Thick darkness descended on the "Frozen Fortress" and the "Sea of Strong Acid", like a curtain on the stage against the new demon prince "Lord of Darkness", and the surrounding void still resounded with a roar of pain, anger, hatred, and bloodthirstiness, as if it was a chaotic killing melody composed by the "Dark Word", cheering and worshipping for Gornheim's ascension to the throne.

On the other side of the abyss, in the middle of the wasteland where countless strange undead creatures are lodging, there is a palace made of huge bones, above the palace, an illusory monster in a black cloak looks at the direction of the "Sea of Strong Acid" and floats quietly, its shriveled and thin face like a layer of skin, and its two pale and empty eyes faintly burn with the flames of nothingness

The staggering of the "Scarlet Plains" and the "Abyss Stomach Bag" gradually separated, and the "Dark Lord" Gornheim had no other actions, for it, it was pointless to fight with Lucian, Natasha and Malfurion at this time, it had just devoured the "core" of the previous Demon Prince, and was able to successfully advance to the peak of the Legend by getting the favor and "feedback" of the "Abyss", and it was the time when it needed to be stable, and rashly starting the battle would only give other demon kings who were eyeing the demon king in their hearts a chance.

Seeing that it has been promoted, Lucien does not have the idea of entering the "Frozen Fortress", not to mention that the "Dark Lord" is close to the gods in his "home field", just the hidden things behind this matter make him dare not be careless, and the replacement of the "Demon Prince" is not dangerous for the council for the time being, unless the Elven Empress really falls completely into the abyss - this is impossible to think with your toes, there is no problem with temporary cooperation and utilization, if you have a long-term alliance. Everyone will worry about betraying the demon of chaos who kills him.

The cold, dark ocean and frozen fortresses disappeared into the sky, and the "Scarlet Plains" returned to normal, except for the shattered, burning corpses of demons.

Malfurion looked at the "Bloody King" in front of him who could not be effectively defended due to the impact of the "Sword of Truth" attack, looked at the wreckage left behind by it, did not say a word, and fell into a deep silence, the "Arrow of Nature" suddenly shot from the "Altar of Nature" made him understand many things, and his heart was very complicated.

"It turned out that the 'Dark Lord' was behind the scenes, and I don't know how it managed to gain the trust of the Demon Prince. Natasha put away the cracked Shield of Truth and looked at the blue sky as the dust had been cleared by the Eternal Blazing Sun. The pure and brilliant sun shines down. It's extra pleasant and lazy.

Lucien shook his head and said amusedly: "I can't simulate the thoughts of the Chaos Demon, maybe Gohenheim has found the weakness in the Demon Prince's heart, but what is hidden behind this matter is worthy of our vigilance." Viken, it seems, is indeed going to be a god-like method, which has been secretly announced. Spread in the hands of a legendary one He has carefully chosen. As a result, it is expected that the situation will become extremely complicated in the event of fierce fighting in the future. I don't know how many conspiracies and killings are in full swing. ”

Maybe there are legendary magicians within the council to receive it!

The conversation between the two did not go through the telepathic connection, but spoke generously, and by the way, he told Malfurion about this information.

"Yes, the arrangement of the natural altar, the pollution of the elven tree, and the depraved demonization of the elves are quite similar to the state transformation magic array in the 'Gate World', but, hehe, maybe it's not Pope Viken? Natasha said with a smile, she knew everything about the world of the door from Lucian.

Malfurion was silent for a long time before he suddenly spoke: "You mean that Her Majesty the Empress cooperated with the Dark Lord to plot the Demon Prince and transform the state with the help of its arrangement?"

"That's how it should be. Lucien bowed slightly, and didn't say anything more, seeing that most of the remains of the Blood King and the Demon Prince had lost their vitality and vitality under the "Eternal Blazing Sun", so he only picked up a few pieces that could be used as experimental materials to put away.

On the way back to the Abyssal Rift, Natasha telepathically said, "The Elven Empress must be planning a god-like path, will it pose a danger to the Council and the Kingdom?"

If there's danger, nip it in the bud before it's too late!

"The Elven Empress should have successfully transformed the state and mastered the mysteries, and if Viken's method wants to become a god-like, she also needs to accumulate the power of faith, with the number of elves, she can only expand outward, however, with the help of 'natural feedback' and 'natural divine magic', she is closer to her own essence and easier to succeed, plus the council is strong, and the sea clan is relatively weak, it is not difficult for her to choose the direction of expansion. Lucien analyzed.

Natasha nodded lightly: "The Sea Clan is a legendary peak, there are four councils, as long as the elf queen is not blinded by negative emotions, she will definitely make the right choice, and the ocean is also a part of nature, a very large part, but, when the elf queen really becomes a god-like, will she still maintain a good cooperative relationship with us?"

"Not to mention the success rate and dangers of this path, just when she accumulates enough faith power to advance, the development of the arcane will definitely be able to take on another true god-like path without hidden dangers!" Lucien's tone was flat but full of confidence.

Natasha laughed twice, didn't ask deeply, and then had a straight expression: "In such an era of strife and rapid development, I can't be satisfied with being an epic knight, I have to work harder!"

Then she symbolically shook her fist: "I must catch up with you and get our active-passive relationship back on track!"

Lucien smiled at her, "provocative" self-evident.

............

As soon as they returned to the "natural abode" and entered the misty forest, Lucian, Natasha, and Malfurion heard the soft and clear voice of the Elven Empress: "Two distinguished guests, thank you for your contribution to the Elven Clan, thank you for finding the real murderer Lanhill, clearing the suspicion of Ferragond, and please meet you at the Elven Court." ”

Lucien and Natasha glanced at each other, both sensing the Elven Empress's kindness, and at the same time paying close attention to whether the Mystery Lock was opened, and returning to the "Atomic Universe" with "Reunion" if something went wrong.

Malfurion flew in silence as he entered the palace of treehouses in the Elven Tree, delicate but not luxurious, where magicians such as Atlante, Julisian, Felipe, and Heidi were already seated.

Ferragander excused himself to be injured and did not attend the banquet, but after the hatred in his heart was manifested and eliminated, his hostility towards humans became much weaker, and the natural haters were afraid that they would become nature protectors.

The "Elven Empress" Aglaia was still wearing a long dress woven with green leaves, and she got up with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Please allow me to express my gratitude on behalf of the elves." ”

Seeing that her slender figure was slightly illusory, Lucian and Natasha nodded secretly, she had indeed completed the state transformation, but because she couldn't control this state, she showed an abnormality on the outside, but she generously revealed this abnormality It also showed her attitude of frank cooperation.

"Evans, Forman, here are the fruits of the two elven trees, please accept them, no matter how valuable the gift is, it cannot be compared with the gratitude in our hearts. The Elven Empress said to Lucien and Atlante, and took out an emerald green box made of two branches without discrimination, which exuded a faint fragrance, just by smelling it, Lucien had his hair open and felt refreshed.

Elven Prince Exirion, Great Elder Malfurion's mouth opened, and he seemed to subconsciously want to stop it, because the elven tree will bear fruit for a long time, and there are only a few at a time, and there are many uses, so in the royal court's treasury, there are only three left, and this time it took out two-thirds!

However, they all resisted the urge to stop it, no matter what the truth behind the matter was, it was indeed the magicians of the council who "saved" the fate of the elves.

Lucien did not pretend to be polite, politely took the box, and sincerely thanked him, with the Elven Tree Fruit, plus the "Fountain of Youth", he could arrange a "Natural Gift" ceremony that he and Natasha could use at the same time!

Seeing that the two legendary magicians had accepted the "gifts", and that the other magicians had also received different thank-you gifts from Elastine, the Elven Empress smiled again: "Evans, since the 'Voice of Mysteries' can be heard in the Stroop Forest, we have only learned the true state of the current arcane development, and many elves are very interested in it. ”

This kind of new and non-contradictory to the daily life of the elves is still very popular with them.

"It's an honor. Lucien replied with a smile, probably guessing what the Elven Empress was trying to say.

Aglaia bowed her head slightly: "We elves have never been a conservative and stubborn race, and have been learning the virtues of other civilizations, so I will not stop them from being interested in arcane and magic, on the contrary, I hope that they can go to Alinge to learn, so that we can truly understand the arcane and clear up misunderstandings." ”

"Your Majesty, we can exchange and learn, you select some elves to come to Alinge to learn arcane arts or magic, we choose some humans to go to the Stroop Forest to learn natural magic, or let magicians who are very interested in the natural abilities of elves live in the forest for a long time. Lucien thought about it and proposed funny, this is an exchange student?

Aglaia thought for a moment, and said with a smile like a spring breeze: "Very good advice, Ellerstin, you are going to Alinge to study on behalf of the royal court. ”

"Me?" Alestine was a little stunned,

Aglaia put away her smile and said solemnly, "Although you are a druid, learning arcane arts is not a bad thing, it can help you understand the secrets of nature better." ”

In the Psychic Connection, Natasha smiled, "It seems that the Elven Empress wants to fully cooperate with the Council. ”

Protons, very common...... Lucien was very satisfied with this, then got up and asked, "Your Majesty, the elves have a long history and have a lot of secrets, I want to ask, do you know where you can get the legendary-level space-time materials?"

This was the second purpose of his trip. (To be continued......)
