Capítulo 2884: Chapter 1579: Doubt and Surprise
Looking down the bustling block toward the road’s end, you can see a giant castle adorned with vibrant vines, dotted with brilliant magic flowers, resembling an enormous flower basket.
Despite the structures being covered in plants, much like many long-lost ancient relics, the entire castle appears not worn or weathered, but rather full of artistic flair.
Gazing at this castle, which exudes a strong artistic vibe, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Whether it was the smooth roads and flowerbeds on the way or the castle before them, or the Protective City River Lila ntioned earlier, it was evident they were all carefully maintained.
Moreover, the buildings in the city are also fully refurbished, with many even newly coated in expensive magic paint, a clear sign of abundance, otherwise, who would have the mind to manage these? Not to ntion the lively and cheerful passersby carrying big and small parcels.
Yet, just as everyone wondered earlier, even if the Deerman suddenly gained a vast amount of resources for so reason, breaking free from the oppression and shackles of the Broken Wing King, this seems too thorough, doesn’t it? There’s not a hint of the forr dilapidation.
And according to the information from Lila, Hollis, and others, the Deerman should have been experiencing severe famine not long ago.
“Could it be that the Deerman deliberately spread the news of famine, but in reality, weren’t affected by the Broken Wing King’s plunder?”
“That’s not right. Lila visited here a few years ago, and from the dirty and algae-filled Protective City River, it was evident this place was indeed in ruins then.”
“Moreover, even if the Deerman were hiding their wealth, they shouldn’t reveal it so blatantly, should they? No matter how you look at it, this matter feels a bit strange.”
Leo Ray frowned slightly, his mind racing.
Apart from this, the mysterious shadow earlier was the sa. From how the Deerman behaved, it seed they had no intention of stopping us, but rather opened the gates to welco us.
If the mysterious shadow’s intention was indeed to warn us, then it certainly wasn’t sent by the Deerman leadership. So, who is that mysterious shadow? What’s their purpose in deliberately showing up? And what’s with that indistinct murmuring?
Another critical point is, whether it’s the Deerman guards at the gate or the Deerman elder leading the way, they are overly unguarded, which instead makes one uneasy.
“The more I think about it, the more perplexing Moon Shadow City feels, incredibly prosperous yet sohow off-putting, but I can’t imdiately pinpoint what’s wrong.”
With this thought in mind, Leo Ray tightened his focus a bit more.
Even the cheerful noises of the passing Deerman around seed a bit eerie at the mont.
Not only Leo Ray himself, but the other strong companions all wore the sa expression, their eyes sharp, obviously in a highly alert state, in stark contrast to the harmonious, lively crowd around.
“When it cos to the classic delicacies of the Deerman, it would have to be our Moon Shadow Deer People’s Starfall Sect cuisine. The roasted crispy skin with fresh jam, the sweet and crispy taste is simply unforgettable.”
The Deerman elder continued to speak endlessly about various Deerman delicacies, seemingly quite animated.
After a while, he noticed that Leo Ray and his companions showed no sign of relaxation and proudly said, “Hehe, honorable guests, there’s no need to be so tense. As you have seen, our Moon Shadow Deer People are imnsely resourceful and lack for nothing. We can certainly host you well, so please enjoy it all at ease.”
“We appreciate Grand Elder’s kindness, but we did not co here for food and banquets this ti.”
After exchanging a glance with Leo Ray, Lila tentatively spoke, “We have important matters to discuss with Lord Clan Leader of the Deerman. We request Elder to arrange a eting promptly.”
“Hehe, no matter the important matters, shouldn’t they wait until after a good al?”
The elder Deerman’s face still wearing a smile, replied, “I have already ntioned, the Clan Leader is hosting a banquet, and if you follow to the Banquet Hall, you will naturally et the Clan Leader.”
“But we are in no mood to participate in any banquet now.”
Lila frowned slightly, blurting out.
Being the Stone Giant Clan Chief, Lila clearly understands that this ti our side might engage in a bloody battle with the Broken Wing King, whose imnse strength and ruthless thods need no further ntion, having been notorious across second-tier powers in recent years, and the vast resources he amassed making him exceptionally powerful.
Even with so many forces standing with us, we may still not be his match, let alone if he’s likely aided by the first-class Winged Race?
It’s no exaggeration to say that one wrong step and our side would fall into an inescapable abyss. In such a situation, where’s there any leisure to attend a banquet?
“Lord Stone Giant Clan Chief, no matter the important matters, shouldn’t they wait until after a feast?”
The Deerman elder’s smile faded slightly, repeating his previous words.
