Chapter 227: The Basement of the Palace
After all the deliberations stopped, Liehui and Lingyun practiced separately in the treehouse, waiting for the day of negotiation to come.
During the two days of waiting, Liehui and Lingyun tacitly did not disturb each other. During this short period of time, Liehui had to try to adjust his force to the best state. Ling Yun healed all the dark injuries left by his previous blockade for the night star.
Lingyun had only recovered the injuries on her body to the extent that she could move freely, but if she encountered an enemy who wanted to use force against the enemy freely, she would be affected by the injury, but in order to be able to reach the elf country as soon as possible, she never stopped to repair her injuries
Two days passed quickly, and on the eve of dawn on the day of negotiations, before the sky was bright, Lingyun and Liehui came to wait outside the palace early. The palace guards had obviously arrived earlier than Ling Yun and Lie Hui, and they were all waiting outside the palace. Although it was not yet the time for the royal family to meet, they could no longer sleep.
Since the relocation of the Elven Kingdom, it has been a long time since Queen Shuren has gone through the Queen of Shuren to now. None of the guards thought that they would go to war one day. They are accustomed to a peaceful life, and once they have been in a state for a long time, it is difficult to change, and when the external environment forces you to change, you will be a little restless like these elven guards now. The guards sat in twos and threes, quietly waiting for the assembly time to come.
Time passed slowly, the sky grew brighter, and when the first rays of sunlight shone on the palace hall, the assembly time came. The guards began to form a line, and for a moment the sound of footsteps was heard in the open space in front of the palace, and then there was silence.
After some time, the royal family members of the royal palace appeared on the stepped platform in front of the palace with the queen in their arms.
Liehui saw the appearance of the elven queen clearly, and she was three points similar to Lingyun, but she was more mature and stable.
After Lingyun escaped from the elven country, now she sees her mother again, and she doesn't know whether she is happy or sad in her heart.
The queen's speech, that is, some pre-war mobilization and other words, mobilized the emotions of these guards.
Once everything was ready, the royal team set off for the negotiation venue. Lie Hui who was watching from the side still looked a little unfinished, this kind of scene was also the first time he had seen it, and it was also a race that was very different from the human race, and in this respect, Lie Hui was also the first person in the past thousand years.
Lingyun watched the royal team leave, and she was still a little worried in her heart, although her life in the palace was not satisfactory, but the current queen was also her mother, and she was not the kind of person who could completely abandon her relationship with her mother.
After the royal team's team left completely, Liehui and Lingyun were also ready, and now was the best time to steal the life liquid. Although the royal family had a better chance of fighting those rebels, it was unknown whether others would negotiate peace or war, and Liehui couldn't gamble on this completely ungrasped opportunity.
In the first step of the plan, Lingyun put on the necklace and appeared in the open space in front of the palace. After putting on the necklace, Lingyun looked like a human race, and some of the guards who remained in the palace soon discovered Lingyun in human form, but to Liehui's surprise, those guards didn't seem to have the slightest intention of chasing Lingyun.
This made Liehui a little depressed, it stands to reason that whether it is the appearance of a human or an elf, Lingyun should be able to cause a certain reaction. But those guards had obviously seen Lingyun, but they didn't make any moves.
Ling Yun also didn't figure out the situation, so he took off the necklace around his neck, revealing the appearance of his elf clan, and there was no movement either, and those guards still behaved like when they saw Ling Yun in the past. Ling Yun had some thoughts in her heart, didn't these guards know the news of her escape from the elven country?
At the beginning, Lingyun was in the name of looking around, and after swaggering out of the palace and the border, she plunged into the underground passage. She didn't know if she had been hunted after she left the Elven Kingdom.
Ling Yun's thoughts were not wrong, the news of her escape from the Elven Kingdom was not known to any ordinary elves in the Elven Country, and even a limited number of people in the royal family knew about it. The reason is that Lingyun's mother, the elf queen, blocked the news. As the Queen's first daughter, Nightstar's previous exile has greatly affected the Queen's status.
Now that the queen's second daughter has also escaped from the elven country, if this news is known to the people of the elven kingdom again, I am afraid that she, the elven queen, will not need those rebels to do anything, and the rest of the royal family will begin to discuss the queen's abdication.
Therefore, after Ling Yun escaped, except for a limited number of people who knew the truth, everyone else thought that Ling Yun was just practicing in retreat. For the long lifespan of the elven race, it is not a big problem to retreat and cultivate for a few years or even more than ten years at a time.
Ling Yun tentatively walked up the steps of the palace and came to the guards guarding the main entrance of the palace, and those guards just saluted Ling Yun as before, without any other actions. This made Ling Yun decide what she thought, these people didn't know about their escape.
Ling Yun returned to Lie Hui's side and said to Lie Hui, "Those guards don't know about my escape, you wear this necklace, and I will take you directly into the palace." ”
Lie Hui also didn't know what to say when he heard this, the so-called plan couldn't catch up with the change, but now it seems that the change is developing in a good direction.
After taking the necklace and putting it around his neck, Liehui prepared to follow Lingyun directly into the palace. But when he took a step, he suddenly thought of a question, why Lingyun wouldn't be mistaken by these guards when she wore the necklace? Those depraved people before could also directly recognize Lingyun with the necklace, which made Liehui a little unbelievable about the role of the necklace.
Liehui asked Lingyun his question, "Why are you still recognized by these people wearing a necklace, instead of thinking of you as a human?"
Ling Yun replied: "It should be the relationship between my face, as a princess, basically all the elves know my appearance, and this chain is just a slight change." I know what you're worried about, and you can rest assured. After you put on the necklace, I can't tell if you're not an elf, and those guards are not as strong as me, so I shouldn't be able to tell the difference. ”
Lie Hui listened to Lingyun's answer and relaxed slightly.
Lingyun and Liehui walked into the palace one after the other, and although the guards had not seen Liehui, they saw that the princess had brought it, so they did not stop it. And with Liehui's appearance, he should also be a member of the royal family.
There is a general rule among elves, that is, the better the appearance, the closer the blood relationship with the royal family. The origin of this law is related to the elves or when the male is the king, and it is simple to say, that is, the good looks will be selected to become the wife of the royal family, so that over time, the appearance of the royal family members will naturally get better and better.
Lingyun and Liehui walked all the way to the entrance of the underground space of the palace marked on the map. The entrance to this underground space is not actually guarded by special personnel, and the entrance to the underground space is in the room where Nightstar originally lived. After Nightstar was exiled, the room was idle. It is only used once every 30 years when the Life Fluid is produced.
As an idle room, now is the time when there is a shortage of people, so naturally it will not be taken care of by those guards.
Liehui and Lingyun searched the room for a while, and found a place where there was an echoing sound underground. Blaze lifted the carpet that had been laid here. After groping around with the ground here for a while, I felt a slight bulge in my hand. Liehui wielded force in his hands, touching the bulge again. The next moment, the entire ground where the reverberation was turned upside down.
A formation is depicted on the ground after the flipping, which is the teleportation formation. Liehui and Lingyun glanced at each other, and Lingyun nodded to Liehui. Liehui took a step forward and fought on top of the formation. As soon as Liehui stood up, he felt the sky spin for a while, and disappeared in place in just an instant. Lingyun saw Liehui disappear, and restored the things in the room to their original state.
After Lingyun found out that he would not be stopped by the palace guards, he had another discussion with Liehui about the candidates who would go down to the underground space. However, in the end, Lingyun failed to win against Liehui, and still according to the original plan, Lingyun is now going to wait for Liehui at the phantom array that had been destroyed before. The reason why Liehui didn't let Lingyun go down to the underground space was very simple, because Nightstar had said that it was a task that required speed to complete, and although Nightstar didn't explain too much, Liehui still guessed a thing or two with the map in his hand.
When Blaze reappears, he is on the basement level, which is a labyrinth-like location according to the map, and the labyrinth passage changes every once in a while. That is to say, when there is no correct route, you must find the correct route in the interval of this maze change, otherwise you will be trapped in it all the time.
Liehui hadn't moved since he came to the basement of this palace, and now Liehui was at the beginning of a labyrinth, and he had to wait, wait for the labyrinth to change. Only after the maze has changed does Blaze have the most time trying to figure out the exit from the maze.
Otherwise, when Blaze entered the labyrinth with only half of the time left between changes, and the labyrinth changed before he could find the exit, then Blaze would be the equivalent of starting to explore the labyrinth again, and he didn't know where he was at this time.
