Chapter 0892 - Elven Secret

It didn't matter if the two Legendary Warriors had come out of that holy step, the corners of their clothes had already been dyed with a layer of light blue, and the crystal frost flowers were looming.
"I'm sorry, the mount that I just took in is a little hard to control. Where you are offended, you can hope that there will be a lot of seas! Li Xun on the back of the dragon had a wicked smile on his face, although he said politely, but the action of putting away the corpse of the half-worm in private was not ambiguous at all.
As soon as the three human powerhouses stared, the frost dragon Terrence crouching on the insect corpse opened his mouth slightly, and under the biting cold current, he actually froze everything under his body in the blue ice in an instant. The Blood Demon and Fecanth on the dragon's back kept sneering, staring at the three of them with murderous eyes.
One Saint Rank, One Legend!
The three human powerhouses stared at each other, and the idea of teaching each other a lesson disappeared.
If there is no legend around the other party, then the conflict will inevitably be one-sided. In this way, the light and heavy fights are all in the control of their own side. But there are legends around the other party, so the outcome of the conflict is difficult to predict.
It's not appropriate to fight in the land of the elves. Moreover, the three powerhouses do not belong to the same force, so it is difficult to say whether they can work together if they really want to fight. Therefore, the three human powerhouses sneered, and without saying a word, they turned their heads and ran away.
After scaring off the opponent, Li Xun and the Blood Demon quickly gathered up a few insect corpses that had already been spotted, and then turned around and returned to the embassy with a smug attitude. In this process, Li Xun could feel that the jade dragon flying high in the sky had been staring at him.
Yes! It's on yourself, not at the frost dragon beneath your feet.
That kind of meaningful gaze made Li Xun a little restless, and he always felt that the other party seemed to see through something!
Emerald Dragon? Looks like I'm going to have to check them up when I get back!
With this uneasiness, Li Xun plunged headlong into the embassy and never took the lead again.
And after Li Xun disappeared, the jade dragon also slapped its huge dragon wings, turned around and swayed upward, and rushed straight into the tallest ancient tree in the center of Green Shade City. This is an ancient tree of life that is more than 9,000 years old, and if it weren't for its existence, Green Shade City would not have become a high elf city after the elves.
The emerald dragon circled through a green shade, through countless thick tree paths that could accommodate two four-wheeled carriages in parallel, and also through countless delicate and elegant elven huts. Finally, at the top of the ancient tree, nearly 300 meters above the ground, a sacred and elegant natural temple appeared in front of it.
And Idril, the high priest of the temple, was waiting silently in front of the temple.
The huge body of the jade dragon landed on the square, and the whistling wind overflowed with it. However, when these strong winds blew in front of the quiet and serene high priest, they unconsciously transformed into a spring breeze, gentle and kind.
"Dear Lord Lorochem, welcome!"
Idriel is the High Priestess of the Elves, the spokesman of nature's will, and her gentle jaw gestures that even the dragons, who have always been known for their rebelliousness, cannot be ignored.
"Hello, my old friend, Keeper of Nature. In response to your call, I'm coming! ”
The emerald dragon Laurochem leaned down as best he could, lowering his voice, but the strong air currents that erupted from between his noses during the "whispering" conversation still swept up a vortex of wind around him. If this was not a natural temple, if High Priest Idril hadn't been blessed by the divine power of the temple, I'm afraid that with her elven signature slender body, she would have been blown out long ago.
"Laurochem, since you still call me an old friend, I won't pretend to be any more." Idriel smiled bitterly, "After coming, you have also seen the situation in Green City. It's no longer safe here! We've built a line of defense 200 miles away, but looking at the situation today, the bugs have found a way around it. ”
The emerald dragon didn't interject, just listened silently.
"The Zerg's offensive is getting more and more fierce, we have lost all the eyes and ears of the entire southwest direction, and we are retreating step by step, unable to stop the attack of the bugs."
"What about the Holy City? Could it be that the Elven Royal Court still intends to defend the Holy City and give up its aid to the Green Shade City? Laurochem couldn't help but ask, "If that's the case, old friend, why didn't you give up on Green City sooner?" In this way, the strength of the entire elf clan can be condensed together, and maybe they can withstand this insect plague. ”
"Laurochem, you don't understand!" Idriel's smile became more and more bitter: "When we first discovered this batch of zergs, they only occupied a small area less than a hundred miles away, and all the Zerg added up to only twenty or thirty thousand. It's a pity that our forces were too scattered at that time, and we didn't concentrate our efforts on destroying them at the first time. Now, in just over a month, they have occupied nearly 4,000 square kilometers of forest in the southwest of the Elven Continent, and their troops are ...... It can already be called overwhelming! ”
"You mean they're still growing and expanding?" The emerald dragon understood what she meant.
"That's where my worries come from. If we retreat more and let them grow stronger, then it may not be a good idea to gather the power of all the elves to retreat to the well-defended Silver Moon Holy City. ”
"yes. If your fears are correct, retreating to the Holy City would mean giving up tens of thousands of square kilometers of land. At that time, the forest clans will probably be ten times more terrifying enemies than they are now! The emerald dragon's amber vertical pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly: "Idriel, since you have such concerns, haven't you conveyed your meaning to the Holy City?" They ......"
"They already know it all!"
"And what do they mean?"
"They knew all this, but they didn't have the determination to make great sacrifices. Green Shade City is not a city suitable for defense, so using it as a base to fight to the death with the Zerg, the casualties paid by the elves will be unimaginable. ”
"And what are they going to do?"
"The High Elves of the royal court have contacted all the races they can contact, even the feuding humans. They wanted to build a strong fortress around the Holy City, and the Green City ...... The Green Shade City has become an outcast who stalls for time. ”
"They've decided to give up the Green Shade?" The huge head of the jade dragon was raised high, and its voice couldn't help but be an octave higher: "This is where Ankara, the Ancient Tree of Life, grows, and it is the second highest Ancient Tree of Life in your Elven Clan, second only to the one in the Holy City. How dare they...... How can you give up ......?"
Laurochem muttered incessantly, full of disbelief.
You must know that the Ancient Tree of Life is the place of origin of life that the elves can never give up. According to legend, many pure-blooded elves of noble birth were born from the ancient tree of life. And in the elven classics, the ancient tree of life has been raised to a lofty status related to the life and death of the elf race.
According to the ancient tradition of the elves, every elf has to hold a prayer ceremony to return to the ancient tree of life after death. In this way, the dead spirit can be transformed back into a leaf on the ancient tree of life, and once again merge into the bosom of the great nature.
Therefore, the ancient tree of life is a symbol of the prosperity of the elves, and its status in the hearts of the elves is incomparable.
Therefore, when he heard that the Elven Court was planning to give up an ancient tree of life that ranked second among the elves, the emerald dragon Laurochem couldn't help but exclaim.
"They don't have completely abandoned Ankara either." Idriel's wry smile was particularly strong today: "When the situation is at its most critical, they will send three elven elders to perform a magic ritual to let Ankara forcibly conceive the seed of life as its continuation. ”
The emerald dragon was stunned.
"Since the Elven Court has this attitude, what about the Temple of Nature?" Laurochem suddenly remembered something: "You are one of the three remaining high priests of the elven race, can't you put a little pressure on the elven court through the temple?" What are the priests of the Holy City up to? ”
"They're all busy right now!" Idril sighed wistfully, "They are still busy holding the grandest prayer service, praying for protection and guidance from the great Mother Mother Nature, where can they have time to listen to the voice of the Green City!" ”
"No wonder I don't see many elven mages and druids here, they all went to the Holy City for divination. Hmph, how many times have we dragon sages warned you that such an unscrupulous overdraft of the power of fate to obtain fragments of the future will only trigger a backlash of fate. You elves have built your safety too much on ethereal divination and prophecy. If it weren't for fate, your ancient elven empire would also ......"
Listening to the indignant accusations of his old friend Jade Dragon, Idriel, who is the high priest of the elven clan, also shook his head and sighed helplessly. She understood everything her old friend said, but it had become a chronic problem for the elves. Whenever something big happens to the elves, and when it comes to deciding the future fate of the elves, the high elves who control the elves can't help but want to borrow the magical power of the power of fate.
Of course, this allows the elves to always take the lead in occupying the safest and most secure development path in the long history, but it also makes the elves the biggest enemy of the power of fate. Wantonly snooping on the development of fate and changing the trajectory of fate without restraint caused the elven empire to fall rapidly at its peak, and was replaced by humans who came from behind.
Once upon a time, the elves had vowed not to rely on the power of fate to maintain their existence, so they recuperated in the elven continent for tens of thousands of years. But today, when the elves were facing the catastrophe of extermination, some high elves once again couldn't help but have the idea of the power of fate.
