Looking from far away, we can see the clouds on the upper reaches of the river.
The closer he got to the Forest of Fairies and Giants, the colder the river became. This coldness ignored Gu Qingshan's strength and directly affected his body and soul.
——What a magical river.
Lightning flashed across the sky.
Thunderstorms pouring down.
The sky was dark and gloomy.
Gu Qingshan stood on the river, feeling a little confused.
——I always feel like something happened in that forest.
He raised his mind a little, slowed down, and flew past slowly.
Finally, his feet stepped on solid rock
The surroundings immediately became dark.
Two lines of small firefly characters appeared quickly:
"You left the realm of the Gear Castle."
"Now, you have entered the realm of the forest of fairies and giants."
Gu Qingshan thought for a while and flew back.
He exited the realm of the Forest of Fairies and Giants and returned to the river.
The skylight pours down.
The world regained its light.
Although it was a bit gloomy, it was not completely plunged into darkness like in the forest.
"Strange, it seems that the darkness belongs to the forest itself."
Gu Qingshan pondered and jumped onto the rocks on the river bank again.
The world becomes dark again.
Gu Qingshan casually made a Breath Condensation Technique and tried to release his spiritual thoughts.
In the void, complex forces collided everywhere, causing chaos.
Gu Qingshan's spiritual thoughts are limited to a few tens of meters and cannot extend too far.
——Something seems to have happened here.
Gu Qingshan made a judgment in his mind and quickly became cautious.
Taking the Earth Sword and holding it in his hand, Gu Qingshan went deeper into the forest step by step.
The forest was even darker, and almost nothing could be seen with the naked eye.
Occasionally the sky would be illuminated by thunder, but soon it would be filled with darkness.
Gu Qingshan moved forward slowly in the heavy rain.
Not long after walking, he suddenly stopped.
Not far away, a thin man fell in a pool of blood, moaning.
He was wearing tattered bark clothes, with shackles on his hands and feet, and his face was haggard.
Most importantly, he has a brand on his arm.
——Slave brand.
Exactly the same as Renee Dole’s arm!
Heavy rain fell on him, soaking him completely.
Gu Qingshan stepped forward, let go of the Earth Sword, lifted up the opponent's clothes, and looked at the wound.
The man noticed someone coming, raised his head with difficulty and said: "Help...save me."
Gu Qingshan made a healing spell, gently pressed on the other party's wound, and said, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
His eyes fell on the shackles.
I saw that the shackles were covered with beautiful runes, exuding the power of imprisoning laws.
——After being able to communicate with the law, one advantage is that for some things that contain the power of the law, you can feel its general use just by looking at it.
This man had all his power imprisoned.
It’s strange, since Renee Dore was also a slave, why wasn’t she wearing shackles when she was found?
"Well..." The man groaned and perked up.
A surge of vitality glowed in his body, healing his wounds.
Only then did the man have the strength to answer Gu Qingshan's question:
"I am a slave captured by the forest elves. Recently, a war broke out between the elves and the giants, and we slaves took advantage of the chaos and escaped."
"How did you become the slave of the elves?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"I come from the upper reaches of the River of Destiny and am a militia member of the Kingdom of Silver——"
While Gu Qingshan was listening, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.
Gu Qingshan swung his sword into the void without hesitation.
when!
An arrow was knocked away.
Gu Qingshan stood up and blocked the man behind him.
"Who is it that doesn't even spare a dying person?" he asked calmly.
Two figures came out of the trees.
One male and one female.
Their bodies are taller and slender than humans, their hair is golden and black, and they all hold longbows in their hands.
This is the spirit of the forest.
They are a highly civilized race, often receiving selfless gifts from various laws, and are powerful and wealthy.
"With some strength, no wonder he dares to rescue an escaped slave." The male elf looked at Gu Qingshan and said.
Gu Qingshan spread his hands and explained: "I have no intention of fighting with you, but this person is seriously injured, and I think I should save him."
This elf should also have quite proficient assassination skills.
Taking advantage of the thunder just now, that arrow was quite lethal.
The female elf stared at Gu Qingshan and asked: "Who are you? Where do you come from?"
"I am from the Valley of the World." Gu Qingshan said.
"Huh? Please... prove your identity." The male elf said slightly surprised.
Gu Qingshan tapped the tip of his sword lightly, and invisible power fell from the void, lingering around the sword.
At this moment, the two elves had an illusion, almost thinking that the other was the incarnation of the forest.
"To be able to communicate with the world and gain the blessing of the power of the law beast, he is indeed a person from the Valley of the World."
The two elves said, put away their bows and arrows, and saluted Gu Qingshan.
Their attitude is much better.
"Please wait a moment, we need to report to Wangcheng." The female elf said.
She took out a nightingale and said a few words quickly.
The nightingale soared into the sky and soon disappeared.
Gu Qingshan asked: "Why did you kill this person just now?"
"Your Excellency, this is our slave, and we have the right to deal with him." The female elf explained.
Gu Qingshan squatted down again, released the healing spell on the man, and said to himself: "I always thought that the elves were an advanced civilization, but I never expected that it was still a slave society."
The man on the ground coughed loudly, pressed his hands on the ground, and struggled to stand up.
He tried several times but failed. Instead, there were many scratches on the muddy ground.
Gu Qingshan looked at the scratches.
The chaotic handwriting spelled out two words: "Escape quickly."
Gu Qingshan's expression remained unchanged and he still stood still.
He thought for a moment, took out the Six Realms Sacred Mountain Sword, and cut off the man's shackles.
The man's eyes widened suddenly, and an inexplicable aura erupted from his whole body.
"You can actually break their chain of imprisonment - let's go!" he shouted.
"Wait, we can't leave now." Gu Qingshan said calmly.
The man was startled, and his expression changed drastically.
boom! ! !
In the night, a thunder exploded, and the thunder light illuminated the surrounding scene.
There are elves standing everywhere on the grass, in the jungle, and on the branches.
They were surrounded.
Gu Qingshan looked across and saw that the respectful look on the faces of the two elves had long since disappeared.
"Hahaha, a slave in the Valley of the World can do a lot of things." The male elf smiled.
Gu Qingshan asked in confusion: "Do you always catch people passing by?"
"Only lowliness can set off the nobility - go up!" the female elf said.
Gu Qingshan sighed.
At some point, the long sword in his hand disappeared.
The rain stopped.
Darkness, deeper than the night, soared into the sky in the forest, peeling everything around Gu Qingshan and the man off the ground.
Chao Yin, painting shadow.
Heavenly Sword, Painting Shadow.
Earth sword, painting shadow.
The Six Realms Sacred Mountain Sword, Painting Shadow.
The four swords form shadows, the secret sword of enlightenment, the shadow of the sword rushes into the night!
Woo——
The sharp sword sound roared and disappeared into the distant sky.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
L.
The rain falls again.
Rain of blood.
Gu Qingshan stood in the rain, reaching out and holding the sword.
"Nobility never needs foil, only ugliness does."
he commented casually.
The man next to him was stunned.
"You...all the people in the Valley of the World are so strong?" He couldn't help but ask.
Gu Qingshan shrugged and said, "I have just entered the school for one day and am just a new student."
"Then what are you doing here?" the man asked.
Gu Qingshan said: "Well, something happened over there. Because I am a newcomer, I was sent to do home visits and other tasks - do you know a slave named 'Renee Dole'?"
"Slave! You are kidding, the elves will never give this name to any slave!" the man shouted.
Gu Qingshan didn't know why and asked: "What's wrong?"
The man said: "This is the most beautiful word in the language of elves and giants. It was only after I stayed in the territory of elves for these years that I understood the meaning of this word."
Gu Qingshan was a little surprised.
From this point of view, Renee Dore is not actually a slave?
But she was clearly wearing slave clothes, and there was a slave brand on her arm.
"I have also learned Elvish, but I don't know what Renee Dole represents in Elvish." Gu Qingshan said.
The man lowered his voice and said, "Beautiful flowers swaying in the morning wind."
