Heng's home is located in the north of the city, not far from the Ancient Tree of Life. There is only one house in the whole area, and the rest of the area is covered with various plants. This is where she lives, and it is also where she realizes the true meaning of life as the next priest of life. The house was not large, just a simple two-story building, with white stone walls, and the wide leaves of the creeper rustled in the forest breeze, like the whisper of the forest.

Like most young elves, Heng lives alone. In the elven race, there is no parent-child relationship like in other races. All pure-blooded elves "grow" from the ancient tree of life, and it can be said that the mother tree is their common mother.

However, there is still a relationship between the elders and the younger generations among the elves, but this is only a kind of inheritance, passing on their skills to younger individuals. It's like Heng, who is the next priest of life, her elder is none other than Chen, the current priest of life. Of course, Heng had more than one elder, and according to her, another of her elders was the teacher who instructed her in the bard craft.

Elves still have the concept of companions, but pure-blood elves have no offspring. Only when an elf falls in love with a foreigner from the bottom of his heart will a new life be born. That's how the half-elves came about.

Elven food is usually light, but Heng naturally doesn't forget to prepare some meat in order to entertain friends. After living with Liu Li for a while, Hengke clearly remembers his friend's preference for meat. As for the little squirrel next to him, looking at the plate full of nuts and his eyes lit up made Heng feel amused, and even his hostility towards himself was alleviated a lot under the nut offensive.

"Alright, Heng. Liu Li sighed helplessly, "You don't tease the squirrel anymore." ”

"Ah, okay. Heng smiled lightly, taking advantage of the squirrel's attention to the nuts, and gently flicked her furry ears, causing the little squirrel to dance its teeth and claws again, "Well, I'm sorry, I still can't help it." ”

"Okay, okay. Looking at the girl who was staring at her and glaring at her, Heng smiled and raised her hands and made a surrender gesture, "Sister Squirrel, don't worry, the relationship between me and Liu Li is not what you think." ”

Hearing Heng say this sentence in person, the squirrel's mood improved a lot, but he still looked at the elf in front of him with puzzled eyes. On the one hand, Liu Li was sent to the ancient tree, and she didn't know how she recovered, and on the other hand, she saw that Heng was so outstanding, both in appearance and identity, she was better than herself, so she was naturally worried that she would snatch Liu Li away.

The beauty of the elves is undoubted, and Heng's appearance is the top level even among the elves, coupled with the noble status of the next priest of life, in the eyes of the squirrel, it is normal for Liu Liruo to be tempted by her. In addition, she has also been with Liu Li for a while, and she is also familiar with Landolia, which further hits the squirrel's self-confidence.

Heng could see that this little squirrel had put his whole heart on his friend, but he still couldn't help but tease the other party from time to time. As for the reason, it is not surprising to say.

Heng's closeness to Liu Li stems from Liu Li's vitality comparable to that of the mother tree, although Liu Li does not have the wisdom and heritage accumulated by the mother tree during that time, it is precisely for this reason that Heng and Liu Li get along more naturally. The same sense of closeness, but without that trace of elder-like pressure, makes Heng face Liu Li as if he were facing his brother. So in Heng's feeling, this is like a little girl who is younger than himself and cares about her brother. Although the elf is peaceful and indifferent by nature, it is not emotional, and the squirrel is indeed very cute after disguising himself as a cat lady, so he can't help but play tricks.

Hearing Heng personally explain her relationship with Liu Li, the apprehension in the squirrel's heart finally dissipated invisibly, and he became much closer to this beautiful sister, of course, this closeness was indispensable to the reason for that plate of delicious nuts.

Liu Li didn't pay attention to how the two girls downstairs communicated, he was now on the second floor of the house, in the room where he usually practiced musical instruments. In addition to the scores, there are also some books, in addition to some about the playing techniques of musical instruments, and some are exactly what Liu Li is looking for, those books about magic.

Invokers are those who are skilled in making subtle adjustments to the elements contained in a spell. In any book you can find about a prayer person, you will see the opening sentence: "Prayer comes from faith." ”

It is impossible to know when the original invokers appeared, except that in that era of ignorance, some spellcasters discovered an unfathomable great being and made a deal with it - in exchange for faith in the use of magic.

It was a glorious time, when great beings such as the Ancient Tree of Life had just taught magic to the mortal race, and mortals were using their imagination to study new spells and how to cast them more quickly. As for how to adjust the details of a spell, it did not attract the attention of mortals at the time.

The lack of variation in spells allowed people to constantly develop new spells or become more proficient in spells they had already learned, which was also the precursor to the two branches of spell operators and spell wielders. However, there are always people who are either not good at learning new spells, or have no way to learn new spells, and have little talent for fast spellcasting, which makes them the bottom part of the caster.

Gifted spellcasters despise these people, believing that they are unworthy of being called mages and unworthy of mastering the power of the elements, and refuse to communicate with them again. This kind of behavior makes the already very embarrassing situation of a group of people even worse, without communication, there is no way to grasp new knowledge, and without new knowledge, they will be further and further away from others in terms of spell casting ability.

But the lucky ones always pop up from time to time, and no one knows whether it is a legend or a fact. A weak mage, because his talent was so poor, he only learned one spell and was given up by his teacher. But he was obsessed with the magical world of spells and couldn't extricate himself. Using the only spell he had mastered, he was lucky enough to communicate with a great being.

He regarded them as gods. God told him, "The elements are the root of spells." This sentence was taken as truth by him.

He began to worship the gods, and this worship gradually turned into faith. The gods became the pillars of his continued path as a spellcaster.

The young spellcaster was overjoyed to discover that as his belief in the gods deepened, the elements became more and more at his fingertips, and the only spell he mastered could also exert different effects under the adjustment of the elements contained in it, and this discovery made him ecstatic and his belief in the gods strengthened...... and blindness.

As spellcasters, those who have no talent, even if they are ostracized by their peers, are not willing to be left out among mortals. They had gathered in the north, struggling to find a way out like self-exile, and the lucky young mage was naturally one of them. Until one day, the people who traveled with him finally discovered the difference of their young companion.

There are more and more people who believe in gods. As their faith grows stronger, these self-exiled mages gradually find themselves more sensitive to the elements, as if there really is a god watching over them in the dark, helping them better control the elements in their spells when casting spells. However, the only one who could communicate directly with the gods was the lucky young mage.

The gods are unsearchable, and there is no one other than the lucky young man who can clearly recognize the existence of the gods. But it doesn't matter, as long as you believe in God, you can improve your control of the elements, and the stronger your faith, the more convenient your control of the elements will be. There are more and more people who believe in God, and these people with common beliefs gather together to naturally form an organization, which is the prototype of religion...... It is also the predecessor of the Northern Odin Order on the current continent.

The self-exiled mages have found a way to gain power, and naturally no longer suppress their resentment towards their peers who once looked down on them.

War broke out, the first time in history that a soul-invoker existed, and that war was called the War of Truth by those who recorded it. It was also the largest number of spellcasters on the entire continent.

How long the war lasted no one knows, and the record of history inexplicably appears here for a period of time. And the moment of the end of the war, according to legend, was the death of that lucky young man. In the history of the continent, there have been countless wars that began or ended because of the death of one person, especially in the period before the establishment of the four great empires. But the War of Faith is different from other wars.

The lucky young spellcaster died, and there was no second person to gain favor with the gods. Gradually the invokers also found that continuing to believe in the gods no longer seemed to help them in the process of casting spells. This discovery panicked them and ultimately led to the defeat of the war. Thankfully, despite the absence of God, the prayers have gradually found their own path over the years.

The war, which lasted for many years, made their peers who once looked down on them accept their existence. The Invoker is also officially a branch of the caster, just like the Spell Practitioner and the Spell Bearer.

Liu Li looked at these records of the soul invokers and became curious about the unknowable gods. Although he knew that the Northern Odin Nation was founded on faith, he never considered what they believed. After all, Kronos and Odin are too far apart. Now that he learned of the existence of the gods from this record, the first thought that came to Liu Li's mind was whether the blue that had taken him over had anything to do with this so-called god.

Gently raising his head and looking at the sunlight slanting in through the window of his room, he couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart. It wasn't until Heng's voice came from downstairs that he smiled dumbly: "It's really too early to think about these now." ”

I got up and stretched my body, which had become stiff from sitting for a long time, and walked downstairs. "I don't know how Heng and the little squirrel get along......" Thinking of this, Liu Li's steps downstairs couldn't help but speed up a little.
