In the Great Ufa Forest, the corpses of many soldiers lay on an unremarkable path. At the end of the path was a strange stone statue. The statue had two horns and countless arms on its back. There were many fresh flowers around it.
Carey and Farr had led a group of subordinates here. They were fully armed, each of them equipped with Dwarven equipment. There were even two steel behemoths following them.
"The core is here? A garden? Are you sure we didn't go to the wrong place? Anyone can come here, and there are so few guards. I'm suspicious of that disgusting guy. "
Carey put one hand on his waist and looked up at the ominous statue.
"Don't talk about our ally like that. At least before the deed is done, he has no reason to lie to us. We're all in the same boat. Look, this is their Demon King. He died at the hands of our ally. To them, this is their holy land," Farr replied.
He squatted on the ground and used one of his mechanical arms to pick up a white flower. There were many different kinds of flowers here, and they were all very fresh. The surroundings were very clean and tidy. It seemed like someone cleaned this place every day.
"Offering sacrifices to the Demon King's holy land. Hahaha, but it's still a holy land. If it weren't for that guy's death, we wouldn't have had a chance to take revenge. Do you remember when he ruled? Ptui! Now you're just a dead man. "
Carey spat at the statue, then stepped on the flowers and climbed up the statue. Perhaps he wanted to find some sort of mechanism, but he didn't find anything out of the ordinary. Apart from the highest authority and a few of the Demon King's trusted aides, no one knew where the core was. Even the clan leaders had never seen it. No one knew what kind of place it was.
At this moment, Farr noticed that a stone brick on the ground seemed a bit different. He immediately pushed aside the flower petals, only to see a few words carved on it.
Offering loyalty to the King of Wusen.
Farr frowned. Carey, seeing him so quiet, thought that he must have noticed something. Seeing him staring blankly at the stone brick, Carey couldn't help but laugh.
"Loyalty? Haha, it was this so-called loyalty that killed him. If he didn't trust those so-called loyal subordinates, then this world would have been his."
"Perhaps." Faur didn't deny it. He rubbed his chin and suddenly looked up. "Have you been here before?"
"Me?"
Carey was puzzled by his question.
"Of course not. Why am I here?"
Farr turned back with a smile and asked his brothers, "What about you guys?"
The latter all shook their heads. They had never been here before. This was only natural. They hated the demons to the core, so why would they come to this place to pay respects to the Demon King?
"That's right. We won't do that because we're rebels. People who oppose his rule will never come here. This is very clever. It's far more clever than hiding the core in any secret place. It's right in front of us, but we'll never notice it. "
"So you've found the answer?"
Farr was the smartest person here. He used to be a general's advisor, but unfortunately, he was captured by the demons.
"The answer is to do things that we would never do, such as this."
With that, Farr faced the statue of the Demon King and put on the gemstone pendant. He then bent his knees and knelt on the ground.
This action shocked everyone. Carey frowned. This was indeed something they would never do. She also didn't understand why he did it.
But soon, she understood.
The gemstone pendant on Farr's chest suddenly glowed. This was the light of magic, a light that normal people called miraculous.
The ground around them suddenly started to move, giving off rumbling sounds. The vigilant people immediately gathered together and saw the statue move. Countless arms appeared like illusions, scaring everyone so much that they immediately raised their weapons and pointed them at it.
But in the next second, the world spun. They felt like they were stepping on air, but in the next instant, they touched solid ground. Everyone's knees bent, and those with poor balance staggered a few steps.
When they came back to their senses, they realized that they were in another place. This place was surrounded by ancient tree roots. The roots neatly covered the ground, turning this place into a flat ground. Strangely, there was not a single blade of grass in the exposed area. However, the ground was emerald green, like jade.
This strange place was a circle, and they were in the center. Farr looked up and saw a giant tree that covered the sky. They were under the tree. The tree was far bigger than they had imagined. Just looking up at it made them feel unreal.
Suddenly, they heard the sound of bows being drawn. Everyone looked around vigilantly and saw slender figures appearing behind the shadows of the trees. When did they appear there?
Faur was shocked and shouted, "Oh no! We've been tricked! "
In the next instant, he slammed his arms on the ground, creating a wall of earth.
Hearing this, Kairi immediately picked up his weapon. A fierce battle was about to break out. A fierce rain of arrows flew in from all directions like a storm. These seemingly primitive weapons were enchanted with magic. As soon as they hit the ground, they immediately grew wriggling plants. They drilled out of the ground like poisonous snakes, and the steel bull behemoths were instantly entangled. The power of these plants was actually able to bend their steel bodies.
They counterattacked, but the enemy's position was unclear. And for some reason, the magic bullets they fired didn't have the same destructive power as before. After Kairi's cannon was fired, it weakened at a speed visible to the naked eye. Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Kairi shouted that he wanted to kill all the demons, but Farr held him back. If he rushed out now, he would only die under the enemy's attacks.
At that moment, a sacred voice entered their ears. Farr poked his head out and saw a beautiful woman wearing a vine crown and white silk clothes standing on a tree root. She was aiming a bow at them.
The elven queen!
Farr held his breath. He immediately knew where he was. This was the territory of the elves.
The elven queen released her hand, and the arrow lightly flew out. It was formless and traceless, transforming into scattered leaves. Farr felt a cool breeze brush against his face. He suddenly turned his head. The ground had actually split open. Sharp tree roots madly grew out, wantonly attacking with their sharp horns. In the blink of an eye, the roots pierced through the bodies of the people around him, stabbing them into the treetops.
They were instantly defeated. Only then did Farr realize that this place had been specially set up to welcome them. Since the dwarves knew so much about the various races of Wusen, why didn't he think that perhaps the enemy also knew a lot about the dwarven weapons?
"Farr, you have to live. Avenge me!"
Hearing this, Farr was shocked. He saw Kairi toss the teleportation device to him, then leap out.
