Solderin pointed his short bow at the elf girl not far in front of him, as if he turned a deaf ear to the other party's greeting.
"It's so indifferent." The elf girl had the same smile on her face as before, but that smile now had a lot of sarcasm and a strange feeling. "On the previous journey, you could always use your elders and protection as your "It's your own fault."
"Words can't delay your time," Solderin said calmly, the arcane glow gradually filling the bowstring, "Who are you?"
p>"Me?" The corners of Berna's mouth raised slightly, "I'm just a...druid traveling far away."
As the last syllable of the elf girl fell, Her figure was suddenly enveloped by a group of fallen leaves that appeared out of thin air and flew wildly!
Solderin released the bowstring in his hand without thinking. An arrow filled with arcane energy pierced the air and split into more than a dozen dazzling rays of light in mid-air. The blind spot covered the wildly dancing storm of fallen leaves - the deadly brilliance penetrated the fallen leaves without any hindrance. However, Solderlin did not relax at all. The sense of crisis made him jump high almost instinctively. The moment he left the ground, countless poisonous black thorns emerged from the surface, crushing the rock he was standing on!
The strange fragrance of flowers filled the air, and the abnormal magical wind stirred the surrounding forest trees. The leaves and branches shook and made a rustling sound. A hoarse, twisted, and obviously deliberately concealed female voice. Came from all directions: "I'm curious, when did you become suspicious of me?"
Solderin fell to the ground, and a layer of emerald green halo spread from his feet, hindering The growth of those poisonous thorns also blocked the ubiquitous fragrance of flowers. He frowned and looked at the re-condensed figure not far away - the figure was still holding up Berna's face, but its lower body had turned into a The strange shapes supported by roots and vines, and the strange shapes of the enemies made him wary. He observed carefully and said: "I really haven't noticed it yet - but just when I was about to leave the messenger hall, I suddenly realized it. My mental state and judgment were not quite right these days, so I asked Master Heart of Thorns about her apprenticeship records over the past two centuries - she has not accepted any new apprentices at all in the past two centuries!"
"How can you get rid of the effect of confusing pollen so quickly..." The half-human, half-tree female druid chuckled softly, but the fragrance of flowers around her became more and more intense, with a large number of strange flowers. It was blooming at her feet, spreading the mind-disturbing aura throughout the forest. "I thought you had been with me all this time, constantly affected by low doses of pollen, and would never recall those mistakes. Well..."
"You underestimated the people who survived the Gondor Wasteland..." Solderin drew the bow again and stringed it, "Don't waste any time, I'll be ready when I In this case, those pollen are of no use to me - without these mental tricks, you are no match for the high-level ranger.Tell me honestly, who are you? Why did you sneak into the surveillance station? "
"Bernard Breeze is indeed the apprentice of Heart of Thorns...but that was three hundred years ago," the evil female Druid smiled, "She is An elf who wanted to go home after her travels, but fell down on the way home, and I just helped her...
"Also, proud high-level ranger, you really Do you think you have a chance of winning? You can indeed resist the effects of the confusing pollen, but the ordinary rangers and sentries you brought and ambushed here...can they resist it too?"
Thor? Delin's face changed slightly, but his eyes immediately became sharp: "I am enough to keep you here alone."
"What a coincidence, I thought so too - withered tree man!"< /p>
"Grenade Throw!"

Typhon Imperial Capital, Alder South, Noble District.
Grand Duke Petinan stood in the study room where the portraits of his family ancestors (there were no fake corpses) were hung, and he looked quietly at the street scene of the imperial capital that was immersed in smoke like smoke. Those tall and magnificent, or resplendent The buildings were now covered with a hazy veil, and the lingering fog obscured many details in the imperial capital. Only the tallest, noble and royal buildings with the brightest lights stood proudly in the fog. The lights and its huge silhouette outline many spectacular silhouettes, which are clearly visible in the fog.
This scene is like the idea of this empire - the nobility and royal family are like beacons, guiding the ignorant people forward.
After Aldernan enters the foggy month, it will be frequently shrouded in thick fog. This is also a typical feature of the central region and some northern regions of the continent. The word "foggy moon" in the calendar originally meant Derived from this.
In the past, Pei Dinan liked the foggy weather very much - he liked the hazy but hard-edged appearance of this ancient city after being immersed in the fog, which made him think of this. The empire that has experienced countless turmoils but still stands proudly will remind him of the famous battle when he first set foot on the battlefield, was attacked by the enemy in the thick fog, but fought back to fight his way out. However, today, he Not interested in admiring the scenery in the fog.
The intelligence from the border of the empire was placed on the desk behind him. The special magic parchment had been unsealed, and the content written on the paper clearly appeared on the paper, with feminine fonts on it. There are only a few words written:
Winter Wolf Castle was attacked by a huge humanoid monster. The monster is like a flesh and blood giant. It is extremely powerful and is almost not afraid of swords. It can easily corrode and brittle our city walls and walls. Steel armor...
The defense forces suffered heavy losses, but fortunately the fortress was not lost.
The monster comes from the direction of the Dark Mountains.
This is the information sent back by Andesa. Along with this information, there is another note. The content written on it is even simpler. There is only one sentence: Ansu Southern Territory Attacked by flesh and blood giants, pluggedThe damage to Searle's collar is unknown.
This information came from other channels of the Wendell family.
Duke Ferdinand withdrew his gaze and turned around. His eyes swept across the information on the table, and then fell on the portraits of the first few ancestors of the Wendel family hanging on the opposite wall, and whispered Said to himself: "Are those really the monsters you faced back then?"
He couldn't help but think of decades ago, when he was an ordinary knight captain, at the border of the empire. The traveling monk he met and the warning he gave him.
That was a rare elf monk. When young Ferdinand Wendell met him for the first time, the monk was wandering on the border of the empire, and it was the same at that time as it is today. The foggy moon was filled with the same fog as today - to this day, Duke Ferdinand still remembers the scene at that time. He was injured on the battlefield and was rescued by the mysterious elf monk. The two of them were in the foggy forest. We found a tree hole to rest temporarily. The monk's head was shining brightly in the mist, and his words are still fresh in my memory to this day: "Young human warrior, you keep saying Following your ideals and ambitions, it is as if you will gain glory as long as you can lead the troops to defeat the country on the opposite side, but do you know? Your real threat is not your fellow human beings at all...
" Two countries that originally share the same origin have become such a mess. Don't any of you take a look at the wasteland just around the corner? Those monsters were sealed seven hundred years ago, but are you really not afraid of them returning to this world? "
Duke Ferdinand took a gentle breath, his expression became firm, he shook the copper bell that summoned the butler, and whispered to himself: "Master Delin, you are right.
“They are indeed back.
“Humanity has to change. "
The door of the study room opened, and the old butler who had served the family loyally for many years appeared in front of Pei Dinan: "Sir, what are your orders? "
"Prepare a carriage for me, I am going to meet His Majesty the Emperor! ”
The carriage and entourage bearing the emblem of the Wendel family enjoyed the highest level of aristocratic privileges. The palace of Rosetta Augustus opened the door to Duke Ferdinand, looking at the majestic The palace wall continued to expand in sight, and Pei Dinan's heart was as firm as steel.
No matter how bad the emperor's mental state has deteriorated, no matter how much influence his words can have on this huge empire. , he must change the direction of Typhon's war machine today - if it is delayed to three days, then His Majesty the Emperor will convene the last noble council. By then, if he still wants to do something, he can only take his last resort. The method he was unwilling to adopt...
Pei Dinan looked down at his hands that were used to holding swords and were still full of strength, and slowly clenched them into fists.
Not until the end. He is never willing to take the worst path.
He will never take the worst path.Entering the palace, he entered the palace where Emperor Rosetta Augustus was, and with the help of his attendants, he took off his heavy ducal cloak, but still wore a decorative sword around his waist - this was his role as an imperial The privileges that the first duke should enjoy - he had received permission to meet. Under the leadership and accompanying of the attendants, the duke walked towards the place where Emperor Typhon was currently located.
When he was halfway there, Duke Ferdinand found that the attendant was taking him to the reception room instead of the study where the emperor usually received him, so he asked curiously: "Your Majesty is in the reception room? He is receiving the reception. What kind of guests?"
The attendant replied politely: "Yes, your Majesty is receiving two elf doctors."
"Elf doctors?" Duke Ferdinand frowned. "Is there anything wrong with your Majesty's health?"
"Don't worry, your Majesty is still in good health," the attendant said, "It's just that he's been a little out of sorts recently."
Out of mind?
Pei Dinan was startled for a moment, instinctively feeling that something was wrong, but before he could ask, two female silver elves wearing white long skirts with very similar looks, dignified temperament and beautiful appearance came from the front. The corridor came out from the corner and came into his sight.
The attendant said from the side: "It seems that the two doctors have completed their work."
Pedinan Wendell watched the two elf doctors who had never seen him walk towards him , he suppressed all unnecessary doubts and waited with the indifference that a duke should have.
There was only one corridor, and the two elf doctors inevitably came to Duke Ferdinand. They showed impeccable polite smiles, lifted up their long skirts and bent down to say: "Good afternoon, sir. Your Majesty is waiting for you. ."
