Chapter 351 Return to the Forest of the Elf (2 in 1)
Vehicles travel on the desolate and silent road.
The car lights pierced the darkness and cast a large halo on the ground.
Cheng Lin sat in the back seat, touching the blackened screen of his phone and lost in thought.
"It's forbidden to attack elves?"
The information revealed by this phone call from the counselor is worth pondering.
When he asked for leave, Huang Yin once asked him to keep the communication open. In addition, the counselor used the nickname "Mr. Huang", so it can be assumed that the call must have been directed by Huang Yin, and there is no doubt about its authenticity.
During the brief conversation, the "latest policy of the headquarters" was mentioned. This was obviously the Secret Service Department of the Imperial Capital. They had been in meetings before, and at this time they actually issued such an order.
"Obviously, the Secret Service has made some discoveries about this floating land projection. Is it a sign of elves' life, or is it simply a precaution made by the sky image? Not sure, but the former is more likely...
In this way, the elves may really exist in this projection."
Regarding this news, Cheng Lin had already made speculations in his mind, but there was still no evidence to confirm it.
Now this order from the Secret Service made him even more nervous.
Cheng Lin is not sure in what direction things will develop once the two civilizations really come into contact.
However, at least judging from this order from the Secret Service, Xia Guo clearly has an attitude of friendly contact...or a cautious observation attitude.
This is also a situation Cheng Lin wants to see.
However, compared to these issues, he is more concerned about a very practical and important issue:
"There are a total of six identical projections in the world. According to past experience, the creatures in the projections are also exactly the same. Doesn't that mean there are six Elf Royal Courts? Every elf has six identical ones?"
This idea is exciting just thinking about it.
What would it be like if six Ellu appeared in the world?
Just thinking about it gives me a headache... Of course, the premise is that the time span in the elf world is not too big and Ellu is still alive... and this cannot be confirmed yet.
With these mixed feelings of expectation and doubt, Cheng Lin seemed even more absent-minded.
It wasn't until a long time passed that he finally came back from his thoughts.
…
…
"Squeak~"
In the silent car, the friction sound of the brakes was so clear. When he felt the car stop, Cheng Lin raised his eyes and looked forward, and heard the co-pilot Jiang Ye say: "We are here."
arrive?
Cheng Lin turned his head and looked out the window. This place was obviously a wilderness. The car was parked on a rough country cement road with many damages. There were ditches on both sides of the road, and weeds were growing all over it. From the car window, he could see not far away.
There is a small forest and a wild reservoir with faint light.
Looking farther away, at the end of the reservoir, there is a group of dark buildings, faintly lit by two or three lights, which look like stars hanging on the horizon.
"It's a small village over there. Considering that the people in the village are extremely wary of outsiders, they keep a sufficient distance. There should be no one coming here. The projection hasn't solidified yet. We can only wait slowly and move if there is an accident.
." Jiang Ye introduced from the rearview mirror when he saw Cheng Lin observing the outside.
Gu Cheng took out the key, and the car's engine was completely turned off. The low sound of the car disappeared for a while, and his ears and eyes became extremely silent. The chirping of insects in the wild came over, adding a bit of eerieness to the surroundings.
"kindness."
Cheng Lin nodded, then opened the car door with a click, put on the coat he carried, and stood firm on the concrete road with his feet.
"Dong, dong..."
There were sounds of car doors closing one after another, and Gu Cheng and Jiang Ye also stepped out of the car. Cheng Lin took out his mobile phone, turned on the screen, and looked at the time:
3:21 am
This is the time when people are most tired. Even though the three of them are practitioners, their eyelids still instinctively become a little heavy, especially Gu Cheng and Jiang Ye, whose faces are even more sleepy.
"Eat this to refresh yourself."
Cheng Lin handed over two fragments of a small bronze tree and said, and then chewed one piece himself. Because he had eaten too much, it had no effect, but the young Taoist monk immediately became energetic.
"It looks like it may not solidify before dawn."
Cheng Lin leaned his back against the cold car door. In the early autumn night, he raised his head and stared at the sky. With the eyesight beyond ordinary people, he could barely catch a glimpse of the branches hanging down on the ground. They were already at the edge of the floating land, and the entire floating land was like a
An extremely huge cloud covered most of the sky.
"When it solidifies, I'm afraid there will be many places where you won't be able to see the sun for a short time and will always be in darkness."
Gu Cheng, who was full of energy, suddenly spoke.
"That's true. I hope it won't be too hard for those who work the night shift." Cheng Lin said a very cold joke, and then saw that no one laughed, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
The floating land will cover the sun, causing many cities to not see the light of day for a period of time. This is completely foreseeable. Fortunately, the projection generally does not last too long, and people who are prepared will not be unable to react.
Standing next to the car, the atmosphere fell silent for a moment.
Probably considering that the atmosphere of standing silently was not good, Jiang Ye looked at Cheng Lin with nothing to say and asked: "There is a question I haven't asked... Your sister didn't come with you this time? Of course, if it's inconvenient,
, no need to answer.”
younger sister?
Cheng Lin was startled for a moment, and the image of Cao Wei wearing an apron, a headband, and a maid outfit appeared in his mind. Although they had only been apart for half a month, he actually missed her a little at this time.
"She, the family is very strict, so she didn't come."
Cheng Lin answered with a smile.
The family is strictly controlled? What is the reason for this?
Jiang Ye was speechless.
The topic ended and silence fell again.
During this period, Jiang Ye tried to liven up the atmosphere several times, but in the end they were unsuccessful. The main reason was that although they were in strategic alliance, they were smart enough not to ask too much about Cheng Lin's identity. The same was true for Cheng Lin.
In this way, many topics can only get started but cannot be continued.
Fortunately, I kept silent and gradually got used to it.
During the waiting time, the three of them simply started practicing in the nearby strong aura environment created by the projection, so that the wait was no longer so difficult.
I don't know how much time had passed, but when Cheng Lin was pulled out of his practice state by a loud rumbling sound, he was shocked to find that it was already broad daylight.
The night dissipated... To be precise, half of the sky behind them was replaced by bright daylight, while the other half of the world shrouded by the floating land projection was still in darkness.
This is truly a spectacle.
Half day, half night, with large shadows slowly moving in between.
It was also the first time for Cheng Lin to see such a scenery. He couldn't help but look at it a few more times. When he came back to his senses, he heard Jiang Ye shouting next to him: "The projection is solid!"
Yes.
After nearly two days of planning, this floating land projection finally became a reality!
Cheng Lin raised his head and saw the land mass floating in the sky, the green trees on the edge, and the branches hanging down from the extremely high sky. Some were huge and could be driven by traffic, and some were extremely small, just like the most ordinary ones.
The wicker hangs softly.
In that wild reservoir, the dense shadows of trees are reflected on the light green water, and the reflections move when the breeze blows.
The huge projection finally became reality at this moment!
At this moment, the six major projections around the world pushed away the air at the same time, causing a huge boom. The various water surfaces, streams, and lakes covered by them all experienced "tidal" phenomena to varying degrees. This was the effect of gravity.
I don't know if it's a psychological illusion, but at this moment, countless people living in the city under the projection vaguely felt that their bodies were a little lighter.
They all stuck their heads out and walked to the street, looking far into the sky, but all they could see was darkness.
…
A projected edge somewhere.
All the exploration personnel of the Thirteenth Division of Shudu are already in place. Densely packed young men in crisp uniforms have either boarded the helicopter or climbed up along the hanging ropes. The broad and fat Chief of the Thirteenth Division
Standing at the forefront, his expression was particularly dignified and serious.
Behind him, several monks from other departments and bureaus who came to help lined up quietly and vigorously. On the other side, a team of researchers from the Imperial and Demonic Capitals looked up at this scene with equal excitement.
"All personnel, land!" The leader of the Thirteenth Division waved his hand and gave the order while the group was in panic!
…
Almost at the same time, the practitioners guarding the six major projections around the world all showed their magical powers and climbed up to the high floating continent.
Among them, in addition to the cultivation organizations of major countries, there are also countless casual practitioners.
…
Somewhere on the edge of the Shu capital projection, on a remote mountain peak, a small team was looking up at the dark floating land. The auras of these people were uneven, some were still calm, and some could no longer stop the excitement in their eyes.
greedy.
Han Lun, who was carrying a backpack, stood quietly in the crowd, his face covered, trying to look inconspicuous, but his eyes secretly swept over everyone in the team, and the hand stuffed in his pocket slowly stroked the crystal dagger.
I don't know what I'm thinking about.
…
In a certain deserted forest, a group of guys dressed in black stood in the forest like ghosts. Some of them were using a communicator to make final contact with someone.
After a while, the leading figure who looked up at Fu Lu seemed to sigh deeply and helplessly, moved his lips, and seemed to have cursed, and then waved, so everyone stopped and looked at him.
.
"Let's go," he said.
…
"Let's go too."
Beside a deserted cement road.
Gu Cheng symbolically locked the car door, then turned back and looked at Jiang Ye.
The girl in her twenties nodded. She was wearing a camouflage jacket and was zipping it up to the collar. Then she checked her tightly tied hair, tight shoelaces, similarly camouflage pants, and finally put on her mask.
Put it on.
After that, she stretched out her hands, clasped her left hand with her boyfriend, and her right arm was held by Cheng Lin.
After that, she took a deep breath, and the spiritual energy fluctuations spread and kept rising, and the second-grade and second-level spiritual energy reserves burned crazily.
"3,2,1! Get up!"
The next moment, a faint light flashed, and the three people had disappeared, leaving only the lonely car.
At the same time, hundreds of meters above the ground, a huge branch was hanging in mid-air.
Suddenly, three figures appeared out of thin air, stretched out their hands to grasp the branches, then looked at each other and nodded. The three of them were like ants, climbing up the branches at extremely fast speeds...and up again...
It took nearly an hour for the three of them to finally climb onto the floating land.
"thump!"
"thump!"
Gu Cheng and Jiang Ye fell down on the solid ground, panting. Obviously, this extreme climb was not easy for them... Mainly, they were not physical monks, and their physical fitness was only better than ordinary people.
As for Cheng Lin, he just jumped slightly and stood on this strange yet familiar land.
Breathing is only slightly rapid.
"Let's take a rest first. There's no one around."
He closed his eyes and sensed for a while, then said.
Surrounded by a vast forest, it was impossible to discern the direction. Even if he raised the "tentacles", Cheng Lin still could not clearly see the surrounding landforms. After all, the tentacles only extended his field of vision, but could not penetrate the world blocked by dense leaves.
Fortunately, he doesn't need to know this, his goals are clear and stable.
"World Tree!"
He looked ahead. There stood a giant tree that connected the sky and the earth, filled with endless vitality. It was the center of the floating continent and the most prominent landmark.
"We can go."
After resting for a while, Gu Cheng and Jiang Ye got up. The former had returned to normal. The young woman Jiang Ye was a little worse and her face was still a little pale. Cheng Lin looked at it and threw her a bottle of potion to restore spiritual energy. Obviously, he took the two of them for an instant.
Moving is also a big burden for her.
Jiang Ye hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse. After drinking the potion, her complexion obviously improved a lot. Then she once again found out the red rope wrapped around the slender fingers of her magic weapon. She shook it off at the moment, and the red rope hung down, and it was tied
On the hand, a bronze pointer hangs underneath.
She had used this magic weapon in the frozen soil projection, and it had the ability to point to the location of high-concentration spiritual energy.
Cheng Lin was quite pleased to see it. He felt that the team he formed was indeed very practical. This way, he would not have to use his powers to search slowly. His plan was to advance towards the World Tree, fight World of Warcraft and dig around on the way.
Ling Zhi Ling Guo, by the way, observe the development of the situation.
This is reality now, not a deduction, so he must be more cautious.
"This way."
After a moment, the pointer in Jiang Ye's hand pointed in a direction.
The three of them immediately entered the woods and walked forward. The sunlight was just right at the moment, passing through the dense branches and leaves, casting shining spots on the ground. The whole forest was lush with ancient trees. Listening carefully, there were also birds chirping and beasts roaring in the distance.
There are all kinds of plants and flowers that are not found on the earth, which makes people can’t help but stop and take a closer look.
"It's like walking into a primeval forest." Jiang Ye couldn't help but marvel. As he walked, he took out his mobile phone, turned on the camera and took a few photos.
"What does it look like? I feel it is." Gu Cheng was reserved, hesitated for a moment, and took a few pictures.
Cheng Lin watched with a faint smile, but did not interrupt. These scenery had a mysterious attraction to them, but to him, it was already a scenery he had seen before.
Compared to the elven city built with tree guards, the trees and plants here seem a bit unattractive.
"I'm afraid you will be surprised when you see the elf city."
He thought to himself.
"What sound?!"
Suddenly, Jiang Ye, who was holding a cell phone to take pictures, stopped suddenly, and Gu Cheng subconsciously reached out and grabbed a handful of marbles from his pocket.
Just listen, there are all deep sounds coming from the forest ahead, and they are approaching quickly.
"Who is it? Come out!"
Gu Cheng stretched out his right hand, spread his fingers, and held a total of seven marbles between his fingers, ready to go.
