Chapter 417: Puzzled
"Then do you know all of them? Are there any elves who shouldn't be members of the Shenmu Guard?"
After receiving the water mirror technique screen shown by Lin, Liena recognized the faces one by one and said, "These people are all members of the Shenmu Guard. It's just that they haven't returned to the city since joining the guard, so they are young People will be very strange to him."
"Is there the elder druid you mentioned, and the transcendent other than Ronan?"
"no, what happened?"
"Have you heard that the three druid elders, or the extraordinary people other than Ronan, went to pay homage to your king?"
"No..." Riena replied quickly. But as soon as the answer came out, even she herself felt something was wrong.
"I don't know the duty rules of your Shenmu Guards, so I'm just asking casually, and you can answer according to the situation. Assuming that World Tree is their residence, can they leave freely?"
"No, in essence, they are an army. Unless there is a mission, how can they leave at will. And become a member of the Shenmu Guard, this is their home, they are brothers and sisters, and the original The family has nothing to do with it anymore. Their only mission is to protect His Majesty Lahti."
Hearing this, some of Lin's doubts became clear. The wood elves' godwood guards don't have so many rules, but they do, and the reason behind it is of course worth pondering.
Because of Harumi's relationship, Lin also has some understanding of the precepts of the wood elves. The general wood elves and their godwood guards have the same precepts to abide by. The purpose of all precepts is actually to restrain one's own behavior.
The reason for restraining themselves is because the wood elves have entered into a soul contract with the world tree since they were born, that is, the two parties have a certain degree of deep connection, so the behavior of one party will inevitably affect the other party.
Just like for human beings, behaviors such as indulgence, overeating, staying up late, etc. will affect the health of the body. For the World Tree, of course, there are some behaviors that are not suitable for plants, and this has become a precept for its contracting parties.
After all, the soul has established a connection with the boss. When someone makes that boss feel uncomfortable physically and mentally, how can that one make the other party too comfortable. Over time, this has become a "don't do" thing among the people, which is the origin of the precepts.
But these precepts, however restrictive, do not restrict human relationships. Just like the members of the Wood Elf's Shenmu Guard, they can become husband and wife with others, have children, and even travel abroad.
And when an organization starts to restrict the actions of its members no matter what reason it uses, there must be some kind of purpose behind it. Possibly lofty and sacred goals, but more likely ulterior ones. However, when an organization within a kingdom ignores the royal power and says that there is no ghost behind it, then it is really a waste of reading works about various conspiracy theories for so many years.
In particular, a few sprites were missing, which worried someone in particular. The three elder druids of the kingdom of Pyatjaime, the supernatural beings, also walked through the era of the Lich King's Landing. In other words, they are witnesses to the destruction of the elf kingdom once.
For a long time, Lin was willing to take that lich around because her era was too far away. Even if they have done some horrific things, neither the parties nor the victims will come forward to complain. But someone is also very clear that it is not surprising that there are people who have experienced that era in this magical world.
But... it shouldn't be such a coincidence. That kind of person can't be bad on the street, you can meet them everywhere.
And then here are three…
Before coming to the site of the World Tree, of course someone first got the list of those "people who cannot be provoked" from Liena Titov. After learning about the three druid elders, Lin was still a little worried that when they saw the Lich beside them, a catastrophe would erupt like a comet hitting the earth.
Fortunately, the worst thing did not happen, and the three druid elders were not even seen. At first, I thought that the elves had already communicated with the three old antiques first, so that they could see what they didn't see. The two sides took what they needed, and when the matter was settled, they would divide their things, maintaining a false peaceful situation.
But now it seems that it is not the same thing at all. The reason why the other party didn't show up was probably because there was a conspiracy behind it.
"In short, if you have free time these days, go to your king and run a few more missions. Don't let that sentimental young man feel lonely and lonely. Of course, don't leave your body easily, such as weapons."
This elven sword dancer is not a little girl who has never seen the world. How could she not understand the hints of this human magician. So Liena Titov changed her worried expression and asked, "Do you have any clearer evidence for these things?"
"If there is clear evidence, I would have ignored the things here, and ran away first. Will I still talk to you here?"
At this time, Fern comforted her female companion and said: "You have to believe that he is this kind of person. It doesn't look right, he can run faster than anyone else." But at this time, the Lich showed that someone had never seen With a smile, he said, "Then what are we going to do? Let's act first and catch them off guard."
"My lord sister, maybe I just misunderstood, don't mess around."
Fern smacked her mouth with a dissatisfied and disappointed expression. Lin ignored this lich who was afraid of chaos, and explained to other people: "Girl, you also have to be ready at any time, just like the standard of camping adventures. Even if you don't need to be fully armed, you should have You must bring your little things with you, and you must be vigilant. This place is no different than in the Tower of the Great Sage, and it is far from an environment where you can relax your vigilance. There are also carriages and things that must be ready to leave at any time When the situation is urgent, I will not waste time packing things. Do you hear me?"
Because the tone was a bit harsh, the two girls nodded seriously. Halloumi thought of another group of people and asked, "Should I tell Jermaine these things?"
"Speaking to that big mouth is no different from making it public to the world. Let's keep it a secret from them first, so as not to over-irritate the other party. Maybe we didn't have this idea at the beginning, and we will be forced to do it." After thinking about it , Lin said again: "They are very powerful after all, so it's not good for them to be completely unprepared. Riena, can I ask you one thing?"
"Say."
"Try to get the elves on your side to ask the silver-bearded dwarves to learn martial arts with the peaceful armed forces. The elves should also be interested in the strength of the silver-bearded dwarves' peaceful armed forces. From the time I took them away from the dwarves Since the city, no one has made such a request. So I think Jermaine and the others have little chance of refusing, because they are also curious about the level of strength of the Peaceful Armed Forces in the outside world. The point is to keep as much as possible for them to have one person equipped with Peaceful Armed, otherwise the dwarves would take too long to equip and would not be able to cope with a surprise attack."
"I remember that armor, can't I move by myself?"
Asked by the female elf. Lin didn't intend to help the dwarf save face, and said directly: "Automated programs can only be used to do some simple work, or simply walk. If you want to fight, it's still far away. Don't count on this." Or you can only rely on you to figure out a way to thread the needle through it, so that those innocent little guys will obey obediently."
Liena had no reason to refuse the human magician's request. What's more, such a request is also a good reason for the elves to maintain their weapons. In order to despise martial arts with the silver-bearded dwarves in the energy field at any time, it is reasonable for everyone to keep their equipment close to their bodies.
"Then what are you going to do?" Fern asked someone.
"Me? I'm going to try to find the missing godwood guards. I have a feeling they haven't left. I also asked Lahti about the whereabouts of these elves, but he doesn't know. So I guess even in In the scope of the World Tree, there are still blind spots that he cannot observe."
"What about me?" Fern asked, a little less interested, because she had guessed the possible answer, but still asked.
Lin didn't think too much about the Lich's arrangement, because he didn't think he could command the Lich. But since the other party asked first, Lin still thought about it seriously for a while, and said, "If possible, I hope you can stay in an obvious place, but don't show your face easily."
As soon as Fen heard this, she knew what someone was up to, and said, "This is to use me as a bait to attract other people's attention~www.readwn.com~ Yes. There is such a plan, but will the other party know?" Act according to our wishes, this is unknown. By the way, try not to touch the young king with your words."
"Afraid to give them an excuse?"
"That's right, but I also hope it's just my overthinking. But before finding out everything, it won't hurt to find a way to stabilize the other party."
As if agreeing with someone's reasons, Fern pouted noncommittally. The female elf sitting beside her seemed to have made up her mind, and said, "Can I tell Mr. Stache about these things?"
"The Secretary of State for War? He's open to speculation, all kinds of 'I think'?"
"Maybe that lord is not quite right with my old man, but he can still be trusted. Moreover, the attitude of the Shenmu guards is different from what I have seen before. I don't believe that lord is completely unaware. Let me explain. Attitude, let that adult know what other people think, it shouldn't be a bad thing."
After pondering for a moment, Lin said: "Basically I agree, but it's good to say these words out of your mouth, so you don't need to talk about our side. It doesn't sound like I, an outsider, is sowing discord, which is very annoying. It is easy to blur the original focus."
"Understood. Then I'll leave first." Liena Titov bounced up nimbly, and then walked out as if nothing had happened. Lin took the opportunity to clean up some of the remaining noodles in the pot.
Looking at the leftovers in the pot, someone thought of a comforting thought. Maybe the other party just simply doesn't welcome us, so maybe it's okay to see off guests in this way.
I just hope that all my worries are unnecessary.
