Chapter 334: Flack's Plan

The road at the edge of the forest was not smooth, and after bumping back and forth a few times, Nata gradually regained consciousness.

Listening to the voices of these guys, Nata quickly realized that she was in a bad situation—but she also confirmed a fact: she couldn't die for the time being.

The memory in her mind gradually cleared up, recalling what happened ten minutes ago, Nata only felt a little cold in her heart...

As a wood elf who has lived in the forest for nearly twenty years, it is difficult to escape her observation, but no matter how sensitive her senses are, it is still difficult for her to grasp the "shadow spell" that she has never seen before. machine. Nata only remembered... that she was wrapped around her ankles by the purple light that suddenly appeared at her feet, and then her whole body was instantly bound firmly by the chains that hit her from all directions. Just as she was about to open her mouth to shout, she immediately lost consciousness due to an irresistible drowsiness.

In other words, she was subdued without even the slightest reaction from the beginning to the end.

According to common sense, even if Nata didn't make a sound, the soldiers not far away could easily notice the abnormality—but because of the existence of the "Shadow Guardian Barrier", Nata disappeared directly on the battlefield in a coma From the beginning to the end, no one noticed her disappearance.

But at this time, the awakened Nata did not act rashly, and even tried to maintain the gentle breathing frequency before, with a gap in her eyes slightly opened, she relaxed her body, and carefully observed the surrounding scenery.

The scattered branches on the ground indicate that this is forest land, and you can smell the unique fishy smell near the water source. Nata confirmed that she is very close to the river next to the battlefield, but it is difficult for the primeval forest to have any iconic things as a reference. She squinted her eyes for a long time, but it was still difficult to judge how far she was from Luo Di and the others.

The chains on her body were very tight, let alone breaking free, even if she tried to use her strength, she couldn't do it—Nata didn't intend to struggle desperately to attract the other party's attention. She found that the only thing she could do now was to try to maintain a comatose posture, wait suitable time…

"Keep up with the team, and when we're across the river, those guys have nothing to worry about."

The voice of the bishop walking in front was very casual, as if he was just commenting on the surrounding scenery, but the subordinates behind him did not dare to neglect in the slightest, they all responded and sped up their speed slightly.

Nata's heart tightened. Although these people didn't know how to hide their figures, they would leave traces on the ground after all. But if they crossed the river, the difficulty of tracking would rise sharply, and it would even be impossible to continue tracking.

"Master Bishop, should we continue to pay attention to Captain Kevin's affairs?"

"He must be dead. We know this, and Lord Goethe also knows it, but what else can he do? It's just revenge—but he sent me all the way to investigate. Do you think it's to cooperate with that Juan?"

The bishop walking in front talked eloquently. He seemed to like the feeling of overlooking the whole situation. He waved the scepter in his hand casually, and then pointed to the quiet whispering forest on the other side of the river: "Kevin's matter is not important at all, important What matters is what we can gain from this trip.

"

"Compared with the news of where a hapless ghost died, the village of the wood elves is obviously more important."

"Adults are wise"

The echoing voice of his subordinates sounded, which made the bishop, who was very talkative, show a reserved but somewhat smug smile.

But they obviously don't know that Nata, who was caught by them at the back of the team, had witnessed the scene of Kevin being killed by Roddy.

"This elf will be of great use in the future—of course, everything needs to be done after the summoning is completed. It is estimated that Mr. Goethe will be successfully summoned soon, and by then... a mere wood elf village is at your fingertips."

"My lord, it seems that those heretics are carrying out some campaign against us in the southern part of the kingdom."

The "Rose Cross" and "Viper Cross" have always stood on opposite sides, so they both called each other "heretics". Regarding this topic, Bishop Flack showed a little disdain on his face, and said with a sneer: "'Holy Temple, Those self-righteous old fellows, Mr. Goethe dug a hole casually, they really took the bait obediently, and jumped into it one by one-heh...you just listen to these things, don't talk unnecessary nonsense with others. "

The subordinates responded repeatedly. They were all confidantes who had followed Bishop Flack for many years, so naturally they would not disclose the news... But obviously, they did not realize that all these words had been heard by Nata, who was familiar with the Bullinga language.

However, Bishop Flack obviously did not regard Nata as a threat—his strength was stronger than that of "Snake Tooth" Gallup who once stirred up the situation in Holy City, and unlike Gallup, the spell Flack studied It is mostly used for assistance and control, and it is difficult to have attack power at a low level. However, at the advanced level of 18, Flack has mastered more spells, and his "one-on-one" ability is far superior to other professions.

"My lord bishop, after this operation, Juan's team was basically wiped out, and after that..."

"You don't need to pay attention to the useless waste. Instead, you need to find out the background of this later cavalry team. I don't remember any noble in Efta who has such a powerful team."

The team continued to march, and Nata's mood became worse as she listened to their babbling words... because she couldn't find a way to escape, and she didn't even know how to leave some clues in the forest

Do you really want to be taken away like this?

Could Rody still not know what happened?

"Here we are, let's cross the river."

The bishop holding the scepter in front suddenly changed direction, because he left the shadow of the bushes, so the "Shadow Guardian Barrier" twisted a few times and then disappeared. And Flack led the team to the crossing point of the river.

Flack looked back at the footprints on the shoal, and smoothed out all the traces with a wave of the scepter. However, when the group of people were about to walk through the shallower river, the bishop suddenly stopped and looked at the slightly Rippled water surface suddenly raised the scepter in his hand...

Because the slightly raised river water proved that something seemed to be swimming quietly below.

But soon Flack put down the scepter, the enemy he was going to face would not be monsters in the water - one more thing is worse than one less thing, and leaving as far as possible without leaving traces is what I have to do now .

"keep going."

He waved his hand, then paused the scepter slightly. After concentrating his mind, he used the shadow energy to completely push away the river water in front of him and behind him... Walking in the river, Bishop Flack's robe showed no signs of getting wet. —But his subordinates obviously don't have this ability, they waded into the water one by one, tried to stabilize their bodies in the flowing river, and walked slowly...

There are two kinds of river crossing points, one is the river beach suitable for ship transportation, and the other is the shallow water area that can be walked through in front of you—but the so-called "shallow" is often waist-deep or even chest-deep. It takes a lot of effort to pass safely.

The shadow energy used by Flack actually consumes a lot of magic power, but he has long been used to it. Otherwise, how can a bishop maintain his image in front of these subordinates?

The river was not rushing, but it was quite strenuous to walk on such a shallow shoal, especially since there was an immobile wood elf in the team, so two soldiers had to lift Nata up at the same time to ensure that she wouldn't be injured by her head. Submerged in water and drowned.

The eight-person team walked for two minutes in the 15-meter-wide river before reaching the opposite bank, but being able to get here basically means getting rid of any team's tracking—and for Nata, this means Luo There's no chance of Dee ever finding her again...

Seeing the hope of escape gradually disappearing, Nata couldn't help feeling a strange emotion in her heart: If she disappeared for no reason like this, would Rody give up looking for her soon?

Knowing the fact that these guys are going to use her to deal with Elsa Village, Nata is already mentally prepared to die with the enemy—but when this idea came to her mind, she thought sadly... If she died like this, So, will Rody completely forget after many years... He once had a student who silently followed him to learn archery?

Many thoughts appeared in an instant, and disappeared in an instant. Nata remembered the bits and pieces of these days—after leaving Elsa Village, everything she experienced was wonderful enough to write a biography: She walked out of the village and saw Everything never imagined...

But now, Nata could only sigh from the bottom of her heart, perhaps she would never see the guy who led her out of the forest again.

She rarely has mood swings, and she feels a little lost for no reason.

The team had crossed the river beach and simply packed up their luggage, while Nata clenched her fingers slightly, ready to struggle violently—but at the moment when her muscles tensed, the team stopped collectively. He stopped the movement in his hands, and looked back to the other side of the river...

In the distance, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes.

Flack frowned, and at the end of his field of vision, ten cavalrymen came rushing forward. Judging from their attire, they were the same group of people who wiped out Juan's troops before. He is quite sure, but now he has no need to do anything: the edge of the Quiet Whispering Forest is only about 30 meters away. Once they enter the bushes, they who have activated the "Shadow Guardian Barrier" will have no reason to fight each other fight a tough battle

Although the cavalry could cross this crossing point, they would not be able to travel any faster than themselves, so Flack confirmed that he had enough time to take the people away.

He was not interested in wondering why he was exposed, but he just raised his scepter and ordered directly to his six subordinates: "Go to the forest!"

Everyone immediately stepped forward and prepared to run towards the jungle not far away, but at this moment, Nata, who was being carried all the time, suddenly stood up and fell back, and fell straight into the river behind under the astonished expression of the other party.

"puff--"

Nata, who was straight, fell into the shallow water area, and was soon choked on two sips of water because of her immobilized body, and coughed violently, but her movement stunned Flack and others——Bishop Flack His face was extremely gloomy, and he immediately shouted: "Grab her and get out of here!"

He raised his scepter and was about to perform "hypnotism" again, but when he raised his eyes, he suddenly found... one of the people in the team that was rushing forward in the distance unexpectedly jumped off at a place more than forty meters away from the mouth of the river. The war horse rushed directly towards the river bank...

What does he want?
