Chapter 1140 62. Mirror in the Sky
The most urgent task is to find where the "Inverted Place" predicted is.
Annan thought that the descriptions of "mushrooms blooming, flowers bearing fruit, and vines growing in clusters" were eye-catching enough, but still no elf knew where this was...
"Evanas is not like this. place." Elder Seran said.
“It seems that there is another place that humans know but elves don’t know.”
The top priority is to find a Paem... The first thing Annan thought of was Prince Aidan. Asking him to help can also remove some suspicion.
But... Annan is not sure whether Prince Aidan will choose to cover up the murderer after knowing that he is from the Kingdom.
If it was just a problem with the royal court, Annan wouldn't mind asking Prince Aidan for help, but now that Irilanze is missing, he doesn't want to take any chances.
Annan said: "I have foreign aid, but I have to go back to the Messenger Village first."
"That human prince?"
"No, it's a 'friend' who just helped me."
The Rat King is not the Paem Rat, or even the Wilhelm Rat, but it has rats.
Although I don’t know why the Royal Court allows its rats to run around, but since he has so many informants...the Rat King should know something.
Now that they had the clue, the elves rushed to the Messenger Village non-stop.
Annan plays Kael'thas, following the team in the dark night without attracting attention. When passing by the residence of himself and Prince Aidan, Annan glanced away inadvertently.
It's very strange to see one's own residence from other people's perspective, especially when seeing Skeleton King looking over here.
It was like Cathy sneaked out of school and stood outside the street watching her classmates on the playground.
Because of its size, the Rat King lives in the largest wooden house in the Messenger Village.
It sat among the mountains of fruits, the mixed juice of the squashed fruits flowing under it, enjoying the service of the attendant mouse.
The elves were disgusted by this dirty and ugly scene, but Annan was the only one who remained indifferent.
"Rat King, thank you for helping me earlier." He said in rat language.
“It’s too stuffy here.” The Rat King’s grunt sounded like thunder in the barn-like room, “You have to find the murderer quickly.”
“I will... just in time. I need your help with something."
Annan directly told the Rat King: "Mushrooms are blooming, flowers are bearing fruit, and vines are growing... The elves don't know where this is. Do you have a clue?" br>
“Well...”
The Rat King pondered, not even opening his mouth as the Attendant Rat carried the fruit to his mouth.
"There is a place..." It opened its mouth and chewed the fruit beside its mouth, and the juice flowed across it. "The ground there is the sky, and there are clouds everywhere..."
"The mirror of the sky." Elder Selan endured his disgust, "There are mirror-like lakes and cloud-like mist, but there are no mushrooms blooming there. , the flowers bear fruit..."
"Indeed not, but things are the same, all in reverse."
Annan woke up suddenly and wanted to be called the Rat King.
The size of the Rat King is indeed not in vain...the bigger the size, the bigger the brain. The bigger the brain is, the smarter it is.
Although Annan's reasoning ogre had something to say, Elder Thran could not refute it.
Annan turned back and said: "Let's split up. You go and ask Prince Aidan pretendingly, I will take people to the Mirror of the Sky."
"I'll be with you."
"No. The attackers dare to arrogantly tease you with the warning, which shows that they are confident. Maybe we have been in their sight, and they will become suspicious when you disappear." Elder Selan nodded and said to the female elf: "Fiona, protect 'Kael'thas' with your life."
"I will." The female elf held onto the wooden bow.
“Let’s go through the back door.”
Annan said, and a four-person team consisting of Fiona, an elf captain and an elf mage came to the back door and used the power of nature to sneak away. Messenger Village, quickly rushed to the Sky Mirror.
The Green City is very big. After all, millions of elves live here. It is just because it is a real "forest city". The elves live in three-dimensional trees and there are very few elves on the streets.
The elf ranger named Fiona was responsible for planning the route, and she was also the most flexible and agile. When they arrived at the outskirts of the Green City, they confidently said that no elf discovered them along the way.
But at the edge of the Sky Mirror, the forest gradually thinned out, replaced by a tranquil lake in the distance.
Annan was sent to the dark night in the evening, and escaped dozens of minutes later. There were still several hours until midnight.
The starry sky outside the canopy of the World Tree falls unobstructed on the lake, and even the clouds are clearly reflected on it. Some deer and elves were playing and chasing on the lake, just like a fairyland.
The attacker's attempt to detonate the Sky Mirror was sheer evil...
Not to mention that the elves can't accept it, Annan doesn't want such a beautiful place to be destroyed.
Annan and the three elves explained: "The murderer usually stays near the crime scene. And the murderer who makes a warning will admire his masterpiece from close by. I will go to the lake to attract his attention in a while. , you try to find him...I will call someone to help you."
Destroying the Sky Mirror is a good idea, and what could be more exciting to the king than destroying the landscape of the Green City one after another. Where is the anger of the court?
But at the same time, this is also a trap set by the attackers.
The Sky Mirror has an unobstructed view all around. If you want to see the beautiful scene destroyed, you can only stay by the lake.
Annan activated one of the talismans, and the magic circle quickly emerged.
“What’s the matter?”
Mr. Swarovski, who was wearing a professor’s robe and holding a teaching stick in his hand, had no expression on his face.
"Are you still in class so late?" Annan was stunned.
"It's just evening in Liberty City." Mr. Swaro said.
After briefly regretting that he couldn't see Mr. Swarovski's nightgown, Annan quickly explained the situation: "I am now approaching the center of the lake to look for clues. You and they will observe anything approaching the lakeside during the observation period."
"I With you," Fiona said.
“No need.”
“Elder Selan asked me to protect you.” Fiona was very persistent.
“Okay.”
Annan agreed to her in Mr. Swaro's increasingly unfriendly eyes, and walked to the lake with Fiona.
The Sky Mirror has only a thin layer of lake water, with unknown light-colored crystals underneath.
Annan and Fiona walked on it, with the bright moon, starry sky and clouds under their feet, as if they were walking on clouds.
The deer in the distance looked curiously at the intruder. One of the deer was attracted by the natural breath. He walked over on the ripples and cupped Annan's chest, trying to find the branches of the ancient tree of wisdom. , was gently pushed away by Annan with a smile.
Fiona went over and asked the elf if there had been anyone acting suspiciously before.
They surrounded Annan and Fiona, making a sweet and crisp sound like wind chimes.
Annan couldn't understand, and Fiona couldn't understand either. The elf became more and more anxious. He took Annan's hand and led him towards the center of the lake.
