Chapter 916 The real black forest
"Are you just blocking our retreat like this?" Leo looked at the blocked tree wall behind him through his spiritual vision ability, and couldn't help but smile.
Sylvia, who was standing beside her, was stunned when she heard this and looked at Leo in confusion, because in her eyes, there was still a road leading to the outside world behind her.
However, she soon realized what Leo meant, picked up a piece of soil from the ground and threw it hard towards the exit behind. The soil flew for a distance in the air and was about to fly out of the Black Forest, and suddenly disappeared. Then she heard the sound of impact from the woods not far away from the woods.
"Didn't you negotiate with the White Deer?" Sylvia looked at Leo with some confusion, then pointed to the out-of-town adventurers who had disappeared at the corner of the road ahead, and said, "Why do I feel that we are no different from those guys?"
Leo did not answer. He just raised his hand and showed the contract ring on his finger to Sylvia. He saw that the originally ordinary ring shone with a faint green light at this moment, and it felt like it was echoing with some power.
"Since there has been a sensing but it has not appeared, will something happen?" Sylvia guessed again.
Leo was silent for a moment and made a decision, "Let's find a place to wait for a while. If the white deer comes out, it's best. If it doesn't come out, we will go to Him according to the instructions of this ring."
Sylvia nodded after hearing this and agreed with Leo's proposal.
The two of them walked deeper into the Black Forest, but Leo did not look around through his spiritual vision ability at this time.
Because there are too many secrets and ancient existences in the Black Forest, far exceeding the Aisheli Forest that Leo once saw. If he looked around with spiritual vision, he might see something he shouldn't see, and he would eventually suffer.
The two continued to walk along the road to see if they could keep up with the people in front, but what was strange was that after they turned a corner, they could not see anyone in a simple road leading straight to the depths of the Black Forest.
Leo and Sylvia looked at each other, without saying anything, and continued to move forward. As they continued to deepen, the branches and leaves at the top of the forest became denser and denser, and the light blocked became more and more. Not long after, it was already pitch black in front of them.
For ordinary people, in this dark environment, you can naturally light up the light. But light up the light in the middle of the black forest will undoubtedly appear extremely eye-catching, just as if telling all the carnivorous creatures in the black forest to have a meal.
Originally, neither Leo nor Sylvia had to light the lights. With their eyesight, even in such a dark environment, they could still see everything around them clearly, but they did not do that. Instead, they lit the lantern hanging around their waists like ordinary adventurers, making their figures appear eye-catching in an environment like the Black Forest.
After lighting the light, the two continued to walk forward. After walking for about an hour, the artificial road seemed to have reached its end. A huge tree appeared in front of them. The only part of the tree roots was almost the same as a five-story building. The road just drilled through the bottom of the tree roots, and at the end was an arched small door.
Leo and Sylvia both stopped in front of the huge tree roots, looked at each other, and without saying anything, they walked in, and soon passed through the tree roots and the small arch at the end, and came to an open open space.
The open space is very flat, as if it was pressed by something. There is a layer of very soft velvet grass on the ground, and it feels like it is not stressed when stepped on it.
The surrounding trees still grow very tall, but the branches and leaves on the top of the tree grow weirdly, because all the branches and leaves on the top of the tree will not grow on this open space, which also allows you to see the sky after the open space is raised.
However, what is very strange is that the sky that Leo and Sylvia saw was at night, and even stars could be seen in the sky.
Although the two of them had not carefully calculated how long they had walked in the forest before, it would definitely not exceed two hours. According to normal times, the outside world is probably still in the morning, and it would never be the late night I see now.
"Are we entering the real Black Forest?" Sylvia looked up at the star dust in the sky and said in a deep voice.
"It should be." Leo responded, then turned to look at the huge tree root when they came in, and the tree root has now disappeared.
Before we walked to this open space from the arch under the roots, Leo and Sylvia both felt the unusualness of this huge tree root. This unusualness did not come from the appearance of the fundamental body of the huge tree, but from another feeling, the feeling was like the feeling they had entered the Aishelli Forest.
After seeing the night in the sky, both of them were sure that they were probably in a space similar to Aisholi Forest, which is the real Black Forest.
Compared to Sylvia, Leo was not surprised by what he is now, because this is not the first time he has entered the real Black Forest world.
When he first entered the Black Forest, he accidentally broke into the real Black Forest world and saw the Golden Deer, the Lord of the Black Forest. So everything now only deepened his memories.
"Do you feel it?" Sylvia took a few steps on the open space, then closed her eyes and felt it for a while, saying, "It seems that there is a force left in this open space, a very powerful force. Is there anything under this open space?"
"There should be nothing special. The power you feel comes from the vacant land itself." Compared to Sylvia, Leo is more sensitive to various abnormal energy changes in the outside world. When Sylvia felt something, he had already noticed the abnormality of the vacant land, and he also found the reason. He pointed to the edge of the vacant land and said, "Don't you think the appearance of this vacant land is very strange?"
"Exterior?" Sylvia looked around and soon formed an open space in her mind. Then she said in surprise: "Is this footprint? The footprint of a deer."
Leo nodded and said, "If you guessed correctly, this should be the footprints left by the Golden Deer, the Lord of the Black Forest."
"Golden Deer?" Sylvia showed a shocked expression when she heard this, and looked around her for a long time and didn't know what to say.
Although there are very few legends about the Golden Deer, the lord of the Black Forest, and most of the legends are purely fabricated, the reputation of the Golden Deer in the folk can be said to be very small. Almost no one who specializes in the history of the Black Forest folk customs does not know the name of the Golden Deer.
However, among the various classics of the Orthodox Church, there are many records of the Golden Deer. There is even a special document for the Golden Deer. Almost all information related to the Golden Deer has been included in this document room, from novels to legends.
Sylvia was very interested in the mysterious Black Forest, so she had read these materials and knew more about the situation of the Black Forest. She was more aware of how ancient god the golden deer was. She also wanted to see the oldest existence, so when Leo mentioned that she had seen the golden deer, she was full of envy and jealousy.
Now, although the golden deer in front of her was not a golden deer, she was still very happy to be able to stand in the footprints left by the golden deer and feel the power of the golden deer.
"It may not be a coincidence that we will be here." Leo suddenly said.
Sylvia was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean the white deer is guiding you here."
"Maybe!" Leo didn't say anything to death. He looked around and said, "There is still a breath of power of the golden deer. The mysterious existence of the Black Forest will not be close to here. Let's stay here today! Let's see if the white deer will appear?"
Sylvia naturally would not object. She and Leo soon found a suitable place, built a simple camping tent, then packed up some things, found some dead branches, and lit a bonfire.
The two sat next to the bonfire, and were not idle either. They took out various items they had harvested from the Royal Treasure House of Flan and carefully identified their value.
Among these items, there are only a few items with historical value. Most of the other items are all kinds of strange objects. Although I don’t know what kind of power these strange objects contain, judging from the energy fluctuations emitted by these strange objects, their power should be unusual.
"This emits the strongest energy." Leo quickly picked out a box that looked very quaint from the pile of strange objects, looked in front of him, and said, "From the pattern and style on the box, it should be the box from the early days of the First Dynasty. The pattern on it is actually a kind of black forest tribe called Tinunuwen. There are very few black forest tribes that use this text, the most famous tribe..." Speaking of this, he hesitated for a moment and continued, "The most famous tribe is called Batis. It is not only the first tribe that settled and unified the swamps of the northern Black Forest, but also..."
"It is also a tribe that believes in the mother of the nests." Sylvia took Leo's words and said.
Unlike Sylvia, the content that Leo focuses on the information about the Batis tribe is more focused on its role in the First Dynasty, and is secondary in other aspects.
At the beginning of its establishment, although the First Flan dynasty claimed to be the lord of the Velon Continent, there were actually not many territory controlled by the First dynasty. Among the various tribes in the Black Forest, many tribes were not much smaller than those of the First dynasty, and even larger tribes that surpassed the First dynasty, Batis was one of them.
In the early literatures passed down from the First Dynasty, the Batis tribe was mentioned more than once, and it was obvious that the Batis tribe was the biggest stumbling block for the First Dynasty to unify the Velun Continent.
How was the Batis tribe in the end? There was no record of any information. I just knew that the First Dynasty finally completed the unification of the Weilun continent, and all the Black Forest tribes became the aristocratic families of the First Dynasty.
But putting aside these official historical materials, the Batis tribe mentioned in the early books of the Tower Wizard mentioned the Batis tribe, but there was no specific time on it. At that time, the Batis tribe had all perished, leaving only a large number of remains, and those ruins contained a large number of statues of the Mother of the Nests. From this, it can be judged that the Batis tribe was the Black Forest tribe that believed in the Mother of the Nests.
Compared to the information Leo knew, Sylvia had more information about the Batis tribe, and all of these information came from the Orthodox Church, and information related to the Batis tribe was often accompanied by the Mother of the Nests, the No. 1 Evil God, who had been wanted by the Orthodox Church for a long time.
In those materials, there was no written much about the specific content of the Batis tribe. I just knew that because of the faith of the mother of the nests, the leader of this tribe was always a woman, and the woman's status in the tribe was also very high, and she belonged to that extreme matriarchal clan.
Because of the mother of the Nests, the Orthodox Church conducted a very detailed study of the Batis tribe and obtained a high possibility of speculation, that is, the demise of the Batis tribe was not because of the war with the First Dynasty, but because of sacrifices. Because of the large amount of sacrifices, it even even sacrificed itself wildly.
The Orthodox Church sent investigative priests to the Black Forest Swamp to investigate matters about the Batis tribe. After the current swamp gods were absorbed into the Orthodox Church, more information about the various swamp tribes became available.
In these survey data, it was mentioned that there were large-scale destruction incidents in tribes in the Black Forest Swamp area. Similar information was also found among Flange research scholars, but scholars and priests had different reasons for these destruction incidents.
Scholars believe that this is because the territory expansion of the First Dynasty of the Fran Empire at that time, all of those tribes died at the hands of the First Dynasty. However, the clergy of the Orthodox Church believed that the demise of these tribes was all because the Batis tribe wanted to hold an unprecedented huge sacrifice. All these tribes surrounding the swamp were captured by the Batis tribe as sacrifices.
Later, the altar of the Batis tribe that the Hannosa League found in the swamp, which had not been completely destroyed, also proved the priest's speculation, because there were a large number of human bones inside and outside the altar, and most of these bones died the same way, and the head was broken by people with blunt weapons.
But judging from some special characteristics of these human bones, these human sacrifices come from different tribes, and many of them are Batis tribes.
