Chapter 60: In Search of the Queen
It turned out that Xifina was just an ordinary officer on duty in the Hall of Elders, and no one knew who she was, and no one cared who she was. But just today, everyone learned that she was Her Majesty's person, and in these two hours, she suddenly became hot.
But the Queen's trust is also her pressure. The whole clean-up operation is complicated, and the queen herself has to fight as the most important combat force. She became a conduit for the queen and other Praetorian officers.
Since no one would have thought of someone beating her, she was left alone in her room, with no guards around. So the stealthy trio quickly touched her side.
Shefina had just sent a herald away, and in the scroll on the table, she had written down a new name. Suddenly I felt a pain in the back of my head, and I lost consciousness.
Evelyn carried her on her shoulder, and Dinen cast a stealth spell on her before quickly dragging her out of the room.
When Sylfina woke up again, she was in an ordinary treehouse. Xiao Chen and the three of them had already shown their form, waiting for her to come to her senses.
"Your Excellency Dining. I didn't expect you to kidnap me. Sylfina saw that the three people in the room were not nervous or shouting, but spoke in a steady voice, "This human should be a member of the expedition team chosen by His Majesty, Your Excellency Xiao Chen, right? β
Xifina's calmness impressed Xiao Chen, and he said with a smile: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Miss Xifina, we just want to talk to you, and we don't mean to kidnap you." You must know that with our current status, it is not so convenient to move, and we don't want to hurt more elves, so we used this method to invite you out. β
"Talk, do you want the Queen's forgiveness?" said Sylfina, looking like the Queen's representative.
"We haven't done anything wrong, we don't need forgiveness, we just want to meet the Queen through you. Xiao Chen said.
"That's impossible, the Queen has so much to do today that there won't be time to waste on you. My advice to you is to follow me back to the Hall of Elders, and when Her Majesty is done with her business, I will meet you naturally. Xifina persuaded her, she had an ability to say everything and appear to be sincere, as if she was thinking about Xiao Chen and them.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "You are wrong, the problem now is not on us, but there is something that endangers the arrival of Queen Heni." No matter what the Queen was prepared to do to us, we never regarded her as an enemy. Now, if she didn't know about it, the World Tree might be under a very serious threat, and death was not impossible. The queen and the World Tree are now living and dying together, right?"
Xifina stared at Xiao Chen, as if she wanted to see the truth of this matter in his eyes. Xiao Chen didn't dodge, and also looked directly into her eyes.
Xiao Chen looked at his wrist and said seriously, "Miss Xifina, we really don't have much time. Are you still worried that we can threaten the Queen's safety?"
"Well, the Queen has promised to see you. Shifina said.
"Then let's go. Xiao Chen made a gesture of please.
"No, I don't. Just listen to a majestic female voice ringing in their ears. Then the light and shadow around the three of them changed chaotically, and by the time they were reunited, they had come to a large hall.
It seemed to be an attic, surrounded on all sides by tall elven-style windows, through which the curved vine panes could see the fire-red sky outside, and the World Tree in the distance, which was already the outskirts of the Elven royal capital.
Is this the means of the super-saints? Breaking through the limitations of space, it is like taking a toy and taking pictures of them.
Queen Dahni, dressed in an intricately patterned green elven robe and a laurel crown, stood in the middle of the hall, blooming like a peony in the light of the fire outside, surrounded by three elves in mage robes who fell to the ground and lost their breath. Xiao Chen could clearly feel that the Dahni in front of him was completely different from the meeting in the garden at that time.
"Here it is...... The Tower of Green Leaves, could it be that the three great magicians of the Tower of Green Leaves are on the ground!" Dinen whispered.
"Xiao Chen, if you have something to say, just say it. Everyone will have a home today, since you came early...... It's better to accept your fate sooner. Queen Dahni looked at Xiao Chen, her expression could not be seen with joy or anger, but there was a faint sadness in her tone.
"My fate does not concern you. We Chinese like to control our own destiny. Xiao Chen touched his nose and said, "However, since the God of Nature is our common enemy. Why can't we deal with him together?"
"You, with a high-level mage, are going to deal with a god?" Daheni sighed and shook her head, "What gave you this confidence?"
"My companions and I have the legacy of the Seven Holy Towers. β
"What's the point of this? So many Saints in the Seven Holy Pagodas have already failed. Dahney said unceremoniously.
"But we're different, and if you're willing to understand what the China Tower is like, you'll know that we have different possibilities. β
"Don't waste any more time. You are not qualified to let me cooperate. Daherne had lost interest in Xiao Chen's words, and instead asked, "Tell me, how did Elaina die?"
Xiao Chen sighed in his heart, so he spent a lot of time and carefully recounted the battle of exploring the taproot of the World Tree, and finally said: "In order to escape the control of the God of Nature, she drank a drop of the God Eclipse Elixir, and finally poured the entire bottle of God Eclipse Elixir on that hand, I think the God of Nature should have been traumatized, right?"
Dahni was a little overjoyed: "Yes, fortunately, this is only a small part of the body of the God of Nature, and it does not carry his true consciousness, so under the circumstances you said, a whole bottle of God-Eclipse Elixir was poured. In this way, maybe Elaina bought us hundreds of years. β
Xiao Chen sighed: "But the price is that Elaina gave up the power of her family, or elven bloodline, I don't know if she was an elf or a human when she died." β
"Looks like you've found out. That's right, the so-called elves are human beings who have been chosen by the gods of nature. Our appearance also comes from his strange aesthetic. So even if I choose to betray his will, I still can't betray his bloodline. Elaine is doing a good job, better than me. This is the end with our gloryβthe glory of man. There was a mixture of sadness and pride in her expression, but in the end it all faded to the surface, and she added: "All this is to escape the fate of being manipulated by him, she has her sacrifice, I have my sacrifice, and are you ready to accept your sacrifice?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows: "Bear notoriety as the destroyer of the World Tree?"
"Many elves still can't accept the fact that the gods of nature have easily abandoned us and used the World Tree as nourishment. Fighting the gods of nature is something that most elves can't even think of. At this time, a less formidable enemy is needed as a crutch to support us forward. There is no race better suited to bring elves together than humans. β
Xiao Chen glanced at his wrist: "Do you know, I originally thought that if there is a common enemy, can we stand with you, after all, in the battle against the God of Nature, a super saint is a very important weight. But now it seems, it's not a good choice. Because I still have one thing to ask of my ally: I want her to have a face. β
