Ace nodded, "If you can, the sooner the better."

And just like that, Simon brought Ace there.

When Ace walked into the Great Elder's residence, Ace was surprised because the wooden house looked ordinary, even a little cramped.

Logically, as the Great Elder of the Elemental Envoy Family, his status was naturally very prominent and he should live in a more luxurious place.

But Simon whispered, "Ace, I have something to warn you of. The old man was very eccentric and moody. You can't make him angry, try to be patient! You know what?"

Before Ace could respond, there was a cold buzz, "You think I'm old, so my ears can't hear, do you?"

Simon was taken aback, then laughed awkwardly, "Great Elder, Ace has something to ask you. I brought it to you, I'll go first!"

After that, Simon quickly walked away as if he had oil on the soles of his feet.

Ace never thought about why Simon, who was always serious and calm, looked so embarrassed and scared.

Just as Ace was standing there and didn't react, a cold voice came from inside: "What? Are you so arrogant? Want me to go out and meet you? The door didn't close. Come in yourself."

Ace woke up suddenly, and then pushed open the wooden door with some fear.

As soon as Ace opened the door, he immediately felt a strong smell of earth rushing to his face.

The light outside the house was bright, but the inside was unusually dark, which made it difficult for Ace to adapt in a short period of time.

However, in a corner not far away, a ray of sunlight slanted down, right on the back of the Elemental Elder.

"Close the door!" Ace seemed to be being blamed for not closing the door in time, and there was an impatient tone in his voice.

Ace listened, and quickly closed the wooden door.

After gradually adapting to the extreme darkness of the house, Ace was able to fully see the scene around him. In addition, Ace's night vision is very strong, so he can clearly see all objects in the house.

He could only see the slightly cramped wooden hut piled high with all sorts of bottles and jars, but most of them were flower pots.

Some plants are hung on wooden poles, while others are placed in corners. The utensils used to carry various plants are also very different.

Some are clay pots, some are water bottles, and some are glassware.

Just as Ace was about to take a few steps forward, the little elemental envoy turned his back to him and shouted in a low voice, "Don't move around, don't touch everything here! Including what's under your feet."

Through his words, Ace noticed a small moss-like plant growing on the ground not far in front of him.

If it weren't for his warning, maybe Ace wouldn't have cared about them at all. He would only think that they were ordinary mosses that grew out of darkness and dampness.

"Every plant here has completely different attributes, so they need to grow in a completely different environment! If you accidentally step on it, I won't be polite to you!" The older elemental envoy still had his back to Ace, busy with his own business.

Ace stopped where he was, then stood where he was, not daring to take any action.

As the elemental made the elder finish what he was doing, he slowly turned around and looked at Ace indifferently.

As for the older Kia, Ace actually saw him once at the last Elemental Envoy Banquet. But there was no dialogue between them.

"Are you looking for me?" Kia, the elder of the elemental envoys, asked expressionlessly.

Ace nodded, "I came here this time to enter the Moonlight Lake, but the Elemental Envoy King said that I need to consult the elders, so I came to you."

"Are you going to the Sacred Lake?" Chia was confused, but he quickly said coldly, "Then you can go back, because I will never agree to let humans approach the Holy Lake!"

Ace didn't rush to defend himself, but asked, "Are you really Shalina's father?"

Ace could clearly see that after hearing Ace's words, Old Chia was obviously stunned. After a long time, the old man said, "No!"

Ace said "oh" and prepared to turn away.

Just as Ace was about to push the door out, Kia suddenly stopped him and said, "Stop!"

Ace lowered his hands and pushed the door open, turning to look at the older elemental.

Chia asked calmly, "How do you know Sarina?" What is your relationship with her?"

Ace couldn't see any expression on his face, and calmly replied, "She's my mother."

At this time, Chia's body was stunned again. Ace could even feel Chia's body trembling slightly.

After a long time, Chia took a long breath and asked, "You said that Sarina was your mother, how is she now?"

Ace didn't hide anything, and directly said, "She passed away more than ten years ago."

This time, Kia was completely shocked. His eyes were filled with shock, sadness, and regret. All sorts of emotions intertwined and he couldn't accept this fact at all.

Ace wonders why Kia doesn't ask about his mother Serina's death anymore. However, Ace didn't have time to think. With his strong night vision and extremely faint light, Ace sees Chia.

Kia just stared at Ace and didn't speak for a long time.

He stared at Ace intently, feeling uncomfortable, as if he had been stabbed in the body by a sharp knife.

Just when Ace was at a loss, Chia snorted coldly and said, "Except for a pair of eyes, you don't look like her, it's a little different from her appearance, it looks like your father looks ordinary!"

Ace's tongue was knotted for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

Everyone in the New Delhi Empire knows that his father was once recognized as a handsome and dashing handsome man with a large number of suitors, but in his mouth, his father seems to have become a so-called crooked melon and cracked date.

Chia's eyes at this point have changed a bit compared to when they started.

At first, Ace could see indifference, contempt, and contempt in his eyes, and seemed to ignore Ace at all.

But now, to Kia's opinion, he seems to be a little disgusted, thinking that Ace's appearance humiliates their elemental envoys.

"Your mother is at least an elemental envoy, but your appearance has not inherited her virtues at all, how ugly!" The more Kia looked at Ace, the more he disliked him.

The world knows that the elements make a great deal of attention to appearance. The most important parts of the elements should be the color of the skin, the depth of the eyes, and the vividness of the hair.

The whiter the skin, the brighter the eyes, the brighter the hair, and the more prominent the appearance.

Therefore, in the eyes of all the elemental angels, Princess Goliath is the most beautiful elemental angel.

However, looking at Ace again, apart from a pair of bright eyes, his skin may be okay among humans, but compared to the Elemental Envoy, it can be said that he is "Coal", and his hair is completely devoid of the Elemental Envoy's characteristic vividness.

No wonder Chia doesn't like him.

"You barely have any of the characteristics of the elementals! What a disappointment!" Chia shook her head helplessly.

Ace hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, there seems to be a mark in the shape of a sun and moon in the middle of my eyebrows. The Elemental Emissaries worship the night god Lulcie, am I a trait of the Elementals?"

As soon as Ace spoke, he felt a fierce and serious face that almost touched his face.

"What are you talking about? Do you have a sun and moon mark in the middle of your eyebrows? How is this possible?" Chia's tone was full of suspicion.

Because in the history of the Elemental Family, the Mark of the Night God only appears three times.

The first person to bear the mark of the god of the night was the first guardian of the god of the night in the family of the ancient elemental envoys; Then, two thousand years later, a second elemental angel with the mark of the god of the night appeared, and she later became the guardian of the god of the night.

As for the latest one, it is Golia, the younger sister of the princess who ennobles the kingdom of the elements. She is the 1456th Guardian of the Night God.

Of course, there is another one that only Chia knows, and no one else knows.

Historically, when the first two guardians of the Night God were still alive, the Elemental Messengers were at their peak.

Now, as a princess with the sigil of the god of the night, Golia is considered a treasure by the elementals, who call her the embodiment of the god of the night, Lulcie.

Ace doesn't seem to believe Chia at first. He immediately thought about it. The sun and moon marks on his forehead suddenly appeared, and the two marks shone brightly.

Looking at the sun and moon mark on Ace's forehead, Chia's lips began to tremble desperately, and the arm holding Ace's shoulder began to tremble constantly.

"How is this possible?" Chia's eyes were wide open and her face stiffened. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Sun and Moon? This is the mark of the sun and the moon! Impossible!" At this point, Kia seemed to be crazy.

Ace was taken aback by Kia's reaction so excitedly, and for a moment he froze in place, a little overwhelmed.

Kia suddenly grabbed Ace and asked, "Tell me, who knows your sun and moon sigil except you and me?"

Ace shook his head, but his face was a little ugly, because at this time, Chia was really too excited, and he grabbed too hard, which made Ace feel pain.

Seeing Ace shake his head, Chia took a long breath. His nervous and agitated expression relaxed almost instantly.

At the same time, his strong arm also freed Ace.

"It's okay!" But Kia soon said to Ace in a serious manner, "I'll tell you! Don't tell anyone, and don't let others see your sun and moon markings. No one can! Including Jennifer, do you understand?"

Although Ace didn't quite understand what Chia meant, seeing his serious and nervous expression, Ace nodded subconsciously.

Kia looked Ace up and down again, then fell into deep thought.

Ace really didn't understand why the sun and moon mark on his forehead made Kia react so violently.

After a long time, Chia slowly regained her health, turned to Ace, and asked, "What do you want to do in the Sacred Lake?"

Ace didn't want to hide anything, so he said honestly, "I'm looking for some clues about Hades."

"Hades, Hades? The most powerful human being in the history of mankind. What does he have to do with the sacred lake of our elementals?" Kia asked.

Ace handed the map to Chia, "It's this map that brought me here."

Chia took the map and saw the terrain, forests, and mountains on the map. He soon discovers that the place marked on the map is indeed Moonlight Lake, an ancient forest.

Kia returned the map to Ace, "Did you know that there are terrible creatures in the sacred lake?"

Ace nodded, "Simon told me before, but I still want to go in and have a look."

"Don't you want to live?" Chia's eyes became very stern, but he was not hostile, more like the advice and concern of the elders for the younger generation.

Ace shook his head and said, "I'll be fine. If I encounter danger, I will run away as fast as I can. If necessary, I would just give up and leave."

"Hmph, naïve, you don't know how terrible the creatures in the sacred lake are! As far as I know, there have indeed been some high-level demonic beasts that have broken into the Holy Lake in recent years, but none of them have surfaced in the end!"

"Many demonic beasts have a certain amount of intelligence, so they know that the water in the sacred lake can heal wounds, and sometimes, these high-level demonic beasts will inevitably get injured during the battle, and when they are seriously injured, they will dive into the sacred lake and use the lake water to heal their wounds."

"It's just that they didn't seem to feel the danger in the lake, and eventually died in the lake."

After listening to Chia's story, Ace became even more curious about Moonlight Lake.

In general, the level of Warcraft is very clear, and there is also level suppression between different Warcraft.

Logically, those high-level magical beasts should have more powerful soul perception abilities. When they are near Moonlight Lake, they will feel the powerful souls of higher-level demonic beasts.

However, those demonic beasts that seek their own death still choose to approach Moonlight Lake.

Well, there are only two possibilities.

First of all, the monsters in the lake deliberately hide their aura, and even their own soul power can be concealed. Then I'm afraid that the power of these demonic beasts will at least reach the catastrophic level!

Second, the monsters in the lake are not magical beasts at all, so there is no so-called soul suppression.

For these two possibilities, Ace prefers the first one.

Although the catastrophic beast was terrifying, Ace knew that if he was really in danger, he could still escape.

With his current strength as a magister and his status as a dark mage, as long as he doesn't fight and runs away, there will be no danger.

What is scary is that the mysterious existence in the lake is not a magical beast at all! If it wasn't Warcraft, what would it be?

The unknown is often the scariest.

"Don't blame me for not warning you! Although the water of Moonlight Lake heals wounds and has always been called the Holy Lake by us, the monsters inside are really powerful. You can't deal with him." Chia frowned.

Ace was delighted. "Are you saying you agreed to let me into the Sacred Lake?"

Chia snorted coldly, "Don't be too happy, even if I agree, the other elders may not agree!"

Ace didn't have much to worry about this, as he had heard Simon say before coming to Chia that most elders would listen to Chia's advice.

Even if there are a few who like to disagree with the Great Elder, they can only obey the will of the majority with the consent of the majority of the elders.

Therefore, just convincing Chia is basically convincing the Council of Elders to agree to enter the Sacred Lake.

Now it seems that there should be no problem with this request. After all, Chia had already agreed.

Ace performed an elemental ritual to Chia: "Thank you very much, Grand Elder!"

But Kia snorted coldly, "Little one, according to you humans, you should call me Grandpa!"

Ace rubbed his head awkwardly, wondering if he should change his words.

To avoid an awkward atmosphere between them, Ace asked, "Can you tell me something about my mother?" I wonder why she left the ancient forest?"

When Kia hears Ace mention his only daughter, his eyes involuntarily darken.

Now, he gradually regards Ace as his junior, acquiescing to Ace's identity, but unwilling to admit it.

Therefore, in front of Ace, Kia did not have to continue to hide his emotions.

"Speaking of your mother, I'm responsible for her sudden departure from the ancient forest!" When Chia talks about it, there is regret in his eyes.

"At that time, if I hadn't forced her to become the guardian of the night god, she wouldn't have said goodbye!"

"Guardian of the Night God?" Ace was a little confused. He doesn't understand why his mother was forced to become Kia's "Guardian of the Night God".

Chia continued, "In fact, your mother also has the mark of the god of night on her forehead."

"What!" Ace was shocked. He never thought his mother also had the mark of the god of the night on her forehead? Why did my father never mention this to me?

"Your mother has the mark of the god of the night, but she's kept it a secret from me." Chia said sullenly.

"Hidden? Why is she hiding you?" Ace was confused.

Chia replied, "Because she knows that the Elemental Angel with the Mark of the Night God will be chosen as the guardian of the Night God. Your mother doesn't want to be the guardian of the night god at all."

"She wants to go out and see, not to live in the ancient forest for the rest of her life, she longs for freedom, and if she becomes the guardian of the night god, she can't get out of the ancient forest."

"Therefore, she has loved freedom since she was a child, and after realizing her uniqueness, she always deliberately hides from others that she has the mark of the god of the night."

"Her mother died at a very young age, she died of illness, so I spoiled her from a young age and didn't let her be hurt at all, and it was because of my indulgence that she became more and more unruly and more difficult to control."

When Chia said this, he couldn't help but sigh, "Later, your mother first thought of leaving Gulin, but I flatly refused, however, the more I objected, the more she wanted to leave."

"A lot of things are like that. Just like our elements make respect for the forces of nature

amount, defying magic. But your mother thinks your human magic is amazing and wants to study it seriously. Of course, I refused her request."

Kia's tone grew lower, "Later, as she grew older, her determination to leave Gulin became more and more determined, and at the same time, there were more and more conflicts between me and her."

"There are more contradictions, and naturally there will be more quarrels! Finally, during a quarrel, she was so emotional that she couldn't control it well, and the mark of the night god suddenly appeared on her forehead."

"She was completely flustered, her eyes were frightened, and she didn't know what to do, but I was happy because her daughter had the legendary Mark of the Night God, which means that our family will have a Night God Guardian."

"Imagine how glorious it would be if you had a Guardian of the Night God in your home with the Mark of the Night God!"

Chia sighed again, "But your mother refused to be the guardian of the night god. To her, freedom seemed to mean everything, and no one could take her away from it. Finally, one day, she quietly left the ancient forest and was never heard from again. I didn't have time to advertise that she had the mark of the god of the night."

"I think she must know that once word spreads that she has the Mark of the Night God, she'll never get a chance to leave the ancient forest."

"I haven't seen her since. To this day, you tell me she's dead." Speaking about this, Kia's eyes filled with tears.

Ace had no idea that his mother would make such a decision.

Chia calmed her emotions and said, "As an elemental envoy, Sharina should also be treated unfairly when facing humans."

At this point, Kia felt very uncomfortable thinking about the possible discrimination his daughter would receive. He didn't know that Shalina was well prepared before leaving for the New Delhi Empire.

Ace hesitated for a moment, but told Chia truthfully, "My mother found the ancient dragon god Ryls and traded half of her lifespan for the appearance of a human."

"What!" Kia's face was shaken, and her body trembled.

The lifespan of the elemental makes is much longer than that of humans. If humans can live to be 90 years old, then the elemental messengers can live to be more than two hundred years old.

She sacrificed half of her life in exchange for the appearance of an ordinary person. Kia simply couldn't accept such a deal.

However, from this incident, it can be seen how much Sharina does not want to be bound by fate. She would rather give up half her life to gain the freedom she had always desired.

How much courage and conviction does it take for an element to make? Suffice it to see how determined Sharina was at that time.

But now, Sharina passed away more than a decade ago. At least in the last stages of her life, she was given the freedom she had been seeking, which was also considered complete.

For years, Kia had been pretending that nothing had happened, as if he had never had a daughter like this. But now that he really calmed down and recalled, Chia was still very uncomfortable.

"Although I don't have a strong impression of my mother, I have heard a lot of stories about her from others. I'm proud of her, I'm proud to be her son." Ace said in a very sincere tone.

In fact, Ace has always believed that his mother was great. Not only does she not despise humans in the slightest, but she also marries and has children with them. The extent to which she studied the mysteries of magic can also be seen in the mystical codex.

In the end, even if she died, she was killed to protect a group of innocent dark magicians.

"Alas!" Chia sighed. "She's gone, and there's no point in saying that."

After that, he looked at Ace again and said, "When are you going to return to the New Delhi Empire after you finish the Moonlight Lake affair?"

Ace shook his head and said, "No, my father and I went to the Dwarven Kingdom, intending to settle there temporarily."

Kia looked at Ace blankly.

Ace gave a brief account of the situation in the New Delhi Empire.

"What? You have destroyed the capital of the New Delhi Empire?" Chia looked shocked.

Over the years, the New Delhi Empire had severed all ties with Terraria, so Kia still didn't know what had happened in the Kingdom of New Delhi a few months earlier

Huge changes.
