The legendary path of the abandoned half-elf

Continuing to go deeper, Aya's expression changed slightly as she turned on and off her senses at the right time. She took Vita's hand and lurked to stop moving. Not long after, a group of red hats passed by them and did not notice the two people who were completely hidden.

Sure enough, the appearance of the red hat is related to this place, and I don't know if those who are following her will encounter her.

Aya watched them move away with her senses, and then stood up with Vita until they were at a safe distance, and hurriedly headed deeper.

Approaching the center of the forest, the traces of decay gradually became more serious, with only some dead trees and stubborn weeds left around. Aya's perception was slightly disturbed, but it was not that it couldn't be used.

Plants that are common in negative energy planes appeared in front of them, such as soul-covering vines. The front was no longer an environment where ordinary plants could grow. Negative energy was filling up, and the smell of death gradually increased.

Aya stepped on a relatively hard bone on the sole of her foot. When she kicked it out, she discovered that it was actually a human skeleton.

Dropping a seed and letting it spread around, the elf girl couldn't help but squint her eyes when she saw many things underground -

This is a huge group of tombs. There are not only human bones, but also elven bones. Judging from the age, it should be the tombs of the two camps here a long time ago.

Originally, these bones should have been buried underground, but under the influence of negative energy, these skeletons seemed to be dug up due to the extra will born from the remaining soul breath.

In addition, there are traces of human movement. Judging from the bones and soil, they are sickle cuts. From this, it can be seen that the red hats seem to have been carrying the corpse and handing the corpse to something.

Analyzing the scene here, Aya looked up at the area occupied by negative energy plants in front of her, stretched out her hand to signal Vita to take off high in the sky, and waited for her to fly into the sky and sneak over alone without attracting the attention of those weird plants.

Plant perception has no connection with these potentially uncontrollable negative energy plants, and the elf girl unilaterally uses them as perception amplifiers for exploration.

As the number of bone fragments increased, Aya passed through the protection built by the soul-covering vines and came to a place with no plants. This was a dark place.

The plains are lifeless and wrapped in negative energy.

She also finally discovered the culprit that caused the incident. There was only one plant on the plain.

An unsettling [-]-meter giant tree stood there. It was completely black, with almost no leaves, and exuded an aura of gloom, despair and nightmare——

This is an ancient owl tree, the one she summoned and used in Ponce City.

The owl tree in front of her is more terrifying than the big tree she catalyzed in Ponce City. The bottom is covered with the skeletons it likes. It can grow simply by relying on negative energy, whether it is the soul-covering vine or the dark forest outside. The magic circle seems to be designed to block it.

Chapter 717 The Mediator

The giant tree in front of him was obviously beyond the reach of ordinary owl trees. The tree trunk that almost covered nearly half of the withered center had many humanoid things hanging on it. It was unclear whether they were corpses or its puppets.

Through plant perception, Aya could sense that the owl tree in front of her did not have self-awareness like the tree man. Even so, it was terrifying enough and even more malicious.

It probably only has a few thoughts in its consciousness - growth, killing, survival, and domination.

At this time, some red hats climbed over the thorns and returned to the withered plain. They dragged some fainted animals towards the owl tree with a lifeless look. Aya also found several people who were following her inside. Druid.

None of them died, just temporarily knocked unconscious.

The red hat, who didn't know whether it was dead or alive, dragged the prey to the feet of the owl tree. The roots of the owl tree opened up the caked soil on the ground and tied up the living animals, burying them together with them into the ground.

At the same time, its roots grew tighter and tighter on these living creatures, quickly piercing their skin and gradually penetrating into their flesh and bones, absorbing the vitality that allowed it to grow bigger.

Under the guidance of those vitalities, the scattered negative energy quickly gathered towards it, forming a ball of will-o'-the-wisps and seeping into the cracked bark. Aya keenly felt that the place where the soul-covering vine lived had shrunk again.

This terrifying ancient owl tree is growing on corpses and negative energy, and will one day destroy the seal. But I don’t know how many years have passed, and whether this owl tree was remade by the earth giant spirit...

When Aya became suspicious, the voice of the earth giant came to her ears again.

[Finally, someone discovered the true situation of the war between humans and elves. 】

[This ancient owl tree was not created by me, but has always stood on this land, and the seals around it were jointly set by the first two tribes. 】

[Unfortunately, as time goes by, they gradually forget what they should do, and even cause the original tribe to fall into destruction due to accidents. This place and the Owlwood itself have been turned into a trial place for the trialists. 】

[Trialist, do you want to take over the task of "mediator" and guide humans and elves to cause some damage to the owl tree again, or even reduce its living range and seal it again? 】

It looks like it’s time to select a node.

Aya understood. At this time, she could feel the will of the earth djinn surrounding her, but she did not realize that her status as a white elf should be lower than that of the earth djinn she met in Crystal City.

Let’s put these down for now, anyway——

Do you want to be a "mediator"?

The elf girl quickly opened her eyes and looked at the sky. Instead of thinking about the pros and cons of this, she should directly ask Vita, who can calculate more quickly, to give her a better choice.

"Vita," Aya said silently in her mind, "choose a route for me."

The constructed girl in the sky received this information, and the data stream flashed in her eyes. If off-site factors such as trialists are eliminated, Aya has a 100% possibility of letting the elves and humans unite to destroy this ancient owl. The wood was sealed again.

But if you join the trialists, that's not necessarily the case. The humans and elves will definitely create obstacles, not to mention the igniters.

Adding these factors together, Aya's winning rate is less than 40%, and becoming a [Mediator] is really not a good choice.

After receiving the news from Weta, the elf girl tapped the soul-covering vine beside her, and soon Weta sent her choice——

"Master, I believe you can complete this task. I suggest you choose a mediator."

"it is good."

Since Vita said so, Aya said to the earth giant in her heart without hesitation: "I choose to be a mediator."

The deep, dull voice of the djinn echoed in her mind.

[Very good, after so many years, someone finally chose the path of mediator. 】

[This road is very difficult, especially after Owlwood has grown up for so long. As a reward, I can give you the help I can. 】

Help as much as possible...

Aya was thinking, her eyes lit up after hearing Weita's suggestion, she put forward her request to the earth giant in her mind, and received its response after a moment: "Yes, you will gain this ability in this trial."

"That damn white-haired elf bitch!"

Outside the center of the withered dark forest, a group of guys stayed in a secret gathering in the distance of the Elf Manor.

The one who was secretly cursing at this time was the Druid Avenger who had survived the sonic boom. Everyone here was an igniter, and most of them were

It's the Druid Avenger.

The Avengers sect was rejected by others because it was too extreme. Every member of the sect was united, which led to the current results.

The Druid Avengers who participated in this trial all chose the identity of [Igniter] without exception, and now they are all waiting here to discuss how to kill Aya.

She has killed many Avengers, and her body is stained with a smell that only Avengers can smell. She was intercepted halfway not only because of Vita, but also because Aya killed the Avengers in front of her, and was stained with the smell that can make the Avengers Distinguished magical aura.

For this reason, Aya has become a public enemy of the Avengers, and now they are discussing how to deal with Aya.

Of course, the Avengers sect was not the only one who started the fire. Others did not agree with the Avengers' actions and believed that they should seize the time to destroy the relationship between the two camps.

"Miss Katie and all the great Avengers, for the sake of the forest, I think the Avengers must temporarily put aside the anger in their hearts and focus on destroying those two camps."

One of the guys wrapped himself in a black robe said. His words made the Avengers hesitate. After all, the purpose of the sect is "everything is for nature."

The leader of the seven-member Avengers team did not hesitate for too long. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's consider causing a war first."

The non-Avengers Igniters breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Igniters could just watch the relationship between the two parties collapse without doing anything, if they wanted to get a higher evaluation after winning, they must participate in it. Moving.

They are not the most powerful ones at the moment. The human trialists have the upper hand, followed by the elves, and finally the igniters. As for the so-called mediators, no one is aware of them. Who would be so stupid to do something that is almost impossible to succeed? things.

Oh, maybe there is, either a person who is kind enough or a person who has confidence in himself.

Chapter 718 Identifying Friends and Enemies

(ps: make up for yesterday’s post)

The fire starters present discussed how to affect both camps. The meeting started very quickly. Everyone was not a politician. The results of the discussion were immediately reached. They first went to the human side and killed some trialists.

In any case, killing people, burning food, and breaking down houses will definitely cause a big shock.

After agreeing on a time for action, the disguised igniters separated again. An Avenger next to Katie looked unlucky: "They won't help, what should we do?"

"Don't worry, such a strong guy will definitely fight against all of us in the end. Let's just endure it for now."

Katie felt a little aggrieved, but that was the general trend.

This group of Avengers shuttled through the forest, talking to each other. One person with a high sense of danger suddenly felt a cold light on his back and shouted: "There are enemies!"

The purple-black stream of light penetrated the gap between the leaves and pierced Katie's heart. She was warned in advance and used the Lost Step to avoid the arrow. Someone's eyes turned into eagle eyes to look at the attack location.

The white-haired elf looked at him from a distance, sheathed her crossbow and waved at them provocatively, as if asking them if they dared to confront her.

"Katie! It's the white-haired elf you were talking about!"

"Chasing..." Thinking of Aya's terrifying sonic spell, Katie said loudly, "Are there any spells that include silence?"

Level 2 [Silence], expands a spherical area with a center radius of 20 meters. No sound will be produced during the duration, and external sounds cannot enter the area.

Any creature completely within the area becomes deafened and cannot cast spells that require a verbal component.

"I have."

An Avenger whispered a signal, and Katie's eyes immediately turned sharp: "Rush over and kill her!"

[Well, it seems that the ability given by the earth giant is not a big problem. 】

Aya, who shot an arrow, stood on the tree and stared at the druid running in the distance, Lorenno said in his mind.

The ability they obtained from the earth djinn allows them to distinguish the composition of other trialists through vision and see which path they have chosen.

Among the five Avengers Aya has seen so far, they all have the red light belonging to the igniter, which fits the stereotype, and her body is burning with the golden flame that symbolizes the mediator.

With this ability, she can get rid of all the guys who may destroy her goals. The elf girl feels that this sentence is right——

If you think a problem is too troublesome, you can first deal with some of the variables in the problem and turn them all into something that has been determined.

Facing the five Avengers who were about to approach, Aya stretched out her hand to release the spell, and Lorenno asked questions.

[Speaking of this trial, there are too many druids from the Avengers Sect. We encountered thirteen or four. 】

"Perhaps it was placed like this on purpose, or maybe the sect has props that allow them to gather quickly."

The elf girl didn't care about this. When she responded to Lorenno, the spell gesture was about to be completed. The moment before it was completed, she was about to recite the spell. A druid in the distance took the lead and stretched out his arm and shouted:

"Quiet!"

With Aiya at the center, all the sounds disappeared. When she noticed this, she realized that it was the effect of the silence spell and immediately changed her gestures.

Super Magic [Spell Silent Release]

】——

Level 2 [Cloud and Mist].

An inexplicable mist appeared in the already very dark forest, completely wrapping Aya in it. The druids who had applied buffs to themselves turned into animals and rushed into the mist, stabbing with their sharp claws at the original location of Aya. !

...Unfortunately, they were still a step too slow. Lorenno disappeared from their sight. The Avengers could only stare at the elf girl who might appear in the mist at any time with wide eyes.

Super magic [silent spell]——

Level 5 [Death Cloud Technique].

Hidden in the clouds, Aya emerged from a big tree by blending into the forest. Her hands guided the magic to gather in the air, and the next second she waved her hands towards the beasts.

Sensing a breeze blowing across his back, the Tiger Druid suddenly turned around and rushed towards the treetop where Aya was. However, she had already left the place and appeared on the other side after releasing the spell before.

Has the color of the fog in front of you changed?

In the silent fog, everyone lost their hearing and most of their vision, and their sense of smell became more sensitive. The druids who became beasts smelled an extremely pungent smell, and the color of the fog seemed to blend more with the darkness.

The dark green poisonous mist spread quietly. They felt itching and burning in their bodies. They immediately realized that this was the effect of the toxin and jumped away in all directions.

But the cloud and mist technique diluted the concentration of the death cloud technique but expanded its range. They were still in the poison.

Pulling out the lark at will, it no longer trembled under the silence technique, and the sound could not resonate with it. It only trembled slightly when drawing the sword. Aya carried it and rushed directly to a lone animal.

The Avenger Druid with keen senses noticed Aya's looming murderous intention. The giant gray wolf immediately turned its head almost 180 degrees to face the elf girl who came through the fog, stamping on the ground with all its limbs to avoid the attack.

With his hind limbs on the big tree, he used the trunk to jump towards Aya's landing point. The giant wolf waved the sharp claws of his forelimbs to cut through the air. Miraveco made no sound when the claws collided with each other, but the two at close range could You can clearly see the notches popping out of the sharp claws.

This fancy weapon is so sharp? !

The giant wolf learned from Katie that the long sword of the elf in front of him could resonate with sound spells. He thought it was just a fragile staff made in the style of a long sword. It was more or less strong and no better than his enhanced one. Physically strong.

The result was that he was tricked by himself.

Pushing away the giant wolf, Aya reached out and patted the dust on her clothes. At the same time, she activated the effects of Swift Thunder [Thunder and Lightning] and [Moving Like Thunder]. Her hair swelled due to the flashing thunder and lightning, and because of her extremely fast speed. Being pulled behind!

【花step】——

The Silence spell is not entirely a shortcoming for Aya. Most of her spells require verbal components, and she is basically unable to cast spells within the scope of the Silence spell. However, the super magic [Silent Spell] can help her solve this problem.

The advantage is that after using the cloud and mist, everyone's vision and hearing have been blocked. It depends on whose perception is stronger, and Aya is unlikely to lose when it comes to perception.
