Why do these sound like last words?

"Don't do anything stupid!" Nan Baiwei stretched out his hand to stop him nervously.

Leila looked helpless and spread her hands: "What are you thinking? It's getting dark and I'm going to lose consciousness. If you don't leave, I have to fight with you before I can leave."

Hearing this, Nan Baiwei took the package quickly and said, "You go, take your time and don't send it."

After that, she didn't care where Leila went, she went into the house and found a comfortable place to lie down.

When the whistling sound faded away, Laila had disappeared from the place, and even the grains had left here.

Nan Baiwei lay in the sleeping bag and made sure the sound disappeared completely before opening his eyes.

When she promised Leila to help him, she heard the system's beep.

【Ding! Congratulations to the player for unlocking the side mission: Alienation of the Elves. Please help the Phantom Twins find out the cause of the alienation and successfully solve it.

Mission reward: unknown.

Mission Difficulty: Hard. 】

This is the first time Nan Baiwei knows that side tasks can be unlocked here.

The difficult difficulty tasks should be more difficult to complete. I hope she can solve them successfully.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on Nan Baiwei's face, and she woke up from her deep sleep.

The outside of the building was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the ground. Nan Baiwei simply packed up his things, took out a piece of bread from the backpack given by Laila and ate it.

Neither Laila nor Gu Li had come back, and they were probably still unconscious. Nan Baiwei could only wander around here looking for clues.

I had been listening to Laila's introduction yesterday, but I had never looked through these buildings. Some information could be seen more or less in the buildings.

Nan Baiwei started from their service hall, which was the building closest to her.

She cautiously walked into the dilapidated building, a cloud of dust rising under her feet.

The murals on the walls have become blurry, but the former prosperity of the elves can still be felt from the remaining fragments.

She carefully searched for any clues that might reveal information, trying to uncover the truth behind the elves leaving this land.

After passing through the half-collapsed corridor, Nan Baiwei came to what seemed to be a hall, which was once the place where the elven clan chiefs convened meetings and held celebrations.

But now, all that's left are piles of broken furniture and scattered debris.

Everything looked so sad in the dim light.

She noticed that although the building was badly damaged, there were no obvious signs of battle.

There were no marks of swords on the walls and no blood on the floor.

It doesn't look like he was forced to leave here, Nan Bai slightly guessed.

After wandering around the hall several times and finding no other clues, Nan Baiwei left and went to the next building.

After visiting several buildings in succession, they were all like office halls, with no traces of battle. This discovery made Nan Baiwei even more convinced that the elves may not have been forced to leave this land due to the invasion of foreign enemies, but for some reason. I voluntarily gave up here for various reasons.

Unable to get any other clues from the building, Nan Baiwei started wandering around the village.

She walked aimlessly in this desolate elven land, and finally discovered a huge pit in the center of the village.

The pit is about ten meters in diameter and bottomless. The edges of the pit are steep and barren of grass, adding a bit of mystery.

Driven by curiosity, Nan Baiwei walked slowly along the edge of the hole, trying to peek into the secrets at the bottom of the hole.

Suddenly, her eyes were attracted by a branch that looked like a stone.

This branch was about half a meter long and had a strange shape. Nan Baiwei approached carefully and picked up this seemingly ordinary branch.

Although I don’t know what material it is made of, it feels extremely smooth and seems to have some kind of magical power.

Out of curiosity, Nan Baiwei decided to take the branch back, maybe Laila would read some kind of message on it.

That night, Nan Baiwei returned to the patriarch's building and raised the bonfire. According to Laila, he should have regained consciousness tonight, and would he take the initiative to come here?

Speaking of which, it’s a pity that she has no place to use her salvage opportunities today!

Nan Bai was slightly worried about his chances of salvaging, as he would not be able to open the blind box after a good try!

The more she thought about it, the more distressed she became. She angrily took out the chicken drumstick from Laila's bag and ate it fiercely.

I don’t know where Leila got this baggage from, but this chicken drumstick is quite delicious.

Just as she was chewing on the chicken legs, there was a squeaking sound at the door.

Nan Baiwei took out a stone ax and a knife and pointed it at the door with vigilance, only to see the person wearing clothes made of green leaves with a bird standing on his shoulder.

This person is Laila.

Nan Baiwei silently put down the weapon in his hand, "Have you regained consciousness?"

Leila nodded, "I just recovered, I thought you had gone back."

"I promised to help you, so naturally I won't leave first." As he said that, Nan Bai thought of something and took out the branches from the bag.

"Look, I picked this up from the big pit in the middle of the village. Do you recognize it?"

Leila's originally calm expression became very excited after seeing the branch, "Where did you say you picked it up?"

"In the middle of the village."

"In the middle of the village... that's where the Tree of Life is. This branch belongs to the Tree of Life!" Leila said firmly.

"The branches of the tree of life are actually petrified... No wonder my people gave up here." As he said this, Laila slowly looked happy.

Nan Bai stood aside slightly confused. How could he read so much information from a branch?

Seeing that Nan Baiwei didn't understand, Laila took the initiative to explain that this seemingly ordinary branch was actually a branch of the tree of life.

The tree of life is a symbol of the elves' faith and has magical power. It can not only give birth to the elves, but also bless the entire elves.

After explaining, Leila kneaded the secrets on her hands, and her whole body emitted light green fluorescence, and the green light slowly spread to the branches.

The branches began to resonate, and then, as if it had received Leila's inner call, a voice suddenly sounded in the air, ethereal and ethereal, as if it came from the distant past.

It sang a song, which seemed to be an ancient song of the elves. The song told the glory of the tree of life, the glory of the elves and the yearning for peace.

Although Nan Baiwei didn't understand the meaning of the lyrics, she deeply felt the sadness and helplessness in the voice.

The singing gradually dissipated, and Nan Bai slightly recalled the melody of the song. She looked at Laila, expecting that the other person would have a sad face, but she did not expect that he smiled excitedly.

Nan Baiwei:?
