Chapter 48 Chapter 42: The Origin of Hatred

The night in the forest is filled with the moist aroma of vegetation, and the stars are dim in the breath of water.Bai Ya rested her chin and sat by the small lake in the forest, a little distracted.In such a quiet and elegant night, the insects are not singing, and war and fear are far away. "Whenever I can become a strong swordsman... then the knights will never treat me like a child." Thinking that the knights always take special care of her like a child, which caused the ridicule of his companions, the silver moon samurai Bai Ya, the youngest among them, began to look forward to the day when her name would always be associated with the knight, and she could always stand proudly at the first position on the right of the knight's horse.But now, every time she tried to grab this position, she would be pushed aside by Reed or Amos.

She once secretly asked Reed, "Have you ever seen a knight take off his visor?" Can't help but ask, "Then is he handsome?" Reed scratched his head, and it took him a long time to say: "At that time, in the tavern, with a face full of scars, he asked people eagerly to save a girl, but everyone laughed at him, Thought he was talking in his sleep... Of course, I have to admit... If his face hadn't been so bruised then, he would have been a handsome guy, just a little less handsome than me." So poor Bai Ya spent many nights between worries and fantasies. It turns out that the knight also has a past. He was not always cold, nor did he wear this mask from birth, so he will definitely take it off one day in the future. Excuse me, if it's for her... But what makes her sad is that Reed and the others seem to know the knight's past. She is jealous of people's looks when they recalled the knight for the first time. They saw his smile and knew his young and cheerful years.She also wants to have that kind of memory, a face, a smile.

"He's changed..." Reed said, "since he put on this shiny paladin armor again. Is it really because of the heavy responsibility? I haven't heard from him since he shut himself in the visor. He laughed...he became cruel, merciless towards enemies, and no longer needed friends. However, I always feel that this is not just because of status, but it seems that the armor behind...maybe someone else at all , When I think of this, I get scared..." Baiya didn't have such troubles as Reed. She knew that if the knight cared about anyone, it was her. During the battle, he would always ask first: "You look after Baiya." Or let Baiya follow him. Don't run around.That was the happiest time for Baiya, she followed the lion like a little rabbit, she was not afraid even in the chaos.She even always had a dream that one day on the beautiful grass outside the city, the armor on the knight's body melted like ice in the sun, and a man with broad shoulders smiled at her.

These days, Reid gave her a task: take a crystal vial, go to an old elf doctor priest deep in the jungle, and ask him to prepare "Goddess Tears". When she finally found the old doctor in the labyrinthine forest, he stared at the vial blankly for a long time before telling her to wait outside, which lasted for a whole day. Bai Ya stood up and paced around the lake in boredom, kicking everything that could be kicked into the lake, and once kicked a sleepy tin crocodile away.When the old doctor sacrifice finally came out of the tree house, Bai Ya had dragged out all the crocodile basilisks in the lake and hung them on the tree.

"It's finally succeeded. I don't know where you got the most important raw material, but this potion can't be used now. Please tell your master that there is only one drop of the tear of the goddess, and it must be used with an ancient potion. It's called the 'Curse of the Goddess Scanner', but I don't understand the spell, so please look elsewhere." Bai Ya held the crystal vial again, and couldn't see any difference between it and the past, but as long as it was important to the knight, she would protect it with her life.She carefully hid the vial in her bosom, and she could feel the deep coolness from the vial on her skin.

Bai Ya eagerly rode her horse back on the road, but soon after, she suddenly found that she seemed to have lost her way. At some point in the forest, a layer of brown-golden fog rose, and all the tree shadows behind the fog became unreal and unbelievable. Even though he is the lowest level among the Silver Moon Guanghua warriors, Bai Ya can also sense the strangeness of the mist. "Who's casting a spell? Come out!" she yelled, drawing her sword.But only her voice echoed in the forest. But the echo turned into a low singing of a female voice, and following the singing, the mist began to spin rapidly.

Bai Ya thought that she might have met a banshee in the forest. She closed her eyes to avoid the influence of the phantom fog, but the singing sound penetrated into her ears more distinctly, making her gradually lose her sense of touch. She held the sword in her hand for a while. In the hand, it seemed to disappear after a while. Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of wind, like a snake bouncing towards her. Bai Ya swung her sword around to meet the sound, "snap", something was wrapped around her sword, and then her wrist was wrapped around something cold. She only felt that there was a force pulling her to one side. She shook the sword violently and cut off the rope wrapped around the sword, but she also fell off the horse. Immediately there were countless wounds on the ground that could not be distinguished whether they were snakes or vines. The green creature jumped out and entangled her body, and Bai Ya screamed.

Those magic vines tied Bai Ya to the ground tightly, like a white stone full of roots.The fog gradually dispersed, and an elf woman came out of the fog. "General Liz?" Bai Ya called out her name. "A female swordsman of Silver Moon Glory," General Liz said without a smile on her face, "Why did your knight ask you to suppress the tears of the goddess? Did he not hesitate to offend the elves just for the tears of Princess Yinping?" "What does this have to do with you!" Bai Ya said angrily, "I don't know what this medicine has to do with your silver bottle princess!"

"Because he brought humiliation to our elves and me!" General Liz said loudly, "I will not let you use the tears of Princess Silver Vase to make medicine, hand it over." "How do you know this?" "Do you think you can hide it from us by finding an old medical priest from another tribe hundreds of miles away? Someone wants to suppress such a big event as the tears of the goddess, and the elf letter bird has already spread all over the window of the medical priest!" Liz stepped forward, "Hand it over!" "No! I sent it back with a messenger bird a long time ago."

General Liz sneered: "You think you can fool me?" She chanted the spell, and the magic vines were pulled away to both sides, and Bai Ya's hands were pulled away.General Liz stepped forward and found the vial from Bai Ya. "This magical medicine can only belong to the elves forever!" The female doctor priest held the crystal bottle tightly and kicked Bai Ya's long sword away.Chanting the spell again, suddenly a vine hangs down from the tree, binding Bai Ya's feet and hanging her upside down. "The shame of you hanging me on a tree! Let you taste it today. I hope that when your knight finds you, you haven't been sucked dry by a blood-sucking butterfly or bitten into a pig's head by a giant mosquito!" Will Liz Turn around and leave.

"Idiot!" Bai Ya cursed secretly, she looked at the long sword on the ground, waved her hand, the sword suddenly jumped up by itself, and flew back into her hand.It was a basic sword retraction skill that swordsmen above level 20 would use. General Liz, who had never been out of the Forest of Elves since she was a child, had no experience in dealing with swordsmen, so she left the long sword on the ground.Bai Ya retracted her waist sword again and swiped upwards, cutting off the magic vine, turning over and falling to the ground. General Liz turned her head when she heard the voice, and Bai Ya had already rushed to her side in a flash of silver light, twisted her wrist with one hand, and put the sword around her neck with the other. Jiang Liz screamed in pain when Bai Ya twisted her wrist, unable to recite another spell.Bai Ya tripped her to the ground with a sweep of her feet, and tied her up by pulling the vines.While holding the sword against the throat of the female doctor priest, he snatched the crystal bottle back from her hand. "You're finished..." Bai Ya said proudly, shaking the vial, "I hope you haven't been swallowed by monsters or carried away by giant ants before your people find you... And, this is your second This is the second attack on the Silver Moon Guanghua warriors, I will make the knights trample your tribe down when I go back!" "This is entirely my own doing! It has nothing to do with my tribe!" General Liz struggled on the ground and screamed, but Bai Ya's sword tip was shaking in front of her eyes, making her afraid to recite the spell. Bai Ya thought for a while, and decided to bring the female doctor sacrifice to the knight, and she put Liz on the horse and ran forward. However, she forgot to ask General Liz how she came here in such a short time. The big green-winged bird in the sky twirled and flew towards the elf tribe. In the tent, the fire was burning fiercely.Holding the bottle of crystal tears of the goddess, the knight was in a daze. "Scanner's curse? This seems to be a spell recorded in an ancient scroll." He stood up suddenly, "Maybe I need to go to the elf tribe to find Ron." "I just fought with the female doctor priest of the elves, and they seem to hate us for some inexplicable reasons." Bai Ya said. "Understandable. They think it's an insult for me to use the tears of Princess Mimiuria to make medicine, but now I don't care so much, I have to find Ron." "No, you don't have to, it's too risky. Me and Reed can sneak in and get Ron out." In the elf tribe at this time, the tribe embraced the weeping general Liz and shouted angrily to the people in the wooden house. "What happened?" Ron rushed up and asked General Liz. "It's because I received a letter from the old doctor at Youai Lake, saying that the human warrior brought the tears of Princess Yinping to ask to make 'goddess tears'. I rushed to snatch it... But they... too It's so pissing!" Liz cried as she grabbed Ron's arm. "Take up your arms, for the reputation of our beautiful Mimi Yuria, for the dignity of the elves, we cannot allow the human race to use the tears brought by humiliating our holy princess to make medicine!" The elves shouted angrily. "They've made that potion..." thought Ron, "so, they'll come after me again." Bai Ya and Reed sneaked into the elf's tribe, looking for an opportunity to send a message to Ron.The elf tribe seemed to be taking a nap, and it was extremely quiet. "Where did they go?" Bai Ya asked softly. "I felt something was wrong," Reed said. "how?" "It's like..." Reed suddenly yelled and flew towards the sky, a magic vine entangled his feet and hung him upside down in the air.Another magic vine jumped up like a snake, wrapped Bai Ya and pulled her down. While flying into the air, Reed saw the launch of the arrow crossbow mechanism among the trees. He bent his body, swung his sword and cut off the vines and fell down. The arrows passed by his ears.But where he landed, an inconspicuous small shrub suddenly opened its top leaf buds, swallowing him in like a big mouth. At this time, outside the forest, Xitan, Aristine, and Amos rushed in.Xi Tan cut off the vines binding Bai Ya's feet, dragged her and ran away.The cumbersome Amos was quickly caught by the vines that shot down from the ground. With his weight, he shouted like a tug-of-war and dragged the vines, uprooting them from the ground. A terrible thing happened, as the magic vine was dug out from the ground, a gigantic tree demon emerged as if awakened from the mud.It wields hundreds of vines ranging from hideous man-eating buds to thorny cords, and makes a hideous cry like steam bursting through cracks. Reed was in one of the many man-eating buds flying through the air, dazed by the shaking.After finally cutting off the thick leaf buds, I squeezed them out and fell to the ground, my body was covered with mucus.Xi Tan threw out a broken vine, entangled his arm and pulled him away.But the other vines grabbed Reed's feet, and poor Reed was pulled up in the air, screaming angrily. Suddenly, several arrows flew in and broke the vine on Reed's leg. When it broke there, Reed hit Sitan like a popped shell, and they fell to the ground together.People saw a blond elf archer jumping towards the tree demon, facing the vines flying all over the sky, he drew his bow calmly, every arrow flew out, pierced a vine end, and took it to the tree behind .He jumped on his feet, and shot dozens of arrows like this, the tree demon turned into a vine net nailed in the forest, roaring but unable to move. "A good arrow technique, every arrow can pass through the tip of the vine, and it must be nailed to the tree behind. This vision and calculation are amazing!" Xi Tan said with his mouth wide open. "Amos, hurry up and chop it down!" Reed cursed angrily. Amos swung his huge sword and was about to rush forward, but the elf archer flew towards Amos' belly with an arrow, and shot off his belt.As soon as Amos lowered his head, he threw away his sword and pulled up his trousers. "What's the matter with you?" Reed yelled at the elf archer. The archer walked towards them, his face was very young, but there was a strange and aggressive light in his eyes, perhaps because of years of training his eyesight, when he glanced at you, you seemed to have been shot through. "We don't allow the killing of trees, even man-eating dryads. I stop it just because I don't want you to be eaten before I do it." He raised his bow and arrow, "And you, outsiders, are me The real enemy to deal with." "Ha, he wants to challenge us!" Reid sneered, "Just with a bow." The archer switched to another type of arrow, without the iron arrow head, and the front end of the arrow shaft was simply sharpened, but it looked like it had been soaked in a potion, and it turned blue. "I don't want to shoot you dead, this kind of arrow will only paralyze you." "Hey, let's see how fast you can!" Reed suddenly jumped up with a look of disdain, "Let's charge together!" He fell down first with a numb thigh, and saw Xitan rushing past him, but was shot in the chest by an arrow.Bai Ya threw a dagger, and when the elf archer rolled to avoid him, she had already jumped in front of him, but the elf archer threw out a thin wire hook, nailed it to a tall tree on one side, and pulled herself up to the tall tree at once. In the treetops, Bai Ya just raised her head, and the arrow had already hit her shoulder. Aristine raised his hand and recited a spell, but the arrow hit his raised arm before he could finish. "It's only three syllables away..." He said unwillingly when he fell down. When he fell down, he looked up at Amos behind him. He was still holding a big stone and standing behind him in a daze. The knight rode his horse into the elf tribe, and the forest was full of arrows shining with cold light. "Knight Kant, you are finally here." The elf archer stepped out from the plank between the branches and leaves of the big tree. The magic bow of emerald, "I have heard for a long time that you have a heart made of cold iron. You are not welcome in the forest of elves." "Are you that legendary archer Hinchgreen?" The knight looked up at him. "Where are my men?" "They have been thrown into the crypt of the magic food flower, and will soon become the pus and blood in the giant flower's mouth!" The knight clenched his fists. "We didn't intend to be enemies of the elves. I didn't bring an army either. It was not my intention to offend Princess Mimi Yuria." "But the blood of the elves killed by you has flowed all over the forest!" Hinchgreen raised his bow and set an arrow, "I swear this arrow will pierce your throat." "Someone was killed? But I didn't do that!" Hinchgreen roared: "The survivors saw with their own eyes that human soldiers ransacked their villages." "I think we are all caught in a conspiracy." Kant's voice sank. The only answer to him was the sound of a taut bowstring. At the moment when the arrows of the elves were fired, the blue moonlight on which Kant was riding had already shot forward.It was a magical horse, which disappeared before the eyes of the elves in a blink of an eye. The branches and leaves in front of it burst open one after another, as if being blown away by the strong wind it blew up.At that moment, countless arrows flew out from the branches and leaves on both sides, but they all fell behind the horse. Hinchgreen was startled by the swiftness of the horse, but he turned around hastily. The archer could see through the branches and leaves, and he shot the arrow in his hand towards the end of the dust and smoke of the branches and leaves in the dense forest. Although the knight ran out of the range of a normal arrow, this arrow was farther than any elf could shoot. It passed through many gaps and chased straight towards the knight's back. Suddenly, a hand seemed to be stretched out from behind the knight, and he took the arrow away with a whistling sound. "Hey, I'm biting! Almost knocked off my front teeth." Hydra Kavna said, it turned back into the snake pattern on its helmet, and landed on the ground with a bang. "Okay! I'm saved..." Moghul, the head on Kant's back, cheered in cold sweat, "Boss, I've said it many times, next time you run away, can you not carry me behind you! " Kant had no intention of talking to them, he closed his eyes, the perception of the undead might not be able to hear Bai Ya's call for help, but it could make him feel the poisonous smell of the magic food flower, it was because of this sense of dark power, Only then can he always find the opponent's location in the huge forest. The knight turned his horse and rushed towards the side of the forest. Before running half a mile, the blue moonlight was caught by a long vine, and suddenly the soil in front of him collapsed and turned into a trap. The knight fell, and the hundreds of bows and arrows tied to the tree were triggered. The strings rang all over the sky, and the arrows shot down in disorder. Kant raised his horse's shield, and the arrow hit the shiny silver steel shield with a bang.Blue Moonlight jumped out of the pit, and was hit by an arrow in its thigh, and the sharp blade in the trap also cut the horse's hoof. It was much harder to run, but it still left behind the elves' pursuers. Kant finally rushed to the location of the magic flower. The woods here did not look abnormal, but the knight could feel that the large area of ​​magic flowers was surging underground. He jumped off his horse and wanted to find the entrance. Suddenly, another spear was thrown from the woods. Kant held up his shield to resist, but was hit in the back of his heart by a spear, but fortunately it did not penetrate his armor. The elves guarding here jumped out.Kant swung his sword vigorously and knocked down several elves surrounding him to the ground. When he turned around, a group of elves behind him also fell down, as if due to snakebite. "It was my dark curse that helped you," Mughal said flatteringly. The knight rushed into the bush where the elves jumped out, trying to find the entrance of the crypt, but suddenly his feet slipped, and this time he didn't have to look for it, and fell headfirst into the deep crypt. A strong dark breath surged in the crypt, and the huge magic food flower sprayed a stench towards Kant all around.But they were not ready to attack the undead, and they retreated around as soon as Kant waved his hand. He didn't find Bai Ya and Reed's figure, could it be that they have been swallowed by the magic flower?Kant anxiously searched all the way. There was a shout from a distance between the many magic flowers. Kant ran over, pushed aside the giant flowers dripping with saliva, and saw an open space where Reed and Baiya were lying with their hands and feet bound. .Seeing the knight, the Silver Moon Warriors all cheered. "I know we'll be saved!" Reed yelled. "Knight, have you crushed those elves yet?" "It seems that those flowers don't like you!" Kant said while cutting their ropes, "They are all far away from you." "Thanks to the smell of Amosi's body odor, they dare not approach..." "Fart! That's the smell of Aristine's overturned potion bottles!" Amos yelled, "We moved here with great difficulty, Sitan was almost swallowed, I pulled him out with my teeth of!" "Also, you can't bite the ears where you bite. Is it as long as a rabbit now?" Xi Tan cried. "Knight, have you seen that terrible archer?" Amos said, "We were all shot by him, and now it is difficult to walk." "Yeah, my leg hurts..." Bai Ya's tears fell down. "Just now I was pretending to be strong, but I cried when I saw the knight coming, hum..." Reed laughed, "Do you want the knight to carry you?" "Knight, you seem to be able to drive creatures of the dark type, can you make these magic flowers crawl out and bite those elves?" Xitan asked. "The power of the dark department can be used to drive them, but it is the work of masters of the natural department to make them grow." Knight said. At this time, a whistle sounded outside the cave, and it seemed that there was another rustling sound added to the whirling sound of the magic flower. "Is this a snake flute!" Reed exclaimed. "These elves are worried that we won't die fast enough." "Release the snakes? Aren't they afraid that the magic food flowers will eat these snakes?" Bai Ya asked. "Powder that can make the magic food flower turn off the appetite is not a rare thing in the elves." The mage Aristine said, "It's a pity that my magic power was sucked dry by them with a strange vine, and I couldn't recover it for a while, otherwise I will burn this hole!" "Stop coming," the warriors yelled, "We don't want to turn into swordsmen!" At the root of the giant flower, many slender snake shadows appeared. "Smear the powdered soil on the ground on your body, back into the cave, and follow me closely!" the knight said, helping Bai Ya up.The other Silver Moon Warriors stood up humming and chirping, helping each other to move into the cave. "Knight, can't you control these snakes?" Bai Ya asked. "I can't do anything about nature creatures." Kant nervously looked at the giant flowers that spewed out mucus. "Even if it's these magic food flowers, I'm not sure they can give me enough face." Under the temptation and tearing of the magic food flowers on both sides, a group of people retreated nervously to the depths of the cave, and the snake's hissing sound followed behind. After retreating a few hundred meters, a fork in the road appeared. Kant closed his eyes to observe the front, and led the crowd to the road that sloped underground. Sure enough, there were no magic food flowers in this passage, but after walking for a while, Kant saw the group of snakes at the entrance of the cave following them, only a few tens of meters away from them. "Who still has the incendiary bottle? Aristine?" Kant asked. "All my powder bottles were broken... Some of them were prepared after several months of preparation..." Aristine was suddenly touched by the sad thing, and he beat his chest and feet. "Ah!" Xi Tan suddenly slipped. "The road ahead is getting wet, so watch your step." Reed said, "It's too dark." Bai Ya immediately took the opportunity to cling to Kant, this little girl was probably the only one who didn't want a light. "Oops!" There was a plop after the shout. "Who fell into the water?" "It's me!" Amos' voice said. "Congratulations." The silver moon warriors expressed regret in unison. "There is no road ahead, it seems like a big pool..." Amos swam in the water. "Be careful! There may be..." Kant shouted in this pool. "Wow!" Before the knight finished speaking, Amos screamed and was dragged into the water by something. "What will it be?" asked Aristine, poking his head out. "Don't push me forward, why is it so crowded in this dark, haven't you seen someone fall into the water?" Reed cursed. "There's nothing dark about it, I suppose, like weeds or tin crocodiles," said Kant. "Oh..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's sit down and rest for a while and wait for Amos." Reed said with a strange smile. "To save time, help him!" Kant kicked Reed into the water, "Sitan, Reed, stop the snake behind!" After a long time, the big man surfaced with a strange cry. "Damn it, there's a group of huge tortoises below, biting like crazy, that's not enough, there's also a water ghost entangled me so hard, I finally knocked it out and floated up!" Reed also yelled and showed his head: "Wow, there are a group of strange water snakes down there, I'm not afraid of them, but a big crab keeps hitting me with its pincers..." "Who do you call the big crab?" Amos glared. "There are too many snakes, I can't cut them down! Be careful, someone slipped by, Reed, watch my back!" Saitan's voice came from behind. "Poisonous smoke, poisonous smoke is coming in from the hole." Reed shouted, "These elves have used all kinds of poisonous tricks!" Suddenly a figure came out from the darkness: "Let me show you the way." "Ron, why are you here?" "Dong Qi's powder that keeps the magic food flower from approaching is the one I sprinkled, and I have always wanted to secretly help you." "Thank you, Ron." "Why did you come to the Elf Tribe again?" "That's it, I need your help. I need a spell called the Scanner's Curse. I know that this spell is recorded on the ancient scroll of Ruo Xinghan, but the ancient scroll is written in the ancient elf language. Ron, you and your teacher Minkorn are the only people in the world who understand the ancient Elven language..." "Ancient scroll? But, such a precious lost ancient scroll, where is it?" "Over the years, I have used my status as a paladin to collect them on the earth." Kant took out a scroll, "This is part of it." "How much can this be?" "This is a magic volume, and the things it records are endless." Ron unfolded the scroll, and the magic scroll seemed to understand human nature, and the words on the scroll flowed or emerged with people's minds.He wanted to see the content behind, and with a thought, a large piece of characters flowed across the scroll like a torrent, seemingly endless. "My God!" he exclaimed, "how many are there?" "There are more than three hundred volumes and nearly ten million words, but many parts are missing. I hope the curse of Scanner can be included." "When you collect these ancient scrolls, you must want to find the most famous lost magic 'seal', which is the one that sealed the soul of the demon king into the armor of the paladin." "Yes... I need this spell to save myself, but I'm not sure if this spell will seal up my soul. But at least, they can save another person." "who is it?" "Yundi. I made the tears of the goddess to heal her." "Where is she? What's the matter with her?" "She was captured by the devil and fell into the hands of the necromancer. The dark magic eroded her body, making her scorched, living in nightmares day and night, unable to wake up. Only you can save her now. In the cabin of my camp. Take this scroll and this bottle of tears of the goddess, go find her, translate and read it carefully, her rebirth depends on you." "Okay. Okay." Ron gripped the scroll tightly, feeling extremely excited. The Ruoxing Han Ancient Scroll he had searched and collected all his life is finally in his hand, "I will go. Then... Kant, you what to do?" "I can't go with you, it will bring you danger, if I can go out, go to the castle and meet you again. Go into the water!" Kant turned back and shouted to his subordinates. The Mughal in the rucksack protested loudly: "I hate water! Cold water affects the skin and washes off the preservatives on me!" Kant threw the rucksack to Bai Ya, patted the snake emblem on his body: "Kavna." "Understood!" A big black shadow separated from Kant's body with a whoosh, and jumped into the water. Everyone jumped into the water, hugged Kavna's head, and swam to the opposite bank. Ron looked at the traces in the water: "Kant, you don't want to die here. Aren't you the future devil? I will personally defeat you with the spell of 'seal'. Without the devil, the great magic of saving the world will be What's the use?" He was lost in darkness.
