it is actually nothing. Alchemists in Aitalia have shaped the form of the world in their own way for thousands of years, and they have extracted ways to explain all truths from the ether.
But it was not exactly the same, at least at this moment. Alisa looked at the figure on Tuluo. The person she jokingly called the leader of the group was barely over the age of a young man, but she had not yet completely lost her childishness.
The intertwined light in his hands is like silk threads, intertwined with each other, depicting a picture. The picture is full of imagination, as if the soil gathers into bricks and stones. The bricks and stones build a magnificent high wall, like an ancient prophecy that people passed on from mouth to mouth:
A prophet made a canyon from the mountains, erected high walls from the canyon, and established laws on them.
That is the Seiro Holy Order, the twelve iron laws of the ancient knights:
One is for protection and the other is for virtue.
One is mercy and the other is justice.
One is firmness and the other is deep consideration.
May also stood his big shield and was watching this scene strangely. The lions from the White Maned clan, the travelers from the far-reaching clan, and the pilgrims from the Ashes, all told them about the towering white walls and the foundations that the Knights were able to establish. Every time the leader of the great group was lifted up, he was full of energy.
And that was actually a stone slab, and she had already remembered every rule engraved on it.
Miss Knight's eyes were sparkling with a charming luster. She had heard that legend more than once. Of course, that legend was not exactly the same as before her, but the coincidence at this moment was full of a magical color.
Above the high wall, there was another scene. The elf female knight was looking at the human in front of her seriously. The expression on her face had just experienced many changes from surprise to surprise, and then to seriousness. A group of elf knights on the side were asking her with their eyes: What should they do?
The female knight waved her hand and signaled them to protect Fang Zhu from left and right. Even so, she seemed to be worried. She turned around and ordered her chief warlock, causing the other party to erect a magic shield for the young alchemist.
The Saint Selected Craftsmen who watched this scene from afar were too late to envy the preferential treatment. Although the elves never treat them alchemists in particular, the miraculous high wall was circulating in people's mouths. Of course, they noticed that Fang Zhu only used his magic gloves - and pulled a soil stack with a circumference of nearly 245 meters and a width of 1.7 meters from the soil.
This scene is more magic than alchemy. How did he do it? Everyone is asking others about this question, but what they actually want to ask is:
Can I do it?
"Ancient Alchemy." The chief warlock carefully concluded after observing for a long time. He turned around and said to his commander while maintaining his protective spell.
"What do you think?" asked the elf female knight.
The warlock shook his head. The elves in the autumn forest still have ancient legends. I believe that the Son of Ryu is a branch left by the Noumerlin elves. This is why the elves Wang Ting firmly believes that he is orthodox. Among those long-standing rumors, the elves still use ancient alchemy, which is very different from today.
But what is bitter is that now this excellent ethnic group has fallen to the point where there is nothing to do with mortals, and its weak body can no longer directly withstand the wildness of magic.
"Maybe they'll meet him, maybe he can get a chance."
"A chance? The Tower of Spring Dawn?" The female knight's eyes flashed, "Are you talking about that?"
The chief warlock nodded silently.
The female knight thought for a moment, and this might be an opportunity. She glanced at Fang Yu with some appreciation. The elves in the Holy Woods were not blindly arrogant, but there were few people and things that she could like to see now.
The fall of the mortal world is boring, but this does not only refer to humans. This is not the case with the elves. At least compared with the era of the Double Holy Tree, it is difficult for them to be called Saint White and Son of Ruguang.
The choice of the Noumerlin elves to escape from the world may be the right choice. Now the upper class of Tiruan has reached a general consensus, which is another title of the Holy Tree Council.
It may not be too late to choose now, and the appearance of this young man is more like an opportunity. She doesn't know if the other party will refuse, but the Tower of Chunxiao should be attractive.
Fang Yu did not hear the whispers between the female knight and the sorcerer, so he naturally did not know what happened behind him for a short moment, and looked at his gaze with the elf commander.
He just saw the gray tide on the edge of the forest spreading rapidly along the river valley, and the wall he had molded could only be used temporarily, because the objects shaped by the art of creation still had certain problems.
Just a simple earth trunk is naturally no more complex structure than a complex structure. It can be used after simple reinforcement. Not only him is here, but others only expand and reinforce with this five-angle fortress as the core, and a fortress will rise up from the ground.
When the last brick and stone were shaped, Fang Zhu retracted his hands. He couldn't help but feel dizzy when he was too heavy and subconsciously took a step back.
A fair hand stretched out from behind him and held him in time. It was the Miss Shipkeeper who rushed back. Fang Yu looked back and saw Silvede looking at him with concern.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He shook his head and said it was okay. Although it was just a simple wall building, the project volume was huge. Fortunately, Miss Tata shared a lot of pressure for him at the last moment.
This is because the Qihai Traveler cannot enter the gray domain, otherwise it will be easier to rely on the Fairy Heart. He felt exhausted because the elemental ether in the magic furnace was extracted.
He then looked back at the female knight, and the other party showed a gentle and admiring look and smiled at him: "The Kaurin people's views on alchemy are many of us, and they believe that outstanding people are usually not bad. You are not talking big, and Tiruan welcomes the humans who speak Binpo."
The elves were still so tactful. Fang Yu heard that the other party praised him in a circle, which was rare for the Holy Whites in the autumn forest. He noticed that the other party was using Tirian instead of the Holy Woods, which meant that she represented the elves rather than the Elders' Council.
"Ms. Commander, now that we have fulfilled our commitment."
"Yes, the Son of Light will naturally fulfill his promise," replied the female knight. "But you still have to wait until we knocked back these twisted monsters before we can leave this place."
Although she was still asking for a tone, her tone was at least a lot softer.
Fang Zhu nodded, and the gray matter creatures surrounded him from all directions. There might be even more terrifying existences in the crystal forest. If they do not repel their attacks, they will not be able to do without this place.
His eyes looked towards the foundation of the crystal tower, and he couldn't help but remind the other party: "There are among those craftsmen..."
"I know," the elf nodded and interrupted him, "There is no need to stop them, let them do what they want to do. That crystal tower is actually not that important, and no one will support us. It is also good to let a non-existent crystal tower distract those people."
Fang Yu looked at the other party unexpectedly: "Ms. Commander, do you say there is no support?"
"You have fulfilled your promise, and I don't want to hide it. We are here just to complete this blockade, and the fortress is not important," the Elf lady looked at him with a gentle look. "It didn't exist from the beginning, nor was it possible to establish it. Others should thank you, at least they have the possibility of survival now."
"So there is no point in building that crystal tower," Fang Yu understood, "because no one would support this direction at all?"
"That's right." The female knight nodded.
Fang Rong wanted to express the art of a thousand languages in his mind. Now he finally understood why the other party looked calm and calm, and the crystal tower did not exist from the beginning. They never thought of going back alive.
Those night walkers' craftsmen were deceived by a crystal tower on paper, and naturally he was the same.
What he wanted to curse was that Ailin Tiexin used himself as a baby for filling in the line, but he soon realized that using two craftsmen as cannon fodder for filling in the line might not be the plan of the master craftsman.
Ailin Tiexin, an outsider, would not have such power, and this might be the work of the elf commander.
"It takes so much trouble to deceive those people?"
"Night Walker, Twelve Colored Iris, we don't know who they cooperate with," replied the female knight: "But the Son of Light is insufficient, and we have to rely on these Saints. This is a multiple plan. If we don't capture these people, it will be difficult for us to really launch a counterattack against the disaster."
"who are they?"
"Shadow Brotherhood."
Fang Ling was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect to hear this name here.
It was the Brotherhood of Shadows, the Empire's plan, the burning of the Silver Library, and even the death of their own parents, which seemed to be related to it, and this familiar name once again appeared in the Hill of Giant Trees.
Many thoughts turned around in his mind, and that was just a moment. The elf female knight looked at him and explained:
"This is a traitor who was separated from the Oath Guardian. These people have actually existed since the end of the Giant War. The burning incident of the Silver Tower Grand Library has been related to them. They serve a master hidden in the dark and are committed to resurrecting Cangcui."
Neya had told them before that behind these traitors who had split from the oath guards were actually shadow men, and they were also closely related to the empire's plan.
Since the first appearance from Kaorin-Ishurien North, these twisted shadow creatures seem to be everywhere. In fact, these monsters have already appeared in the Dragon Witch incident.
Fang Zhu did not forget the armor they had seen in Zengdorifen, and the original owner of the armor was a servant of one of the heroes of the Battle of Byrne.
He always had a premonition that what the filmmaker planned in this world was just resurrection, but this plan even extended to the world on the other side of the Star Gate.
Can a disaster star have such influence?
“The 'death plague' spreading in the hills of giant trees is related to the Shadow Brotherhood?”
"No," the female knight shook her head, "The death plague comes from the holy tree, from the changes in higher dimensions, from the life and death of gods, the shadow spreads in the forest, we have no way to stop it, and can only delay its impact on Teraka and on us."
"And the Shadow Brotherhood did something against you?"
The female knight nodded, "They spread the seeds of the 'death epidemic' everywhere, bringing the scourge branches to places with protective barriers, and destroying our barriers from the inside. You should have seen the elite scourge branches there, and that is exactly what these people do."
"But not only that, Ninimer, among the three major disaster branches, was planted by these people."
It turns out that this is how Ninimer came from. Although Fang Zhu had heard that Ninimer was planted by man, he did not expect it to be related to the Shadow Brotherhood.
However, the elf female knight only mentioned Ninimel, indicating that at least two of the three disaster branches were primary, which means that the disaster itself had nothing to do with the Shadow Brotherhood.
So what is their motivation for spreading the 'death epidemic'?
Although the doomsday theory, the destruction of the world seems to be consistent with the behavior of these people, Fang Yuchen understands that the shadow man behind these people does not want a destructive world.
The lack of starlight drives shadowmen to attack one world after another, but their attacks do not allow them to gain a moment of peace. The void will swallow one world after another. They are like ghouls who are always hungry and need to eat until they tear up the worlds and turn them into pieces.
Just like the scene that the Dragon Queen Alaisha and the goddess of fate Elaine let him see.
But destruction is the result of it, not the end.
Only Fang Yuming understood that what these people did was crazy to ordinary people, but in fact there were traces to follow, nothing more than subversion, creating chaos, and taking the opportunity to enter the game, and it was often related to those deceased gods.
Dead god?
A sudden light of inspiration flashed in Fang Yu's mind. Could it be that the Shadow Brotherhood came for the extinction of the lady, and they thought that the Gemini goddess of the Shadow in the Forest had died?
He raised his head and asked, "Why did the Selected Work with these people?"
"You mean the craftsmen of the Nightcrawlers?" The Elf Knight looked in that direction. "Not all of them were collaborators of cultists, but the fallen people sought nothing but power, and the Shadow Brotherhood gave very simple, and they promised eternal life to those people."
eternal life.
Is it difficult to say immortality? It is not simple. Compared with Aitalia, which is full of immortal species, human beings are quite short-lived races.
The short-lived seeds yearn for longer life. Perhaps it is difficult to achieve true eternity, but almost infinite length from the perspective of human beings, thousands or tens of thousands of years can be said to be immortal.
This is actually nothing to Aitalia. Elfs have thousands of years of life, and elves are just mortals. Even mortals will gain a longer life span after crossing the realm of the law.
But none of this opens the door to the Saint Selected One. Even the Saint Selected One's Dragon Knight will return to the other side of the Star Gate after the starlight given by the Star Gate is exhausted and spend the short life of an ordinary person.
There are some things that you may be indifferent before you see before, but once the fiction becomes a reality, it becomes a possibility, and few people will not be moved.
Especially those who hold money and power.
The Dragon Worshipers used eternal life to deceive the upper class of the Saint Selected Club, which was no longer news to Fang Yu. With the military's further investigation of the alliance, some more shocking facts have been revealed.
But generally speaking, these promised eternal life are not without a price. Its first price is to give up the identity on the other side of the star gate and live forever in this star-bright world.
What's more, eternal time itself is a torture. Perhaps Fang Rong is still very young and does not realize the importance of life span. Eternity is a long and boring choice for him, and he cares more about the present.
The Elf Knight couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the other party not caring too much.
She had seen all the short-lived species that would express a certain degree of yearning for this vocabulary without exception. Even the person with the strongest will have a moment of trance.
However, the more Fang Yu showed no concern for her long life, the more she met her requirements. At least it means that the other party would not be deceived by those people. Although the eternal life they promised was full of suspicious loopholes, it was impossible to prevent someone from throwing into the arms of the abyss at all costs.
The elves need a reliable collaborator, just like the young man in front of him.
She waved her hand gently and interrupted Fang Yu's words, "Those monsters are attacking. I know you still have something to ask. Wait until the battle is over."
"Wait," Fang Rong called her, "How many of your plans are true?"
"You mean we are blocking these gray matter creatures here, and then the Commander will launch a counterattack against the disaster branch?" The female knight stopped and looked at him. "Apart from the part of the fortress construction, everything else is true, and this plan is not only this place. Night Walker, Twelve Colored Iris, Nottingham Boat and SK all have teams participating in this plan. We will separate them. As long as there are two victories in the six blocking sites in this plan, the Commander's plan is highly likely to be successful."
She told frankly: "We will go deep into the depths of the Asan Scar and the Gray Domain, and Master Ailin Iron Heart has not completely deceived you. If we succeed, you will get the answer."
Fang Yu's eyes crossed her shoulders and looked behind her. The elves knights had actually been in place, including the chief warlock, who had also prepared a spell.
The earth and stone surround the elements of the elves, forming shields around them. Around these casters, the elves' longbowers have stood in rows.
They set their bows and arrows, and shot the first wave of arrow rain into the forest.
The silver feather arrow was like a wing, with curves drawn on the tip of the pen, and gracefully fell into the gray creatures of the stars, falling down in a convenient way.
Then fire burst out from the wedge-shaped earth turret - in this era, longbows and magic guns are not essentially different. After all, there are also excellent hunters in the Son of Light, and they proved themselves as early as the wars of the Dark Age.
Fang Yu withdrew his gaze from the rain of bullets and looked at the female knight again: "I will help you defend the position, but you also need to do me a favor."
The female knight looked at the young man with a little suspiciously. She did not doubt the other party's level as an alchemist, but to say that the battle was completed, alchemy and combat craftsmen were two different fields.
"This battle is not as easy as you think. The gray matter creatures are not the only ones you have seen before. The real dangers among them are quite difficult to deal with even the Son of Ryu."
"I understand, but I only need a reply, Ms. Commander."
The female knight thought for a moment and asked, "Then what do you want us to help you?"
"I want to meet Etira Greenhill Stars."
The female knight almost thought for a moment before realizing who the name should belong to. She couldn't help but look surprised, "Saint Maiden..."
But the female knight suddenly realized something, and the rumors about the Dragon Alchemist, and then she suddenly realized with surprise. However, she shook her head gently, "You want to see the Saint, but you are actually wrong. It is not us who really blocked you from seeing her, but the Holy Woods."
"Holy Woods, Council of Elders?"
"This is a long story," replied the female knight, "but now I can promise you first and help you create an opportunity to meet the saint's crown prince."
"Trade." Fang Yu immediately replied that the other party should not lie to him. As long as he contacts the elders' council, he will naturally understand the other party's attitude.
If they can get help from the Elves Court, no matter what the Elders' Council's attitude is, their chances of meeting Miss Atira will be greatly increased.
This is of course a sure profitable deal for him.
