Chapter 1398: Pack Up And Run“We"ve watched Vanessa grow up. I do feel a little sorry to see her become so unhappy because of her teeth. That"s why I"ve decided to help her,” Mag said calmly.
“Mm-hmm, that"s good. I"ve already had the intention to help her with it. I just had no idea how to get rid of the black stains. She really looked just like when she was young when she smiled.” Irina nodded with a smile.
Mag closed the door and sat in front of Irina. He asked, “About the elves that came back two days ago, are they still getting along fine?”
“Those who joined the Night Elves have similar experiences. They gather together for warmth, and that"s pretty good.” Irina nodded, but she still seemed a little down.
Mag got up, and told her, “I"ve just gotten the latest news about the different tribes from the Gray Temple. There"s also news about the Wind Forest. Do you want to take a look? I haven"t had the time to take a look at it yet.”
“Sure.” Irina got up and followed Mag upstairs to the study.
Mag pulled out a chest from a hidden section, and unlocked the lock on it before opening the chest.
There were eight envelopes inside, each representing the eight tribes. Under the envelopes was a smaller wooden box. The box should be the one that contained the unreleased information that Rolan had told him about.
“Information about the Wind Forest.” Mag pulled out one of the envelopes, and handed it to Irina. There should be a record of news on what happened in the Wind Forest over this period.
Irina received the envelope, and sat down in front of the study table to read the doc.u.ment.
After coming to Chaos City, her source of information was cut, and so first-hand news like this was extremely valuable.
On the night before the allied forces started their attack, most of the Night Elves would travel between the crypt and the Wind Forest via an underpa.s.s to spread the message of the Night Elves" mission. She was the most concerned about their current situation right now.
Mag pulled out the envelope on the Demon Islands, and sat down on another chair to read the doc.u.ment. He was also very curious what kind of impact their trip to the Demon Islands had on the demons.
Two hours pa.s.sed by very quickly. Mag was still reading about the comparison between the forces of the fear demons and the s.h.i.+varras. Irina was already done reading. She looked at Mag, and said, “I want to go to the Wind Forest.”
“Hm?” Mag looked up at Irina, a little surprised. “Did anything happen?”
“Helena will officially crown Sally as the Princess of the Elves and burn all the rebels they"ve caught during this period three days later,” Irina said coldly.
“The night elves?” Mag heard Irina mention that the batch of night elves who had been with her for the longest time had already gone back to the Wind Forest in preparation to rope more elves in to join the Night Elves.
“Yes. The night elves spread the message of freedom, and there are more and more elves joining the group as they feel freedom beckoning them, making the Night Elves grow in number. This has been happening in various parts of the Wind Forest like sparks ready to ignite catching on fire. Helena and the other ruling elves could already feel the threat, so they captured a batch of night elves, and labelled them as rebels to kill them to serve as a warning for the other elves,” Irina said with a nod.
“You intend to save them?” Mag was a little surprised at the rate the Night Elves had been spreading and developing. For the tiny sparks of night elves to quickly start a flame showed that the elf tribe was already rotting from the inside.
“I have to go,” Irina said with certainty.
“Alright, I"ll go with you then,” Mag said. After the breakthrough to the 9th-tier, when he had Ah Zi with him, Mag would be strong enough to protect himself. Even if he could not provide Irina with much help, at least he would be able to a.s.sert some awe.
“Mm-hm.” Irina looked at Mag and smiled a little. She did not know when she had started getting used to him accompanying her.
“Their motive this time, other than deterrence, might also be to set a trap for you. We need to be prepared before we go,” Mag said with a slight frown.
“I am stronger than they think in the Wind Forest. The Tree of Life would be on my side.” Irina appeared very relaxed.
“That"s great.” Mag was not in the least doubtful of Irina"s perception. The Tree of Life, as the Elves" sacred tree, had already been around for thousands of years. With it on Irina"s side, they should have a higher chance of winning.
Of course, there were still some preparations to be done. He had to guarantee Irina"s safety.
Mag looked at the time before going downstairs to prepare for dinner opening. The dinner opening period was the longest and busiest.
“Where"s the crayfish restaurant? How did such a huge place disappear?” Tony howled in desperation while standing at a land of ruins.
“This…” Steve was also stunned. How did the crayfish restaurant disappear in a night?
The fishermen who were on their third trip here with pails of crayfish to sell were also dumbfounded when they saw the crayfish restaurant reduced to nothing.
They wanted to make a windfall from selling the crayfish to the restaurant, but they did not expect that the crayfish restaurant would disappear today, leaving behind a pile of ruins.
“Oh no, oh no. The article that we sent out is already confirmed and printed. I reckon they are already on the way to distribution… If the article gains popularity but the crayfish restaurant is gone, do you think the readers will tear me apart?” Tony asked Steve as he grabbed the latter in a fl.u.s.ter.
Steve glanced at the pile of ruins, then back at Tony, and nodded while saying, “I suggest you should stay low for the time being.”
He could even imagine how the readers, who rushed over excitedly, would flip upon seeing this pile of ruins.
With Tony"s influence, there would definitely be many demons coming over to Carapace Island to try the food out.
“Boss Hades has done me in! He didn"t even let me know in advance that he was going to pack up and go. He"s just pus.h.i.+ng me into a fiery pit!” Tony pulled a long face and felt completely at a loss for what to do.
I am such an unlucky man.
“Why don"t you go over to Chaos City to hide for a while? When you tide over this period, I will write to you and tell you to come back,” Steve suggested.
“I guess this is the only thing I can do right now.” Tony nodded. He could already see how the customers would vent on the pile of ruins and go hysterical when they could not try the crayfish. If his readers came over as well, they"d probably vent their anger the exact same way.
“I had better not see Boss Hades ever again in my life. Otherwise, I will definitely pin him to the ground and wallop him before making him give me an explanation for all this!” Tony clenched his teeth, and turned to leave with a face full of grudge.
He had to pack up and leave.
