Chapter 997
Time passed quickly after returning to the capital. Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three days, Elena rarely spoke to Elena. Although the two did not quarrel fiercely, they inexplicably entered a cold war state.
Elena was more embarrassed and did not know how to talk to Elena. Recalling the quarrels with each other in the past, the number of times was much less than expected.
It can be said that the number can be counted on one hand. After all, Elena used to listen to Elena's words without thinking and would never do anything against Elena's wishes.
Even if he did, he would apologize immediately. Elena did not dare to go against Elena at all. It can only be said that he did have a lot more ideas now, and he was no longer so blindly obedient to Elena.
Elena probably has not recovered from her past status yet. She has been waiting for Elena to apologize on her own initiative. After all, she did so in the past.
And now Elena has an obsession, wanting Elena to recognize herself. As a brave man, she is growing every day and chasing in the direction of Elena every day.
But now Elena always treats her as a weak person, thinking that she is someone who needs to be cared for. He can't bear to let her get hurt, and hopes that she can grow up in a "greenhouse".
Although Elena is somewhat happy to be cared for by Elena, she still feels more restrained. She doesn't need to be controlled like this, and she is not the kind of person who can't live without the protection of others. She has her own independence.
But thinking back carefully, when I faced Elena, it seemed that I had always been mindless in protecting her, and never considered Elena's own ideas.
Now it can only be said that the position has changed, which also made Elena understand Elena's thoughts back then. This kind of excessive protection is indeed not a happy thing.
Before the two reconciled, Elena, who had been back for only a few days, was called away by Augustine, the king of Sorens. There were some things that needed to be discussed between him and Elena, and this matter happened to be the matter of the previous investigation of the northern forest by the brave team.
In the afternoon, Elena came to the back garden of the capital in formal attire. Augustine sat in the pavilion in the garden, holding hot tea and snacks and waiting for Elena's arrival with a smile.
Seeing Elena, Augustine directly asked the servants beside him to leave. He needed some space to talk to Elena alone. He didn't want too many people to know about today's topic.
"Tell me, what's the situation."
Elena was also very casual, without any politeness. She came over and sat directly opposite Augustine, and stuffed delicious pastries into her mouth.
"I need you to go to the northern forest to investigate there. According to our country's scout report, those strange villages seem to be related to the legendary evil god cult, and those out-of-control villagers seem to be the work of the evil god cult."
Evil God Cult
When these three words came out of Augustine's mouth, Elena's eyes couldn't help but expand.
This force was first encountered at Freya College. They used special means to brainwash the teachers, students and tourists of Freya College.
They turned the originally kind-hearted people into extremely violent ones, and made the Freya College, which was open to visitors at that time, very badly, forcing the dean Kodorev to win the first place in the college exchange meeting, otherwise his position as dean would be difficult to maintain.
Now, after many years, the name of the evil god cult is heard again. One of the other party’s small bases is actually in the forest north of this royal capital.
According to the information that Elena heard, black dragons appeared in these villages, which means that the evil god cult is probably related to the black dragon clan.
Thinking of this, Elena felt his scalp tingling. It turned out that he had come into contact with the black dragon’s forces a long time ago, which was much earlier than he thought.
"The brave Elena defeated the black dragon in the village, but the evil cult did not give up that stronghold. It seems that there are still some secrets hidden there. Our scouts also reported that they could hear some strange noises from those villages, like the terrifying noises of monsters. The evil cult might have hidden some huge monster under the village."
Augustine said seriously. No matter what the evil cult planned to do, he would not tolerate them messing around near his territory.
After all, if the evil cult was allowed to accomplish what they wanted to do, who knows whether the existence of the suspected monster under the village would attack the capital of the Kingdom of Solens in turn.
No matter what, the danger must be nipped in the bud in the bud in advance, and the person Augustine trusts most now is Elena.
Although heThere are many people under his command who are at the same level as Elena or even stronger in combat power, but most of those strong men have strange personalities and are extremely arrogant. It is difficult to order them to do things, and it is obviously impossible to do it without paying a big price.
"Okay."
Elena hesitated for a while and finally accepted Augustine's order. Everything about the evil god cult made Elena very curious. In order to deal with the black dragon king in the future, Elena felt that he needed to collect more information now.
This reminded Elena of the black dragon magic core that Elena and the others gave him. He has not yet completely absorbed it, and he doesn't know what abilities he can get from the magic core.
It is not clear whether there are still black dragons stationed in the village, but Elena thinks that there is a high probability that there are none, because the giant dragon clan, except the white dragon, basically likes to live alone.
Not to mention the extremely arrogant black dragons, most of them have violent personalities, and they don't want to stay with their own kind even when performing tasks.
There is basically no other possibility for these black dragons to gather together except for wanting to reproduce. Otherwise, it can only be forced by the Black Dragon King.
The existence of the black dragon has always made Elena very uneasy. Not only is the black dragon itself extremely powerful, but also because the village guarded by the black dragon must contain some special secrets.
Even the things that the black dragon is interested in are extraordinary no matter how you think about it. Elena feels that he must find out, maybe it is really a threat to the king.
The topic went more easily than expected, which made Augustine in a good mood. He took Elena to spend a pleasant afternoon tea time.
But soon Augustine had to go to work again. The Kingdom of Solens has been in a state of rapid development since it has such a brave man, but this also makes the workload of the king increase exponentially.
It is not a simple matter to deal with these things. It is not difficult to see from Augustine's increasingly haggard state that he really stayed up late to work in order to deal with these things.
