    It wasn't until he got closer that Link discovered that this river valley town was completely different from the earth's illusion and future. It was actually built on an island in the middle of the river, surrounded by water, with only a bridge connecting to the land on the shore.  ?This can¡¯t be blamed on his clumsy eyes. In order to prevent others from discovering that he was pretending to be comatose, he kept his eyes closed tightly and collected the surrounding situation only through perception.  What surprised him even more was what happened next. The so-called "bridge" was a complete tree. It was alive, as if it had just grown crookedly. Its thick roots were firmly clinging to the embankment, and the "island" he had originally mistakenly identified was  It is a leafy crown.  Are the people living here really ordinary people?  Instead of the Altin stronghold that is closely related to the Druids?  Just when Link was thinking wildly, the patrol had already walked across the bridge deck made of tree trunks, and came to a tree crown that looked like a wall from a distance and branches from a closer look. A tree hole that could only allow a carriage to pass was the entrance to the town.  As soon as the guard saw the beard, he immediately performed a standard military salute.  "Captain Fran, this patrol is over so soon?" "Huh? Is anyone injured?" "A guy I haven't seen before feels suspicious, so I brought the Druid back to see if he was related to the last commotion.  Related." Fran, who was walking at the front, stopped and signaled to the team members behind him to keep going. The militiamen carried Link, who was still pretending to be unconscious, and disappeared one by one into the dark tree hole.  Until the last person entered without any obstruction, the patrol leader named Fran relaxed slightly, but he did not completely relax his vigilance and quickly kept up with the team that had been pulled down.  As soon as Fran¡¯s back disappeared into the dark tree hole, the four people immediately started discussing.  "Do you think what Captain Fran brought back could be the culprit?" "How is that possible! I noticed when that guy passed by, he didn't have the stench of the dead, and he was still alive." "But he didn't look good, and he always felt sick.  Disappointed." After a strange silence.  The guards sighed simultaneously.  "I hope nothing happens. Riverdale Town can no longer afford another cleaning." The brief darkness ended with the tree hole, and what appeared in front of Link was a settlement that was more primitive. Every minute  There are oval-shaped objects like tree knobs growing on the branches, either concave or convex, and without exception there are narrow doors for entry and exit.  Whether round or square, you can tell at a glance that this is the residence of the residents of River Valley Town.  The stretcher suddenly turned around and headed towards the west, which is where the Earth Pillar is and where the natural atmosphere is strongest.  Since entering the town, there was no second sound other than footsteps. The patrol stopped. Fran walked to two intertwined dead tree branches and whispered softly: "Patrol Captain Fran, there is an emergency report.  ¡± ¡° quack quack ¡± The curled branches stretched out, and a hidden secret door was revealed.  The door made of an unknown material slowly retreated inwards.  Signing for the stretcher to be put down, Fran walked in alone.  A familiar yet unfamiliar aura overflowed from the opened secret door, causing Link, who was still pretending to be comatose, to almost fail.  Iris, why is he here?  !  After a while, Fran leaned out half of his body to wave, and the militiamen carrying the stretcher looked at each other.  Since that incident, this is the first time that the Druid stationed in River Valley Town has allowed ordinary people to enter the Suling Palace.  There is a cave inside the secret door, which is as spacious as a noble banquet hall.  The heart of the tree, which was originally full of vitality, seemed to be infested with insects.  There are holes of different sizes everywhere, and there is no decoration except for deer-shaped sculptures.  The indescribable strangeness made everyone, including Fran, extremely uncomfortable.  It was not until the eulogy was finished that the Druid, who was half-kneeling in front of the sculpture, stood up and faced everyone. It was Iris.  "Arkin?" Surprise flashed past, and the elf reached out to Link, first touched his forehead, and then looked at his hands.  "He's staying. You guys go out first." The patrol headed by Fran immediately withdrew, leaving only Link and Iris in the huge secret space.  "There are no outsiders here, no need to pretend." Link is embarrassed, what went wrong?  He is no longer a rookie who first came to Edgar, and he can perfectly hide the aura of a child of nature.  He also deliberately imitated himself as an ordinary person, how could he be seen through in the first meeting?  "The breathing and heartbeat are too steady. It's neither a coma nor an injury." Following Yris' explanation, Link got up and saw that the elf he saw was younger than any Iris he knew.  .  Which time period is it?  The Northern War that lasted for years?  A period of chaos in the Twelve Territories?  Or is it longer?  Both hands slightly loop chest.?This is the greeting of the Earth Pillar Druid. Iris bowed to Link, who was a head lower than himself.  "Elf Prince Iris, here comes the apostle of the Earth Pillar." Link's hand on the whisk suddenly froze.  The time deviation between the earth illusion and the real Edgar directly led to many discrepancies in history and geography. Iris never used the title of prince after becoming the son of nature. The defeat of the Northern Campaign forced him to shoulder the responsibility.  It is the responsibility of the royal family to stand up and become the new Elf King.  At this time, there is only one natural son of the Pillar of Earth, Belfast. This is the time when the secret is revealed The only way is to pretend to have amnesia.  "Apostle of the Pillar of the Earth, am I?" Sure enough, upon hearing Link's confused question, Iris raised her head suddenly, with surprise on her face.  "Don't you remember who you are?" Shaking his head slowly, Link pretended to be confused.  "I woke up in the forest in the morning. I don't remember who I am or what my name is. The only memory is" His eyes moved to the white deer statue behind Iris. Link tried his best to empty his thoughts and make his expression more clear.  Confused, "A beam of light, a white beam of light rushing into the sky." Iris was confused by him and was a little at a loss.  "Is it a short-term amnesia after the selection? Or was it erased by Zhu on purpose? Because it was a human being" After briefly talking to himself, the elf raised a reassuring smile: "Since there is no memory of the past,  Then before you restore your memory, please temporarily name it Belfast. In Elvish language, it means the Alkin people of the Horacio Mountains." Link's eyes widened, Belfast.  I?  ?  ?  ?  ***************************************************  ************************************ Outside Suling Hall, patrol teams that had not dispersed gathered in twos and threes.  Together, they were all discussing the Aljin people left behind by the druids.  Fran didn¡¯t participate, he just kept pacing back and forth, his face gloomy.  But until it got dark, they didn¡¯t wait for anyone to come out.  Many militiamen couldn't wait any longer.  They all asked the captain if they should go in and ask the druid what to do with the Alkin man of unknown origin?  Although River Valley Town is a human settlement, because it is the village closest to the Pillar of the Earth, the person in charge here is neither the village chief nor the peace officer sent by the empire, but the druid stationed in the centuries-old Su Ling Temple.  .  Glancing at the still curly entrance to the Suling Palace, Fran shook his head and said, "Let's all disperse. It looks like they won't come out today." "But" "There is no but! The most powerful and powerful person here  They are all the same. People are safer with him than with us. Have you forgotten the lesson from the last time?" The harsh reprimand made the young subordinates bow their heads, and grievance, unwillingness and anger occupied everyone's heart.  , it was their negligence that led to Riverdale Town being invaded by orcs.  It wasn¡¯t until everyone dispersed that Fran took steps towards his home.  "You're back." The wife, who had been waiting all day, rushed to greet her, but her husband did not give her a hug as usual.  Instead, he walked straight to the table and sat down with a heavy heart.  His state, which can almost be described as lost, naturally aroused his wife's worries.  "What happened? Did you meet an orc?" Fran shook his head and took a big gulp of the ale specially prepared for him.  "That is an undead?" "No. During our routine patrol today, we picked up an unconscious Alkin man in the forest near the border of Mount Horacio." "Huh? The Alkin man" OK  With a sound, Fran fell into deep thought again.  "Don't think too much. Don't we have a druid here who just came from the Pillar of the Earth? That one is much more capable than the previous ones." "Nina, what I'm worried about is not this, but  " Fran always felt that the Alkin people rescued today would bring chaos to River Valley Town.  "Trouble? How could you think of using such a word?" The wife chuckled.  Push the reheated dinner in front of your husband.  "I don't know, intuition. The moment I saw him" The feeling was so weird that Fran couldn't find a suitable adjective. It was as real as if he had seen it with his own eyes. The peaceful town was destroyed because of him.  I want to leave people where they are to fend for themselves.  But then I thought about it, and I was afraid that he would wake up and follow the river to find River Valley Town. Instead of doing this, it would be better to take the initiative to bring him back. If he is really a wicked person with ulterior motives, he will definitely not be able to escape the druid.  What I never expected was that although Druid left the person behind, he didn't say a word.    "You are so careless, maybe he is also a Druid, coming from the Pillar of the Earth." Nina's unintentional words suddenly enlightened Fran, who had been worried for a day, and the ominous premonition led him to subconsciously deny it.  this possibility.  Yes, no wonder the glow elf took a casual look and asked us to retreat.  Butdoes Riverdale need two druids?  The Arkin man fell by the stream and was unconscious. Was there anything strange at the Pillar of the Earth?  Hearing that the nobles of the empire had suffered another defeat in the north, the undead advanced seven counties to the south.  "Okay!" Seeing Fran talking to himself again, Nina slammed the table: "Eat! You are a little patrol captain, you don't care about the Northern War, just take care of your stomach!"  "Yes, my dear wife" Seeing his wife getting angry, Fran quickly apologized and put aside the worries in his mind.  No one would have thought that this would be a sleepless night, a turning point that would change the history and future of Riverdale Town.  (To be continued)
