167 Celia’s Life Experience
"Are you...going to save that human girl?"
At this moment, a young voice suddenly sounded.
The three of them immediately looked towards the sound, and saw a thin figure carefully emerging from the pile of rocks behind a certain big tree. The figure was less than one meter tall, with a strange yellow skin and pointed ears. Yeah, it doesn't look like a human being.
"Goblin?" Asuna was stunned.
"Yes, my name is Toby, and I am a Goblin." The little Goblin named Toby stood beside the pile of rocks, looking a little scared and cautious, but he still mustered up the courage to ask, "Are you taking risks?" Home? Are you here to save that human girl?"
Tang Hao asked: "How much do you know about that human girl?"
"I don't know very well, but I know where she went." Toby spread out his hand with a beautiful bracelet. "This morning, when I was adventuring in the jungle, I saw the human girl. She seemed There was something important, and I looked a little panicked. I like taking risks, so I followed her quietly. Suddenly, a huge tauren ran out, and the human girl exclaimed "Sauta", and then It was kidnapped by a minotaur, and this bracelet was dropped during the kidnapping."
"You mean, she entered the Grand Forest on her own initiative?"
"Um?"
"Did she struggle when she was kidnapped by the minotaur?"
"It seems not." Toby recalled for a moment, and then made gestures, "But that is Sauta. Sauta, the guardian of the Grand Forest, is the invincible beast king to us goblins. , even if the human girl wants to struggle, there is nothing she can do."
Toby took it for granted, but Tang Hao had an extra thought.
In the description of Toby, the little goblin, Celia was just an ordinary human girl, completely powerless to resist Sauta, but Tang Hao knew very well that Celia's life experience was not only not simple, but even It can be said that he is the most mysterious person in the entire Arad continent.
A long time ago, almost five hundred years ago, Celia came to this world as an elf. Not only did she possess the memory of the ancient elves, but she even had power that even the elves could not understand. Therefore, she had a high status, roughly equivalent to The saint of the elves is like this.
Since then, Celia has been living in the Grand Forest with her tribe, maintaining the large magic circle, and the Tauren King Sauta is the guardian of the Grand Forest, on the physical level, so strictly speaking, Sauta actually They are the subordinates of the elves.
It wasn't until a long time later that a fire burned down the Grand Forest and destroyed the great magic circle. If the great magic circle was completely destroyed, the entire continent of Arad would face catastrophe. Therefore, the elves, including Celia, sacrificed their lives to finally protect the magic circle.
Since then, the ancient elves have been completely wiped out, but perhaps because of the mysterious power that even the elves cannot understand, only Celia miraculously survived, but she was no longer an elf, she survived completely She lost her elf power, memory, and physical characteristics, and turned into an ordinary human girl, the Celia that players are familiar with.
It was also from that time that Celia changed her profession and became an online scammer. Over the past ten years, she has worked hard and emptied the wallets of countless adventurers with her cute appearance, sweet voice and gentle smile.
Okay, that's off topic.
In short, with Celia's status, even if she loses her memory and strength, Sauta cannot forget her. This tauren has always guarded the Grand Forest conscientiously in Tang Hao's memory. Even if he is crazy, he has not forgotten his mission, so how could he suddenly capture Celia... At least he will never capture Celia just to let Celia give birth to a child for him, as he said.
Maybe there's an inside story to this.
Dabendan: Kaguya, do you know what’s going on?
Tang Hao immediately asked in the chat room. Since Kaguya has read the plot of the new version of DNF, he should know the inside story.
"Of course I know, but..." Kaguya said with a smile through the voice channel, "You are taking an adventure. Do you know what adventure is? It is the exploration of the unknown. If you know the plot in advance, then there are What do you mean? It would be more interesting to explore it step by step, right?"
Wow!
What kind of bad taste does this guy have?
Tang Hao was speechless for a moment, and even Kirito and Asuna were dumbfounded.
But if you think about it carefully, Kaguya's words are not completely unreasonable. Especially Tang Hao, who has always acted from God's perspective. It may be a good experience to change the perspective this time, and he just doesn't understand the plot very well. That’s all, but there’s no need for him to follow the plot!
When I used to play games, I could only act according to the scripts written by the game writers. I would either be ordered around by this or that person, or I would be annoyed by the Imperial Army at every turn. It would be as unpleasant as possible, and even in the end, the player’s All actions are under the control of Held. He is simply Held's puppet. She is used as a knife to kill this apostle and fuck that apostle.
And now that he is free, why should he follow the script?
Now that he is a free man, he must play his own game as he pleases. One day, Held will show his blood bar and blast Held's ***!
Of course, with his current strength, even if Held really showed his blood bar, there was nothing he could do, so he retracted his thoughts and refocused his attention on the task of saving Celia.
He looked at Toby and asked, "What happens next?"
"I ran away after that and wanted to go to a human village to report the news. I met the three adventurers on the way..." Toby pointed to the three corpses in the distance that had been eaten by the cat monster and changed beyond recognition, with a sad look on his face. , "These three adventurers originally planned to challenge the Tauren King Sauta, so I told them about the human girl, and they quickly agreed. As a result, they were attacked by the Poisonous Cat King just after they got here. , I barely escaped because I hid beforehand, but they..."
Tang Hao walked to the three corpses. The bloody scene in front of him made even him feel a little nauseous, but he still suppressed his physical discomfort and looked at their hands carefully. In the end, it was discovered that although these three people were all swordsmen, they did not have ghost hands. In other words, they were just ordinary adventurers.
That's right, if it was a swordsman who was possessed by ghost hands, how could he die in the hands of the Poison King? People from the Demon Realm, Heavenly Realm, and even Xu Ancestors wouldn't be such a noob.
"Well, I have a general understanding of the matter." Tang Hao stood up and came to the little goblin again, "We are indeed here to save the human girl. Since you know who abducted her, can you Can you lead the way for us?"
After what had just happened, Toby was a little hesitant, but after all, he still had an adventurous heart, and finally agreed, nodding and saying, "I can take you to Graca, which is the territory of the Tauren King Sauta. But I can't go in, because Sauta is the king of the forest. If we goblins resist it, it will be miserable. And before arriving at Graca, we have to pass through Frost Mirk Forest, where a crazy man lives. The magician froze the entire forest, which is very powerful."
"I know that, but you have also seen our strength. A mere crazy magician is nothing." Tang Hao didn't pay much attention to it. Kirito, an ice magician, has the power of a fire magician and can just restrain the opponent. .
Afterwards, the four of them got ready and hit the road.
Although Toby was only a young goblin, because he often ventured in the jungle, he was very familiar with the environment here, and he quickly led the three of them out of this poisonous and thundering ruins.
On the way, Toby also told the three of them many things, such as which lords in the Grand Forest should not be provoked, and which lords were easier to get in touch with. He was very concerned about the weak situation of their goblins. Confessed. After admiring the strength of the three men for a while, he expressed his gratitude to them for killing the poisonous Elvis.
"You don't know how terrifying that poisonous cat king is. He always leads his cat monsters around. When adventurers break in, he kills and eats them. When there are no adventurers, he kills and eats them. Eat our goblins, I have many goblin friends who were eaten by those cat monsters, and now you have killed them, so I want to thank you."
"Listening to what you said, are you goblins at the bottom of the food chain in this forest?" Asuna asked in surprise.
"Yes, yes, we goblins are very weak and have been bullied all the time." Toby nodded repeatedly.
"Isn't there a Luo Lei Kainuo among your goblins? The one that can discharge electricity, it must be very strong."
"That guy is also a bad guy and often bullies us."
Toby said bitterly. Obviously, the goblins are not so peaceful. Probably just like humans, as long as there is a society, there will be conflicts.
As he was talking, suddenly, the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped, as if the cold air suddenly hit him. Not only Toby, but also Tang Hao and Asuna were trembling a little.
The only one who didn't feel anything was Kirito. He had a fire elf constitution and excellent cold resistance.
"Look, there is the Frost Dark Forest." Toby rubbed his body and pointed forward.
The three of them looked around and saw a vast expanse of white ahead. The entire forest was covered with thick ice for several miles. Not only the vegetation and rocks, but also the roads were blocked by the ice, as if it had never melted for thousands of years. .
"this……"
Even Tang Hao was in a daze, but that was not the case in the game!
This kind of large-scale freezing ability, the crazy magician Frost Krach, seems to be much stronger than he imagined... There are only three of them, is it a bit overwhelming?
