From beginning to end, Gru uses "we".

Because although he was once a Tacheng warrior, a proud protégé of Sipna, and a friend of Li Li, it could never change the fact that he was also a test subject.

These reformed people are destined to be the excluded outliers of this continent.

Seeing Gru's expression, Li Li fell into deep thought.

After saying goodbye to Gru, she thought seriously for a long time on the way back, and finally suddenly turned her head to look at Yao Tan.

"You say, how about taking them back to Heavenly Sword City?"

Yao Tan suddenly smiled: "I knew that you wouldn't sit idly by, I think this is a good idea, after all, there is a sword formation in Heavenly Sword City, you can not only protect them, but also supervise them, and the atmosphere in the village is excellent, I think that with the senior brother here, they can also find their own future path." ”

He briefly sorted out the key points, and Li Li felt that this idea was good.

She simply took out the communication jade slip immediately, summoned Uncle Wang to the past, and briefly described the situation of these people.

Soon, Uncle Wang replied.

To be precise, it was Uncle Wang's communication jade slip that appeared on two lines of words, and the vigorous and powerful font on it looked like it was from the hand of the senior brother-

"There are many people in the mountains, and the forces move in the sea."

The next line is much more sloppy, and you can vaguely get a glimpse of the writer's excitement.

"How many people there are, how big is Heavenly Sword City, now what Heavenly Sword City lacks the most is people, not to mention that these people are all capable people, maybe there is a shortage of talents in it! Don't miss it, you bring all these people back to Lao Tzu (crossed out)! ”

Li Li held the communication jade slip and couldn't help but smile slightly.

Really......

In terms of pattern and mind, it still depends on her eldest brother.

Li Li put away the communication jade slip and quickly turned around and ran towards Gru's side.

Gru looked at Li Li, who had gone and returned, in surprise, "What's the matter, you ......"

"Gru."

Li Li looked at him with burning eyes, and also at the others in the black robe in the block behind him who were cautiously looking over.

She exhaled imperceptibly, in a tone of seriousness that had never been more serious.

"Please, please help and consult with them."

"Let's just say that there is a nomadic village called Heavenly Sword Village in the Warcraft Mountain Range in Dongta City, which is not too big yet, but everyone in the village is very good, and they can accompany them to slowly take off this black robe, so that they can live in the sun in a dignified manner."

"Now, the people of that village are trying to build the village into a prosperous city, you ask them, would you like to go together?"

Gru froze in place.

……

Gru still needed to discuss with the other reformed people, and Li Li didn't press them, just said that if there were those who were willing to go, it would be good to gather under the flying boat on the day they left Nanta City.

In the next two days, Yao Tan began to frantically sweep all kinds of special medicinal materials in the pharmacy in Nanta City, thinking about how to help those who were transformed, studying the medicine that Xiren obtained, and exploring ways to help Ulysses restore his soul.

Ariel took the escort team to the Green Spire to drink tea several times, judging from the smug smile that the little duke couldn't hide from the corner of his mouth, at least the half-orc force he represented had reached a certain cooperation with Nanta City, as for the details, Li Li was not clear.

Collins was busy coaxing his brother to be happy, and Xiren was busy fooling the clansmen to apply for the Heavenly Sword Sect...... Everyone is busy.

Only Li Li rarely touched the fish for two days, lying motionless in the tree house, and even the Kurong Sword was miserably disgraced, and he was not touched.

It wasn't until early three days later in the morning that Elder Ferumman personally knocked on the door of the treehouse.

Outside the wooden house, a thin layer of mist shrouded the entire Nanta City, but unlike the oppression and threat in the Misty Forest, the fragrance of flowers and fruits and the singing of insects and birds in the fog were relaxing and pleasant.

Li Li went out to greet the elders, and she caught a sharp glimpse of Ferumman's charred white beard trimmed off.

"Let's go, it's time to take you to claim the prize."

As soon as he heard this, Ariel's eyes lit up, and the tail behind him flicked out of control, dangling excitedly.

"Control yourself...... Don't be so ashamed. Xiren reminded angrily.

The little duke was too lazy to bother with him, and did not hide his pleasure.

He went to Nanta City with all the hard work to get the [Life Spring] rewarded for the first place, and now he was about to get it, and he was inevitably excited.

Ariel doesn't want to be a mad lion with a sick brain every time he becomes a beast.

The people of the Heavenly Sword Sect followed behind Feruman and walked towards the depths of Nanta City.

Along the way, countless elves hugged Feruman and Li Li and the others, and Feruman smiled gently and bowed his head.

The bustling neighborhood of Nanta City gradually became quieter, and the originally flat road began to become steep, but not up, but inclined down.

Feruman waved his wand continuously, and a path of vines spawned under the feet of Li Li.

As the morning mist was dispelled by the sun, gradually, the huge valley in front of us also appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

In the valley, the tranquil lake is occasionally swept by the breeze, and the sun shines brightly, and the clear water of the lake is like a piece of blue crystal, embedded in the valley.

In the middle of the lake is an island.

On the island, there is a dense and towering golden tree like a forest, and its leaves are still covered with morning dew, and when the wind blows, the leaves collide together to make a melodious sound like wind chimes, as if countless elves are singing softly.

Is that......

"The Tree of Life......

Li Li quietly stared at the ancient and beautiful golden giant tree in front of him, admiring its grandeur and beauty.

"Yes."

In front of him, Feruman waved his wand, and in an instant, the vines under everyone's feet began to spread forward, creating a dark green pontoon bridge on the turquoise lake.

Li Li looked down, and when he stepped on the vine pontoon, there were also a little ripples on the water surface, which was very elegant.

After stepping on the island in the middle of the lake, Li Li was suddenly stunned.

She seemed to sense a familiar aura in the tree of life.

That aura had also appeared before entering the Misty Forest, and because it was the strongest power that Li Li had sensed since he came to the Magic Realm, he remembered it very clearly.

This is the breath that belongs to the Elven Queen.

Feruman looked up at the Tree of Life, which glittered in the sunlight, sprouting countless tiny golden buds, the seeds of the elves, which would give birth to the elves when they grew up.

Between those buds, a powerful and gentle force is slowly nourishing them.

Feruman bowed very respectfully to the Tree of Life.

"Your Royal Highness, I've brought this group of children to collect the prize."

The leaves of the Tree of Life shook a few times, as if someone was responding to something.

In the distance, Mu Qian, dressed in a long white dress, slowly walked out from behind the tree, holding a bottle of clear spring water in her arms, as if she was watering the tree of life.

"Elder Ferumman, Her Majesty says that it is ready for our distinguished guests." Mu Qian's gentle voice conveys the voice of the Tree of Life.

Everyone in the Heavenly Sword Sect was already stunned.

This posture ......

Could it be that the Elven Queen is the Tree of Life?!

As if to understand the confusion in their eyes, Feruman shook his head helplessly and explained, "It's not what you think. ”

"All life has an end, even the long-lived elves...... Her Majesty Queen Elune has been an ancient being who has witnessed the millennia of elven history, so it is time for her to return to the Tree of Life. ”

"Return to the Tree of Life?" Li Li was stunned.

"That's right, no one in the elves has ever gone to the realm of the gods, not because we are not talented, but because the belief of the elves is the tree of life, which gives us life and all kinds of talents...... After death, the elves will also choose to turn into a golden leaf of the Tree of Life, feeding back their energy to the Tree of Life, so that it can continue to nourish the newborn elves. ”

Feruman said calmly: "I think it is also because the necromancers speculated on the limit period for His Majesty Elune's return to the Tree of Life, so they deliberately chose to attack Nanta City at this time. ”

He didn't mean to shy away from these children, not even Ariel.

Because this matter cannot be hidden, Nanta City is in great trouble, but Queen Elune has never shown up, and it is easy for those who know something about the customs of the elves to guess the fact that the queen is no longer there.

Judging from Ariel's unsurprised expression, the little duke probably guessed this earlier.

Mu Qian slowly poured the clear spring water from the crystal bottle down the trunk of the tree, and said softly: "All the elves who were seriously injured in the Battle of Nanta City were sent back to the Tree of Life, and Her Majesty Elune healed them with her power, and although she could not leave the island in the middle of the lake, she was still guarding the children of the Tree of Life. ”

Yao Tan hesitated for a moment and looked at Mu Qian: "Those people on the island ......"

Mu Qian understood that Yao Tan was talking about those who had been transformed, and she shook her head: "It's not that the elf clan has abandoned them, but that they have been transformed, and the elf bloodline in their bodies has also been polluted by the demonic bloodline, which is equivalent to being forcibly changed by the necromancers, and the tree of life can't help them." ”

After a pause, Mu Qian looked at the Heavenly Sword Sect and a few people, and finally his gaze fell on Li Li.

She whispered, "Elder Feruman and I have heard about your intention to take them in...... I can't express my inner gratitude. ”

"Elves are too proud of a race, and this pride allows us to persevere, leaving a brilliant elven civilization on the continent with a sparse population, but this pride also makes it difficult for the elven people to accept that they are no longer pure. It's a very sad thing, and Elder Ferumman and I have thought about slowly changing all of this, but it will take a long time, so long that I can't guarantee that these reformed people will be able to wait until that day comes. ”

"You once saved me, and the Heavenly Sword Sect also helped save Nanta City. If you can really provide a pure land for these unfortunate wandering elven people to spend the rest of their lives, then I would like to swear by the tree of life, the elven clan will be the most loyal ally of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and we will unconditionally support any of your resolutions in the future, and you will also enjoy the right to be an elder of the green spire, and have the qualification to mobilize the elven warriors. ”

Mu Qian looked at Li Li, and gave the sincerity of the elf clan's gratitude very seriously.

Li Li also looked at Mu Qian, and she slowly spoke.

"Then I promise the name of the Heavenly Sword Sect......

These elven people will be given all the normal rights and interests of the citizens in the Heavenly Sword City, they will be protected by the Heavenly Sword Sect, they will continue to maintain the pride of the elves and continue to practice the nobility and integrity of the elves, and their souls will continue to radiate golden light when they return to the Tree of Life. ”

Mu Qian and Feruman glanced at each other, and they both saw an unconcealed surprise and relief in each other's eyes.

"Thank you." Mu Qian stepped forward, opened her hand and gently hugged Li Li.

Li Li didn't dodge, nor did he push away, so he could only stand stiffly in place.

She was still strong just now, but now she instantly turned into a stone sculpture and was motionless.

Smelling the cold aroma of plants and trees on Mu Qian's body, a faint flush began to appear on Li Li's face......

Fortunately, after Mu Qian gave a polite shallow hug, she let go of her hand and retreated away.

"If I have the chance, I also want to go and see the Heavenly Sword City you said, maybe we can become good friends in the future."

Mu Qian whispered to Li Li, who had always been cold and serious before, rarely showed a girl's yearning smile: "I heard that you carried me out of the prison, I am very tall, so it should be very hard all the way, I have always wanted to thank you." ”

Li Li was stunned and shook his head: "It's not hard, I carried you back, it's very effortless." ”

Mu Qian: 6

Li Li's sword cultivation style replied straightforwardly, which made Mu Qian smile helplessly, and she couldn't continue to talk to Li Li.
