Chapter 189: The Lungs of the Forest, the Truth of the Oak Tree

Eastern Forest, Elven Country.

After the three elves were attached to the Sylfan Kingdom, the royal court was naturally transferred to the holy land [Secluded Secret Realm] belonging to the wood elf clan, but the elf king's power desire was not heavy, so he only spread his belief in himself to the elf three clans, and the others remained unchanged.

All the elves and Yalings in the multiverse, most of them are derived from the original elven gods, and only a small number of them are like the elven three tribes on the Draenor continent, ignorant to develop their own civilization, so they are said to be distant relatives with the same name on the old continent, in fact, the two have nothing to do with each other, and even in appearance, the elf tribes of the Delanor continent are also more handsome and have better attributes.

After all, one is a natural creation carefully conceived by the will of the main plane and the continent, and the other is a branch of an extremely distant unknown force that has spread and multiplied to this day.

And the nominal co-master of all the elves and Yaling has rarely appeared many years ago, and among the countless main planes of the multiverse, the primordial elf who intervenes in the [elf] priesthood like King Randil will never be the first, nor will he be the last.

At this time, it was close to evening, and the afterglow of the sky was sprinkled on a high open-air platform, no matter the tables, chairs, tableware, and utensils, all of them had the style of the elves, and the dishes on the table were fresh and sweet melons and fruits, accompanied by elaborate meat (Draenor elves eat meat), as well as fragrant, aftertaste elf wine, such a meal, placed on Draenor Road is already a very high standard, even the priests of the Church of the Gods, can not eat such an exquisite meal.

Three musicians from the Green Elf clan played the special instruments of the elf clan, the two women and one man used different instruments, but together they made up a very beautiful and tranquil music, accompanied by the beautiful scenery of the sky, fine dishes, undoubtedly a very high enjoyment.

The meal was being enjoyed by the four elven gods and the only non-elven being, Shepard's fourth doppelganger.

"Hmm...... Sweet, smooth and with an endless aftertaste, although it is different from the liquor, this sweet taste has the fruity aroma of autumn harvest, and when you drink it, it is like swallowing the whole autumn. ”

In the crystal polished wine glass, the fragrant white liquid was drunk by Shepard, and after savoring it, it made an exaggerated description like an aria, which made the four elven gods who sat with him smile heartily.

"Shepard, your tone is so exaggerated, and your words are so beautiful, you really should be a bard." Ariana is the only female among the four elven gods, and her beautiful singing voice is considered the best among the elves, especially after being canonized, she holds the priesthood of [chanting], and even ordinary speech has a wonderful charm.

Shepard smiled slightly, he and the four elves have known each other for a long time, and they are the closest allies, and the magical identity does not prevent them from occasionally joking, he just held the wine glass, and waited for the beautiful and elegant elf maid on the side to come up and pour another half a glass, and then said with a smile: "Beautiful goddess, no matter how exaggerated the tone is, it can't express the fragrance of this fruit, just like no matter how beautiful words are, it is difficult to describe your beauty." ”

Now that his kingdom of God has been established and his foundation is stable, unless there is an earthquake and tsunami that destroys the continent of Delanor and erases the traces of his faith, there will be almost no normal possibility of falling, so his mood is much lighter.

Ariana's beauty is indeed striking, she has the delicacy, ethereal, and delicacy of an elf, like the most perfect being, and the majesty and mystery of a god, but she is close to Granttal, and Shepard is only joking, and she is only complimenting from the bottom of his heart.

The four gods laughed out loud, but no one was offended, the elves were naturally fond of praising good food, and their delicate hearts could detect the true thoughts of the praisers, and if there were dirty thoughts or evil thoughts, it would easily provoke their vigilance.

"Alright, Shepard, friend of my clan, I can sense that you have something to tell us." Randyr smiled and smiled, dressed in a delicate soft robe and a simple headband adorned with turquoise, emeralds, and sapphires.

Shepard smiled without saying a word, and when he raised his head and drank the fruit in the cup, when he looked down again, there was already a crumpled and shriveled fruit in his empty hand, which was slightly larger than a fist, and it looked as if it had been dried for a long time and had lost all its vitality.

The four elven gods all looked at this shriveled seed, this is naturally the natural seed that Shepard obtained, and it is from the native variety of the Drano continent, the expressions of the four gods gradually became solemn, obviously that kind of seed looked lifeless, but there was an inexplicable connection that made them sense.

"I can feel it...... There is a connection, a blood connection, calling...... It's like a missing piece of ...... in life" Randyer's breathing became rapid, and he subconsciously put his hand on his chest: "...... And here's what is missing...... This kind of sub. ”

As the [God of Trees] of the elven clan, Lemelke's feeling for this natural seed is not much different from that of Randil, and he said slowly: "I feel this way too...... Just plant it, feed it, and when it grows, the elves will ...... to be complete. ”

The other two gods did not speak, but looked at the natural seed with blazing eyes, and then looked eagerly at Shepard, so frightened that he hurriedly said, "Don't look at me, this thing was meant to be a gift for you." ”

He handed over the Seed of Nature, and Randil and Lemelk almost eagerly took it, and as soon as he received it, Randil apologized: "Shepard, the call of the blood is pulling us, we will plant this seed at once, and please stay here for a while, so that we can express our sincere gratitude to you!" ”

Shepard said indifferently: "Actually, I still have something to give you, but looking at your anxious expressions, go yourself, I will wait for you here." ”

Randul and the others nodded, and didn't even bother to say more, so they hurriedly left the balcony together, leaving Shepard alone, pulling over a chair and sitting paralyzed without grace, leisurely watching the sunset on the horizon, the clouds like flames, and then listening to the elven musicians playing, eating food, and the fun is difficult to describe.

……

After a long time, Shepard, who was already savoring the sixth cup of elven fruit brew, suddenly stopped holding the cup, the elven musicians also suddenly stopped playing, the elven guards in armor stopped patrolling, and the other elves who were playing and singing also stopped what they were doing.

All the elves began to look in the same direction, and Shepard turned his head to look there, which was the place where the natural breath was the strongest in this wide forest, and just now, the natural breath had changed from the original rich and full of life to lively and thriving.

The elves, unaware of what was happening, began to whisper, and more than one elf let out a low exclamation.

"What happened? I feel like there's something calling to me......"

"I also feel like I have a sense of mission that makes me ...... over"

“…… Strange feeling, such a feeling of intimacy. ”

It didn't take long for the clashing sound of the armor leaves to make a crisp sound, and several teams of elven warriors rushed out of the forest, conveying the same order to all the elves of the Sylvan Kingdom: "The order of the four highnesses, asking all the elves to go to the inner lake!" ”

They then split into two groups and headed north and south, as they had to inform the gray elves in the north and the green elves in the south who were gradually starting to move together from the dense forests of the river valley.

There are also a few gray elves and green elves in the secluded secret realm, but they are still mainly wood elves, and after receiving the order conveyed by the elven warriors, the elves are nervous and curious and excited, and gather from all over the place, and walk towards the secluded inner lake in the secluded secret realm.

Shepard's face was as usual, but he quietly followed the elves to the same place, and as the footsteps gradually stretched in, it was no longer a dense elven building that perfectly combined lighting and tranquility, but a primitive style of towering trees, mixed with light sources that were shining like stars in the night sky.

Walking this way, it is the real secluded and secret realm, where the elves usually live, the area built by the elves for life, Shepard rarely comes here, and even the elves rarely come, because although they like to be quiet and secluded, they do not like too dark and lonely places.

The breath of nature and the power of life have become more and more intense here, those stars that release light sources are actually a special magic plant in the dense forest, at this moment, under the action of natural power, the luminous plant grows and reproduces rapidly, and the total amount has expanded several times in a short period of time, like fireflies like light points in the forest are connected together, like the projection of the galaxy falling in the world.

"It's so beautiful......"

Even the elves rarely saw such a scene, both men and women let out exclamations, and before they knew it, they had gone to the depths, the cool water vapor hit their faces, and the elves looked for the figures of the four gods together by the inner lake, and it didn't take long for them to exclaim.

Shepard also narrowed his eyes slightly, only to see that the lake in the dense forest of hundreds of acres not far away was calm as usual, but on the side of the lake, four elven gods were surrounding a wonderful plant, the elves were slender and taller than humans, this plant was just newborn, it was already the height of four elves, the branches and leaves were dense, rustling.

Standing there, the trunk was thick and deep into the earth, and the upper part was shaped like an umbrella cover, and it was already thick enough for two people to hug each other, and the area covered by dense foliage above was twenty times larger than the main trunk.

The source of natural breath and vitality is there, the elves have approached the strange plant shaped like oak, there are not many trees by the inner lake, mainly fresh green grass and colorful flowers, at this moment there are more oaks that seem to drive the breath of the whole dense forest, the elves are only a few thousand people in total, and it is more than enough to come here.

The closer he got, the more he could feel the special of the oak, the elves felt very different, some sentimental or weak-willed elves, and even cried out, but the people next to him didn't pay attention at all, Shepard naturally wouldn't be like this, he just looked at the oak with interest, and the four gods who were surrounded by the oak and the faint connection between the oak.

As we got closer, we realized that the four gods each occupied a position, muttering as if reciting a mysterious prayer, as if calling to the spirit of nature in the forest, the opportunity of life between heaven and earth, guiding the oak to draw nourishment from heaven and earth and grow rapidly.

When Shepard approached the oak with the elves, and the height of the giant tree had grown by another section, and without the four gods having to say anything, all the elves knelt down and prayed in a low voice to the oak, not with piety and awe, but with affection and remembrance, for the call that had disappeared in the blood, for the satisfaction of replenishing life to the fullest.

The standing Shepard stood out, but the elves had no opinion on this, and the four gods naturally did the same, Randuil and Lemelk waved at Shepard to signal him to approach, so he passed between the elves, walked to the side of the oak, and looked up, the power of nature in the upper end of the dense canopy of oak was condensed like a substance, even if he was just a doppelganger, he felt that the body was condensed a little more when he breathed in, this is not something that divine power can do, only the purest and most essential life force can have such a strange effect.

Randil, who has always been calm and majestic, was full of smiles at the moment, but he looked at Shepard with some apologies: "I'm sorry, Shepard, this [Forest Oak] is still growing, the four of us have to stay here to take care of it, and anything else must be put down first." ”

Shepard said indifferently, "It's natural, I can see how important it is to you and this forest, and even my kingdom will benefit from it, so you don't have to mind, it just so happens that I'm leaving here." ”

As soon as he flipped his hand, the inheritance scroll left by the Grand Arcanist of the Magic Empire era appeared in his hand, and he handed it to Randir and the others, and said with a smile: "I don't have any gifts to give for such a day worth celebrating and commemorating, so I will give this thing to you, and when you are free, I will study it more." ”

Randur took the scroll, and the gods were so extraordinary that he quickly understood what this thing was, and then handed it to the other three gods, and after a while, all four gods understood what it was for.

Among the four elven gods, Randil is the strongest, but Le Melk is most interested in natural magic and arcane magic, he opened his mouth, and swallowed back the words of thanks, he knows very well how precious [Piero's Book of Wisdom] is, and more importantly, they and the elves are very much in need of this thing, with Shepard's friendship with the four elven gods, there is no need for many polite words.
