Age of Adepts

Floating giant ships glide slowly over high clouds.

Dozens of head-sized metal eyeballs float in the woods beneath the floating giant ship, spraying faint blue fluorescence behind them. They travel between flourishing crowns and winding vines, and irresistible lasers of faint red rays sweep through every suspicious shadow in the forest.

With detective inscriptions and infrared rays embedded inside metal eyeballs, it is difficult for anyone with vital signs to escape its perception and scanning. With them as helpers, the wizards know what's going on down there, even above the sky.

Metallic eyeballs, that giant magical robot, are not loaded with any assault weapons from the outside. But once it is attacked by an enemy, all it needs to do is increase the energy intensity of the red ray and it can quickly transform it from an infrared scan into a burning ray.

Burning rays of up to 30 degrees of attack against high-ranking warcraft may not be enough weight to deal with ordinary jungle beasts, but they are more than enough.

So on this journey, only red rays of burning radiation echoed in the jungle, and every red flash meant that a humble life stepped into death. Four-legged snakes, horns, goatwolves, owls, hawks… These basically harmless forest creatures were completely wiped out this time, and were killed directly by floating metal eyes with little clarity.

A metal eyeball is like the bloodiest, coldest, despicable killer, never letting go of any individual with temperature and breath of life. In groups of three, they formed an unmistakable killing net, cleaning up the past along a fixed route, killing all perceived life forms along the way.

Driven by the ferocious killing of metal eyeballs, the vigilant jungle creatures had to escape from hiding caves, tree caves or underground and head back deep into the jungle. Those who fled a little slower died under a terrible ray of heat.

This is an area close to the coast, and according to the information Grimm received, there should be a small elf village nearby.

But as an outsider, even with Tamo's guidance, it's still very difficult to find a deeply hidden elf village in the jungle. So there's no way, Grimm can only use this grasshopper method to push those elves out.

Eating a ravage on the west coast damaged one witch, while another seriously injured witch managed to save her life, but it was also difficult to regain combat power in the short term. So there was a fire in his mind, and Grimm couldn't wait to find these elves and kill them.

In a floating giant ship high above the clouds, dozens of light screens are constantly changing the scene, presenting everything that happens in the forest beneath you completely.

Whenever a metal eye spots a difficult warcraft or magical plant, Grimm follows Tigular behind the eye with an instant call from a communicator around him. So the three magic fighters took turns cleaning up these sudden pricks.

Those jungle warcraft and magical plants were stronger, weirder, and could not resist the bombardment of metal bullets or the burning of magical flames, and soon fell one by one at the gunpoint of the magical warrior.

Finally, with the emergence of a small tide of beasts, Grimm discovered some of them.

An antelope and a brown bear mixed in the tide of the beast are fleeing wildly far away. Weirdly, however, they appear to be inseparable and never dispersed, no matter how they escape.

“Hmm, again those low-order Druids who will turn!” Grimm sneered and quickly issued a series of orders.

The mesh of metal eyeballs pulled away slightly deflected, silently staggering the antelope and brown bear into another line of defense. And in the invisible darkness of each other, a scorpion lurking beneath the ground and a little bat with a red-eyed pointy mouth crept onto them.

After the antelope and the brown bear left the dangerous area, they clung together and mumbled a few words, and then the antelope continued to jump and chase behind the metal eyeballs, looking at the situation far away. And the other brown bear rushed into the jungle, rushing somewhere far away.

In the evening, both Scorpion and Old Fox Winrill sent messages from afar.

Found Elf House!

So, without hesitation, the floating giant ship lowered the cloud, retrieved the metal eyeballs and the magic warrior below the deck, and went up to the cloud again, disappearing without a trace under the cover of night.

The cautious antelope seemed to notice a slight inappropriateness and immediately turned around and ran in the direction of the elf hut.

…………

Elf Hut.

This is a Pokémon village adjacent to the coastline.

The village is small, and there are only a dozen elves living in it.

There are no tall buildings and fine dwellings with earthen stone, only a small wooden house and wooden platform built on tall ancient branches. The tree houses are very simple, but the tree houses and the tree houses have built a suspension bridge between them with canes and boards.

When the breeze blows gently across the woods, the Vine Cable Suspension Bridge sways through the room, and the flowers and grasses adorn it to the wind are quite pleasing.

Owing to the small size of the village and its inability to support the large warcraft and ferocious magical plants, the village's standing capacity is flower essence, sword dancer and elf archer. As for the only two junior Druids, it was also because they were born here that they chose to stay in the Green Hut.

Already a temporary part of the night fall, on the largest ancient tree in the village, female Elf captain Lefia stood on the wooden platform where the elves practiced their arrows, looking silently at the distance.

Lefia slowly approached the edge of the platform, closing her eyes and using the power of her mind to silently perceive that message from afar.

This is the Elf's home.

Every tree here, every flower, even every ancient tree in the jungle, every vine, every little flower, every little animal, Lefia can name them and talk to them kindly. No one can catch elves in the jungle, because all jungle plants and animals are their partners, helping them erase all traces of existence and become their everywhere eyes.

As Lefia now stands in the wind, even if she does not open her eyes, all the wind blowing and all the abnormal movements within the radius of the circle can be seen in silence.

If there was danger, the jungle would warn her that the animals would make strange whistles and even the sand sounds of ancient trees swaying in the wind would send her the necessary message.

But today, for some reason, the dangerous aura has been haunting her, yet she has no idea where the danger originated.

In the middle of the day, there was a violent and terrible atmosphere in the jungle to the south.

For security reasons, Lefia sent the only two junior Druids in the village to see what was going on. According to the returning Sid? Pointed teeth describe the appearance of a horrible group of evil monsters in the wild slaughter of animal partners in the forest.

They are numerous and powerful, so that the two Druids can only observe and follow each other in hidden places, but do not dare to expel them.

At dark, Lefia worried about Druid, who was outside, sent two more flowers to pick him up. But so far, no news has come back.

That's what Lephia was most worried about.

“Sister Lefia, Sister Lefia...”

At a time when Captain Pokémon was most worried, a man and two women, two young Pokémon boys and girls, ran to her side.

“Sister Lefia, come and see! I was able to hit two willow leaves just now...”

The elf girl gently swayed Lefia's arm while she raised an elf feather arrow and wore two thin willow leaves.

“You just shot two willow leaves... Sister Lefia, look at me, I shot three...” Another elf teenager was equally proud to hold an elf feather arrow with three willow leaves pierced on it.

The elf girl immediately raised her mouth and looked angrily at the elf teenager.

For the elves, who are good at arrow skills, shooting fixed targets is something that minor little guys do. To be an elf archer, the most basic condition is to shoot an arrow through five slices of obscure willow leaves.

And the two little guys in front of them were able to shoot through two and three, respectively, which is already very expensive!

Lefia smiled forcefully, rubbing her hands gently on their soft, smooth green short hair, trying to say something encouraging, but violently noticed the darkness in front of her eyes, as if the whole heavens and earth had gone dark.

Captain Pokémon looked up creepy.

It was only then that it became apparent that the bright, clean moon plate above the high heavenly dome seemed to be covered by something, causing the entire elf village to lose its moonlight.

With Lefiali's acute vision as an eagle's eye, nature sees clearly.

Not the clouds, but a huge, unmatched metal giant ship descending from the sky, pointing directly at the elf hut below.

And the shape and style of the other side, that's Sid? That horrible evil monster the fangs describe!

Enemy attack...

In a loud cry, a platform up to 4 meters tall, all wrapped up in a strange metal shell, the fighting magic fell from the sky along a metal winch, knocking with a dull loud noise fell all over the elf village.

The next second, the murmuring metal barrage fired wildly at every moving individual, a sperm rocket spraying a long tail flame squealing towards a tree house.

A series of explosions and roars echoed in the Elf Village, and this tranquil and peaceful source of peaches suddenly fell into a raging storm!
