When they walked inside, they found that the leaves in the forest were not the same as before, but were beginning to turn yellow.
At this moment, Loki suddenly stopped and stopped moving forward. Lin Feng and the others were very curious after seeing this scene, and hurriedly asked him: "What happened? Why didn't you move forward? Is there any change in what is recorded on the map?"
However, Loki shook his head and said to them: "Only after walking here did I realize that the map was not complete. The location recorded on the map only goes up to here, and then there is a sentence below telling us to find the place where the unicorn lives. Only by finding the place where the unicorn lives can we find the whereabouts of the Holy Grail."
Everyone was very surprised to hear the news. They looked at the map for a long time and found that it was just as Loki said. There was no other way to get here. They could only look for the whereabouts of the unicorn.
At this time, Thor sighed and said, "I'm afraid this is going to be troublesome. I have lived here for a while and I have some understanding of its history. Although this place is called the Unicorn Forest, it is because it is said that unicorns once appeared here, but that was a long time ago. Now no one has seen unicorns here for many years, so we may find it difficult to find this place. What's more, we don't have a map, so we can't even find this place."
Everyone was shocked when they heard the result. If that was the case, it would not be easy for them to find the unicorn. After arriving here, there was nothing else shown on the map, which meant that the person who left the map before might have only found this place and did not look for other places.
However, if the truth is as they thought, it will be difficult to deal with. They have lost the clues, and it will be more difficult to find the Holy Grail, so they are all worried and helpless.
Lin Feng was furious when he heard the news. Who could have thought that they would come here to look for the legendary unicorn, but it seemed that the creature did not exist here at all. Their search was as hopeless as looking for a needle in the vast ocean.
What's more, this place is rarely visited by people and naturally there is no corresponding map, so it is not easy to find the unicorn.
However, Black Widow seemed particularly optimistic at this time. She said bluntly:
"We've come here, we can't go back empty-handed. Let's look around carefully first, maybe we'll find something after a while.
Since the unicorn once appeared here, it must still exist here, but it may have lost contact with the outside world for a long time.
Therefore, we must not give up hope, otherwise it may be difficult to have such a good opportunity again in the future."
After hearing this, everyone nodded. Indeed, it might not be easy to encounter such an opportunity again in the future.
This time they had finally used this opportunity to keep Hela out and enter the place to search. If they left like this without finding anything, they would be at a great loss.
At this time, Rhodes hesitated a little, and then said to everyone:
“I just wanted to try to search the surrounding environment, but I found that there is an extremely strong repressive force in this place.
In other words, we can neither fly to high places to explore nor generate maps here.
Therefore, we can only search step by step, which is undoubtedly a difficult task for us."
After hearing this, Thor also frowned.
"Why don't we split into several groups and search separately, maybe we can find it this way."
However, Lin Feng immediately rejected this proposal.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible. We could split up when carrying out missions before, but we absolutely cannot do that now.
We didn't have a map and were not familiar with the place. If we got lost, the consequences would be disastrous.
Moreover, there may be some creatures here that are unknown to us. If we encounter them, we may not be able to support each other.
More importantly, all information about this place is blocked. If one party finds the unicorn, others will not be able to know about it and rush back.
It would be troublesome if we got lost here.”
After hearing this, everyone thought it made sense, so they continued searching in one direction.
They walked in this direction, but to their surprise, the leaves in front of them gradually turned from yellow to red.
This was similar to a scene they had seen before, which made them very curious, but they clearly remembered that they had never been here.
They went on, and after a while the red leaves turned green again.
This was exactly the same scene they had seen when they first entered the Unicorn Forest.
They felt a little weird when they encountered such a situation.
A feeling suddenly surged in Lin Feng's heart. Although he did not rule out the possibility that the scenery would continue to repeat like this in the future, he always felt that there was a powerful force left in this place, just like the feeling left when they just passed by.
He always had the illusion that they seemed to have been to this place before, but they had no idea when they had been there.
This made them feel very depressed, and at this moment, Black Widow suddenly shouted.
Everyone thought she had discovered something and came towards her.
The Black Widow pointed to a large rock in front of her and said to everyone:
"We may have walked back to this stone where we parted from the elf.
I remember this place very well; I rested here before and there are still traces of my footprints on it.”
Someone walked up to check and indeed found a footprint.
Seeing this scene, everyone's faces turned very bad. It turned out that they had walked for half a day and ended up walking back. This made them feel surprised and frustrated.
Did they lose their way? But this was impossible because they were always moving in one direction.
Moreover, they are all very powerful. Generally speaking, those confusing places will not have any effect on them at all.
However, to their surprise, they got lost in this place. After arriving here, they felt very depressed.
So, they decided to rest here first, and think of what to do next after they rested.
After hearing this, everyone nodded and began to rest on the spot.
They rested for a long time, and after regaining their strength, they headed deeper into the forest again.
They made marks along the way, but something even stranger happened. They actually returned to the starting point.
Even the marks they made were still there, which made them feel very depressed.
After seeing this scene, Lin Feng also felt very troubled. He felt that it would be difficult to find the unicorn this time with their strength alone.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that a living being was approaching them.
He immediately ordered his men to get ready, and the others also became serious when they saw his serious look.
They thought that maybe the enemy was coming, so they all became alert. At this moment, the bushes in front of them suddenly moved.
When everyone saw this, they quietly walked closer to see what was going on.
Just then, a little head suddenly popped out from the bushes. They only discovered him after the man had completely walked out.
The one who came was actually the elf who had sent them here before.
They were all very happy to see the elf appear here again. Lin Feng was also very curious, so he asked:
"Why are you here? Didn't your family say that you are not allowed to come to this place?"
The elf nodded and said to them:
“I just went back to my own tribe and asked.
No outsiders have come to this place for more than 100 years, so you are the first people to come here in a hundred years.
However, there was someone who had been here before, and he was also here to look for the Holy Grail.
But he said that this person had ulterior motives and had not found the person after searching for a long time. He even sneaked into the forest.
Later he just left the place.
I just heard that after he left here, he left a blueprint, hoping that later generations would continue to look for it.”
After listening to the elf's explanation, everyone turned their eyes to the map in Loki's hand.
They guessed that this map should have been left by that person, and it seemed that person did not find the unicorn either.
After hearing this, Lin Feng sighed. It seemed that they were indeed not destined to have the Holy Grail.
Thor felt a little unwilling at this moment. He looked at the elf and asked:
"Is there no other way to find the unicorn?"
The elf blinked and said:
"Who said there is no other way? Of course there are other ways. I went back to my tribe and found the great elder.
Then he asked the great elder and learned the correct way to find the unicorn.
So I came to find you as soon as I found the news, and I just found you now."
Everyone's eyes lit up after hearing this.
That way, they wouldn't have to search here for so long because they already knew where the unicorn was.
However, Lin Feng still felt a little confused at this time. He pointed to the forest in front and asked:
"So you said that the forest ahead is your forbidden area, so isn't the unicorn in it?"
The elf smiled mysteriously, and then said to them:
"You are smart. The unicorn is indeed not in that forest. That forest is just to confuse others.
In fact, besides you, many people have come here to look for the Holy Grail before.
But they all got nothing.
The people guarding the Holy Grail set up such a forest here, and many people were blocked outside the forest.
But even so, there are still many people coming here to look for it.
Later, the power of this forbidden area became stronger and stronger, and a protective shield was formed outside.
This protective shield can protect everyone inside, so no outsider can get in.
As time went by, no one knew about this matter anymore, and they simply set this place as a forbidden area for the elves.
It is also to prevent their own family members from getting lost here.
It was just because I was young and didn’t know about this matter. When I returned to the family and asked the oldest elder in our family.
Only then did I know the truth of the matter, and the Great Elder also told me the true whereabouts of the unicorn and asked me to come here to help you.
If you could find the Holy Grail, that would be even better."
After hearing this, everyone was very happy and thanked the elf one after another.
After hearing the news, these people were very happy and asked the elves to show them a clear way. At this moment, the elves led them to a forest, at the end of which was a lake.
Just then, the elf tapped a few times on some stones.
Seeing this, Thor was confused and was about to go forward to investigate.
The Black Widow quickly stopped him and said with a frown: "The elf has its reasons for doing this. Don't disturb it, otherwise it will be troublesome if you can't find the Holy Grail."
The others nodded upon hearing this, and Thor could only scratch his head in embarrassment.
He smiled and said to everyone, "Okay, okay, I get it. I'm just curious. In that case, I won't go."
After saying this, he returned to his original position, but his expression was still depressed.
At this time, Lin Feng looked ahead and felt that these stones were definitely not ordinary things. These stones should be able to form a formation when combined.
Sure enough, after the elf moved the stone a few times, the stone suddenly emitted a green light and then floated into the air.
The stones in the air flashed green light, and then the lake in front disappeared in an instant, replaced by a dense forest with a road in the forest.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked, but compared to what they had seen in the forest before, they were not surprised. It seemed that there must be a formation blocking this place, so no one knew the correct path, and people from the outside world could not enter.
After the elf finished his work, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "No one has walked this road for many years. There used to be many unicorns in the Unicorn Forest, and they lived outside like us. But because the horns on their heads were powerful, many people began to hunt unicorns in order to increase their strength. Later, they left here and hid in this special passage, not wanting to be disturbed by outsiders. No one has seen them since then. If I hadn't heard what the great elder said, I wouldn't know about this place."
Everyone was overjoyed after hearing this, as they finally had a clue, and started to walk inside.
After entering the forest, they found many unicorns. The unicorns were very surprised to see them because no outsiders had visited here for many years. They were curious about the appearance of humans and pointed and talked.
At this time, a young unicorn stopped them and said, "Who are you? Why are you here? Tell me your purpose quickly, or I will be rude to you."
When everyone heard the unicorn speak, they were all surprised and found it very magical.
The elf waved his hand and said to them: "It's nothing. The unicorns back then were very powerful. They were divine beasts between heaven and earth, so they naturally had extraordinary abilities."
Then the elf told the unicorn that they were here to visit the chief of the unicorn clan.
When the unicorn people saw that the visitors were elves, they nodded and led them to a stone palace.
After entering the stone palace, they found that there was indeed a unicorn that looked very old. (End of this chapter)
