Chapter 301 - Nature Forest
Swish!
Lorne crushed the teleportation scroll and returned to Iron Skull City.
Although the Cold Desolate Dragon City was closer to his destination, that place was too dangerous. It was safer to leave from there. Moreover, he could use the Gnome Mineral Company's teleportation array to save time.
Before approaching the teleportation circle, Lorne checked the map.
Iron Skull City was to the west of the map. To the north was the Icy Plains of Calamity, and to the northwest, there was the Gnome Kingdom and the Elven Kingdom. Beyond these two kingdoms was Seaside City. Seaside City was a player city on the same level as Iron Skull City, but because of the obstruction of the Gnome Kingdom and the Elven Kingdom, the players in the two cities could not cross back and forth.
Now, Lorne was going to the Elven Kingdom.
The Elven Kingdom City that bordered Iron Skull City was called Emerald City.
It was said that the Dragon of Emerald, Lena, liked to descend in this city the most, which was why it had the Emerald City. This was an extremely glorious name.
Although he was not sure if the Dragon of Emerald would really be in that city, as long as there was the Elven Holy Temple, he could still introduce it to the Dragon of Emerald.
The second chapter of Lorne's mission was in the other party's hands.
He wondered what kind of mission it would be.
"It seems to be a long way from the Gnome Mountain Range."
Lorne calculated the distance and found that it would take at least two to three days.
The huge Dream Forest became the greatest obstacle in Lorne's way. Only by passing through this forest could he reach the Forest of Nature, where Aisha's race was located. If he continued northwest and walked out of Iron Skull City, he would immediately step into the territory of Emerald City.
What a long journey.
With a sigh, Lorne entered the teleportation circle.
In the next second, he appeared in the Gnome Mountain Range.
Then, he rushed towards the distant forest.
To avoid attracting the attention of the surrounding monsters, Lorne entered stealth mode.
As long as one's level was not too higher than Lorne, they would not notice his arrival. This could reduce the obstacles and quickly march through the forest.
Swish!
In the forest, Lorne was extremely fast.
Because of his attributes and specialization in Agility, coupled with his luxurious equipment, the movement speed of a Summoner was naturally much higher than that of an archer at the same level.
Not only that, but after entering invisibility, his movement speed would also increase by 30%, allowing him to instantly cross the forest at high speed.
The invisibility effect was also excellent, helping him avoid most of the attacks.
However, this model also had a considerable drawback, because invisibility required MP. This was a test of his potion stock. Now, the highest players could buy a Level 4 potion and recover 1,200 MP at once. This was a little difficult for Lorne to maintain.
After all, in the invisibility state, he needed to spend 50 MP per second.
Fortunately, Lorne's MP was close to 20,000 points now. Even without the potion, he could maintain invisibility for more than six minutes.
In addition, his magic recovery ability was very strong. Before his MP was filled, it would also produce a very good effect.
While traveling, Lorne paid special attention to the consumption of MP.
He discovered that his MP would dry up about ten minutes later. Then, without using up his MP, he could recover within ten minutes.
This was not an obstacle that affected speed.
Lorne only moved through the forest for 10 minutes without invisibility, so it did not affect his speed.
After all, with Aisha by her side, she would deal with the monsters she encountered along the way.
Speaking of which, in the mission regarding the 'Holy Angel', he had let Aisha go to the territory to obtain the baptism of the elemental power. Was this considered increasing his aptitude?
It… should be?
Lorne thought that would happen, but he was curious. With Aisha's current strength, what level would she evolve to if she improved again?
Also, would Gabriel's recovery affect Aisha?
Lorne liked Aisha's personality now.
Although she was young, she was abnormally tenacious. Such an unyielding character was indeed very attractive.
Therefore, Lorne did not want Gabriel's recovery to affect Aisha's soul.
"Let's see. Perhaps the two can exist separately and not affect each other?"
Lorne hoped so.
This was equivalent to obtaining two pets.
If in the future, when the affinity reached the level of 'Close Friend', wouldn't he be able to obtain double the happiness with Aisha?
Yes, that made sense. It made complete sense. Hahahaha!
…
Ding!
"You have entered the neutral map—Nature Forest."
Two days later, Lorne finally arrived at the Nature Forest.
This was still the territory of Iron Skull City. If he wanted to go to the Emerald City, he had to continue heading northwest. After passing through half of the Nature Forest, he would reach the range of the Emerald City.
Without thinking, Lorne set off.
But after traveling through the Nature Forest for a while, he suddenly heard something.
The sound of fighting?
The sound of weapons colliding was very clear. Clearly, someone was fighting.
Did some players develop here?
Curious, Lorne entered stealth mode and approached the sound.
In the end, he arrived near a small hill.
Under the hill in front of him, several players were attacking an elf. That elf was very strange. There was faint black energy on his body, and his eyes were scarlet. He looked abnormal.
What kind of elf was it?
It seemed to belong to the same race as Aisha, so they were both Night Elves.
This could be seen from her moon-white skin and silver hair. It was too easy to recognize.
"Aisha, that should be your tribesman, right?" Lorne could not help but ask.
There was only one Night Elf Race in Iron Skull City. Since Aisha was from this Night Elf Race, the elf in front of him was definitely no exception.
"Yes, but she's no longer a kind Night Elf."
Aisha's eyes stared ahead, her small hands clenched.
Sensing her emotions, Lorne held her hand and comforted her, then asked, "How did she become like this?"
"It's the power of the Dark Abyss!"
