On the Seven Towers

Five people pressed General Nord up.

Di Ning said to Xiao Chen: "It's a good thing that we listened to you. We are ready to fight, otherwise we would be caught."

"I was just suspicious at first, but it seems that there is a conspiracy now. Right, General Nord?" Xiao Chen asked.

"I was careless. But you can't get anything from me. Human, I don't know what you are up to, but Di Ning and Maya will fall into the situation of being enemies with the entire elf race because of what you have done." General Nord said.

At this time, you still can't forget to sow discord? Xiao Chen said: "There is no need to be mysterious, General. It's the Saint Dahni, right? I can feel that she has ideas and ambitions, especially as a born elf, she must have some different positions from other elders."

The general's face was expressionless, probably not wanting to reveal any flaws to be seen by Xiao Chen, but in Xiao Chen's magical vision of detecting spirits, the white light group representing the general trembled violently when he mentioned Dahni.

"Even though you didn't say anything, I still know the answer. Magicians always have their own ways to know your secrets. It turns out to be her!" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"It's actually Saint Dahni! But she is a rain and dew priest with no fighting power." Maya and Di Ning were both surprised.

"People who are powerless can also be very powerful." Xiao Chen said with a nostalgic tone, but only he understood the true meaning of this sentence.

"The tree heart network still can't communicate with others, as if the entire network is closed." Di Ning said anxiously, "It seems that I can only go to the ground first."

"You can go to my teacher, Master Naan." Evelyn said, "He is the guardian of the underground passage. He lives at the entrance of the World Tree Root Tunnel. He often appears on the ground and knows more about what is happening outside."

"Great." Xiao Chen knew in his heart that according to Evelyn's description, this Master Naan might be a master in charge of collecting intelligence among the dark elves, and he might even be a leader in intelligence. Although the high elves and dark elves have the same origin and have a relatively harmonious relationship, they are two different races after all. The dark elves have their own archons and do not accept the jurisdiction of the elven elders, so it is normal to maintain intelligence work on the high elves.

Evelyn is willing to take them to see her teacher, and Xiao Chen is very grateful.

Di Ning also understood Xiao Chen's meaning and agreed: "Let's do it."

When the few people walked halfway up, they found that the passage began to tremble, the soil above the passage collapsed, and some passages themselves began to crack.

"Earthquake? How could it be so coincidental." Maya looked at the passage with concern.

"No, it's not an earthquake. Look at the roots of the world tree." Evelyn said.

Everyone looked carefully and found that many tree roots running through the passage were shaking. If you don't look carefully, you will think that the earth is driving the tree roots. If you look closely, you will find that the tree roots are not only shaking more than the earth, but also stretching and twisting.

"It's not an earthquake, it's something wrong with the World Tree. I feel it's uncomfortable! Let's go!" Xiao Chen said.

The Elf King's Capital under the World Tree has never had an earthquake for thousands of years, so such a vibration caused panic among the dark elves. They fled from their homes one after another, and there were dark elves running out on many forked roads around.

However, Xiao Chen saw that although all the elves had fear and worry on their faces, they basically maintained order. No one pushed or crowded casually, and most of them passed in turn. This is very different from the high elves who advocate freedom and individuality.

Then he thought that the resources underground are limited and the space is tight. Without discipline and patience, it is difficult for a tribe to survive in such an environment.

As the vibration intensified, large pieces of stone began to fall from the top. Xiao Chen raised his hand and shot an ice arrow, knocking a stone that fell on a dark elf boy away. Seeing the collapse trend getting worse, he said to the dark elves around him: "Everyone come closer to us, we are all high-level mages and warriors, and we will try our best to protect you!"

The dark elves around saw that there was a dark elf in this strange team, and they all turned their eyes to Evelyn. The dark elf ranger said loudly: "I am Evelyn, the disciple of Master Narn! You can trust this human."

The name of Master Narn should be well-known to these people. They all believed Evelyn's words and came over here.

Xiao Chen assigned: "Evelyn, you go to escort Nord, and the rest of us will separate front and back. Each person will take care of the circle around him, so that more dark elves can be protected."

Xiao Chen has established enough prestige in the team through the previous victory over the Yangyan priest and the discovery of the conspiracy. No one questioned why he did this, why he didn't hurry up to investigate the situation, but separated from each other and began to protect the people around him. Evelyn cast a grateful look at Xiao Chen, and Xiao Chen responded with a reassuring smile.

In this way, although there are always broken stones falling, the small stones can be directly bounced away by the magicians with their mental power, and the big stones will be broken or deflected by magic.

More and more dark elves joined along the way, making the team bigger and bigger. Some of them are also low-level warriors and magicians, so the situation has improved.

When the team was one-third of the way to the ground, a large landslide appeared in front of them, and a main branch road was blocked. A dozen dark elves dug hard on this side. But their strength was too limited. Xiao Chen estimated that they would not be able to successfully dig a passage in less than one or two days.

"Can we save them?" Maya asked.

"It is definitely not possible with just a few of us. Unless everyone comes to help. But this will slow down the speed of the escape of the large army and increase the risk." Xiao Chen hesitated.

At this time, an older dark elf stood up and said: "This human lord, you can stop to save us regardless of danger. What reason do we have not to help our compatriots?"

"Yes, we are willing to stay and help!"

"Yes, that's it!"

His words were responded by many dark elves.

Xiao Chen has never been a hypocritical person. He made a prompt decision: "In this case, the women take the children to go first, and the others are divided into several groups according to the original team. Line up and transport these stones to the side."

In fact, many dark elf women did not leave. Hundreds of people around Xiao Chen joined the rescue work, and the excavation speed was more than ten times faster.

Xiao Chen and Di Ning's acceleration and giant strength spells provided support for everyone, Maya used the elemental chain to break large stones, and although Roger was seriously injured, he also joined the rescue work and moved stones with the dark elves.

Evelyn was anxious watching from the side, and she wished she could go down and help.

General Nord said: "You go, my sense of honor does not allow me to run away at this time."

"No, I believe in my companions." Evelyn said firmly.
