-95- Priestly elders with a respectful attitude
Since a warrior came to invite, Charlotte went with the flow and accepted the other party's kindness.
Following the fur warrior through the rows of thatched huts, she soon came to the Tower of Shelter on the hillside.
When Charlotte entered the tower, the priests and elders of the tribe were already waiting there.
It was an old man, with silver hair and a tired look.
He was dressed in the traditional garb of the elves, and his legs seemed to be disabled, and he could only sit half-on a chaise longue.
Feeling the surging transcendent aura on the other party's body and the smell similar to that of the priests of the Divine Court, Charlotte's heart moved slightly:
This is a priest!
The priesthood of Artemis, the god of the moon!
At the sight of Charlotte, the old priest smiled.
I saw that he was supported by the warriors, and bowed to Charlotte tremblingly, and then said respectfully:
"May the protection of the moonlight be with you, and please forgive me, honorable Heir of the Apocalypse, for not being able to meet you in person after knowing of your arrival......"
"My name is Enge, and I am the priest elder of the Beishan tribe, is there anything I can do for you?"
Looking at the old priest's respectful and enthusiastic appearance, Charlotte was surprised.
The status of the elves seemed to be higher than she imagined, and even she, a half-elf, would be treated with such courtesy.
She was still thinking about how she would respond if the other party asked her about her origin, but she didn't expect the other party to ask at all.
After thinking about it, Charlotte said tentatively:
"I do need some help from you, Mr. Enge."
"To tell you the truth, I was rescued by His Excellency Hafdan of your tribe after waking up in the wilderness, and I forgot a lot of things after waking up......"
"If I could, I'd like to be able to ask you for some information about the Apocalypse, and if you have a collection of myths or history here, I'd like to be able to borrow them."
"In this way, I hope to see if I can revive the lost memory......"
Listening to Charlotte's words, Elder Engel looked embarrassed:
"Lord Apocalypse, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, our Beishan tribe has been strictly abiding by the requirements of the Central Tower, and we don't hold any books, let alone books on mythology and history...... You'll probably have to go to the Central Tower to find these things. ”
"If you want to inquire about the Apocalypse, I know some, but I'm afraid it's only scratching the surface, after all, although I am a priest in the tribe, I am only a mortal who believes in moonlight, and I can't receive the favor of God like you."
"However, the central tower will send envoys every three months, and there are still more than two months before the next envoy arrives, if you don't dislike it, you can rest and rest in our tribe, and when the envoys from the tower come, they will definitely take you back and help you awaken your memories."
Elder Eng looked earnest and respectful.
But Charlotte felt an indescribable subtlety.
How does it feel...... What does this priest or elder believe?
Didn't he doubt his origins at all?
Charlotte was puzzled, but her face remained silent, and she continued to ask:
"Mr. Enge, it's okay just to scratch the surface, I can't think of many, many things, even the common sense in this world is the knowledge I need to know."
Elder Eng nodded and said respectfully:
"I see, what exactly do you want to know? As long as I know something, I will know everything. ”
Receiving this answer, Charlotte's subtlety in her heart became stronger.
However, since the other party said so, she was no longer polite, but began to inquire about all kinds of common sense about the world like a person who really had lost her memory.
As promised, the priest elder Enge also patiently answered Charlotte's various questions one by one, which allowed Charlotte to truly have a further understanding of this era.
While asking, Charlotte corroborated each other with the various classics she had read before crossing over, and gradually, she pieced together the worldview of this era in her heart......
First of all, if nothing else, she really slept thousands of years ago.
Or more precisely, it should be the end of the Elven Age between 2,800 and 3,000 years ago.
The country she is in, called the Land of the Tower, should be one of the first elves to reach Miria, and it is located in the north of the continent of Miria, almost the region where the tribes of the northern realm are located in later generations, on the plateau north of the Count of Castel.
The elves were revered as the Apocalypse during this era, and their descendants with humans were called the Heirs of the Apocalypse.
The Apocalypse are the rulers of the kingdoms, and the Heirs of the Apocalypse are the spokesmen of the Apocalypse and the direct administrators of mortals, who act as if they were royals and nobles.
They provide refuge to mortals, and mortals offer them loyalty and tribute.
It is precisely because of the protection of the "Apocalypse" that mortals can survive in this chaotic era, and the source of all chaos, the evil gods and desolate beasts that have awakened since the eternal, are the common enemies of mortals and the apocalypse.
This information corresponds to the history that Charlotte knew.
The so-called evil gods are naturally the old gods who have been awakened by the arrival of the elves in the Miria Continent, and the desolate beasts are naturally all kinds of demonic beasts that have mutated under the influence of the blood of the gods.
It is clear that the war between the elves and the old gods has been going on for quite some time in this era.
The leader of the elven race is none other than Artemis, the moon god, and as for the side of the old gods, there are different opinions, and Elder Engel, who is a mortal, does not know much.
In addition, the other gods of the later generations have not yet appeared, including the True Ancestor of Blood, the God of Creation, the Sea King, or the God of Contract......
In other words, the era after Charlotte's awakening is a time before the beginning of the magnificent mythological era in history, when those old gods have not fallen one after another, and the godhead has not yet been acquired by all kinds of lucky people!
"Lord Apocalypse, is there anything else you want to know?"
Seeing Charlotte in thought, Elder Eng asked respectfully.
Charlotte came back to her senses and shook her head:
"Hmm...... Thank you for your answer, Mr. Enge, I don't have any more questions for the time being. ”
"So what's next for you? If you want to stay and wait for the messenger of the Tower to arrive, I can arrange the best accommodation in the tribe for you; If you want to go to the central tower, I can also send someone to escort you. ”
"The central tower is located in the south, and it will take about a month to get there, and it will take more than two months to wait for the messenger to arrive, but you can follow the messenger through the Divine Grace Circle to the tower without having to travel alone."
Elder Eng said again.
Divine Grace Circle?
Could it be ...... Referring to the teleportation array?
Charlotte's heart fluttered slightly.
She thought about Hafdan's two children and said:
"I'd better stay here for a while."
She had already found a way to increase her strength, and it didn't matter if she wasn't in such a hurry to go to the Central Tower, let alone meet the two children of the suspected Blood True Ancestor and the Creation God Lord here.
Listening to Charlotte's words, Elder Eng smiled and said:
"Everything naturally follows your wishes......"
After deciding whether to stay or go, Elder Enge sent someone to arrange accommodation for Charlotte.
Before leaving the tower, Charlotte's heart moved slightly, and her hand quietly turned, leaving behind a piece of blood magic for listening, the Eye of Shadows.
Elder Engel's attitude was too friendly and unsuspecting, which made her feel unsteady, and she planned to quietly probe the other party's bottom.
To Charlotte's surprise, as soon as she left with her front foot, she "saw" Hafdan, who was supposed to be waiting at home, enter the tower through listening magic.
