Ever since Garcia went to the king with the elf in his arms, he has been worried about what kind of punishment Lance will face next.

But he didn't expect the punishment to come so quickly and silently.

Lance vanished in front of him out of thin air.

The aqua-blue figure that had been holding the elf egg before disappeared from the blink of an eye, leaving a bright red elf egg hanging on the branch of the Tree of Life.

Garcia, who reacted that this qiē was not an illusion, suddenly changed his face, and quickly jumped off the tree of life and rushed out of the forbidden land.

Seriously, he was too worried that the king would expel Lance from the elves in a fit of rage after seeing the elves' miserable condition, although in these thousands of years, Garcia had never seen the king have had any major emotional fluctuations.

Even in the war thousands of years ago, in the face of the thousands of troops of the demon race, the king did not change color at all, and with a slight wave of his hand, the demon clan was wiped out at his fingertips.

The Elven King Anse El, that is a powerful being who is so strong that he is so awe-inspiring that he can't even worship his soul at his feet.

Garcia had always thought that the god-like king would always sit on the throne without the slightest change, but the accident came so quickly that the king would take the newborn obviously problematic elf as a student.

The relationship between the elven teacher and the student has always been a bit evil. Although he never said it, Garcia, whose brain circuits are inherently different from other elves, really thinks so.

Aren't Lance and Raphael a couple close at hand?

So Garcia can't be sure that he finally accepted a student elf king, and whether it will be special for the newborn elf named Jade.

This will directly determine the fate of Lance next.

Garcia had to sweat for Lance in the bottom of his heart.

Fortunately, when Garcia stepped on the formation and rushed outside the forbidden land, he once again saw the familiar figure of Lance.

Finding that Lance did not have the slightest wound on his body, Garcia breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"What's going on? How could you suddenly disappear from the tree of life? Garcia asked Lance.

Lance ignored Garcia's anxiety, and after chanting the magic of entering the forbidden land over and over again, but all of them failed, he finally gave Garcia a straight look, "Obviously, I have lost the right to enter the forbidden land. ”

Garcia was stunned, and was a little surprised for a while - there was no need to think about it, the entire elf clan could do this silently, and only the king was an elf.

The location of the Tree of Life has always been open to all elders of the clan, but Lance is now unable to enter, indicating that he has lost his status as an elder.

Seeing Lance's expression, he obviously understood something, Garcia found that his eyes were clear, and his expression was as cold and indifferent as usual, obviously very sober, so he finally sighed, "I know that the elf was born not long ago, and he is a student of the king, why do you still impulsively hurt him?" If he really dies because of you, you really won't get to see Raphael again. ”

Lance lost the right to enter the location of the Tree of Life because of impulse, and naturally it was impossible to watch over the bright red egg at any time, but Garcia knew how much Lance was obsessed with that egg since Lance hurt the little jade before, but now there is no possibility of getting close to the egg, Garcia can hardly imagine how annoyed Lance will be in his heart.

But, to his surprise, after hearing his words, Lance's voice was still as calm as ever, as cold and self-contained as autumn raindrops falling on the rocks, "He'll be fine." ”

Seeing Garcia look at him with a rare look of doubt, Lance repeated again, "He's going to be fine, if I really want to hurt him, do you think Bai will have a chance to take him away?" ”

Garcia was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Lance meant.

What is the power of the "Frost Thorn", in the war a thousand years ago, Garcia had already seen clearly, if Lance really wanted to poison the elf before, then the elf would definitely die on the spot and return to the tree of life, and there was no possibility of letting Bai save him.

It's just that in this way, his brows are tightly wrinkled, and Garcia suddenly realizes that he doesn't seem to know Lance, "Then why are you doing this?" ”

Garcia had always felt strange when Lance had whipped before.

Elves who are good at water magic have always been calmer and more organized than other elves.

Since he met Lance, except for the time when Raphael was killed a thousand years ago, Garcia has never seen Lance out of control.

When Lance hurt the elf, he thought that Lance would do such an impulsive and reckless thing because Raphael was about to go crazy.

But Lance's comparably calm appearance now overturned his previous conclusion.

"Because," Lance whispered, looking down at his hands, "because the moment I saw that red egg, I realized that I didn't want to wait any longer." ”

“…… Garcia, you don't know, if you come half a minute later, I might smash that egg with my own hands......"

For a moment, Garcia wondered if he had misheard.

Because Lance, who he watched grow up, would say that he wanted to smash the elf egg.

"Are you crazy?" Garcia looked at Lance in disbelief, because smashing the elf egg was equivalent to strangling the egg that was still in gestation, and it was a deep sin that the elf could not forgive than hurting the elf.

Garcia felt that he barely knew Lance, and he was also an elf, how could Lance have such a terrible idea of killing his own kind?!

"You think I'm scary now, don't you?" Looking at his slender and smooth hands, Lance said slowly: "I also feel terrible, I am even about to do it a moment before you arrive...... I can't control my crazy thoughts! ”

"If that was really Mr. Raphael's egg, would I have killed him with my own hands?!"

Looking at Garcia with despair in his eyes, Lance, who had always been calm and self-controlled, his voice trembled for the first time, "...... Garcia, I can't control myself......"

"Ever since Raphael left me, a devil has lived in my heart...... For thousands of years, I have been looking in the direction of the top of the Tree of Life, thinking that it was Teacher Raphael, and the first time I saw Jade, I knew that he was not! ”

"Teacher Raphael is a liar! He promised me that he would always be by my side! But in the end, he never came back! He didn't even let me see him for the last time, I didn't even find his body......"

For the first time in a thousand years, Garcia saw tears welling up in Lance's eyes.

Even when Raphael was gone, and only the spear was recovered, Lance only had red eyes.

Garcia thought that he, Lance, like other elves, didn't take "life and death" too seriously, but later when he saw Lance going to the Tree of Life every day for a thousand years, waiting for the egg to be born, Garcia finally understood that in Lance's heart, Raphael had never been put down at all.

He was still waiting for Raphael to return.

His throat felt like he was choked, and Garcia lost his words for a moment.

It wasn't until Lance turned around and opened his mouth that Garcia's chest seemed to be blocked that he finally regained a trace of flowing air.

"I can't control myself, but I can't convince myself not to pay attention to the newborn elf egg, it's too dangerous for both of us, so I hurt that elf."

Turning around and seeing Garcia's eyes full of disapproval, Lance smiled wryly, "I didn't mean to hurt him, when I saw him approaching the egg, my hand moved on its own, if it was you who approached at that time, it would have been the same result." ”

But you didn't do it...... Garcia couldn't help but want to argue for Lance, but Lance was calmer than he thought, "That's my crime, I won't shirk and escape, and I won't be unwilling in the slightest." ”

Looking at the void in the distance, as if he could see the outline of the tree of life through the endless sea of trees, Lance rarely smiled at Garcia, but there was a lingering deep exhaustion in his eyes, "Garcia, next, I may have to ask you for help to go and see that egg every day." ”

Garcia pursed his lips, trying to persuade Lance not to be too persistent, after all, no one can guarantee that this egg must be Raphael's reincarnation, and the previous elf is still there, and he doesn't want to see Lance fall into the abyss of disappointment again.

Lance didn't pay attention to Garcia's words, looked at the direction of the palace deep in the sea of trees, and said lightly: "In a short period of time, I will probably not be allowed to enter Azeroth again. ”

Garcia's face was finally completely ugly this time, he was also an elder of the elf clan, he knew too well how serious the crime of hurting his fellow clan was, he was speechless for a long time, and finally he could only reassure Lance that he would help him go to the Tree of Life every day to see the egg, and would send him the latest information on the egg every day.

So, when Bai hurried to the entrance of the forbidden land and informed Lance of the king's edict, Lance just knelt down on one knee and accepted the king's punishment in silence, and then, without even returning home, took the "frost thorn" that Raphael gave him, and went to the misty forest to garrison alone.

After he left, Garcia told White all of Lance's previous words.

When he heard that Lance almost wanted to destroy the egg, Bai was also shocked in his heart.

But like Garcia, he knows a lot about Lance and Rafael's past, and when he hears it, he can't help but feel sorry in his heart.

It's just, "Looking at what Lance means, it doesn't seem that he has given up on the fire-based elf egg." ”

Garcia nodded with a slightly gloomy face, "But if he has been stationed in the Misty Forest, he will not be qualified to be a freshman elf teacher at all." ”

Bai had known Lance and Raphael for thousands of years, and he couldn't bear to see the two of them miss it again and again, so he pondered for a while before he said with difficulty: "I will mention this matter to Little Jade, if he can persuade the king, Lance will have the possibility of returning to Azeroth." ”

Garcia raised his eyebrows slightly, "That little elf has so much influence on the king?" ”

When Bai heard him call Little Jade, his face immediately straightened, and he looked at Garcia extremely seriously, "That little elf in your mouth, his name is Jade, and he is Wang's only student. ”

Seeing Garcia throwing a little disappreciatively, Bai's eyes suddenly became sharp, "Garcia, I know that you have some prejudices against Little Jade because of Lance, but Little Jade has only been born long after all, and he doesn't even know anything about Lance and Raphael's past, but today he was seriously injured by Lance and almost died." From the beginning to the end of this incident, Xiao Jade is an innocent victim, and you and I who watched this qiē happen will not escape its guilt when we dig deeper. ”

Seeing that a trace of astringency finally flashed in Garcia's eyes, some words rolled in his throat for a long time, and finally came out in vain, "I have always been proud of the noble blood of my clan. Unlike other races on the continent, regardless of the length of life, strength or weakness, or attributes, all elves have the same mother, and they are also very united internally. ”

"But Garcia, can you tell me that since when the power has made us so arrogant that we can no longer see those who are weaker than us?!"

The resounding words echoed in his ears like an alarm bell, and Garcia couldn't help but hang his head and fall into deep thought.

Bai Yao looked in the direction of the elven palace, looked at the blood stains that still remained on his robe, thought of Xiao Jade's dying appearance today, and those eyes that had lost their brilliance, and then thought that he would have to embarrass him for Lance's affairs in the future, and his mood suddenly became even heavier.
