Chapter 870 (1/2)
At midnight, the moon dome.
In the long room of the morning star forest and dancers, Luca, sitting on his bed, looked up at the moonlight overhead, as if waiting for something.
The fatigue brought by the long wait made the blood in the pupil of the elf, and increasingly doubted whether it was necessary to continue to wait.
”Bang --!”
Just as Luca was about to give up, an elf guard suddenly knocked open the door of the long house, rushed in in panic, and woke up all the war dancers in the house.
”Lord Luca, and all of you in the morning star forest... No! I just...”
”Calm down, don't panic.” Luca, who was clear in his heart, first pressed the war dancers on both sides, and then gently looked at the guard: ”slowly tell me what happened?”
”A guard was knocked unconscious and left in the woods outside the fog moon court, which was found by the war dancers on patrol!” the young ELF's face was still pale and did not get any better:
”Not only that, when I just came from under the cloud canopy tree, I found a shoe print at the entrance - that style is definitely not an elf!”
”What?!” Luka, a gentle and honest man, immediately showed an ”extremely surprised” look: ”do you mean that some foreigners have mixed into the fog moon court, and they are probably on the cloud canopy tree
The pale guard looked at him and nodded excitedly.
”No matter what the other party wants to do, it should still be on the cloud canopy tree. We should mobilize all the war dancers in the fog moon court to surround and attack this guy!” the guard's face was silent:
”Your morning star forest is the group of dancers closest to the cloud canopy tree, so I'll inform you first, and then I'll inform others!”
”Wait!” Luca, who suddenly noticed something, quickly reached out and stopped him: ”you mean... We were the first ones you notified?”
”Yes!”
”Who knows but us?”
”No, I'm afraid there are too many news, which is easy to scare the snake.” the young elf replied honestly.
Luca breathed a sigh of relief and glanced subconsciously at the cloud canopy tree in the distance.
”You did a good job, very good.” Luca looked at the young elf calmly and patted him on the shoulder: ”in this way, don't inform the war dancers in other settlements, let the guards immediately block the periphery of the fog moon court.”
”But...”
”This is a foreigner. No matter what he wants to do in the fog moon court, he can't stay in the settlement; he must run, so we must block the settlement as soon as possible so that he can't leave!” Luca said:
”Our war dancers in the morning star forest will encircle him, and the rest of the guards will be sealed off outside - make sure everything is safe!”
”OK, I'll go now!”
The latter nodded hard and looked at Luca gratefully: ”sorry, I was sorry for you when you came; I told the elders of the fog moon court that the eastern cell families that resist the invasion of Ogres can never be traitors...”
”Go!”
Luca waved and interrupted the word he wanted to say.
The young elf nodded again, and then turned away solemnly.
”Luca, we really want to...”
As soon as a war dancer came forward, Luca raised his hand and stopped him; The middle-aged elf carefully closed the door, then turned and looked at the war dancers behind him: ”everyone take your weapons and be fully prepared.”
”Be careful tonight!”

Folding shadow sword?
Loren, with a slight frown, chewed the word he had just heard and stared at the blade in the hands of the Azores.
what do you mean?
Is it something like... Some kind of ability related to shadow?
Loren tried to recall every fragment of that moment. The fragmented memory turned into a frame by frame picture in his mind, showing all the details in front of him without reservation.
Meade... At the moment when his long knife stabbed out... The shadow of the blade seemed to
... gone?
”What the hell is going on... Right?”
Meade, who looked gentle, swam away with his sword, smiled and said to himself, ”maybe if I continue to entangle with the Azores, I can see through the mystery of the samurai way, which is completely different from the 'wizard school'.”
The dark haired wizard pulled the corners of his mouth and ignored him this time.
”There is a saying that the unknown is the greatest fear... But fear will also arouse uncontrollable curiosity and thirst for knowledge.” the Azores looked into Loren's eyes and turned their mouth slightly:
”Sir Edward, your eyes tell me that you have actually seen through part of my little trick, and... Want to know more.”
He didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack, but strolled around Loren, and was interested in continuing his ”self talk”:
”This is a very dangerous idea, because excessive curiosity will make people lose the vigilance brought by fear and fall into a more dangerous situation - just like now.”
The next second, Meade grasped the long knife in his right hand, crossed behind him, and attacked again without warning.
White light!
”Dang --!”
Loren instinctively slipped back, the gray blue sword could parry, waved a knife to the neck, turned defense into attack, and ”bright silver” stabbed the Azores straight in the face.
The smiling Meade also did not dodge. His left hand was against the end of the handle and stabbed at the black haired wizard's neck.
The moonlight outside the window reflected on them at the same time.
Very ”tacit understanding” they both chose to use this indomitable move. They had no other choice but to take each other's lives!
Only by stabbing the other one first can we escape in time... The end of escape is to be beaten passively and slaughtered by others.
The victory or defeat is only on the sword
”Poof --!”
The bright long knife rubbed the black haired wizard's left shoulder. The refined steel shoulder armor forged by the dwarf of silver helmet mountain was broken like a piece of paper.
The next moment, Loren, who had no time to dodge, was held against his neck by the blade, and the ”bright silver” sword disappeared immediately.
The completely subdued black haired wizard stared into the eyes of the Azores with an expressionless face.
But the successful middleman had an iron blue face. There was no trace of joy in his expression. Even his right hand trembled slightly and nearly cut Loren's throat.
”Sure enough... You're still hiding.” Meade was completely free. His eyes widened, and then he was cold:
”Sir Edward, can you tell me how you see through it?”
The expressionless black haired wizard raised his eyebrows and glanced at the shadow behind Meade.
”Moonlight?”
