It's your business to quibble, so why did you bring me along?
World Tree couldn't help but curse.
Why doesn't this young man play by the rules?
"Great World Tree, is he a thief who stole the sacred spring water?" Borui asked respectfully.
As an elf, of course he knew that the World Tree could see every creature that entered the elf's secret realm.
"...It's not him, the real murderer is someone else!"
Forced to do anything, Yggdrasil could only tell white lies.
Faintly, it regretted entrusting the task to the Dark Swordsman.
That's right!
Unlike the elves who were closed to information and even blocked announcements of external rules, she still knew some of the other party's amazing deeds.
The other party could collect space-time monsters and wealth as pets, and he was a legendary dark swordsman, so she couldn't help but have some extraordinary thoughts.
But this person...
He lied without blinking an eye!
If she hadn't known what the other party had done and heard the other party's vow, she would have almost believed it.
"No...no?"
Borui opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Did you really find the wrong person?
"I am the city lord of the super main city. I have a prominent reputation and am a household name. I always do things with a clear conscience and never bother to lie!" Jiang Han looked around and said loudly, "Do you still want to beat me into a trick?"
As he said that, he showed off his honorary title. The title of Lord of Haixin City was shining with gold and very noble.
"..."
All the elves looked at each other, put down their weapons with some shame, and relaxed their vigilance.
Facts speak louder than words!
Knowing that the other party is not a thief, their behavior is really inappropriate.
"Since it was a misunderstanding, I'm sorry!" Borui apologized immediately after taking it up and letting it go, "We are chasing a guy who stole the sacred spring water, and we accidentally mistook you for him."
After being denied by World Tree and seeing such a noble honorary title, his doubts about Jiang Han were completely eliminated.
The city lord of the super main city came to steal the sacred spring water?
How can it be!
Even though they live in seclusion, they still know how high the status of the city lord of the super main city is.
Borui felt quite ashamed when he thought that he had just come angrily to call for punishment and ended up tarnishing the reputation of the elves.
"I see."
Jiang Han suddenly understood, and stepped forward to pat Borui on the shoulder: "Speaking of which, I actually met the person who stole the fairy spring water just now!"
world Tree:"???"
This person...this person...
Who is he?
"May I ask my human friends, where did the thief escape to?" Borui's green eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"Those are two naughty beasts. They are very cunning. They deliberately lured you here and made me a victim inexplicably." Jiang Han felt aggrieved. "I didn't see the details clearly, but what is certain is that they have the ability to enter and exit the elves at will." The terrifying abilities of the secret realm, so I chased them here, trying to capture and conquer them.”
While giving a vague imaginary enemy, he also pointed out the real reason why he appeared here.
"Two naughty beasts?" Borui listened in confusion, "World Tree, is this really the case?"
"That's right!"
At this moment, World Tree had the illusion of being pulled onto a pirate ship.
"What a coincidence."
Jiang Han clicked his tongue and marveled: "I didn't expect that the secret realm of elves is actually in the primitive forest. It seems that even if I didn't catch those two beasts, I still gained something."
Without further ado, he decided to get straight to the point.
"!!!"
Hearing this, Borui looked stern and felt bad: "Are you going to tell others the location of the Elf Secret Realm?"
The prerequisite for the elves to remain hidden from the world is that no one knows the location of the secret realm. If this person tells it, the elves' secret realm will definitely not be peaceful in the future.
Why did he still refuse to leave after learning that this man was not a criminal?
Because the other party learns the whereabouts of the elven secret realm, it will pose a serious threat to the elves!
"I can swear to the God of Oath not to reveal the location of the secret realm." Jiang Han's eyes were calm, "Give me enough benefits!"
"Human beings are really greedy!"
"I think we must kill him, otherwise there will be endless trouble!"
"But the other party is the city lord of a super main city, and his status is too high. If we want to destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces, it will be difficult to reach the sky!"
…
The elves whispered and glared at Jiang Han who was asking for benefits.
"this……"
Borui's face looked uncertain.
"Forget it, you can't make the decision, take me to see the Elf Queen!" Jiang Han waved his hand without any stage fright, "I think as the city lord of a super main city, I am still qualified to talk to the Elf Queen."
Regarding the elf's hesitation, Jiang Han was as if he was watching fire.
Revealing your identity is enough to make them take action.
"All right!"
Borui had no choice but to agree.
Afterwards, a group of elves headed by Borui took Jiang Han back to the secret realm of the elves. According to the development of the plot, the latter will naturally meet the Elf Queen and start the mission.
Yggdrasil observed their every move and remained silent.
She originally thought that the Dark Swordsman would leave first, wait for the time to come, and then try to persuade the Elf Queen, but she didn't expect...
He had just escaped from the secret realm of the elves, and now he returned to the original route openly and even took the initiative by talking nonsense. On the contrary, the elves were asking for help from him.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it.
"Is this the secret realm of elves?"
Returning to the pleasant grassland, Jiang Han took a deep breath of fresh air and said with emotion: "This is the first time I've seen him!"
"You go hunt down the thief and leave him to me."
To ensure that the opponent would not be able to escape, Borui ordered everyone to disperse, then smiled at Jiang Han and said, "Please follow me!"
"Thank you."
Jiang Han nodded.
Follow Borui as he travels across the grasslands and sets foot in the elves' residence.
Under the curious eyes of many elves, Borui led him to a room made of intertwined trees and vines under the World Tree, and explained: "Her Majesty the Queen, we are..."
"I already know the specific situation, please go down." A gentle female voice sounded from the room, interrupting Borui's report.
"yes!"
Borui took the order and retreated.
"Fallen adventurers, please come in and get together!" the Elf Queen said again.
"..."
Hearing this, Jiang Han's heart moved slightly.
Fallen adventurer!
It seems that compared to the tribesmen who are completely ignorant of the outside world, the Elf Queen's news is not so closed.
"excuse me!"
Jiang Han did not refuse. He came outside the room, opened the wooden door and walked in. He saw a plump and beautiful woman sitting on a chair. She stretched out her snow-white catkins, picked up a simple tea set, and poured tea into the cup opposite the table. .
Looking across the simple residence, Jiang Han finally fixed his gaze on the scroll hanging on the wall.
In that painting, the man with silver hair and silver eyes was tall and thin, high-spirited and pointing his sword at the country. He looked like a banished immortal.
Um?
Jiang Han raised his eyebrows slightly.
Is it my imagination?
Why does the man in this painting look familiar?
…
