Chapter 116: Requirements and Promises
Looking at Al's unequivocal and confident face, a wave of irritation rose in Sophie's heart. However, this emotion was quickly suppressed by her, as a legendary powerhouse of the elf clan, even if she has only been promoted for a short time, she still knows some core secrets in the clan.
In recent years, the tree of life that has helped the elves through countless dangers has finally exhausted almost all of its vitality in the long years and is about to wither.
After all, even the "World Tree" that gave birth to a world will decay and collapse, so the withering of the Tree of Life is a matter of course.
The elves, who have long been warned by the "Tree of Life", have been trying to cultivate a new "Tree of Life" for thousands of years.
What makes people desperate is that no matter how much resources the elves have paid, how much effort they have put in, and even a lot of foundation, they have not succeeded in giving birth to a new "tree of life".
This is also the reason why the elves have taken the initiative to mobilize troops in the border fortress for the first time since ancient times to confront the southern human countries.
After almost losing hope of cultivating a new "Tree of Life", looking at the "Tree of Life" that began to slowly wither within the clan, the elves were filled with a new perspective.
Taking advantage of the fact that the Tree of Life has not completely withered, and some secret treasures and other items in the clan can still be used by relying on the Tree of Life, then take the initiative to gather troops to engage in a life-and-death war with the southern human countries.
success, it will gain a new living space for the elves.
No, even after learning the news of the withering of the "Tree of Life", the southern human countries that have suffered heavy losses do not have extra troops to infest the "Endless Forest", the habitat of the elves, so as to win a precious respite for the elves.
Sophie, who is well aware of this secret, understands the importance of the "Tree of Life" seed in El's hand to the elves.
It is a "life-saving straw" that can be obtained at any cost and with the strength of the whole clan, which represents the last hope of the elf clan.
If there is no protection of the "Tree of Life", the external defense is better to say, the most deadly thing is that without the nourishment of the water of life, the newborns of the next generation of the elves will usher in a great decline, and it will not be long before the elves will disappear in the history of the continent because of the weakening of their overall strength.
Thinking of this, Sophie's heart felt helpless, and she had to pinch her nose and admit that Al was right.
This "seed of the tree of life" is bound to be obtained.
"I can't make the decision on this matter, I must contact the clan", staring at the "Seed of the Tree of Life" emitting a faint green light in Al's hand, Sophie resisted the willingness to do it in her heart and spoke.
"Yes, but I'll only give you three days to prepare, and after three days, I'll be leaving."
Looking at Sophie's cold face, Ayr paused and continued, "I don't think your clan will be reluctant to use a useless artifact to risk the destruction of the seed of this tree of life"?
Listening to Al's threatening words, Sophie completely dispelled some of the thoughts in her heart, three days was too short to mobilize manpower. Then, with a nod, he disappeared into the sky as a streamer.
And Al did not hesitate, and walked in the direction of the fortress behind him.
Time was running out for him, and its transcendent perception was urging him to leave this place quickly...... You may never be able to leave.
Only when he leaves once and for all will this Plantagenet territory be truly tranquil. Thinking of this, Al's mood darkened slightly.
......
In the light of dawn, Elmai hurried to the dead fortress.
A glimmer of golden sunlight pierced through the darkness and tore through the night, shining on the crumbling walls of the Southern Fortress.
Standing upright in the sky like a mountain, the Southern Fortress erected at the junction of the plains and the wilderness has disappeared without a trace, only dark red blood, broken armor, and corpses everywhere, silently telling the story of what happened here.
Walking into this battlefield with indescribable sadness, looking at the corpses of the fortress soldiers who were still desperately resisting before they died, even if they had killed all the demonic beasts in this area, they still couldn't offset his pain.
These are soldiers who are loyal to his family and loyal to him!
Some looked at the center of the battlefield in silence, the corpse of the fortress commander, Rand, who had not fallen until death, was holding a broken knight's spear, firmly nailing a demonic beast to the ground.
And behind his pitch-black knight's heavy armor, a dagger pierced Rand's heavy knight's heavy armor from behind, piercing his heart.
"Bang", a broken military flag was taken out by Al, with a monstrous blood light, shattering the stone bricks paved on the ground, and firmly planted on this battlefield.
Above the bright red flag, a dark golden gorse fluttered in the wind.
"Ding, congratulations on getting a gold-level knight spirit"
"Ding, congratulations, you have obtained 2,000 ordinary military souls"
Silently listening to the system's prompts, he watched the soldiers who died on the battlefield neatly sink into the battle flag.
Al slowly opened his lips and said word by word to this battlefield:
One day, I will lead you to this place again,
Sacrifice your souls with the blood of your enemies and appease my wrath.
