Chapter 2544 Sea of Flowers and Elves under the Moon
He once again used the thaumaturgy of "Powerful Spatial Perception" to determine his current location, and then kept the thaumaturgy turned on and turned into a swarm of butterflies walking through the forest. Not long after, Shade stopped by the forest stream that was illuminated by the moonlight and turned silver. After getting off the ground, he frowned and looked at the moon above his head again:
"What's going on?"
If there was no mistake in the thaumaturgy, Shade felt like he was spinning in circles. And every time he wanted to correct his direction according to the perceived correct direction, the direction would shift again when he moved forward again.
This is not the effect of the relics or the effect of the ring warlock's use of thaumaturgy, nor is it the abnormal spatial effect caused by the distortion of the world, but the forest itself is constantly blocking Shade from approaching the distant city.
"Do I have any grudge against this place?"
After thinking about it carefully, he threw out his glass slipper and disappeared by the stream. After making sure that he was back in the basement of his home and not still in the woods, Shade breathed a sigh of relief. He bent down by the wall and picked up the [Source of Chaos], and then once again passed through the [Space Maze] to the Vista Grove.
Stepping out of the tree hole and stepping on the floor tiles wrapped in soil, he released the bright yellow orb in his hand:
"Source of chaos, help me guide the way."
The bright yellow moonlight filled the road ahead. Relying on "strong spatial perception" and this sage-level relic, Shade set out again. But this time he did not transform and fly, but walked forward honestly with his feet.
But even so, Shade stopped again after ten minutes of journey. This time he did successfully move forward for a certain distance towards the city, but according to the current progress, if he wants to get out of this "maze" and approach Ximu Town, it may be dawn:
"Could Miss Danister be trapped in the forest like this?"
The current situation is very similar to the "space lost state" when the fog filled the Green Lake Island. In this case, it is best not to move around, but Shade has to go to the distant city.
Furthermore, after he had been active in the forest for half an hour, he almost felt that this land and forest were not specifically targeting him to prevent him from leaving, but that the place itself had such a nature, no matter who it was. It's the same as it comes.
Therefore, the scope of this weird space state should not be the entire Vista Woodland, but only a small area. Shade believes that as long as he goes far enough, he will be able to escape from here sooner or later:
"Even if I don't go home and sleep tonight, I have to move forward!"
There are no enemies in the forest, and the animals living here do not come to provoke Shade blindly. In the quiet night, there seemed to be only the hurried footsteps of strangers.
Not long after he continued forward, just when the effect of "Lucky Soy Milk" was about to completely disappear, a light actually appeared in the forest ahead. The light was not very strong, more similar to the color of starlight.
Xia De followed the light and pushed aside the grass, and his eyes immediately widened.
What came into view was a clearing full of flowers in the sea of trees in the forest. The blond elf was bending down as if to check the situation of this sea of flowers.
There were no branches above the clearing to block the starlight and moonlight, and the dots of light just now were caused by the magic she used to stimulate the sea of flowers.
Hearing the sound of walking and brushing aside the grass, the bent elf straightened up and looked at Shade. The long hair was not tied up, hanging naturally behind the hood, and she was covered with a silver-purple robe. In human terms, she looked about twenty-one or twelve years old. She was tall and her figure was difficult to see because she was wrapped in a robe.
Those calm emerald green eyes met Xia De's vigilant eyes at this moment.
In the stillness of the night, a traveler lost in the forest suddenly saw the elves in the sea of flowers. It was indeed a sense of déjà vu in a knight's novel, but no matter how much he thought about it, he knew something was wrong.
"Good evening." (Elvish)
The elf greeted softly, and the small silver-blue flowers swayed gently with the wind around them, and there were still little lights rippling above the entire sea of flowers. If it weren't for the thaumaturgy to determine the time, Shade almost thought he had traveled to the past era.
The elf is undoubtedly a ring sorcerer, but there is still a distance between the two, and Shade can only feel that she is the middle ring. And since the other party took the initiative to say hello, Xia De also said politely:
"Good evening, I am a traveler passing through here. May I ask why there is no way out of this forest?" (Elvish)
At this time, he was not even sure whether the other party was a human being. Since he had not collected any intelligence when he first arrived in the area, he reasonably doubted everything here.
The elf in the sea of flowers did not show any vigilance towards him. She tilted her head slightly and looked at Shade among the glowing silver-blue flowers. Her voice was unusually calm:
"Vestal Woodland has always had its own secrets. It has the most ancient ruins in the Old World, and also has the most 'forbidden areas' in the Old World. The area we are currently in resists the influence of any life. Leaving and entering, so more ancient plants are preserved here."
She pointed to the flower field next to her, which was only composed of small silver-blue flowers:
"The Green Star Flower, the book says that this plant that glows at night became extinct at the beginning of the Sixth Era, but I found the seeds of the flower in this forest."
"Hmm, so, you live here?"
The elf nodded, her expression still calm, and her body seemed to be glowing in the moonlight. The only pure-blood elf Shade knew before was Emilia. The strange elf in front of him was undoubtedly an adult compared to Emilia, taller and more mature in temperament.
"Yes, I live here. No, please don't step into my flower field."
She continued to use Elvish to stop Shade from trying to move forward:
"Stranger, if you try to leave here, this flower will guide you."
She bent down and picked a small flower from under her feet, held it with both hands and blew it gently, and the silver-blue flower floated towards Shade.
It stopped in front of Shade, shaking as if it wanted Shade to follow it and leave. However, Shade was not in a hurry to leave. On the one hand, he was not sure that the beautiful elf in front of him was worthy of trust. On the other hand, he finally met someone with whom he could communicate, and he also wanted to ask for more information:
"I am a foreigner and not very familiar with this land. Can I ask you some questions? I can pay you."
The elf in the sea of flowers under the moon seemed to want to laugh for a moment, but if you look closely, she is still very calm, but her emerald green eyes have become brighter:
"What do you want to know?"
"Can I ask for your name? You look very similar to a friend of mine. Are you also an elf from the Yuexi clan?"
The strange elf in front of him does look similar to Emilia, but it does not rule out that Shade is not good at distinguishing the face of the elf.
The tranquil elf in the sea of flowers nodded:
"Yes, I also belong to the Yuexi clan. Do you want to rely on this to build relationships?"
"No, no, I'm John Watson. I don't know what to call you?"
"You obviously gave a false name."
The elf continued to speak calmly, and Shade was embarrassed for a moment after being exposed, and then took the initiative to apologize:
"Okay, I don't want to reveal my identity. I'm really sorry for lying just now. So can you tell me how to travel safely through this woodland? It's not a one-time thing. After all, I may come here often in the future. I don't Will disturb you and won't pick any plants you grow."
The above conversations were all conducted in Elvish. I don’t know if it was for this reason that the strange elf actually didn’t ask Shade about the identity of this suspicious foreigner:
"This forest land also does not belong to me, and I have no jurisdiction over your activities here.
I can indeed give you a way to travel safely here, but what reward can you give? ”
"How about some Moonlight Water?"
Xia De suggested:
"Or other materials, but I need time to raise them. Of course, you can also entrust me to do things. Find people, kill people, find relics, and investigate past events. I can do all of these."
The elf in the sea of flowers shook her head slightly, as calm as the cold night wind:
"I just met you for the first time, and I won't let you do these things. Since you are going to the city, help me pick up an item from the local black market. Bring it to me when you come back and pass by here. , I will tell you the entrance to the black market and the transaction password."
This is indeed something that can be done easily:
"Help you pick up the goods? Do you trust me so much?"
"The tree tells me that you are trustworthy."
The elf in the sea of flowers under the moon whispered softly, his emerald green eyes faintly shining:
"There are many secrets hidden in the Vista Woodland, and this 'forest that cannot leave' is just one of them. This special area is actually not very large, at least not for middle-ring warlocks like us.
But if you want to go out, you don't rely on perceiving space, but perceiving trees and nature. The earth and trees will tell you how to get out of here. It's just that if it's a bit difficult to instantly know how to listen to the earth or the trees, take this with you. ”
More small flowers emitting silvery blue light flew into the air, forming a long line of flowers under the moon.
They, together with the Emerald Star flower that just tried to guide Shade, weaved into a beautiful garland. The wreath itself had light, and when it fell into Shade's hands, he felt the calm and ancient miraculous element.
"Wear it, and the forest will tell you the direction you are leaving. I have used thaumaturgy for the wreath, and it can be preserved for at least a month. But this is just flower preservation, it is still fragile."
"Thank you very much for your help."
Shad thanked the elf, and then asked:
"Excuse me, has anyone else been trapped in this area in the past week? For example, the red-haired sorceress."
The elf gently shook his head under the moon and reminded:
"You and I are the only ones active here lately.
Foreigners, after leaving this woodland, although there are no other dangers on the way to the city, they must still respect this ancient woodland and this city. Time has settled here, in Ximu Town. Please respect the forest and the earth. Please keep this in mind when you run into any trouble here. ”
