Chapter 600: Chapter 596, capture

Translator: 549690339 

A rotten smell swept over Aurelian.

The streets of the forgotten land were filled with a creepy silence, but what made Aurelian even more ashamed was the voice in her stomach.

Aurelian shook her head and threw the discomfort out of her mind, focusing on the hidden dangers in the ruins.

In order to warn them to stay away from the forgotten land and the human world, the elders had heard about the legend of the forgotten land since Aurelian was young.

According to the legend, this was a place built by the dangerous blasphemers. These blasphemers had peered into the ‘existence’that they should not see in order to seek for the truth, it caused the blasphemers in the entire city to become a monster that was mixed with flesh and blood.

The elders used all the words Aurelian found repulsive when describing that monster. Aurelian believed that if she met that monster in real life, she would definitely feel extremely disgusted, but unfortunately, there was nothing in her stomach that could make her vomit.

“Elder sister Aurelian, it seems like there hasn’t been any signs of biological activity for a long time.”

An elf scout brushed the dust on the ground with her hand, but not long after she said this, Aurelian saw the footprints left behind by someone on the road not far away.

“Don’t speak.”

Aurelian raised her hand slightly to signal the four scouts behind her to keep quiet.

The footprints on the ground extended all the way into the depths of the forgotten land. Judging from the size of the footprints, it seemed to be Al’s. were there three other people following her?

Aurelian focused her attention. The superior hearing of the High Elves allowed her to catch all kinds of noises coming from the depths of the forgotten land.

The sound of burning flames and the sound of bubbling liquid mixed together. If Aurelian listened carefully, she could still hear the creepy sound of… Chewing!

Could it be true that there were monsters living in the forgotten land?

Aurelian shivered for some reason, but she still took on the role of a leader and carefully led the patrol team to the depths of the forgotten land.

After less than ten minutes, Aurelian led the patrol team to the end of the forgotten land.

In the center of the forgotten land was a huge prototype building. The streets on both sides of the building started from this building and extended outwards.

“Elder sister Aurelian, look over there!”

An inspector noticed that there was something strange about a building on one side of the street. Compared to the other dilapidated buildings on the street, that building was really… too clean.

“The sound is coming from inside.”

Aurelian’s long ears trembled. She could clearly hear the sound of swallowing and chewing coming from inside.

There were no windows on the front of the building. There was only a door that had been carefully cleaned. The door was only slightly opened, as if it was deliberately telling Aurelian that the door was not locked.

“Get Ready.”

Aurelian did not walk straight to the door. Instead, she walked around the building and looked around. Through the window on the second floor of the building, she could only vaguely see the lights inside, the view of the first floor’s lobby was blocked by the corridor.

Finally, Aurelian led her patrol team members to the door. The silver inscription had already condensed on her longbow. Just as Aurelian was about to open the door.., the members behind her were also ready to attack.

The sound of chewing and swallowing became clearer and clearer, especially the sound of bones being crushed. It made Aurelian’s whole body tense up.

Aurelian let out a slight breath. She suddenly opened the door, drew her longbow, and aimed inside!

However, Aurelian did not see a monster with a twisted body in this building. However… she did see a High Elf who was gobbling up the flesh and blood of living creatures.

“Al!”

Aurelian looked at the High Elf who was sitting in the middle of the hall in surprise. The corner of her mouth was full of red and sticky liquid, and there was a large pile of plates next to her.

This was not how High Elves should eat! Could it be that the problem child had been corroded by the monster?

The scenery inside the building made Aurelian recover from the horrifying illusion, because the scenery inside the building was far too different from the gloomy atmosphere of the forgotten land!

The green leaves and branches on the pure white walls formed a delicate and beautiful pattern. The chandelier on the ceiling emitted orange light, giving off a strange sense of warmth.

Where exactly was this place? Aurelian turned around and looked behind her. She was sure that behind her was the eerie forgotten land.

Could this door be some kind of teleportation portal?

A large number of questions swept over Aurelian. Before she could think clearly about what had happened, an unfamiliar voice sounded in her ear.

“Welcome to the Hearthstone Tavern. What can I do for You?”

“Hearthstone Tavern?”

Aurelian suddenly looked at the source of the voice. A… Human male was standing there looking at him with a smile.

“My Name is Joshua Arnold. This is my tavern.”Joshua looked at the Four High Elves and introduced himself in a friendly tone.

“Human… is what the Council of Elders said true?”

After determining Joshua’s identity, Aurelian instantly took a step back, pulled the bowstring in her hand, and aimed the arrow at Joshua.

“This young lady… you came to this tavern as a guest, but that doesn’t mean that you can act so rudely.”

The expression on Joshua’s face did not change as he looked at the arrow.

“Leave this place! Intruders of Arthur Cross.”

Aurelian gave a stern warning to Joshua.

“Intruder? But Your Holy Tree invited me here,”said Joshua.

“Holy Tree?”

“Elder sister Aurelian, don’t be deceived by him.”

Another member of the patrol team reminded Aurelian. Aurelian instantly came back to her senses without any hesitation. She directly aimed the arrow at the position of Joshua’s leg and released the bowstring.

However, just before she took aim, her vision suddenly went blank for a second. Then… she missed. She missed a little too far!

The arrow she shot directly destroyed a round table not far away.

Aurelian covered her forehead. She knew that she was a little weak due to hunger, but that did not mean that she would make such a low-level mistake.

She turned her head and noticed that there was a human standing behind Joshua. The light purple rune on his hand had just disappeared.

A spell that could affect one’s spirit?

No matter what, Aurelian did not intend to stop her attack. When she was ready to use forceful means to drive these humans away..

“I still hope that more customers will come to this new shop, but I don’t welcome rude customers like you.”

Jose snapped his fingers lightly. This time, Jose didn’t make a move personally, but Aurelian’s movements stopped at that moment.

Frost Elf? Aurelian raised her head and saw an elf with long silver hair appear on the second floor. This was a characteristic of frost elves, but the other party’s pupils were golden vertical pupils.

The moment Aurelian met the Frost Elf’s gaze, her body froze. In the next second, before she could react.., a large amount of frost suddenly condensed on the ground, trapping her and the other patrol team members.

The Frost slowly spread to her entire body. By the time Aurelian wanted to struggle, it was too late. Other than her head… the rest of her body was trapped in a cage made of ice.

“That’s much more obedient,”Joshua said.
