Elder Sephaon didn't know how these black-robed Inquisitors had infiltrated the elven race.

The Darkwood Elves themselves are assassins with the protection of the 'Hidden' inscription, and any human stealth ability is extremely poor in front of the Darkwood Elves.

But the Inquisitors relied on another special disguise to deceive all the Darkwood Elves, and even one of those 'rebellious' Darkwood Elves was a proud disciple of Elder Sephaon.

Although Elder Sefarn's heart was filled with anger and pain, his duty to protect the World Tree allowed him to summon a large number of Treants to fight against the black-robed Inquisitors.

Eventually, Elder Sephaon himself took part in the battle in the form of a massive bear, tearing apart the invaders who dared to invade the land with his claws and teeth.

But... The power of the Inquisition far exceeded Elder Sephaun's expectations.

For this attack, they don't know how long they had been planning, and close to hundreds of black-robed inquisitors appeared around the forest.

The magic they unleashed was extremely destructive, killing the Darkwood Elf Assassin with ease, who was extremely hidden in the darkness...... The tentacles made of magic on the ground also stopped the orcs from moving.

This sudden attack gave the Blackwood Elves no time to prepare, and it was even more unexpected for the clansmen inside to suddenly become enemies.

Coupled with the fact that the entire region was shrouded in gray mist, Elder Sephaon couldn't even confirm the location of his fellow citizens in the thick gray mist!

Suddenly... The ground suddenly began to tremble, and Elder Sephaon looked up, where he was standing close to the World Tree.

The brass dragon's frantic roar echoed throughout the battlefield, and several tentacles thicker than the branches of trees rose from the ground and wrapped firmly around the branches of the World Tree.

No... No!

Elder Sephaon could feel the breath of life in the World Tree, and together with several Elven Elven Elders around him, he asked the Treants to destroy the tentacles, but the Treants were also entangled in the tentacles and could not move.

The whole forest was weeping, and life was gradually being swallowed up by the gray mist that filled the surrounding area.

Eventually, under Elder Sefaun's desperate gaze, the emerald green leaves of the World Tree gradually turned yellow... Eventually, it gradually withered and scattered down.

At this moment, Elder Sefarn's eyes widened, and he changed into his original human form, reaching out and grasping the withered yellow leaves of the World Tree.

When the leaf fell into the palm of Elder Sephaon's hand, it dissipated into dust...

The World Tree lost its vitality at this moment, and despair spread in Elder Sephaon's heart.

The life of the Darkwood Elf race comes from the World Tree, and his power also comes from the gift of the Sacred Tree, and the withering of the World Tree represents the extinction of this race.

The meaning of the Blackwood Elves living in this world is to protect the World Tree, and the withering of the World Tree means that the family has lost the meaning of living.

But Elder Sephaon could still feel the power in his body, and he raised his head.

Indeed, the leaves that grew on the World Tree had turned from yellow to gray, and finally to dust.

Although the body of the World Tree is dead, its roots are not dead.

Elder Sephaon felt a slight tremor in the ground, and he prepared himself for battle, only to break through the gray mist and run in front of him, it was his companion Eter.

Brown bear Etter rubbed his nose against Elder Sefarn's palm, and Elder Sephaon noticed that it was covered in numerous scars.

"Elder Sefarne!"

Caroli, who was sitting on top of Etter, shouted his name, and Elder Sephaon noticed the amazing vitality of the human maiden, though only for a fleeting moment.

But... This is the vitality of the World Tree!

The World Tree's... Seed......

Elder Sephaon remembered an old legend he had read in the Elven Psalms that the World Tree would not truly perish, but would choose to lodge with an elf when it was nearing the end of its life and wait for the next sprout.

Elder Sephaon had always doubted the authenticity of this legend, as the World Tree had grown into a towering ancient tree for tens of thousands of years since he was born, far older than the history of the Darkwood Elves.

But the facts were already in front of his eyes, the World Tree of the Darkwood Elves had not died, it... It was re-lodged in the human maiden's body in the form of a seed.

Elder Sephaon wondered why the World Tree would choose a human.

But now an undoubted fact has been laid out in front of him, and his duty now is to protect the safety of this human daughter!

As long as this Daughter of Humanity is alive, then there is still a possibility that the World Tree will grow into a towering ancient tree again!

Whether it takes thousands or tens of thousands of years to grow, Elder Sephaon is willing to wait...... Because there is still a glimmer of hope for the Darkwood Elves!

"Etter! Take Carolee out of here! ”

Elder Sephaon immediately made a decision, and without the support of the World Tree, the entire Blackwood Forest was withering, and the Tree People gradually lost their ability to fight.

Although Elder Sephaon feared for the lives of his fellow citizens, in the face of the last hope of the Clan, Elder Sephaon chose to prioritize protecting Caroli from this dangerous land.

Ette let out a low roar and immediately ran towards the back of the World Tree, and Elder Sephaon followed closely behind Etter, ensuring Caroli's safety.

Caroli, who sat behind Etter, had the 'camera' that Josieu had given her.

"For the Sacred Tree!"

Caroli could faintly hear the same slogan being shouted by the Darkwood Elves around her.

They were fighting to protect their homeland, but the cruel Inquisitors were merciless in stabbing their blades into their bodies, but even then they did not give up their resistance......

Sitting on the back of a brown bear, Caroli recorded all of this as best she could, the desperate resistance of the Darkwood Elves warriors to protect their homeland, and the cruel nature of the Inquisitors.

Caroli doesn't know how long the people of this world have been blinded by the church, but... It was at this moment that she saw the true nature of the Inquisition of the Church.

These guys are not 'warriors fighting for justice and banishing the darkness of this world' at all, but a group of ruthless executioners.

Sitting on the back of a bear, Caroli may not be able to take some clear pictures as she used to, but any scene that takes place on this brutal battlefield is enough to be ironclad evidence that the Inquisition is in fact a group of murderers.
