"Are you chasing me?" the deputy in black looked at the rotting woods and asked.
"I can't catch up, I'm already running far away." The leader's face was as dark as water, but he waved his hand to stop the movement of the people below and said through gritted teeth.
With his eyesight, he could naturally see that the other party had some kind of long-distance escape ability.
The surrounding vegetation was complex and easy to hide in. It was very difficult to chase him and it would take a lot of time. They obviously couldn't afford it.
"I didn't expect there were two bugs hiding around here!"
The deputy said angrily, then turned and glanced at the team.
Several strong people in the perception system bowed their heads in anger and guilt, and stood with their hands down.
"Forget it, where is the perfect action? Some small accidents have little impact, I'm just not sure what they are.
If it's an elf, it doesn't matter, since we don't understand the language anyway.
If it is a human monk... it is basically impossible to be from the government. As for illegal cultivators...
How many of them have no sins on their bodies? If you hear it, you will hear it."
The leader frowned and analyzed, then straightened his brows and said, "Don't waste time, set off immediately to chase the envoys!"
"yes!"
Everyone said yes.
…
…
"Ahem!"
Somewhere in the forest.
Fluctuations appeared in the air, and immediately, two figures jumped out and fell to the ground.
As soon as Gu Cheng, who was pulled away from the teleportation by Jiang Ye, hit the ground, he coughed and spat out a mouthful of hot blood, spraying it on the ground.
"You vomited blood!"
Jiang Ye got up from the ground, his face turned pale instantly.
"It's okay, it's just a wipe. It's not a big problem." After Gu Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood, he looked quite depressed. He smiled at her and said warmly.
"Let me see the wound!"
Jiang Ye didn't stop, hurriedly crawled over, pressed his boyfriend hard, and looked at his back.
At the lower part of Gu Cheng's back, he could see that his clothes were scorched, as if they had been burned by fire, with a wound as big as a fist appearing.
The skin inside was also ulcerated.
The mixture of red and black is shocking.
"Tear~"
Gritting his teeth, he tore open the fabric of the clothes with his two delicate hands. Jiang Ye bit his lips and carefully touched the wound with his fingertips. Gu Cheng immediately groaned in pain, but gritted his teeth to hold back.
"Yes...I'm sorry..."
Jiang Ye said repeatedly with red eyes, then slapped his head suddenly and took out a bottle of healing potion from the backpack he carried.
This is also one of the few potions they have in reserve.
Unscrew.
Pour it into the palm of your hand and knead it.
Tears were pressed on the wound and smoothed.
After a burst of coolness, the wound began to scab, and then fell off. The effect of the medicine was extremely good, or in other words, the scar that looked terrible was actually much lighter than she imagined.
When the bottle of medicine was completely consumed, new flesh was exposed from the wound.
Jiang Ye finally felt relieved, then held onto her boyfriend's shoulder and sobbed.
"Okay, I'll just say it's not a big problem." Gu Cheng smiled and patted his girlfriend on the shoulder.
The attack from the leader of the men in black came too fast and too hard. Even if Jiang Ye activated his teleportation ability as soon as he realized he was exposed, he was still almost corroded by the turbid air. Fortunately, Gu Cheng blocked it with his back at the critical moment.
Then he escaped.
"Don't do this again!" The female voice lying on the shoulder sobbed miserably.
"……good."
After comforting her for a while, it turned out that the injury was indeed not serious, and Jiang Ye was a calm and decisive woman. After wiping away her tears, the two of them calmed down and recalled what happened before with some fear.
More or less a coincidence.
After Cheng Lin didn't return for a long time, the two of them discussed it and began to walk slowly towards the center of the world along the branches of the world. The speed was neither fast nor slow. They were just resting in the forest, but unexpectedly found a group of people coming. The two of them
He calmed down and hid for the time being, but he didn't expect to hear such a secret conversation.
He was frightened and his breath was unstable, and then he was discovered.
Now that no one is chasing me, I finally feel relieved.
"Those people are not simple. Those who attack us are at least level four, and may even be higher!"
Gu Cheng said with some fear.
"That's true. So, these people are definitely not ordinary cultivators. They actually came up with the idea of attacking the envoys. They are really crazy."
Jiang Ye also nodded.
After speaking, the two looked at each other and suddenly fell silent.
A question suddenly appeared before them.
This is obviously very urgent news. Once this group of people succeeds, I am afraid that the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Thirteenth Division and the elves will really be destroyed. If the two sides start a war, the losses will be immeasurable.
Do you want to... spread the word?
The elves don't have to think about it. They don't understand the language. If they want to report, they can only choose the Thirteen Divisions.
But... their status prevents them from contacting the government at all!
They are illegal cultivators!
Still a wanted illegal cultivator with a case behind his back!
Notifying the Thirteenth Division is tantamount to throwing yourself into a trap, but if the matter has nothing to do with you... The two of them looked at each other, thinking of the possible war that might result, but they hesitated again.
After all, they are not the kind of people who sweep away the snow on their own.
"If not, I'll inform the Thirteenth Division."
Gu Cheng said suddenly.
"Why are you so crazy? You are not allowed to go! It just shows your kindness, right? Don't forget our identities!" Jiang Ye grabbed him hard.
"But……"
"No buts, just not allowed to go!"
"Listen to me, this is not a question of kindness, this is also an opportunity for us, an opportunity to go ashore!"
Gu Cheng suddenly said in a very serious tone, "This matter is of great significance. If it can be avoided, it will be a great achievement no matter how you look at it.
Perhaps, we can use this merit to offset the past and make meritorious deeds.
Illegal casual cultivators cannot last long after all. We can still hide and hide now, but what about in a few more years?
What happens when we have children in the future?...We have to think about the future."
Seeing Jiang Ye's demeanor wavering, he added: "As long as you hand over the news in full view of the public, with so many people watching, no amount of credit can be erased.
No matter how bad the situation is, you can still get a chance to appeal.
We...can't miss this opportunity."
After a while of silence, under his fiery gaze, Jiang Ye finally nodded slowly and was convinced.
However, the next moment, she stood up and said: "You are right, this is indeed a good opportunity, but I have to go too!"
"you……"
"Listen to me, you have a murder case on your back. Once you are caught, who knows what those guys from the Thirteenth Division will do?
My problem is small, even if those people turn against me and want to arrest me, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Besides, I can teleport, so it’s easier to run away if the situation goes wrong.”
Jiang Ye's eyes were firm.
"……good."
…
…
Thirteen Divisions.
The engine of the motorcade had stalled, and the first vehicle set off carrying the envoys, but the remaining people were still facing off against the elf team.
Before the two parties truly establish diplomatic relations, this confrontation will inevitably continue.
It's just compared to the tense situation before.
The atmosphere is somewhat more relaxed now.
"What a pity. I really want to see what the elf city looks like."
In front of the motorcade, He Shouwu, the head of the Thirteenth Division, took out a cigarette case from his pocket with some depression, took out a cigarette, lit it in the curious eyes of the elves on the opposite side, smoked half of it, and said in a depressed tone.
As the apparent highest officer of the exploration team, he must stay here to control the situation.
In fact, in order to show that there is no hostility, the highest combat strength of the entire envoy group is only the deputy chief of the Thirteenth Division.
The others, including He Shouwu and Shen Shanjing who came to help, are still waiting here.
There were no diplomats around, so although everyone left translators behind, they didn't dare to chat randomly, for fear that a single word would cause misunderstanding and delay the important matter.
So we can only stare at each other and embarrass each other.
"It's really... boring."
He Shouwu blew out a puff of green smoke and sighed.
At this moment, suddenly, a nearby strong man in the perception system who was conducting investigation suddenly turned his head and looked in a certain direction and shouted: "Stop, whoever is coming!"
What?
Anyone?
He Shouwu held the cigarette butt and turned his head to look over, as did hundreds of other people.
Then I saw faint spiritual energy fluctuations coming from the forest over there, the air twisted and fluctuated, and a young woman appeared out of thin air.
Then, under the gaze of hundreds of eyes of the exploration team.
Slowly, raise your hands and walk towards the team.
"Crash."
The surrounding lapels immediately took aim with their guns, but Jiang Ye turned a blind eye and just stepped forward until he was a certain distance away.
The wind ruffled her hair, brushed her cheeks, and made the corners of her clothes flutter slightly. She mustered up her courage, faced the muzzle of the gun, and shouted with countless criss-crossing spiritual pressures: "Someone is going to attack the envoys!! "
The cigarette butt dropped from He Shouwu's fingertips, and the fat man's eyes widened: "What?!"
…
…
The royal capital.
Inner city.
A room behind the meeting hall.
In the spacious house, there is a huge gemstone mirror placed near the door.
The elves do not produce glass mirrors, and people generally use bronze mirrors like the ancient Xia Kingdom.
The natural conditions of the imperial city are better, so even the mirrors are made of cut gemstones.
"Not as clear as a glass mirror, but still clear enough."
Cheng Lin stood in front of the floor-length mirror and commented casually.
His figure was reflected in the mirror.
Now, he has included all modern clothing except underwear in the initial space.
From clothes to shoes, everything was changed into local elven clothes.
The coat is a huge, extremely black robe.
The black robe is so huge that it covers the whole body, even the figure.
In order to avoid the leakage of his image as much as possible, Cheng Lin not only asked Luo Jia to block all information about him, but also deliberately made his shoes higher.
"This way, you won't be noticed, right?"
Cheng Lin quietly stared at himself in the mirror, which was as dark as ink, with only one face showing, smiling at himself in the mirror.
He held the white mask in his right hand and slowly put it on.
The moment he put on the mask, the expression on Ellu's little face reflected in the corner of the mirror changed obviously, as if he was momentarily absent-minded.
"brush."
After dusting off his robe, Cheng Lin pulled up the hood behind his head, completely covering his head this time.
With this multiple insurances, he dared to represent the elves and meet with the people of the Thirteenth Division.
"It's a little exciting to think about negotiating with those big shots in this way."
He smiled.
behind.
Ellu walked over lightly, tilted her head slightly, and asked: "Isn't the envoy of God not a big shot on earth?"
"Of course not. On Earth, I hid it very deeply." Cheng Lin straightened his collar in front of the mirror, tied the strap carefully, and then turned around, looking at it in this almost completely concealed posture.
Xiang High Priest, "How is it? Can you see what it looked like before?"
Ellu looked at it carefully for a few times, then shook her head.
Cheng Lin smiled, "That's good."
Satisfiedly adapting to his new outfit, Cheng Lin was about to go out and walk around to familiarize himself with the layout of the buildings next door. Suddenly, he heard a knock on the door.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
The voice of an elf waiter came in from outside the door: "Reporting to the envoy, Your Majesty, please go to the side hall as soon as possible!"
"Oh? Just come." Cheng Lin raised his eyebrows, looked at Ai Lu, and at the same time stepped forward and opened the door.
With Ellu leading the way, we followed a corridor covered with colorful carpets and oil paintings by elf artists hanging on both sides to reach another door.
The elf girl knocked twice, opened the door, and turned sideways to let Cheng Lin, who was following her, step into the room.
As soon as he walked in, Cheng Lin saw Luo Jia wandering in the side hall.
The Elf King was stunned for a second when he saw Cheng Lin's new attire. Then he handed over a leather scroll filled with magical fluctuations and said sternly: "I just received urgent news from the front. There may be some powerful people who want to
We must intercept and kill the human envoys!"
"What?" Cheng Lin was suddenly startled and hurriedly took two steps forward, took the scroll, and looked down at it.
I don’t know what kind of magic was used on it, but there is a photo-like image printed on it.
Compared with the observation images sent back by the scouts in the main hall, they are more vivid and realistic.
However, it seems that driving this long-distance transmission magic will probably consume a lot of money and can only be used for extremely urgent letters.
On the leather scroll, there is a picture of the scene.
Cheng Lin easily saw the familiar cars and lapels in the pictures.
In the center of the picture is a beautiful girl with her hands raised, surrounded by thirteen lapels.
Seeing this, Cheng Lin's eyes suddenly widened.
"Jiang Ye? Is it her? Was she the one who reported the news?"
This is really unexpected news.
There is also a line of magical elf text at the bottom of the parchment.
The "elvish language" Cheng Lin acquired not only covered listening and speaking, but also included writing. He read this text without any difficulty and quickly understood the process.
"There are actually unknown forces preparing to attack the envoys and destroy the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two civilizations?" Cheng Lin suddenly recalled the scene he encountered when following He Jian before entering the projection, and made some guesses.
He was breathing rapidly and said immediately: "We must stop this!"
Luojia nodded: "I have urgently sent experts to respond to ensure that the lives of the envoys are safe!"
"You did it right." Cheng Lin breathed a sigh of relief, but was still restless.
Even if we have sent experts there, can we still catch up?
What should I do if I can’t catch up with the rescue?
Or, what if the attacking force turns out to be unexpectedly powerful?
There was no way to ensure safety, which made it difficult for Cheng Lin to truly relax.
If the Thirteenth Division also sent experts to rescue, I'm afraid it would be much safer.
However, this idea only flickered for a moment before Cheng Lin gave it up.
Now that the two civilizations have just begun to come into contact, the elves are very wary of these humans who have intruded into their territory, and it is absolutely impossible to allow the masters of Trisi to cross the "confrontation line" and approach the royal capital.
If he were to forcefully use his status as a "god envoy" to do this, even if it was feasible, it would definitely arouse the nerves of the elves, including Luojia.
If it is a conspiracy theory, will it be considered that this is self-directed and self-acted by humans?
In order to prevent these misunderstandings from arising, we can only count on the elves for rescue.
"No, I'm still worried. Once the rescue fails, the situation will inevitably become very passive. Even if the rescue is successful, misunderstandings are likely to occur if communication is not smooth... In this way, give me a flying mount, and I will
Rush to the scene immediately!"
Cheng Lin thought for a moment and said decisively.
"I'll go too!" the great priest Ailu standing behind him stood up and said.
…
…
A few minutes later.
A flying team composed of bluebirds took off into the sky. Under the surprised eyes of the elf soldiers on the city wall, they screamed and lined up in a "human" shape, carrying an elite elf troop towards the direction of the human envoys.
