Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1443 Pretentious or Secret
At this time, the Northland has already entered late autumn, and on the vast Langas Plain, except for some evergreen plants, the rest is covered with withered yellow.

There are also sparse withered and yellow weeds around the open space that Xia Duo discovered, but this small open space, less than two meters in diameter, reveals a hint of greenness.

It seems that some weeds are still struggling to continue the last sliver of summer heat, refusing to let themselves enter the golden autumn mode. If this is the case in a large area, it is not a big deal.

After all, even evergreen plants can exist, not to mention some late-drying weeds!
But here, it is obvious that only a small circular open space has a hint of green in the withered yellow. Even if there is no detection spell instruction, if Xia Duo sees this place directly, he will think that there is something abnormal here.

As for what the abnormality is, there is almost no need to think about it, Xia Duo thought of the most likely situation——

There have been elves here!
As a human who has projected elves many times and has a deep understanding of elves, Xia Duo is very aware of certain characteristics of elves.

For example, when they are in their own country, most elves are generally not too contrived, but once outside, facing the so-called "lower races", they will immediately show a different style from ordinary things .

Among them, the most well-known one among Nether people is that "elves only eat fruits that grow now", because they are out of the house and in front of human beings, how can they behave like human beings?

When Xia Duo first crossed over, he saw a few elves go to Old Neil's inn to buy food, and they cast a large-scale cleaning spell as the first step after entering the door.

Then on the side of the green vine tribe, it is not incomprehensible for an elf to deliberately reflect a little life under his feet because he is in a scene where everything is withering.

As for why the elves appeared on the territory of the Langas, Xia Duo actually didn't think it was that strange.

In fact, almost all large tribes of Langas people have more or less contact with elves, because there are orcs on the Langas plains, and a large number of orcs will rush out of the western mountains every few years.

That is, the tide of orcs.

If there were no elves—of course mainly Yerlan—supporting behind, the Langas Plain might have been occupied by orcs long ago.

Anyway, Xia Duo should be clear, if there are no special circumstances, it is unlikely that the people from Naise will take the initiative to rescue here.

In the past, when Netheril and Yeerlan had a close relationship, they had been invited by Yeerlan to reinforce Langas together.

The establishment of Zenith City, one of Netheril's most important strongholds in the northern Langas Plain, is also related to this.

In short, it is not uncommon for elves to appear in the Langas tribe, but at this critical moment, some elves appear in the Green Vine tribe, which has to arouse Xia Duo's association.

Autumn has come, if there is a wave of orcs this year, there should be a sign, but Xia Duo has not heard anything related to this from Maka, the patriarch of the Gray Eagle tribe.

The Gray Eagle tribe did not make any preparations related to the orc wave. This can only explain one thing, the elves came because of something other than the orc wave.

Maybe it's a bit far-fetched, but Xia Duo can't think of any other possibility besides targeting himself.

It can't be that the elves are visiting relatives in the Green Vine Tribe, right?
It's just why the elves want to target themselves?
Xia Duo can basically be sure that the elf should be the Ye'erlan elf, but he and Ye'erlan have no grudges in the past, and have no enmity in the past, so he targets himself in this way, unless some of his actions touch the other's sensitive nerves.

"Is it because of the Gray Eagle tribe?"

Xia Duo felt that he was getting closer and closer to the truth, but he always had a doubt in his heart, why did the elves attach so much importance to the Rangas, or why did they attach so much importance to the Gray Eagle Tribe?
When I gathered the Kadun tribe before, I didn't see any reaction from those big tribes, or did they react only when they involved big tribes?

But it doesn't make sense, there are so many Langas people, it's nothing to lose a few big tribes, even if Ye Erlan needs Langas to share the pressure of the orc tide, there is no need to do so.

In fact, for Ye Erlan, the orc wave is not a fatal crisis, it can only be regarded as a disease of mange, even if Ye Erlan can deal with it all by himself, it is not difficult.

Xia Duo thought about it, but couldn't think of the reason why the elves valued the Langas.

But half of his teleportation gate has been built, and the Gray Eagle Tribe has already eaten it up, so do you still want to spit it out?

If this situation is let go, I am afraid that the reputation of Daxia leader in Langas Plain will be discredited in the future, and no big tribe will want to move closer to him.

Especially if the Gray Eagle Tribe is still wiped out because of this.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo decided to take a trip to the Green Vine Tribe. On the one hand, he had a closer look at the current situation of the Green Vine Tribe, and on the other hand, he wanted to find the elves behind them.

Of course, Xia Duo could just bring back the people from the Gray Eagle tribe in such a desperate manner, but in the future, as long as he wants to continue recruiting people in the Langas Plain, he still has to face today's scene.

The elf can let him steal the chicken once, but can he steal the chicken again and again?Maybe it's just stealing chickens and losing money!

Instead of dragging the problem to the back and making it more serious, it is better to solve it in advance, and solve it openly!
So, early the next morning, Xia Duo called Maca back to the Gray Eagle Tribe.

……

Ancestral Spirit Hall, in front of the altar.

More than a dozen hunting leaders and warrior leaders of the Gray Eagle tribe were talking in low voices with worried faces——

"What important announcement do you think the patriarch has to make? It's more important than dealing with the hunting of several big tribes. When we are so nervous, we must be called to the Ancestral Spirit Hall?"

"Yesterday the patriarch prayed to the ancestral spirit for a day, maybe there is some result!"

"What can be the result? We have ancestor spirits, and those big tribes also have ancestor spirits, alas!"

"Perhaps it has something to do with the Nether lord yesterday. The patriarch's attitude towards those Nether merchants was very unusual before. Is it really like what those people said, the tribe will take us to join the Nether people?"

As soon as these words came out, the Ancestral Spirit Hall fell silent instantly, and no one spoke for a long time.

Discussing this topic in the Ancestral Spirit Hall is somewhat sensitive, and some people even look nervously at the top of the hall, as if there is a pair of eyes staring at them at any time.

Not long after, a group of shamans wearing feather ornaments, animal robes, and bone staffs came in quietly from outside. The arrival of these people made the atmosphere in the already quiet hall even more dignified.

Later, the great shaman and the patriarch also came in. The arrival of these two people eased the atmosphere a lot, but when Xia Duo also appeared at the entrance of the hall, the atmosphere in the hall froze again.
