Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Tree of Life, the Royal City
Chen Tang felt that his eyes were not enough, and looked around, like a dirt bun entering the city. The pen is so shocking www.biquge.info, is this really a tree?
Saviak didn't urge, just led the way in front, and Chen Tang followed step by step. The tree city is divided into many layers, and the covered bridge on the bottom layer is very wide and open, and it can almost walk away from five riding beasts side by side. Elves in twos and threes, dressed in their own gorgeous and beautiful costumes, enter and exit among them. From time to time, fish will jump out of the lake and be fed by food thrown by the elves. And in the sky, in the space between the layers of covered bridges and treehouses, all kinds of beautiful birds shuttle freely. Chen Tang even saw a huge eagle and a big bird with a long feathered tail like a phoenix. On its back sat an elf.
"This is our Eagle Mount and Painted Sparrow Mount, and only elves who have been approved by birds can ride. Of course, if in war, they are also the best air cavalry troops. "This is the background, the reason why the elves occupy the best silver jungle naturally has its strength.
Follow Savjak across the covered bridge and into the island in the middle of the lake, where Nemo the Lion can't go deeper. Chen Tang appeased him and told him to stay and not run around............ I didn't see all the unicorns, giant horned deer, cheetahs that could be seen everywhere...... If you are alone, you will only ask for trouble.
The lion Nemo is cute, but not stupid, he naturally knows that he has to be restrained in other people's territory, so he obediently lies in the position designated by Chen Tang and sleeps lazily. ............ These are the two great hobbies of lions, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating. Sometimes Chen Tang wondered if he would lose the instinct of a beast in the future if he was so used to it.
"Your lion is intelligent and gentle. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really doubt that he would actually be a mid-level demonic beast, and you trained him very well. Savjak also praised Nemo's performance. After all, even if the elves want to get mounts, they need to put in a lot of patience and effort, and sometimes even danger.
"I haven't trained it. You won't believe it when you say it, but in the Yangu Desert, it was its dead skin that haunted me. I couldn't help it, so I took it with me. Chen Tang said with some amusement, and followed Savjak up the tree ladder to the second floor of the royal city.
"Oh, are you telling the truth?" asked Saviak, somewhat surprised.
Chen Tang nodded, there's no need to lie about this, right?
Glancing at Chen Tang deeply, Savjak said leisurely: "Well, you have a wonderful aura on you, which allows you to get in touch with the creatures in nature. As long as you release your kindness, then unless it is a vicious beast by nature, it will respond to your kindness. ”
Chen Tang was surprised, he naturally knew that he had the ability in his body and could control the power of the elements. Although it is no longer possible to leave the body, it can still be used by touch. This is supposed to be what Savjak calls a wonderful breath, but how does he know about it?
Seeing Chen Tang's doubts, Saviak explained with a smile: "Don't worry, I didn't deliberately probe your secret. It's just the instinct of our elves, and just like your abilities, we are children of nature, born with the ability to be in tune with the elements of nature. So it's not surprising to perceive the power in you. And that's why I agreed to take you into the Silver Jungle and even introduce you to the Queen. ”
"Then Your Excellency Savjak, do you think I can learn magic, or do I have the qualifications to learn magic?" Chen Tang asked, this is very important, and it is related to whether he can return home in the future.
"I'm sorry I can't answer you on this point, because I'm just an ordinary elder in charge of combat. As for teaching magic and developing the potential of the body, it's up to the Great Elders to answer your questions. Savjak shook his head and said apologetically.
Chen Tang nodded and said no more, and began to think about the meeting with the queen, how to gain the favor of the other party?
Something suddenly came to mind: "Your Excellency Savjak, I have a very presumptuous question...... You look very young, but you have become an elven elder, and I am curious about your age...... Of course, if this is rude, please accept my apologies. ”
"Haha, it's okay. Savjak smiled happily and seemed to be complimented: "This kind of problem is only mentioned by you foreigners, in fact, you may not believe it, my real age is two hundred years old." ”
"What?" Chen Tang almost jumped up: "Two hundred years old, how is this possible?" According to the lifespan of earthlings, this completely subverted his cognition.
"Nothing is impossible, compared to other races, we elves have a long lifespan. Two hundred years old is just entering middle age, and usually our lifespan is between 500 and 800 years old. ”
Oh, so it's racial. Chen Tang almost wanted to discuss with the other party how to maintain his health. When I heard Savjak's words, I was relieved............ Also, in the novels of a certain point on the earth, aren't those elves also known for their longevity? And he is not a man who has not seen longevity. Take the old Junker, the god of the Falatuk world, for example, I am afraid that he is already an old monster who has lived for thousands of years, as for the even more terrifying Lord of the Starry Sky...... I didn't dare to think about it at all.
Talking all the way, they walked up layer by layer. As it gradually ascended, it was now able to overlook the entire silver forest, and the canopy of the holy white tree was at the foot like a plain made of silver, facing the magnificent sun. And then ascend to the top of the royal city, where the elven queen lives in the royal palace, the core of the elven clan.
Amazingly, when they set foot on the top of the royal city, the first thing they saw was a fountain, the gurgling crystal clear, meandering through the sculptures of two white deer, forming a small lake in the pool at their feet. Bypass the small fountain and see the halls of the Queen's Palace behind you. Savjak said that only the most distinguished guests would be in this hall. Ordinary guests came, and usually the queen would go to the lower level of the royal city to meet. Chen Tang was still a little proud............ It seems that I am still very valued!
Entering the hall, Chen Tang saw that on the throne in front of the open palace, there was an elf woman wearing a crown on her head. Her beauty is almost indescribable, and Chen Tang's breath was paused at that moment. If it weren't for the fact that I heard Saviak say that the queen was almost six hundred years old, I would have even thought that the other party was still a young girl in the flower season.
Around the queen stood several elves with silver-white hair, who were obviously extremely old, and these should be the so-called elven elders. Chen Tang began to wonder...... The standard of this reception is too grand, even if it is to meet a king, how can you look up to yourself so much?
The palace gate behind him closed at some point, and Savjak took a few steps back, leaving Chen Tang in the middle of the hall with an apologetic face. Then the beautiful ornaments on the walls around this hall, which Chen Tang didn't have time to observe, actually swam as if they had come to life, changing from ornaments to formations full of mystical rules, and a faint light rose, covering the surrounding space, and he was imprisoned in it.
was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but sneer: "It turns out that your so-called interview is a trap, to lure me in and arrest me." I don't know where I've offended the elves, why, do you want to kill me just because I'm from another world?"
Chen Tang showed anger, but secretly approached the invisible barrier, trying to find the weakness. There was no doubt that the barrier had similarities with the magical barrier at the edge of the Silver Forest, and since it was all made of elements, he might be able to find a chance to break it.
"I'm sorry to treat you like this, Lord Brian. "But you're from another world, and maybe you don't know what it means for our world," said Savjak, "but you're from another world. But we had to do it before we were sure you had no bad intentions. ”
"Haha, malicious?Savjak, I've told you more than once that I was innocently caught up in the space tunnel and fell into your world. I just want to find my way home, and I have no interest in your world. If you hate me, then help me build a teleportation array and send me away, I won't linger for even a second. ”
Chen Tang felt that he had been deceived, and it turned out that the kindness along the way was all fake. The world suddenly made him feel terrible............ I thought that elves were simple, but I didn't expect to be as unpredictable as humans.
"Aliens, no one will hurt you. But before you can do that, you need to make sure that you came into this world by accident and not by some kind of conspiracy. The Elven Queen spoke, and from her voice she could feel a trace of the vicissitudes of time.
"Then how do you want me to prove it? Do you want to dismantle me into a little bit of research?" Chen Tang's tone was slightly sarcastic.
"It's very simple, it only takes you to pass the test of the Tree of Life. If the Tree of Life approves of you, then you will be safe and sound, and you will be treated with the best hospitality by the Elves. The Queen said. She didn't say what would happen if she couldn't pass the test, and it was estimated that the end would definitely not be good.
Chen Tang has a clear conscience, so he can naturally accept the test, but it is not his character to be slaughtered by others. He smiled at the queen and pressed his hands against the invisible magical barrier, suddenly unleashing the power of control through contact. Violent ripples appeared in an instant before meeting, and the shaking became faster and faster. Before the elves changed color in unison, and before they even had time to react, Chen Tang actually passed through the barrier, took a few steps, and came to the queen, only a few meters away.
The elven elders took out their staffs in horror, and Savjak was also in a stunned daze behind them, and at the same time panicked...... For fear that Chen Tang would be unfavorable to the queen.
But Chen Tang just stared at the queen whose expression had never changed, smiled, then took a few steps back, spread his hands and said with a leisurely smile: "I agree to accept the test." ”
