Chapter 274 Strangeness
Elrond 6B, 3rd ll.
Camilla stopped in front of an unnamed hill, looked at the surrounding scenery, and then walked up an indistinguishable path.
Because of the "light feather technique", every step Camilla took on the snow left only a shallow footprint, her whole body seemed to be half suspended in the air, and she went up the mountain effortlessly. It took only ten minutes to arrive at the destination: a stone ruin located halfway up the mountain.
It is more than 60 kilometers away from the nearest village, and there is no one there all year round. The stone ruins in front of me are not human remains, but belong to the high elf civilization. Because of the year-round exposure to sunlight and air, several originally exquisite sculptures have blurred the facial features. Camilla stared blankly at the gravel for a moment, then turned her gaze to the group of figures who were out of place here.
They were all dressed similarly to Camilla, with thick cloaks and hoods pulled down. More than a dozen people stood there silently, as if they were waiting for something silently.
"Camilla."
She opened her mouth to announce her name, then raised her hand and made some kind of polite gesture, bowing slightly
"You are the youngest official member of the Holy Society?" The voice of the guy standing in the middle of the crowd was cold, and Camilla could only see his slightly pointed chin, but she didn't know that the other party's gaze at this time was full of scrutiny ——What he spoke was not Bullingar, but High Elf: "I am your captain Spark, return to the team now, and stand by."
"Yes, Lord Spark."
Camilla bowed, then silently stepped aside.
Not long after, two more people arrived. Spark, who was wearing a black robe, glanced at the crowd, and said: "The time has come, and there are fifteen people in total, that is to say...'Holy meeting, the task arranged this time requires us to Fifteen people to finish it."
He paused, glanced at the hooded figures, and continued to speak in Gujing Wubo's tone: "The Holy Society has noticed the sign that the 'time stagnation barrier' is about to stop functioning, so we must immediately Go to control the city and search for the whereabouts of the 'charged spar'. What needs to be said has already been said in the letter, so I will stop talking nonsense, now... come with me."
Camilla glanced around and then lowered her gaze—although everyone around them pulled their hoods and didn't even pass each other's names, but as a member of the "Holy Society", she can be sure that they all have a common goal. Identity: High Elf descendant.
That's right, all the people present had the blood of the high elves on their bodies.
The same goes for Camilla.
The full name of the "Sacred Council" is "San Vallarno High Elf Noble Council". It is different from the "Rose Cross", a sect that expands through preaching, but it is a small organization with a strict assessment system and inheritance method-its existence is unknown, and its members are hidden in various parts of the mainland...
For example, Camilla, during the twelve years in Mogra Village, who would have thought that she would be an "arcanist" whose strength reached the fifth level?
Although there were only fifteen people on this trip, none of them were mediocre. The winding mountain road that normal people have to walk for several hours down the mountain has become a smooth road that can be slid in a straight line under their feet. Ten minutes later, the group left the foot of the mountain and entered the edge of the bordering forest.
"Arrive in Elson in two weeks."
The leading leader pointed to Camilla, "Young man, open the way ahead."
It takes a lot of energy to open a road in the forest, Camilla frowned slightly, and then answered in a low voice. She knew very well why Spark chose herself: Among all these members, she was the youngest, and she had not participated in the activities of the Holy Church for a long time... To some extent, this should be regarded as the "veteran" versus the "new recruit". "The beating.
Although some grievances, but not unacceptable. The "holy meeting" system is strict, and it is completely crushed by officials at the first level. Camilla knows the truth, so she didn't make any arguments. She silently walked in front of the team, opening the way with one after another arcane spells.
However, while advancing silently, the voice of discussion behind him seemed indifferent and slightly sarcastic.
"Is this the Camilla who became a regular member at the age of 18?"
"Heh... I have lived in seclusion in the countryside with my children for more than ten years. No matter how talented you are, now there is no light to speak of.
"It's because she rejected the extraordinary promotion from the Holy Council?"
"Who knows, maybe she just said it out to fool people."
On February 1st, Kieger Town.
[Judgment of the Throne of Bones] Countdown: 131 days.
The originally chaotic town has restored order. Soderol was born in a noble family. He had been exposed to many similar things when he was a child. With his meticulous mind, he could handle these things with ease.
After the wolverine mercenary group was cleared out, not only the local mercenary group or other forces, but even the lord knights who originally belonged to the Viscount of Telanca basically calmed down, sending letters expressing submission and A little "tax money" to show sincerity.
During this period of time, the third batch of transportation team from Elsa Village has completed its task. The 20 Templar soldiers have officially become a fixed escort team, and they have begun to pay a lot of military pay, while the remaining 40 scouts and 20 Templar knights have officially reorganized into a mobile cavalry team. However, they did not conduct training in the past few days, but packed their bags collectively and prepared to set off.
"What should be arranged has already been arranged. The butler sent by the Duke of Angmar really helped me a lot. It is enough for me to control the overall situation when I am not here."
The original Viscount's Mansion has now become the Baron's Mansion. In the open space in front of the gate, Suo Deluoer was talking to Roddy while carefully observing with the long sword in his hand, "To be honest... If it weren't for these housekeepers, I would still I really thought you ransacked the duke's mansion directly, this sword—is it really the 'Guardian Fang'?
"You asked this question three times, and I answered three times 'Yes,, why are you asking now?"
"But..." Suo Deluo scratched his head, and he was so calm in the past that he actually looked helpless and excited: "But... isn't this the sword of Duke Cosmo Lucifron?"
The "Cosmo" in his mouth is the first Duke of the Luciferon family and the founder of the family, and the "Guardian Fang" is his original sword. After Suo Deluo was successfully promoted to "Ghost Rider", Rody immediately armed him to the teeth, and even the plate armor he was equipped with was pure tank equipment of the elite level.
Not only Soderol, but Carter, Ruger and the twenty most powerful cavalry in the scouting team were all replaced by long swords with magic attributes by Rody—he was really not polite to the Duke, and almost took the weapon away. All the weapons that can be used at this stage in the showroom were taken out, and his cavalry regiment was strengthened to the extreme.
Seeing Suo Deluoer's stuttering look at this moment, Rody couldn't laugh or cry: "You don't want it? Don't want me to go to Luge."
"I, I, I want to..."
Soderol ran away in a hurry, as if the sword was as important as his own son.
Looking at his back, Rody finally understood Suo Deluoer's special hobby: love sword like life.
He usually looks serious, but since he took this long sword with a long history, Suo Deluoer has not slept well for two or three days in a row, and often even got up in the middle of the night to draw his sword and mutter a few words Lie back down again.
Roddy didn't care about this, because he thought it was normal for people to have a little "quirk", but when he thought about his "quirk", he couldn't find any answer for a long time, and finally he could only come to one conclusion
"I'm really more normal than anyone else"
Then he ignored Akasha's gentle gaze and went to practice arrows by himself...
This made Akasha secretly sad for a long time.
I haven't seen Rody for many days, and the mood after the reunion is always happy. And the suit that Rody brought her made this gentle pastor almost cry with gratitude.
The reputation of "Respect" is not in vain. Before Rody left Hollier City, he made a lot of purchases at the "Rose Cross" armory. At the end, Benjamin waved his hand: "Free of charge."
So Akasha got this sophisticated "pious set" consisting of robes, leather boots, trousers, wristbands, cloak, gloves and belt. This equipment tripled Akasha's attributes, increased the healing effect by 6 skills and added two special effects, and her strength jumped two steps.
Luo Di only cares about strengthening his team, but he doesn't know that the little pastor's heart was pounding and pounding after being hit by the "luxury gift package". He blushed and stuttered when he saw Luo Di for the first two days. In the end, it didn't take long to hear that Nata's leather armor was made by Rody himself, and immediately hugged the pillow and lost sleep for several nights...
Later, Akasha and Suo Deluoer were seen by Rody with their panda eyes on their faces. This guy laughed "hahahaha" for a long time, but the little pastor was very angry.
"He did it on purpose, how could he do this"
When the whole team was about to set off from Kieg Town, Akasha pouted and felt aggrieved. Every time she saw Nata in front of the team carrying a brand new longbow, she complained a little more to Roddy in her heart. : "Are wood elves that attractive?"
And Rody, a guy who considers himself "normal", didn't realize what happened at all. He stood in front of the team with a serious face and referred to the [map bar] to confirm the route of the trip, with a rather dignified aura.
The mercenaries Henry and Buffon also got new equipment, but they didn't set off with the team, but were mainly responsible for the safety of the roads and trade projects in Elsa Village. When looking at Roddy, there was undisguised awe and gratitude in his eyes.
At noon, all preparations were completed. Before leaving, Rody and Soderol had a small disagreement on the route, but after Rody whispered the reason, Soderol finally agreed to his plan.
"Set off"
With an order, a cavalry regiment full of 60 people, 120 entourages, and nearly 40 carriages followed Rody on the journey to the Sola sentry.
Nata walked silently in front of the team holding the longbow given by Rody.
Akasha was holding "Energy Essence" and followed Rody, her eye circles were still a little dark, and while enlightening herself, she glanced at Nata and Rody, obviously still a little depressed.
Suo Deluoer wore a thick cloak to open the way ahead, the morale of the soldiers was high, and the group quickly left the area of Kig Town and disappeared into the Silent Whispering Forest.
Through the forest, across the snow-capped mountains, and on the rugged snowy road, this team will have to walk for a month and a half to reach the Sola sentry...
