Otherworldly White Dragon Lord
Chapter 481 Who is whose prey (1)
In the early morning of the second day, Seratia in the Academy Hotel in Belika Town slept and woke up. Although they were sleeping, the two female soldiers sent by herself to be in charge of surveillance were teleporting each other all night. This information came back, and when Celatea opened her eyes, she found that the mercenary team had entered the Forest of Mist.
"Do you leave early in the morning? Really ~ lack of sleep is the natural enemy of women's looks."
According to the calculation of time, Celatea fell asleep after eating dinner yesterday, and now she has slept for eleven hours. Moreover, the dragon originally didn’t need to sleep every day, and it’s appropriate to sleep for about ten hours a week. Sleeping every day seems to be a habit developed by Celatea herself.
"His Royal Highness~ Do you want to have breakfast?" Garrods, who was guarding the door, had been conscientiously awake all night, and the black dragon guard who was still energetic asked immediately after finding that Celatea got up.
"Yes, we don't need to be in a hurry anyway. Let's act early after eating." Celatea said while wearing her clothes, seemingly disregarding that her half-naked body is being watched by Gal Rhodes.
For this noble clan princess showing such a defenseless posture, Garrods seemed to have been used to the general withdrawal and downstairs to order the hotel waiter to prepare early.

After enjoying a hearty breakfast in a veil, Celatea and Garrodes left Belika without a hassle. When they came to a relatively remote hill outside the town, Garrods was all over. His muscles swelled quickly, and the surrounding dark elements filled the surrounding space in an instant. Even the denser water elements were swept away. When a pair of huge black dragon wings exuding a metallic texture stretched out , Garrodes has completely transformed into a huge black dragon more than 40 meters long.
The black dragon's claws were buried in the ground fiercely, and the ice and snow dissolved some moss and other vegetation in an instant, and the whole ground became dark as if it had been soaked in ink.This is a trace of a large number of dark elements invading.At that time, if this piece of ground is not processed for elemental dispersal, it will take more than a hundred years because of the influence of the dark element that no grass will grow.
The huge black dragon turned his head and looked at Celatea, who had become like a small ant below. The next moment the black dragon lowered his head until it touched the ground: "Please come up, your lord~"
Celatea lightly leaped on top of the black dragon several meters high and found a spot to sit down. Garrodes raised his head, his wings quickly stirred up, and his speed was incredibly straight like a fired rocket. Rush into the clouds.
"Those mercenaries are heading northwest in the forest. Don't be spotted by them then wait for me to see the situation."
"Yes! Your Highness."
After giving an order to Garrodes.Celatea lay down comfortably, enjoying the sound of the violent wind whistling by her ears, closing her eyes and rested.
When a powerful black dragon was chasing from behind, the Eagle Mercenary Corps, who did not yet know what terrible fate would face, were still marching deep into the forest.This morning, after the mercenary group and the slave hunting group left the fortress station and formally stepped into the misty forest, the leader of the mercenary group, Garnat, was delighted to find that the howling wind and snow had unexpectedly stopped, without the large falling snow and all day long. The cold wind whistling in the ears makes everyone feel that the temperature has risen a little bit.
This is a good sign!
Gartner is very satisfied with the weather. It would be great if it can be maintained. Not only will the entire mercenary group be able to explore the forest for a longer time, the consumption of various materials will also be reduced a lot.After seeing the rare sunshine that the bushes fell on the ground, Garnett quickly organized a scout to take advantage of this good opportunity to quickly go ahead and explore the terrain.
Although he had a forest map purchased from Belika townspeople.But the map alone is not enough. After all, the map is made by the townspeople. The markings will inevitably be different from the actual situation. You need to confirm the display on the map before you can march according to the markings on the map. Otherwise, once you are in the forest Lost or the snow forest in this far north, then the entire mercenary group may be buried in the hands of terrible extreme weather.
"According to the information, this is the place where I first witnessed the appearance of the elves!"
Garnett was holding the map and watching the surroundings with several slave hunters. When it comes to fighting, Garnett is confident, but when it comes to tracking through some clues, then only the senior hunters in the slave hunting team have this ability.The hunters in these slave hunting teams have participated in many captures of elves or dwarves. For this reason, they know that no trace of the habits of the elves can escape their eyes.
It's just that the work efficiency of these hunters in the snowy field has decreased a lot this time.Because always the next heavy snow will bury any trace within a few minutes.
"There is no trace ~ nothing. Maybe we should move on. If those adventurers really encounter elves here, then those elves can't go too far." A person looks like fifty or sixty. The year-old hunter rummaged and shook his head and said.
The entire team quickly adjusted the direction. Although there were no traces of the elves along the way, many people in the team had already gained something. Recently, a newly recruited mage found a few rare blood berries, and there was still a mutation. Under the circumstances, the mage carefully put these precious medicinal materials into the pocket of his underwear.You must know that the various medicinal materials produced in the Forest of Mist are all sought-after products in the eyes of various pharmacist associations on the mainland.
A team of scouts sent out just before this time suddenly returned. Seeing the scouts' gestures, they seemed to have found some useful clues.
"Boss! We found this under a tree not far away." After dismounting, the scout brought a broken sword to Garnat's eyes.
"this one?"
The scout hurriedly explained that the remains of the long sword owner were also lying under the tree, but only this long sword caught the scout's attention.Garnett glanced at him and was a little puzzled. Before, many poachers and scattered mercenaries came to the Forest of the Mist with dreams of getting rich, and many of them never returned.Even if someone died in the Forest of Mist, it was nothing strange.Only when the scout showed the cross-section of the broken sword to Garnett, the leader of the mercenary group was stunned, not only that, even the mage on the side looked solemn.
The cross section of the fracture is as smooth as a mirror without any grooves or pits. If a long sword is broken or cut in battle, the fracture must be uneven, but this sword is almost like Tofu was cut in two pieces like that.After hesitating for a while, Garnat asked the scout to hold the long sword, and then took out the two-handed epee he was carrying with a very accurate sword, and once again changed the long sword into two stages.But when he picked it up and looked at it, Garnat shook his head helplessly. Although his sword cut off the long sword, the fractured surface couldn't achieve the smooth, mirror-like feeling.
"To reach this level, it is estimated that you need to use superior weapons, and the sword bearer must at least have the strength of a great knight commander." After another observation, Garnett made a preliminary judgment.
"Wind magic can also achieve the same effect, but at least a wind magic of level 7 or higher is required to do so."
The one with the highest level of magic among several wizards also made his own judgment. Elves are a race with natural magic perception. It can be said that every elves is a natural magician, even some young elves children. You can cast some low-level spells as you like.If there are elves inhabiting this forest, there should be at least one elven mage above level 10.
Although finding a broken sword doesn't explain much, at least one thing can be determined, and that is that there should be something in this forest, whether it's an elf or something else.
Several experienced slave hunters immediately went to the place where the remains were found under the scout to check if there were any other traces. The mercenary group and slave hunters also strengthened their guard at this time, and there were adventurers. The remains and there are obvious traces of being attacked. This is obviously already in the combat area. It is always good to be more alert.
In fact, what the Xiangying Mercenary Corps didn’t know was that this remains was specially arranged there just to wait for them to find it. Most of the adventurers and mercenaries who entered the Forest of Mist were captured alive and sent to Ulduar. The city was used as a labor force, and even after a large number of human slaves were sent, these captured mercenaries and adventurers were also thrown into the crystalline forest to'reserve'.Even a few people who were unfortunately killed by the combatants were well cleaned up by the elves afterwards. The remains did not leave any traces for these mercenaries to look for.
This remains was deliberately left here to be responsible for attracting the attention of these mercenaries, and further clues were also cleverly arranged, only waiting for these mercenaries to be clever.
Soon the experienced hunter found some clues around the remains. After discussion, the mercenary leader Garnett began to turn the team forward, and Garnett also cautiously let the scouts first take charge of the investigation.However, what every mercenary didn't know was that they thought they were hunters who were being lured into the abyss of death little by little by the'prey' they were looking for.
Not long after the team left, several Frost and Snow Elf scouts flashed out from the branches, watching the leaving mercenary team elves using the communication magic device and whispered: "The target is walking towards the town as expected. ." (To be continued.)
