Clinging to the Witcher world to become a god of martial arts

Just as Lorne was about to tell the others that Lady Elena was a Kenlar elf, he looked up and met Lauren's reproachful gaze.

The impulse in my heart involuntarily subsided and dissipated.

What good would it do to tell them?

Nina is right. Whatever Lady Elena's purpose is, she can genuinely offer a high-grade magic crystal.

In the face of money, any explanation seems rather weak.

"I can now create runes. Once I've accumulated enough magic crystals, I'll give each of you a high-grade magic crystal free of charge."

Lorne stated bluntly, "Please abandon the idea of ​​obtaining the Tears of the Elves."

Lauren and Nina remained silent, but Rudolph's eyes flickered, as if he were deep in thought.

Soon, Rudolf smiled with relief:

"Lorne, you are our comrade. Since you say so, then we can only give up this bounty."

He patted Lorne on the shoulder warmly.

Why has he become so agreeable? Lorne felt something was off.

This includes the fact that several people specifically entered this folded space to find themselves.

When elemental turmoil occurs in fire elemental zones, people don't care about themselves; they see you as a burden that can be easily discarded...

Rudolph gave Lorne a big hug.

Lorne shook his head, interrupting his thoughts.

Why always speculate whether others have ulterior motives? At least they are willing to spend time and energy and care about their own lives.

Before taking actual action, sometimes whether or not there is a purpose is not so important.

"There should be wizards everywhere in this elven settlement, right?" Rudolf released Lorne and peered into the poplar grove.

A sense of unease rose in Lorne's heart, and he did not answer the question.

"Let's go." He waved to the group and disappeared into the bushes.

The next step is to go to Soderion to negotiate...

As they traversed the thicket, Lorne reminded the group, "Once we enter the settlement, do not mention the Kenlar tribe or the Tears of the Elves."

"You only entered this folded space to find me," he added.

Perhaps because we weren't particularly familiar with each other to begin with, and hadn't seen each other for a long time, the atmosphere along the way was somewhat subdued.

When Lauren entered the fire elemental zone, she chatted with Lorne and explained his questions.

Rudolf was very arrogant and used to disregard Lorne's thoughts, treating him as an outsider.

Nina is usually not very talkative.

The slight changes left Lorne momentarily at a loss as to how to talk to the group.

The group quickly arrived at the edge of the poplar grove.

A few male elves who were taking a stroll stopped and turned to look in their direction.

Previously, just Lorne's intrusion had already provoked a strong reaction from these guys, and now there are three more of them.

They recognize Lorne; the patriarch mentioned it during his speech.

Seeing the group of four swaggering into the settlement, he was puzzled but didn't pay much attention.

It's not something I should worry about.

As they ventured deeper into the poplar forest, more and more strange looks were focused on Lorne and his companions.

"They're just ordinary guys." As the elf sized up the group, Lauren's gaze also lingered on them.

"Aren't there any wizards in the settlement?" Rudolf thought of Lorne's earlier silence.

"Yes," Lorne said, referring to Sodrion. "The Elven chieftain is a full-fledged wizard."

"It's not something we can fight against." Lorne knew Rudolf's inner turmoil.

"The spatial folding array was set up by it."

If the elves of the Kenlar tribe are all ordinary, there are no wizards among them.

Knowing Rudolf as Lorne does, he'll definitely try to obtain the Tears of the Elves.

Bringing out Soderion at this point would be a good choice to dissuade him from his idea.

After crossing a vine bridge, the group quickly arrived at the cabin where Lorne had been imprisoned.

Mia stood anxiously at the door, holding a pale blue low-level starlight potion.

Lorne understood the little guy's concerns.

It is currently the only one in the settlement that knows the coordinates of the folded space have been exposed.

For the Kenlar people, who live in a precarious situation, this is a terrifying thing.

Mia was able to remain calm only because of her trust in Lorne.

"Brother Lorne," Mia handed Lorne a low-grade Starlight Potion, "when are we going to see Grandpa Chief?"

Low-grade Starshine Potion is a pale blue solution with silver specks floating in it, resembling a sky full of stars.

Lorne opened the leather bag and laboriously stuffed in three bottles of low-level Starshine Potion.

The leather bag wasn't very big, and it was filled with a lot of things, so there wasn't enough space.

Only after filling the low-level Starshine Potion did I begin to think about finding Sodrion.

They couldn't bring Rudolf and the others along, otherwise it would be hard to explain, but they also couldn't let the group wander around the settlement freely.

"Your Highness, take me to Mr. Leodan."

As the settlement's chief guard, Leodan was the best person to keep an eye on them.

"Once Brother Lorne has settled his companions in, we'll go find Grandpa Chieftain." Lorne took Mia's little hand.

Then he turned to Rudolf, who was observing their surroundings, and said, "Let's go."

"Hmm," Rudolf replied softly.

"Where are we going now?" Lauren couldn't help but ask Lorne.

"I'm sorry to trouble you for a while," Lorne said apologetically. "I'll explain what happened to the elven chieftain after I've finished speaking with him."

The others didn't speak and silently followed Lorne.

Cross the rope bridge and the flower corridor, then walk forward for about several tens of meters.

There was a tall oak tree and a small wooden house next to it.

Mia went ahead to find Leodan and explain the situation.

"Why not just leave?" Lauren was reluctant; he knew the coordinates of the entrance and exit.

"It will be in two weeks..."

Lauren.

Lauren wanted to say something more, but Rudolph interrupted her.

Rudolf stroked his beard, deep in thought.

Will anything happen in two weeks? Lorne felt that the group was acting mysteriously.

It's as if there's something I don't know.

That's normal, considering I've been out of touch for so long, and it's been more than ten days since I left the Black Sun Tower.

The group did not have to wait long.

Leodan led Mia out of the cabin, his face grave.

Mia must have already explained the whole story to it...

"I must personally inform the clan chief," Leodan said to Lorne, still quite worried.

"Let me explain to Mr. Sodrion," Lorne said, already getting up. "I'll leave my companion in your care."

His main goal was to grasp Soderion's attitude as soon as possible so that he could make preparations in advance.

"Dad," Mia said, pulling her hand away from Leodan's, "I'm going with Brother Lorne."

Before long, Lorne and Mia ran off, leaving Leodan and Rudolph as the three of them.

"Hello, my name is Leodan." Leodan, unusually, politely extended his hand and greeted everyone first.

"Rudolph." Rudolph greeted her with a smile, his gaze gently falling on Nina.

Their eyes met, their gazes clashing in mid-air...
