Dust of History Chapter 60: Everyone is busy


Asa woke up and felt himself floating in the water, a strange and gentle touch brushed his body, muscles and skin were reborn at a seemingly slow but inconceivable speed . This feeling of lightness and vitality finally stayed on the face. Slowly, Asa felt the light again, and saw a piece of green full of business. The green faded away, and he saw the light again, but now it was no longer the burning light, the sun was hanging in the sky as usual, casting warm and harmless light.

Asa sat up from the water, and saw that he was still in the sun well, and Luya was taking the leaf of the World Tree from his body. My whole body is shrouded in a layer of green light, bursts of harmonious and vigorous power are resonating around the body and the fluctuations of the sun well, the skin and muscles that should have been burnt like rice crackers now come off again. It grew on the body intact, as if nothing had happened.

He looked around only to find that, as if Vidnina used the Dark Dragon's spell last time, the area around the Sunwell was already a scorched earth space, with nothing left. The difference is that the dense ancient trees could be seen outside the clearing, but this time, the entire Whispering Forest seemed to have turned into a piece of rotten cloth with only a few holes left. The thickest old trees left here and there are scattered here and there in clusters here and there.

"Where are the other elves?" Asa asked Luya.

"Dead." Luya's head and face were covered in dust, and she was in a panic.

"All dead?"

"All of them are dead, not a single one remains, even the bodies were turned into ashes by the aftermath of the explosion, and they were blown to nowhere. The Forest of Whispering... is gone." Luya scanned the surroundings There was an empty piece of scorched earth, and the eyes were full of empty sadness, it seemed that even the sadness had no energy left.

"Since everything has become like this, don't be sad." Asa sighed. Although he himself felt that those elves who were extremely stupid were to blame.

"There's nothing to be sad about. In fact, I felt the result when they rejected my proposal. If belief becomes a shackle, it's only a matter of time before they perish." Luya's eyes were still filled with sadness, But not sad. Sadness dispelled all other emotions, only to find that she had a kind of firmness hidden in the deepest part. She asked Asa in a low voice: "Can you do me a favor?"

"What?"

"I want to take the leaves of the world tree to Tula Leon forest. I must find a place to protect the deadwood guard before it grows again, and I have to report to them. But I don't know the way, The last time I used the teleportation scroll to go back and forth. Take me there."

"This..." Asa hesitated for a while, although Rodhart's side is also important. But a completely ignorant elf woman running around the world with a leaf of the world tree that all necromancers dream of is undoubtedly a more dangerous thing. "Okay. Although I don't know where it is, but someone knows, I will take you to Oufu first, and let the Lord Sedros take you there." If Sedros still has the teleportation scroll of the Academy of Magic, then use all After rushing over, there is still time to return to the capital.

Luya nodded, and then waved to him: "Go out, I will use well water to water the surrounding ground, so that the trees will slowly regenerate."

Asa just stepped out of the sun well and immediately discovered a very serious problem. He subconsciously jumped to the rock beside the well and squatted down. "Do you know where there are clothes and pants?"

Luya took the leaves of the World Tree in her hand and took out the well water, and said lightly: "There are still some corpses outside."

In the city of Airi, the local officials recruited almost all the people who could write in the city to make an article praising and commemorating the imperial envoy.

The imperial envoy has not returned until now. According to the narrations of the soldiers who escaped and the believers of the God of Nature, the surrounding area of ​​the forest seemed to be a **** haunted by demons and ghosts. And then there was an unimaginable celestial phenomenon, a huge fire, and a huge explosion that almost shattered the entire Airy... These scenes are like the end of the world, and the imperial envoy is definitely in danger . As a local official, the guilt of ineffective protection is unavoidable. Losing an official is still a trivial matter, and if it is not done well, he will be beheaded. Therefore, the magistrate should explain as much as possible how dangerous the situation was and how powerless ordinary people were at that time in the report made with all the power of the city, how the imperial envoy faced the calm command of tens of thousands of mobs, and faced those How brave are the monsters that rushed out of hell, how they covered the innocent people and dealt with those evil monsters alone, and finally sacrificed heroically when no one could recover. The effect of this report should be very good. Many people shed tears of emotion when they tried to read it to the public.

But at this moment, the imperial envoy who should have died heroically after disappearing for a long time suddenly appeared, and he was accompanied by a beautiful woman in disheveled clothes.

The short-term embarrassment was immediately washed away by joy, as long as the imperial envoy is safe and well, who cares about what he did.

The imperial envoy hurriedly explained the aftermath, and even the command of the troops was thrown to the magistrate like trash. He only needed two fast horses and some travel items and set off with the strange woman. He didn't say where he was going or what he was going to do, and he even asked the magistrate not to reveal anything about him to anyone. But later, people always asked the magistrate about it, and Kugua expressed his understanding of the imperial envoy’s strange behavior like an old friend: “After going through so many major events, of course I need to relax and relieve the pressure. And Naturally, I don’t want other people to disturb that kind of relaxation.” The listeners also recalled the beauty of the strange woman, so they licked their lips and expressed their deep agreement with envy.

On the night they left, a group of people came to the Whispering Forest, which had become scorched earth. They lit torches and spent most of the night carefully searching the wasteland that was still emitting residual heat. They didn't walk out of this scorched earth until the sky began to light up.

There are still corpses and wreckage outside the forest. These things will probably keep Airy's magistrate busy for quite some time.

These people seem to be mercenaries. Airi's unrest during this period has increased the number of people eating this bowl of rice. But even those who had seen the killing scene felt creepy in the sea of ​​corpses.

But there are two figures standing quietly on top of the corpse. One was slightly rickety and desolate that is typical of the elderly, while the other was a handsome middle-aged man. He stood on a corpse with only half of his body left, but his posture and demeanor seemed to be in a romantic place full of crowns.

It's just that the faces of these two people are not relaxed, but it's not because of the endless corpses under their feet, but because they are looking at the group of people who are approaching. They just waited for these searchers here for a full night.

The group of people walked up to the two of them, and one of them, who looked like a leader, walked up to the two of them with a large package in hand and said, "Gentlemen, this is all the weird-looking things we found inside." something."

The middle-aged man took the package and opened it, and it was filled with some weird little things, most of which were the unicorns of wild beasts. He searched carefully and asked, "Have you looked for the well in the middle?"

The leader replied: "As you said, I searched carefully. But there is no corpse inside, nothing."

The middle-aged man frowned, and asked again: "Have you seen a green leaf?"

"Of course not." The leader replied, cursing to **** in his heart. In such a place where there is nothing left, not to mention leaves, it is impossible to leave even roots.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man frowned, and found something that looked like a handle from those things.

The leader explained: "According to what the magicians in our team have seen, this should be left by a very advanced magic scroll."

"I know." The middle-aged man sighed. There are two small skulls engraved on both ends of the thing, emitting a faint fluorescent light.

The old man came over to have a look, showed a cold smile, and said: "This unexpected discovery confirmed our inference. The evidence is solid. Let's go back."

"Two gentlemen, there is still half of the reward." The leader said coldly, touching the hilt of his waist with his hand. "Also, leave all the things in there. For the sake of letting us come to this ghost place to find these things, I won't kill you."

Unicorn horns are extremely rare magic items, such a large pile can definitely be exchanged for ten times their weight in gold coins. It was for these things that the mercenaries fought with their lives.

"That's right. Give them what they deserve." The old man said to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man looked coldly at the group of murderous big men in front of him, and began to mutter some words that no one could understand.

"It's a magician, and you want to fight back, kill them." The mercenary leader shouted, raised the long sword in his hand and stepped forward. All the mercenaries drew their weapons and rushed forward. It is a good opportunity for the magician who is so close to dare to chant the spell leisurely.

The old man looked at his companion in surprise, but completely ignored the group of wolf-like mercenaries in front of him. He didn't even look at them, he just raised his hand and yelled.

The mercenaries who were already in front of the two stopped immediately. The legs of each of them are stamping desperately, but they can't move forward, because they are all floating in the air~IndoMTL.com~ They can only dance and dance at a place not high from the ground, shouting and waiting for that The spell of the middle-aged magician is completed.

With a strange sound, the dozen or so people in midair instantly lost the shape they should have. Blood, muscles, and internal organs frantically poured out from their mouths, eyes, and under their clothes and armor. But in the blink of an eye, there were only a dozen skeletons covered in clothes and covered in flesh and blood left in the air.

The rushing flesh and blood were pulled by a suction force and pulled in front of the middle-aged man, solidified into a huge ball, which spun rapidly and shrank, and finally became a group of small blood-colored crystals that flew into the middle-aged man hands.

"It's overkill. But it's amazing that you can use this spell at your age." The old man nodded approvingly, but there was still a sneer on his face. "I know you are very angry. But there is no need to waste it on these trash. You will probably be busy when you go back." He sighed as if nostalgic. "It's been a long time since we had a meeting..."

The middle-aged man did not speak, and took out the teleportation scroll from his arms with a cold face, and the old man also took out one. After a burst of blue light, both of them disappeared.

The bone frame in the air finally fell down, making an unpleasant karaoke sound. Then it reverted to a dead wasteland.
