Chapter 2458 (2/2)
It was easy for us to get up, but there was a big hole in the ground, and the fool knew someone was coming up from below. So how to cover up the hole is a troublesome problem. The ground of elves city is not a brick road, but covered with a layer of green carpet like grass. This kind of grass is very low and soft. It can play a carpet effect on the ground. Moreover, the grass is not afraid of trampling. Even if someone tramples on it every day, it will not die. However, although not afraid to step on, but the growth rate of this turf is very slow, at least compared with ordinary grass. This result makes it impossible for us to seal the hole in a short time. After all, even if we use soil to fill in the hole, we can't copy the turf on it. If it is simply filled with soil, it is just like leaving a white cement block on the black asphalt pavement, which is very conspicuous. Therefore, the camouflage of the entrance is a big problem.After thinking about it for a long time, I still think it is impossible to disguise the hole as completely invisible. It would have been possible if emmetz were still with me, but the problem is that emmetz is not here now, so I have to find another way.
If you can't fill it back, cover it with something else to make it less conspicuous, or at least make sure that no one else will notice that there is a big hole underneath. At the thought of this method, I suddenly had another way.
After thinking of a way, I did not hesitate, and quickly came out of the ground with Elvis. After that, Elvis will surely leave this hole on the ground. However, I have long thought of a solution to this problem.
”Little Dragon Girl, now turn your spell upside down.” I said, pointing to the sky.
”Upside down?” Little dragon and Elvis don't quite understand what I mean.
I explained: ”before you resisted the natural rain and turned the heavy rain into drizzle. Now you turn the spell upside down. Don't stop it from raining, but help it rain in turn. Let it rain more, and the bigger the better. ”
”Oh, I see. Master, do you want to cover the hole in the ground with rain water
”Right.”
Now Elvis understood. When a city is hit by a rainstorm, the water on the ground must be too late to send out. As long as the rain is big enough, local floods can be formed on the ground. After that, once the ground is flooded, who can notice that there is no grass on the ground below?
The little dragon girl who understood that immediately began to reverse the weather. It was supposed to be a rainstorm in this place. As a result, with the help of XiaoLongNu, the rain suddenly increased after a little while. Before, when we were outside the city, it was only raining heavily, but now it has become a waterfall. There was a rumbling noise all around. Five meters ahead, only a curtain of rain could be seen, and nothing else could be seen. It took less than five minutes for the water on the ground to accumulate a thin layer. Although the large hole on the ground can not be covered temporarily, the water surface is rising slowly. As long as the rainfall does not drop, the ground will soon disappear.
After confirming that the place was no longer a problem, I immediately asked Elvis to direct me to the secret library of the royal court. As for little dragon girl, I arranged to find a hiding place in this place. In order to maintain the rainstorm, XiaoLongNu can't return to Fenglong space now. She has to stay outside to control the weather. However, XiaoLongNu is a dragon, not a snake, and she is not good at penetration. Therefore, it is better to let her hide here with her. The probability of being found is much lower. As for the issue of combat effectiveness, there is no need to worry about it. There is no lack of combat effectiveness around me, and this mission seems to require auxiliary capabilities rather than combat effectiveness.
The terrible rainstorm not only helped us to cover up the big hole in the ground, but also played a very good role in shielding. It's midnight now. It's very dark. In addition to the rainstorm, even my perfect dark vision has only five meters of visibility. Now Elvis can only find his way by my description, and I have to lead him to walk, because his vision range is only one meter around him. If I don't pull him, it's not surprising that he bumps his head into some big tree on the road.
Thanks to the shelter of the storm, no one could be seen on the road. Originally, elves are not nocturnal animals. Now it's raining so hard that no one comes out. Even the patrol guards had to suspend their patrol because of the terrible rainfall. Although this will create a defense gap, they can't walk in such a heavy rain. Even if outsiders can enter the city, it is estimated that they will not be able to walk. Therefore, the guards naturally give up their intention to continue patrolling.
”Where are we now?” After meeting a huge group of buildings, I stopped to ask Elvis.
There is a big difference between the city and the city. Besides the buildings made of plants, there are also many stone buildings, and there are a lot of them. Of course, because of the obsessive-compulsive perfectionism of the elves, the buildings here are equally beautiful, whether they are plant-based or completely man-made. This kind of beauty does not mean how gorgeous, but the overall feeling is very harmonious. The elves are all masters of horticulture, and the king of elves is a group of buildings mainly composed of plants, so we can imagine what the buildings here will look like. You don't feel like you're in the city, you're visiting the world horticultural exposition.
After hearing my question, Elvis asked me, ”what's going on around here? Can you see a statue of a female spirit? ”
”There's a human figure over there, but I can't see it clearly. Let's go over there and have a look.” I took Elvis forward a few meters before I could see clearly that there was a sculpture five meters away. This is a Female Elf holding a small bottle in her hands to catch a drop of dew from a leaf. Because of the heavy rain now, I can only see a general picture, but I can't see the details clearly. ”Elvis, it's like a female Genie picking up dew. Is this what you mean by sculpture?”Elvis nodded: ”this is the beautiful vissy, a very famous sculpture. I have seen it before. It's very beautiful. It's definitely a classic work of sculpture art. Her position was to go to the dividing point inside the royal court. From here, you can turn left to get to the abandoned World Tree passage
”Abandoned passage?”
”Yes.” Elvis replied, ”the world tree occasionally degenerates briefly during its growth, and then some of its internal channels become narrower. Although this situation is rare, it occasionally occurs in some channels. This passage here is a channel that has suddenly shrunk for unknown reasons. Now it has become very short and can only be crawled over. Therefore, this passage has been abandoned, but we can make use of it. ”
I nodded and said, ”then let's get there quickly?”
”Well, you go to the left now. It's better to walk on both sides of the street, because several new houses have been built near the abandoned passageway, which has been blocked behind. If you miss the fork in the road, it's hard to find it. ”
”The houses in this place are all the same. How can I know which branch road you are talking about?”
”I can work out the approximate distance. I'll remind you when I'm near. The new house should be slightly different from the old house in the past. Just look for it carefully
”I'm sure there will be a difference between them, but do you think I can see it under the rain?”
What I said stunned avisco. Indeed, to see what the style of housing, there must be a comprehensive concept to distinguish it? Now the visibility is only five meters, and within five meters is vague, how to find?
”Well, then.” ”I'll let you know when I feel like I'm almost in position, and then we'll just go in and have a look at the alley. I don't think the error will be too big based on my sense of direction.”
I'm quite comfortable with Elvis's sense of direction. Elves are known as the son of the forest, in the forest as in their own home. Most people will get lost after entering the forest, but the Elves will not. Although there are some factors that they know about trees, they still benefit from the spirit's sense of precise direction. If you pay attention to the observation, you will find that the elves can't communicate with the trees to ask for directions when they walk in the forest. Although they do have this ability, they don't need this ability for the elves. As long as it is not the first time to enter the forest, the elves can accurately find the right path in it. Since you can sense the exact direction and distance, why bother to communicate with trees?
According to Elvis's instructions, I started to take him to the left, of course, along the way I followed his instructions and moved to the roadside buildings. After walking for a while, Elvis suddenly stopped me and said, ”stop, I feel that it's time to get to the entrance of the alley if there's a little more way. But in order to prevent missing, we'll start to look for it by the wall now. If there's an alley, we'll go in and have a look
”All right, keep up with me.”
Elvis nodded, thought about it and said, ”well, can you contact your beloved little dragon girl now?”
”What are you doing?” I looked at Elvis suspiciously and asked.
Instead of answering my question, Elvis pointed to his feet. As soon as I looked down, I saw knee deep water and understood what Elvis meant. Although XiaoLongNu and I said before that the bigger the rain, the better, but now it seems that it is too much. It's just a little longer? The water on the road is already over the knee. If it goes on like this for another hour or two, the Elves will be Atlantis. Although South America has abundant rainfall, the heavy rain is still too exaggerated. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, I quickly contacted Xiao Longnu with my heart contact.
”Master, what's the matter? Is there not enough rainfall? I can also double the rainfall. I'm afraid that the rain is too heavy for you to walk, so I don't dare to put it that much. You don't know, it's very simple to spread clouds and rain in this place. Only half of your normal mana can generate several times the rainfall. You need more rain now, don't you? ”
As soon as the communication was opened, I was startled by XiaoLongNu's words, and quickly explained: ”don't, don't, don't. I don't think the rainfall is small, it's too big. ”
”Ah? Too big? ”
”Yes, you should quickly reduce the rainfall, first let the water level drop by half, and then keep the water level. You don't have to keep the water going up. I'm going to steal through the storm, not to flood the ELF KING! ”
”Oh, yes! I'll adjust it. ”
”Well, after you adjust it, just keep the water depth and don't let it go down.”
”Yes.”
As soon as XiaoLongNu's communication ended, the rain began to drop a lot. The feeling of a waterfall before suddenly turned into a normal state of moderate to heavy rain. Although this rainfall is not small, but at least it is much better than just now.
Because of the fall in rainfall, our view suddenly widened. Elvis is is now barely able to see a few meters away, and I basically have 50 meters of vision. With this line of sight, action is basically unaffected.For creatures used to seeing with their eyes, it's really painful not to see. Now, as soon as he regained sight, Elvis found the lane. Before he asked me to stop the position is very accurate, the lane is actually less than 10 meters away from our left front. It can walk a long street with almost no sight, and can control the accuracy within 10 meters, which means that the spirit can do it. It has to be said that the spatial positioning ability of elves is too developed. Maybe their excellent archery has a lot to do with this ability.
This lane is just a crack between two buildings. We have to lean to get in. Fortunately, the passage was not long, and soon we entered the back of the house. This side is surrounded by a small square area by the back wall of several buildings. A withered vine with a diameter of more than four meters stretched out from the ground and grew up to seven or eight meters. This rattan is actually a root of the tree of life, but it is now withered. There are many roots on the tree of life. In fact, they do not affect the health of the tree of life itself. On the contrary, such withering can also help the tree of life adjust its branch structure and re fix the soil, which is good for the growth of the tree of life.
Originally, because the tree of life is alive and can communicate with the elves to a certain extent, the channels in the normal tree of life are flush with the ground, and stairs grow inside to facilitate climbing. But it's a withered vine, so there's a problem. The narrow passage is only one of the problems. Another problem is that the entrance of the cane is no longer on the ground, but has become a hole more than two meters high from the ground. Fortunately, this height is not too high, I directly put avesto up, and I followed myself into it.
In fact, the vine is not as narrow as Elvis said. Although it is not spacious, it is not enough to affect the action. After entering the rattan, we went all the way down, and soon the cane turned to the horizontal direction. At this time, we could not stand upright. We had to lie down and crawl. Of course, we could go through squatting, but it was too hard.
After a bit of fear ahead, we got out of the withered abandoned passage and entered a section of the main passage. The elves come here from time to time, but we don't need to go through this passage. Our goal is a branch on the wall opposite the passage.
We both quickly got through while there was no one. The branch road here is the connecting channel between the two main channels. There are many such channels between the root channels under the tree of life. They connect the root system of the tree of life into a huge three-dimensional network structure, which can not only hold the land firmly, but also make the internal channels extend in all directions. Of course, this kind of advantage is only for the elves. With the ability of human spatial positioning, people will get lost if they don't go far in such places, and then they will be dizzy in the maze like huge channel network.
Although there are many elves in this huge underground passage, because it is early in the morning, few people can be seen except the patrol guards. The way we deal with guards is very simple: stand up against the wall and cover both of us with my phantom cloak. There is no light in the underpass. The guards are patrolling with their own lights, so as long as we keep still, we can achieve perfect stealth effect, and the guards can't find us at all.
Using this method, we dodged the patrol teams passing by one after another, and then easily arrived at a relatively narrow passage. This narrow passage must be a branch, so there is no patrol. But at the end of the road we met two guards.
Far away from the two guards, Elvis told me that behind the two guards is a passage to the ground. After going up there is the back garden of Wangting. If you go up from here, you'll be in the restricted area, but now I need to deal with the two guards. After all, Elvis is mainly responsible for leading the way, I am the main force.
Standing in the curve that the guards can't see, I carefully send a ghost insect to climb slowly along the top of the passage. This is to establish the vision first. The next step is formal action. Elvis stares at me curiously, trying to see how I managed to take care of the guards without hurting people.
”Princess. It's up to you. ”
For my sudden call out of the magic pet Elvis is is no wonder, but he is still very confused, I make such a delicate girl out to do. The princess is not only a human form, but also looks like a doll. The most important thing is that she was wearing a princess dress and holding a small parasol in her hand. She didn't look like she could fight.
Just as Elvis was wondering what I was going to do with the guards, the princess suddenly narrowed her eyes, rubbed her eyes with one hand, and then walked out of the corner sobbing. By the time Elvis found out her movements were too late to stop them. Don't let the guard's attention go out, let alone the sound from the guard.
However, just when Elvis panicked and thought we were going to be exposed, two elves' voices came from the opposite side. What's the matter with you, little sister? Why is a man crying hereWhen the princess heard the voice, she slowly put down the hand that rubbed her eyes. Then she looked up at the two elves and said, ”I'm lost. Can two big brothers help me
Hearing this, the two elves immediately replied, ”it's our pleasure to serve you.”
The princess with tears on her face suddenly showed a smile and then said to the two guards, ”thank you, big brother. Can you play hide and seek with me? I'll hide. You'll find it
”OK.” Hearing this, the two elves immediately turned to lie down on the wall of the passage, and then began to count with closed eyes. At this time, I pulled Elvis to run out quickly from the two elves facing the wall, while the two guys were still counting and did not notice that anyone was passing by.
Seeing that we had passed, the princess immediately ran to them, and then, before reaching the steps of the passage, she still called to them: ”two brothers, I suddenly think that I should go home. Otherwise, my mother should be in a hurry, and now I can't play games with you. Today, I was sneaking out. This is a secret. You can't tell anyone else. ”
”Don't worry, we won't say it.” The two elves are obedient, and the princess has followed us to the ground.
Elvis didn't see anything, but the conversation was all heard. After seeing the princess come out, he was surprised to see the princess look up and down a few times, and finally looked at me and said, ”I have to say that if you become a spy, I'm afraid there is no secret to hide!” (to be continued.
