Aylwin Defense Line.
This was not a defensive line built by humans. It was built like a great wall made of bricks to prevent the monsters from charging out of Grand Forest and harming human society.
On the contrary, the Aylwin Line was a non-existent line of defense.
Or rather, it was a kind of barrier.
Grand Forest was located in the center of the continent. It was the holy land where the elves lived.
However, it was also because of its geographical location that it happened to be at the junction of the three human countries.
The Elwynn Line of Defense was the outer area of Grand Forest, a barrier built by the elves.
It was built to defend against external invasions from Grand Forest.
At the intersection of the plain and the forest, as the relationship between elves and humans became more and more harmonious, it gradually developed into a comfortable town named Elwynn Defense Line.
However, a few years ago, a sudden fire destroyed Grand Forest, and there were no more traces of elves on the continent. The abandoned Grand Forest was also occupied by various monsters that had moved here.
The most common ones were the Cat Demons and Goblins.
As for the Taurens, they were the natives here. They were once friends of the elves, a powerful but peace-loving race that lived together in this peaceful forest.
However, with the appearance of the great shift.
The Minotaurs were also corrupted by something unknown and became brutal.
The disappearance of the elves didn't make the Elwynn defense line fall.
Humans still lived here, and they changed the Elwynn Line of Defense from defending against the invasion of the outside of Grand Forest to the current line of defense to prevent the monsters in Grand Forest from breaking through the defense.
This was a neutral adventurer town. There was no distinction between nationality.
Adventurers from any country could enter and leave this place freely. Of course, this place had already been occupied by the Delos Empire. Therefore, the so-called free access was actually subject to conditions.
As for Grand Forest, it had also changed from a holy land of elves to an ordinary forest full of monsters that anyone could enter at will.
Even with Celia leading the way, it still took three hours for Fang Xing and the others to return to the Elwynn defense line from their original position.
This was enough to prove that they were already very deep into Grand Forest.
There were several armored guards at the gate of Elwynn Town.
However, they did not do too much investigation on the three of them.
To them, as long as they were not demons, anyone could enter and exit this place freely.
Although the town of Elwynn had a strong wall with traces of human civilization, there were many elven ruins inside the town, hollow trees at the bottom.
Both humans and elves used to live in this hollow tree.
However, as the elf disappeared.
Humans had built many new buildings here, but a considerable number of people still lived in these hollow trees. For example, Celia was one of them.
Celia's home was a towering tree with a diameter of more than ten meters that had been hollowed out at the bottom!
And this big tree happened to be in the center of Elwynn Town.
Once, with this tree as the center, elves and humans traded with each other here, which was beneficial to both sides. It developed into the current Elwynn Market in the center of the town.
"Celia, thank God you're back safely.”
By the time Fang Xing and the other two arrived outside Celia's room, there was already a bearded, muscular uncle waiting anxiously. When he saw Celia, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"Uncle Linus, thank you for your concern.”
A coquettish expression appeared on Celia's beautiful face. She smiled sweetly and said," Saouta didn't hurt me. Besides, the adventurers saved me too.”
" This is Mr. Fang Xing, a Magician. This is Miss Youyou, also a Magician."”
"Thank you for your help."
Upon hearing this, Linus immediately bowed to the two of them solemnly." If anything happens to Celia, I really don't know what to do. In the future, if you need to forge weapons, you can come to my blacksmith shop. I'll give you a 50% discount!”
"You're too polite."
Youyou had already shyly shrunk behind Fang Xing, and Fang Xing politely replied," This is what we should do.”
After a round of pleasantries, the group did not want to stand outside and be surrounded by people, so they walked into Celia's house.
The hollow tree had a glowing arched space for people to pass through, but there was no traditional 'door'.
What replaced it was a thin film that was emitting a faint light.
Just like the Aylwin Defense Line, this thin film was also a kind of barrier.
Other than the owner of the house and the guests recognized by the owner, no one else could enter.
The moment he entered the house, Linas 'expression instantly turned serious.
"Celia, what happened? Ever since the Glan Fire incident, the Tauren King had never stepped out of the Glan Forest. Why did he come to Aylwin Line to call for you and take you away?”
Linas didn't care about the presence of two outsiders like Fang Xing because he knew that Celia knew what was important and what was not. Since she brought these two in, it meant that they were trustworthy.
"Saouta,"
A pained expression flashed across Celia's face." I can feel Tower's pain. However, ever since the Great Shift, its temperament had changed greatly and it had become more brutal. However, it still loved this forest deeply and wanted to do its best to protect it.”
"But this time, it seems to have sensed the existence of some kind of dark power in the depths of Grand Forest. A crisis that could destroy Grand Forest was brewing, so it wanted to stop it. It wants me to repair Grand Forest's magic array…"
"Madman!"
A hint of anger flashed across Linasi's face, and his voice was so loud that Youyou, who was already a little scared, began to tremble. Her small hands gripped tightly onto Fang Xing's clothes.
Linas seemed to have noticed it too. He lowered his voice, but he still couldn't hide his anger." That's the magic circle left by Archmage Mal to protect the Arad Continent. How can a little girl like you fix it?"”
"Celia, you don't have to worry about this.”
As Linas spoke, he walked towards the door and instructed," I'll arrange for someone to enter the depths of the forest to investigate the situation. Don't worry, if there's really a crisis. This matter would not only affect the survival of Grand Forest, but it would also be a disaster for humanity.”
"Just rest well. We'll solve it.”
