"Hostile prompts?"

Raymond looked at the system prompt and was shocked.

He thought it was going to be like some kind of "Pandora's box", and when he opened it, some monster would emerge from it.

But when you look closely, it's just a glittering cup in the box, and there's nothing weird...

And the source of that hostility is the Elven Empress Isa!

"Not good!"

Seeing this, Raymond secretly said in his heart that something was wrong, "She... Is this a demon? ”

At this moment, Empress Isa's crystal white skin suddenly burst into a black gas, like ink dripping into clear water, and it was pitch black in the blink of an eye. It seems that a divine elf with pure blood has suddenly degenerated into a "night elf" with blue and black skin?

Seeing this scene in front of him, Raymond immediately understood what was happening.

Because this sign in front of him was seen when he stripped the ghast for the elven prince Iggy in the "City of Eternal Night"!

This is a sign that demonic energy has entered the body!

"What the hell is going on? The Elven Empress, who actually has a demon soul in her body? Could it be that I brought the box... Got her pitted? ”

Countless horrified thoughts flashed in Raymond's heart, and he was even more worried that if this demigod-level powerhouse suddenly became demonized, wouldn't he be going to burp every minute?

Just as he was about to shout and attract the attention of the elven guards outside the main hall, the elven queen on the throne stood up and waved her hand at him, signaling him not to make a fuss.

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry."

Obviously, she was well aware of her situation, and she was used to seeing it.

Just before the demonic aura turned her pretty face completely iron-blue, she calmly took out a silver dagger... Then, under Raymond's stunned gaze, he did not hesitate to cut a bloody cut on his wrist.

For a moment, a stream of inky black blood shot out from his wrist and splashed all over the ground.

Obviously, in order to expel the black blood as soon as possible, Empress Isha also deliberately used her magic power to force it out. Moreover, this practice also has a miraculous effect, quickly curbing the erosion of black gas.

"It's... Phlebotomy for poison? ”

Raymond saw her method of slitting her wrists and bleeding, and immediately thought that this method seemed to be some witch doctor's method of quickly curing poison.

After severe poisoning, poisonous blood is released, which can avoid the spread of toxins and prevent poisonous gases from attacking the heart. However, although this method works very quickly, it can hurt the source... It's definitely not a conventional treatment.

At this time,

Raymond looked at Empress Isa's face after bloodletting suddenly turned from black to white, and the system's hostile prompts disappeared, and he was really relieved at this moment.

But at the same time, he was also puzzled, what the hell was going on?

Looking at her skillful appearance of cutting her wrists and releasing poison, it seems that this is not the first time?

......

"This is my original injury, and it has nothing to do with you."

After relieving herself, Empress Isha explained to Raymond first.

Thinking about it, she said a little apologetically, "If you could... I hope you don't give out the news of my injury to anyone else. Even if it's General Mungo, don't tell him. ”

"It's all like this... Still want to keep it secret? ”

Hearing this, Raymond suddenly felt the heaviness in these words, and instantly understood her intentions.

The elven queen in front of her is not only the strongest person of the elf race, but also the spiritual pillar of the entire race against the demons.

If others knew that she had been hit hard, it would definitely shake the morale of the army.

However, it is obvious that this is a sign of "evil spirit possession", and she bled and healed her wounds every time to temporarily suppress demonic erosion. But every time, it will damage the power of the source... How long will she last?

"I'm not going to tell anyone anything that's going on here."

Although there was some complication in his heart, Raymond nodded, intending to keep the secret for her.

Turning his face, he thought about it for a moment and proposed, "That... Empress, I mean, if it's an evil spirit, I think I can do a little help. ”

"I do have a 'demon' in me. It was the result of my plot three years ago when I was fighting the [Horror Lord] Utamo. This time the demon army attacked, in fact, the demon clan wanted to confirm the extent of my injuries..."

Hearing this, Empress Isha shook her head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Captain Raymond. But you can strip the demon spirit from Iggy's body, but you can't heal my injuries. After all, you're too low now... If I want to strip the demon spirit, I have to release it. But this kind of 'demon spirit' extracted from the corpses of gods and demons is not suppressed by the demigod-level high-level law, and others can't do anything at all. Once released, it will take away my consciousness in an instant, and you won't have time to strip it off..."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Raymond also figured out the truth.

How can an "evil spirit" that can make even a demigod powerhouse helpless be so easy to solve.

If this Empress Isha falls into the devil, who can stop her?

"Thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to worry about my injuries."

Empress Isha seems to have no hope of healing her injuries at all, and she has no intention of caring at all, she only cares about the safety of her community.

Turning her face, the elven queen looked at the glittering "wine glass" in the box and smiled with satisfaction.

She said with a high spirit, "This chalice is exactly the same as the one recorded in the ancient books, it is really the legendary dwarf seal holy relic!" The Gap in the Demon Seal... Maybe it can be solved completely! ”

【Ding! 'Isha Georg Kirchtel' has +2 increased opinion towards you, and the current relationship is "neutral". 】

"Did you really find it?"

Hearing those words, Raymond was also happy in his heart.

A true eye was thrown over, and the name of the cup in the box was immediately revealed.

【The Holy Grail of Life (Mythology)】

Explanation: An ancient sealed relic guarded by the dwarves; The water in the cup is the legendary 'Holy Fountain of Life' that can increase lifespan, and drinking holy water will give you +50 lifespan;

What surprised Raymond even more... Water in a cup!

"It's... Holy water that can increase lifespan by 50 years? ”

When he saw something that could increase his lifespan, a ray of essence burst out of his eyes.

At the beginning, he twisted the "Rubik's Alchemy Cube" with his own hands and reduced his life by 30 years, which is still fresh in his memory.

Although he later converted into a blood clan, theoretically his longevity increased greatly, and he learned the third uncle's [Demon Ape Qigong], and he was good at health maintenance... Normally, his lifespan should be higher than it should be.

But with the hidden attribute of Shouyuan, no one can tell where the end is.

I can't guarantee that his original upper life limit was 50 years, and then twisting the Rubik's Cube became 20 years old. Although the blood clan and qigong increased his longevity by a few years, he still had to die young...

But now, if you drink the water in this cup, you can clearly know that his upper limit of life expectancy has increased by 50 years!

This means that even if he should have died tomorrow and drank the water in the glass, he was sure that he would live at least another 50 years!

The system data will not be fake, if it really has an extra 50 years of life, Raymond will be able to wake up laughing even if he is dreaming...

What can these lifespans come for there?

If he can use the [Infinite Dream] skill to cultivate his spiritual power, his lifespan of 50 years is enough to increase his spiritual power tenfold and become the world's top mental power master!

......

apparently

Empress Isha on the throne keenly caught Raymond's stunning gaze when she looked at the Holy Grail, and asked in a slightly surprised tone, "Captain Raymond, do you know this holy artifact?" ”

"No, it's the first time I've seen this Holy Grail too."

Raymond is also embarrassed, communicate with the big guy, don't hide it.

He looked at the Holy Grail with burning eyes and said directly, "But... I have a special ability to feel the vitality of the spring water contained in this chalice. It is said to be the 'fountain of life' that increases longevity after drinking. ”

Hearing this, Empress Isha also nodded slightly and confirmed, "Not bad." This is indeed recorded in the ancient books of our elven race, when the dwarven god craftsman forged this holy grail and obtained the blessing of the goddess of life, the cup can condense a drop of 'fountain of life' for ten thousand years, which can increase the life expectancy..."

After a pause, she glanced at Raymond thoughtfully, and asked in a soft tone, "This Holy Grail is the treasure you found, but it is indeed very important to us elves. Captain Raymond, may I take the liberty of begging you to give this chalice to our people? ”

This is not rude, and it gives Raymond enough face.

"That's nature."

Raymond nodded and gladly agreed.

Not to mention that this thing has not been unsealed by Queen Isa, he is just an iron lump when he holds it, and it is completely useless.

What's more, although this Holy Grail is an artifact, it is only a secondary item without any attack amplification. As for its properties of condensing a drop of holy water for 10,000 years... For human beings who have only lived for a hundred years, they are almost useless.

What he cares about is only the cup of "Fountain of Life" that has been condensed in this cup for countless years.

As soon as these words came out, system prompts followed.

【Ding! 'Isha Georg Kirchtel' has +10 increased opinion of you, and the current relationship is "friendly". 】

"Thank you for your generosity, Captain Raymond."

When Empress Isha heard this, a gentle smile slowly appeared on her pretty face, which had always been unwavering.

Just this smile will captivate the country and the city, making people feel like a spring breeze and numb to the bones.

She naturally understood the hope for an increase in lifespan in his eyes, and said with a smile in her beautiful eyes: "Shouyuan is not as urgent as your human needs for our elven race... Our people want to use this chalice to make up for the lack of seals, but this 'fountain of life' doesn't have to..."

When he said this, Raymond's face was happy.

He knew that the Empress had to hold the shelf of the superior, so he took the initiative to put forward his own needs along the topic, "Honorable Empress, if you can, can you give this spring water to you?" ”

"That's nature, it's what you have."

Empress Isha readily agreed.

Then she thought of something, and said, "Since you've been to the 'Temple of Nature', then... Come with me. ”

Raymond naturally had no reason to refuse, and bowed, "It's an honor..."

......

Raymond drank the water in his glass, and as expected, the system prompted him to increase his life by 50 years, which made him happy.

Although lifespan does not directly increase strength, for him, 50 years of lifespan is enough for him to do a lot of things.

Like the blood bloodline, sucking blood can increase its own attributes, and the longer you live, the stronger your strength will be; For example, [Demon Ape Qigong], this exercise of infinite superposition of true qi, the longer you live, the more powerful it will become. Moreover, if you want to become stronger quickly, using [Infinite Dream] to meditate on spiritual power is also a big shortcut, and the only thing that needs to be consumed is lifespan...

All in all, the 50-year lifespan given away for nothing is even more useful to Raymond than for him to directly advance to an extraordinary level!

Even if you can't fight a strong enemy in the future, you can survive the other party by life?

Not long after,

Empress Isha uses a space spell to open a door to space, and then the two of them are once again in the world of underground magma.

Revisiting the old place, Raymond also has a special taste.

He had thought that if he had found the lost sealing relic, Empress Isha would summon the elven elders or something, make some sealing ceremonies, and announce this exciting news by the way...

I didn't expect Empress Isha to come with such a small shrimp as him, and it was a little unbelievable in a hurry.

After some conversation, he realized that the situation of the elves was not optimistic.

......

The "Temple of Nature" is a forbidden place for the elves.

This is the most critical place to seal the ancient demon gods, and no one is allowed to set foot except for the previous empresses.

Previously, the "Dragon Hunting Troupe" obtained the space magic door from the fourth floor of the dungeon and suddenly broke into the temple of nature, which also scared Queen Isha a a lot.

Fortunately, they ran into the Capone by accident at the time, otherwise Isa, who was already injured, would not have been able to stop the greedy Tucker Battle.

If the seal is broken again, it will cause great trouble. At that time, it will not only affect the entire Elven Secret Realm, but will also be a devastating disaster for the entire human world.

However, that incident also sounded a wake-up call for Isha.

Originally, she thought that this underground lava space could only be entered from the elf king capital "Senyimata", but now it seems that there may be an unknown secret door left by the demons in ancient times.

Therefore, after obtaining the [Grail of Life of Van Saidi], she did not inform anyone in the clan, and took Raymond through the magic gate alone to the Temple of Nature.

Even if she herself is possessed by demons, she doesn't dare to guarantee how many of the elves are corrupted by demonic energy.

Once the clansmen are summoned to discuss this matter, the news leaks out, and there will be chaos.

Those lurking demons will definitely find a way to break the seal...

The reason why it was so hasty was to strike before the hidden demons in the city did not react!

And she needed someone who could be in case of an emergency.

As a human being, Raymond is not bound by the ancestral teachings of the elves. Anyway, he'd been to the forbidden land, so he became the best candidate for a temporary grab bag.

......

Although Raymond had been to the lava world before, he had not been able to enter this "temple of nature" made entirely of magic crystals last time.

This time, I followed Empress Isha and had the privilege of personally experiencing the interior of the temple.

It's no wonder that the "Dragon Hunting Troupe" would rob the things here at that time, even if it was Raymond, he couldn't take his eyes off the treasures in the palace.

If you break a piece of magic crystal here, you can probably sell it for the price of a high-grade magic crystal, and if the entire temple is sold together, it is definitely an unimaginable astronomical amount...

And when the sealing altar was raised, the light of the artifact brightened the blinding eye.

On the five feet of the intricate pentagram formation, except for one vacant, the other four corners are each placed with a crown, a beast tooth, a ring and a staff...

Each of these four items is an "ancient artifact" with an effect against the sky.

Each piece is enough to make the world's top transcendents kill red eyes...

The sealing formation lit up, and Empress Isha said with emotion: "In ancient times, the Five Clans Alliance spent a lot of resources to build this temple in order to seal the Demon God. But later, because of the betrayal of the dwarf patriarch, the formation was missing, which led to the leakage of the power of the demon god, which caused a great disaster that had plagued our elf race for countless years. And where 'Rossi Volcano' is, it is the projection of the sealing crack, which breeds a large number of high-level monsters..."

As she spoke, she carefully grasped the chalice in her hand and slowly placed it on the altar.

When the bottom of the Grail matched the wind on the altar perfectly, Isha let out a long breath. She sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that in my generation, I could find the sealed holy relic that had been lost for countless years. Finally, the fate of our elves has taken a turn..."

When she said this, she looked at Raymond with grateful eyes, and the curvature of the corners of her mouth rose higher and higher.

It was as if the burden of fate on her shoulders had suddenly been lifted, and the tense expression on her face became more and more relaxed, and finally turned into a kind smile.

Her eyes were sincere, and her voice was soft, "Thank you, Captain Raymond, for bringing hope to our race... I, Isha Georg Kirchtel, on behalf of our elves, would like to express my sincerest gratitude for your help. ”

As she spoke, the supreme empress bowed slightly towards Raymond and gave an elegant thank you salute.

Raymond, a human man, is perhaps the first and only person in this world to see the Elven Empress's bright smile.

He also had to admit that

That smile is full of charm.

......

After the chalice was placed in the missing formation, the entire temple suddenly lit up with a dazzling green light, and the rolling force of nature surged towards the altar like a solid wave.

Gradually, a magic vortex was formed, countless ancient magic runes flashed, and streams of natural divine power were drawn out...

And on the side of the "Temple of Nature", the gate that was locked by huge iron chains suddenly shook. It was as if the demon god trapped there was about to wake up after being stimulated, struggling to escape. The mysterious symbols on the sealable chains became brighter and brighter, and eventually one became ten, ten became hundreds, and overlapped... The dense chains eventually sealed the entire gate, and then dragged it into the scorching lava and vanished.

At this point, the seal is completely completed, and the body of the demon god is no longer possible to reappear in the world.

When Empress Isha saw this scene, her beautiful eyes flashed, and she was obviously excited.

She muttered, "It's been countless years, and it's finally succeeded..."

【Ding! 'Isha Georg Kirchtel' has +20 increased opinion towards you, and the current relationship is "very friendly". 】
