Chapter 20: Secret message

Shari'er's face showed a strange brown color, and a lot of lines suddenly appeared on her white skin. As if praying, she clasped her hands and placed it on her chest. Her long green hair was windless and automatic. It seemed that there was a huge power in her body that would break out of the cocoon.
"Shalil! No!" Elena cried out behind her. As a rain dew priest, she is particularly sensitive to the power of nature. She could feel the power in Sarri's body!
That is the "Guardian Seed"! The seeds born on the world tree are far rarer than the vine seeds.
For an elf mage or priest, the guardian seed is the last killer trap in the Jedi, but the price to use it is also unbearable.
As a rain priest who went out for training, Elena had no such treasure in her hand. She didn't expect this inspector to bring one.
She saw that Sari Er's skin had changed, and she knew that she couldn't stop her.
"You should use it for me." Elena murmured.
The other elves are of ordinary origin, and have never seen anything like this. They don't know, so they just tremble on the side in fear.
Ralph saw that Sally was in a strange state, and heard another elf screaming in silence, and felt that the situation was wrong. He suspected that this was a certain trick of Sharier. What the enemy wanted to do, I wouldn't let her do anything. This was Ralph's consistent mission. At this time, he no longer had the idea of ​​catching Sharier alive, raising his sword and struggling to pierce her heart.
However, just as the tip of his sword was about to touch Shalil's body, Shalil's body skyrocketed, and her clothes shattered into pieces in a flash.
As she grew taller and bigger, her appearance also changed dramatically. Her lower limbs turned into two clusters of roots, her body turned into a thick tree body, her hands turned into huge branches, the skin all over her body was completely transformed into rough and hard bark, and her flying hair turned into Vines. Her head merged into the tree trunk and turned into a wooden face with eyes and mouth.
She became a tree man with three floors.
Because he suddenly reached more than five meters in height, Ralph stabbed the treeman's calf with a sword, and fell a few pieces of bark, leaving a two-inch deep thorn. But for the big tree people, it doesn't matter.
When the tree man hit with a forked giant hand, Ralph was beaten out of the whole person. Until more than ten meters away, he turned over and stood on the ground.
The strength was too great, and he was injured a bit in the face. Ralph wiped the blood from his mouth and looked at the tree man solemnly. He has only heard about tree people in legends. It is said that when the elven kingdom is fighting, the tree people are their main siege. These guys are strong and solid, with no viscera. They have little weakness except for the slower speed and some fear of fire.
Sure enough, some masters in the slaves tried to cut the limbs of the treemen, but except for cutting off a few pieces of bark, which caused the sawdust to fly, it had no effect. And the other slaves have been scared to hide aside for a long time, this tree is too tall, the average person will have huge psychological pressure just looking at it, not to mention hands-on.
"Don't fight it hard! First grab the other elf women." Ralph yelled. He went round and rushed to Elena from the side.
However, Shuren quickly discovered their trick. It stretched out its giant hand and lightly grabbed it, pinched the five elves in his hand, raised it into the air, and then used the remaining hand to fight the slaves.
Ralph wandered for a while without any progress. The slaves under his hands were shot to death by the Shuren. A little boss came over and asked, "Boss Ralph, let's forget it. We can't discuss it with this thing. It's better to search for a few more villages."
Ralph slaps on the little boss's face. "Fart, these elves are the most valuable things in these villages. We are all dead. How can we let them go!"
"But that thing is invulnerable." The little leader said with a sad face.
"You, you, and you, go get some torches. Come a few of you, go to the cellar just now and get the kerosene and shochu." Ralph commanded, "Other people will entangle it with me and use force Attack the elf in her hand and make it too busy to let it escape the yard. "
The tree man originally wanted to kick the house and the fence and escape from the inner courtyard, but when he walked over there, the slaves attacked the elves in his hand from there, some shot with bows and arrows, and some threw stones. Attacks in all directions made it tired to respond.
The lighter was ready soon. Ralph picked up a wine barrel and tossed it out. The barrel cracked on the treeman and got a leg wet. The other slaves also learned how to throw a barrel of oil and wine into the tree. People.
The tree man's body was too big, even if it blocked several barrels, most of them still hit it.
Ralph lit a torch, waved it in his hand, "Elf woman, you listen, I know your consciousness is still in this broken tree, surrender quickly, otherwise a fire will come down, you will not even be gray The rest. Do n’t you want to protect these women? Are you going to burn them alive here? "
The tree man rolled his eyes, glanced condescendingly at Ralph, and then looked farther away.
Elena, who was raised in the sky, pleaded: "Shalil, stop. You have done enough for us. Leave us behind, and you will go back to the Elven Forest."
The tree man didn't answer. From its height, it saw a lot of people coming from a distance, staring at him dumbfounded outside the wall of the yard.

Xiao Chen led people into the village of the Oaks family, and before he entered the inner courtyard, he heard that it was very lively, and then suddenly a big tree grew out of the wall. Its height exceeds the roof and the surrounding wall, and it is also very clear from the outside. This made Xiao Chen a little overwhelmed, and the scene in front of him somewhat exceeded his cognition.
"It seems that something extraordinary happened inside." Xiao Chen stopped his team and asked Roger: "Have you seen anything like this?"
Roger shook his head and said: "No, but I think this should be a tree man. There is no such thing in the human kingdom. Legend has it that only elf casters can control them."
"You mean, there are elf spellcasters and slaves fighting?" Xiao Chen suddenly remembered the convoy of slaves who met here in the morning, and there was a powerful wizard in him. Could it be her?
At this moment, Shuren's eyes suddenly looked at Xiao Chen. Those eyes are two light spots in the sunken body of the tree. They look like two small lamps. Although it is still daytime, it is very clear.
Xiao Chen hadn't seen the tree man, but the flash of light gave him a familiar feeling, like the narrow eyes under the cloak in the morning.
"Human magician, can I believe you?" Xiao Chen's heart sounded an anxious but anxious female voice. Xiao Chen felt that if a face was given to this voice, it must be a beautiful face.
"Who is talking to me?" He immediately understood that this is a magical magic that can directly communicate the hearts of two people.
"I'm in front of you, you are watching me."
"Shuren?" Xiao Chen was quite surprised, this voice and image are too contrasting.
"Yes. I want to entrust the five elves to your care. Please send them home. The elven kingdom will pay you enough."
"Why choose me?"
"It's not that I believe in you, but that these robbers who besieged me left me no other choice. The mage's credibility ... maybe more worth looking forward to than the mercenaries."
Xiao Chen had long noticed that there were five elves in Shuren's hands, and they were being besieged by the people below. He thought about it and roughly guessed the situation here. He replied without hesitation: "I can guarantee that my people will not infringe them, and send them back at my convenience. In addition, there is no more commitment. You insist, we will rush in soon ... … "
"It's too late ... to guard them, you will be rewarded ... if you ruin your promises, you will bear the anger of the entire elven kingdom."
"You're so welcome ..."
The vines on the tree man suddenly twisted towards the five elves, entangled with each other and turned into a rattan ball, wrapping the elves like a cage.
Shuren held up the sepak takraw, suddenly made a throwing action, and threw the five elf sepak takraw to Xiao Chen.
"Catch them." Xiao Chen shouted, Roger and others hurriedly luck, and six or seven people together to catch Sepak Takraw. The takraw shriveled as soon as it fell to the ground, revealing the dizzy elves inside.
Roger cautiously lifted the elves sitting on the ground, and there was a series of wails around him.
It's really beautiful, Xiao Chen also had to praise it. The elves have a good reputation. Although there are many differences with the appearance of human beings, this difference gives them an exotic style that has never been seen before. In front of them, these elves can be described as Chunlan Qiuju, each has its own merits, especially the one who stood up first, has a charm that instantly grabs people's hearts.
The first thing after the elf stood up was to pounce on Xiao Chen.
"Mr. Master, please help Shariil! She is going to be burnt to death."
"Are you injured? The body is full of blood!" Xiao Chen saw half of her yellow robe stained red.
"That's not my blood. Go and rescue Shari'el. It's too late." Elena grabbed Xiao Chen's arm.
"Who is Sally? It was the tree man who spoke to my soul and asked me to protect you."
"Shalil is the tree man who secretly talks to you. The mob has poured oil on her. Please hurriedly open the door and stop them. Please!" Elena's tears were on her cheeks. In sadness, Xiao Chen's heart involuntarily showed sympathy.
Xiao Chen patted her with her hands, and said to Roger: "Quick, bring all your good hands, break the door of the yard, and take me the guys who besieged the treemen."
Roger took five or six grudge warriors as the vanguard, took thirty or forty strong men, picked up wooden pillars and stones that could smash the door, and rushed towards the inner courtyard.
But when he led the crowd to open the inner door, he saw that Ralph and his men threw more than a dozen torches on the tree, the oil and wine were ignited, and several fire snakes climbed from bottom to top. In a moment, the tree-man's body ignited a blaze.
