Demon Lord

Chapter 226 Secret

Nata didn't show her annoyance towards Rody, but her tone changed when she remembered these things. Perhaps because the tree hole was dark, Brody didn't notice her strangeness—but obviously the village chief didn't pay attention to Nata at this time, and what he was thinking about in his mind was still Rody's letter. the place-name mentioned in.

After a few simple inquiries, Brody, who confirmed that Nata was not injured, felt relieved. Nata's habitual silence chilled the atmosphere. After a few seconds, Brody brought up the topic just now——

"Elson...Elson...Where did Rody know the name?"

This kind of question is more like talking to himself. He didn't wait for Nata's answer, but turned around and began to search. In the dark tree hole were placed the thick books that he found from the ruins of Wagla. The conditions in Ersa Village are simple, and there are no exquisite bookshelves to store them here, so Brody can only put them on dry wooden boards. For this reason, it took him a lot of effort to find the book he needed .

"In the future, we must build a special library. Put these things here... It's really a shame to our ancestors."

Lowering his head and blaming himself for a few words, Brody pulled out a book with a black cover and slowly flipped through a few pages. In the densely packed high elf text, he finally found what he was looking for—"...announcing a comprehensive contraction of defenses in Wagra City At that time, the only fortress that was still resisting on the land was Elson—it was called the lighthouse of "Last Hope" along with Wagla, and the orcs had to stop their offensive pace here ..."

In fact, Brody can't remember what "Elson" specifically represents. The books taken out from the ruins of Wagra are vast, many of which are theoretical knowledge of elements, and more of them are quite a few literary works similar to biographies and epics , but only this black book records the battles of the last period of time before the destruction of the High Elf civilization...

The old village chief only vaguely remembered that "Elson" was a high elf fortress, but he didn't have a deep understanding of what this fortress specifically represented - until he read this passage, Brody Only then did I gradually realize that the city mentioned by Rody seems to be a little... different.

"...On July 2nd, the news of the fall of Elsen Fortress came, and this fact hit all the High Elf people. As the only fortress outside the imperial city of Wagra, Elson was three years after the war began. It attracted most of the firepower of the orcs within a short period of time. As one of the few strongholds with 'consciousness', no one believed that it would be breached. Some people said that Elson's fall was not because of the orcs, but—"

The handwriting on the back was a little blurry. Brody spent a long time distinguishing it, but he couldn't understand it. After turning over a few pages, some other information was recorded on it: "...the guardian of Elson, the great arcanist Khadgar fell , eyewitnesses confirmed that after the city's enchantment was destroyed, Khadgar used the "time-space cycle" curse to permanently seal the entire fortress...and return the fortress' self-awareness to a state of chaos..."

What I saw one after another can be called "secrets". These unknown historical details made Brody fall into contemplation—although I don't know what the current level of human magic research is, but what can be confirmed is that... The magic level of "self-awareness" born of arcane art is absolutely not mastered by the current human beings, and they have never even heard of it.

What is the effect of the forbidden spell "Time Loop"? How long will it last? These questions are also not clear to Brody, and the books behind him may find the answer—however, it will take time.

Slowly closing the book in his hand, Brody closed his eyes slightly. After careful memory, he began to solemnly write down the general content he found on the back of the letter paper. After a while, he returned the folded letter paper To Nata, then asked: "Didn't Roddy explain anything else?"

"He said that he wants to circulate here... the currency is still something," Nata thought for a while, frowned slightly, and her tone unconsciously carried a trace of resentment, "I will return with the team after the team completes the trading task. This is his assigned task."

Nata seldom spoke so much. Brody could clearly feel her dissatisfaction. He wanted to persuade her, but thinking of her temper, he finally shook his head and said in a low voice: "If you are tired, Just come back."

Such words naturally did not get an answer, Nata looked away in silence, not knowing what was going on in her heart.

Brody didn't say anything else, and after finishing the conversation, Nata left the tree hole and came to the open space. At this time, Elsa Village is bustling like never before because of the human caravan that just arrived——

The goods piled up on the ground, tall templars, shiny armors, pack horses and other new things made the wood elves very interested. Although the language was different, the communication of gestures and expressions was basically What they have in common is that the village, which is usually very quiet, has a feeling of "crowding with people".

The caravan not only sells things, but also buys the herbs and animal skins left by the wood elves themselves. Fat Henry is now the leader of the caravan. However, it is clear that the wood elves still generally accept "barter" and are not interested in currency. After working all morning, the copper coins and silver coins prepared are basically stored in the wooden box, which makes Henry a little depressed.

Looking around, Nata saw that Hugo was waving a machete with a curious expression on his face, and a younger elf was running past holding a clay pot of honey, followed by a group of gluttons who wanted to try something new—such a scene It made her feel more and more that her mission was really boring... As expected, she should practice archery hard under the guidance of Rody.

Even if you just let yourself practice target shooting, it's better than just wandering around here bored.

The more she was free, the more resentment towards Rody in her heart became clearer. Nata pursed her lips slightly, and was about to take a look around the village, but when her eyes turned to the jungle not far away, she suddenly stopped pace.

Nata was no stranger to the sound of rustling, because it was usually the sound caused by the hunters in the village when they returned from outside. However, for some reason, after listening for three or four seconds, she felt a little uneasy. Emotions suddenly rose from the bottom of her heart. She frowned and looked at the still unaware clansmen and Templars in the village. After thinking about it, she ran towards Buffon who was on guard outside...
