"What do you mean?" For a moment, there was only a terrifying silence left in the room, Fang Qiubai slowly looked at the elf beside him and asked in a deep voice. Illya, who was originally leaning down, also slowly raised her head and looked at her puzzled.

"He's been like this for fifteen years!" Helena couldn't hold back the sadness in her heart and burst into tears.

"Vegetative person?" Fang Qiubai was startled, walked to Victor's side, stretched out his hand and pressed on the other party's body, his body temperature was normal, his skin and muscles were so elastic, and his calm breathing couldn't tell that this was a person who hadn't woken up for fifteen years.

Looking at Illya, who was almost stupid beside him, Fang Qiubai gently hugged her in his arms, looked at Helena, who was crying silently on the side, and asked, "What happened at that time? Also, what is your relationship with him, should you tell it?"

Then he lowered his head and comforted Illya, who couldn't stop sliding down tears but didn't make any sound: "Xiaoya, don't be sad, let's figure out something together." ”

Helena bit her lower lip hard, held back the sadness in her heart, and slowly recounted what happened 15 years ago.

About 17 years ago, the Elven Queen received news that a slave trader had secretly captured an elf and was ready to sell it. Enraged, she sent Helena and several level 7 elves to chase down the group.

Unexpectedly, when the elves arrived there, the slave traders were fighting with a bald man, and the dust was flying.

Helena, who was originally hiding in the shadows and was ready to wait for the other party to lose before making a move, was surprised to find that the bald man actually made a move to stop these people from selling elves.

The bald man was Victor, and his strength had already broken through level 5 and approached level 6 at that time, but in the face of several level 4 or 5 slave traders, things were still gradually defeated, and danger was everywhere, but even so, he was still not afraid to fight with the other party, even if he was scarred on his body by the opponent with weapons from time to time.

Of course, the battle ended in just a few minutes after Helena and other elves intervened.

Out of gratitude, Helena asked for the bald man's name and identity, making her first human friend.

In the following time, Victor always deliberately chose to approach the mission of the Firefly Forest, and every time he came here, he would always chat with Helena, relax, everything was like in a storybook, the two hearts of a man and an elf were so close together, even if this man once had a wife and a small daughter. Even the Elven Queen acquiesced in the relationship between the two and allowed Victor to enter the depths of the Firefly Forest, which is the range of the Elven Tree of Life.

However, because Victor still has his own mercenary group and daughter in Silver Mountain City, the two can't see each other twice a year, so Victor has always had an idea that when his deputy head and others can be on their own, he will completely retire to the Firefly Forest to spend the rest of his life with Helena. He had never disclosed all this to the people of the mercenary group, because he wanted to wait until the day when he was completely settled to announce it to everyone, so even Bruce didn't know about it.

The accident happened 15 years ago, when Victor took a mission to the Firefly Forest to meet Helena, who he hadn't seen for a long time, and met the orc tribe who fled in a hurry, and from the mouths of those people, he knew about the invasion of the ghost clan, and hurried to Helena's location despite the reminders and obstacles of those orcs.

"And then?" Hearing this, Fang Qiubai also knew that the main event of the Dao was coming, and hurriedly asked.

He also subconsciously glanced at Illya in his arms, and he didn't know how Illya would react to the sudden addition of such a young stepmother.

Fortunately, Illya didn't seem to think of this yet, and just looked at Helena with a nervous face, waiting for her to continue.

"At that time, there were many level 7 or even level 8 powerhouses in our elf clan who ran out of vitality and returned to the tree of life, and Victor, a level 6 warrior, actually broke through the obstacles of countless ghost clans with a sword and a shield and appeared in front of me, do you know how surprised we were at that time?" Helena silently wiped the tears from her face and tried to calm herself down.

"The battle was relatively smooth, but there was a problem when I was reinforcing the seal at the very end, many strong people were not there at that time, only the queen and the two elders, and they were responsible for the reinforcement of this seal, but I don't know when there was a ghost clan hidden next to Lu Dao, and the strength actually reached level 8, it pounced while we were reinforcing the seal, and his target was the weakest of the four, I!" took a deep breath, and a trace of resentment flashed in Helena's eyes.

"At that time, Victor was the only one, he desperately went up, and even at that moment, his strength actually climbed to level 7 crazily, and he delayed the ghost clan until we strengthened the seal. ”

After the four powerhouses of the elf clan strengthened the seal, the ghost clan, who was still delayed by Viktor even though he had left countless scars on his body, lost the source of his strength and was easily shattered by the elf queen and others who had their hands free.

Looking at Helena, who was anxious and distressed, rushed to his side and supported him with his smaller body, Victor grinned and smiled, "You're not hurt, are you?"

"No, no injuries! Don't speak, someone will treat you soon!" Helena looked at Victor, who was covered in blood but still cared about herself, gritted her teeth and forced herself to keep from crying, and kept nodding her head.

"Ah, it's good that you're not hurt! suddenly feel so tired!" Victor smiled reassuringly, and his body seemed to have lost its support, and he fell limply.

Seeing Victor fall, Helena was really frightened, but fortunately, the elven queen reminded her: "Don't be nervous, it's just that you fainted." ”

What neither Helena nor the Elf Queen expected at that time was that Victor had indeed just fainted, but 15 years had passed, and there was still no sign of waking up.

"For the past 15 years, he's been sleeping here, motionless. Looking at the sleeping Victor in front of her, Helena's eyes were full of tenderness.

"I haven't exercised for 15 years, why does he still look so normal?" Fang Qiubai knew that if a person does not exercise for a long time, all kinds of symptoms such as muscle atrophy and skin ulceration will appear, but Victor in front of him seems to be taking a nap, without any abnormality.

"Because it can be said that it was Victor who saved everyone in the end, the queen authorized me to take a drop of the Tree of Life Essence every month for him to take, if it weren't for that, I'm afraid he would be long gone. Sitting down gently, Helena looked at the sleeping Victor with soft eyes, and affectionately brushed her hand over the other's somewhat rough face.

At that moment, Illya and Fang Qiubai saw a dazzling light from this elf, which was the embodiment of love to the extreme.

If Illya was still worried about it just now, she was a little uncomfortable that she was likely to have an extra mother out of thin air, but after listening to Helena's story and seeing the affectionate appearance of the other party, those strange feelings had completely disappeared, looking at Helena in front of her, who seemed to be not much older than herself, Illya asked softly: "Don't the elves know why their father will fall asleep?"

"In fact, over the years, not only elves, but even friends of the orc clan have also checked his state, but they all come to the same conclusion, that is, when facing the ghost clan at the end of the year, Victor completely burned his life force in exchange for the rise in strength in that short period of time, and now he only has an empty shell, if it weren't for the essence of the tree of life to replenish his consumption" Helena sighed deeply, looking at Illya, the daughter of the man she loved, explained.

"Then how about feeding him a few more drops of that essence?" Fang Qiubai suddenly interjected and asked.

"Only one drop at a time, if two drops, the vitality contained in the essence of the Tree of Life is too abundant, and it will cause him to explode and die. Looking at Victor quietly, Helena explained softly.

"Save my father!" Looking up at Fang Qiubai, Illya unexpectedly looked strong, holding back tears.

"By the way, if it were you, you would definitely be able to do it!Please find a way to wake him up!" Hearing Illya's words, Helena also reacted instantly, grabbed Fang Qiubai's hand, and said anxiously.

Suddenly attacked by this character elf, who was likely to become his mother-in-law, Fang Qiubai instantly pressed down the thought that had just arisen, and promised in a loud voice: "Don't worry!

The two women in front of him can't be offended, although Fang Qiubai has no good way, but he can only accept it first.

"By the way, you wait a minute, I'll contact Mr. Zhuge to take a look!" Fang Qiubai suddenly had an idea, made a silent gesture to the two of them, and stepped aside.

"I'm going to contact Zhuge Liang. Fang Qiubai gestured in his mind.

"Did you see anything in Yu Lu?" soon received Zhuge Liang's words.

"Mr. Zhuge , here's the thing" Fang Qiubai also ignored the consumption and explained the matter of Victor in detail.

"Is this so? There are many things that can deal with this situation, such as the Seven Star Lamp, Hua Tuo Plaster, Heavenly Master Fu Water, and Pan Tao all have the effect of resurrecting the dead. Zhuge Liang didn't take it as a question at all, and replied very casually.

"But I don't have anything!" Fang Qiubai was speechless, and his newly relaxed heart tightened again.

"Hmm, this is easy to do!" Zhuge Liang's answer once again made Fang Qiubai look happy again.
