Chapter 10 Inheritance
"Galazeril ......"
"What?"
Lil suddenly came back to his senses and found that the seven elders were staring at him. He realized that he had just wandered again, but he didn't know that this time, they called him a few times.
"Great Elder, you have also seen it, please forgive me for not being able to understand your choice."
One of the elders was clearly unhappy with Leel's performance.
"Although Loch's wisdom in the past is worrying, this time it makes sense, I can name a few names, and if you allow it, we might as well take them out and discuss them."
……
Lil was indifferent to the questioning of several people, and this time he did not bow his head and wander, but calmly looked at the seven people in front of him, like an outsider. Present here is the supreme commander of the entire elven race since the royal court era, guarded by seven mature and powerful elves, and before this, Lil had not even heard of this organization, only the Council of Elders.
"I know you have doubts," said the Great Elder after allowing the two present to fully express their opinions, "In that case, isn't your existence for such a situation?" Seven is at least enough to guarantee no draw. So, give you a minute to think, and then we'll vote. ”
Soon, the results of the vote came out, five against two, except for the two who questioned it, everyone else voted in favor. The Loch duo no longer questioned it, and although it seemed that the form of the vote was simple, since it was a public choice of the seven people, the result was unquestionable and they had to accept it.
"Mithrandil," one of them bowed slightly, "I voted for it, but it was based on the trust I have placed in you for hundreds of years. This young man has been practicing with you for half a year, and I believe that since you have stuck to your original choice, there must be a good reason. I hope you can share it with us, after all, in the next period of time, Lil will follow the six of us to learn separately, and the subjective will will determine the results. ”
To this, the Great Elder nodded.
"Don't you think this kid behaves too naturally in front of us old fellows?"
Everyone was stunned, and they didn't seem to realize this problem, after all, they already represented the highest ruling class of the elves, and their strength and majesty were far above the ordinary tribal leaders. They immediately cast their eyes back at the young man sitting at the end of the table, and the other person didn't seem to feel anything unusual.
"To do this, the first thing you need is to be calm and forbearing, and I think this Lear has met the standard."
The expressions of several people changed slightly, as if accepting such an explanation.
"In addition, if you don't use your hole cards, in a head-to-head battle, his combat power is already equal to mine."
The Great Elder said such earth-shattering words lightly, and this time, not only XX, but all the remaining six people showed more or less surprised looks.
"How is that possible!" That's what most people think.
The Great Elder didn't explain much, and said directly, "You can use the next time to verify it for yourself. ”
"Third, this little guy knows the outside world better than we do."
"There is no doubt about this, it can be seen from Galazegohn's bloodline, if that stinky boy is here, why should we still train this little guy."
At last, Lear had a look on his face, and he suddenly felt that the old man who had just raised the objection was a little cuter, because he had the same attitude as old Ghosn on the matter. He didn't think there was anything about Loch's doubts about his ability, and what made him unhappy was that he was not prepared at all, so he openly opposed the Great Elder, and did not even form a gang in advance. With this IQ, it only took the Great Elder two minutes to get it easily. It didn't matter if Loch was stupid, but he ruined his last chance to escape with such an understatement, and then that mission really became his mission, which made him feel a little loveless, and before he knew it, he was stunned again.
……
When Lil regained consciousness, the moon was already hanging high. The elven sanctuary, floating with a pale green light, seems to reflect the stars in the sky. There were only two people left, the Great Elder and him, and the Great Elder was leaning back in his chair at this time, apparently asleep. He suddenly felt a little guilty, whether he was willing to accept the task or not, at least the old man had believed in his abilities from the beginning. Just like the Terran teacher, the Great Elder was already his teacher.
"Woke up?"
It was the Grand Elder who asked, and he stretched and looked at Leel on the other side.
"I'm sorry, I ......"
The Great Elder waved his hand and slowly stood up. Lil hurriedly got up, stepped forward a few steps forward to support the elderly elder, and the two of them walked in front of the elf spring together. The Great Elder waved his staff, and they disappeared into the ruined royal court.
"Follow me."
Lil looked up, and the stars were already above him, far above. The blue was so familiar that he recognized it at a glance. In the past six months of following the Great Elder's cultivation, he had seen too many magics, but at this time, he still felt a little uneasy, because the position he was in now was a vast space under the elven spring.
The Great Elder walked ahead, and with each step he took, a little light stirred up, as if it disturbed the ghosts of the place. Lil followed him cautiously, not even daring to take a wrong step, and completely followed the footprints left by the Great Elder. There was a fog all around him, and there was only this path out of front of him. He felt the pressure on his body increasing, and then the figure of the Great Elder in front of him suddenly became illusory.
I don't know how long it took, I don't know when, Lil stopped, three meters away, the Great Elder slowly turned around, and the throne was only one step away from him, within reach, and something on the throne was calling him. Lil suddenly felt that the Great Elder's face was a little strange, a little hideous, and a strange feeling welled up in his heart. The feeling grew stronger, and he began to walk forward. Step by step, only three meters away, but it became so far away, and his steps became heavier and heavier, and by the last two or three steps, it was already as heavy as a thousand pounds. Then, finally, he saw what was on the throne, and it was a crown. At this moment, he stretched out his hands and approached the crown that was close at hand, little by little.
Suddenly, a bit of blush ran down the corner of his mouth. And he finally stopped. Cold sweat soaked through his clothes, and the short distance of three steps made him pant like a cow. And the Great Elder smiled with satisfaction.
"Kid, congratulations on passing the test."
Lil rolled his eyes, not realizing how stupid he was. This is obviously a place that has a great influence on spiritual power, and he has only one consciousness just now, and that is to get the crown and sit on the throne. If he hadn't bitten his tongue at the last moment, the spoilers would have taken him out of that feeling of greed, and he might still be in the illusion by now. At this time, all his strength seemed to be drained, and he simply sat down. When I looked up again, there was only a throne in front of me, and a crown bathed in silver light, and nothing else.
"Now I'm going to tell you the most important secret of our elves. This secret has been kept for too long, only the seven people you have seen today are in charge, and our fate is almost approaching, and we need a new inheritor, and you are undoubtedly the most suitable one. Whatever you hear, you don't have to make any judgments, because we've done enough arguments over the long years that we believe it's true, and you just have to believe me. Now, you just have to listen. ”
In a vast and illusory space, before the throne that once reigned as the supreme ruler of the entire continent, an old man unabashedly told his inheritors the oldest and most mysterious history of the elves. And Lil, as the inheritor, has completely given up thinking, and he tries his best to control his emotions, imagining the picture of that heyday.
