Chapter 438: The rioting earth element giants


    The Forest of Elves,


    Hearing the voice of a scout ranger, many people in the team turned their eyes, but no one stepped forward to ask about the situation.


    ?Lee Si and Cecile also looked at him curiously. The ranger looked a little embarrassed, as if he had been attacked.


    At this time, Elder Riccardo saw this and quickly walked out of the team, looked at the injured elf ranger and asked:


    “What happened?”


    “How did it get like this?”


    Ricardo couldn''t help but ask this. It was really strange that the elf ranger was injured.


    ?Although he didn’t appear to have suffered any obvious external injuries, his whole body was dusty, as if he had been rolled out of a pile of sand.


    ?Elves who always like to be clean rarely find themselves in such a mess.


    ??And looking at the serious look on this elf ranger''s face, it seems that the danger he encountered is quite difficult.


    ?Li Si was a little curious, but did not step forward.


    Riccardo didn''t seem to want to hide it from the others, so he asked the embarrassed elf ranger about the situation in person.


    Although the sound was not deliberately amplified, Li Si could hear it quite clearly with his hearing.


    “The earth elemental giants in the Casper Valley in front didn’t know why, and they completely rioted.”


    “We will be attacked by those earth element giants just when we try to get close and pass by.”


    “What, are you sure?”


    Riccardo frowned and asked with a headache.


    ??This place is already close to the Elf King''s Court, and Riccardo naturally knows the situation in the Casper Valley.


    ??Casper Valley is also a very special place in the Elf Forest. The special thing is that it is different from other places in the Elf Forest. The valley is full of strong earth element power.


    The rich power of the earth element means that this valley is not covered by forest. The rocks and soil are exposed in the air. From mid-air, it looks like a huge scar in the Elf Forest.


    The area occupied by Casper Valley is not small. The rich earth element makes various monsters that rely on earth elements active in the valley. Riccardo even knew that there were several copper dragons living in Casper Valley.


    ?However, the Casper Valley has been like this for thousands of years, and no one knows why the Casper Valley was formed.


    This is a special area created by the world and nature, so the Elf Kingdom has no intention of forcibly changing the environment here.


    Of course, it may also be because the Casper Valley is so large that it would take a lot of power from the elves and gods to change this area. The Navia Forest, which occupies most of the southern part of the Fanor continent, is enough for the Elf Kingdom to survive. , and I haven’t thought about other aspects.


    ?However, a large number of earth elemental giants?


    What''s going on? There were indeed earth elemental giants wandering around in the Casper Valley before, but those earth elemental giants were all unintelligent beings. Generally speaking, they didn''t attack them before, and they only attacked passing elves?


    “I’m sure, Elder Riccardo.”


    ?The elf ranger said with a serious face.


    He is also familiar with the Casper Valley. As an elf living in the Elf King''s Court, he has traveled through the Casper Valley many times, but never had such a problem.


    He couldn''t even believe his eyes when he heard the loud noise and saw the ground in Casper Valley cracking open, and countless earth elemental giants waking up and crawling out of the ground.


    ??Are there one hundred or two hundred earth element giants?


    ??He has walked from the Casper Valley so many times, but he never imagined that there would be so many earth elemental giants in the underground!


    ??He wanted to retreat when he saw that scene, but thinking that he was here to get more information this time, he tried to move forward without thinking about retreating.


    But unfortunately, those earth element giants did not wake up and stretch themselves.


    ?The earth element giants were more like being woken up from a sweet dream. Their violent auras were like people filled with the energy of getting out of bed, and they attacked him directly.


    There were too many earth elemental giants. Even though this elf ranger had gold-level strength, he managed to escape from them in quite a panic.


    Along the way, he was covered in dust by the earth spells used by the earth elemental giants, but fortunately he was not seriously injured. He was just a little weak after trying his best to dodge.


    “The number of earth elemental giants exceeds one hundred?”


    Riccardo asked the elf ranger in detail about the whole process that happened in the Casper Valley, and then asked the elf ranger to rest first.


    ?His face was a little gloomy, this turn of events made him somewhat unexpected.


    To be honest, Casper Valley is almost the only way to return to the Elf King''s Court from the north of the Elf Forest. If you want to take a detour, the delay will not be more than a day or two.


    From here, it only takes a day or two to cross the Casper Valley and return to the Elf King''s Court.


    ? Riccardo subconsciously thought that this might be the work of the mastermind behind the scenes, but soon he was not sure.


    To be honest, he couldn''t figure out the meaning of doing this. Was it just to delay their trip?


    With His Majesty Alves by his side, Riccardo was not worried about a sudden attack.


    What''s more, at this distance from the Elf King''s Court, if there are multiple legendary powerful men attacking the team, the power of the Elf King''s Court will soon be able to support them.


    Riccardo instead expected that what happened in the Casper Valley was the work of the masterminds behind the scenes. If they could really seize any important clues, the team would be able to accept any loss.


    Even himself!


    ?However, Riccardo didn’t think much about it now. He believed His Majesty Alves would consider this matter.


    The key is whether the current changes in Casper Valley will affect the progress of the entire team.


    After thinking for a moment, Riccardo called for the team''s guard captain, gave a few instructions, and then left the team and rushed towards the Casper Valley.


    The guards in the team became obviously nervous, and the atmosphere became a little serious.


    ??Li Si glanced at Cecile who was also a little worried next to him, thought about it, and found an excuse to walk aside.


    Use magic to summon a transparent little human-like reconnaissance puppet, which slowly follows behind Riccardo.


    This is a special detection spell that Li Si obtained from the Great Library of Azera Floating City. Although the summoned magic puppet is extremely fragile and cannot even withstand the power of ordinary people, its greatest advantages are its mobility and extremely high aura concealment. ability.


    It is also quite practical in investigation.


    Going back to sit down next to Cecile, a clear picture appeared in front of Li Si''s eyes.


    Because Riccardo was also a gold-level mage, Li Si did not get too close and followed him far outside the Casper Valley. Riccardo looked at the valley not far away from his feet with a gloomy expression. The terrain and rich earth elements were the same as before, but the difference was the originally empty center of the valley.


    There are no lush trees in the valley to block the sky, and there are no flowers to decorate it. Only bare land and rugged rocks are spread out, forming a desolate and magnificent scene.


    The air in the valley seems to be filled with an ancient and calm atmosphere. In this seemingly empty land, only a group of earth element giants are wandering aimlessly and slowly. Their existence makes this valley It adds a touch of fantasy and majesty.


    ?These earth element giants come in different shapes and sizes. They are like sons of the earth and masterpieces of nature. Their bodies are made of gray-white soil and rocks of different sizes. The jagged gravel on their bodies is both rough and full of the rhythm of life.


    What is even more amazing is that among these giants, there are also several earth element giants that are completely made of dark gray rocks. Their skin is covered with traces of time, and every rock seems to record an ancient story. Their aura is as majestic as a mountain, and every step they take seems to make the earth tremble.


    Li Si, who was looking at this scene not far away, couldn''t help but be a little surprised. The several earth element giants in the valley with obviously different auras should all have reached the gold level of power.


    ?This is very troublesome. Even Li Si can''t think of any good way to allow the entire elf team to pass through the valley without alerting the earth element giant.


    ??He himself has a way, the simplest one is space teleportation or shadow jumping through this valley.


    ?But now it seems that Riccardo, the elf elder, does not have such a trump card.


    The most important thing is, who would have thought that so many earth element giants would appear in the Casper Valley.


    Riccardo observed for a moment, his eyebrows furrowed deeply, the situation was more troublesome than he thought.


    At first he thought that the elf ranger was exaggerating. If there were really so many earth elemental giants sleeping in Casper Valley, wouldn’t the Elf King’s Court know about it?


    But now, how could there be only two hundred earth element giants in front of us?


    Looking around, the rock walls on the other side of the Casper Valley, which is more than ten kilometers away, are vaguely visible. Although the earth element giants in front of us are scattered in the valley, there are definitely more than one or two hundred in number.


    Riccardo did a rough calculation and found that there were at least five hundred earth element giants.


    ?Most of them are bronze-level and silver-level earth element giants, but there are at least twenty gold-level giants among them.


    Riccardo was silent for a moment and arranged for two elf rangers to test it again.


    I hope these earth element giants have dispersed and will not attack so aggressively.


    ??But the final result was different from what Riccardo thought. As soon as the two elf rangers approached, the nearest earth elemental giant reacted and rushed towards the two of them.


    ?Although it may not be appropriate to use the charge, after all, the speed of the earth element giants is quite slow, but their actions seemed to disturb other giants, so that a whole area of ??earth element giants rushed over.


    During this process, many earth element giants even continued to crawl out of the ground.


    ?The two elf rangers turned pale, without any thought of resisting, and quickly turned back to the cliff.


    Seems to have lost the aura of the elf rangers, and the rock giants have returned to their previous state and continue to wander in the valley.


    As expected, you still have no wisdom and only rely on instinct?


    ?Li Si saw this and was a little curious about what Riccardo wanted to do.


    After seeing what happened, Riccardo didn''t have much. He led the team along the rock wall of the valley for a few more kilometers. After leaving the area where the earth elemental giant wandered, he continued to arrange for rangers to explore the valley. .


    ??Li Si knew what Riccardo was doing. He wanted to test whether only the earth element giant was rioting in the area just now, and other areas might be safer.


    As the two elf rangers advanced, a rumble sounded throughout the valley.


    ?In front of Li Si''s eyes, the ground of the entire valley suddenly shattered, and more earth elemental giants crawled out from under the ground than before.


    Upon seeing this, Riccardo immediately took the people out of there.


    After trying two more places, Riccardo gave up and continued testing.


    Obviously, the Elf Court did not know that there were so many earth elemental giants sleeping under the Casper Valley. If the entire valley was like this, it would be a bit scary. There might even be tens of thousands or more earth elementals. Here the giant sleeps.


    ?However, Riccardo is not worried that these earth element giants will bring danger to the Elf Royal Court. Such unintelligent element giants will basically only live in places with strong concentrations of corresponding elements and will not leave their original territory.


    In that case, it won’t take long for these earth element giants to exhaust all their magic power and turn into ashes.


    ??But now the problem before Riccardo was how to cross the Casper Valley.


    Should we wait for these violent earth element giants to regain their composure and return to sleep underground?


    How long will it take? Why not take a detour to avoid the Casper Valley?


    What''s more, the situation that made these earth element giants suddenly become violent is still unclear. What if there is a greater danger involved!


    Because the elf team led by Riccardo was to protect the sun elves returning to the Elven Court, the entire team was quite powerful.


    ?Including Riccardo, there are more than ten gold-level combatants. Although there are many earth element giants, their huge bodies mean that only some of them can attack the team at the same time.


    Riccardo was still confident that he could lead the team through the Casper Valley, but he was worried about other changes.


    ?Just when Kaldor was hesitating, a voice suddenly came into his ears.


    Riccardo looked certain. Since His Majesty Alves will protect him secretly, there is no need to worry.


    “Let’s go, go back and rest today, and cross the Casper Valley tomorrow.”


    Riccardo said calmly.


    "yes!"


    ?Other elven guards said that they are all warriors who have been tempered and tempered by the elven royal court. They have been baptized by the elven gods, and their strength is naturally good.


    There are only more earth elemental giants in front of them. In terms of strength alone, they are confident of defeating these unintelligent beings.


    Upon seeing this, Li Si was ready to continue investigating.


    He was quite curious about the reason for the uprising of these earth elemental giants.


    Suddenly at this moment, he felt a sense of being spied on.


    ?Li Si was suddenly startled and quickly dispersed the detection puppets.


    ?Just a few seconds after Li Si dispersed the puppets, Alves'' figure appeared where the magic puppet was.
