Soul Echo

After a night of rest, Zhong Ye and the others drove away from Blois Castle.

Blois count kept him again and again, but Zhong Ye made up his mind to leave, so he didn't stay for a few more days, and took Lillian and the others on the journey again.

The glass jar was packed in a suitcase filled with rags and cotton and placed under Lillian's seat.

"Next, are we going to the territory in the middle of the kingdom?"

Lily Lieber unfolded the map in front of her, the ones mentioned by Blois count earlier. A noble domain has been marked by Zhong Ye.

The closest territory to Blois is 'Dupois', which, according to the name, should be a territory with abundant tree resources - of course, it may have been owned before.

This town is not far from Blois, and if they are calculated at their previous speed...it only takes about two days to reach that territory.

"Then, are we going to track the whereabouts of Nemo's paintings and those 'painted skins'?"

Lily's voice came from the carriage, Zhong Ye Nodding, he said: "No matter what kind it is, it will bring great trouble to human society. The threat they can pose to human beings is no less than that of cultists. All of them must be found out and then eliminated."

After he finished speaking, he silently added in his heart: Whether it is for here or for Earth.

…………

On the road for about three days, Zhong Ye and the others came to Dupois.

This is because there is a river blocking their way on the road, and they have to go around for a long time before they find a stone bridge that allows the carriage to pass.

It took some time on the road to arrive at Dupois.

This territory is not just in name only, but also in reality, except around human settlements, all other places are covered by forests.

Because it only snowed yesterday, the branches were covered with snow.

The weight of this snow packs the branches down, causing the icicles hanging under the branches on the verge of collapse.

The wild animals living in this area seem to have adapted to such an environment, hiding in their dens and refusing to come out regardless of whether it is snowing heavily or not.

Zhong Ye let go of his perception and could feel that there were many small animals hiding in some tree holes and ground holes, but they did not choose to go out for food.

Walking in such a zone is extremely dangerous.

If the wind is stronger and the cold wind blows, the ice will fall. Sometimes, the ice will be blown by the strong wind and fly obliquely to the road.

It is also Zhong Ye boldness of execution stems from superb skill. Ordinary people walking on this road may not even save their own lives.

Dupois is surrounded by forests, however, they did not cut down these dangerous trees.

There are many trees in the forest that are very old at a glance. In other places, these trees have long been surrounded by nobles and used to make furniture, build houses or build boats. didn't do that.

On the way to Dupois, Zhong Ye had already guessed, and when he entered Dupois, the sight in front of him further confirmed his guess.

There is a tree planted in front of every house in this town, and the species of trees vary.

apart from this, every household's house materials are stone, soil and the like, and wood is rarely used.

After arriving at Dupois's adventurer's house, Lily and Lily's doubts were lifted.

——It turns out that Dupois is a rare town in human society, where the mainstream belief is the father of nature.

Lily suddenly realized, "In simple terms, this is a 'Druid' city."

Lillian also understood at this time, this town can make people change jobs Become a 'Druid'.

The news streamed from her live broadcast also caused a discussion in the forum - 'Druid' is a more traditional profession in many RPG games, "Soul Echo" is impossible, but not People just figure out how to change jobs.

The town that Lilian discovered now may have the inheritance of 'Druids'!

But after discovering this, people started to wonder again.

Isn't anyone born in 'Dipois'? If so, why has no news been leaked before?

As a part of the Gallic kingdom, although the mainstream belief of Dupois is the father of nature, this place also has lords.

And that lord was the target Zhong Ye and the others were looking for.

Before Zhong Ye left, the Blois count helped him prepare some letters of introduction. Just give these letters of introduction to the nobles. If the noble is willing to sell the Blois count for a face, they will I can see that noble.

And in fact, it is.

Zhong Ye and the others came to Dupois's lord's mansion and handed the letter of introduction to Dupois Baron's men, and they met Baron successfully.

Although Dupois Baron knew that the person who wanted to meet him was 'Zhong Ye', the legendary 'doorbreaker', but the letter of introduction was also handwritten by Blois count, and he recognized it. Write out the handwriting of the count.

This also means that Blois count has met Zhong Ye and survived!

Depois Baron believes that he has no problems, neither believes in Evil God nor uses hallucinogens, and usually has no other bad habits except for a 'slight' extravagance.

If so, it shouldn't have anything to do with cultists or Evil God...

Therefore, Dipois Baron chose to meet with Zhong Ye.

At Dipois Baron, Zhong Ye learned that the painting in his hand had already been sold, two months after Nemo was identified as a 'cult'.

It is also because he sold his collection at a low price and failed to recover the cost, he complained to Blois count about it.

And he himself, examined by the clergy, had nothing in him that could relate to Evil God.

The nobleman who took over the painting he sold was located in 'Valensay', a city southeast of Dupois.

Although I couldn't find Nemo's painting, I also knew the whereabouts of a painting, which was a goal of my trip.

After leaving the Baron mansion in Dipois, Zhong Ye returned to the adventurer's house to let Lily and the others have a good rest, and then carried the suitcase to the temple of the Father of Nature.

The Temple of the God of Nature is located outside the city, and before entering the temple, Zhong Ye felt a lot of eyes converge on him. He paused, stood in place, and returned his gaze one after another.

Those who were hiding in the dark came out of the woods, knowing they had been discovered.

Clad in leaves, hides, and carrying sticks, they look very primordial.

They are druids, they are the guardians of nature - of course, there are many of them who are not enough to be called 'Druids', they do not deserve this title, only druids A member of the sect, equivalent to the apprentice.

Zhong Ye stood in front of the temple door, did not go in, opened the suitcase on the spot, and exposed the contents to the eyes of many druids.

Without waiting for these disciples of the Father of Nature to ask, he told them the details of the black mist in the glass jar.

Watching their expressions gradually change from indifference to solemnity, when they heard 'maybe creating an altar that erodes the natural environment', they became even more furious.

From beginning to end, Zhong Ye didn't talk to them, just talking about each minding their own business.

But he knew very well that these druids had listened to what he said and remembered it deeply.

——They are the guardians of nature, and they will definitely not give up in the face of a group of monsters that can erode the natural environment.

After finishing speaking, Zhong Ye put away the gas tank, and even if the Druid made a sound of retention, he did not stop to leave.

He has said everything that needs to be said, and he doesn't know more. Even if he stays, he has nothing to say.

He doesn't like these druids very much, although it seems that these druids can already be regarded as 'moderates' in the druid sect, but since they do not accept the appearance of handmade products Know that they are also 'radical' in the face of human civilization developed by industry.

Therefore, he didn't intend to talk to them, it would be useless.
