Age of Adepts

Chapter 681: Chasing the murderer on a moonlit night

Views:

Under the bright and cold moonlight, Ai Jiaye was running fast.

The ancient trees tens of meters high are like walking on the ground under her feet, and the low cliffs and streams are left behind by her in an instant.

The damp night wind came head-on, wet her leather armor and cheeks, but couldn't quench the anger in Ai Jiaye's heart.

Hearing the news of the attack on the Quillins hut from a hippogryph shooter, Ai Jiaye embarked on the journey alone without waiting for the arrival of the elf temple envoy.

When she was about to set off, the defenders of Tianshui City were still trying to assemble.

Since the enemy dared to invade the Quellings Hut, which was less than 200 miles away from Tianshui City, it either meant that they were powerful and not afraid of the counterattack of Tianshui City defenders; or it was a conspiracy to call out the Tianshui City defenders.

Therefore, the elf commander of Tianshui City and some high elves quarreled in the meeting hall, arguing over the scale of sending troops.

Just like the rich and powerful in human society, there are also some special classes in the kingdom of elves - high elves. The so-called high elves are still forest elves, but their bloodlines are older and longer.

He (she) is proud of this, thinking that only the high elves are the purest and noblest forest elves. He (she) refused to intermarry with civilians, and tried their best to protect the so-called family blood from being "polluted" by the outside world. He (she) has great power, and most of the elders and councilors of the elf kingdom can only be served by high elves.

In Tianshui City, although the elf commanders have absolute military command, they cannot completely ignore the protests of these high elf dignitaries.

As soon as he received the news of the attack on the Quillins Hut, the elf commander planned to send all the air troops to support there in advance, and the ground troops also dispatched a minimum scale. It is a pity that under the protest of the high elves, the types and numbers of troops dispatched have been repeatedly reduced.

Unable to bear such ruthless and cold-blooded procrastination, the irritable Ai Jiaye angrily chose to go alone!

There are as many as five or six strong elves who made the same choice as Ai Jiaye, all of whom are 'wanderers' with 2nd and 3rd level strength and are unwilling to be restrained by the army.

It's a pity that their speed and physical strength can't compare with the sturdy Ai Jiaye, so they were quickly left behind by the Spear of Revenge in the hundreds of miles of competition ahead.

How heroic and passionate it is to walk in the forest and sea in the holy and beautiful moonlight!

If Ai Jiaye's heart hadn't been filled with worries about her tribe, she would have screamed at the sky at this moment, happily looking for a powerful monster to compete with.

Ai Jiaye, the Spear of Revenge, may not have a great reputation among the elves, but in the World of Warcraft circle in the Central Mountain Range, she has the resounding title of "Female Crazy"!

Whether it's the mighty Wyvern King, the mighty giant ape, or the sinister and cunning silver-tailed fox, they've all been harassed by her so much that they want to cry and suffer unspeakably. As for other monsters, as long as they have some prestige and prestige, she will block the door to challenge them.

It can be said that Ai Jiaye, Spear of Vengeance's terrifying combat skills come from thousands of life-and-death challenges. And the large and small scars and scars all over her body are the best proof of her crazy energy and fighting will!

Although the forest elves are the masters of the Jialan Continent, it is still very dangerous to cross the magical forest on a moonlit night.

Every night, those wild beasts and fierce beasts that hide in the caves during the day will come out in full force, looking for fresh flesh and blood in the depths of the dark and sheltered forest. Most of the wild beasts are affected by the power of nature and will not actively attack the forest elves, but there are still some fierce beasts that will launch surprise attacks on the elves under the influence of hunger or tyrannical consciousness.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the forest elves will also abide by some unwritten rules, and never approach or pass through the territory of those ferocious beasts and birds of prey at night.

However, such a provision is useless to Ai Jiaye. She even ran while raising her head and making a long and continuous whistle, actively challenging the monster king in the nearby forest.

It's a pity that her voice or breath has long been known by Warcraft. Therefore, the mountains and forests she passed not only did not send back any roaring responses from monsters, but became quiet instead. All the monsters will temporarily stop their hunting activities and hide in the deep bushes, hoping that this 'devil head' will leave their territory as soon as possible.

Even with Ai Jiaye's physique, running down the 200-mile mountain forest path in one breath is drenched in sweat.

As she drew closer to the Quellings Hut, she also began to meet some elves who had escaped from there. From their mouths, Ai Jiaye heard some of the worst news in pain.

A soaring fire turned the former elf town into a terrible fire scene with flaming flames.

Before entering the Quellings hut, the oncoming heat waves and lingering tongues of flames can force people back again and again, not daring to get close to the fire.

Several elves who escaped from here knelt down in pain on the edge of the fire, weeping bitterly, distraught.

And beside them, Ai Jiaye resolutely walked into the fire scene one step at a time, emitting purple air waves all over her body.

Quellings Cottage is a medium-sized elf town. The central area is composed of twenty or thirty large old trees with crowns as high as 100 meters and huge shade stretching into the sea.

Unlike the straight and uniform roads in human settlements, elf villages and cities almost never see any wide and flat roads. The houses and buildings of the elves are built at the joints of the thick branches of the tall and ancient trees, and the bridges and vines are used to travel between them.

But now, this beautiful and prosperous elf town has been burned down by evil enemies. Every ancient tree within a three-mile radius was engulfed by the sea of flames, twisting and struggling in pain amidst a burst of flames.

Amidst the flames soaring into the sky, Ai Jiaye walked solemnly in the sea of flames.

She used violent sacrificial fighting spirit to push away the flames lingering around her side, her eyes flickered quickly, looking for the enemy's whereabouts.

The enemy obviously didn't go far!

Because although the flames were fierce, Ai Jiaye still saw large black blood stains on the trunk, ground and branches. And around the treant warriors in the center of the town, Ai Jiaye even saw the remains of black beetles covering the entire woodland.

Several treant warriors had obviously fought to the last moment of their lives.

Beside their slumped torsos, the thick swarm corpses almost covered half of their bodies. And their torsos are covered with countless dense scars of various sizes.

And at the edge of this tragic and tragic battlefield, Ai Jiaye found a handful of ashes even more strangely.

Ai Jiaye squatted beside the ashes, grabbed a pile of ashes with his right hand and rubbed them.

One after another, they are as light as nothing.

It's a pinch of almost completely burnt ashes.

Ai Jiaye couldn't help but narrowed his eyes.

In such a ferocious fire, it is not uncommon to see some burning ashes. But it is strange to burn any substance so thoroughly that not even a bit of bone residue or minerals are left behind.

In Ai Jiaye's impression, only after the death of those special spiritual bodies or undead creatures would such a strange phenomenon occur. So if my deduction is correct, it can only mean that there are some powerful undead creatures in this witch team.

Undead are evil, and so are witches.

It doesn't seem so unexpected that they come together!

The only thing that surprised Ai Jiaye was what method those hateful witches used to concoct such a large number of terrifying zerg. If the zerg are so massive, what methods are used to evade detection by elf patrols and ubiquitous aerial sentries

While secretly surprised, Aijia Yewu turned his face, and his sharp eagle-like eyes focused on a place in the forest glade densely covered with small mounds and wormholes. And there... the ignited fires were particularly dense.

It seemed... it seemed... the departed witches were trying to cover something up with the fire.

Ai Jiaye tapped her toes and came to the clearing in an instant.

As soon as his feet stepped on the ground, Ai Jiaye's face changed slightly.

There is a hole in the ground, and the sound of stepping on it is slightly different from the solid ground.

Without hesitation, Ai Jiaye made a vertical leap, and a throwing spear in the leather bag behind her appeared in her hand in an instant. Inhaling energy in the air, the violent purple sacrificial aura quickly gathered on the spear.

In the next second, a purple phantom that was difficult to detect with the naked eye spanned a distance of more than ten meters and erupted in the center of the forest glade.

The violent shock wave suffocated the sea of fire around the open space, and the scorched land was instantly collapsed into a large sunken pit. When the dust cleared, the jaw-dropping scene in the pit appeared, and Ai Jiaye, the Spear of Revenge, exploded his heart and lungs in an instant.

At the bottom of the big pit, it was completely laid out by a large pile of flesh and bones and a pungent, foul-smelling, horrible slime. And among these 'debris', there are still many white cocoon fragments and dying larvae that have not developed.

Looking at these strangely shaped bones, Ai Jiaye can almost outline their appearance before they were alive, and even imagine the great pain they endured at that moment.

With an angry roar, Ai Jiaye jumped into the air with one foot, and the spear of revenge flashed quickly in his hand, and a ring-shaped explosion point exploded around the deep pit one after another. Under her intentional control, the explosion shock wave surged toward the periphery, instantly clearing the center of the town's sea of flames.

The witches set the fire here obviously because they didn't want the elves to discover their evil deeds, but they didn't expect Ai Jiaye to come so fast and in such a hurry.

Ai Jiaye forcibly extinguished the fire around the deep pit with violent power, and then turned around and ran towards the southwest of the town.

The enemy is not far!

If they are still carrying the spoils, I will definitely be able to catch up with them!
