Elf Archer of Life in Another World

Sui's hand holding the scroll paused, and Niannian rushed out of the small hall and disappeared in front of everyone in an instant.

Qi Youfeng stood up, clasped his fists, and hurried away after Nian Nian.

Nian Nian's cloak provided a flight mode, so it was naturally impossible for him to catch up, but he knew where Nian Nian was going.

In other words, he guessed the crux of this unexpected incident.

"...It's such a bad life..." Zheng Qi murmured as he looked at Qi Youfeng's disappearing back.

"Did you really offend that Hu God and be punished by God?" Sanchi Shui asked in shock.

"Let's go take a look too." Shi Sui put the scroll into his sleeves, stood up and was about to leave, but suddenly paused.

"Where did Wu Jian go?"

Wu Jian's presence was too low, and he didn't like to join in the fun. The three of them didn't even notice whether they were online or not.

Zheng Qi was stunned, looked at his friend list, and wanted to send a message to ask.

"I'm here." A calm voice sounded. It was Wu Jian walking from the door. Looking at the direction, he should have bumped into Qi Youfeng.

"Do you know what's going on in the palace?"

Shi Sui sat down again and asked with a frown.

It suddenly occurred to him that they seemed to be unable to see the excitement. The only person with a legitimate reason and identity who walked into the palace to inquire about the situation happened to be angry and ran away.

"The incident happened suddenly, and I was more shocked than angry." Wu Jian replied. The palace was already in a mess, and most people were panicking and asking what to do. Not many people have yet definitely connected the matter to a certain person.

a specific person or thing.

"That big lake really disappeared? Disappeared out of thin air?" Sanchi Shui couldn't sit still. Although they couldn't enter the palace, they could just take a detour and go directly to the lake. What's the point of sitting here?

"Not yet, but I can't say for sure." Wu Jian's face was also a little solemn. There seemed to be a lot of water plants at the bottom of Lake Murite. After the water level dropped significantly, the surface of the lake that usually sparkled under the moonlight was covered with wet black grass.

Because of the sticky plants, those who went to explore could only confirm that the place had not dried out completely, but they were not sure whether the lake had completely disappeared.

Not yet? That means there is a process for the disappearance of the lake water, rather than being evaporated out of thin air? There seems to be... below the Mulit Lake...

"Did they all pour into the underground river?" Zheng Qi asked, looking at Wu Jian, "Didn't you leave someone in the cave? Did you notice anything strange?"

Wu Jian was silent, and after a while he said: "We have all lost contact."

"Hiss...are they all washed away?" Zheng Qi took a breath. It wasn't that he felt sorry for the lives of these NPCs, but that these three guards were Song Qing's property, and he was worried that he could not afford to pay compensation.

Wu Jian shook his head and turned to look at Shi Sui: "Get ready to leave."

Whether it is man-made or accidental, the reason that caused such a large area of ​​water to almost disappear in a short period of time is definitely not something that these few people can solve.

And the consequences of this incident are even more difficult to estimate. When the water source to maintain production and life disappears, despair, anger, and madness will breed, especially in such a country where the people are irrational, either this belief will collapse, or it will enter into a pathological and paranoid persecution of the whole people.

, a period of chaos is inevitable. Who knows, the entire city of Khawarizhe will collapse and become a ruin in the desert.

Therefore, it is best for them to leave now, before the situation reaches an irreversible point, and to stay as far away from this city that is destined to be paralyzed or even destroyed as possible.

As for the two countries' reconciliation and mutual trade, even if the country is gone, who cares about this? They are not here to provide international assistance.

Maybe the Hu God really exists and has a way to solve the problems here, but this uncertainty is not worth betting the caravan here.

"I'll contact Mu Shi outside the city and ask him to organize his team to respond." Zheng Qi looked coldly, and he also thought of the worst outcome and the best response to this matter.

"Three feet of water, go and let everyone prepare." Shisui paused and added four words, "Prepare for battle."

The city gate will be closed every evening. If they want to leave at this time, they must not go around to the side of Lake Mulit. They may have to break through the city gate.

"Use the prophet to get out of the city." Wu Jian suggested. The old man he and Song Qing captured is still alive, so maybe he can use it now.

Shi Sui nodded and asked San Chi Sui to inform others, and then prepared to send a message to Nian Nian.

"You'd better not tell her now." Wu Jian stood in the middle of the small hall and said calmly.

Shisui thought for a moment and nodded: "That's fine, I'll notify her when we leave."

Zheng Qi, who had just raised his head, lowered his head to read the news again. He also thought it would be better not to notify Nian Nian for the time being.

This girl's temperament is relatively simple and easy to understand. Maybe she wants to save the crisis, at least she won't leave the new king and the new princess alone. If she knows that they have decided to abandon this place, who knows what else will happen.

What happened?

Thinking of this, Zheng Qi was a little worried: "Will she be fine alone?"

"No." Wu Jian glanced at him and felt that this person's worries were unnecessary. Along the way, their strength has been obvious to all, and he believed that he would kill all those who doubted her. He did.

I sincerely hope that there will be a riot every year to provide cover for the retreat of large troops.

Wu Jian knew that his relationship with these people was only casual. He only had nodding acquaintances with Zheng Qi and Mu Shi, who were both Qilin Army players, so he did not express his expectations.

Zheng Qi shook his head helplessly, jumped up from his chair, and stretched: "I'll go take a look near the South City Gate. If I need anything, I'll contact you in time."

Wu Jian also took steps to leave, but before he could walk out of the small hall door, he heard someone behind him stop him: "Stay here for now."

Wu Jian turned around and waited for Shi Sui to speak.

"Please..." Niannian thought for a moment and then said, "Don't rush to pull that prophet out yet. There may be a way over there in Niannian."

Wu Jian looked at him in surprise. Did this man really regard the girl as a goddess? The entire lake was gone, what else could she do? Artificial rainfall? Digging the lake on site? Backflow of river water?

"Thank you, please continue to pay attention to the situation at the palace, and contact me in time if anything happens."

Shi Sui didn't say anything more and just chatted for a few words. Wu Jian answered patiently, and the two of them left the small flower hall together and went to do their own things.

The sacred lake disappeared, and everyone who saw it was shocked and frightened, and fell to their knees in panic and didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, the palace is located in the northeast of Hawarizhe City, directly connected to the shore of the Divine Lake to the east. No one stays near the Divine Lake on weekdays, so the news has not reached more people's ears.

As soon as Kamble put on his royal robe, he was called by the panicked guards to the east platform where Song Qing had pushed him down every year. He looked at the scene in front of him and his face turned earth-colored.

The pale moonlight fell on the deep black low-lying land, reminding him of the white mold spots on the old grain at home, mixed with black mucus, and emitting a unique earthy smell of rot.

As messy footsteps approached, Kamble was trembling all over, waiting hopelessly to be stripped off his bright clothes and thrown into the wild among wolves to receive the punishment he deserved.

This must be the anger of God Hu, punishing him for transgressing and punishing him, a humble lowly person who stole the glory of the faithful people.

Naturally, Niannian did not want to deceive him, and even gave him a chance to choose. However, he was blinded by hatred and greed, and actually listened to the devil's bewitchment. With unrealistic complacency and doubts about God Hu, he arrogantly

Wear a crown for yourself.

He wanted to immediately turn around, kneel on the ground, cry bitterly, and beg for forgiveness. He also wanted to try his best to maintain the superiority of God's Chosen and fight for his own survival.

The anxious and struggling Kamble did not wait for the scene he expected. He turned slightly and saw desperate faces, and suddenly realized the seriousness of this matter.

This is not a punishment for a certain person, this is a disaster that destroys a city. Compared to the latter, he is really insignificant, and this is definitely not aimed at such an insignificant person like him.

Before Kamble's heart could be filled with this sinful joy, their prophet descended from the sky.

Seeing Nian Nian suspended in mid-air, the ministers knelt down and kowtowed. Their sobs and sobs lingered in the moonlight, which stung Nian Nian's heart.

She had seen the murals in the underground temple and knew that Lake Mulit was the foundation of Khawarizh City. She saw the old ministers who were in tears, the young guards with red eyes, and the slumped

The maids of the land. Nian Nian's eyes swept over the delighted Kamble and rested on the calm Aliya.

Withdrawing my eyes and thoughts, I sent my voice into everyone’s ears every year:

"Murite Lake has not disappeared, you don't have to worry."

After thinking about it, Nian Nian didn't dare to say it too perfectly. When he met everyone's expectant eyes, he smiled slightly, nodded, and flew to the other side of the lake shore.

I landed several times every year and found that there was still some water left at the bottom of the lake, and I also found the source and destination of the lake water.

This is a lake where several small underground rivers merge and emerge from the ground. It took many years to accumulate such a large area of ​​water. The soil and rock at the bottom of the lake are of special quality, and the lake water will slowly seep down, eventually converging into a large river deeper underground, flowing

After passing underground in Hawarizhe City, it gradually climbed to the surface and turned into the winding river they had seen before entering the city every year. The infiltration of the lake water also has a filtering effect, so the well water in Hawarizhe City

That's why it's so clear.

Originally, there should be a balance between the infiltration and inflow of the lake water, which formed a stable water source, which not only supported the residents in the city, but also brought about the prosperity of agriculture and animal husbandry near Hawarizhe City. But this

At that time, a huge hole appeared at the bottom of the lake, causing a large amount of water to drain. It is expected that the water level in the wells in the city would also surge at this time, but after the surge, it would probably be a severe drought.

My whole body was covered with lake mud and aquatic plant slime, and I walked from the bottom of the lake to the dry shore every year. I lost my mind for a while.

She temporarily blocked the hole. Fortunately, there wasn't much water left in the lake, so it couldn't break through the gap she temporarily covered with mud and leaves, but the water that had flowed away would definitely not come back.

It would be nice if the river water could be reversed, or the water volume of those small underground rivers could be enlarged. I wonder if there is a valve or something like that somewhere.

Nian Nian lay on the ground, his chest heaving violently, panting and thinking endlessly.

Also, how did that big hole appear? It seems like it leads to an underground temple?

Go and have a look.

Niannian sat up, ignoring the dripping mud on his body, and rose into the sky again.

When Qi Youfeng rushed to the location of the original temple, he didn't see Nian Nian.

Seeing the river in the cave, Qi Youfeng gritted his teeth.

Sure enough, something went wrong here.

Is it really because he destroyed the word on the bottom of the underground temple pool that the lake water drained and poured into the underground river? But he didn't cause much damage at the time?

Qi Youfeng jumped into the pool and waited against the pool wall until he could no longer see the figures moving on the water. Then he tentatively got out of the water. He found that the guards who stayed behind were indeed in chaos after they came to check the situation. He closed the door.

With his eyes sinking to the bottom of the water, he scratched out the character "Hu Shen", and then hollowed out this trace.

When he and Nian Nian entered the temple, one of them was unconscious, and the other was attacked by the bones. Later, those who accidentally fell into madness became aggressive after he read this word, and he was the only target of the attack.

So he guessed that only NPCs would be affected by this word, and players would trigger attack mode.

That's why he wanted to destroy this word and eliminate the guards and other witnesses Wu Jian had arranged to eliminate the possibility of his identity being revealed every year.

Qi Youfeng walked around and saw that the water in the underground river in the cave had eased a lot. It seemed that the lake was almost drained, and there was probably no way to save it. Although he felt a little sorry for the NPCs living here, he also

There are no thoughts of regret.

That's good, she won't get into trouble with the prophet Hu Shen every year. After all, she is also a person who has to live in the game world.

When he sensed someone approaching, Qi Youfeng was about to send a message to Nian Nian, who was somewhere, to report the situation here and to ask her not to make this trip in vain. In his opinion, the person who directly contacted the city was Nian Nian.

Waiting for others, it would be best to just leave here.

Qi Youfeng turned around suddenly, pointed the tip of the knife directly at the person's head, and saw the person's face clearly.

“Why is it you??”
