There was silence in front of the cave, and all the elves had a look of fear on their faces.
There was obviously only one person on the other side, but that threat seemed to weigh down the whole sky, making the elves feel a little breathless.
He was rumored to be dead for three years. When he reappeared, Alex, known as the strongest man on the face of the earth, still possessed terrifying power that made people tremble.
He didn't even take action, but the gryphon severely injured Berg, who was rumored to have had a draw with him before.
What happened today was completely beyond the expectations of ordinary elves.
Irina was deposed as a princess, and then fought a battle with Lord Berg with the help of the Tree of Life.
Then Alex appears, seriously injures Berg, and saves Irina.
The development of the plot was too unrealistic and caused discomfort to most elves.
The entrance to the cave was blocked by a hazy green mist, making it difficult to see clearly what was going on in the cave. The breath of life that usually continuously poured out had been completely interrupted, as if it had been sealed off by an invisible wall.
The Tree of Life seemed to have completely cut off contact with the outside world, and even the soft green light was gone.
"The fountain of life is gone!"
At this moment, an elf shouted in panic.
The elves were startled and looked at the Fountain of Life.
The fountain of life that was originally gushing out was completely silent at this time.
There was a pool of clear spring. At this time, there was only a slightly moist pool left. At the bottom of the spring pool, there was a dark hole, and all the spring water was missing.
"This...what can we do!"
The great elder looked at the completely dry fountain of life, with a look of panic on his face.
"The fountain of life has dried up! This is a sign of great misfortune! This is a sign of great misfortune!"
An old elf in the crowd shouted hoarsely, with deep fear in his voice.
The faces of the elves were full of fear and uneasiness. Her Majesty the Queen was suddenly unable to retreat, Princess Irina was deposed, the Tree of Life was cut off from the outside world, and the Fountain of Life dried up. This happened one after another in just two days. It seemed to cast a layer of gloom in the hearts of all the elves.
"I heard that the fountain of life has dried up three times in the history of the elves. Each time, the elves will face catastrophe... The last time it dried up was more than a thousand years ago, and then began a thousand-year period. A race war." A weak voice sounded from the crowd.
Uneasiness began to spread among the crowd.
The elves looked at Berg and Helena, who was standing on the high platform with a solemn face. The queen was in seclusion and the princess was deposed. Now, these two are the strongest in the clan and can decide some things.
As for the Council of Elders, all the elves knew that half were from Berg and half were from Helena, and it was still the two of them who made the final decision.
The horrific wound on Berg's shoulder had stopped bleeding and healed, but the torn clothes and red blood looked a little embarrassed. He shook off the elf's hand holding him with a fierce look, took a few steps forward, and pointed in the direction of the cave. He said ferociously: "It must be the witch Irina who caused the fountain of life to dry up. She must be caught and killed! Only in this way can the bad omen be broken!"
"Yes! Kill Irina!"
The patriarch of the Behrman family was the first to echo. Although the patriarchs of the Berg family looked hesitant, they still echoed one by one.
Ordinary elves were a little panicked at this time and did not dare to speak out.
What happened one after another seems to indicate that something bad is about to happen. If Irina is killed now and Alex, who just left, comes back, who can stop him?
Berg?
No, he obviously can't.
But who can stop the already crazy Berg? Looking at Berg walking slowly thinking about the entrance of the cave and the strong men following him, no one dared to say anything.
"Kill Irina! Break the bad omen!"
The elves who supported Berg shouted neat slogans and walked towards the cave in anger.
Among them are followers of Berg, as well as elves who are afraid of the terrible future that may come when the fountain of life dries up, and are eager to end it all.
Compared with the possibility of subverting the elves and plunging the elves into a dire future, Alex seems to have become less terrifying.
The other elves watched this scene in silence, looking a little confused and at a loss.
"Break the seal and kill her!" Berg stood in front of the cave, looking at the green seal and pointing with a somewhat crazy expression.
"Kill her!"
The elves also raised their magic wands with crazy faces and pointed in the direction of the cave.
Various colors of light appeared on the magic wand, including many level 10 experts. With so many magicians attacking at the same time, no matter how powerful the seal was, it would be impossible to withstand it.
Some elves couldn't bear to close their eyes. Whether it was Princess Irina or the Tree of Life, they couldn't bear to see them die like this.
At this moment, a figure quietly appeared at the entrance of the cave, blocking everyone.
It was Helena who said almost nothing from beginning to end.
She just stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the elves calmly.
The elves stopped the magic they were about to cast in a panic, or turned in other directions, and then looked at Helena with confusion and panic. What is the high priest doing?
Berg's expression also froze, he frowned and looked at Helena and said, "High Priest, what do you mean?"
"Berg, do you want to become the common enemy of the whole family?" Helena looked at Berg and said solemnly: "The ancestral motto of the elves is that anyone who destroys the tree of life and the spring of life is the common enemy of the whole family. You The battle with Irina has already damaged the origin of the Tree of Life, and now you want to forcefully break the barrier of the Tree of Life. Do you want to completely kill the Tree of Life?"
Helena turned her eyes to the elves behind Berg and said in a deep voice: "The offensive and defensive properties of the Tree of Life are extremely weak. This barrier is formed by the condensed essence of the Tree of Life. If you forcefully break the barrier, Life will be destroyed." The Tree of Life is not far away from death, do you want to be the murderer of the Tree of Life?"
The faces of the elves changed dramatically, and they put down the magic wands in panic. Killing Irina and killing the Tree of Life were two completely different things.
That's not something they can afford, not even Berg.
The origin of the magic of the elves starts from this tree of life. It is the spokesperson of the life girl in this world. If it is killed, the elves will be abandoned by the goddess of life, and they will become the sinners of the elves.
Berg looked at Helena, his face changed several times, and finally he loosened his fist and said with some forbearance: "I just want to rectify Irina who caused all this. I have the highest respect for the Tree of Life, but since The high priest said that this would cause harm to the Tree of Life, but I had no intention of doing so, but the injuries on my body still need treatment. Please continue to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, and I will take my leave first."
Berg took a deep look at the direction of the cave, turned around and left.
"The interests of the elves are above all else. No one can cross this line." Helena said calmly, looking at Berg's back.
Berg paused for a moment, then continued walking forward.
