"How terrible must the disasters that the Elf Forest has endured be, with curses rampant and elves scarce and desolate? It's truly bleak,"
Su Ran had walked for who knows how long and had not seen a single elf. The entire forest, enveloped in mist, was eerily silent.
Using ten shield warriors as vanguards, Su Ran rode on Wang Cai, with Sand Puppets and Dark Bone Lions to protect him. Even in the event of a sudden situation, he could handle it. This was his greatest reliance on venturing alone into the Elf Forest.
"Swish, swish."
Just as Su Ran's vigilant gaze swept around, the thick tree trunks in front of him rustled their dense leaves without any wind, drawing attention in this quiet space.
"Hmm?"
Su Ran looked at the giant tree ahead in surprise and instinctively stopped.
"Something's up!"
Initially startled, Su Ran cautiously peered into the tree crown for hidden dangers but saw nothing out of the ordinary, which made him doubt whether it was just his imagination.
