Chapter 803: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince
When the magician, who no longer looked like a human, appeared in front of the elves again, he still carried a living elf in his hand.
The one who was alive was so weak that he couldn't speak. There were no obvious signs of trauma or bleeding. Then the reason for his languish is the magical rope that is tied to him and exudes powerful power.
Carrying the young elf's rear leader, Lin directly put the person in front of the old king and said, "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." After all, it is His Majesty's biological son, and I am not good at dealing with it. Luckily, he wasn't so strong that I had to use tougher tactics to get him. Therefore, this one will be left to Your Majesty to arrange by yourself. βββ
After saying that, Lin pointed to the forest behind him where the World Tree was located and mentioned another thing.
"βIn addition, I would like to complain that there are not only more than 400 elves in it, but 691 people in the confines of the World Tree. As soon as they saw me, they pulled their throats and killed me, so I fought back. Now there is none left, Your Majesty will not mind. β
From the resistance of the Divine Wood Guards within the scope of the World Tree, Lin was actually vaguely reminding two things. The first incident, the suppression of the Ameran Palace, was immediately known by the Shenmu guards stationed here. That's why when I saw a human being, the elves here didn't even say hello, and killed them directly.
In this regard, if there is a notification mechanism within the kingdom, as long as something happens in the royal palace or royal city, it will use various means of communication to notify the Shenmu Guards stationed in the World Tree, and saying this is more like complimenting the other party for their proper response.
After all, under normal circumstances, when the royal capital is attacked, the Shenmu Guard can become a powerful reinforcement. So the briefing is the right thing to do. But if there is no good reporting mechanism, and the information of the royal capital is known to the army guarding the World Tree so quickly, then the intentions behind it are very debatable.
But another point that has been pointed out is purely to sow discord. As far as the king knew, there were only about 400 elves stationed there, but in fact there were 6 or 700 of them. If it's just a fraction of a bit, there can still be a word. But the difference of nearly half of the number, the extra people, stationed in the confines of the World Tree without the king's knowledge, only proves that the royal power has been isolated.
But what about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Looking at the only living person brought out within the scope of the World Tree, Andre Prier's expression was quite complicated.
When he saw the rain of human heads before, he once thought that his child's head would appear in the mountain of human heads sooner or later. A sense of despair eroded his soul deeply. But when the person is brought out and sees his appearance, in addition to pity, there is also an indescribable feeling of disappointment.
But in any case, when people come out, they still have to give an explanation. Looking at his languishing son, the old king pleaded, "The weakness of the dog must be caused by your magic." If you can cancel it, please cancel it. β
Lin didn't bargain much about this kind of thing, and directly flicked his fingers and lifted the magic that bound the crown prince - the bundle of immortals. Having lost all the debilitating magical bindings, the young elf jumped to his feet and pointed at the only human present, shouting, 'Butcher! Do you know who you're messing with! Elves, my subjects, kill him! Kill this human! Whatever reward you want, I will give you. I am the crown prince of the kingdom of Ameran, and I can grant any request. Kill him! Avenge all the elves! β
When the young prince saw a bunch of pointy-eared people beside him, he subconsciously separated them from the only human being, and tried to use his identity to command his 'subjects'. The result can be imagined, there is no elf to take care of this young prince who jumps on his feet.
In fact, the onlookers, even if they get rid of the position of both the enemy and the enemy, they don't want to be the enemy of the magician now. You don't see the mountains of human heads, and you are silently telling the threat of this magician. This is also a battle that takes place in the realm of the World Tree after the selection of elites from the Elven Kingdom, and at the same time, it is a battle that takes place in the realm of the World Tree.
The miserable situation of these elves in the Kingdom of Ameran threatens all the wood elves and says: Even if you run back to the tribe, there is a world tree covering you, it will not be safe at all.
If you've had the courage to do so, go in and take a look at the magician's methods, and maybe think about how to deal with it. But it was because of military regulations, so no one did it. All of these people regretted it at this time.
Even if you know the other party's methods, you may not be able to deal with it. But the feeling of knowing nothing is very uncomfortable. Especially when I thought that this human being was a clown who was sensationalist and coaxed the hearts of the World Tree; didn't expect that the other party was actually a big guy who could really be on an equal footing with His Majesty. That feeling is even more sour, and there is bitterness that I can't say.
In this case, no matter who you obey, to provoke this magician is really no different from looking for death. Not to mention taking orders from the son of a defeated army to challenge one of the commanders of his own coalition forces.
But the young prince saw that the elves were unmoved, as if he had diverted his resentment, and cursed at the elves. Is there anyone who is not angry at such a change? It's just that the elves who participated in the coalition and were qualified to command the front line did not have that kind of young and frivolous, how could they deal with an unarmed child.
But these outsiders can endure it, how can they endure it when they are fathers. This stupid son is losing his face. Andre Prierza punched his own son in the jaw and knocked him unconscious.
Straightening his sleeves, the old king said with dignity, "May I ask who has ropes or vines to help me tie up this stupid son." When I go back, I will discipline him again. β
After all, it was a king's request, and naturally someone among the wood elves stepped forward and used the vines summoned by the druid spell to tie up the fainting crown prince strongly, and at the same time plugged the stinky mouth. One can imagine how resentful this previous unscrupulous speech was.
At this time, the old king bowed his head rarely, and greeted Lin: "Your Excellency, thank you for your magnanimity and leaving my son alive." β
Lin leaned sideways and bowed his head, saying, "I said it, I'm not here to kill, I'm just fighting back against all unfriendly behaviors." Well, I've also found the location of the World Tree Cloya's Tree Center. Go early to liberate this person's consciousness, and everyone go home early to rest. Except for Your Majesty, everyone else will fix it in place. β
After someone finished speaking, he put his hand on the old king's shoulder and said, "Since it is your family's World Tree, it is better for you to be there." So let's go together. Without waiting for the old king's reply, someone took the king who had no time to refuse, and left in a flash.
The Heart of the World Tree Cloyi's area is not like the heart of the Tree of Fasnas, which is hidden in an area that uses the space folding technique. This place is similar to the Lahti Tree Heart Area that Lin once visited, and everywhere he saw, it was full of magic arrays used by God Slaughter. Evil spirits full of resentment roamed around, constantly consuming the faint consciousness in the heart of the tree.
Judging from the intensity of this resentment, a blood sacrifice was held not long ago. After following a lich for several years, even if Lin can't use undead magic, he still has some basic eyesight. In addition, this God Slaughter Magic Array had been used on the World Tree, so Lin You went to learn more about it.
A closer look at the six pools of blood around the heart of the tree revealed that there were severed limb remains floating on them. As for where the people of the blood sacrifice came from, Lin didn't want to delve into it at all. After all, before they saw the scene here, that group of Shenmu Guards had already been slaughtered by themselves. You can't kill them again to avenge the dead here.
It didn't seem that the old elven king had seen such a scene for the first time, so his performance was far more calm than when the little king Didan III saw the heart of the World Tree Lahti. However, he was more concerned about who it was than the situation of the tree heart, who was sacrificed by the blood of the members of the Shenmu Guard.
If the people of the Shenmu Guard had escaped his control to such an extent, it would be debatable whether the subjects of the blood sacrifice were the ones they had told them to be. So he tried to identify the deceased, or race, from the remaining remains.
The only people who followed someone into the flash were twenty-one envoys holding the World Tree clones in their hands, and another king who had arrived with the army. The tragic situation in the heart area of Chloe Tree cannot move these old and experienced elves. The World Tree will not have any special emotions because of how they are treated by their own race.
If they really cared about the situation of the other World Trees, all the Wood Elf tribes would have turned against the Elven Kingdom long ago. But the truth is that until someone comes up with the plan to transform the Lost Land, all the World Trees don't care about each other, even if one of the Turtledoves becomes the bond between the trees.
But since the World Tree Chloe is to be liberated, the scene in front of him is bound to be dealt with. It's just that...... There are many ways to restore the consciousness of the World Tree, but none of them are about what to do if you have just performed a blood sacrifice ceremony. Therefore, the World Trees were silent, and the Elven Holy Envoys were already outside the situation, and of course they only had a relative eye at this time.
As the magician who was most familiar with the God Butcher Magic Array among the people present, Lin was pushed out to solve the problem at hand. A certain magician from a house is more interested in communicating with people, or fighting and killing, and solving magical problems, so he took on this temporary task as a matter of course.
According to Fen, the age of the God Butcher Magic Array is very old. Therefore, the formation pattern is not like the era when all kinds of magic knowledge were relatively perfect, it has an organized and relatively standardized standard. Because of this, it is a bit more difficult to interpret.
However, with the computing power of twenty-one world trees, all the magic arrays in the maze are edited in plain code according to the terms of the program, and they have not undergone any encryption processing, so the cracking work is not as difficult as imagined. Coupled with the preliminary knowledge obtained from Zifen, after a while, Lin also understood the operation principle of the God Butcher Magic Array.
