Chapter 690: Driving the tiger away from the mountain
"Kulinas, do you think they'll take action?"

"I don't think so, but you never know."

In a corner of the last city, the City of Watchers, two elven elders responsible for 'protecting' Celia and Elena are chatting idly.

The Elf King did not allow Celia or Elena to arrange the route for clearing the beast tide, but instead let the Elf Royal Court make the arrangements.

This arrangement, except for those cities with more urgent needs, is all to prevent Celia and Elena from running away.

Especially the last one, Watchtower City is located to the west of the Elven territory, and is surrounded by Elven territory except for the sea. It is very difficult to leave the Elven territory.

However, since Celia was assassinated in Watchtower City last time, and Elena also disappeared there, choosing this city as the last city was not only because the beast tide here was less intense and stronger, but also because of some other special factors.

Cantia thought of the time when Elena took advantage of Celia's assassination and disappearance, and she felt that this might have been arranged by the Elf King to give her a chance to make amends.

"No matter what, this time, I will absolutely not let Elena disappear, and the same goes for Miss Xi."

Cantia said firmly.

"Don't worry, I don't think they have that chance."

"Yes, after leaving this city, we will return to the capital. If they want to, they shouldn't leave at this time. This is the time when we should be most vigilant."

"Are we on high alert? Not really, everyone else is pretty relaxed."

"Are we letting our guard down and deliberately creating a false impression for them?"

"Hahaha."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Just then, other people sent messages.

They left quietly.

When Cantia saw the message, she looked up and exchanged a smile with Culinas.

"It seems they couldn't resist after all."

"Let's go, let's see how they're going to 'escape'."

The two left and quickly rejoined the others.

"How did they go? Where did they run off to?"

"They're heading towards the regular city area, and they've even set up a disguise in the room, pretending they're still there." The elder in charge of tracking them smiled. "I won't fall for such a trick."

Cantia looked somewhat uneasy.

She always felt that the elder was subtly criticizing her.

However, this is not the time to dwell on it.

After a brief discussion, the group quickly set off, flying towards Celia and Elena, who had quietly left, intending to follow them from a distance to see where they were going.

……

"Can we really escape like this?"

Elena looked at Celia beside her.

The two were rapidly advancing towards the outer city area, which was the ordinary city area.

They neither flew nor ran, but instead chose to rent a carriage.

At this moment, they had all undergone a 'simple' disguise and looked just like an ordinary elf.

This disguise is certainly not Celia's disguise technique, but rather a counterfeit disguise from Elena, which relies on external objects, such as makeup, to achieve the effect of disguise.

This kind of disguise can only deceive the eyes, not most sorcerers. Of course, if you disguise yourself while keeping everything under control and changing your behavior and style, it can still be very effective.

"We'll be there soon. Once we get here, finding me will be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Don't worry," Celia said with a smile.

"Well, I hope so."

“We can’t leave the city right away, because they might find out we’re leaving and have the city lord seal off the city gates, or have them stake out the various city gates. So, we should stay in Watchtower City for a while before leaving.”

"it is good."

Not far above, Cantia and the others used their high-level magic to completely eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.

The elders exchanged glances and smiled. "Youth is wonderful; you two are full of energy."

"However, they still underestimated us."

"Haha, I think it's because Elena successfully left last time that she thinks we sixth-tier old bones are nothing special."

"Haha, that's true."

Cantia's face darkened.

Damn it, you guys can chat, why bring me up?
Cantia had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Because Elena had successfully disappeared last time, and this time her trail had been caught so easily, she felt it was all too easy.

"Could the sounds below also be fake?"

Cantia frowned, but no matter how she tried to sense it, she could clearly feel that the two people's presence was very strong.

"An illusion? No, that can't be right. What's wrong with me? Could it just be because I was too careless last time?"

Cantia carefully recalled the last incident. At that time, her attention was on Celia, just like everyone else's, and she didn't pay attention to Elena.

At that time, the battle between Lord Monris and that shadow mage disrupted the magical fluctuations in the vicinity, which is why she lost her connection with Elena.

This time, nothing disturbed them, so it was quite normal that their locations could be easily pinpointed.

No matter how hard she tried, Candya couldn't figure out what was wrong, so she had to suppress the feeling.

Soon, they saw the carriage that Celia and Elena were riding in stopped in front of a building.

It was a hotel.

It was very inconspicuous, surrounded by ordinary bustling streets with various vendors.

Unlike other cities, Watchtower City was also attacked by the beast tide. However, because it was far away from the beast tide, only one in ten of the beast tide managed to reach it. Even if Celia did not come, Watchtower City's prosperity would have been enough to easily hold it off, though it would have required spending more money.

Celia's arrival was equivalent to saving Lord Monris a lot of money, which made him quite happy.

Therefore, the beast tide outside the city did not affect the markets and activities inside the city, and even the port was not affected and continued to operate.

Although the pollution outside has not yet been eliminated, the pollution within the city has been eliminated, and ordinary people can walk freely without worrying about being polluted.

"It seems they intend to make this their base of operations."

Culinas nodded.

“If that’s all there is to it, then we can appear before them later and ask them to go back,” an elder said.

"Well, if there's nothing else, let's go and invite them."

"Wait, there's a new situation."

The two looked over and saw that Celia and the other person had left the hotel, changed their clothes, and then gone to another hotel.

So the two of them went to five hotels and booked rooms at each one.

Celia's voice came through: "We could be in any of five places, that way they won't be able to find us."

The group exchanged glances, smiled, and then came down to stand before Celia and Elena.

"Wow, Ms. Xi, we almost couldn't find you."

Celia's expression changed: "You..."

"If Miss Xi would like us to play hide-and-seek with you, we'd be happy to oblige!"
