Chapter 5: Heart of Light Hotaru, Queen of the Dark Elves
Walking out of the cave, Fei Yue squinted her eyes and began to observe the surrounding situation, but found that time had come to a standstill, the architectural style of the dark elves and the architectural style of the world tree dark elves were similar, but they were different, the statues of the world tree elves were all Fei Yue, and the statue of the dark elves here was another strange person, and even Fei Yue didn't know who this guy was.

Fei Yue crossed over Kang Zhuo who was blocking him, his immature face was full of vigilant looks, as if he felt some kind of strange breath, this breath Fei Yue also felt, but compared to the previous assassination of the mourning song, this breath still lacked a sense of crisis for Fei Yue.
The state of time stagnation did not last long, but the subtle feeling brought by time stagnation lasted a little longer than the state, for Fei Yue, time is untouchable by anyone, maybe someone will be able to run through time in the future, or maybe she is too ignorant, for example, she doesn't know anything about Jing.
When Fei Yue raised her head, Kang Zhuo had already fallen behind Fei Yue, and the two of them did not spend much time in the cave, but just for a short period of time, Hotaru became the queen of the dark elves under the eternal ancient tree in one fell swoop, which has something to do with the power of Hotaru given by Fei Yue, but I am afraid that it is also the crisis that everyone is facing now.
Time began to return to its own trajectory, Kang Zhuo still maintained a posture of protecting Feiyue, but found that Feiyue had already walked in front of him, so he trotted again, came to Feiyue, and continued his escort work, what a stubborn and cute child.
Fei Yue touched Kang Zhuo's head, "Let me come here!" and then gently protected Kang Zhuo behind him, "Hotaru, Ragon-" Fei Yue called, "Tell me my current situation!"
"I'll talk about it first! Hotaru has other things to do!" Ragon led the core members of the Eighth Legion to Fei Yue, "These spiders have strange things about them, if I'm not mistaken, mutated puppet magic!"
"Puppet magic?" Fei Yue's brow furrowed slightly, "The one that demons usually use?"
"No, it's another!" Ragon lifted up the corpse of a spider, which looked a bit like a miniature version of Crimson Snow, except for the different colors, "Look, its arthropods, as well as its body, have magic arrays!" "In the position that Ragon pointed to, several incomplete black ** circles are slowly dissipating," If we guessed correctly, the other party also branded a variety of magic arrays on the spider's soul, but for now, with the different levels in the spider, the complexity of the magic array will also be different, and the spider at the lowest level just obeys the instructions of the upper layer and is not controlled. ”
"How so?" Fei Yue turned her gaze to Hotaru, who was communicating with the dark elves, "Did something happen here before?"
"I've asked about these too!" Ragon said with a sigh, looking at Fei Yue with a strange gaze, "It's said that the leader of the spiders was killed more than twenty years ago, and then another spider queen took advantage of it—"
"Okay, okay! I understand, it's all my fault, but I couldn't help it at the time, I couldn't just watch Femi and them get eaten by spiders, right?" Fei Yue's mood also fell, and in the end she could only spread her hands, "It's all my fault—"
"No, that's not the case!" Hotaru came over with the dark elves, "According to the information I received, the king of the spiders came to attack you because they were bewitched, they are the guardians of the seal, and they will not be okay to attack the humans who enter the seal, so many adventurers have entered the ruins before, haven't they not been attacked?"
"So that means?"
"It's all designed!" Hotaru replied.
"And I guess they guessed you'd be back!" replied Ragon.
"It's fun now!" Fei Yue slumped her shoulders, and a dead leaf of an eternal tree fell in front of her, "The eternal tree is also beginning to wither—"
"What should I do down there?" everyone turned their gaze to Fei Yue, making the burden on Fei Yue's shoulders even heavier.
"How are those spiders attacking now?" asked Fei Yue.
"Individual spiders aren't powerful, it's their venom and the night's sneak attack, and every night passes, we've got a lot of warriors missing!" Ragon replied, "Luckily, they don't use necromancy directly, otherwise it would be a real problem!"
Fei Yue sighed deeply, and under the guidance of the Dark Elves and Ragon, the group came to the Dark Elf Queen's hall, at this time, a dying elder was holding a branch of the World Tree in his hand and standing in front of the hall.
"Queen—" The elder staggered over to Hotaru, wanting to salute but couldn't bend down, black blood running down his hand onto the branch of the World Tree.
Fei Yue looked at the branches of the World Tree that flowed with blood and tried to step forward to heal her wounds but was stopped, and at this moment, another image suddenly appeared in her mind, and it was a picture that she would never forget.
However, when Fei Yue came back to his senses, Hotaru had already taken the branch stained with black blood, and the Dark Elf Elder had already sat on the steps of the queen's palace and died, his skin was shriveled, and everything under his skin was dissolved by the highly poisonous blood, it is conceivable that he had endured so much pain to survive until now, but he handed over the fate of his race to a completely strange woman, although this is also a helpless way, but in any case, it is still too hasty.
But it was strange that all the dark elves present acquiesced in the elder's approach, and they saluted Hotaru who became the queen, calling her queen, with a pious and humble expression, which was incomprehensible to Fei Yue, and as far as Fei Yue's observation, Ragon and his party on the side did not seem to understand either, but no one spoke.
The queen's handover ceremony will naturally not be so simple, but now is a very moment, so everything is simple, when Hotaru takes over the branches of the World Tree, the war preparations will be in full swing, of course, the dominance here will return to Feiyue, after all, although this is still a city of dark elves, but it is Feiyue's army that is responsible for guarding here, and those soldiers are veterans of a hundred battles, and it is precisely because of this that they can hold on to Feiyue's reinforcements in this way.
"Mother, I feel a breath!" At this time, Kang Zhuo pulled the corner of Fei Yue's clothes and said to Fei Yue.
"I know, this breath is somewhat similar to yours, maybe it's Kang Zhuo's sister?" Fei Yue pinched Kang Zhuo's cheek and said jokingly.
"No way, Kang Zhuo won't hurt any innocent creatures, and neither will Kang Zhuo's family!" Kang Zhuo said, clenching his little fist, "This is what our mother has always taught us, isn't it?"
Facing Kang Zhuo's pure eyes, Fei Yue was faceless, she squatted in front of Kang Zhuo, looking at Kang Zhuo's eyes, "Yes, no matter what, we should not harm innocent lives, even the undead have life!" As she spoke, the corners of Fei Yue's eyes began to overflow with crystal tears, which were the emotions she had been trying to keep, but as things got out of control, these emotions began to gradually become thin.
"Alright, Kang Zhuo will go and see if there is anything that needs help from the dark elves, and leave the battle to us!" At this time, Ragon also squatted down and said to Kang Zhuo, who was looking at Feiyue.
Kang Zhuo looked at Fei Yue, and after receiving the affirmation, he turned to look at Ragon again, then nodded firmly, and ran to Hotaru to assist the dark elf, and Fei Yue wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes without a trace, and began to turn his heart back to the upcoming battle, "Tell me about the real situation now!" Fei Yue set up a magic array in the camp tent, and then asked.
"Let me explain!" Ya Yu sighed slightly, his armor has been renewed, but the style is no longer the style of the previous knights, but the standard armor of the Eighth Legion, in order to hide people's eyes, and deliberately painted some patterns on it, Ragon is a white giant eagle with open wings, and Ya Yu's is a red dragon.
"If there is no accident, now the ruins have been completely occupied by spiders, there may still be some living people, after all, those adventurers are also very ghostly, not so easy to be killed, but I'm afraid it won't be able to help us, those spiders are not afraid of fire, although the shell is hard but fragile, it can be easily killed with a blunt weapon, among them is a spider with a skeleton tattooed on its body that will spit venom, everything else is similar, at least for us!"
As he spoke, Ragon paused slightly, "Then, our current situation is very unoptimistic, the casualties of the dark elves are very serious, what you see so far are all their survivors, and our warriors are also very tired, those spiders are very good at sneak attacks, and their leaders are also very cunning, they hardly give us any respite, as long as the warriors guarding the city wall take a nap, there will inevitably be spiders rushing up to change their lives, so it is only a matter of time before we are defeated!"
"Can we lure out the leader of the other party?" Fei Yue thought for a moment and asked, "When we dealt with demons before, as long as the leader was killed, the army below would also break up and flee, although we didn't expect to escape, but at least we could have a chance to breathe!"
"It's very unlikely, or rather, the bait we gave us wasn't enough to attract it, if you-" At this time, Tees also walked into the tent, and happened to hear Fei Yue's words, so he continued Fei Yue's words, and when Fei Yue turned his head to look at Tis, he was silent for a moment, this guy actually tattooed a bewitching succubus on his armor-
"No, if Your Majesty has a case, it's not a joke, just for a few hundred dark elves, the price and reward are too small!" Ragon immediately rejected Tess's proposal, "And how many times have I said it, even if it's a human woman, why tattoo a succubus? Replace it, and we'll replace it when we get back!"
"Let's--uh-let's discuss the next matters first!" Tis touched his head, it was nothing to a group of men, but now that Fei Yue was also present, he was naturally embarrassed to say anything, and it was over like this.
