Chapter 2388 Accident

Who is Shallan?

Known as the leader in the magician world today.

Except for a few wizard magic masters and a few geniuses from the magician world, she has few opponents.

It was such a strong man, the spokesperson of the ancient organization, and a well-known national power in Moonlight City. After careful consideration, he admitted that Kelly was on par with her. What a high praise it was!

Of course, when I thought this way, I didn’t think that Shalan was flattering Kelly. On the contrary, from Shalan’s deep and nostalgic eyes, I read her honesty.

It seemed that this woman, whom Shalan called frivolous, greedy for money, and free, was truly a strong person.

Shalan’s evaluation was very pertinent, and Kailan’s reaction was very exciting. She was so excited that she wiped her tears, had a runny nose, and trembled all over. Later, she couldn’t even suppress the outburst of emotion, and she threw herself into my arms and kept using her. My clothes wiped the crystal tears.

But I suspect she was doing this not to wipe tears but to dry her nose.

Kailan doesn't wear makeup. As the old saying goes, it's hard to give up on your natural beauty. Wearing makeup will destroy the beauty of pure water and hibiscus.

So she can feel free to rub her tears, snot, and saliva on my clothes without worrying about turning into a messy face.

This is the advantage of going without makeup.

When she twitched and left my arms, the area of ​​my clothes near my abdomen was completely soaked, and this wetness was not the refreshing wetness of being wet by water, but had a sticky feeling. of moisture.

I am even more certain that Kailan threw herself into my arms and cried bitterly not because of an overwhelming emotional outburst, but simply because she wanted to find a place where she could wipe her tears, blow her nose, and wipe her saliva.

Obviously, my clothes are the perfect place.

I lowered my head and glanced at Baji's wet clothes. I couldn't say anything to Kailan, so I could only say goodbye with a wry smile. I took a new set of clothes from the closet, ran to the bathroom, changed them, and prepared a roll of toilet paper. Go back to the lobby, do your homework, and chat.

Dry clothes are very refreshing, compared to wet, especially sticky clothes, it is heaven and hell.

Shallan chatted with Kailan for a while, then suddenly turned to me and asked, "I heard that you went to the Islands not long ago?"

"Yes."

"How is it there? Is there any danger as rumored?"

"How should I put it? Well, it's a near miss."

"Is there any danger?" Shalan stared at me and said slowly: "Ever since the Celestial Clan gathered adventurers to attack the islands, there is no longer any safety there. The earth's crust shakes from time to time, volcanoes erupt from time to time, and magma erupts from time to time. It was rolling, the stench was filling the sky, the poisonous gas was lingering, and all life was dead. The last time I went there, what I saw was death everywhere."

"You must have not been to the Islands for a long time, right?"

"It's been a long time." Shalan raised her head, with a blurred light in her eyes, and she murmured: "But I often hear people say that there is still a place where no strangers should be disturbed, and death and despair are still lingering."

"Well, it's a bit scary to say that it's a place where no strangers are allowed to be disturbed. But if you want to say that it's surrounded by death and despair, that's true, but it's also offensive."

I paused and continued: "Look, I'm still alive and well."

"Yeah, you're fine." Shalan looked at me in awe. It wasn't until Kailan coughed that she came back to her senses, smiled apologetically, and said, "Sorry, I was too absorbed in my thoughts just now."

"It's okay, it's okay." I waved my hand magnanimously and said, "It's an honor for me to be watched by a beauty like you."

Shalan was startled, then smiled back.

I smiled in return, but the tender flesh on my waist kept feeling pain. This was Kailan's punishment for me.

"If I'm willing to take the liberty of asking, could you tell me what's dangerous about the forbidden areas of the archipelago?"

Holding my chin, I pondered for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me first, why are you asking me this? Do you have any special plans?"

"No," Shalan said lightly, "I'm just curious why the archipelago is still considered a forbidden area after so long. If I remember correctly, that volcano has not erupted for at least hundreds of thousands of years."

"Okay," I nodded, "I can tell you what I saw and heard, but please answer me one more question."

"no problem."

"I want to know what happened during the transition from ancient times to the period of goblin rule. Why did so many races disappear?"

"This." Shalan frowned slightly, looking troubled.

Seeing her unusual reaction, I thought for a moment and then said, "If it's really not convenient for you to say, there's no need to force it. This is just my personal doubt."

Shalan picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine, stared at me and said, "If I don't tell you, won't you tell me what's on the islands?"

I nodded and said: "Although it is not a courtesy, this is the premise for my answer."

After hesitating for a moment, Shalan sighed softly and said, "Okay, I'll tell you."

"Actually, I don't know exactly what happened. It's just that during that time, I always had an ominous premonition, and I would feel strange power fluctuations from time to time. This kind of power is extremely terrifying, even as a forest elf. I can neither find out its source, nor can I stop its spread."

"Later, the forest elf royal family called me back to my homeland, and I hid in the underground shelter with the royal family members. It wasn't until the strange energy fluctuation completely disappeared that we walked out of the shelter again and returned to the surface. What we saw was already a vast landscape. ruins."

Shalan said with lingering fear: "That was the closest I got to death. If the royal family hadn't called me back to the country in advance, if I hadn't hid in the underground shelter, maybe I would have turned into nothingness like the wreckage and ruins on the surface."

"The wreckage and ruins. Did you see the bodies?" I asked.

"No," said Shalan, "there is no corpse, not even a broken limb or arm. Except for some people like us who are hiding deep in buildings or hiding underground, there is no living person. No, not only living people, but not even a living creature."

"Oh? So, those beings deep in the Elf Forest are also products of the goblin rule?"

Shalan shook her head: "I don't know about this."

"Huh? Didn't you say that the whole world was in ruins? Didn't you say that you didn't even see a single living thing?"

Shalan shook her head and chuckled: "I'm sorry, I expressed it wrong. I mean, my country has been completely destroyed, but the location of my country at that time was not in Moonlight City, but in Dashai City. .”

"Dasay City, Dasay City." I murmured, "What about Moonlight City?"

"According to later generations, Moonlight City was also affected, but the Elf Forest remained unscathed."
