Chapter 1114 36. Safety and Insecurity
Thinking about it on the other hand, how powerful should the Thirteen Supreme Kings be when they oust such elves and become the protagonists of the new era?
At this moment, Annan suddenly felt like a boy who was struggling to pursue a knight lady. He suddenly realized that the fair-skinned and beautiful sister next door who was never short of money had a different identity. He realized that the empire still had a lot of wealth and secrets waiting for him. Go discover it - and you have done nothing except trying to get along with your ancestors!
But from another perspective, perhaps it was because Annan did not take advantage of the relationship with his ancestors that they were able to maintain this relationship.
Annan recovered from the shock and followed Ariana and the Skeleton King towards the Green Capital.
The outermost edge of the basin is a paradise for beasts and companion races. Unicorns that are difficult to see outside appear in groups here. In the area bordering the grassland and forest, there are beautiful and agile beings such as fairies, tree elves, and elf dragons. When they arrived at Evanus, which was called the forest, only the elves were left.
High elves, blood elves, night elves, wood elves, wind elves... except for dark elves, you can find all elven races in the Green City.
The number of elves has always been very small, probably not as large as the population of a human kingdom. But at least they can be found everywhere in the Green City.
Their overly tall bodies always make Annan only see a pair of long legs when admiring the architecture, and maybe it’s because the elves never bow their heads - or maybe it’s the legendary aura of the Skeleton King that makes them afraid Offended, they didn't notice Annan either.
The scene of lush foliage, blooming flowers and exquisite buildings reminded Annan vaguely of some familiar shadows. After a moment of recollection, he remembered that it was the March celebration in Huadu.
However, compared to the Green Capital, the Flower Capital Celebration is just like a poor parody without learning any essence.
Eliana led Annan to the outskirts of the Green City. The scenery here is very good. You can enjoy the entire basin by looking up, but it is also the farthest place from the World Tree.
All guests are accommodated in this area.
Annan chose a tree house adjacent to the Skeleton King. Its left side and back are temporarily empty, but in front of it lives a king from a kingdom in the east of Middle-earth.
“The celebration starts in five days. You can choose a familiar elf to be your guide.”
"I choose Yi Rui..." Annan stopped mid-sentence.
No... It's dangerous enough for Irilanze to sneak up in the middle of the night. What's the difference between putting the sapphire in front of Ilimoyasi or the female ratman in front of Annan!
“Can I choose anyone?”
“As long as she is willing.”
“I choose you.”
The soul fire in the Skeleton King's eyes beat a few times, but he did not move away.
Eliana stared at Annan: "Why me?"
"Although you are cold, arrogant, and like to ridicule me, I can feel that you have a heart that is cold on the outside and warm on the inside. "
Eliana continued to stare at Annan, and nodded when he was about to change his mind: "Okay, I will be your guide."
She left temporarily and wanted to serve as her guide. Report the matter to the elders.
Annan climbed up the stairs of the treehouse. There was a burst of magic power behind him, and Annan, who was still climbing the stairs, suddenly floated up and followed the Skeleton King to the tree house in the canopy.
It is a tree house in name, but it is very spacious for elves who are often over 1.8 meters tall. Annan will not feel cramped - especially when he opens the wooden windows and looks through the leaves amid the fragrance. With a clear view of the World Tree, even the devil would give up the idea of "what to burn today" and immerse himself in it - and then be driven by the chaotic attribute to have the crazy idea of burning the World Tree.
Speaking of which...did the elf invite the devil?
Annan was about to ask the Skeleton King. It stood outside and did not come in as if it was afraid that the soul fire would ignite the tree house. He said first: "Annan, you are still young and do not understand the loyalty of elves to their partners... They will live their whole lives. Almost only looking for one partner, and not accepting sharing a spouse with others, you-"
"You are overthinking, Mr. Skeleton King." Annan quickly explained: "I just need a suitable guide. Instructor Ariana has never left the Aldo Forest since she was born, so she must know this place better.”
"It's best this way."
Before Annan could ask about the demon, the Skeleton King returned to his treehouse. It seems to be an illusion, but Annan seems to feel the emotions from the soul fire of Skeleton King that are similar to "Jack and Rose are in love, why did he become a vampire and be with Elizabeth!"
Has even the Skeleton King misunderstood him?
The prejudice of warlocks is really terrible...
Ariana came back not long after she left, and left again not long after she came back. She only gave Annan a leaf—not a leaf from the World Tree, but a leaf that could make a whistle.
Annan just blows it when she needs her.
After collecting the leaves, Annan didn't go anywhere. He moved a chair and placed it in front of the window. He sat by the window and watched the changes of the World Tree from afternoon to dusk and then to dusk.
Irilanze arrived as expected after sunset.
After the customary hug, Annan tried to struggle, but found that he still couldn't push Yirulanze away.
After all, I only ate the fruit for a week, while the elf mentor ate it for more than a thousand years.
"I can't... breath..." Annan patted Yi Ruilanze, and she reluctantly let go of him.
Annan gasped: "During training, instructor Ariana gave me a purple fruit that can increase strength and magic power. What is it?"
"What you said It should be the fruit of original intention.”
“Is it very precious?”
"You want it?"
"Yes."
Irilanze said that she would pick a basket tomorrow.
"Thank you, but I'm afraid it's not enough..."
Annan took it three times and his strength almost doubled.
It seems like an astonishing increase, but the main reason is that Annan's strength is too small, and people in this world are generally stronger... Even now, he can only have time to beg for mercy during the duel with Olmedo.
What really attracts Annan is the improvement of magic affinity. Annan had actually improved his magic power the week before... Even if he couldn't let everyone in Liberty City enjoy the fruits of his original intention, he could at least allow a "squib" like Mr. Victor, who was only one step away from a real mage, to truly transform. "
Irilanze said that although the Fruit of the First Heart is not precious, it is just enough to be eaten in the Royal Court, and it is difficult to distribute it in large quantities to Free City.
"I will look for an opportunity to ask the elves. Come on, elders. ”
Annan’s eyes fell out of the window again.
Today is a clear night. The branches of the World Tree seem to be able to gently touch the distant stars. There is a faint fluorescent light flowing between the branches. These rays of light converge into a river and illuminate the night sky of the emerald city of Evanus.
What is more peaceful than looking at the beautiful night sky?
What could be more dangerous than looking at the beautiful night sky with a single 1,500-year-old elf?
