About fifty years ago, the demon broke through the plane barrier and entered the main material world, settling in the north of Faerûn.
They built an iron curtain that blocked the sky and prevented the sun from reaching the ground. They also drew the drowning water from the River Styx in an attempt to transform the Northland into a filthy abyss.
At that time, the intelligent races across the continent were aware of the danger and tried their best to eliminate the powerful demon army. However, the Iron Curtain had been completed, the Day of Eternal Darkness was coming, and the descendants of the demons were lurking.
The Northland suffered such a catastrophe, and people's livelihoods were in ruins. Many races had to move away.
The Silver Leaf City in the Black Forest was cut off from life due to the loss of sunlight. The elves living here had no choice but to move away.
However, the elves are both arrogant and petty. They cannot tolerate their city being occupied by other intelligent creatures, so they try their best to hide the entire Silver Leaf City. They hope that one day the Iron Curtain will fall and the beautiful Silver Leaf City will return again.
In the hands of the elf.
After all, elves can easily live hundreds of years, so they can afford to wait.
For more than fifty years, a large number of human adventurers have entered the Black Forest. They collected various precious products in the forest and also searched for the hidden Silver Leaf City. But after searching for so many years, there were not many clues. Except for Ironforge Village
of villagers.
Ironforge Village existed before other human settlements were established. The people in the village are proud of the huge power windmill and claim that they built it themselves.
Maybe some people had doubts about this back then, but Iron Furnace Village has been very poor over the years. Although they produce various minerals and make various weapons, their output has never been much, and it is no better than the most unlucky Black Marsh Village.
some.
"Why is Ironforge Village poor? Because the elves sealed off more than a dozen mines that could still be mined, leaving behind all the mined waste mines. The adventurers who occupied Ironforge Village were unable to break the restrictions set by the elves.
, they can only work in the abandoned mines.
In order to keep the secret secret, the villagers of Tielu Village were unwilling to ask outsiders for help, so they could only guard Jinshan as beggars, which was pitiful."
Zhou Qingfeng moved the horse's head while relaying Cyric's words. Although this god of murder had a bad personality and was mentally disturbed, he was once an out-and-out powerful god. There were not many secrets in the world that he didn't know.
Luke and others suddenly realized it as if they had heard a legendary story, and wondered how Uncle Zhou knew such a secret thing. But they did not dare to ask, which made Zhou Qingfeng's image become more mysterious and unpredictable, and his origins were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Half an hour was up, and Zhou Qingfeng made a move to leave. A group of people immediately chased him from the direction of Tieliang Village, led by a big man with a beard, who shouted from a distance, "Sir Hugo, wait a minute, please wait a minute."
'
More than a dozen people ran out of breath, leaving a trail of smoke and dust.
The female Druidnar snorted and sneered, whispering to Luke next to her: "I have known Feizhe for more than ten years. That guy has always been known for his stubbornness and arrogance, and is known as the most stubborn person in the entire Black Forest. Only now do I know him.
The stubbornness is all fake.”
Luke has also been exploring the Silverleaf City in the Black Forest for many years, but has found nothing. Today he found out that these bastards in Ironforge Village knew some clues but kept them secret, and would rather not develop them themselves than share them with others.
"Fei Zhe, this idiot, how can he be stubborn? He is clearly greedy. But Mr. Hugo is the most enlightened. For the benefit of all humans in the Black Forest, he directly disclosed the secrets of Silver Leaf City." Luke took advantage of the situation and praised Zhou Qingfeng.
.
Uncle Zhou's face was slightly red and he was embarrassed to speak. He laughed at himself: "I am not a noble person, and I don't know anything about Silver Leaf City. If it weren't for survival, who would easily put such an important relic with
Share with others?”
The people from Tieliang Village quickly approached, and the bearded leader Fei Zhe caught up and shouted to Zhou Qingfeng: "Your Excellency Hugo, please forgive me for my neglect. My men said that you know some secrets. I hope you can
You can go to the village to discuss it in detail."
As the leader, Fei Zhe was very polite. But his men were not. After catching up, they dispersed in a semi-surrounded posture. It was obvious that their secrets had been leaked, and they must not let Zhou Qingfeng and others leave.
.
Luke and Nal were very sensitive. When they saw something was wrong, they immediately pulled out their weapons with a few clangs. Even Tambos, who had always been calm, took out his staff and took out a powerful arcane scroll.
It's too common for people to start fights over disagreements.
Fei Zhe turned a blind eye to this and stared at Zhou Qingfeng, suspicious and frightened.
When he first heard the news, he was furious. The secret that he had kept for decades could be seen through by outsiders so easily. But he also had some hope. After all, the feeling of being inaccessible was too tortured. Maybe he would encounter a break today.
man of.
Zhou Qingfeng got off his horse, walked to Fei Zhe with a smile, stretched out his hand and said: "Dear Mr. Fei Zhe, I am actually here to ask for help. Now we are all facing a crisis, and there are opportunities hidden in the danger. It depends on whether we can grasp it.
Already."
Fei Zhe was tall and strong, several times stronger than Zhou Qingfeng. Although he was a relatively calm and calm young man, he was a little guilty and impetuous. When Zhou Qingfeng stretched out his hand, he finally breathed a sigh of relief - this meant that there was still room to talk.
After the two shook hands, the atmosphere eased and they walked toward the village together.
"Sir Hugo, may I ask you..." Fei Zhe accompanied Zhou Qingfeng and naturally wanted to know the origin of the boy.
Zhou Qingfeng was walking in the carriage with a smile on his face. Before he could think of how to answer, the old dwarf on the other side choked directly: "Fei Zhe, you are a hypocrite, don't ask. Your Excellency Hugo is a real nobleman with a noble birth, not
You can figure it out."
Ranger Luke also disliked Fei Zhe, so he also supported him and said, "Fei Zhe, I have always regarded you as a friend, but I didn't expect that you had hidden it from us for so many years.
Mr. Hugo is a truly benevolent warrior who came to save mankind in the entire Black Forest. How could he tell you his identity so easily? You just need to stay humble."
Fei Zhe has a muscular body, a strong physique, and a flamboyant beard. He looks like the kind of ruthless person who is both thick and thin. But now that he is being teased one after another and suppressed by Zhou Qingfeng, his face is red with embarrassment, but he still can't
Talk back.
Zhou Qingfeng didn't say a few words from beginning to end, but he didn't expect that he was so successful in pretending. But if he didn't speak again, there would be cracks in the cooperative atmosphere, so he said: "Mr. Fei Zhe, I can understand your selfishness.
.Everyone wants to monopolize the benefits.”
Fei Zhe raised his head in surprise.
Zhou Qingfeng continued: "But now we are all facing a common enemy and common troubles. Next, everyone must be honest, tell us directly if you have any needs, and shoulder any difficulties together. If we don't unite and cooperate, we will be enslaved even if we don't die.
.”
Fei Zhe was even more surprised and couldn't help asking on the spot: "Sir Hugo, what do you want to do?"
Zhou Qingfeng also said simply, "I can help you open other mines in the Elf Forge, and I can also tell you the location of Silver Leaf City. Now I only hope to unite the ten human settlements in the Black Forest that have not yet surrendered.
stand up.
So I want Mr. Fei Zhe to do a favor and immediately send people to inform the other eight villages except Ironforge Village and Black Marsh Village. I need to gather as much strength as possible to first defeat those human traitors, and then sweep away those hateful goblins.
.
As for the profits from finding the elven ruins, I won’t take any of them and will give them all to you.”
