Skretil's Ignorance Walker

Chapter 81 The Hidden Village

After leaving Port Pier, Lu Ren and Fa Fuwei set out for the Kingdom of Bols, where they planned to stay for a long time.

However, due to the previous turmoil, their land beast disappeared, and the two of them, who were not good at riding horses, could only go there on foot. Fortunately, Lu Ren said that she could use magic to strengthen her body or fly, but Fa Fuwei felt uncomfortable.

Although Lu Ren could fly directly to the Kingdom of Bols with Fa Fuwei, the purpose of their trip was to travel, so they did not want to skip the scenery along the way.

Only this caused them to move very slowly, and it took them half a month to reach the border of the Kingdom of Bols.

"Fafuwei, look at the map. Is it this direction?"

"Yes, you should see a fork in the road a little further."

Since Lu Ren couldn't see, Fa Fuwei looked at the map. Her literacy skills had improved significantly during this period, and Lu Ren was no longer needed to test her spelling ability.

During this period, the two of them ate and slept in the open. On the lucky few days, they would meet in a village to stay overnight. The rest of the time, they had to camp in the forest. The forest at night is very dangerous. Various monsters, goblins, tauren and other existences threaten everyone in the forest at all times. Fortunately, Lu Ren is there, so the two of them are finally safe. Spent every day.

"Lord Lu Ren, it's getting dark soon. Should we camp here?"

Seeing that the sun had gone down, Fa Fuwei asked Lu Ren.

After hearing Fa Fuwei's question, Lu Ren amplified his magic perception, hoping to see if there were any villages around him.

"Ok?"

As her perception amplified, Lu Ren noticed that there seemed to be some kind of magic barrier in a place in the forest. She was very familiar with this magic power, as if it was her own, but this was her first time here.

And there is a mountain peak in the distance, with a huge oval stone inserted into the top of the mountain, directly cutting out the top of the mountain and inserting it into it.

"really weird."

This doesn't look like it was formed naturally. Something must have happened here. Driven by curiosity, Lu Ren decided to go and take a look. According to her observations, there should be no danger around.

Taking Fa Fuwei off the road, the two came to the forest. After walking for a while, the two finally came to the magic barrier that Lu Ren had previously sensed.

"Favvi, can you see anything?"

"Huh? I didn't see anything but trees."

"Yeah……"

Although the two of them were already standing next to this mysterious magic barrier, Fa Fuwei still didn't feel anything. Lu Ren did clearly sense the existence of this barrier, as if he had released it himself.

Lu Ren gently touched the barrier with her hand. The moment her hand touched it, the originally transparent barrier began to appear. Lu Ren felt that it opened an entrance, so he pulled Fafuwei directly into it.

It was obviously an unknown existence, but Lu Ren didn't know what to think. She didn't feel any danger.

After entering the barrier, what caught Fa Fuwei's eyes was an ancient village. Many houses with different human characteristics were staggered together. Not only on the ground, there were also several rooms on the giant trees.

"Lord Lu Ren, it's incredible that there is actually a village here."

While listening to Fa Fuwei's speech, Lu Ren also began to sense the situation here. This village looked very big, with nearly a hundred houses and hundreds of people living in it. They were all wrapped in this barrier, and what they faced was In the direction, just outside the barrier is the strange mountain peak.

"Humans! Where did you come from?"

At this time, someone discovered them. An older man with a long white beard came over holding a magical scepter. The scepter was made of some kind of tree and had a large leaf wrapped around the top. Lu Ren remembered that there was a pyroxene in his storage ring that was about the same size as this pyroxene.

More importantly, Lu Ren sensed that the old man in front of him had pointed ears, just like an elf like Ante Li. This is an elven village.

But the closest Elf city-state to here is in the south of Bols. How come there is a hidden Elf village outside the border of the Kingdom of Bols?

"Answer my question, human!"

Seeing Lu Ren's silence, the old elf man felt a little angry. Two male elf men behind him also took out their swords and pointed them at them.

"Um, we don't mean any harm, we are just travelers who wandered in here by mistake. I wonder if we can stay overnight?"

Lu Ren, who did not think about the conflict, planned to resolve the current conflict peacefully. Although most secluded beings like this were extremely xenophobic, she still planned to give it a try, after all, she would not hit the smiling person.

"Enter by mistake? You are still the first outsider to enter here since the hero set up the barrier thousands of years ago."

"It's just a coincidence."

Lu Ren flattered and said with a smile, although the opponent's strength was mediocre, Lu Ren was not a person who liked fighting and killing. She just wanted to stay here for one night. As for the story here, although she was a little interested, she also knew , curiosity killed the cat.

"Well... okay, you are allowed to stay here for one night."

"What? Elder, are you letting them in now?"

Everyone present was frightened by the elder's outrightness. The two male elves behind him were obviously unwilling to let Lu Ren and the others enter their village.

"Through this great scepter, I can feel that they have no ill intentions, and what can the two girls do? Don't forget, the original hero was also a stranger who entered our village by mistake."

Under the teachings of the elder, the two guards behind him no longer had any objections. Now Lu Ren and Fa Fuwei finally no longer have to sleep in the wild.

"You can stay at my house. You have to leave early tomorrow morning."

"Ok, no problem."

Lu Ren had no objection to the elder's arrangement. Others certainly didn't want Lu Ren to live in their house anyway, and as an elder, this guy must have a better house than others, right?

"I don't know what you call that elder."

While the elder was guiding the two of them, the surrounding villagers opened their windows one after another to see what the stranger looked like. They must have heard the argument just now. What's more, some even ran outside the house to get a closer look.

Lu Ren, who was a little uncomfortable with this atmosphere, could only try to trick the elder to alleviate the embarrassing situation.

"...My name is Modica, why are you asking for my name?"

After hesitating for a while, Modica still told Lu Ren his name. He didn't understand what Lu Ren was thinking at this time.

"Elder Modica, right? It's nothing, just a simple question. Speaking of which, did you just say that your village has been surrounded by this barrier since thousands of years ago?"

"Yes, this barrier has protected our village for thousands of years. We charge and maintain this barrier every year. Although we cannot release this barrier ourselves, we can still maintain it."

"Hey, just now you said that this barrier was also built by a foreigner, right?"

Facing Lu Ren's constant questions, Modica seemed a little impatient, but he still answered Lu Ren's questions one by one.

"Yes, thousands of years ago, a human girl like you entered our village by mistake. She lived in the village for a while, and then helped the village resist the attack of the monsters. She built a barrier for the village to protect the safety of the villagers. , even my scepter was made by her."

"That's it, what happened to her later?"

Hearing this question, Modica, who was originally a little impatient, now had a disappointed expression. They have now arrived at Modica's house. In front of the door, Modica said nostalgically.

"Later, in order to protect this village, she sacrificed herself to seal the demon that threatened it. It has been more than a thousand years since then. Look at that high mountain. The sealed demon is inside."

After that, Modica pointed to the strange mountain peak that Lu Ren had seen before. Thinking about it, this demon should be sealed in that huge oval stone.

"Until now, the guardian has been guarding it and does not allow anyone to get close."

"You remember it so clearly. It must have left a deep impression on you at the time, so you still remember it a thousand years later."

Lu Ren flattered him, saying that elves are generally immortal species, so it wouldn't be a big problem for such an old man in front of him to live for a thousand years, right?

"No, this is what my father told me. I am only over 600 years old now."

"Huh? That's it..."
