Chapter 53: Divine Revelation

Against this backdrop, Cecilia hid in her cabin every day, and with a few of the priests of Hilo who had escaped from the central mountains with her, she prayed to the gods for guidance from the Father. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Actually, this kind of work has been going on for many months, and since leaving the Central Mountain Range, this high-ranking priest has hardly dared to do anything, and has only prayed every day.

At first, the fallen elves had great hopes for this. People who have been uprooted from their homes desperately need spiritual guidance from the gods.

But how can divine revelation be so easy to obtain? For months, Cecilia's prayers yielded little fruit. The elves floating on the sea, from the initial hope to the later numbness, are now not far from despair.

Not to mention, there was a couple yesterday who committed suicide by jumping into the sea after leaving a desperate suicide note.

But no one could have imagined that in the middle of the night, the great elven father would really descend on the divine revelation!

At this moment, the deck of the Golden Leaf, which should have been cold, was already full of elves. Turquoise spiritual lanterns filled the entire ship. On the upper floor of the captain's chamber, the High Priestess Cecilia, guarded by several Cult guards, read the revelation to the elves gathered on the deck.

There are not many hymns that can be understood in the way of the ancient upper elves, but the language of music, the psalms born to praise the gods, have a high charm in themselves, and even if they do not understand the meaning, they can appreciate the holiness in them.

After the chanting of the hymn, it is the real meat play.

Cecilia said: "God has mercy on all, the Star Bless Spirit Clan, the great Father of the Elves, has sent an oracle to establish a new Elven kingdom for us on the sea. Follow the Divine Messenger and rebuild your home! ”

The elves below boiled: "Follow the oracle and rebuild your home!" ”

A joyful banquet began on the Golden Leaf. After months of repression, under the constant pain of losing their companions, the more than 200 survivors almost fell into a state of despair, and no one knew how long their fugitive life would last, let alone when they would be able to truly settle down. They can only pin their hopes on praying to the gods, everyone knows that this is an unreliable thing, with the power of the Nancy royal court, in the large-scale prayer activities carried out every three years, the gods can reply to very few cases, let alone in such a humble environment, a priest of the eighth level with a few people who have not even reached the high-level level of prayer activities.

But hope came when everyone was despairing, and every elf was undoubtedly in ecstasy: there can be no mistake in God's guidance.

There are very few who can stay calm in such situations, but Pehince is definitely one of them.

She felt that it was definitely a good thing for her compatriots who had been suppressed for a long time to be able to take advantage of such good news to relax. At least, from today onwards, there should be no more people who can't bear the pressure and commit suicide by jumping into the sea, right? But she herself came out of her joy in a very short time. It was she who brought more than four hundred elves out of the Central Mountain Range, and she had already lost half of the people along the way, and no one blamed her, but the pressure in her own heart was greater than anyone else's.

Therefore, at such a time when everyone can be happy and indulgent, she is the only one who quickly calms down.

She approached Cecilia and asked, "What did you just say...... What's going on? ”

Cecilia put down the wine glass in her hand and said, "It is the will of the gods." The revelation says that a man who was favored by the Father established an elven colony on a deserted island called Komya, and in that settlement, there was a tree of life! ”

"The Tree of Life?!" Pehin was a little frightened, "Really? ”

Cecilia's face became a little serious: "Do you think that the Father's divine revelation is wrong, or do you think I am lying?" ”

"Of course not, of course ......not," Pei Xinsi said again and again, how many years of friendship, she knows that her friend is good at everything, but he is a special follower on weekdays, he doesn't like to joke and can't joke, he is a very old-fashioned guy. Of course, she knew that Cecilia would not tell a lie, and she would not suspect that the will of the gods would be wrong, and she had asked that before, mainly because she was too surprised.

The Tree of Life is almost as important in the hearts of the elves as the Elven Father, Shiloh. Legend has it that after being born between heaven and earth, the first thing created by Father Shiloh was the Tree of Life, and then, relying on the Tree of Life, he created the entire natural world, and the elves are the products of the highest level of nature and the closest people to the Father.

In addition to its noble religious status, the powerful power of the Tree of Life itself is of practical significance to the elves. Elves are known to live a long life, and by far one of the longest-lived elves, the guardian of the Elven Kingdom of the Forest of Ilsyth, one of the founders of the Northern Alliance, the legendary Druid Israel, who lived for four thousand years. Four thousand years ago, human beings were still in the stage of city-state civilization, and even such a thing as a state had not yet appeared. At that time, the most powerful race on the continent was the orcs, and the elves had united humans with orcs to fight for life and death for countless years. It was not until the last one or two thousand years, after the development of human civilization, that the orcs were gradually driven from the core area of the continent to the eastern wasteland.

Even if you don't mention Israel, ordinary elves have a life of about 800 years. On the one hand, of course, it has something to do with the racial superiority of the elves, who themselves are immortals. But there is a very peculiar point, that is, the elves who live in human society generally do not live for more than 400 years before aging and dying. This has nothing to do with the strength of the individual, the reason why you can live for 800 years, or even thousands of years in the elf realm, and only 400 years in human society, is the tree of life.

The vitality emanating from the Tree of Life is very compatible with the life characteristics of the elves, and within the range of the magic radiation of the Tree of Life, the life span of the elves will be greatly extended. This is the most important point of the elves' terrifying longevity! It is precisely because of this that outside the elven forest, it is rare to see other elves, and unless they are banished, there are very few elves who can't think about it and will desperately lose half of their life to leave the forest.

Now, Cecilia said, how is it not surprising that there is a tree of life on that island of Komya?

Regardless of whether it's praise or scolding, I like the book review area to be lively, and don't greet my family (I haven't found out yet).

Faith, God, it's easy to lead to war, so it's good for everyone to speak freely.
