Roddy, whose back was facing Pan Da, glanced at Kardashian and mouthed something secretly. The latter blinked, got up, and came to Rubens's side. She asked with concern, "Are you still hungry? I saw that you put in a lot of effort, you should eat more. "
"It's okay, Leader."
Rubens waved his hand, then got up and said, "I'm going over there to relieve myself."
Everyone had three needs, so no one was surprised by his request. There was still some space at the back of the narrow cave, so it was natural to go there to relieve oneself. Rubens came back after two minutes. As soon as he sat on the ground, everyone heard the sound of stones falling again.
"Retreat! Run! "
Iscar's voice was full of panic. The people in the second group immediately dropped their tools and ran back. As a result, after a few steps, stones began to fall from above. This time, the area was larger than before, and the roof that had been reinforced with magic had countless cracks. Pan Da and all the mages immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and began to cast magic to reinforce the roof.
However, their magic and magic seemed to be unable to resist the heavy boulders. With a loud crash, everyone's vision was covered by the dust that filled the air.
When everything quieted down, everyone found that the place that they had been digging for half a day was filled with huge stones and dirt again. The place at the back that had not yet collapsed also collapsed. The whole team was compressed to less than ten meters in this part of the corridor, almost unable to move.
Three mercenaries were injured by the stones, but their lives were not in danger. However, this sudden sense of urgency caused the morale of the team to fall to the bottom. People looked at the two leaders in despair. Kardashian's face was gloomy, and her hand holding the staff was a little pale, "Priest Pan Da, do you have any good ideas?"
Pan Da wanted to say, "The only one who can save us is ourselves. If we continue to dig, there is still hope." But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he realized that this was not the behavior of a "believer of the Moon God Clan", but the thinking of an arcanist. So the priest paused and said, "Now we can only try to save ourselves. I think … we still have to dig. We can't just sit here and wait for death. And I will try to pray to Sterian for divine power … "
"At this time, pray —"
Roddy was glared at by Kardashian halfway through his words. He immediately swallowed his words and bowed his head obediently, "I mean, of course, no problem."
Pan Da breathed a sigh of relief. He had always been cautious. Seeing the opposition, he felt a little relieved. So he nodded to Kardashian to express his gratitude, then sat on the floor and began to recite the prayer over and over again …
*****
At the same time, the Forest of Silents under the moonlight was not as quiet as usual.
Usually, the Wood Elf villages were unusually quiet at night. But today, Linis Village obviously broke this rule. A large number of Wood Elves from six villages had gathered here, and the chatter around them had not stopped. After nightfall, the light in the center of the village continued to shine. Bursts of powerful magic fluctuations were coming from the center of the crowd every once in a while.
They knew that another powerful warrior had been born.
At this time, at the center of the magic circle, Bati looked around at his young and magical subordinates. The smile and pride on his face could not be concealed anymore …
When he first learned that Brody had opened trade with the humans, he was curious and conflicted. But not only did Brody make a fortune himself, he even sent food to the village in winter. Such behavior made everyone in the village extremely grateful, but it also made Bati feel indescribable jealousy. Although Brody was nominally "exchanging goods", who didn't know that he was buying people's hearts?
Bati was very concerned about the little power in his hands and had once dreamed of "unifying the Wood Elves". Therefore, Brody's behavior made him instinctively think that Brody had the idea of "annexing" the village.
What should he do with such a person? Now that he controlled powerful magic power and had a stronger body, Bati's thoughts began to expand uncontrollably …
"First, we will flatten Erza Village. Then … we will let the humans know who is the master of this world!"
"Long live the Wood Elves!"
The Wood Elves beside him no longer looked sallow and emaciated. They were full of spirit and even excited, and their eyes were full of bloodthirst. Because of the transformation of their bodies through the magic circle, they were fundamentally different from the Wood Elves around them. When they looked at their compatriots, there was a trace of arrogance and contempt in their eyes.
Power and authority would make people lose themselves.
Seeing their attitude, Bati did not stop them. In his eyes, the Wood Elves who were not strengthened by the magic circle were indeed trash. Even those who could use the power of the Magic Crystal could only be counted as "semi-finished products".
Only by truly transforming the magic circle and obtaining the power of the Magic Crystal could the Wood Elves be qualified to become the overlords of this continent.
Thinking of the magic circle and books he had found in the ruins, Bati could not help but sigh that the Wood Elves had been blessed by fate. But just as he was reveling in it, the magic circle that was about to be activated suddenly exploded.
"Crack!"
The edge of the small magic circle suddenly shattered, and the power of the Magic Crystal instantly gushed out. The Wood Elf standing on the magic circle was a female. She wanted to dodge in fear, but her feet were stuck to the magic circle by a strange force, and she could not move at all.
Her shabby fur coat was completely torn by the surging power, and her naked body was revealed in front of everyone.
"Save me! Ah — "
The Magic Crystal that was out of control could only "explode". Seeing that tragedy was about to happen, Bati clenched his teeth and opened his arms. With a roar, the surging power that was about to explode was forcibly stopped by him!
If there were any human mages here, their jaws would definitely drop. Because normal mages did not have the ability to go against the Magic Crystal that was about to explode. Even magisters had to think about how much magic power they had … because if they could not withstand it, they would be blown into pieces.
Bati's ability was different from normal mages. He seemed to have a strong control over the chaotic power of the Magic Crystal. But with just him alone, it was impossible for him to completely suppress the power of the magic circle. His subordinates that had just finished their transformation immediately surrounded him to help … They did not know how to cast spells, nor did they understand any magic theories, but when it came to the "Magic Crystal", they seemed to have an almost instinctive control over it.
With their help, the power of the magic circle that was about to explode finally disappeared. Bati rushed forward two steps and directly removed the Magic Crystal embedded in it. The magic circle that was about to collapse finally stopped, and the naked Wood Elf in the center of the magic circle completely fainted.
Bati squinted his eyes and pressed his hand on her forehead. But the Wood Elf did not wake up as quickly as Scott. This situation made Bati frown. But after a few attempts, the unconscious Wood Elf finally opened her eyes. But she seemed to have lost the ability to speak. When she opened her eyes wide and looked at Bati, the unfamiliar gaze made him narrow his eyes.
"Help Ariel to rest." Bati stretched out his hand and put his cloak on her. But he added, "Jax, Mobley, watch from the side."
"Yes! Village Chief! "
The two who responded were the transformed Wood Elves. They were a little confused as to why Bati gave such an order, but they obeyed unconditionally.
After they took Ariel away, Bati began to observe the magic circle to find the root of the problem.
