Six Kazivals were running on the branches of huge cedar trees. These thick branches were as wide as Cleary Street in Brighton. It took eleven days to reach the diplomatic embassy where Ambassador Shi Jiemin lived from the nameless village of the elves where the special team was temporarily staying.
During the journey, we did not pass many elven settlements on the road. The only food on the road was the gelatinous food of the elves in large nuts, which had a sweet and smooth texture and a full feeling of satiety.
After purchasing Cazival, Docmundo took Buchlinton to several conjoined tree holes to buy enough food for ten people for ten days, which was carried separately by Cazival, who could carry a weight of 70 kilograms.
Docmundo led a special team all the way, jumping on various intertwined branches during the day, and sleeping on the warm feathers of Kazival at night. Open fires are not allowed in the Elf Forest, and there will be a sky full of fire at night.
Luminous plankton are floating in the air, so you don’t have to worry about lighting problems. This kind of plankton elves call it Mengka, and many elves will raise a lot of plankton at home as a light source at night.
Jielin would often sit in the quilt formed by Kazival's wings at night and quietly watch these Monkeys flying in the sky. She felt homesick. Only at this time did she look like a sixteen-year-old child. Jielin had been raised since she was a child.
She was raised by her grandma, who was an ordinary farmer. However, her grandma told Jielin when she was a child that her father was an excellent hunter, which cultivated Jielin's preference for guns when she was a child. I don't know what her grandmother is doing now. Jielin looks at
Holding Mengka, she buried her head in her arms, but she understood that if she could not stop the beasts, her grandma's farm would be ruthlessly overthrown. Bridgerton and Arthur went to comfort Jielin respectively, but it was of no avail.
Lin's eyes became darker and darker, and she finally decided to go alone first.
Every night, the special team arranges for five people, whom Ejelin thinks, to take turns to keep vigil. This is a habit they have maintained since the Tali Plains. However, Arthur is usually arranged to be with different people. One is because Arthur is still a child.
, it is inevitable that there will be a time to take a nap, and secondly, it is also in case Arthur does not know how to deal with emergencies.
On the fourth day after leaving the elf village, tonight is a moonless night, and it is also Arthur and Docmundo's turn to be responsible for guarding the first half of the night. Arthur rolled over and rolled out of Cazival's wings Jielin re-stuffed them under the thick feathers
, sat next to Docmundo who was holding out his hand to support Monka. He casually chatted with Docmundo:
"Why did you choose to go to Nozil City with us?"
"As you saw that day, I can't beat that monster Jace."
"You may not believe it, but I defeated him."
"I believe you are stronger than you think."
The two entered a period of silence, and Docmundo continued to ask Arthur:
"What about you? Why did you go to Nozil City with them? I don't believe Brighton City can't find someone more powerful than a twelve-year-old kid to kidnap Savali."
"I don't know why. At first, I wanted to join the Brighton City Logistics Team and do what I can for the soldiers on the front line. Then when I went to the registration office, I was spotted by Captain Buchlington. What did he say?
I have great potential, so I was asked to join this special team. At that time, I didn’t think too much about it. What he said was so exciting. I just thought that I had to fight for my new family.”
"Perhaps he felt that you were a wizard at that time. Are you a born wizard?"
"No...wait, what is a natural wizard? No, no, wait a minute, Docmundo, look at the shadow reflected by Monka over there, that is not the shadow of the two of us," Arthur pointed at the two
On the fir tree opposite him, there was a tall black figure standing on it. Arthur turned around and glanced at his teammates, and found that everyone was sleeping soundly, including Buchington, the night watchman in the middle of the night.
So who is this standing shadow?
Arthur was about to wake up the Bucklingtons. Docmondo grabbed Arthur who was getting up and said to Arthur in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "Don't go over there. Look carefully at that shadow.
Doesn’t it sound familiar?"
After hearing this, Arthur looked carefully at the shadow on the tree, and vaguely felt that it looked a bit like Jie Lin's figure. What's going on? Jie Lin is still sleeping well, and there is no shadow in the direction the shadow is facing.
If you see anything that can form a shadow, what's the matter with the shadow standing on the tree?
Docmundo pointed at Arthur in another direction, and then pointed at himself and the opposite direction. This was a double team without knowing the opponent. This was a tactic that the special team often used when hunting on the Tali Plains.
Arthur was well aware of this tactic before he fell into coma. There must be other reasons why Docmundo prevented him from waking Buchington and the others, so Arthur followed Docmundo's direction and came to one side, and met Docmundo.
The position where Quemundo is now forming an angle is close to the shadow on the tree.
The black shadow shaped like Jie Lin's figure flickered in the faint light of Menka. When Arthur and Docmundo approached the shadow on the fir tree, Jie Lin's shadow reached out and grabbed the fir tree trunk that had just appeared.
The shadows of Arthur and Docmundo were dragged into his body. Before Arthur could react, his body was involuntarily pulled and fell straight into the shadow at his feet. Docmundo also fell in, but
He was obviously different from the panicked Arthur. He kept adjusting his body shape while falling, and two high-speed rotating cyclones appeared on the soles of his feet. The battle elf reappeared at super high speed, and instantly appeared in front of Arthur to catch him, and then Docmundo
Use the cyclone on the soles of your feet to slow down the speed of the two's fall.
"Dockmundo, what's going on?" Arthur found the opportunity to ask Docmundo loudly.
"This is a special phenomenon that sometimes occurs in the Elf Forest at night. We call it Goliath. In human language, it is called the shadow in the heart. It is a phenomenon that occurs when there are extremely turbulent emotions. This time it should be Jielin's.
What happy and sad thoughts does the little girl have?"
"Then how do we stop now?"
"You'll know soon. Get ready for battle. We're going to take a look at Jie Lin's inner shadow." Docmondo didn't reply any more, closed his eyes tightly and hugged Arthur tightly. The two of them seemed to fall from the clouds.
, when Arthur heard the whistling wind and opened his eyes, he found that he and Docmundo were falling slowly in a gray-white world that was a mirror image of the original world.
There was a large gray sky under their feet, and branches and the ground above their heads. What was even more frightening was that directly in front of the two of them, Jielin's shadow turned into a black giant tens of meters tall, roaring silently at the two of them.
A giant hand roared and struck at the two of them.
Docmundo opened his eyes just in time, and pushed Arthur in his arms with both hands. The two of them managed to escape from the two sides of the giant hand. Arthur clearly felt the strong wind blowing from his palm. This was obviously not the case.
What a shadow that can only appear under light can do. Because his sight is blocked by Jielin's giant shadow hand, Arthur doesn't know the situation of Docmundo on the other side, so he has to find a way to save himself first.
Arthur aimed one hand at the sky at his feet, his pupils turned into electric light, he praised the generosity of nature in his mouth, and his hand postures changed one after another. Four consecutive rounds of seven-note scale. The fourth shot just fired a muffled thunder, and Arthur's figure changed direction in the air.
Flying towards another branch close to the treetop not far away. Leaping over the giant palm of the shadow, Arthur saw from a distance Docmundo on the other side who was riding a cyclone and shooting iron bullets at the shadow body.
"Dockermund, there are branches over there, where to go first." Arthur continuously pointed at the branches not far from the two people's feet and shouted. The fifth-sounding bomb was aimed at his side and fired at the same time to change direction.
The moment he fell onto a branch, he fired a sixth sound bombardment below. The powerful recoil caused Arthur to suffer sonic boom damage. A lot of blood oozed from his left side of his body, but this was compared to the damage caused by being directly thrown into a meat pie.
It's already much better.
After a while, Docmundo floated to Arthur's side, looking with lingering fear at the cedar stem that Jie Lin's huge black shadow had just split open with a palm. "This girl's resentment is so strong, what on earth is she thinking?
ah?"
Arthur shook his head and got up from the ground, "You seem to be very familiar with this scene. I really want to ask you why this shadow has a physical body, but the more important question now is how do we return to the real world. To defeat
It?"
Docmundo looked at Jie Lin's shadow and silently roared and slapped them with the second palm, "No, we just need to find a way to untie her knot."
"What did you say?" Arthur ran backwards to avoid the second palm, "You know Jie Lin is not here at all, right?"
"It's not Jie Lin, it's her." Docmundo ran to Arthur again and pointed at the huge shadow.
"You...I don't know if you are crazy. Can you hear her? There is no way to solve it." Arthur almost wanted to blast the seventh pronunciation of the septet at the expressionless Docmundo
