Forest of Whispers, in the room of Elven Elder Lua.

"Brother Asa is now waiting for the leaves of this World Tree to save his life, I will never lie to you......"

Lua bit her lip and thought silently for a long time before she spoke, "Is this what you asked me to come out to discuss with you alone?"

Ai Yimei didn't speak again, but her face was already slowly turning pale. She mustered up her strength before she said, "Do you want Brother Asa to die?"

"The power of the Leaves of the World Tree and the Sunwell was originally used to destroy the Dark Star, that was originally my mission, but he forcibly took away the power that originally belonged to me, that was fate, so this result will be borne by him, this is also his mission. Lua's eyes were full of strange confusion. It's not so much that she's talking, but that she's reciting a code of rules that has nothing to do with her.

"I ...... I thought you would definitely save Big Brother Asa......" Ai Yimei said with her head buried in her head. She could already see that the young elven elder had unusual feelings for Asa, which was why she had come to the Whispering Forest to persuade her.

"I want to save him, but the leaves of the World Tree are not mine, they are the sacred relics of our elven clan, and they are also the fate of the continent, so it is not a question of whether I am willing or not. Lua turned around, no longer looking at Aiyime, and said coldly. "Let's go. ”

"I'm sorry, but I can't let Big Brother Asa die no matter what. A hard thing suddenly hit Lua's waist from behind. Lua turned around and saw a crossbow in Aimeh's hand.

This is a very well-made and very small crossbow. Ai Yimei said in a sad voice: "Don't move, don't scream, what I have in my hand is something I took from the necromancer, and the poison and curse on it will definitely not be able to stand even if it cuts a little skin, I don't want to kill you." ”

Unexpectedly, Lua let out a long sigh, saying nothing, and showing no signs of resistance, and was thus carried by Ai Yimei to the top of the Ancient War Tree with a crossbow against her back.

The two of them were already in a small cabin on a huge ancient war tree, and they didn't encounter any elves along the way. The wide mage's robes were large enough to hide the small crossbow arrows well. The two seemed to be only very close, and no one could have imagined that a helpless young magician would have the guts to kidnap an elven elder in the Whispering Forest of the Forbidden Demons.

The leaves of the World Tree are placed on the altar in the center of the Ancient Tree of War. The Ancient Tree of War has been fully developed under the watering of the Sun Well, showing the appearance of the war fortress used by the Ancient Elven Empire to deal with dragons and Titans, and there are already dozens of huge deadwood warriors around the altar, and dozens of strangely shaped branches on the scattered trunk of the Ancient War Tree, which are enough magical weapons to deal with dragons at that time.

Absolutely no one would have the guts to face these things to snatch the leaves of the World Tree, so the elves didn't seem to be much alert, and some nodded when they saw Elder Lua.

Ai Yimei's heart was beating fast. The sheer Deadwood Warriors around her, and the strange branches of unknown but certainly powerful branches, could turn her into meat sauce in the blink of an eye. She froze and said to Lua in a trembling voice, "Go and give me the leaves of the World Tree." ”

"It's useless to give it to you. Even if the people around me don't pay attention now, as soon as I pick up the World Tree, someone will come and ask me. Elder Lloyd has returned, and even I don't have the right to use the leaves of the World Tree at will. And even if it's given to you, you can't go. ”

"As long as you give it to me. Ai Yimei held a crossbow in one hand and a teleportation scroll in her arms in the other, which she had already prepared. The Forbidden Enchantment of the Sunwell prevents all magic, except for spatial magic.

Lua hesitated silently, but finally led Aimee to the center of the altar.

"Stop. An old elf with a white beard suddenly appeared on the shoulder of a deadwood warrior and said lightly.

Aimei took a step forward and strangled Rua's neck, looking at the old elf with a wary face. The other elves at the top of the ancient tree also saw that something was wrong, and they all screamed and stirred.

But the old elf on the deadwood warrior didn't seem to be in a hurry, and said lightly: "Now this ending is actually the most ideal for our elves, we don't need to get involved in it, and you don't have to be confused for that kid." Think of everything as Marfa's arrangement. ”

"What did you say?" Aimei didn't understand.

"I'm not talking to you, little girl. Do you really think that you can really get to this place with that little gadget in your hand?" Elder Lloyd didn't care about Ai Yime, looking at Lua, who was actually held hostage by Ai Yime, he sighed, shook his head lightly and said, "You want to take the leaves of the World Tree through this little girl's hand? I'm really a little disappointed, I can't even think that you won't be able to pass this level in the end, don't you remember Marfa's teachings?"

Lua's face was a little flustered, and she lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry, I was just careless, this little girl is a disciple of Master Edrid, and her brother used to ...... for helping us."

"And I don't have to talk that nonsense. I know what you're thinking, stop doing stupid things. The old elf shook his head dryly, but his voice was so soft that no one could hear it except for the two who were closer.

"I don't care what you want, give me back the leaves of the World Tree, or I'll kill her. Aimeh abruptly pulled the crossbow out of her sleeve robe and aimed it at Lua's head.

The surrounding elves all screamed, and many of them also drew their bows and arrows and other weapons that they carried with them, but only Elder Lloyd was still unhurried and said, "Don't be stupid, little girl, for the sake of the two tower masters of the Tower of Teeth, I won't embarrass you too much." ”

"I don't care if you embarrass me or not, I just want the leaves of the World Tree, don't force me to do anything now. Aimeh's hand shaking as she held the crossbow.

"If you dare to do it, you may not be able to do it. Don't forget that this is the Whispering Forest, and you're still standing on top of the Sunwell. Elder Lloyd smiled lightly and gestured with his hand. With a snort, the crossbow in Ai Yimei's hand suddenly changed.

All the wooden parts on the crossbow and the arrows took root, sprouted, branched, leafed, and blossomed at a rapid rate. In the blink of an eye, Ai Yimei was not holding a weapon, but a potted plant full of flowers. The frame fell apart, and the taut bowstring snapped straight up, bounced a large mass of flowers and plants all over the sky, and the metal parts fell to the ground with a thud.

Ai Yimei gritted her teeth and threw herself at the leaves of the World Tree on the altar, but dozens of arm-thick rattans suddenly appeared on the ground at the top of the tree, and instantly intertwined into a cage and locked her inside.

The surrounding elves breathed a sigh of relief, and Elder Lloyd jumped off the shoulder of the Deadwood Warrior, walked to Lua's side, patted her on the shoulder, and whispered, "Don't think too much, didn't you say it yourself, this is his fate." Now that he has that power, he should be responsible. ”

"So you're really eavesdropping?" said Lua, looking at Elder Ai Mei with a strange expression. The conversation between the two of them was within the range of the War Ancient Tree, and as long as one of the many functions on the War Ancient Tree was used, it was indeed easy to eavesdrop, but Lua really didn't expect Elder Lloyd to steal their conversation.

"I'm worried about you. Elder Lloyd shrugged, a pun intended. "When that little girl came to you, I saw that she wasn't applying properly. ”

The old elf then sighed again, and like his unusual aging, there was also a vicissitudes in his words that other elves did not have: "I understand, I understand your feelings." But you have to know that he is just a human being, and human life is very short, and even if he doesn't die now, he will die in another fifty or sixty years. If what the little girl said was true, he died fifty or sixty years earlier, but the entire continent could have five or six hundred years of quiet time, of course, including my elven race. ”

"I understand, I've always understood...... Rua replied with a blank face, turning her head sideways. In the rattan cage, Aiyime had fallen to the ground and cried.

"There's an intruder!" suddenly shouted from a distant tree branch, an elf in charge of guarding the scouting image.

"What, where did you come from, where did you go?" Elder Lloyd asked, his voice still unflustered. After the last misunderstanding war with the Tower of Teeth, the reconnaissance range of the War Ancient Tree has spread to the limit, covering an area of ten miles.

"Right here, out of nowhere!"

"Right here?" Elder Lloyd, Lua, and all the elves looked around vigilantly, but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. "How is it possible?"

The Recon Magic of the War Tree is a product of the magic of the Elder Elven Empire, and there is no way for anyone to fool this Scouting Magic. Elder Lloyd flew to the branch, and on the magic pattern displayed by the reconnaissance magic, there was indeed a point of light representing the intruder, and the location of this point of light was actually on top of the ancient tree of war, to be precise, it coincided with the green point of light representing the leaves of the World Tree.

Elder Lloyd looked at the altar in shock, but the leaves of the World Tree were still lying quietly on the altar, and the dozens of deadwood warriors around him still didn't move.

Elder Lloyd was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he understood something and looked up.

A black shadow quickly fell from above, and although it was high from here, it was already faintly visible that it was a person. And the place where it fell happened to be the location of the altar.
