Chapter 137 Chapter 137 Far View
"Hide and hide." Gerros greeted quickly. But the top of the stone mountain is only a hundred meters square, and there are no trees. Where to hide?
"Why do you hide? The Knight below is not the monster of the wild forest." Dagon expressed his confusion.

"It's hard for us to explain why it takes a lot of effort to climb to this commanding height. That's the commander's thinking, right? But we are a caravan, and doing so can easily be regarded as a monster's spy." Gerros said: "Do you still have the strength to take everyone down?"

Dagon shook his head, indicating that he was not very sure and would have to rest for at least an hour.

"Then hide..."

Before Gerros could say where to hide, someone on the cliff shouted, "Who's up there?"

p>

"Don't hide, it's more troublesome." Geros sighed in a low voice, then loudly shouted: "Two humans, a halfling, and a dwarf. Safe way into the city."

There was no answer from the cliff, but a grappling hook was thrown up immediately. Not long after, a half-elf male with a pointed ear missing on one side and two humans without armor climbed up along the rope. They were very agile, and after they got up, they put their hands on the dagger handle around their waists.

"We have no malice or hostility," said Gerlos, seeing them with their green city wall-like collars fastened to their cloaks, "you are the guards of Heshan City? We are from Mawang Bay. , is about to enter the city. We have already paid the tax at the bridge, and the proof of tax payment and entering the city is on me."

The half-elf with one missing ear seems to have the final say among the three. That, he looked at the four people in front of him, and his eyes stayed on Dagon for the longest time. There is no way, a guy who is basically wrapped in armor and holds two-handed weapons on the top of the mountain is definitely far more deterrent than others. However, with one halfling and one child out of the four, it doesn't look like a combination of spies at all. After all, if you want to disguise as a family, these four are too out of tune.

“How did you get up here?” the half-elf asked.

"The dwarves are particularly familiar with the properties of rocks. They climb up and down in underground tunnels and mines all day. He brought us up." Geros said with a faint smile: "We are afraid of encountering The monster of the barbarian forest didn't dare to go around the road to the east, so he moved towards the general direction of Heshan City. Because we were afraid of getting lost, we wanted to climb up and have a look."

"It sounds pretty good. Reasonable." The half-elf said: "I am Kunrui, Kunrui of Heshan City. Wangshan is now a military area, you should leave immediately."

"My lord. We just climbed up. Let us Shall we rest here for an hour? Our dwarf friends need to restore mana, otherwise we can't go down."

"You can spell?" Half-elf Kunrui came interested: "What is your name, from Which clan?"

"I'm Dagon Neil, from Jiangu City."

"He's a student of the elite Academy, going to Myniris and passing through Heshan City. "

Hearing that he was a student of the elite Academy, the curious light in the half-elf Kunrui's eyes dimmed a little. "Ai, you can use spell at such a young age, and you have the confidence to use such a complex weapon, which is considered excellent among dwarves. It's a pity to go to the elite Academy, it will be half ruined."

" If it is stronger and firmer than it, it will not be destroyed, but will be beaten into a weapon. It is not a hammer if it is not hammered."

"Well, the motto of the Neil family in Jiangu city." Half-elf nodded, Said to his two companions: "It is indeed a dwarf from Jiangu City, not a spy in the wild forest in disguise. Send a signal below and hang up the telescope by the way."

One of the guards went to carry out the order, The other remained firmly beside the half-elf. Dagon planted his head-axe on the ground, took his hand away from the long handle in a friendly gesture, and asked curiously, "Few people of other races can tell my age. How did you do that?" ?"

"I've met a lot of Jiangu clansman, and I've lived with them for twenty years. With this time, your looks and age expressions are no longer mysterious. Especially knowing The language of the beard ring, I know that you are just an adult, and you are still wearing the fine silver ring commemorating the first five years. Of course you are very young."

"Twenty years?"

"I'm not here to tell you stories, I still have the task of reconnaissance and lookout." The half-elf Kunrui said: "If you want to rest, sit down and rest. If you want to go down the mountain or move on the top of the mountain, let us know first, get Act after permission. Although you are not spies in the wild forest, this is still a military operation area, not a tavern to brag and tell stories.”

“It’s fair.” Dagon pointed at him, “Over there, Facing north, the ground is only rock, and there is no obstacle, including jumping off to kill yourself. We'll just sit there, under your noses, okay?"

"Okay." The half-elf nodded.

The four walked over and sat back to back. Dagon faces the cliff, Gerros and Toby stare at the half-elves, and Lati is under the protection of the three of them. Time is not enough, Dagon immediately began to run the mana cycle, collecting Earth Element energy from the rocky mountain to replenish himself.

The mountain range is the outstanding performance of Earth Element's energy, the higher the bigger the better. Dagon uses the fastest speed to drive the cycle, Fire Element to accelerate Earth Element, without wasting a shred of effort on cover. The half-elf looked here several times. He should have felt the changes in the surrounding elements and knew that Dagon was indeed recovering his mana. He snorted and whispered, "Academy guys, they're showing off their spell abilities again."

Just as Dagon regained his mana and Gerros and the others shared food and water, the half-elves were on the side. A box was hung up with a rope. When opened, there is a tripod and a long tube telescope wrapped in straw and a slightly smaller box. The guards cautiously assembled them, as if stroking the lover's face with light movements. Then, the half-elf adjusted the stand, pointed the telescope to the east, and observed it patiently.

Because of the brass and platinum trim on the outer tube of the telescope, Toby whispered to Gerlos about its price. They thought that the telescope was around a thousand gold coins, mainly because Geros glanced at it just now and found that the larger lens at the front of it was not glass, but some kind of pan-blue crystal.

"You're ignoring the elemental fluctuations on it. I also vaguely feel the energy of the rune, so it's a rune, and it's pretty rare." Dagon closed his eyes, but his "earth hearing" "Enough to help him monitor the situation around him. "Kunrui, am I right?"

"This is indeed a rune device, which can help me strengthen my investigation. If it is sent to the market, its price will be around 3,000 gold coins. Dwarf gold coin." The half-elf's eyes never left the telescope, he said: "Because the telescope is very valuable, we will be very nervous, especially for sudden movements."

"We don't It will move at will." Gerlos promised first, then asked Dagon: "Why do you say it's rare?"

"Only the Jiangu people make runes, and in the underground environment, consider To the structure of caves and tunnels, telescopes are meaningless. So it is quite rare for the Jiangu people to make rune telescopes, do you understand?"

"This is not made by the Jiangu people, but by elves, So it's not uncommon," Kunrui said.

"Elf Race doesn't make runes!" Dagon opened his eyes and raised his volume.

"They will. They used rune in Elvish." Kun Rui shook his head and said, "Don't ask me how the elves learned it, I don't know, but this rune telescope is indeed Made by Elf Race, it can be activated with half of my elf bloodline. Okay, I don't want to discuss this with you, the monster of the wild forest is approaching."

Everyone immediately looked down the mountain, looking for the monster's Traces, but saw nothing. At this time Kunrui said to his guard: "Record: about twelve li from the east, a group of lizardmen entered Sijing Village, the number was about thirty. They had no armor or standard clothes, and the weapons in their hands were simple wood. Spears and stone axes, they should be a group of wandering soldiers. Huh? Why are there still residents in Sijing Village who haven't evacuated? What are they thinking?"

"Do you want to spread the news of the residents as well?" the guard asked.

"No. Tell the commander below to continue resting as planned."

The guard quickly wrote on a small notebook with charcoal, then tore the page Come down, stuff it into a small cloth bag, tie it with a thin rope and send it down. Dagon took a deep breath, mobilized the "yong" rune to automatically cycle, and then said: "It's only twelve miles away, and the terrain is very flat. There are cavalry below you, so you can pass quickly. You have a good chance to rescue the people there. The villagers, or at least the lizardmen robbers. Why not?"

"Those villagers want to defend their homeland, and I'll do it for them." The half-elf replied: "The alarm has been raised, and they choose not to It's their own business to go."

"Why didn't they go?"

"Maybe they thought they could escape by hiding in the cellar, or maybe they were spies from the savage monster... ..."

"Maybe they can't walk, maybe they can't pay the money to pass the level..." Dagon shook his head and said: "The key is not how many possibilities there are, but why they don't know these problems. The answer? In the Jiangu clan, everyone will support each other when they are in danger, reduce losses as much as possible, and destroy the enemy as much as possible. It doesn't work." The half-elf snorted, said: "Record, the lizardmen entered the village and started rummaging. They grabbed food and stuffed it in their mouths, obviously very hungry. It seems that the impact of the savage forest may be strong this time, We must continue to strengthen our defenses."

"Yes!" The guard passed the order down.

Dagon wanted to go on, but Geros touched him quietly, glanced at Lati, and shook his head. Dagon frowned, sighed in a low voice, and continued to take the time to restore his mana.
