The Voyage of Exchange - Rebirth from the Dead Chapter 39: The Vengeance of the Elves
Following Parliwitch back to the village, Sophia saw her taking out a throwing knife from her robe and sitting on the carriage with her legs crossed and playing with it. "Hey." The girl got on the carriage and sat next to Parliwitch.
"Don't act stupid like me, let's go." Pali Weiqi stuck the throwing knife on the carriage clasp, jumped out of the carriage, and walked towards Se'an City.
"Okay." Sofia followed Parliwitch. "Do you have any idea about the next mission?"
"The trap has been set, just waiting for the fish to bite the hook. You just need to use your foot power to catch the suspect. Fortunately, you picked up fifty Lindsay for almost nothing."
"That's pretty good." Sophia nodded, [But I feel like I always encounter accidents recently, and I feel like this time is no exception.] She felt that there was still a long way to go to Se'an City anyway, so she pointed to the forest that she had been to before.
He was in the position and said, "Speaking of which, do you know that forest?"
"I know, but I won't tell you the information in vain. What do you want to exchange for it?"
"What do you want? Let me see if you have it." Sophia asked.
"It's a pity that I don't have anything in particular. Let me tell you what you have first."
"What do you think of this?" Sophia took out a Breath of Breeding. "This thing has the effect of strengthening blood vessels and increasing physical fitness."
"If you still have such a good thing, then I'll accept it." Parryweich extended his hand to Sophia without any courtesy.
"However, you have to tell me the corresponding information." Sophia did not hand it to Parliwicz. "After all, I know something about that forest. If what you know is similar to what I know, then I will be at a loss.
"
A disdainful smile appeared on Parliwitch's face, and he retracted his hand. "Even if I say you don't know, you can still use this excuse. If you can't believe me, forget it."
Sofia looked at Parliwitch and said very sincerely. "The reason is that you didn't believe me at the beginning. I think my attitude was good at the beginning and I showed some goodwill. Although I don't know that you
Do the explorers here act like this because they are loners, but at least the way our mercenaries act is somewhat different from yours. I didn’t tell you just now, just to tell you this.
That’s all.”
"No matter what, at least we are partners acting together now, here you go." Sophia threw the breath of pregnancy to Parliwitch, "I think partners still need to have the most basic understanding and trust, and I won't
Do you have any suspicions about you? I am just such a person, I only care about the things I care about, and I don’t care too much about other things."
"I have used this kind of stuff so much that I have become resistant to it. It seems that you are not lying, but I hate you from the bottom of my heart." Pali Weiqi stretched out a finger to lift the breath of pregnancy.
The bottle bounced back.
"I never thought I could be liked by many people like Lindsay." Sophia caught the crystal core and put it back.
"The fact that you can say this proves that not many people like you, and at most they don't hate you." Parryweich took out a Lindsay ball and played with it. "You must have no suitors."
Sophia casually took out a notebook and pen, intending to record it. "Actually, I have no interest in men."
"Nine out of ten capable women end up alone, but you are not ashamed to say it so openly."
"After all, I have always been indifferent to these, and I don't care much about them. As for being unable to find a male partner because of my strength, and being alone all my life, the worst thing I can do is find a woman who is similar to myself. Someone who can spend a lifetime together,
It's not just a relationship between partners." Sophia is really not interested in men.
"Not being able to leave an heir is unfilial to your parents, and it is even more unfaithful to be a minister of the king. I can't understand your thoughts at all."
"Hmm..." Sophia looked at Parryweich. "My parents are gone a long time ago. My adopted mother-in-law didn't want to go out in order to keep me from caring about her, and she left early without letting me see her for the last time. I've been around since I was a child.
The home where I grew up.”
"Stop, I'm not interested in your family affairs." Parivitch immediately interrupted.
"But I think your concept here is quite different from ours." Sophia shrugged. She understood it this way, but in fact, assuming that Miller would be forced into a political marriage even if he didn't like men.
"Even if the customs and culture are different, normal people would not have such thoughts as you. After all...forget it, it would be redundant to say it. There are too many secrets involved in that forest. I can't tell you everything. What do you want to know?
?" Pali Weiqi still compromised.
"The king of the forest, that big monkey, I am still a little interested in the ecology of this forest. There is also the forest sage."
"What's there to say about the smelly monkey? But you know what convenient spell the forest sage used." Pali Weiqi raised his eyebrows and said.
"That's right, I know the magic that can communicate with other creatures. If there is any problem due to language barrier, you can let me try it, but it won't work in the city."
"Forest Sage, I once visited her once to go to the Elf Forest. He was a boring guy. He guarded the forest without any desire. In the end, he had to pay his own life force in exchange for humans not to destroy the forest. So you want to start from
What did that forest gain?" Parivitch expressed his doubts appropriately.
"What to gain... Actually, I didn't think about anything else. More, it was to help my companion find her home. My companion is also an elf, but I don't know where her home is. Since you happen to know how to communicate with the elf,
Relevant information, that would be great." Sophia smiled from the bottom of her heart.
"The relationship between high elves and humans is very tense. I am not a companion who cannot help you, but this is another matter."
"I understand, one code equals one code. After this matter is over, can you help us set up a line with the forest sage? We will discuss the reward when the time comes." Sophia is such a good person.
"The forest sage doesn't like humans. If you just want your companion to go home, there is no need to go to her." Parivitch shook his head.
"What's in that forest? He actually asked the forest sage to pay such a price in exchange for the forest not being destroyed by humans," Sophia asked curiously.
"That's why he's called a sage."
"Even if they are also elves?" Sophia had a headache. "Then how did you get to the Elf Forest?"
"How I arrived has nothing to do with you, but I can use space transfer spells to send people there."
"Did humans ever lose something in that forest?" Sophia looked at Parryweg's profile again.
"What can humans lose? A few human lives are nothing. Rather, humans are constantly encroaching on the forest. The wood can be used for construction, handicrafts, and charcoal smelting. The birds and animals in the forest are a source of food and fur, and even
There are also various precious medicinal materials. Can an elf who grew up among humans kill innocent people without any scruples for the sake of his own kind?" The contradiction in Parivitch's statement seems to be serious indeed.
"This..." Sophia shook her head. "I can't answer this on her behalf."
"Your answer is that you can't." Pali Weiqi sneered.
"Why can't it be another answer? It's not necessarily the only option to kill humans or elves. Besides, there's not much time to do these things now..." Sophia thought of the prophecy of the blizzard that swept everything, now that she has been promoted to a quasi-legendary
, but she still didn’t understand much about this, and she felt a little gloomy in her heart.
"This is not war, little girl." Parryweg paused. "This is hatred."
Sophia sighed. "Hatred... Do you think that if it were a disaster that affected the whole world, would hatred be temporarily put aside?"
"Then let me tell you, even so, the answer is still no." Pali Weiqi's tone was affirmative.
"Okay, sure enough I still don't understand a lot of things, but I hope there are other choices. I always feel that... hatred is just the point of no return." Sophia pushed her hair a little harder, thinking of the monkeys and rice
I pulled my hairpin, and thought about the great hatred between humans and elves. I felt like I understood something, but also seemed not to understand anything, so I could only sigh.
"The end of hatred is only emptiness, but you will never let go of hatred even if you know this. The intertwining of emotion and rationality will always be like this."
"What you said makes sense. Forget it, I'm not in a position to dwell on this now. Let's talk about it when I have the opportunity." Sofia shook her head. "Although my companion is here, I feel like we will get involved sooner or later.
In the past, I have a lot of information about our team's ability to encounter events. By the way, do you have a way to trace the source of the curse? I happened to be cursed yesterday. Although the curse has little effect, I want to see if there is a way
Find the source of the curse. After all, it seems to contain someone's wish." Sophia took out the bottle, "It's a pity that the paper inside was taken by my companion."
"If I knew the source, this curse would have been lifted. Why would I ask such a useless question?" Pali Weiqi said angrily.
"Then, what can you tell me about that case?" Sophia still had the idea of asking her teammates to help.
"The murderer is just an ordinary person with no power, but his methods of committing crimes are very clever and his thoughts are secretive. But he will be arrested soon. Do you want to hear the details?"
"If it's convenient for you to tell me, of course I'd be happy to." Sophia nodded.
"It's too troublesome to say it twice. You'll have a chance to hear it." It seems that Pali Weiqi doesn't want to say it at least yet. I don't know if he is really afraid of trouble.
According to Sofia's understanding, if you happen to see an information carrier that records the detailed steps of a curse, and then pay the corresponding price, there are also curses that ordinary people can cast in this case. "Did the body of the victim in that case not be found?
ah?"
"You need to add a quantifier," Parryweich's face darkened. "Only broken limbs were found, and they can match the number of missing people."
