Chapter 16: The Book of Kings

It wasn't until the early hours of the third day that the door was finally opened, and Arian saw a glimmer of hope in the open door, and if she couldn't grasp this last hope, the elves would be condemned to death. Xue Yueji looked coldly at Yarian who was kneeling on the ground through the open door, her face was still the appearance of a 10,000-year-old iceberg, and she said coldly:

"Now tell me why I'm looking for the Lost Elves. ”

Jarion immediately replied respectfully:

"Back to Your Highness, we want Your Majesty to look for not only the lost elves, but also the elven clan's treasure book of the jungle. The Book of the Jungle is the treasure of our elves, and it contains all the fighting spirits, magic, archery skills, and history of the elves. The Book of the Jungle has always been kept by the Queen of the Elves and is the symbol of the Queen. However, about 160,000 years ago, Sophia Emmanilla Lanqi, the queen of the Elves at the time, was lost in the divine realm during the battle of the gods, and the Book of the Jungle disappeared with it. Before he was lost, Sofia Emmanilla Lanqi was already a master at the top of the Divine Pavilion, and after he was lost, he became a master of the main god level. However, after she was lost, Sofia Emmanilla Lanqi disappeared, and even the main god of nature at that time could not detect her existence. The elves also began to decline from that time. ”

Xue Yueji looked at Yarian coldly without a trace of emotional fluctuations, as if it was not a person sitting there, but a statue. Facing the iceberg-like Snowmoon Scarf, Yunna didn't know what to do, because now the Snow Moon Scar was in a rage, and now she was praying that the Snow Moon Scar could make a more rational decision no matter what. However, it seems that there are not many possibilities for Xue Yueji to make a more rational judgment.

However, when the dwarven king Hammer King Thunder Court Odin heard that the Elven Jungle Book was lost, he stood up in panic and looked at Aryan in surprise. Xue Yueji glanced at Lei Ge Odin coldly and asked lightly:

"Lei Ge, are you familiar with this jungle book?"

Ray Odin replied in horror:

"Back to Your Highness, legend has it that a long, long time ago, the Creation God left three books, the Book of the Sage, the Book of the Demon, and the Book of Balance. The three books are kept by three king-level gods, the god king keeps the book of the sage, the demon king keeps the book of the demon, and the dragon god keeps the book of balance. When the three king-level gods disappeared, they also kept the three books, but for some reason all three books were broken down and kept separately by each race. The Book of the Jungle of the Elves, the Book of Fire of our Dwarves, and the Book of the Sea of the Fish-People are all derived from the Book of the Sages. The Book of Rage of the Sea Clan, the Book of Beamon of the Orcs, and the Book of the Desert of the Sand Clan are derived from the Book of the Demons. The Book of the Holy Dragon of the Golden Dragon Clan and the Book of the Demon Dragons of the Dark Demon Dragon Clan are derived from the Book of Balance. Legend has it that when these books are combined, the Book of Kings is generated, and the translation records how the Lord God became the holy book of the King God. I don't know how many Lord Gods have fallen for these eight books over the years, but no matter how much they fight, these eight books have never left the race that guards them. There were also people who joined us to put these eight books together, but in the end we didn't figure out how to combine these eight books into the book of kings. ”

Xue Yueji's brows furrowed slightly, as a shortcut to becoming a king-level god, it is definitely something that makes all the main gods crazy, after all, after becoming the fourth king-level god who surpasses all the main gods, his status and belief can be greatly improved. Gods are not saints, but just a group of witch cultivators with or without the blood of the Wu clan. In the face of the temptation of growth, the gods will definitely not let go of this opportunity easily. But the fact that the eight races that guarded the eight books were not only alive and well, but that the dwarves had not even been affected by the war of the gods all along, made people suspicious. Under normal circumstances, this situation is absolutely impossible, even if the elves have the protection of the elven tree, those main gods will try their best to get their hands on the book of the jungle.

Yun Na, who had been silent on the side, suddenly asked:

"Didn't the Terrans have a book to guard? It stands to reason that the Terrans should have a guardian when they are so strong. Why didn't we have a book to guard it?"

Regor Odin frowned and thought for a long time and replied:

"I don't know about this, there is no record of humans in the Book of Fire. It seems that at the time of the differentiation of the Book of the Sage, the Book of the Demons, and the Book of Balance, human beings were still very weak and incapable of protecting such an important thing. ”

Outside the door, Arian said eagerly, as if she had remembered something:

"Yes! At that time, the Terrans also got a book! But it was gradually forgotten by the people! That is recorded on the sacred stone of our elven race! At that time, the Book of Balance was not only divided into the Book of the Holy Dragon and the Book of the Demon Dragon! At that time, because it was impossible for the dragon clan to divide into another book to protect the Book of Stars, the dragon god entrusted the Book of Stars to the most mysterious old man in the human race for safekeeping, waiting for the dragon clan to be returned to the dragon clan for safekeeping after the dragon clan became strong in the future! According to records, this human race disappeared after getting the Book of Stars, but they should not have been wiped out, but hidden, and became an unknown mysterious existence! At that time, the dragon god specially gave them the title of human dragon in order to make this human race have the ability to protect themselves, they were born to use the forbidden spell in dragon magic, and the lifespan can surpass that of ordinary dragons, and even our elf race, it is a group of human races that have been favored by the dragon god! But at the cost of their fertility, their fertility is so low that it's less than 10 percent of the average dragon! No one knows where they went! So there's no record of them in the records!"

Xue Yueji stood up suddenly and asked sharply:

"What did you just say was the name of the book that the Terrans were given?"

Arian trembled in panic and replied tremblingly:

"Back to Your Highness, the book that the Terran said to keep is called the Book of Stars, which is a divergence from the Book of Balance kept by the Dragon God. ”

Snow Moon Stared at Arian's eyes, which had changed color, and the faint light made people dare not look directly. Xue Yueji asked coldly:

"Let me ask you, did you find the Book of Stars when you gathered the nine books that were divided from the Book of the Sage, the Book of the Demons, and the Book of Balance?

Arianne recalled, recalling in the affirmative:

"Back to Your Highness, I can say with great certainty that the existence of the human dragon clan was not found on the holy stone of our elven clan at that time, although we all know that they do exist, but even if all the main gods at that time were mobilized, they did not find the human dragon clan who held the Book of Stars. For this reason, there was a great dispute between the main gods at that time, which led to the first war of the gods. ”

Xue Yueji asked with some doubts;

"You're saying that the cause of the First War of the Gods was because of these nine books?"

Arrian replied in the affirmative:

"It can be said that after the three king-level gods of the God King, the Demon King, and the Dragon God disappeared and left behind this book, the two worlds of gods and demons fell into a very chaotic state, and there was no real leader. For this reason, the main gods thought of gathering nine books to synthesize the Book of Kings, and wanted to be promoted to king-level gods to dominate the other main gods. However, because none of the main gods could successfully advance to the king level with the eight books, in the end, they could only decide by force who would replace the king-level gods to take charge of the main gods. ”

Xue Yueji asked solemnly:

"Do you recall when was the first astrologer appearance recorded on the sacred stone of the elves?"

Yariam said with great certainty:

"It should be in the autumn of the fourth year after the three king-level gods disappeared one after another, and this is very clearly recorded on the holy stone. For so many years, we elves have not given up looking for human dragons, and we are very clear about mysterious figures such as astrologers. The astrologers first appeared when they prophesied the first battle of the gods that would begin four hundred years later. At that time, no one really believed in the astrologers' prophecies, but when the battle of the gods really began, people realized that the astrologers' prophecies were true. ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Xue Yueji's mouth, and his excited right fist struck a long sigh of loss on the palm of his left hand. Seeing the changes in the snow moon mark, Yun Na's hanging heart finally let go, the crisis of the elf clan is now more than half of the past, and the rest depends on how the elf clan performs next. Yun Na poked her head out from behind Xue Yueji, tilted her head to look at Xue Yueji, who looked relieved, and asked mysteriously:

"Wood, do you want to say that astrologers are human dragons?"

Xue Yueji said without thinking:

"Do you still need to say this? You and I are also from Shenzhou, and you should also know that a large part of my Huaxia divination techniques are deduced according to astrological aspects. The human dragon clan got the Book of Stars, and neither magic nor witchcraft used the power of the stars to attack and defend, so it could only be used for divination. Since it is used for divination, the only one who is related to star divination is astrologers. Now it is known that the time of the appearance of astrologers is a period of time after the disappearance of the three king-level gods, if the astrologers are not human dragons, how to explain it? astrology, astrologers, the book of stars, and the human dragons with very strong strength, as long as you know a little bit of knowledge of star divination, you can deduce the connection between them. ”

Yun Na lost no time in striking Xue Yueji, and said rudely:

"It can't be a coincidence! There are countless talented people in my Huaxia, and the masters of the formation path have even evolved a lot of formations through the changes of the stars in the sky! And there are many spells that can attract the power of the stars to attack! How can you be sure that what is recorded in the Book of Stars must be astrology and nothing else?"

A helpless smile appeared at the corner of Xue Yueji's mouth, and she said indifferently:

"For many years, no one dared to talk to me like this, whether it was Xiaobu or Mo Ya, they had to show a restrained side to me. No matter who I am, even the god-level masters and even the priesthood and the Divine Pavilion left here have to take into account the elven tree and dare not make a mistake with me. And you are the only special existence in the world, no matter when, no matter what I am doing, no matter what my decision is, you can question it without any worries, and I have no right to refute it. You are the only person in the world who makes me feel helpless, no matter what decision you make, I have no choice but to obey, even if it is an arrangement for killing. It's been more than ten years, I've been changed too much by you, but you seem to be frozen forever at the moment you came here, and there has been no change at all. As if the erosion of time is completely ineffective for you, you simply do not change a little because of the passage of time. You are also the one who knows me best, and you can find the most correct way to contain me at all times. Tell me, what do you want to do? ”

Yun Na glanced at Yarian, who was still kneeling outside the door, Xue Yuechen shook her head helplessly, turned her head and said sharply:

"Get up. Don't embarrass me there!"

Yarian immediately stood up and stood respectfully outside the door, and Xue Yueji said coldly:

"I know you don't believe me, but the reason why you elves respect me is because the elven tree calls me Your Highness. It is impossible for me to easily believe the other party, after all, let a person from an unknown origin become a higher status than his ancestor, especially when the status of his ancestor is already very high, it is impossible for anyone to accept it easily. If you accept it like this, then you are a real failure, a waste product with no value in existence. ”

Hearing Snow Moon Scar's words, a trace of excitement flashed in Yarian's eyes, and after being evaluated by Snow Moon Scar, the status of the elf race will continue to rise, and everything before can be regarded as part of the test, which can be ignored. To be honest, their initial plan was for Snow Moon Scar to find those lost elves, and then raise their identities to suppress those lost elves and be killed by those lost elves. In this way, Snow Moon Scar, which makes them unwilling to accept and have to accept His Royal Highness, can disappear completely, and when the time comes, as long as they denounce those lost elves, and then hype up Snow Moon Scar's "great achievements", everything will be fine. However, they did not calculate that Xue Yueji was able to stay awake under their vigorous praise, not being blinded by superficial phenomena, and grasping a little insider thing through clues. Although it is only a little bit, but this little bit is enough to wipe out the elves. However, now it is not too bad to get such an evaluation as Snow Moon Scar, and it can even be rated as an excellent grade, which is not in the historical data.

Just when Yarian was still complacent and secretly rejoicing, Xue Yueji's words turned around and said coldly:

"But,"

Hearing the cold word "but", Arian's heart that had just been put down hung again, and her heart began to beat up, no matter how good the evaluation was, as long as there was a "but", it was possible to lose all the efforts made immediately. Xue Yueji paused slightly, and said coldly:

"But it is impossible for any person in a position of authority to allow what his subordinates have created to threaten him. ”

All of a sudden, Yarian's heart was cold, but she could only stand there and wait for Xue Yueji's next sentence. There is no way, no matter what the sentence of Snow Moon Scar is, they must bear it, who let them be deluded to challenge Snow Moon Scar's authority. If they succeed, no one will say anything, and the facts will gradually be drowned in the long river of history. After tens of thousands of years, no one knows the real history, and only what was compiled by the victors. But they failed, and now they have to face the wrath of the superiors, and even if they are highly rated, they can only face the judgment of the superiors. What are elves? The darlings of nature in the eyes of others, beautiful, noble, kind, all good words can be used to describe elves. But in the eyes of Xue Yueji, the elf is just a servant created by a low-level witch, a work of relatively precious materials, and it can even be said that it is a little rough. Xue Yueji was angry at the elves' actions, and now the fate of the elves was in his hands.

Xue Yueji said coldly:

"As the price of your wrong decision, the elven clan will all close its contact with the outside world from today, all elves will start to cultivate hard, and all elves whose strength has not risen by one level will disappear after ten years. I don't care what means you use, in ten years, all elves except you will have to rise one level. At the beginning of the war, you elves want me to rush to the front, I don't want a bunch of turrets that can only stand on the walls and shoot arrows down, I want guerrilla archers who can charge into battle. After the war, I will forgive as many elves as I can left, and those who can't do it will be eliminated directly. ”

Everyone's surprised eyes fell on Xue Yueji's body, and Arian knelt on the ground weakly and begged:

"Your Highness, please spare those children in the Misty Forest! They are innocent! Everything is my fault! Punish me if you want! Please spare those poor children!"

Xue Yueji said coldly:

"You should have thought about the consequences when you made your decision, and since it has happened, you have to face it for me. You are the servants of my Wu clan, and as a servant clan with the blood of the Wu clan, you should know what to bear after the rebellion. I, Xue Yueji, am not a good man and a woman, and I have given you the greatest hope by not ordering you to be exterminated now. I know that you elves grow very slowly, but it is not too difficult for you to move up a level in ten years. Do you think that the current elves may be able to influence the tide of the war in the middle of the war? Or more directly, do you think that the current elves can help me synthesize the Book of Kings? Now my goal is the Book of Kings, and you can think about the rest. ”

After saying that, Xue Yueji strode out, and disappeared behind the hill in a few steps. Arian looked at Yun Na for help, but what she got was Yun Na's helpless gaze.
