I packed my tent luggage, and Laura put out the bonfire with water elements, and stepped on it with her feet to make sure that there was no smoke that would reveal her whereabouts before leaving. Campfires in dense forests are not only easy to cause forest fires, but more importantly, if they are left
Smoke can easily attract large wild animals, such as wolves and bears.
Even if there are no wild animals and traces are exposed, it is not cost-effective for people like us who are traveling alone to attract bandits.
I took a knife in front and cut the branches to open a path, and Laura followed behind to observe the surrounding environment at all times. Among the two of us, she was the only one who could still use magic, so she naturally took on the role of a knight.
Gradually, I found that as we walked toward the center, the trees became thicker and thicker, and there were more and more weeds and branches. It became more and more difficult for us to move and the speed became slower and slower.
In the end, there were so many branches that I could no longer cut them, so we stopped in front of a mess of tangled branches. Laura patted me and signaled to continue walking. I gasped and turned sideways, and she followed my path.
She indicated that she saw the messy branches, and looked at me again. I understood what she meant, and shook my head: "I really don't have the strength, and this branch is too thick, I can't cut through it at all."
As I said that, I handed the hatchet in my hand to Laura for a look. I had specially sharpened this hatchet, but now it had a few chips, and due to the accumulation of water elements, rust lines had appeared in the gaps.
Laura checked the surrounding weeds, then sat next to me and asked, "How far are we from the ruins?"
I closed my eyes and felt it for a moment, then pointed behind the bushes and said, "It's not far behind."
"Okay, let's hurry up." Laura said and stood up, then pulled out the guardian sword of the Hurley family from her waist, held it tightly in her hand, closed her eyes, and seemed to be reciting something in her mouth.
The sword body seemed to slowly glow with a trace of aqua blue light, and the power of the water element became stronger and stronger, extending forward along the sword body. Until the entire dagger was shrouded in a layer of light, suddenly Laura
She opened her eyes fiercely, shouted softly, held the sword in both hands, and slashed at the branch. The branch broke with a sound, and then Laura turned on the spot, and the sword edge danced across, and the surrounding branches were flattened.
I seem to have seen this set of familiar combos somewhere.
By the way, isn't this the knightly martial skill used by Alan Steele when he fought against Melb the Firecaller?
"Why are you dazed? Let's go quickly." Laura looked at me with a proud look on her face, her eyes seemed to say, "Do you think my knight's martial arts skills are great?"
I picked up my luggage, jogged a few steps to follow, and asked Laura: "Laura, were you taught these knight skills by Knight Commander Allen?"
Laura smiled proudly after hearing this: "That's right, it's awesome."
"Bang!" While we were talking, there was a sudden explosion in front of us.
I quickly protected Laura and fell to the ground. The huge impact made both of our ears temporarily deaf. I opened my mouth to shout, but there was no sound from around me. When I touched my ears, there was a trace of blood oozing out of the ear canal.
I quickly turned around to look for Laura, who had been knocked unconscious to the ground. I checked her injuries and determined that she had just been knocked unconscious, so I quickly held the Guardian Sword in my left hand and supported Laura with my right hand, bit by bit.
Move towards a tree.
After the explosion, everything seemed to be calm again. I looked around cautiously, tried to open my mouth, and gradually heard my own voice clearly. Laura's breathing was still steady, but the huge explosion shock wave knocked her out of breath.
This situation is relatively common. The Far Travelers taught me a method. I tried to help Laura sit up, then made a hollow fist with my right hand and slapped her back one finger below the midline of the trapezius muscle.
, after taking a few shots, Laura coughed and gradually woke up.
She looked around and then at me. After her head slowly cleared, she asked me: "Hen Mo, what kind of explosion was that just now?"
I shook my head: "I don't know, it was too sudden, and the most important thing is that there was no fire..." When I said this, I suddenly thought of something, looked at the guardian sword in my hand, closed my eyes and felt it.
The power of the water element in Jian Tong's body is even stronger, and it seems to be exploding. This is definitely not what Laura can do.
Could it be that Laura's water element resonated with the elements in the ruins, triggering another elemental explosion?
After I told Laura my idea, she took the dagger and tried to control it, but the dagger seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and she couldn't control it at all. After trying to dance it, Laura nodded and said, "Henmo, you
You are right, the water element on this sword is beyond my control. There is too much power of the water element."
I took the dagger and tried to dance it. It was not that heavy. At this time, Laura looked at me with surprise and shouted excitedly: "Henmo, you can handle it!"
"Yes, I can't cast magic now, so why can't I lift it?" I looked confused.
Laura was still very excited and said: "But even ordinary people cannot pick up a weapon that gathers such strong elemental power. The fact that you can pick it up means that your ability has not disappeared, and may even be stronger."
I'm not sure, but the most important thing right now is to quickly find the cause of the explosion.
So Laura and I ran along the large open space created by the explosion. The power of the explosion was very powerful. Many small saplings were knocked down by the shock wave. Only some old trees were still standing, but this was convenient for us.
action.
We arrived at the center of the elemental explosion without any hindrance. The place was bare and there was no trace of the explosion. There was only a broken stone tablet standing there. Laura stepped forward and looked at it. There was no inscription or record on the stone tablet.
I closed my eyes and felt that the water and wind elements in the surrounding environment were flowing around the stone monument. I tried to concentrate on the stone monument, but the stone monument was like a bottomless dark cave, draining all my perceptions.
All absorbed.
"Henmo! Look!" At this time, Laura's horrified cry interrupted my perception. I opened my eyes and found that a cloud of fog was forming above the stone monument. This gray cloud was like a cloud about to rain.
The thing then spoke: "Who are you? What do you call me for?"
The two of us were so frightened that we didn't know what to do. At this time, the mist slowly fell to the ground. After the mist dissipated, a bald mage wearing a robe came out.
"Um...Sorry, no offense. We were just passing by and didn't mean to disturb." I saw the mage approaching us, so I stood in front of Laura and apologized to the mage.
He walked up to me, stopped, looked at us both up and down, and said, "Interesting, interesting, it turns out you are the ones who woke me up. The girl who controls the water element, and this unfathomable boy."
The ancient words he spoke made our heads full of mud.
Suddenly he laughed and said: "The elements are trapped! Now Feng is born! The elements are violent! Destroy all living beings! Everyone in the world is ready to accept the revenge of the elements!"
Although I couldn't understand what he was talking about, I understood that he wanted revenge and it was not a good thing after all.
"Who are you?" Laura asked bravely.
The bald mage glanced at her and laughed wildly: "I am the element! I am trapped here, and you are ignorant today! Awaken my divine power! I am freedom!"
This bald mage turned out to be the incarnation of the power of the elements. This elemental power seemed to be trapped here intentionally, and Lara used the sword of guardianship to mobilize the power of the water element, which inadvertently triggered an elemental resonance, thereby liberating this power.
After looking at us for a moment, the mage said: "Kneel down, mortal, and you will release my divine power to save you from death."
After I listened, before I could speak, Laura had already snatched the Guardian Sword from my hand, drew the sword towards me, and said: "I am a bloodline of the Hurley family, a disciple of Knight Commander Alan Steele, and I am a trainee knight.
My identity prevents you from taking revenge and challenges you."
What?! How can Laura’s two brushes qualify her as a trainee knight?! My eldest lady, is this the time to show off?!
But once the words were spoken, it was too late.
The bald mage stared at the dagger in Laura's hand and spoke with interest: "Okay, interesting. The magical weapon is mysterious. If you don't want to live, I will give you death."
After finishing speaking, a powerful force of wind element gathered on the mage. Laura and I both got into position and prepared to face the legendary elemental power.
I don’t know how many readers like my work, but twenty chapters is not a big deal.
The world does not lack smart geniuses like Xi Wei, but what it lacks is Hen Mo’s stupid persistence and persistence in his original intention.
In this era full of changes, I hope everyone can be like Hen Mo, always full of hope and never give up.
