Chapter 1154 76. Action and Pursuit
“Aidan and his minions are hiding in those tree houses.”
The arrow in Annan’s mind points firmly to one of the tree houses. , Prince Aidan is among them, and has not moved.
"Do you have a way to capture Aidan without affecting nearby residents?" Annan asked.
The currently exposed abilities of Rudolph's Eye include magic ban and teleportation.
On the bright side, an artifact with more abilities will be harder to specialize in. Its attack and defense will not be too strong, but it can also cope with various situations.
Annan was worried that they would be noticed by the "Utopia" as soon as they started to evacuate.
The legendary elf mage wanted to say that this was very simple, but fell into silence as the ranger discovered a trace of anomaly.
Following the sense of danger, the legendary elf ranger stopped at a grassland that seemed to be unharmed, but was actually covered by grass. He opened the ground and discovered the magic scroll buried inside.
“More than one place,” she said.
The "Utopia" went so far as to bury a large number of magic scrolls around its stronghold.
"Can we prevent them from being detonated after the battle begins?" Annan asked the mage.
"Can't do it..."
The magic scroll is not affected by the forbidden magic. Either they evacuate everyone around them or eliminate the magic scrolls, or they can catch them all before the Utopia can react.
"Then evacuate the elven residents first."
They refilled the trap without touching the magic scroll. Who knows if Aidan will notice when they are moved.
It was noon, and there were many elves walking on the street. They did not need to evacuate for the time being, so they started from the outside - Annan and the others appeared outside a tree house and knocked on the door. The elf residents first confirmed by the legendary elf mage were not members of the Utopia in disguise.
"There is danger here. Please leave here first and be careful not to make any noise."
"My friends are still here..."
"Don't worry, it's nearby All the elves will be evacuated..."
When Annan led the team to knock on the doors one by one, on the other side, Prince Aidan woke up from his sleep.
The members of the Utopia were sleeping against the wall, and the "King" opened his eyes due to the movement.
"Continue to rest." Prince Aidan said, and the "King" nodded and fell asleep again.
Prince Aidan walked to the window of the tree house. The sun shines through the dense gaps in the leaves, casting variegated light and shadow, full of vitality
He stood in the shadow where the light could not reach, and his eyes suddenly focused slightly.
There were 30 to 40% fewer elves on the street than before, and no elves were seen in the nearby tree houses...
"This is wrong..."
Prince Aidan murmured, Call back and wake everyone up.
“Wake up, we are being targeted.”
Everyone in the Utopia woke up.
"The King" asked: "Your Highness, what should we do, evacuate first?"
"No...plan ahead, start taking action now!"
They did not reveal any clues, the elves It is impossible to find the royal court. And since they appear here...it means they have been exposed.
"Gardener."
"Your Highness." A middle-aged mage responded.
"You stay and hold them back."
The slightly stunned middle-aged mage put his hand on his chest: "Okay... for the ideal country."
Prince Aidan responded with courtesy. : "For the Utopia."
...
It took more than ten minutes to evacuate most of the nearby elven residents. Annan suddenly left a message and heard that the arrow suddenly shook.
Prince Aidan on the move?
He cast his gaze towards the specially marked giant tree. There was nothing unusual about the giant tree standing in the sun. Just when Annan was wondering if Prince Aidan had gone to the toilet, the arrow in his mind instantly slid and pointed to the west.
Why did Prince Aidan leave so suddenly...
Annan glanced at the empty streets in confusion...empty?
Annan, who realized what the problem was, exclaimed: "We've been discovered, let's do it!"
With no time to worry about the fact that there were still some magic scrolls that had not been eliminated, Annan asked the elf team to attack the giant tree immediately.
“You can’t escape!”
The legendary elf mage turned into a stream of light and flew straight towards the giant tree.
At this time, a figure walked out of the tree house.
Annan did not recognize him, but recognized him by his physical appearance as a member of mankind...the Utopia.
"Elves! This is the declaration of the kingdom!"
His shouts sounded in all directions with the amplification technique, and he stared feverishly at the legendary elf mage rushing towards him, " Enjoy the blood debt you have committed!”
The moment the “Gardener” activated the trap, an arrow shot over and nailed him to death in front of the tree house.
Then he took a step slower. After a brief silence, terrifying fire suddenly burst out from all around, and then, a deafening roar accompanied by turbulent air waves swept past like a violent wind and rain. Raging flames and thick smoke obscured the sky above.
Fortunately, Annan and the others eliminated most of the traps, but the rest still turned the surrounding area into a burning hell.
"Prince Aidan is not here, save people first!"
After a brief thought, Annan made a quick decision.
Amid the "crackling" sound of wood that resounded all around, there was also a howl of pain.
Seeing the members of the Utopia struggling in the flames, Annan shouted: "Save him, don't let him die!"
The legendary elf mage in front turned back in confusion, Annan explained: "He is from the Utopia, maybe he knows something else."
Legendary elf mage Alyana opened her red lips lightly and recited the ancient and Melodious, but not a chant of any kind of magic.
"In the name of the World Tree, let down the rain of life and extinguish this fire of innocence!"
Eliana raised her hands high, and the gentle light followed her call, from Landing on the top of the World Tree. The light containing the pure vitality of the World Tree spread out and fell like drizzle.
The raging flames were quickly annihilated the moment they came into contact with these lights, turning into curls of white smoke, and young shoots emerged from the charred soil.
The flames that were still raging disappeared in an instant. Annan looked at the legendary elf ranger who came back: "How is it?"
"The casualties should be about ten."
"We tried our best."< br>
They moved quickly enough, but casualties were inevitable.
The member of the Utopia was also rescued. He was seriously injured and almost turned into a charred corpse. Even with Ariana's reluctant treatment, he could only last a few more minutes.
The Elf Royal Court would definitely be reluctant to part with him and would not fill him with water from the Moon Pool. He was not worthy of doing so.
"What is your purpose?"
"Revenge!" The attackers, whose throats were choked by the smoke, roared.
"Revenge? Do you really care about the half-elves in Lost Village?"
"Of course..." The attacker grinned with difficulty, his face was chapped, and his voice became lower and lower. , "I'm waiting for you in hell...you..."
...
On the treetops in the distance, Prince Aidan stood quietly, watching them put out the fire and save people, and the gardener died.
He looked at the familiar shadow and whispered: "Annan...this will be the reason for your failure."
"If you want to taste the fruits of victory, don't be afraid of sacrifice. ..."
