Chapter 114: Dragon Ryles

By this time, the garden was already crowded with elementals, and the elementals whispered to each other, but Ace heard it clearly.

"It is said that today's banquet is for human beings. What's wrong with Your Majesty? How can a human race, a lower race, be worthy of the banquet of our elemental envoys? ”

"Hmph, what's more! In my opinion, humans should not enter the Ancient Forest! According to the laws of the kingdom, we have the right to kill those who enter the ancient forest without authorization! ”

"This man is said to have a good relationship with the princess. I don't know what kind of thing he gave the princess! ”

......

Listening to the conversation of these elemental envoys, Ace could only shake his head helplessly. Their contempt for humanity has long been ingrained.

Seeing Ace walk into the garden, Jennifer walked over with a smile: "It's coming." ”

The elemental causes the nobles and elders of the kingdom to cast various glances at Ace as well, including contempt, indifference, and ridicule.

Ace turned a blind eye to this and only whispered to Jennifer.

Soon after, a beautiful fairy in a light yellow dress and tulle also entered the garden.

Her eyes were bright and bright, and there weren't many mood swings between her eyebrows. Her long, flowing white hair was draped over her shoulders. Unlike the first time Ace saw her, this time, she wears a silver moon crown on her head.

She wears a pearl necklace around her white neck. Those round, white pearls were much darker than her skin.

Obviously, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Elemental Kingdom has made full preparations for today's banquet. It is estimated that this is also the etiquette of the elemental envoys.

After Goliath entered the place, the atmosphere here suddenly changed subtly. Those elemental envoys who saw the cold and contemptuous contempt on Ace's face showed sincerity and awe in their eyes when they saw these beautiful elemental envoys, and their expressions became much more relaxed. Greet the elements of beauty with a smile.

"Oh, dear princess, you are so beautiful today!"

"You are as pure and bright as the moon in the sky."

Although these words sounded a little numb, from the eyes of those who spoke elementally, Ace could not see any hypocrisy, and they were all full of sincerity.

The elemental envoys themselves believed in Lurcy, the god of the night, and Golia, whom they called the incarnation of the god of the night, was naturally greatly respected and revered.

In ancient records of the Elemental Angels, the Elemental Angels were created by the night god Lursey. The elemental make was originally just an element between heaven and earth. Lursey, the god of the night, endowed them with the power of the moon, creating a unique body and soul for them to become true beings.

This is a legend about the ancient Elemental Messenger and the origin of the Elemental Messenger who the Elemental Envoy believed.

In their perception, the Elemental Envoys were able to resonate with nature because the night god Lursey had given them such abilities.

The banquet itself was set up to entertain Ace. Ace is supposed to be the main character, but that's not the case. After Goliath appeared, she naturally became the focus of the audience.

Countless elemental envoys and nobles came forward to welcome her warmly and highly praise her beauty and purity.

Jennifer looked at her sister with a smile and whispered to Ace, "The elders say that my sister is the most beautiful fairy princess in the history of the fairy tale kingdom, and will become the most noble guardian of the night god in the fairy tale kingdom in the future. ”

"Guardian of the Night God?" Ace was confused and didn't understand what the so-called Guardian of the Night God was.

Jennifer explains, "We elemental make every autumn full moon with a grand ceremony to worship Lursey, the god of the night. The guardians of the god of the night, chosen by the kingdom of the Elemental Envoys, are the ones who perform the rituals. ”

"The former guardian of the god of the night is already old, so two years ago, Golia took her place as the 425th guardian of the god of the night in our kingdom of elemental envoys, responsible for receiving the guidance of the god of the night, Lursey, and praying for our elemental envoys."

Ace nodded after hearing this. It seems that the moon does have extraordinary significance and status for the elemental envoys.

To the nobles who took the initiative to greet them, Golia nodded politely, but there was still not a hint of a smile on her face, like the calm waters of a lake in spring.

Wherever Golia passes, there will be a plethora of elements that make the nobles, which is in stark contrast to Ace's cold and bleak.

Throughout the process, Ace's eyes almost never leave the Elemental Princess who made the kingdom beautiful. It seems that there is an indescribable charm about her that fascinates Ace deeply.

After she sat down, the nobles returned to their respective places and sat down.

At this moment, the Elemental King walked into the banquet hall. One by one, all the elemental messengers who had been talking and laughing in low voices stood up and bowed to the king with great respect.

At the side of the Elemental King, there is a beautiful and generous female Elementalist whose eyebrows are somewhat similar to Goliath's, but she is clearly older and is the Queen of the Elemental Kingdom.

Before that, Ace also learned a lot of elemental etiquette from Jennifer. At this time, Ace also stood up and bent half in awkwardness.

The Elemental King seemed to be in a good mood at this time, with a heavy smile on his face. Seeing that most of the people had arrived, he smiled and said, "Let's start the feast." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sweet and touching sound of the flute outside the garden.

After the orchestral music is over, the banquet officially begins.

The Elemental King scanned the room and said, "Today is a very special day for our Elemental Envoy. This is the first time in more than 20 years that we have hosted a human being. As for why, let Simon explain it briefly. ”

Hearing this, Simon stood up and saluted the Elemental King, and then said to the entire audience, "Yesterday, I went to the stargazing platform. ”

As soon as he said this, the elemental nobles and elders began to whisper.

You know, as the high priest of the kingdom of the elemental envoys, Simon rarely did astrology. Because every astrology requires a lot of astrological starlight.

Starlight is the radiance of the stars that the High Priest absorbs every night. Generally, it takes one to two years to absorb before it is enough for astrology.

Since Simon has already done astrology once, this means that he will not be able to do astrology again in the next year or two.

"The results of the astrology are very good. Many stars hug the moon, which is an extremely rare phenomenon. It's going to be a rising star! ”

As soon as Simon's words were heard, the banquet hall was in chaos again.

"How is it possible that all the stars are holding the moon?"

"You know, the last time there was such an astrological result was more than 100 years ago, during the reign of the old king Ayers Simba."

"Is this really the legendary phenomenon of stars holding the moon? This means that our elements make the kingdom will be a peaceful sight for years to come. ”

However, some expressed skepticism and dissatisfaction, such as the Elders of the Elemental Envoys.

After they whispered to each other, one of the oldest Whitebeard elementals stood up.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what your purpose is for letting the High Priest do astrology this time. How is it that we elders do not know? ”

The Elemental King looked calm, saying, "Since the events of more than 20 years ago, our Elemental Envoy has completely detached himself from humanity. This time, humans trespassed into the forest without authorization, but did not harm any of the creatures in the forest, and also had the intention of keeping Jennifer safe. For the first time, I didn't give the order to kill him, and that's why. ”

"For more than 20 years, someone has dared to break into this ancient forest. I was a little worried, so I asked Simon to do an astrology and it turned out to be a lucky result. Elder Gael, don't I, as the king of the elementals, even have that power? ”

Although the tone of the Elemental King was not very strong, it was clear from his words that he seemed to be genuinely angry.

The elemental elder named Gail waved his hand repeatedly, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. That's certainly not what we meant. It's just that for a human being, it's not worth using astrology. ”

The Elemental King said calmly: "The results of the astrology explain everything, and this astrology is worth it. ”

The elder smiled awkwardly, then saluted the Elemental Envoy King before sitting down.

The attitude of the Elemental King shocked all the elders and nobles present.

Because before that, the king who was honored by the elemental envoys had a high reputation among the elemental envoys. They were under the impression that His Majesty had always been calm and rarely angry.

When they saw that he was angry at this time, they were very surprised that he was actually angry because of a lowly human being.

After calming his emotions, the Elemental King asked an Elemental Envoy General not far away, "Is Lorriere back?" ”

The general stood up and replied, "Not yet, but I think it should be soon." Not so long ago, the guards received a smoke signal. Not far from Terraria. He should be back in half an hour. ”

The Elemental King frowned and looked at the sky above him. At this point, the sun had completely disappeared into the western sky. Although the sky is not dark, it is not far from night.

At this moment, footsteps could be heard outside the garden. Soon, three elementals in silver armor led the soldiers to the garden gate.

They stood outside the garden and gave a strange military salute to the Elemental King.

Elemental King Yuan Ben frowned and stretched: "Come in, Luo Lirui, you're late." I'll have to punish you a few drinks. ”

The elemental soldier smiled and nodded: "No need for Your Majesty to say, I am willing to accept the punishment!" ”

With that, the man led the two men into the garden, and found an empty seat to sit down.

At this point, Jennifer whispered to Ace, "That's Loriery." He is the most powerful warrior of our elemental kingdom. It was my father who sent him to check on the situation of several elemental towns in the forest. He was supposed to be back in Terraria yesterday as planned. I don't know what's going on on the road and it's made him a whole day late. ”

It turns out that in this ancient forest, in addition to Terraria, the capital of the Elemental Kingdom, there are dozens of small towns of various sizes.

These towns are spread in every corner of the ancient forest. Every other month, the Elemental Kingdom sends Elemental Soldiers to check on each of the large towns.

At the request of the Elemental King, each town will be equipped with fluorite street lamps to isolate the town from the forest to avoid strange disappearances.

"Luo Liri, did this inspection go well?" The Elemental King asked nonchalantly.

Luo Lieri drank half a glass of fruit wine and said, "Your Majesty, everything is going well. Just on the way back, we picked up more than 100 bags of wisdom fruit because we found a wisdom orchard. Because we are not in a hurry to go back, we can pick more. That's why we postponed the trip. ”

"What! Wisdom Fruit Forest? Didn't you say that the Wisdom Fruit Tree was destroyed by a demonic beast? How can there be an orchard of wisdom? ”

"Is this true? Oh, thank you Lursey, the god of the night! ”

Many elements make it impossible to help but praise it.

"What is the Fruit of Wisdom? Is it important? Ace didn't understand, so he asked Jennifer.

Jennifer smiled and said, "The Wisdom Fruit has a lot of moonlight power, and eating it can greatly enhance the vitality of our elemental envoys and prolong their lives." Especially when the elemental causes the soldiers to eat it, their strength will increase considerably. ”

Ace suddenly realized.

The Elemental King couldn't help but look at Simon, and they both saw the look of joy in each other's eyes. It seems that their astrological results this time are very accurate. Even the wisdom fruit that had disappeared for many years reappeared.

At this time, Ace suddenly felt that someone was staring at him. He turned his head and saw Goliath staring at him.

When she noticed Ace looking back, Goliath quickly looked away, but Ace clearly saw the flush on her face.

After two days in Terraria, Ace prepares to leave.

Jennifer was naturally reluctant to leave, but she was helpless, Ace still had important things to do and had to return to the Imperial Barracks, so he couldn't stay any longer.

After leaving Terraria, Ace headed east, intending to follow the same path back to Southern Cloud City.

But more than two hours after leaving Terraria, Ace was shocked to find that he seemed to be lost.

"Why do you always feel like you're spinning in the same place?" Ace paused, helplessly looking at the familiar scene ahead.

According to his perception, this is almost impossible to happen. However, he didn't know the direction. I seem to have repeated the same route four or five times.

"There must be something wrong with this." Ace frowned and muttered to himself.

At this time, a majestic voice like a god sounded: "Human, where did the dragon core around your neck come from?" ”

Ace felt dizzy. Feeling the pressure is far greater than the elements making it king.

After the sound stopped, Ace gradually regained consciousness. When he looked around, he realized that he was already in another world.

He saw a large mountain in front of him, and the top of the mountain was covered with clouds. When he stood at the foot of the mountain, there was no way to see the top of the mountain.

Ace always had a strange sense of familiarity, as if he had seen the same mountain somewhere.

He soon realized that the mountain was very similar to the one inhabited by ancient dragons.

He was very shocked, apparently still in the ancient forest, why did he suddenly appear here?

But listen to that voice again: "Human, you haven't answered my question yet!" ”

Ace suppressed the powerlessness in his heart and said, "Who are you?" ”

"Are you sure you want to see me for who I really are?"

Ace nodded firmly.

After that, he felt a strange air current completely envelop him, and his entire body was like a light leaf, blown into the sky by a strong wind.

Ace didn't like this feeling because it made him feel very weak and his body was completely out of his control.

It didn't take long for Ace to pass through the clouds and finally be brought to the top of the mountain by a strange air current.

Ace looked ahead and saw a strange green peak on the top of the mountain, with a strange shape.

Just when Ace was surprised, a huge eye suddenly appeared on the green "peak", emitting a terrifying light.

Ace was taken aback by the sudden scene, and unconsciously took a few steps back.

"Human, answer my question!"

At this time, Ace finally realizes that this is not a strange mountain, but a giant dragon. It was only because the dragon's head was so big that Ace mistook it for a mountain.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Ace felt his legs tremble, not because he was afraid of heights, but because the pressure of the dragon made him feel very uncomfortable.

Like the dragon soul facing the ancient dragon, it is a great fear and depression that comes from the depths of the soul.

However, Ace is facing a real dragon this time, not a remnant dragon soul.

Resisting his fear, he said with difficulty, "This is a gift from a friend of mine." ”

"Friends? Hmph, who will have a dragon core friend? "The voice is clearly not credible." So why is there a dormant dragon soul in the dragon core? ”

Ace didn't answer directly, but asked, "Do you have anything to do with the dragon?" ”

The dragon hesitated for a moment and said, "His name is Gaia, and he is my brother!" He is in charge of death and suffering in the world. And I, Ryls, am an ancient dragon who rules the life and hope of the world! ”

Ace was shocked when he heard the news. The dragon in front of him is the legendary Ryles!

Does the legendary Dragon Rils really exist?

Ace was in disbelief for a moment. He believed that many of the legends recorded in the royal texts were made up by later generations. He never thought that the legend of Long Rils was true!

According to legend, Ryls is an ancient dragon clan who is primarily responsible for managing the growth and reproduction of all life in the world. It is one of the most revered ancient dragons in the world.

Several small empires on the continent of Mandala even considered Ryls to be a god of faith and built a large number of sacrificial platforms for him. Of course, these small empires no longer exist. Some have been annexed by the New Delhi Empire, some have perished entirely.

Today, the most worshipped god on the continent of Mandala is the god of light. As the largest empire on the continent of Mandala, the New Delhi Empire has always held high praise for the god of light.

After thinking for a moment, Ace briefly recounted what had happened between him and the dragon.

After hearing this, Long Ruils said, "You said he gave you the dragon ball, so you took out the dragon ball for me to see." If it's true, I'll believe everything you say! ”

Ace took out the white dragon ball from his arm, and the dragon ball radiated a white glow on his palm.

The dragon ball slowly flew up on its own, heading towards the giant dragon's eye.

Ryls took a closer look at the Dragon Ball, and finally confirmed that it was Gaia's Dragon Ball.

Then, the Dragon Ball flew back into Ace's hands.

"Since Gaia chose to trust you, it means that you did help him. However, this is not enough. All you need to do now is get him to complete a complete rebirth! Ryles's voice was like thunder again.

At this point, Ace was already a little pale, as he had to endure not only the soul suppression brought by Ryls, but also the incredible sound of the dragon, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Fully reborn? What do you mean? Ace forced himself to stand still so as not to get dizzy.

"Thirteen years ago, you humans waged a war and killed Gaia mercilessly. Suddenly the world that was originally a balance of life and death becomes chaotic! Aren't you humans responsible for this? ”

"During those years, I witnessed the killing of Gaia. If I hadn't been confined to this sacred mountain, I wouldn't have let them kill Gaia, it was human greed and lust that killed him. ”

Ace could clearly sense that Ryls was really angry at this time. When his voice was raised, he felt the blood flow in his body be chaotic and his internal organs ached.

In the end, he couldn't stand it. He sat down directly, his face turned pale.

"Do you know what crime you've committed?" Ryles asked.

At this time, Ace couldn't say a word. He sat down, not making a sound.

He just felt that his heart was beating very fast and his whole body was getting very hot.

But when his spirit was unbearable, the sun and moon marks on his eyebrows suddenly flickered, and then a cool breath instantly flowed through his body.

Ace only felt that the hot and dry breath quickly disappeared, and his body quickly returned to its normal temperature. His heart rate slowed and his breathing stabilized. He felt much more comfortable.

"Uh, you little guy, do you still have the bloodline of the Elemental Envoy?" Ryles sounded a little taken aback.

Ace is much better now, and he says, "I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

Ryls snorted coldly, "At least one of your parents is an elemental envoy. Don't you know it yourself? ”

Ace was a little surprised. Elemental make? How is this possible! Father and Mother are both human, how can they be elementals?

In addition, the most standard appearance of the Elemental Makes is a long, flowing hair that belongs to a natural solid color, but Ace's own appearance is normal, and so is his father. Is Mom Sarina an Elemental Messenger?

However, if so, how could the father not tell himself? Alice also knew his mother, Sarina. Why did she hide it from herself?

When Ace was confused, he heard Ryles say, "Oh, I remember once discovering a beautiful elemental envoy here, and she asked me to turn her into a person." ”

"What!" Ace is surprised that the elements enable him to become human?

"Well, that little element makes it beautiful. Her name seems to be Sarina? ”

At this point, Ace was shocked. It turns out that my mother is really an elemental messenger! So, is it because my mother is an elemental envoy that I have a mark on my forehead?

However, as the embodiment of the god of the night, Golia's eyebrows are just a round of silver crescent moon. Why does he have the imprint of a sun and a moon? It left him completely confused.

So, why did mothers become human?

Ace couldn't help but ask, "What did my mother promise you in exchange?" ”

"She sacrificed half of her life for me to make her a person," Ryles said. Well, in retrospect, the breath of life made by the elements was really delicious, especially her soul as pure as water, which is rare in the world. Her soul was the purest and purest of all the souls I had ever seen. ”
