Seeing the Pegasus suddenly appearing in front of them, everyone immediately subconsciously took two steps back and watched it vigilantly. It's no wonder that Pegasi are a very rare sacred beast, and it is rumored that they only live in the Elven Forest, and only Elves are qualified to be their riders, which is not like the relationship between humans who domesticate war horses, but more like an equal relationship between comrades-in-arms. In the past, it was not without humans trying to tame Pegasi, but when they tried to get a few Pegasi from the Elven Forest in various ways to try to tame, they would be met with strong resistance from the Pegasi, and eventually those Pegasi would either run away or commit suicide. As a result, after a long day of hard work, the Pegasus was not domesticated, but instead provoked protests and warnings from the elves and the church, which can be said to have lost the lady and the soldiers. So after this repeatedly, no one wanted to tame these holy beasts anymore. And Pegasi itself only lives in the Elven Forest, and for humans in the outside world, this winged sacred beast is indeed a rare and rare thing.

Anne and Lijie paid attention to the white holy beast in front of them, but Rhodes set their eyes on the slender figure that jumped off the back of the Pegasus, most of the elves were beautiful and graceful, but the elf in front of them went one step further, and more importantly, for Rod, this elf was not unfamiliar...............

"Long time no see, Mr. Rhodes."

Looking at this figure in front of her, Corinna's heart was mixed, on the way here, her mood was very complicated, on the one hand, the experience and feelings of fighting against the demon Grand Duke together were not so easy to disappear. On the other hand, Rod's bad rumors and style made her very entangled. Even on the way here, Corinna secretly hoped that it was just a coincidence, but unfortunately, in the end, her prayer could not be fulfilled.

"Hello, Miss Corinna."

Rod wasn't as much as Corinna thought. Anyway, he asked himself that he didn't do anything to be sorry for the elves, and he had no grudges with the country of law, coupled with the good cooperative relationship between himself and the church, the elves should not throw any face at him. The only thing that surprised Rod was that Corinna would come out to greet her in person——— maybe because she was relatively familiar with her when she was in the Soragon Mountains, so she was sent?

Looking at Rod's expressionless face, Corinna couldn't help but sigh deep in her heart. Now, when she saw her, Corinna realized that she was not prepared at all, and she didn't even know what to say to Rod. Should I ask him for any explanation for the rumors about him out there? Of course Corinna wouldn't do that, but looking at the expressionless Rhodes in front of her, she always felt as if something was stuck in her heart.

However, as a powerhouse in the legendary realm, Corinna naturally did not let these negative emotions affect her, and the expression on her face did not even change in the slightest. With a soft smile like a spring wind, he slowly walked in front of Rod and the others.

"Frankly, when I learned about it, I wondered if I had heard it wrong......... Mr. Rhodes, welcome to the Elven Forest, if you can, I want to know, is there anything important about your coming to the Elven Forest this time? ”

Speaking of which. Corinna rolled her emerald eyes and looked at Rod. vaguely revealed a bit of anticipation. And Rod didn't notice Corinna's eyes, and in the face of the elf girl's inquiry, Rod only nodded slightly to confirm.

"That's right, Miss Corinna, I have a very important business going to the Elven Forest this time............" he said. Rhodes paused, hesitating to tell the truth. Although he didn't quite understand why these two short swords had something to do with the holy land of the elves, since this was a road, he had to take a walk anyway. With Rod's ability, he can make up a lie and enter the Elven Forest. It wasn't that difficult to sneak into the Holy Land and then take the opportunity to sneak in, but after thinking about it, he still rejected the idea. If the other party is changed to the country of light, Rhodes will definitely have no pressure, and he may even kill people by the way. But the country of law has always had a good reputation among players, and he can't afford to cause any trouble for himself, and the holy land of the elves is not as important as the holy land of humans, but more of a spiritual position. If you tell the truth, there should be no problem.

“……… Yes, Miss Corinna, though presumptuous, I hope to be able to enter the Holy White Valley of the Elven Forest and investigate some very important matters. ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Rod's answer, Corinna's eyes widened in surprise, she just looked at Rod like that, and she didn't know what to say for a while. At the same time, the Moon Elf Maiden let out a long sigh in her heart, and she didn't know whether it was because of peace of mind or disappointment. But what she was thinking at the moment didn't matter, what was more important was what she had just heard.

"What do you mean, Mr. Rod......... You're heading to the Holy Land? ”

"Yes, Miss Corinna."

In the face of Corinna's rhetorical question, Rod's expression did not change, he raised his head like that, and met the girl's scrutinizing gaze without the slightest wavering. On the contrary, Corinna is extremely puzzled in her heart at the moment, it is not for nothing that the Holy White Valley is the holy land of the elves, there are the heroes of the elves who sleep, they have all made their own contributions to the continuation and prosperity of the elves, so after their deaths, they will be buried in the Holy White Valley, the place blessed by the soul of the creation dragon, and the souls of those heroes will always be blessed and sleep peacefully in the arms of nature. It is precisely because of this that the Holy White Valley is called the holy land of the elves, and in order not to disturb the sleep of those sleeping souls, most of the elves will not go there without permission, only on some specific festival occasions, they will enter the Holy White Valley to pay tribute to the ancestors who sacrificed everything for the elves.

But that's just it. If the Valley of the Holy White has a special meaning for elves, it has little meaning for humans. And Corinna didn't think that Rhodes would have anything to do with those elven ancestors. But now he is asking to enter the Holy White Valley?

This requirement is simple and simple, and it is not simple to say that it is not simple. The simple thing is that the Holy White Valley is not as heavily guarded as the so-called holy places of the human race, and only people with special status can enter it. As long as Rhodes promised that he would not desecrate the soul sleeping in the Holy Land, then it was okay for him to go in and have a look. But on the other hand, a human has to enter the holy land of the elves. This will inevitably not make the other elves have any bad thoughts. Although elves do not hate humans very much, because of the differences between the cultural customs and habits of the two sides, many elves are wary and uneasy about the existence of humans. Now, if Rhodes were allowed to enter the holy land of the elves, it would be hard to guarantee that no elves would be disgusted and do something to Rhodes. And judging from the information about Rhodes that Corinna has collected, the human in front of her is definitely not a kind and gentle person.........

"This thing ....................."

Come to think of it. Corinna frowned, after returning to the Elven Forest, the Moon Elf Maiden did not become the head of the Pegasus Knights as Rhodes thought, but became the commander of the royal elven guard under Her Majesty the Elven Queen, and she had enough power to confirm whether a human was eligible to enter the Elven Forest. If Rod had just come here to see the customs or catch up on the old days, Corinna would still have nodded in agreement. But this matter is too sensitive, and she can't make decisions on her own.

"Mr. Rod, if you don't mind, I'd like to ask. What is it important for you to enter the Holy White Valley? I think you should be well aware that the status of the Holy White Valley in the hearts of the elves, although not as grand as the human temple, is also irreplaceable. You, as a human being, have come to enter the Valley of the Holy White........."

Corinna hadn't finished her words, but Rhodes had understood what she meant. But Rhodes did not change, because he had settled in the valley of St. White. Greeting Corinna now is nothing more than saluting first and then soldiering, and if Corinna is willing to let herself into the Holy White Valley, then naturally everything is easy to say. If Corinna doesn't want to, then Rhodes will find another opportunity to sneak in, although I'm a little sorry for Corinna. But Rod and Corinna are not familiar enough to think of each other.

In the face of Corinna's prevarication, Rod didn't say much, instead, he reached out and pulled out two short swords from his waist. See Rod's movements. Corinna twitched her fingers reflexively, but she quickly relaxed again, because Rod was not intending to do it because of his refusal, instead, he flipped his wrist and handed the two short swords in front of him.

"That's right, Miss Corinna, these two daggers are what I have acquired before, and according to my investigation, they seem to have a very deep connection with the Valley of St. White, and that is very important to me. I can't answer how important it is, but I can assure you that it's important enough for me to take the liberty of making this request to you. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Corinna became curious, and she reached out and took the two short swords in Rod's hands.

From the very beginning, Corinna was sure that these two short swords definitely had a very deep connection with the elves, and the appearance of both short swords showed the unique delicacy and delicacy of the weapons made by the elves, whether it was the hilt carved with natural patterns or the sword body with the power of magic. And because of this, Corinna became more and more curious, because most of the elves did not use weapons such as short swords and daggers, and even the elves of long swords did not like to use them very much, because they felt that these weapons were too fierce and not harmonious enough. Therefore, the general standard weapon of the elves is the rapier, which is exquisite, not very lethal, and not easy to see blood, so most of the elves, whether they are rangers or mages, like to carry a rapier as a melee weapon.

Among the elves, the only ones who wielded swords in a structured way were the Queen's Elven Guards, but their swords were forged from crystal glass, not steel.

At this time, Corinna could understand Rod's feelings, because she herself began to wonder which elf the two short swords came from, after all, in Corinna's memory, she did not remember any famous elf who used short swords as weapons. And if Rod's investigation is correct, then what else in the Valley of St. White is overlooked and forgotten?

"I see."

Thinking of this, Corinna hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"I have already felt the sincerity of Mr. Rhodes, but after all, the stakes are high, and now I can only say that I can't decide for myself, please come with me. Mr. Rod, there are three ........." Saying this, Corinna's gaze swept over the little mermaid in the water balloon suspended behind Rod, and looked at her curiously and intently, I have to admit that the little mermaid has such a strange appearance. No matter where it is, it's enough to get the attention of others. “……… Three young ladies, I will guide you into the Elven Forest, but please obey the rules of the Elves. As for the matter of the Holy White Valley, I will first report to Her Majesty the Queen, and if Her Majesty agrees to your request, then Mr. Rod, you can enter the Holy White Valley. ”

"No problem."

Hearing Corinna's answer, Rod nodded, and from his expression he couldn't tell that he was dissatisfied. And see Rod's reaction. Corinna breathed a sigh of relief, she smiled at the group, and then returned the two daggers to Rod, and then reached out to stroke the Pegasi beside her, and with the Moon Elf Maiden's touch, the Pegasus shook her neck in comfort, and then turned around and walked towards the depths of the forest. Corinna also turned sideways. He made an inviting gesture to the crowd.

"Welcome to the Forest of the Elves, everyone."

From the surface. The Elven Forest doesn't seem to be much different from other forests, it is full of dense shrubs, vines, sunlight spilling through the gaps in the leaves, bringing rays of light, and the fresh blades of grass exude a fresh sound. Birds chirping can be heard everywhere. All this looks no different from an ordinary forest, but only when you walk into it and experience it yourself, you will notice that they are two completely different feelings——— the moment Rod and the others walk into the forest, they only feel a breeze coming towards them. Immediately afterwards, the exhaustion and soreness in their bodies left their bodies like dust blown away by the wind. Not only that, but an indescribable sense of stability, serenity, and harmony pervades all around, and just standing here makes it seem as if everything between heaven and earth has completely stopped, and even the chirping of birds and the footsteps of walking seem to be shrouded in a veil and become indistinct. In such an environment, almost everyone will involuntarily quiet down, listening to the breath of nature——— but Anne is an exception, perhaps because it is too peaceful, so that the girl began to open her mouth and yawn not long after entering the forest, as if she hadn't slept for several days, but because of this, the girl at this moment can only slowly follow behind everyone, yawning and rubbing her eyes, looking at her sleepy appearance, Rod was really skeptical that she would just go to sleep like that.

As for Lijie and the little mermaid, they looked around curiously, admiring the beautiful scenery of the Elven Forest, perhaps it was the temperament of the Elves that infected this forest, making the trees and flowers here just look like they have a soft and elegant atmosphere.

It doesn't seem like Rhodes is angry.

While leading the way for everyone, Corinna was also secretly observing Rod on the other side, he was still the same, expressionless. In fact, after the battle in the mountains of Soragon, when Rod's true face was exposed in front of Corinna, the Moon Elf girl also muttered in private for a while, because Rod was always expressionless, which made the Moon Elf girl wonder if he had any opinions about himself, and only later heard from other mercenaries in the fortress that it was normal for this young man to be expressionless, and once he laughed, it was a precursor to danger.

Corinna didn't know how credible these words were, but now that Rod was walking in front with an expressionless face, and the three girls behind him didn't care about him, I thought it should be true.

The reason for this decision was because of Corinna's selfish intentions, and she felt that it was impossible for Her Majesty the Queen to approve Rod's request. But in any case, the other party is always a "comrade-in-arms" when facing the demon Grand Duke with him, and it is always bad to refuse directly, so simply invite him to enter the Elven Forest, just as to satisfy his little curiosity.

If Corinna knew that Dao Rhodes would have to enter the Holy Land regardless of whether she would agree or not, then I am afraid that this would not be the case.

On the contrary, if Corina had not led everyone to a clearing, which looked fairly level, and told them that this was the gathering place of the elves, Lijie and Anne would have thought that this was just an ordinary wild clearing, and there were no traces of man-made man-made around it, only dense vines and shrubs, green trees, and streams flowing into the lake, everything seemed so natural that there was no human habitation at all.

"Please wait here for a while, and I'll report to Your Majesty immediately."

After saying this to Rod, Corinna was about to turn away, and at this moment, suddenly, a crisp birdsong sounded, and then a hundred birds in the forest suddenly chirped, connecting into a beautiful hymn. Hearing the bird's call, Corinna's face changed slightly, she frowned, was silent for a moment, and then turned to look at Rod.

"Mr. Rhodes, Your Majesty the Queen, please." (To be continued.) )
