Chapter 597: Chapter 593, feeding
The branches and leaves were brought by Al to a forest at the edge of the High Elves’gathering place.
There were all kinds of creatures living in this forest. It was the indispensable “Circle”of Arthur Crow. In addition, the other side of the forest was the forgotten land, so there were patrol teams patrolling inside the forest.
If the patrols found out about it, not only would al face prolonged confinement, but she might also be locked in the meditation hall.
However, she felt that instead of worrying about when she would run into the patrols, she should worry about when she would collapse on the ground!
She had never been so hungry in her life. The hunger in her stomach made her fall into a weak state. At first, Al was still energetic, but because of the hunger, he gradually slowed down his pace.
What on Earth happened to Arthur Crow?
Leaf sensed the magic power in her body, but it did not decrease at all. This meant that the holy tree was still in good condition, but the frequent hunger made leaf very uncomfortable.
If this mutation had started yesterday, then she had not eaten anything for almost the whole day.
“Leaf… have you reached the forgotten land?”
In the end, Al was so tired that he could not run anymore. He could only let twig hold her hand and walk forward.
“No…”
Twig held her consciousness and walked deeper into the forest. At the same time, she was alert of all the subtle movements around her.
In such a weak situation, she did not even have the ability to escape when she met the patrol team.
“Have we reached now?”Al asked again after walking a few steps.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No, we seem to have lost our way.”
Leaf looked around the forest. She remembered that the elders seemed to have set up a magic array at the edge of the forest to confuse the intruders. Any creature that was close to the forgotten land would feel as if they had entered a maze.
“There seems to be a bird on the tree,”Al suddenly said.
This sentence slightly surprised leaf. She immediately turned around and patted Al’s cheek with both hands.
“Wake up, don’t use magic here. It’ll attract the patrol team!”
“But I’m starving.”
Al’s hunger far exceeded Twig’s expectations. Perhaps it was because she needed to maintain a large amount of magic power in her body, but before twig and leaf could say another word, Al’s body fell backwards.
Twig and leaf quickly grabbed al. after a moment of silence, they could only carry the starving and unconscious al on their backs.
Perhaps she should take the initiative to go to the patrollers and explain the reason? If they continued to lose their way in this forest, they would very likely become the first High Elves to starve to death at their own doorstep.
But the branches and leaves did not do so. A strange belief supported her to carry aer deeper into the forest.
The hunger gradually blurred her consciousness. In the end, the branches and leaves did not know how long they had been walking for. When she took the next step, her entire body slid down a slope.
The branches and leaves finally fell into the damp pile of leaves. The fatigue swept over the branches and leaves. She felt that she could not even open her eyes.
But vaguely, the branches and leaves seemed to smell a fragrance. It was a fragrance that she seemed to have smelled before, but her mind was too heavy and she could not remember it.
Wait… was this the fragrance of food?
The branches and leaves barely supported their bodies. The moment they wanted to carry Al on their backs and walk in that direction, Al, who had been unconscious, suddenly woke up.
Vaguely, the branches and leaves seemed to see stars shining in her eyes.
“It’s Cake!”Al’s excited voice echoed in the ears of the branches and leaves.
The leaves could only lie on the ground and watch as Al, who should have lost all his strength, suddenly stood up and quickly disappeared from her sight.
However, not long after, Al seemed to remember that he had forgotten something. He instantly turned back and carried the weak leaves on his back.
Al ran out of the forest with the leaves. The dazzling sunlight made the leaves’eyes unable to adapt to it. After a period of time, the leaves gradually saw the scenery in the distance clearly.
The Forgotten Land!
From the outside, it looked like a small hill that was covered in vines and moss. However, how could there be a tavern in such an abandoned place?
Wait… They didn’t see the tavern branches and leaves. The branches and leaves saw a small cart made of wood at the entrance of the forgotten land. The smell of the cake came from that small cart.
“Wait… Al. . .”
The branches and leaves wanted to remind al that there was a defensive magic circle around the forgotten land.
“And baking cookies!”
But Al’s mind was already controlled by his appetite. She ran directly to the cart.
The defensive magic circle around the forgotten land didn’t work. Al easily brought the branches and leaves through the magic barrier and arrived in front of the cart.
At this time, the twigs and leaves also saw the figure standing next to the small car. It was… a very beautiful ‘human girl’.
“You… Why are you here?”
At this time, the twigs and leaves came back to their senses and realized that it was not normal for humans to appear in ASCEKRO. The worst case scenario would be a devastating disaster for ASCEKRO.
“I want a strawberry cake and a bag of blueberry cookies, thank you!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut before the ‘human girl’could reply to twig and leaf’s question, Al directly said what he wanted in a loud voice.
The ‘Human Girl’was also very cooperative as she wrapped up the items on the cart’s shelf and handed them over to Al..
“HMM… can I use the weave’s savings to pay for this?”
After a trip to Nolan, Al still knew that exchanging items between humans required money. Unfortunately, she did not have any currency from any human countries.
“No need to pay. These are free gifts.”
When the ‘Human Girl’said this, twig leaf felt that something was wrong. She was about to warn Al to be careful of the poison, but Al had already stuffed the cake into his mouth.
“Twig leaf, if you don’t mind, you can eat the biscuits.”Al felt twig leaf’s gaze, as if she thought that it was because she had eaten the cake that he was looking at her with such a terrifying gaze.
”…”
Twig fell into a long silence again. She looked at the packet of biscuits that Al handed over. There was a mix of blueberry and milk fragrance in it. For someone who was already unable to endure the hunger.., this was definitely an irresistible temptation.
So twig swallowed her saliva and glanced at Al, who was still fine after eating the cake. Just as she was about to take a biscuit and taste it..
“What are you guys doing over there!”
A stern rebuke came from behind her. Twig turned around… the worst scene she had expected had happened.
The high elf patrol team had found this place! She looked at the human girl again. She seemed to have fallen into a state of panic, which was not the behavior of a warrior at all.
“Eno, forget about the cart, just run back!”
The interface of the magic net appeared in front of her, letting twigs and leaves know the name of the person in front of her. Twigs and leaves decided to negotiate with the ELF patrol team, but unfortunately, Al picked her up in the next second.
“It’s time to run,”al said with a muffled voice with a piece of cake in his mouth.
“Put me down!”
The branches and leaves did not stop him. She could only watch as Al carried her into the forgotten land.
