Chapter 19: The Moonflower Forest
In the western part of the Tran continent, there is a forest that stretches for hundreds of miles. www.biquge.info This forest is full of all kinds of rare trees, and there are all kinds of unknown precious herbs hidden in the corners.
The abundance of products here has attracted the attention of the church, but for thousands of years, the church has never been able to extend its tentacles to this place known as the Moonflower Forest.
The Yuehua Forest has been the place where the elves have settled down since ancient times, and countless elves have lived carefree in it. The Silver Moon Elf is the most noble existence among the elves and the ruler of the entire Yuehua Forest.
Not only do they control the flesh of all the elves in the Moonlight Forest, but they also control their faith.
The Silver Moon Elves claim to be descendants of the God of the Silver Moon, and the God of the Silver Moon is the supreme god of the Elves, so they not only hold the highest authority in the secular realm of the Elves, the Council of Elders, but also establish the Silvermoon Church to spread the teachings of the God of the Silver Moon.
On several occasions, the Church and the Human Empire have organized joint armies to occupy the Moonflower Forest and plunder its rich resources, but they have all been desperately resisted by these Silver Moon Divine Descendants.
But the treasure is moving, and every year, countless mercenary groups and adventure groups sneak into the outskirts of the Yuehua Forest, and they loot everything they can see, including elves.
The actions of these mercenary groups have to be said to be secretly promoted by the church, and even the church is selling powerful magic scrolls on the periphery of the Yuehua Forest.
Therefore, the church and the Silver Moon Elves have an irreconcilable blood feud, and once they meet, it will definitely result in the defeat of one side.
In the core area of the Yuehua Forest, in a hall with a natural style, dozens of powerful elves were arguing.
The hall was clearly divided into two groups, and the number of people on one side accounted for almost more than two-thirds, and they were almost all silver moon elves with scattered silver hair and white robes. On the other side, not only are the numbers pitiful, but the robes and hair colors are colorful.
Last night, the fall of a godborn shocked the entire Yuehua Forest, and these elders belonging to the Council of Elders gathered overnight to discuss the matter.
A godborn fell in the Sosa Mountains and, before dying, unleashed a secret technique that would perish with their enemies, and although they did not witness the arrival of the Pillar of Moonlight, the people of the Silvermoon Church proved it with their secret arts. And also vaguely states that the matter is related to the human church.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the Silver Moon Elf Elven Elders, who made up the majority of the Council of Elders, clamored for a war with the humans, and at least the human church to pay a heavy price, letting them know that the elves were not easy to mess with.
The minority, on the other hand, stubbornly asked why a godborn appeared in the Sosa Mountains in the north of the continent, and why they didn't even receive the slightest rumor.
At the same time, they strongly demanded that the Church disclose the specific process of the fall of the Descendant of God, rather than the current vague statement that it was related to the human Church.
Otherwise, they refused to agree to a war with the Human Church, and it was not in the interests of the elves to start a war rashly. In particular, it is not in the interests of the lower elves they represent.
One of the elders of the Silver Moon Elves slammed the table hard, and he said in a deep voice, "This is a provocation, a provocation from humans to our elves, and if we don't respond strongly, then humans will think we are weak and deceitful. ”
"But if they take the opportunity to provoke an all-out war again, that's probably not what you here want to see. A wood elf elder in a green robe spoke softly.
When it comes to all-out war, everyone in the hall is physically stunned, and most of them have experienced the last all-out war with humanity, which is really a bad memory.
After half a ring, another Silver Moon Elf spoke, "Total War... Presumably no one will let it happen, including the human side, who is not willing to provoke an all-out war, but we should do deal them a heavy blow. ”
Frowning, the Elder Wood Elf said in a stern tone, "But we must know why the Divine Descendant is there!
Without waiting for the other side to speak, the elder said in a quiet tone, "Also, I heard that you have discovered a new race in the Sosa Mountains, and how many have you captured?"
The silver-haired elves on the opposite side turned extremely bad, those green-skinned dwarves, they only got the news last night, how did these lowly wood elves know, they actually got the news so quickly. This couldn't help but make the Silver Moon Elf think more.
The topic of the fall of the Progentes has been put on hold for the time being, and they have been arguing for a long time without coming to a conclusion, and now everyone's attention is on the new race.
Those ugly green-skinned dwarves? A high-ranking Silver Moon Elf's eyes gradually showed a cold glow, and he said gloomily: "The God of the Silver Moon has sent down oracles, they are all green-skinned demons, they are the enemies of the Silver Moon, we must exterminate them all!"
The elders representing the elves at the bottom have joined each other, the god of the silver moon actually sent down an oracle, this is not something they can disobey, as for the truth of the oracle, they have no doubts, even if the silver moon elves dare not forge the oracle, this is a felony of blasphemy.
The Elder Wood Elf coughed lightly, and he said slowly, "But, when I prayed to the Tree of Life last night......"
"Carl, do you want to die!" an elder who was sitting in the front row and represented the Silvermoon Church directly interrupted the words of the Wood Elf elder Karl, and he said word by word with compassion, "You have to think about every word you say next, don't make a mistake!"
With a vigorous wave of the staff in his hand, the elder of the Silver Moon Church said mockingly, "If you want to die, I can fulfill you now! If you still don't want to die, and you don't want to affect your people, then you shut up! You must not be willing to fall!"
The hall became dead silent, and it was a long time before the faint sound of breathing could be heard. Once it comes to the hidden things of faith, it is not something that these elders from ordinary races such as wood elves and grass elves can control.
Their only influence is only in worldly matters, to fight for a little benefit for their own people.
Karl was silent for a long time before he whispered, "I would like to follow the oracle of the God of the Silver Moon. After Carl spoke, the rest of the ordinary elders acquiesced to the Silver Moon Elf's proposal.
The Great Elder of the Silver Moon Elf, who is also the Great Elder of the Council of Elders, was silent for a long time and finally spoke: "The matter of giving the Human Church a blow is settled, and we must send a strong combat force to teach them a lesson. As for the green-skinned dwarves who have been captured, let's just purify them! Well, this matter is decided!"
The Great Elder turned his head and looked around again and asked, "Do you have anything else to add?"
Wherever the Great Elder's gaze fell, the elves everywhere lowered their heads to express their approval.
"Well, then, let the meeting end. “
Karl stood up and bowed slightly to the statue of the Silver Moon God, showing his respect, and walked out of the hall without saying a word.
