The City of Heaven's Chosen, Temple of Life.
Saintess Alice looked at Li Mu, the leader of the Nature's Heart Guild, who had a respectful posture, and frowned slightly.
"What did you say? The secret mission to explore the ruins of the Titans in the Maple Leaf Territory failed? "
She was the person in charge of the secret mission "appointed" by Eve. She was responsible for the detailed guidance and supervision of many of the secret missions completed by players.
Li Mu, who had long been famous throughout the server as well as the famous video host of "Elven Nation", was naturally one of the players that Eve had hooked up with in this exploration mission.
This was not only because of his strength, but also because he was backed by the Nature's Heart Guild. Gray Harbor, which was owned by the Nature's Heart Guild, was the closest Elf city to the Maple Leaf Territory. Not only did it have the secret Amway Chamber of Commerce teleportation array to the Maple Leaf Territory, but it was also more convenient for secular transportation.
At this moment, this well-known boss, who had already reached the max level of the lower Silver rank and was equipped with six godly equipment (three of which were in an unrepaired state), also frowned slightly.
He lowered his head slightly and said apologetically, "Yes.
Lady Alice, we failed to sneak in. "
Alice looked surprised. She looked at the map in her mind that showed the distribution of Heaven's Chosen that she obtained under the blessing of the Goddess and asked with some doubts,
"What the hell is going on? I remember that your guild should have a secret teleportation array to the Maple Leaf Territory, right? "
Faced with the Saintess' doubts, Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "We do.
We do have a secret teleportation array, but when we used it, we found that it didn't work for some reason … "
"It didn't work?"
Alice was slightly taken aback.
She looked at Zero, who was sitting on the other side of the temple, leisurely drinking elven flower tea and looking at the scenery outside the window. She asked with a little seriousness.
"Was it destroyed, or is there some other reason?"
"It shouldn't be destroyed. It can still function normally, but it can't be teleported. It's like it's sealed … Oh, yes, it's the same as when we attacked the Death Desert. At that time, we tried to build teleportation arrays in the desert, but many of them also failed like this …"
Hearing this, Saintess Alice's frown deepened. She seemed to realize something, and her expression became completely serious.
"It's Spacetime Shackles."
On the other side, the cold voice of Zero attracted Li Mu's attention.
"Spacetime Imprisonment?"
He asked curiously.
"It's a power possessed by the gods. It can be used by the true gods, or by the churches through praying to the true gods. It can be used to seal the space within the range of faith … This powerful power is often used in war."
Alice explained to Li Mu.
After pondering for a few seconds, she looked at Li Mu again.
"Your Excellency Li Mu, I remember … Doesn't the Amway Chamber of Commerce also have a branch in Maple Leaf City? Where were the Heaven's Chosen Ones who were on duty inside? Don't they know the situation inside? The Chosen Ones should be able to communicate with each other regardless of space, right? "
Li Mu scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
"Ahem, Lady Alice, our guild hasn't stationed a Chosen One in Maple Leaf City for a long time …"
Alice was speechless.
"Then who's maintaining the operation of your branch?"
"Uh … It's the president of the Amway Chamber of Commerce who entrusted it to the human chamber of commerce there. Hmm … Don't worry, they've also been accepted into the embrace of the goddess by our missionary group. Although they're only shallow believers, they're indeed supporters of the goddess."
Alice was speechless.
The missionary group of the Amway Chamber of Commerce was quite famous in the Elven Forest. Their missionary achievements were remarkable, and they were very famous in the churches.
To be honest, if the name of the president of the Amway Chamber of Commerce was not mentioned, Alice quite admired this group of Heaven's Chosen Ones.
"It's a pity that ordinary believers can't communicate remotely. The Oak Hand isn't in Maple Leaf City now. Otherwise … they can pray to the goddess and ask for contact."
She sighed.
If they didn't become devout believers, unless the goddess paid special attention, they couldn't even attract the attention of the gods.
And if the believers were within the range of faith controlled by other true gods, the true gods couldn't even communicate directly with shallow believers, even if the true gods were the active party.
"Then, did you send out a scouting team? Gray Harbor is located upstream of the Vimur River. If you take a boat, you should reach Zeloran downstream soon, right? "
Alice asked again.
Zeloran was the second largest city in Maple Leaf City. It was located in the middle of the Vimur River, on the east side of Maple Leaf City.
In the past, it wasn't open to players. Only the merchant ships that came and went told the players that there was such a city downstream. It was also the city where the chambers of commerce established by the players often came and went.
Of course, now that the map of Maple Leaf City was open, players who were at the peak of the lower Silver level could freely go there.
"Yes, we sent people out as soon as possible, but they also failed to sneak in there. The whole city is under martial law. There are even high-level professionals stationed at the docks, forbidding merchant ships without passes to dock. You know, the trade we are doing now is all smuggling. Naturally, we don't have any passes."
Li Mu replied.
"Martial law?"
Alice was slightly stunned.
"It seems that … I'm afraid something has happened in Maple Leaf City."
The Saintess sighed slightly.
"Yes, something did happen in Maple Leaf City. This is why I came to you and Sir Zero in such a hurry."
Li Mu said respectfully.
Seeing his sudden eagerness, Alice's heart skipped a beat.
"Sir Li Mu, have you found out what happened there?"
"Yes, when our fleet was wandering outside Zeloran, we rescued a half-elf girl who escaped from a noble villa in Zeloran and got some information from her."
Li Mu paused and looked solemn.
"Sir Alice, Sir Zero, Maple Leaf City … should be going to war."
"War?"
"Yes, it's the Border Earl. The Border Earl of the Holy Mania Empire, which dominates Maple Leaf City, seems to have rebelled. It happened a few days ago. I think there will soon be caravans passing this news to the Elf Forest. We also saw a lot of mercenaries on the shore. They should have been recruited."
Li Mu said solemnly.
"The Border Earl rebelled?"
Alice was stunned.
"Yes, it seems that the Holy Mania Empire wants to take back the power of the Border Earl. The cause is a rumor."
Li Mu replied.
"Rumor?"
Alice frowned.
Li Mu nodded.
"The rumor said that the true identity of the Border Earl of the Maple Leaf City was not human, but a vampire who hid in the human world and sacrificed his soul to the Abyss Demon … Then, according to the" Sacred Edict "made by the first emperor of the Holy Mania Empire and the Eternal Church, the Empress of the Empire announced that she would take back the Border Earl's Kurfürst power and deprive Cappadocia of its nobility … So, the Border Earl rebelled.
"Just half a month ago, the Empress of the Empire had appointed Duke Rosen, one of the seven Kurfürst, as the marshal. He led the Empire's Third Imperial Guard Legion and several large mercenary groups, a total of about 80,000 troops, to the Maple Leaf City."
Li Mu's voice was deep and powerful.
After hearing his words, Alice and Eve, who was wearing Zero's vest, could not help but look at him together.
What he knew was a little too detailed …
"Did the half-elf girl tell you all this?"
Eve suddenly asked.
"Yes, Sir Zero."
Li Mu replied respectfully.
"Where is she now?"
Eve asked again.
"She is now in Gray Harbor, being taken care of by our members of Nature's Heart."
Li Mu said.
"Gray Harbor? Why don't you bring her to Fei Lengcui? "
Alice frowned.
Although Nature's Heart Guild was the Chosen One Guild that gave her the best impression, Alice still felt that the Elves who returned to the Elven Forest should first be accepted by the Church and led by the traditional Elves to integrate into the new Elven Forest.
After all, countless facts had proven that the Chosen One was too skilled at leading the Elves. Most of the returning Elves, especially the younger ones, would be easily led astray by them …
Not to mention anything else, just learning to eat meat and swear was enough to give Alice a headache.
However, after hearing Alice's words, Li Mu was a little hesitant.
He smiled bitterly and said.
"Sir Alice, it's not that we don't want to bring her to Fei Lengcui, but her identity is a little special … According to the Goddess' rules, before she becomes a believer, we can't let her enter the Elven Forest, let alone Fei Lengcui."
"She's not a believer of the Goddess?"
This time, Alice was really surprised.
After all, all the Elves and half-elves who fled to the Elven Forest knew about the Goddess Eve and chose to accept her as a believer.
"That's right, she's not a believer of the Goddess, and she didn't flee to the Elven Forest. Speaking of which … it's more like she was tricked … ahem, persuaded by us."
Li Mu coughed dryly.
"Who is she?"
Eve asked.
Of course, when she asked this question, she also secretly contacted the game network to look for the Grayhaven players' vision.
"Sir Zero, she's the child of a human noble and an Elf."
Li Mu replied.
"The child of a human noble and an Elf?!"
Alice could not help but exclaim softly.
Her expression first flashed with a trace of disgust when she heard the words "human aristocrats", but after hearing the second half of the sentence, it turned into shock. But after the shock … it turned into realization. Finally, she let out a deep sigh.
"So … it's like this."
For a moment, Alice was silent.
Until Eve's voice sounded again, breaking the silence in the temple.
"The one taking care of her now is Demacia?"
Li Mu was slightly stunned, and showed an expression that said 'how did you know?'
But soon, he realized that this was a game, and quickly nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
"That's right, he's taking care of her."
"What's her name?"
Eve asked again.
"Sophia, her full name is Sophia Von Wells."
Li Mu answered respectfully.
"Sophia Von Wells …"
Alice's expression was a little complicated.
"This is the name of a human noble …"
She muttered.
…
The eastern border of the Elf Forest, Gray Harbor.
The number of merchant ships coming and going seemed to have decreased a lot compared to the past, and the usually bustling docks were much quieter.
This was a sharp contrast to the lively scene in Gray Harbor City. Those who did not know would think that this was not a port city gradually famous for trade, but a bustling inland Elf City.
In the inner city of Gray Harbor, players came and went in the castle-like headquarters of the Nature's Heart Guild. It was very lively.
Especially outside the reception building of the headquarters, a large number of guild players gathered. They curiously looked into the building and whispered to each other.
"Where is she? Where is she? Where's the half-elf girl that Dema kidnapped? "
"Tsk, the innermost room. It's said that she's a sharp-tongued lady. Dema's face turned black after being scolded …"
"A sharp-tongued lady? 'Elf Kingdom' is good, I like this … "
"Forget it, she's a plot character brought back by the bosses, a hidden plot."
"The one that failed the exploration?"
"Yes, yes …"
"So … the rumor I heard at the docks is true? There's going to be a war in the Maple Leaf Territory? "
"I don't know … Brother Mu and the others seem to know the inside story, but they're now looking for Alice and Big Sister."
The players discussed animatedly, looking forward to it.
"War? Doesn't that mean … we're going to have a new war? "
"Don't get excited, the humans are fighting among themselves."
"Good lord, how long has it been since the game started, and they're already talking about 'humans'?"
"Hey, after all, I'm an elf now! Goddess Super Tall! "
As the players chatted, they stuck their heads out to look into the guest house.
Of course, there were two silver bosses at the door, so no one could enter.
That was until a well-dressed player with red hair combed back walked over with a plate of delicious pastries.
"What are you shouting about? Make way, make way, I have to go in to deliver the food. "
It was Demacia.
The players were dumbfounded when they saw his pretentious appearance.
Then they started to jeer.
"Damn, Dema boss, why did you change into this outfit?"
"Good lord, I almost couldn't recognize you after changing your character!"
"Where's your afro? Where's your afro? Your afro is your real body! "
"Tsk, tsk, don't tell me you're really trying to seduce an NPC? That can't be, right? "
Listening to the players' increasingly ridiculous teasing, Demacia's face darkened.
They were both high-ranking guild members, but why was Brother Mu respected by everyone, while he, the vice guild leader, didn't have any dignity …
"What nonsense are you talking about, I'm just changing my outfit to get information."
As he spoke, he entered the reception building.
Only curious gazes were left behind.
"Get information? Does Dema boss need to get information? Isn't he the best at tricking NPCs? "
"Tsk, he seems to have kicked an iron plate this time …"
…
Carrying the prepared pastries, Demacia came to the door at the end of the corridor.
This was the best reception room in the entire Heart of Nature. It was used to receive Alice and Big Sister.
He took a deep breath and put on a friendly smile. Then he knocked on the door gently and said in a gentle tone, "Miss Sophia, I'm Sophia.
"Miss Sophia, I'm Demacia. I've come to bring you lunch."
"Get lost."
A cold and crisp female voice came from inside the room.
Demacia's smile froze on his face.
