The granary was indeed on fire, and thick smoke was billowing. The dog-headed clan that was guarding the granary kept pumping water from the well. The troops that specialized in fire fighting rushed over. They knew how to use magic to put out the fire, but at this moment, facing this fire, their magic seemed to be ineffective.
Then, they called over a flying ship and poured a basin of water from the sky, but it was just a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. Until the clan leaders arrived and saw this terrible fire.
"Disperse the surrounding people! Cut down the surrounding trees, don't let the fire spread! "
Seeing that the fire was not good, the centaur clan leader immediately gave the order.
Boom! Just a few seconds after he finished speaking, the burning granary exploded, and the stone building collapsed with a loud bang. Everyone immediately ran out. The terrible fire made a whistling sound, and the heat wave burned the surrounding area black.
Reina immediately walked to the scene, and only heard a crisp sound, a blue trident appeared in her hand. She closed her eyes and held it vertically in front of her. In an instant, the sound of a flood burst out, and a shocking water flow emerged from the bottom of her feet, directly toward the burning granary.
Fire and water collided, and in an instant, a large amount of white smoke appeared. It broke through the water flow and made a terrible explosion, and the smoke carried an unpleasant smell. In this endless stream of water, the fire was still stubbornly burning, and there were no signs of it extinguishing at all.
This was different from an ordinary fire, and she felt that this was not an ordinary fire.
Reina knew that this granary was definitely not salvageable, and she could only prevent the fire from causing more damage. In an instant, she controlled the water flow and wrapped the burning granary up, and at the same time, she cast a teleportation spell.
In the blink of an eye, the huge water ball disappeared without a trace in front of everyone, and the loud sound changed into the whistling of the wind. Under Reina's amazing magic, the fire was extinguished, and the granary was moved to the flat ground, and the surroundings quickly quieted down.
The people who were putting out the fire did not have time to react. A moment ago, they were still frantically putting out the fire, but now, they did not know what to do. They stood there in a daze, looking at the wreckage in front of them.
"Well done, but I hope you can use a gentler method next time."
Then, he ordered his subordinates to count the number of injured people. The other clan leaders also called for help. The efficiency of the people here was very high. Under the organization of the clan leaders, the results were quickly obtained.
"Fortunately, there were no casualties in this fire, except for an idiot who broke his leg while trying to put out the fire. Also, this granary is the oldest one. The grain inside is from four years ago. Even if it wasn't burned, it would have been cleaned up. Everything is fine now. I still have to clean up the scene. You guys go and report to Halla for me."
The Dog Head Clan's patriarch said to the other patriarchs, unwillingly expressing his heartfelt gratitude.
However, just as everyone was about to leave, the sound of galloping hooves attracted everyone's attention. A centaur rushed over, and after seeing the centaur leader, he began to slow down.
"What happened?"
The centaur patriarch seemed to have noticed something. The latter looked at the people around him vigilantly. It seemed that there were some things that were inconvenient to say in public.
"Speak. We are all on the same side."
The centaur patriarch said. Hearing this, the young centaur said, "Patriarch, something bad has happened. Lord Halla was injured by an assassin and is currently undergoing emergency treatment. As for the Queen Mother who was imprisoned in the cage, she … she has also disappeared. "
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"What!"
The centaur patriarch shouted. His expression was very frightening. His eyes looked as if they could eat people, emitting an ominous glint. After roaring, he hurriedly rushed back, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
After hearing this news, Reina was also shocked. She didn't dare to believe that Bai Ling had actually escaped. How could Halla be injured by an assassin? It must be known that Bai Ling was imprisoned in a magical cage. That was her master Richard's magical cage. How could an ordinary person easily break the magic and escape?
Halla had been fine just a moment ago. Furthermore, she was in the most heavily guarded area of the Wusen Empire. How could something like this happen?
This was really bad news. Why did things get worse? Just as she was about to teleport back to her room, the leopardmen patriarch immediately grabbed her by the shoulder.
"Wait, human! I know what you want to do, but don't even think about it. From now on, you must be under our surveillance. Otherwise, don't even think of getting a single cent from us, even if you really are that lord's disciple. "
Reina turned around, frowning as she glared at the patriarch.
If she went back now, she might be able to find traces of Bai Ling's escape. If she left the Wusen Empire, then finding her would be troublesome.
Her mind was in a mess. But the worst thing was that she had only just realized that the Elven Queen had already left at some point. Could it be that she had done it? That shouldn't be possible. Kerri wouldn't do such a thing. Moreover, this would cause a war between the elves and the Wusen Empire.
Even though she was anxious, she could only slowly follow the clan leaders back. They rode in their carriages, hurrying back. The situation had long since spiraled out of control. Someone had leaked the news, and many people had learned of the matter before the clan leaders. They had all come out to the streets and the plaza. As for the administrative building of the Wussen Empire, it had long since become so packed that not even a drop of water could pass through.
The patriarchs had to rely on the soldiers to open a path for them to enter the building. As they passed through the crowd, Reina heard the rumors fermenting in the crowd. Some people even said that Halla had died. She was extremely worried about this.
"How is she?"
The building had been sealed off, and everyone was being investigated.
With great difficulty, she finally found the centaur patriarch. His face was gloomy, and it seemed that the situation was very serious. They had isolated Reina and made her wait for news in a room. This was equivalent to putting her under house arrest. Although she could understand their suspicions, Reina still felt uncomfortable in her heart. After all, she had been by their side this entire time. If she had wanted to do something like this, she wouldn't have needed to put on such an act.
In her gloomy state, she finally received news. The centaur patriarch personally came to her and said, "You can leave now. But at a time like this, we don't wish for you to run around."
"How is Halla?"
Reina asked worriedly.
The centaur patriarch didn't seem to want to answer. He said impatiently, "She was stabbed in the stomach. Her life isn't in danger, but it's not a small injury either."
Originally, she had planned to use her own healing magic to help Halla. But thinking about it, they wouldn't be at ease with her leaving Halla. Moreover, this was her master's kingdom. The healing magic here was definitely not inferior to hers. She hoped that she could recover quickly. Otherwise, things would only get worse.
What worried Reina the most was Bai Ling, the Queen Mother. Her situation was extremely dangerous. Where had she gone?
