Chapter 168: Traitor
Wren was ushered into the Dark Elves' parlor. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The living room is a huge rattan house hanging from a large tree.
Entering it, Wren found that the vines that had woven the house were alive.
After a little inquiry, he learned that this vine was an ancient vine attached to this "tree of life", and all the houses were woven from its branches.
The rattan house is more than 100 square meters, only a carpet made of rattan leaves and a few rattan chairs, which is quite simple.
Lilith invited Wren to sit on a wicker chair and spoke a few words in the language of the Dark Elves to the other beautiful female elf beside her. The elf departed, and when she returned, she filled the leaves with a lot of bright fruit and two glasses of crystal clear water.
Under her expectant gaze, Wren picked up a fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, and a sweet smell spread between his mouth.
"Delicious fruit. Wren laughed.
He took the water in a hard husk, and after taking a sip, he instantly felt a burst of clarity in his brain, and the crystals in his eyebrows were much purer.
"You are the first human to appear in our tribe in over a hundred years," Lilith said with a smile, "Your Excellency the Wizard. ”
"But I've never heard of it before. Wren spoke.
Lilith said, "It's the tree god who won't let it be passed on, so please don't tell us about our existence after Lord Ren leaves, is that okay?"
Wren bowed.
Lilith said happily, "That's great, I'm going to show you around our place." ”
Seeing her non-fake expression, Wren looked away from her chest with a strange feeling.
Are the elf girls so big-chested and brainless, or do they look like good people who say they are?
No matter what he thinks in his heart, Wren is still full of curiosity about this mysterious world.
Led by Lilith, he visited the Lower Elven tribe and inquired about the place.
From Lilith's mouth, Wren learned that this place is very close to the back of the Dragon Continent.
To be more precise, this inner world actually exists in a crack in the Demon Continent.
Based on this, the forces here are entangled, and wars often occur.
Fortunately, the dark elf tribe is deep in the cracks, and the protection of the tree god makes this place relatively safe.
Priest Lilith is more than a hundred years old, but in fact she is equivalent to a teenager of the human race. She grew up under the protection of an old priest and was not deeply involved in the world, so she was curious about humans and had little defense.
On the fifth day of Wren's arrival, after the old priest who had gone out to run errands returned, Wren rarely saw this simple and beautiful elf girl.
The old priestess Anvina looked like a young Terran woman in her twenties and thirties, with a hot body and beautiful appearance, and her attitude towards Wren was guarded.
Wren had already gotten the information he wanted from Lilith, so after seeing Avenna's attitude, he planned to leave the place.
Before he could leave, the tree of life, known as the god of trees, suddenly shook.
A sharp roar rang out over the tribe.
When Wren walked out of the rattan house, he saw the elves in the various rattan houses jumping down from it quickly, dense and magnificent.
Wren was stunned for a moment, Avena flapped her wings to Wren's wisteria house, and said to Wren: "Your Excellency Wren, can you please take care of Lilith?"
"What's going on?" Wren asked, seeing the unconcealed sadness on her face.
Anvina said, "Nakes colluded with demons and came to invade our tribe. ”
Wren raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
He had finally been treated favorably by the Dark Elf tribe, and as a good person who had repaid his kindness, Wren felt the need to help.
Anvena glanced at Wren and shook her head, "Thank you for your kindness, but please take care of Lilith, if the tribe is in crisis, I hope you can help her resist the enemy within your ability." ”
In her heart, she thought that Ren was only a first-order blood crystal wizard after all, although it would have an effect, but the demon invited by the other party had a second-order demon general, and Ren's action would not have much effect.
Wren did not explain that his strength had recovered to the second order, and seeing that the other party had rejected him, he shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking.
Just express your attitude at the right time, being too enthusiastic is not necessarily a good thing.
After receiving Wren's promise, Avena flew away.
The Dark Elf archers departed.
Wren hesitated for a moment, and strode out of the vine house, followed by a fresh breeze that carried him towards the top of the tree.
Outside the vine house at the top of the tree, Wren stretched out his hand, and the vines in the doorway parted automatically, revealing a door that allowed a person to pass through.
Wren stepped inside and saw Lilith with a haggard face.
Lilith's eyes were red, and she asked, "Mom asked you to come, right?"
Wren gave her a reassuring look.
He could feel that a special seal had been placed on Lilith's body, preventing her from wielding her powers.
"Wren, can you take me over, I can't hide here while my people bleed. Lilith pleaded.
"What happens to the Tree of Life if you leave?" Wren asked.
......
From previous exchanges, Wren learned that this tree of life is the foundation of the dark elves.
The original dark elves did not belong here, they lived in a different and more vast world.
The elves are the masters of that world, and the dark elves are a very small one.
An invasion of the gods of the xenoplane caused the elves to be wiped out. With the help of the Tree of Life, the surviving Dark Elf Priests arrived in this world with the Tree of Life Seed and multiplied for thousands of years before finally developing into their current size.
This time, the dominant invader is a traitor from the Dark Elves named Naketh.
Among the dark elf tribes, the highest status is the priest, and the strength is equivalent to that of the blood crystal wizard. They are able to communicate with the tree of life and gain power.
Except for the first priests, who were born from the sacred tree, the other priests were derived from blood. They are born with wings and can master elven spells.
Second only to the Priests are the Legendary Archers, the equivalent of the Terran Sky Knights, but more powerful than the Sky Knights - they can obtain spell-like powers through the Priest's blessing.
Naketh is a legendary archer and a thousand-year-old genius among the Dark Elves.
He once courted Avena but was rejected. In a fit of rage, he kills his partner, Lilith's father, and defects from the Dark Elf tribe.
According to the information he received from the Elven Secret Codex, he learned that refining the Tree of Life with a special secret method can give him the power of transformation.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to collude with demons, intending to destroy this former race of his own.
