Act 57: The Elements of Civilization II

Click, click.

Brando and Nymesis walked slowly in this crystal forest, and the frozen branches turned into flying snow powder under their leather boots. The two looked up at this weird forest, and the snow-white world seemed to turn into a

In the palace of ice, darkness seeped out from between the trees, swallowing up the sound, leaving only dead silence.

"It seems a bit weird." Brando stared at the lonely forest, and the white mist he exhaled quickly dissipated in the air.

"I can't feel any trace of life. This is a dead forest. Is it frozen to death?" Nymesis put a hand on her sword and looked around with vigilance as always.

"This is the legendary Tree of Mist, the fantasy forest that coexists with the Crystal Stag. How could it be frozen to death?" Brando raised his hands, took a breath and rubbed his hands: "The mission is not that simple.

, it’s better to be careful.”

Nymesis had a cold face and "Qiang" pulled the sword out of the sheath - but Brando turned back and held her hand: "Don't show hostility in a hurry. In a place like this, be careful to attract dark magic."

s attack--"

But the female knight gently let go of his hand, slowly pulled out the sword, and replied: "Don't worry, I can feel the flow of dark magic."

Brando watched her draw her sword.

"Can you feel the dark magic flowing?"

Nymesis had no expression on her face, "Everyone has some special abilities. In my eyes, magic is tangible. They are all over the world and are restrained by invisible forces."

"That's the law," Brando took a gentle breath: "Son of the Moon, your talent is better than that of Bai Jia. It's a pity that you don't choose the path of a wizard. The dragon magic that shapes magic is simply for

Tailor-made for you——"

The female knight turned back her sword with a clang and pointed at his neck with the cold tip of the sword: "I said, I am me, she is her. I don't want you to talk to me about this issue again, I hope you can be a little bit

Learn to respect others."

After speaking, she slowly retracted her sword. There was a soft buzzing sound, and a ripple on the blade vibrated slightly, as if an invisible air flow surrounded the long sword.

Brando was slightly startled when he saw this scene. The aura wrapped around the sword was clearly the flow of dark magic power - the black swordsman - he couldn't help but take a deep look at Nimesis.

"Sorry-" he replied.

But Nymesis turned around and walked forward first.

Brando saw the female knight's straight figure in the snow, her unique stubbornness and pride hidden in her bones.

He thought for a moment and followed quickly. He didn't expect that Nymesis actually had the talent of being able to see the flow of dark magic. Son of the Moon, the wizard blood talent second only to the Blue Calamity. No wonder she dared to say

You can find the crystal stag yourself.

The flow of dark magic is tangible in her eyes, and the river of magic in the forest is like a real river to her.

The two walked slowly in the forest for a while, passing through the dead forest paths - this rime forest was not big, but it gave Brando a very strange feeling. He also had the dark detection attribute because he brought Liu Ying with him.

, but for some reason, he always felt that the magic power in this forest was always strong or weak, erratic.

Finally, he asked: "In which direction do you feel the magic power flowing?"

"I don't know." Nymesis's answer was very simple.

"What?"

Brando thought the female knight was joking, but when he turned around, he saw Nimesis's serious face: "The magic of this forest seems to have completely disappeared, but it is not the kind of deathly silence. They

It seems like there was water flowing through these withered paths——"

The female knight pointed to the forest paths in the forest: "But now, there are only dry traces left."

"What, you said that the magic power of this forest is drying up - or has dried up?" Brando looked at Nymesis in disbelief.

Warnd is a magical world, and the plants and trees in this world are not composed of atoms or other smaller substances. For the world under Martha's Tiamat law, its foundation is based on four

On top of the major elements are fire, water, wind, and earth. As for light and darkness, they are not actually elements themselves, but are just a manifestation of energy.

In accordance with their agreement with Martha, the four elf kings continued to build the edge of Warnd on the border of the world, and the entire world was built on this basis.

However, under the elements, there is also the most original power in Warnd's world - the magic of darkness. Whether it is elements or laws, they are just bricks and drawings of this world.

But the foundation of the entire world is magic.

Without magic, this world would not exist, or it would be a dead silence. Just like this forest, it will wither and disappear, and eventually turn into dust.

However, this assumption does not actually exist, because the entire world floats on the sea of ​​magic, and magic is filled everywhere in the world. There is absolutely no natural black hole area.

Unless there is some man-made reason.

Brando thought of this and suddenly reacted: "Wait a minute, what do you mean there is something in the center of the forest?" He narrowed his eyes, picked up the scabbard of the Sword of the Earth with a bang, and then pulled out the dark blade from it.

out.

But at this moment, a pile of ice chips suddenly fell from the tree trunk above the two of them.

Brando was startled for a moment, and subconsciously raised his head alertly. Then he saw an ice fairy about two or three inches tall with two pairs of ice crystal wings standing there, looking at them with the same vigilance.

"Who are you? Stop!" The fairy girl stood on the tree trunk and shouted to them righteously.

"Who are you?" Brando was stunned. He didn't expect that there were goblins in the forest. This was different from what was said in the guide: "Aren't you going out to grab honey?"

"I..." The goblin girl obviously showed a shaken look, but she quickly wiped her mouth: "I am different from those idiots. I am a guard of the forbidden area. It is my promise to Lord Marocha to guard this place.

Responsibility...I, I will never be swayed by a little benefit!"

"It's interesting." Brando couldn't help but be very interested. He had never seen such a special goblin. "You mean, you won't let us in?"

"nature."

The fairy girl jumped down from the tree, floated not far in front of the two people, patted her small chest, and replied seriously: "Listen carefully, unless you step on my body, I will never

Let you pass."

"Everyone is responsible for what they say." Before Brando could speak, Nymesis had already raised her sword with a click. She took a step back, her center of gravity sank, and she had already made a military swordsmanship gesture:

"In that case, let's speak with the sword——"

"etc."

Brando didn't want to take action right away. The contradictory situation in the strategy only meant that there might be another hidden secret in this mission. But he was just about to hold down the shoulder of Nimesis beside him, the female knight.

But he was more decisive than he imagined. In a flash, he shot an arrow at the little goblin, leaving Brando with a chance.

"Nimesis!"

"Ah!" The elf girl was also startled by Nimesis's fierceness, but she immediately raised her hands and sang loudly in a high-pitched voice: "Blue Dragon, give me the enemy-killing blade!

"

She pointed forward, and three circular magic circles with a diameter of nearly two meters appeared behind her. The three runes of 'Vir', 'Oar', and 'Meem' flashed on the magic circle in turn. Advanced spells, Brando

I was shocked - this was not an ordinary ice fairy, this was an elf.

Densely packed, bright blue ice crystal fragments that looked like blades appeared in large numbers behind the little goblin, hanging in mid-air.

"Attack, Blizzard!"

"Nimesis, come back!"

The strong wind swept out from behind the fairy girl, forming a terrifying ice crystal storm in the direction of her outstretched hand. Countless ice flakes like blades rotated in front of her, breaking countless trees with a 'swipe' sound.

Nymesis was swept into the strong wind almost instantly. In such a situation, normal people should first choose to protect themselves and avoid the edge temporarily, but the female knight has her own tenacity. She gritted her teeth and put her hands on

A block was crossed in front of her, and there was a "crash", and the flying snowflakes immediately froze into a thick layer of ice. At the same time, the flying ice crystals instantly cut her arm, dragging long blood flowers and spinning backwards.

Fly away.

The Eruin military uniforms on Nymesis's arms turned into countless strips of cloth with a hiss, but she still moved forward, stepping heavily into the snow, and then leaped forward with a lunge. At that moment, the fairy

The girl couldn't help but widen her eyes, because she had already seen Nimesis coming in front of her - the female knight gritted her teeth, and the fighting will burning in her eyes was so hot that she almost spit out fire.

Her black hair flew wildly in the wind, and Nymesis spread her almost frozen arms, then punched the elf girl, causing her to fly out like a shooting star.

Brando was stunned as he watched the little goblin fly out and hit the snow on the ground, bouncing and rolling on the ground like a yarn ball for several times before stopping.

"Ouch, it hurts so much, mom..."

The goblin girl groaned in pain and actually cried after being beaten. She got up and sat on the ground and cried loudly.

The cry was so miserable that Brando, who was watching the battle on the sidelines, felt a little embarrassed. But he turned his head to look at Nimesis, and saw the woman who looked like a senior sister with a cold expression on her face.

As soon as he wiped his hand on his arm, the ice that was almost frozen with his skin fell down together with the blood.

Brando couldn't help but let out a slight 'hiss' in his heart. He didn't know if the woman felt any pain. Anyway, he felt a little pain just looking at her.

"Okay, let's continue." Nymesis raised her head and said to Brando.

"You're not venting all your anger on me on her, are you?" Brando asked reluctantly.

The female knight stopped, glanced at him, and replied calmly: "I'm not as boring as you."

As she said that, she put away her sword and continued to walk forward. But at this moment, the elf girl who had been crying very sadly just stumbled up from the ground again, sobbing and raising her hands with a bruised nose and face:

"I...I said, you are not allowed to go there!"

She replied whiningly.

Brando and Nymesis stopped together and looked at this inexplicable little goblin.
