The purple-striped griffin landed silently in a dense jungle. Irina slowly walked off the griffin's back. A light golden light flashed under her feet. In the next moment, she appeared in the midst of a life surrounded by many layers. Inside the tree cavity.
After Irina left, the Tree of Life automatically closed the tree hole and no longer allowed anyone to enter, including Sally, who was sitting cross-legged outside the tree hole.
"Xiao Shushu, I'm back." Irina said with a smile.
The shiny branches swayed happily beside Irina, as if welcoming her back.
"Low-key, low-key, if that old witch Helena knows that I'm back, then I have to leave again." Irina pressed her hand to signal the Tree of Life to be quiet.
The tree of life, which was originally jumping for joy, immediately became quiet according to the words. Only a few branches approached Irina and gently rubbed her hair, as if to express their joy.
"Okay, I will come to see you more, be good." Irina reached out and touched the branch and said dotingly.
After comforting the Tree of Life for a while, Irina solemnly said: "Okay, now I need you to help me wake up Her Majesty the Queen. I have a very important thing that needs her help. This is related to the survival of the elves, or rather It is the survival of the entire Nolan continent."
After the queen went into seclusion, no news came out. Even when many major events happened in the elves, she did not give any reaction or instructions. This was confusing and many rumors spread.
Some people say that the Elf Queen is dead and Helena has become the actual controller of the elves.
Some people also say that the Elf Queen went into seclusion to practice and handed over the elves to Helena and no longer managed them.
Irina was certain that the Queen was not dead. Re Death fell into a deep sleep for unknown reasons, and even she could not wake her up, so she could only ask for help from the Tree of Life.
The branches of the tree of life swayed gently.
"Even you can't wake her up?" Irina frowned slightly. It seemed that the queen's situation was worse than she expected. She was silent for a while and then said: "Then do you know how to establish a relationship with the goddess of life? The connection is deeper than the magic of life, and we need her help."
"Dingling~"
As the branches swayed, a melodious wind chime suddenly sounded.
Irina closed her eyes subconsciously, and in a daze, she seemed to see some scenes flashing through her mind like a picture page, as if a vast history was unfolding before her eyes.
She saw the elves building a city in the Forest of Wind, saw the bloody elves driving the demons out of the forest, saw the cruel and bloody racial war, and saw the carefree elves in the forest...
This is a flashback history.
The elves were once powerful and intimidating, and they were also bullied because of their weakness, but they never gave up their pursuit of freedom.
In this vast history, the Tree of Life is like a sea-fixing needle, always standing in the center of the Wind Forest, witnessing the development of the elves.
In the end, the scene was frozen in ruins.
It was a black, scorched earth, with almost no green plants visible.
Even the cruel race war did not bring such a terrible ending to the Wind Forest.
An elf with beautiful long silver hair appeared in the wasteland and planted a seed with his own hands.
Irina knew that it was the tree of life.
And that elf with beautiful silver hair should be the goddess of life.
It's just that the elf's appearance looks a little blurry, and only her outline can be seen.
"So, you are really the hope planted by the goddess of life, and you have protected the elves for endless years." Irina murmured. She had heard many legends about the tree of life since she was a child, but she had never seen it with her own eyes. history, I still feel extremely shocked.
The picture gradually faded away, leaving only an endless white space.
Irina was in it and looked around, feeling empty and lonely.
"Where is this place?" Irina asked aloud. Her voice seemed to spread far away, but she received no response.
She didn't panic, there was no way the Tree of Life could hurt her.
But she didn’t know why the Tree of Life made her read the history of the rise and fall of the elves and then brought her here.
"Irina."
At this moment, a weak voice suddenly sounded from a distance, as if it was right next to his ears.
"Mother!" Irina's eyes lit up, and then she said nervously: "Where are you? How are you now? Why does your voice sound so weak?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine. It seems that the Tree of Life connects our minds, otherwise I wouldn't be able to talk to you directly."
"Did Helena do something to you?"
"This matter has nothing to do with Helena, it is my own choice. Although our elves won the race war that year, I also suffered several serious injuries. This retreat is to repair the injuries from that year."
"Do you know what has happened in the Wind Forest during this time?" Irina pursed her lips.
"Yes, child, you made a very right choice, just like we chose to resist back then." The Queen's voice was filled with relief and appreciation.
"You and Helena built all this, and I'm overthrowing them. Even so, do you think I'm doing the right thing?"
"During the period of seclusion, I once reflected on the fact that when we drove away the demon clan to avoid being oppressed and enslaved by them, we established a system of enslaving the clansmen and turned ourselves into disgusting people. The original intention may be Okay, but this is indeed a very stupid and ridiculous decision, and what is even more ridiculous is that in the past 100 years, we have gone further and further down this wrong path, and we dare not turn back and correct it because we are afraid of collapse." The Queen sighed.
"But you didn't stop Helena." Irina frowned.
"I can't leave now. I'm trying to break through to a higher level. This is related to the future of the elves, or the future of Nolan Continent."
"Do you already know about the existence of the Old Ones?" Irina asked in surprise.
"The Old Ones?" the queen wondered, but soon her voice became a little more urgent: "Are you talking about that terrible monster that once disrupted the order of the continent? An indescribable thing with a body as huge as a mountain?"
Irina's eyes lit up and she nodded: "Yes, we found its sealed head, a huge octopus head hundreds of meters high, but it is about to break through the seal, and the strength of Level 10 is not enough to kill it completely. , even unable to cause threatening damage to it. So I returned to the forest and wanted to seek help from the goddess of life or the goddess of light."
"The Old Ones really do exist..."
