A dark space hidden deep underground and well beyond the range of myconids.
A settlement that is only the size of a village at most, but has not only erected city walls, but also arrow towers, and even many places with active magic aura fluctuations. It is more solidly defended than most cities.
within.
On top of an attic, Nice Enri, who rarely showed the characteristics of a "half-Yugoloth", was looking down from the height of the attic indifferently at the drows who were constantly coming and going in the village.
This is exactly like a drow settlement.
Moreover, there is no trace of the Spider Queen's faith at all in the village. On the contrary, many people can sometimes see the special "mask with lenses for the eyes" on their sword hilts, shields, or on their battle armor robes.
Look at the emblem...
This should be a gathering place for followers of the "Masked King"!
As for the followers of the "Masked King", they have always been afraid of being noticed by the Spider Queen sect, and they always maintain a high degree of caution, but they can allow demon elves like Nice Enli to stay here, and from the arrangement of their residence
From the looks of it, it is obvious that there is considerable respect...
This is the "Ozkwen Family", the secret stronghold in the Supreme Forest!
In recent years, with the continuous return of the Erlan elves, the Ozkwen family has not fallen behind after many wars with these wood elves, but the losses have been considerable, while the wood elves are still getting worse and worse.
Many have even revealed the potential to rebuild the Yeerlan Kingdom...
The Ozkwen family finally realized that if they continued like this, all they could wait for would be a steady stream of attacks from the wood elves.
In recent years, their development focus has been transferred to the Cormanso Forest through the secret portal they control.
And the Cormanthor Forest, especially Myth Drannor in the core of the forest, is under the shadow of those evil spirits.
Out of concerns about the "Return of the Elves" phenomenon and speculation about whether the "Great Retreat" has come to an end, the Ozkwen family has not only formed an alliance with the other side of the Cormanthor Forest, but also with the Drow family who are also followers of the Masked King.
It has also gradually developed a deep cooperative relationship with the demons of Myth Drannor, especially the yugoloth among them.
It was for this reason that when Temore, the high commander of the yugoloth demons, personally made a request to them to borrow their portal to and from the High Forest.
Considering that Cormanthor has become the focus of the family now, and there, the power of the yugoloth demon must be borrowed to a large extent.
After some discussion, these drow finally agreed to Temore's request.
This is exactly the reason why Nice Enli can hide here.
As the daughter of the high commander of Temore, and most importantly, the most important daughter among the many descendants of Temore, it is normal for the Ozkwen family to respect her.
Of course, while respecting... many times, this often means "inner alienation" or even "warning".
Nice Enli could clearly sense that the drow elves in this village all respected her but kept them at a distance.
Even, probably because she is here, the defense strength of this village obviously has an unusual meaning.
At least, she saw it!
"The Masked Brigade!"
The eyes of the half-Yugoloth demon girl flickered over some masked drow. Judging from the fact that these masked men actually glanced at her and reacted vigilantly...
A name that was only in rumors for the time being emerged in Nice Enli's mind.
Masked Brigade!
According to rumors, this is an elite army jointly established by the Ozkwen family and the Jelle family under the instructions of the Masked King sect.
Some levels of information even show that this army is sponsored by the "Masked King".
The "Masked King" hopes that his followers can conquer Cormanthor and even occupy the former Elf King's Court!
And this expectation for "The Masked King"...
Behind her, her master also has expectations for this.
Although her master has always had a dislike for drow, this dislike is more directed at the Spider Queen.
At least her master was not hostile to the Masked King.
After all, if the Masked King grows stronger, it will not be a good thing for either the Spider Queen or the Sylderin gods!
This is also the prerequisite for the cooperative relationship between Temore and these drows.
These thoughts in my mind flashed by in an instant...
"It shouldn't be pointing at me."
"Most likely, the Ozkwen family still has potential plans to return to the Supreme Forest. They have not decided to abandon this secret stronghold."
"The elites of these masked brigade are here, I'm afraid they are mopping up the troops. It is the greatest possibility to prevent the situation here from being exposed because of us!"
Thinking about this, Nisi Enli felt a silent sneer in her heart.
The Masked Brigade is certainly an elite group, but...
Just at this thought, her heart suddenly moved again.
Although the figure did not turn around, his eyes turned away from the drow in the village.
At this moment, a slight footsteps sounded outside the attic, and soon, another low-pitched warning voice: "Head!"
"Come in!"
In response, a demon elf who was also of Sun Elf blood and also showed the characteristics of a half-Yugoloth demon opened the door and walked in.
First, he carefully scanned the room and didn't see anything strange. When he saw Nice Enli turning around, the demon elf still said in a low voice: "There is urgent news from the treetop capital. The alliance has been secreted.
Achieved, except for Efraska who has not directly joined due to some secret matters, including Turang the Thinker, Druid of the Tall Tree, Mist Fortress, and Aylward and the Harper, all of them have reached a secret agreement
, will mobilize important forces to join Ye Erlan's camp before Madam Mu officially declares war on Hell Gate Castle!
In addition, our ‘Knights of Myth Drannor’ have also approached them.”
"good!"
"very good!"
Following the report from his close subordinates, a brilliance bloomed in the eyes of Nice Enli's castle.
Although this secret alliance in the Treetop City was born due to the combination of the "King of Demon Flame" and the "Demon Elves", but... whether it is inside or behind, she is also missing.
Secret push.
Although her master's spies were used in this push, the goal was achieved perfectly without leaving any traces in a strange place like the Supreme Forest...
Quickly suppressing this joy, Nisi Enli said calmly and rationally: "Temporarily cut off all contact with the other side, and summon the 'Knights' without any prominence, in order to cooperate with the Erlan people's primary purpose."
A secret agent naturally needs to be secretive to be called a secret agent.
If someone is exposed due to frequent contact, I am afraid it will alert some people in advance.
And with the completion of the secret covenant, not only the Druid of the Tall Tree, but also the Mist Master and even the "Meditator" Tulang may appear in the Treetop Capital.
In such a situation, naturally cutting off all contact is the safest control!
Although the plan was accomplished, Nice Enli was rarely truly happy, but the quality training she had received since childhood, calmness and rationality would never leave her for a moment.
"yes!"
The demon elf first accepted the order, then thought of something, and said again: "Then do you want to report this matter to the commander? Whether it is Hell Gate Castle or the secret alliance, even if they kill both sides, I am afraid it will
It's not something we can shake. Moreover, I have a suspicion that although the commander has temporarily handed over the secret agent network of Treetop City to us for contact, those secret agents may not also inform him about such an important matter...
"
On the one hand, these people are just a small team, and there is no way they can shake the Hell Gate Castle and the Secret Alliance. If they want to finally achieve their goal, they will definitely need more power.
On the other hand... as a close confidant of Nice Enli, and also a demon-born elf, he also secretly reminded Nice Enli not to ignore the Yugolos Demon Commander, let alone trust the Yugoros Demon Commander.
The "magnificence" of the official!
"Yes, it is indeed time to report to Temore."
Nice Enli looked a little thoughtful at first, and soon, as if she understood what her confidant meant, she slapped him hard on the shoulder with one hand. The natural strength made the demon elf couldn't help but bared his teeth.
one time.
"I'll draft the letter and you can deliver it in person."
In fact, she already had a plan in her mind, but the half-Yugoloth demon girl still thought about it for a while, and then slowly spoke while her confidants were waiting with a closer attitude.
After a while, the confidant quietly exited the attic and quickly left the High Forest through the Ozkwen family's secret portal.
And behind...
The half-Yugoloth demon girl who was still calmly hiding in the attic, when her eyes once again passed over a member of the "Masked Brigade"...
An inadvertent sneer slowly appeared in the depths of her dark eyes.
There are always people who think that she needs to rely on Temore.
But... I'm afraid only Temore himself can tell. Whether he or she, they are all serving the great master!
However, there is no need to reveal this to anyone, not even to hint at it!
…
There are undercurrents surging on all sides.
Inside Hellgate Castle, after the excavation of the "Black Hand Tomb" was completed, it became unusually quiet.
Isaac even had plans to go to the Black Prison, which clearly didn't require a few steps, but he put it on hold for the time being.
Hidden in the Flame Castle, he sank into an in-depth study of the "Black Hand Tomb" and various gains.
In addition to the many inspirations from the "information flow impact" of the "Immortal", the three "Stones of Knowledge" also have a certain meaning in the Black Hand Tomb.
And it means something to him... Obviously, these three "stones of knowledge" all have something extraordinary.
"One, it should be done by the 'Immortal' himself, which is a summary of the magic system of the ancient magic kingdom!
Look at this in-depth explanation... It seems to have the charm of a "textbook"!
Could it be that they are also engaged in ‘academic education’?”
This thought caused some strange color to flow out of Isaac's face.
"The second one specializes in the 'Necromancer System'. Although this is just a stone of knowledge passed on to apprentices, it can be seen from the subtleties in it that this person is indeed a generation who can control the undead.
Grandmaster!"
With only this "low-level" stone of knowledge, Isaac cannot accurately judge the upper limit of the "immortal", but with his level, he can clearly judge. If we only talk about the "necromantic system"
"In terms of achievements, the gap between him and this "immortal" is probably quite large.
This is not surprising at all.
After all, as early as one or two thousand years ago, the "Immortal" was already a well-known great arcanist with extraordinary achievements in the "Necromantic System".
Although the collapse of the Magic Kingdom and the evolution of the magic system must have affected him to a certain extent, due to the accumulation and development over a long period of time, he is an extraordinary and outstanding Grand Arcanist, with his specialization in the school of attainments.
To what extent it reaches is naturally beyond the imagination of others.
"This is the third one!"
Isaac's eyes were fixed on the third Stone of Knowledge, which was floating in the sky of the research room and showed light blue light.
A look of thoughtfulness slowly flowed out from the depths of his eyes.
In his realm, as long as it is not a highly magical creation like "Seruchira" and "Tekira", ordinary knowledge stones, even if they have seals, will naturally not be able to stop his interpretation.
This third stone of knowledge apparently came from Silvermoon City. Not surprisingly, it should be one of the treasures that the "Brotherhood of Dark Hand" swept away from the Silvermoon City treasure house.
This is not unexpected. To a certain extent, Isaac had expected this.
What really surprised him was...
"Exmana-Truesilver!"
"Tower of Windsong!"
"as well as……"
Thinking and thinking, Isaac's eyes flickered slightly.
Perhaps to pay tribute to certain people and certain places, there is some information in this third stone of knowledge that shows the origin of some spells.
And judging from this, and even more so from the vaguely familiar nature of these spells...
"Golden Scroll?"
He is very familiar with the Golden Scroll.
Although these spells have undergone great changes, since they all have "signatures", they can be linked together easily... This naturally does not hinder his judgment.
And if these spells have the same origin and are related to the golden scroll...
"Ekmana-True Silver, this should be the original creator of Silvermoon City and the first Supreme Mage in the history of Silvermoon City!"
"The Tower of Windsong... seems to be Myth Drannor?"
Some uncertain looks appeared in Isaac's eyes.
Of course, because of his interest in the causes and consequences of the "Crying War" and the shadows behind the scenes, he had a better understanding of everything about Myth Drannor.
But Myst Drannor has fallen for centuries, and everything inside has been destroyed, destroyed, and occupied by evil spirits.
Even though he had gained a lot of knowledge about it through various channels, he only had a rough understanding of it.
The name Tower of Windsong should have appeared in the Myth Drannor data set, and perhaps it was a research organization for spellcasters, or an academy organization for spellcasters.
By making contact in this way, we can connect Exmana-True Silver with the relationship there.
"Silvermoon City did not take Myth Drannor as its development direction for no reason."
"This can be explained if Exmana-Truesilver has a close relationship with that place, and even the magic learned there has been deeply influenced by Myth Drannor culture!"
"If that's the case... the elves would have already researched the 'Golden Scroll'!"
Thinking of this, Isaac's eyes moved again.
It has been studied for a long time, but most of the golden scrolls are still sealed under the "Grandfather Tree"...
"Did you observe the danger behind the 'Golden Scroll' early?"
certainly.
Isaac cannot absolutely rule out the rumor that the Golden Scroll is sealed under the "Grandfather Tree". Is this an error in the information from Hag and Kenil Walker?
"It's time to meet them!"
In addition to these two people, there is also the envoy of the Dragon Witch Cult.
After thinking for a while, he put away all three stones of knowledge with a wave of his hand, and Isaac finally walked out of the research room.
