Chapter 0208 Ruins in sight
Fifty years ago, Yinye City was destroyed by a demon from the abyss. The elves' remnants fled back to the city, and faced the remaining old and weak, they were no longer able to continue to resist. The elves' royal family died in battle one after another, and the underage little princess had to take on her own responsibilities.
"It's me, I ordered the retreat."
Under the ants' arms, Xili sat on the back of "Jiying" and hugged Zhou Qingfeng's waist. The huge team had arrived at the outskirts of Yinye City, and a huge stone covered with gray vines stood at the entrance of the basin.
"Did you see that big stone?" Xili whispered: "It was the statue of Corilon, which was very beautiful back then. There was a platform below. We fled back in a hurry after being defeated in the Blood Flowing Canyon. I cried under the statue, and everyone asked me what to do?
I was frightened at that time. My family was dead. How did I know what to do? Others said they were going to fight to the end. I cried and asked if I could stop fighting and escape."
As Xili said in a low voice, Zhou Qingfeng turned his head and looked at the tall stones on the side of the entrance to the basin. The stones were beyond recognition, covered with black vines, and there was no sign of the appearance of the god statue. It was just abrupt and made people feel strange.
The basin is the old nest of the Magru tribe, which is relatively cold wind blowing outside. The basin is relatively comfortable, and at least some buildings left by the elves did not sink underground, so the living conditions are naturally better than elsewhere.
As the huge ant colony enters the basin, a huge mound can be seen in front of you. Even if it is more than ten kilometers away, it is a unique landmark. It is an ancient elves disguised by high-level arcane magic and an entrance to the ruins.
Xili continued, "I later learned that everyone was actually scared by the terror of the demons, but no one dared to evacuate. When I said, "Can you not fight?", those who survived immediately agreed.
They actually sent me to the demon, saying that I am now the queen of Silver Leaf City and came to demand surrender. I was forced to dress up and kneel in front of a demon lord and burst into tears. I still remember that humiliation."
Speaking of this, Xili was already dumbfounded. There was no tears in her eyes, but her heart had already flowed into tears. The girl could only hug Zhou Qingfeng's waist tightly and sobbed: "Later, I was confused and was merciless like a puppet.
I lost the favor of the elves and gods, and when I returned to Silver Leaf City, I was scolded by other elves for being shameless. They locked me up in the dungeon outside the city and told me not to mention my surname again. Then they immersed the city into the underground and ran away."
Zhou Qingfeng was sad and sighed. The dead horse interrupted and said, "Xi Li, thank you for staying underground for fifty years. Otherwise, if I were trapped in the underground prison alone, I would have become a resentful spirit."
Sheilly continued: "The devils did not accept my surrender. They mocked me, teased me, humiliated me. Then they asked me to go back and wait for death, saying that I would taste the fear and resentment that was on the verge of death."
Zhou Qingfeng turned his head, carried his close maid from behind and comforted him softly: "Don't think too much, you still exist. Now you are my maid, you have to take good care of me. My food, clothing, housing and transportation depend on you."
In the miserable world, the master and servant were warming each other, but a sharp voice forced into their brains and deliberately mocked: "What a warm scene, but I hope you don't waste your thoughts too much on boring emotions. Otherwise you will die here."
The person who spoke was the queen who was surrounded and defended by countless worker ants and soldiers. It was not far from the master and servant, and eavesdropped on the words of the two people through the ant guards flying in the air.
Xili was enjoying the love of her master and was extremely angry at the words she inserted into. She glared fiercely at the ant pile where the ant queen was located, and sent a message through the 'holy light' and said, "Don't worry, as long as you enter the range of the ancient elf tree, it will be dead."
However, the queen of the ant did not go to the ancient elves in the distance, and asked to go to the cemetery. Zhou Qingfeng said that only by going to the ancient elves can we untie the curse of the gods endured by the acid-eating ants, but the queen of the ant refused without hesitation.
"Don't think of coaxing me, I know what's there in the ancient elves tree." The queen of the ant refused without hesitation. "The curse happened in the cemetery and should be resolved in the cemetery. If you can't do it, you can die now."
At no time, the ant colony forced everyone to go to the cemetery.
As the entire Yinye City buildings sink, a huge underground city was formed. The soil covered on the surface was formed by high-level arcane magic. You can dig more than ten meters of frozen soil down to enter the underground space. Digging holes happens to be the specialty of acidophile ants.
Just as everyone was at a loss, Fabro from Cold Wind City quietly approached Zhou Qingfeng and called on the "Holy Light" to launch a confidential communication. When Zhou Qingfeng received the message from the alchemy chief, he was so surprised.
"Everyone, I have a way to interfere with the spiritual connections of the ant colony and cause them to have a brief chaos. Maybe we can take the opportunity to escape," Fabrow said.
Zhou Qingfeng remained calm and replied secretly: "Hisser Fabro, I didn't expect you to call on the 'Holy Light'. I remember you made up several fake identities and tried to fool me."
Fabro said sarcastically without hesitation: "Hisser Hugo, if you want to quarrel, I can continue with you. Otherwise, I'd better hear me say a few words."
Based on the pre-existing impressions from the wizard apprentice Tambos, Zhou Qingfeng has no good impression of this alchemy chief. However, this talented and unvirtuous guy can actually produce a potion to restrain the curse of the gods, which shows that his knowledge and ability are still good.
"Tell me." Zhou Qingfeng replied.
Fabro said: "I am an alchemist and I usually like to make something special. After I left your Harmony Village, I thought about how to restrain my mind's superpowers. I made a magic item for this."
Wait, restrain the supernatural powers of the mind? Zhou Qingfeng heard a burst of fire, "What are you preparing specifically to restrain me?"
"This is normal. We were hostile before. Your 'holy light' is so scary. I have to think about this. But now it is just right to deal with the queen."
"Damn, what did you create?"
"A mind jammer, but it is just a crude product, and the distance it affects is very limited, only about twenty yards. It is still unreliable and can only work for a few seconds at most. This time is simply not enough to allow me to escape from the control of the ant colony."
"so what?"
"So we have to cooperate, and I believe you are definitely looking for a way to escape."
"Does that city lord know you have this thing?"
"He doesn't know, but he certainly won't refuse to escape together."
