Chapter 449: No Risk, No Gain.
Although the situation was extremely critical, Chu Feng was not one to give up easily and was still thinking about ways to escape.
Right now, the most important thing is to figure out what happened here.
Is it the trunk of the holy tree of the elves?
Or is it the work of monsters here?
Only when we understand it can we make countermeasures.
Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief, faced Liu Ruyan, and asked: "How often is the saintess assessment held?"
Liu Ruyan said truthfully: "It's not fixed. Sometimes it's a hundred years, sometimes it's ten years or a few years."
Chu Feng's eyes flickered and he asked again: "Has any of the people who participated in the assessment before left the secret realm alive?"
"No."
Liu Ruyan shook his head.
Chu Feng's expression condensed, "Not one?"
"Um."
Liu Ruyan nodded.
Chu Feng's heart suddenly sank.
The Saintess Assessment Competition must have been held many times, but there has been no successful case so far. Everyone who participated in the assessment died in the secret realm without exception.
What does this mean?
It shows that something happened in the secret realm a long time ago.
It is impossible for the Elf Sacred Tree to not know this.
So why does it still require people to participate?
Obviously, it was intentional!
There is another point that Chu Feng doesn't understand. Since they know that participating in the assessment is so dangerous, why do Liu Ruyan and the four of them still participate?
Thinking of this, Chu Feng immediately asked: "Did you voluntarily participate in the assessment?"
"yes."
Liu Ruyan nodded.
Chu Feng frowned, "The risk factor of the assessment is so high, are you not worried at all?"
Liu Ruyan gave an explanation: "At that time, Lord Holy Tree issued us teleportation tokens, saying that if we encountered danger, we could teleport away by crushing the tokens, and there would be absolutely no danger to our lives. That is because of Lord Holy Tree's promise, we Only then will they be willing to participate.”
"It seems that you have all been deceived by the Elf Sacred Tree."
Chu Feng sighed softly.
"You're talking nonsense!"
Qi Fengxuan said angrily: "The Holy Tree is the patron saint of our elves. It is under his protection that the elves can stand for thousands of years. We are all the people of the Holy Tree, why does it deceive us?"
"You're a fool to count money after being sold."
Chu Feng sneered.
"Who are you calling stupid?"
Qi Fengxuan was furious.
"I am talking about you!"
Chu Feng snorted coldly.
"you..."
Qi Fengxuan's mouth trembled in anger, and when she was about to say something, she was interrupted by Liu Ruyan, "Qi Fengxuan, stop talking, now is not the time to quarrel."
Qi Fengxuan snorted and said no more.
Liu Ruyan then faced Chu Feng and asked: "Chu Feng, do you have any evidence to prove that Lord Holy Tree deceived us?"
Chu Feng said slowly: "I have three doubts. One is that the secret realms are connected. As we all know, it is very difficult to connect different secret realms. Most people have no such ability. Only those who know the secret realms well and have great Only people with magical powers can do it. Or, there are not three secret realms at all, but one, just three more portals."
"Second, the transmission token is invalid. The token was given to you by the Elf Sacred Tree. The reason why it is invalid is that either the token itself is fake, or the place is restricted by rules and cannot be transmitted."
"Thirdly, the Saintess Assessment has been held so many times, and so far it has not been successful. The Elf Sacred Tree still wants you to participate. It is obvious that you are here to die!"
"If it is just one doubt, it is not enough to prove that the Elf Holy Tree harbors evil intentions. But together with the three doubts, apart from the Elf Holy Tree, no one else has the ability to do it."
Upon hearing this, both Qi Fengxuan and Liu Ruyan fell silent.
Although I don't want to admit it, I have to admit that what Chu Feng said does make sense.
In this case, is it really the Elf Sacred Tree that is secretly causing trouble?
Deliberately killing his own people?
What's the purpose of this?
Qi Fengxuan looked at Chu Feng intently, "It is true that what you said makes sense, but why does Lord Holy Tree want to harm us?"
Chu Feng's eyes showed a deep look, "There may be something unknown hidden, which requires us to explore a little bit."
"How do you plan to explore?"
Liu Ruyan asked curiously.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs!"
Chu Fengxu squinted his eyes and whispered, as if he had made some kind of decision.
"What's the meaning?"
Liu Ruyan and Qi Fengxuan looked confused.
Chu Feng said lightly: "Everyone else should have been captured by monsters. Where were they captured? Why did these monsters capture them? I feel that the key is this. Perhaps only by being captured by monsters can we uncover the truth." Tell the truth!"
"What?"
Liu Ruyan's expression changed drastically, and she quickly persuaded him, "Chu Feng, don't be impulsive."
"This is a decision I made after careful consideration."
Chu Feng smiled slightly.
"But once you are captured by a monster, can you survive?"
Liu Ruyan was worried.
Chu Feng raised his eyebrows, "The current situation does not allow for any other choice. If I don't go, we will die here sooner or later."
"But.."
When Liu Ruyan was about to say something, she was interrupted by Chu Feng, "It's quite safe here. Before I come back, you don't want to go anywhere, just stay here."
"All right."
Liu Ruyan nodded, "Chu Feng, be careful!"
"Um."
Chu Feng smiled, then took a deep breath, opened his wings, and quickly flew to the street below.
Chu Feng's appearance immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding monsters.
In an instant, dozens of monsters rushed up.
Chu Feng fought with them for a while, pretended to be defeated, and was knocked to the ground by a group of fierce beasts.
As in the previous situation, these monsters did not kill Chu Feng, but dragged him in one direction.
"Chu Feng..."
Liu Ruyan bit her lips, tears were swaying in her eyes, and her worry was obvious.
Qi Fengxuan glanced at Liu Ruyan and whispered: "Liu Ruyan, you don't like Chu Feng, do you?"
At this time, Liu Ruyan's true feelings were not as simple as caring for ordinary friends. Maybe she really had feelings for Chu Feng.
Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes and said a little guilty: "We are just ordinary friends."
She couldn't tell whether she liked Chu Feng or not.
But one thing is certain, I don't want Chu Feng to get into trouble.
Qi Fengxuan didn't point it out, but sighed deeply, "If what Chu Feng said is true, and it is really the conspiracy of Lord Saint Tree, how should we face it?"
Liu Ruyan was silent.
The Elf Holy Tree is not only the patron saint of the Elf, but also the faith in their hearts.
Once the faith collapses, the blow to them will be unprecedented.
I just hope that Chu Feng's guess is not true.
.....
On the other side, Chu Feng was dragged by the monster for more than 20 minutes. When the monster was not paying attention, he secretly glanced at the tablet.
But he was surprised to find that the direction he was going was exactly where the light spot was.
According to his guess, the light spot should be a treasure.
What did the monster drag him to the treasure for?
