The elves believe in the goddess of life, practice natural magic, and are very close to nature.
This is also the reason why the elves were able to defend the Forest of Wind. In the Forest of Wind, the elves will receive bonuses from nature.
The Goddess of Life, one of the twelve main gods, has given the elves a beautiful appearance and a long lifespan, allowing the elves whose overall appearance far exceeds the average level of the mainland to survive and have a foothold of their own.
The tree of life that has existed for tens of thousands of years and the spring of life gurgling from under the tree are rich gifts from the goddess of life.
The elves put the water of life between their eyebrows to wash away the filthy air of this year and receive the blessing from the goddess of life.
This is the most important annual festival of the elves. In the past, all elves in the Wind Forest could participate, but now the elves slaves are excluded.
The elves dressed up in costumes and attended this grand and solemn ceremony.
Thousands of elves gathered in front of the square of the cave where the Tree of Life was located. The circular spring well made of white jade was shrouded in a magic protective shield. The clear spring of life rippled slightly in the spring well, attracting all the elves. gaze.
The elves strictly separated their positions according to their status, and there was a bit of oppression in the neatness.
The eight major families were at the front of the queue, and the elves in luxurious clothes were arrogant, enjoying the attention and envious gazes.
The elves are still arriving one after another, and the patriarchs of the major families don't seem so anxious to start queuing up, so most of them haven't shown up yet.
"Have you heard that Her Majesty the Queen has gone into seclusion and will not host this ceremony?"
"Really? Why did Her Majesty the Queen suddenly go into seclusion? Then who will host this ceremony? Is it Princess Irina?"
"Of course it's true. It's not the princess who is presiding over it, but Lady Helena."
"This news is not something that small families like you are qualified to know, but now that the festival is about to begin, it doesn't hurt to let you know."
In the team, a piece of news spread quickly. The announcement issued by Her Majesty the Queen last night, after being suppressed for a night, finally came out, causing quite an uproar.
Her Majesty the Queen has presided over every ceremony in the past, and she has never asked for leave. Only matters of life and death for the elves can wake up the Queen, which makes them worry about Her Majesty's physical condition.
Over the years, the queen has seldom managed the affairs of the clan and spent most of her time in seclusion. It is said that she suffered old injuries in the race war. However, she has never been seen taking action, so no one knows what her physical condition is.
Now, suddenly it is closed again on the eve of the festival, and such an announcement is made. It is inevitable that people will think of some not-so-good things.
The elves have almost arrived, and the patriarchs and elders of the major families have also begun to enter.
Elliot and Vincent's eyes briefly intersected in the air, and then moved away calmly, smiling and greeting the familiar elf.
The Bebili family and the Brewster family are also among the eight major families. As the heads of the family, they can naturally stand in the front row.
After the heads of the eight major families entered the room, the place gradually became quiet.
"The elders are here!"
At this moment, a voice sounded outside.
The elves made a way and saluted respectfully.
Eleven elves who looked quite old, uniformly dressed in white robes and holding magic wands, walked slowly among the elves and came to the front of the team. Twelve chairs had already been arranged in an arc. The elves sat down with a somewhat expression on their faces. Absolutely, the third seat from the left is empty.
"Master Berg and Master Helena are here!"
At this moment, another loud voice sounded.
The tall Berg came side by side with Helena with his hands behind his back.
The elves on both sides bent down and saluted respectfully. Even the group of elders who had previously sat down stood up one after another. Although they did not salute like ordinary elves, they also expressed their respect.
Of these two, one is Helena, who was known as the Elf Twins together with Her Majesty the Queen. She coordinated the rear, established a strong and stable rear for the elves, and accumulated enough strength for the counterattack.
Back then, Berg was known as the Elf God of War and was Her Majesty the Queen's right-hand man. He assisted the Queen in killing countless enemies and established great military exploits.
Facing these two people who have a prominent position and high prestige among the elves, even the respected elders of the elders also need to express their respect.
Berg and Helena walked calmly through the path given by the elves and stopped on the high platform above the group of elders.
Berg looked at the elves and said loudly: "People, yesterday Her Majesty the Queen issued an announcement that she needs to practice in seclusion for a period of time. From now on, all matters in the clan will be decided by the Council of Elders, and today's sacrificial ceremony will be decided by High Priest Helena. Host.”
Although they had heard some news, hearing this exact result from Berg still made the elves a little uneasy.
Although the elves have become more powerful now, everyone has become accustomed to Her Majesty the Queen's presence and protection. She suddenly chooses to retreat indefinitely, and it is inevitable that there will be some bad suspicions in her heart.
Berg's eyes swept across the elves present and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, everyone. Her Majesty the Queen is only in retreat to enter the next realm. During this period, I will protect the Forest of Wind and all the elves. , no enemy can invade."
After listening to Berg's words, the elves gradually calmed down, and their eyes looking at Berg became a little fiery and admiring.
Helena looked at Berg, her eyes narrowed slightly, but her expression did not change at all.
The smile at the corner of Berg's mouth faded, and he turned serious. He looked at the audience and said in a heavy voice: "However, before the festival begins, I have to do one thing. This matter concerns every elf in the elf clan. It is also related to whether the laws that maintain the order of the elves can continue to play its role, and it is also related to the future destiny of the elves!"
"What is it?"
The faces of the elves were full of doubts.
What makes Mr. Berg so serious and serious?
Helena frowned slightly and glanced into the cave. There was silence in the cave with a faint green light.
"Two months ago, Hubert, the patriarch of the Kroll family, died tragically for no reason. The elves lost a powerful tenth-level magician! And just five days ago, the elf family's guard captain, the eighth-level wood magician Kaubir, died. While leading the team to capture the rebels, he was killed on the spot, and all the rebels were let go!" Berg's expression was solemn and a bit sad.
"And the one who did all this was Irina who was given the title of princess!"
The expressions of the elves gradually changed. There have been different theories about the death of Hubert and Corbil, but Irina cannot be avoided. However, Irina has always had a very high status among the elves, so more elves Think the fault lies with Hubert and Corbill.
However, listening to Mr. Berg now, it seems that this is not the case.
"I believe that Irina has been invaded by dark magic and has become a rebel. She is no longer worthy of continuing to be the Elf Princess! I would like to ask the Council of Elders to abolish the position of Princess Irina!"
Berg's voice spread throughout the Wind Forest!
