Branches and leaves were taken by Ar all the way to a forest on the edge of the high elves' gathering place.
A variety of creatures inhabit this forest, which is an indispensable "circulation circle" for Arthur Crowe. In addition, the other side of the forest is the reason for the forgotten place. There are always inspection teams patrolling the interior of the forest. .
If Zhiye is discovered by those inspection teams, not only Al will face an extended confinement time, but even she may be directly locked in the Hall of Contemplation.
However, Zhiye felt that instead of caring about when he would run into the patrol team, he might as well be concerned about when he would collapse on the ground from exhaustion!
Zhiye has never been so hungry in her life. The hunger in her stomach made her fall into a weak state. Al, who was still energetic at the beginning, gradually slowed down her pace because of hunger.
What the hell happened to Arthur Crowe
Zhiye sensed the magic power in his body, and there was no reduction at all, indicating that the condition of the holy tree was still very good, but this frequent hunger made Zhiye very uncomfortable.
If this mutation started yesterday, then she hadn't eaten anything for almost a whole day.
"Zhiye... have you arrived at the Forgotten Land?"
In the end, Al was too tired to run, so he could only walk forward with Zhiye holding her hand.
"No… "
Zhi Ye walked towards the depths of the forest with his own consciousness, and at the same time was alert to all the subtle movements around him.
In this weak situation, she met the patrol team, but she didn't even have the ability to escape.
"Are you here yet?" Al asked again before he took a few steps.
"No, we seem to be lost."
Zhiye glanced around the forest, Zhiye remembered that the edge of the forest seemed to have been set up by the elders to confuse the intruders with a magic circle, and any creatures close to the forgotten land would be like entering a labyrinth.
"There seems to be a bird on the tree," Al said suddenly.
This sentence made Zhiye slightly startled, she immediately turned around and patted Al's cheek lightly with both hands.
"Wake up, don't use magic here, it will attract the inspection team!"
"But I'm already starving."
Al's hunger far exceeded Zhiye's expectations, which might be the reason why she needed to maintain a large amount of magic power in her body. Before Zhiye could say the next word to her, Al's body fell backwards.
Zhiye quickly grabbed Al, and after a moment of silence, he could only carry Al, who had fainted from hunger, on his back.
Maybe she should take the initiative to go to the inspector to explain the reason now? If they continue to get lost in this forest, they are likely to become the first pair of high elves to starve to death at their doorstep.
But Zhiye didn't do that, a strange belief supported her to carry Al back into the depths of the forest.
The sense of hunger gradually blurred her consciousness, and in the end Zhi Ye didn't know how long she had walked. When she took the next step, her whole body slid down a slope.
The branches and leaves finally fell into the wet pile of leaves, and the tired feeling swept the branches and leaves, and she felt that she could not even open her eyes.
But vaguely, the branches and leaves seemed to smell a fragrance, a fragrance that she seemed to have smelled there, but her head was too heavy and she couldn't remember it.
Wait... is this the aroma of the food
The branches and leaves reluctantly propped up their body and wanted to continue to carry Al on his back and walk in that direction, when Al, who was in a coma, suddenly woke up.
In the vagueness, the branches and leaves seemed to see the star-like light in her eyes.
"It's a cake!" Al's excited voice echoed in Zhi Ye's ears.
Zhiye could only lie on the ground and watch Al, who should have lost his strength, suddenly stand up, and then quickly disappeared from her field of vision.
But it didn't take long for Al to remember that he had forgotten something, and turned back in an instant to carry the weak branches and leaves on his back.
Al ran out of the forest with the branches and leaves. The dazzling sunlight made the eyes of the branches and leaves a little unable to adapt. After a period of time, the branches and leaves gradually saw the distant scenery clearly.
Forgotten Land!
From the outside, it looks like a hill that has been covered with vines and moss, but how could there be a tavern in such an abandoned place
Wait... I didn't see Zhiye in the tavern, but Zhiye saw a small cart made of wood at the entrance of the Forgotten Land, and the smell of cake came from that cart.
"Wait... Al!"
Branch wants to remind Al that there is a defensive magic circle around the Forgotten Land.
"And baked cookies!"
But Al's mind was already controlled by her appetite, and she ran directly to the car.
The defensive magic circle around the Forgotten Land did not work, and Al easily took the branches and leaves through the barrier of magic power to the car.
At this time, Zhiye also saw the figure standing next to the car, a... very beautiful "human girl".
"Why... why are you here?"
It was only at this time that Zhiye came back to his senses and realized that it was abnormal for humans to appear in Arthur Crowe, and in the worst case, it would bring devastating disaster to Arthur Crowe.
"I want a strawberry cake and a pack of blueberry cookies thank you!"
But before the "human girl" could respond to Zhiye's questioning, Al said directly and loudly what he wanted.
"Human Girl" also cooperated and packaged the items on the cart shelf and handed them to Al.
"Hmm... Can I pay with leech savings here?"
Al has been to Nolan and still knows that money is needed to exchange items between humans, but unfortunately she does not have any currency of any human country on her body.
"There is no need to pay, these are given away for free."
When the "human girl" said this sentence, Zhiye felt the strangeness of the matter even more. Just when she was about to remind Al to be careful of poison, Al had already shoved the cake directly into her mouth.
"Zhiye, you can eat biscuits if you don't mind." Al felt Zhiye's gaze, and seemed to think that the other party looked at her with such terrifying eyes because she ate the cake.
"… "
Branch and Ye fell into a long silence again. She looked at the package of cookies that Al handed over. There was a mix of blueberries and milk in it. For those who were already hungry, this was definitely an irresistible temptation. .
So Zhiye swallowed and glanced at Al, who had eaten the cake and was still safe, and was about to take a cookie to taste...
"What are you doing there!"
There was a stern scolding from behind, and branches and leaves turned back... The worst thing she expected happened.
The inspection team of the high elves found here! She looked at the "human girl" again, and she seemed to be in a state of panic, not at all like a warrior should behave.
"Ino, don't worry about the car, just run back!"
The magic web interface that appeared in front of her let Zhiye know the name of the person in front of her. Zhiye decided to negotiate with the Elf patrol team. Unfortunately, Al immediately hugged her in the next second.
"It's time to run away at this time." Al said vaguely with the cake in his mouth.
"Put me down!"
The persuasion of branches and leaves had no effect, she could only watch helplessly as Al carried her into the interior of the Forgotten Land.
