Chapter 2648 In Dire Straits
In the huge number one scholar's mansion, two figures stood side by side.
One of them was dressed simply, with a tall body, standing with his hands behind his back, looking sideways at the flowers in the altar.
This person is me.
The other one is dressed in fine clothes and has a jade belt. He has a graceful expression and a noble temperament, but his brows show murderous intent from time to time.
It was Elder Mai Sonoda.
After dozens of minutes of hard thinking, Elder Mai Sonoda finally came to her senses. Her expression was natural, but her aura was full of overbearing murderous intent, which made me, a person who has been around murderous intent all year round, tremble slightly.
Is this the strength of the former president of the Rose Legion?
I'm afraid it has already stabilized the top of the country's power.
It's funny that I used to be stubborn and reckless with others many times. Fortunately, she has a lot of elders and doesn't care about me. Otherwise, with just one move, I could be crushed like an ant.
After sighing with emotion, I poked my head and asked, "Elder, have you come up with any clues?"
Elder Mai Sonoda shook his head: "No matter political opponents or former opponents, they don't seem like people who can do such a thing."
I nodded thoughtfully: "I don't rule out this possibility."
Elder Mai Sonoda looked at me: "What do you mean?"
"The Elf Forest is listed as one of the most dangerous areas in Zephyr Continent. This title is well-known to passers-by." I explained: "Within the Elf Forest, there are terrifying creatures that can destroy the entire continent. They are The strongest among them were taken hundreds of millions of years ago. The shadows of the heavy blows given to them by the fairies did not dare to show their faces. However, this situation is limited to those with high intelligence, but there are not only those with high intelligence in the forest of elves. There are intelligent monsters and species that are very strong but extremely low in intelligence. They fled into the inner forest just because they were afraid of the threat of death. But as the years passed, these low-intelligence monsters and their descendants became more and more important to the goblin family. The fear will gradually weaken and eventually disappear completely.”
Taking a deep breath, I said seriously: "Without fear, they will only be controlled by their physiology and continue to repeat and complete biological instinctive behaviors, such as hunting and eating."
I raised my hand and pointed at the dancing butterflies not far away, and said softly: "Just like butterflies sucking nectar, those monsters will instinctively attack humans."
"I suspect that Beibei may have been attacked by them."
Although I spoke with a serious attitude and serious tone, Elder Mai Sonoda was a little disapproving.
She didn't think that the monsters in the inner forest would break through the barrier and sneak into the outer forest.
She feels that whether it is a monster with high intelligence or a monster with low intelligence, the fear of goblins and elves is still engraved in the bones, and will be passed on to the next generation through genes.
During this period, the fear may gradually weaken, but this is still not enough to affect the safety of Moonlight City.
Because the elite members of the Rose Legion patrol the periphery of the Elf Forest in small teams every day, their main task is to check whether there is any abnormality in the Elf Forest.
As for tasks such as preventing theft of tombs, the elite team is just passing by. After all, no one who is really capable of bringing things out of ancient tombs is a fuel-efficient lamp. They are either very powerful or have excellent escape skills. We really need to deal with this kind of thing. Guys, either you suffered heavy losses, or you spent a lot of effort and just failed to catch up, which would be embarrassing.
However, in fact, the number of adventurers and ordinary people who are truly capable of robbing tombs may not exceed a hundred. The vast majority of them are human beings living around Airui City, and are truly the masters of robbing and excavation in Moonlight City. , I’m afraid there are very few, including me.
If the excavation of tombs is a task that the Rose Legion elite team is unwilling to take responsibility for, then the Rose Legion elite team basically turns a blind eye to those who dare to poach in the Elf Forest.
It's not that they let poaching go, it's that the outer forest is controlled by the king of the forest, and they can't overstep their authority.
Although the King of the Forest usually looks naive and hospitable, once it starts to surge, it has the strength to compete with the monsters that have escaped from the Elf Forest in the water!
Let's put it this way, except for national forces that are extremely good at water warfare, most national forces will never be able to defeat that terrifying water monster in water where they have lost their advantageous terrain.
Even injuries may not be able to hurt it.
Although I am not a national power, I can still feel the overwhelming terror.
The King of the Forest, despite losing the advantageous environment, tore off one of the monster's tentacles, and worked together with me to rescue the little bear who was in dire straits.
This strength alone is enough to deter most national powers.
It is no exaggeration to say that if there is a national force to fight against the King of the Forest, the three or five of him who do not cooperate tacitly will not be enough for the King of the Forest to use a set of Bear King's Claws.
Among the poachers, six to seven out of ten only have the strength of ordinary adventurers. When encountering powerful giant wolves, giant tigers, wild pythons and other ferocious behemoths, being able to come back alive is already a blessing from the God of Creation. .
As for those ten or two strong men, when facing the King of the Forest, they would probably not be able to withstand three slaps, and then they would become a nutritious dinner for the King of the Forest.
Yes, you heard it right, the king of the forest is a cannibal, and don’t be surprised, because it is a bear, and it is not uncommon for bears to eat people.
The main reason why it doesn't eat me, or even the residents of Moonlight City, is that the creatures in the Elf Forest are spiritual and will not attack when faced with friendship and goodwill.
They either turn away or interact with humans for a while.
As for causing damage, it was always left to the enemy.
In addition to the elite team of the Rose Legion, there are still many strong people patrolling and monitoring the Elf Forest.
For example, Shallan, this purple-skinned woman wearing a violet on her head, is the person responsible for monitoring the Elf Forest in Tarakuta.
The main reason why Tarakuta sent her as a monitor was because of her bloodline - the owner of the dark elf bloodline among the forest elves.
Dark Elf bloodline is considered a relatively pure type among forest fairies, and its bloodline concentration is comparable to that of the fairy royal family among forest fairies.
In addition to her, there are still many ancient organizations in Moonlight City that are also monitoring the situation in the Elf Forest.
Because they all understand the same truth - when the nest is overturned, there will be no eggs left intact.
Once the monsters within the Elf Forest riot, destroy the barrier, and come out in droves, if they cannot be severely damaged and deterred in the first time, then the entire Moonlight City, and even the Zephyr Continent, will become the territory of the monsters.
By then, mankind will be plunged into unprecedented dire straits.
