After staying one night to rest the body. They continued on their way towards the Eternal Valley.
The difference is very pronounced. The forest they passed through had a variety of plants that they rarely saw.
Elves was astonished, with the plants he had seen for the first time. He forgot how he almost died while being carried by Ruve hanging up there.
With the tools he got from the upper world, he could take pictures easily. Elves. Square tool with button on top. The simplest camera.
He took plant examples and pictures. Elves was busy with her world. Ruve and Gen gave him time. Ruve and Gen went to look around.
From the other side, there was a figure peeking at them. The black figure only visible to his eyes. It's walking slowly. And hide by camouflaging yourself.
Its body is dwarfed, round and mossy.
He moved his index finger on his lips. And from behind him a few of those figures were lurking. Ruve and friends.
He waved at his flock. To slowly approach. He saw his flock already in position. He brought out something long.
And blew. The arrow shot out rapidly towards Ruve. Ruve repelled the attack with a chain coming out of her fingers.
Ruve, Gen and Elves became wary. They circle and turn their backs on each other. Ruve and Gen, just now, felt like someone was watching them.
TRANKS!
TRANKS!
TRANKS!
Sound of iron with iron. The attacks again collided, and all were quickly repelled by Ruve's black chains, winding around protecting the others.
Drrrtt! Drrrt! Drrrtt!
The vibration of Ruve's chain equaled her rattling tail. Circled the three and made a barrier to protect themselves from the attack that had attacked them.
Srrak!
"Aark!" One of his chains caught the dwarf figure, pulled it and hung it upside down. The dwarf's legs are tied to Ruve's chains.
The collection of dwarf figures began to appear with swords attacking the barrier Ruve had made.
TRANKS!
The arrows of Elves slid and the Sword of Gen slashed down the dwarf bodies that were touched by the sabetage or the sword turned into sand.
They attacked the entire dwarf creature and left one hanging by the Ruve chain. Gen approached at the dwarf figure. After making sure no one else attacked them.
"Who are you?" Intimidating genes.
"Whose are you? We do not accept entrants!" Said the dwarf squeaking.
"Then you do not accept entrants, you have the right to attack! Fuck up!" Sebal's gene. Just now he had cleaned his sword and was now dirty with sticky sand.
"Take us to your village, the Eternal Valley" hearing that made the dwarf's eyebrows sharpen.
"What do you need to do there?" Ask the dwarf. "I won't tell you." Said the dwarf.
"Oh then we'll take you in, and wait for your friend to save you" Gen picked up a small piece of cloth and began to clean his sword. Gen liked the glint of the sword which looked sharp and terrifying.
"No one will save me!" Firmly the dwarf but Elves can see the sadness in he said.
"Why didn't they save you? Will every mission fail you let go of a friend who got caught? Or is it the rule if the mission fails you can't go back? Or are they not going to save you?" Gen and Ruve were fixated on the question that Elves threw at the dwarf.
The last question, it touched those who were isolated, Ruve felt it, Elves did too. No one thought it existed. Shunned by all old friends.
Netra Elves stared flatly at the widened dwarf's eyes. But then he normalized it again.
"They're not coming!"
"Don't save yourself?" Ruve heated. "What kind of friend is that? Or what kind of village is that? Not thinking about the safety of its people!"
"This is for the safety of the village!" Lantang the dwarf.
"Village safety number one!" Snap the dwarf. He could not accept the feeling that the three people in front of him were insulting his village.
"It's a worthy sacrifice!" Obstinately. The dwarf said proudly.
"You got a family? Are they proud too?" Sentilan from Gen.
"Surely" he said with confidence.
"Don't you feel sorry for your family? Who loses you, their hearts will be hurt, instead of proud, you have children? What if someone mocks her later?" The dwarf fell silent. His confident face gradually faded away.
Hands clenched. "That's not gonna happen!" Hissing slowly.
"Take us to your village and you can meet your family" Gen urged.
"WILL NOT! AARK!" the dwarf took the iron arrow and tore its own neck.
Sjssrrrttt …
The sand decays from the Ruve chain. They sighed. It's a cloned dust magic. High level magic.
"They're stubborn too, I just found out" Ruve said. "Well follow the original cloning. Maybe later we will meet the real body" said Elves.
They continued their steps. They were sure the Eternal Valley was close. The vanguard guards they had met.
Big buildings are visible, they're climbing the stairs. The sturdy door made of thick wood instantly opened. Two dwarfs greeted them.
Confusion struck, Ruve glanced at Gen in order to remain cautious, afraid of traps.
"Welcome to the Eternal Valley" the old raucous voice greeted the three.
He saw the appearance of an old man with narrow eyes, with shoulder-length hair that was parted straight white, as well as a long beard that was also white. With one dwarf following him.
He walked closer by stroking his beard. "Everyone calls me, Kenny, the elder you want to meet" he said kindly but also mysteriously. They still continued to be on the lookout for this puzzling state.
Kenny's? The guard turtle of Eternal Lamb? Ruve and Gen, sumringah, were different from the Elves who were still suspicious. It's so easy for them to meet this Kenny-Kenny.
Everyone knew about the rumors, but when the person who told him about the Valley was asked how the guard looked in detail no one could answer, because they had never seen the real figure.
Elves can't be off guard. His sister is still waiting for him. Also Ruve who had yet to find the immortal crystal, their journey was still long.
"What's your purpose here?" Ask.
"The illusory light, we want to get there" Elves replied without covering up anything or pleasantries.
"Follow me" Kenny took them in an elevator. Gen, Ruve and Elves, entered the small box. They did not expect to find a modern tool in this village.
The elevators without barrier walls, they were brought down. There are many settlements with various figures are doing their respective activities.
And the elevator kept coming down, they found a crowded market. The noise, they did not expect the village to be underground.
Next floor. The floor where the library is located. Kenny takes her out of the elevator and the vast library is full of tall wooden cabinets with many books lined up to greet them.
They see with sparkling eyes. Amazed to find no words. Many fairies are flying, the dwarf is in the upper corner, like a library officer who arranges books in a closet.
Many books are left piled up on the floor waiting for their turn to be neatened. The three still faithfully followed Kenny.
They passed through the labyrinth of tall cabinets and saw a bright blue beam of light at the end of the road. When they entered, there was a giant aquarium in front of them.
Glass walls show a beautiful underwater view. There are two stairs to reach the top of the aquarium. Kenny took her upstairs. Without a word, Kenny jumped into the water.
And Kenny's figure turned into a large-sized turtle. "Sit in my shell" Kenny ordered. The first gene sits on top of its shell. Then Ruve and Elves were last.
They traveled the deep ocean, and strangely enough they could breathe in water. The face with a smile expands from the three. They were lulled by the stunning view of the lower sea, they were off guard.
When they realized they were already in a prison under the sea.
