Chapter 1056: Chapter 69: Hades’ Three Techniques_5
Yan Shi was reminded of the age ratio of elves and found himself speechless, unable to utter a word. Yan Li laughed heartily and said, "Then we should call you Big Sister Elf."
The fairy smiled slightly and said, "Actually, according to that ratio, I’m equivalent to a twenty-year-old human."
Sitting on the ground, Ah Dai spoke indifferently, "Elf Sister, do you know where the other captured members of your race might be?"
The color drained from the fairy’s face as she shook her head and said, "I don’t know. My name is Zhuo Yun. Back in the Elf Forest, a sister and I were captured by a group of people in black. They fed us a kind of hallucinogenic drug that kept our minds in a muddled state. When I became lucid, I discovered that sixteen of us had been captured, including our little Princess. Those people in black were very cold, never speaking a word to us. We were kept confined inside several carriages, and after an unknown length of time, they brought us down and locked us all in a dungeon. They completely restrained us to the point that we couldn’t even kill ourselves. Later, my people were taken away one by one. My sister, a brother, and I were transferred to the Dark Élan Club, and not long ago, they were taken away by people from that club, leaving me alone. I don’t know where they are at all, but you must save my people! Their fate must be miserable in the hands of those dreadful humans." Zhuo Yun’s large eyes turned red, her transparent wings gently fluttering behind her as a sorrowful expression spread across her face.
Yan Shi pondered and said, "According to what you’ve said, our assumption is correct; the elves must have been sold off to various places in the Empire of the Sunset City. It seems we must search place by place."
Ah Dai suddenly thought of something and took out the green Elf Bracelet from the Dragon’s Blood, asking, "Sister Zhuo Yun, if you stay with us, how would the Elf Bracelet sense the aura of your other kin?"
Zhuo Yun said, "That’s simple. As long as the Elf Bracelet absorbs a drop of my blood, it won’t sense my aura anymore. You can then use it to sense the presence of other members of my race." Saying this, she walked over to Ah Dai, gently bit a small wound on her index finger, and dropped a bead of her blood onto the Elf Bracelet. As she had said, the light of the Elf Bracelet dimmed gradually until it returned to a non-lustrous dark green.
Yan Shi said, "Let’s rest here a bit, and once Ah Dai has adjusted himself, we’ll change our attire and head to the next city to search for the elves."
Ah Dai nodded, stopped talking, closed his eyes, and began meditating. He meditated for a full day and night before his body reached peak condition. During this time, Ah Dai found that the Silver Body in his dantian seemed to have absorbed a bit of energy from the second Golden Body passed to him by the Sword Saint of Tian Gang, slightly improving his skill.
Two days later, they found a secluded small village, bought some common civilian clothes from the local people, and specially bought a hat and a cloak for Zhuo Yun to cover her elf characteristics and her transparent wings. From the outside, no one could tell her identity anymore. Thus, the party of four continued their journey to save the elves.
Meanwhile, the name of Grim Reaper had already begun to spread across the Empire of Sunset City.
Assassin’s Guild.
"What? The Grim Reaper? Where did this Grim Reaper come from?" the lord asked in shock.
The Vice President of the Assassin’s Guild respectfully said, "According to the information from the Thieves Guild, something major happened in Dark City. Not only did the biggest gambling den there get destroyed, but even the City Lord’s Mansion was wiped out, with no one escaping alive. On the previous night, golden Divine Light appeared in Dark City, causing one percent of the city to completely vanish in a very strange event."
After a long silence, the lord said, "Do you know how the people in the City Lord’s Mansion died?"
