Great Elf Sage

Why did the Elf Council of Elders bring up the old matter again, and how would Nolan deal with it? Let’s not mention it for now. On another continent far away from the Elf Forest, there is something that has not yet been known to the elves in the Elf Forest. It is happening quietly, and the ripples caused by this incident will bring about drastic changes to the entire world in the future. .

……

The Elf Forest is separated from the mainland by the Broken Tooth Mountain Range in the north, and the other three years are oceans. Therefore, the entire vast Elf Forest is actually a peninsula.

The entire Elf Forest is divided into four jurisdictions with the World Tree in the center as the midpoint: the northwest is the jurisdiction of the gold elves, the southeast is the jurisdiction of the silver elves, the northeast is the jurisdiction of the forest elves, and the southwest is the jurisdiction of the water elves. The land area is the smallest, but in addition to the land, the shallow sea in the southwest of the Elf Forest is also the jurisdiction of the water elves. Many water elves even call themselves sea elves because of this.

Southeast of the Elf Forest, the coastal area under the jurisdiction of the Silver Elf is the sea area called the Storm Sea by the elves. Legend has it that the Storm Sea is a scar left on the surface of the world by a great war in ancient times. It is shrouded in violent hurricanes all year round, and is accompanied by space cracks that may suddenly appear at any time. Even the sea elves who are the best at moving in the sea among the water elves , are unwilling to get close to this death zone.

The continent where the Elf Forest is located is called the Atalan continent by the elves. Humans on this continent think that there is only one continent in the whole world, but in fact the elves know that at least opposite the Storm Sea, there is another land called Asth. Lan's continent.

……

Aslan Continent, Knox Province in the northwest of the United Kingdom of Omas and bordering the Storm Sea.

Brother and sister Sher and Shirley are hiding in a stable in a village somewhere.

Shirley's hair was tied up with a long rag, but the rag that should have covered her ears was now a little loose due to her previous escape. In the gap between the rag and the black hair, there was a pair of The humans' much longer pointed ears leak out.

Brother Sher did not tie his hair with a cloth, but under his not-too-long black hair, you could vaguely see his left ear, which had been cut off at the root, and his right ear, whose top half had been cut off in half.

At this time, Sherry was carefully helping her sister wrap up the rag on her head. Sherry looked at her brother's ears that had not yet healed, feeling extremely sad in her heart.

Sensing Shirley's gaze, Sher comforted: "Shirley, you don't have to think too much. This is my own decision. If both of us hide our ears, it will easily arouse human suspicion, so as long as I am aboveboard, Humans don’t care too much if they expose their ears. What’s more, as we are adventurers now, it’s normal to have a few wounds on our bodies.”

After hearing this, Shirley was grateful for her brother's sacrifice, but she was also even more heartbroken.

"Actually, just cut off my ears. Elves' ears are closely related to their talents. And brother, your talents are the highest among the people. Instead of keeping my inferior talents, it's better..."

"Stop talking!" Sher interrupted Shirley suddenly and excitedly.

"It doesn't matter what the elves' talents are! If it weren't for this damn talent and this damn longevity, we wouldn't be in this situation..."

Shirley looked at her brother who was venting his emotions, and knew in her heart that he didn't care as much as he said. The high-spirited and sunny Crown Prince brother was still a light in Shirley's heart until now.

Shirley listened quietly to Xie Er venting, and then spoke again:

"Brother, I just feel very sorry..."

Sher calmed down, sighed, and said:

"I'm sorry, Shirley, please forgive me for being rude. I'm just... feeling angry about my incompetence. If I wasn't so lazy, if I worked hard to achieve the strength of a high-level elf earlier, if I didn't evade responsibility Traveling abroad, if I had inherited the throne earlier..."

Shirley was about to say something, but Sher interrupted her with a wave of his hand.

"Shirley, you don't have to blame yourself. This is my responsibility and should not be borne by you. Moreover, my goal is too big. Those humans must be sending people everywhere to look for me. They will never think that I will Destroy your talent and show your appearance openly!"

Xie Er smiled softly and continued to talk to Shirley softly:

"Haha, Shirley, I know what you are thinking, but in my heart, you are more important than my talent! You don't have to worry, I won't just get back up. Besides, have you forgotten who I am? I am Shel Dalton, one of the few geniuses in the Blue Mountain Elves for thousands of years! Even if I lose the blessing of the power of nature, even if the future is full of thorns, I will definitely be able to open up a new path and climb to the top of the Blue Mountain again. Let those inferior humans kneel at my feet!"

Looking at her brother who had regained his strength, Shirley was very happy, but in Sher's firm eyes, Shirley saw a trace of disturbing madness.

……

In the evening, dusk is approaching.

Sher took Shirley, pretending to be an adventurer who needed to move at night, and left the village under the cover of twilight.

As soon as the two entered the woods, there was the sound of horse hooves from the other side of the village. Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man shouted faintly: "... found... a man and a woman... black hair... long ears..."

From the moment the sound of horse hooves came, the spirit of the brother and sister began to become tense. Horses are very valuable resources. Only human knights and nobles can own horses as mounts. There is no doubt that the two of them are being followed by their pursuers!

With no time to think about it, Sher picked up Shirley and ran deep into the woods. Shirley called on the power of nature to make the shrubs along the way clear a path. Sher also relied on her remaining natural talent to make the path behind her quickly grow thorny shrubs.

There was a faint light of fire coming from behind, and Xie Er knew that the two adventurers who set off in the evening in this remote village were still too suspicious after all. Those villagers must have given directions to the pursuers!

"These damn humans!" Scheer spat in a low voice.

In the panic, Shirley didn't hear what Sher said. The induction of the force of nature told her that she was about to leave the range of this small forest not far ahead.

"Brother, we are leaving the woods ahead, let's turn..."

"No need!" Sher's attitude was very resolute, and he did not plan to rely on the advantages of the woods and the assistance of the power of nature to try to deal with the pursuers as he had done several times before.

Just listen to Sher's analysis: "The reason why we were successful in the past few times was because the number of humans chasing us was small, but this time it was different. Judging from the sound of horse hooves just now, the pursuers had at least a dozen horses. This time We can't kill them all in a sneak attack like before... Moreover, more and more soldiers have been chasing us in the past three times. This time, more than a dozen knights with horses came at once, which shows that our direction of advancement has been blocked by them. Got it, if you delay here, you will only fall into a bigger siege!"

"Then, what should we do? We are about to leave the woods ahead. Without the cover of plants, we can't avoid their sight at all..." Shirley was completely panicked at this time.

Without saying a word, Sher rushed out of the woods with Shirley, and asked Shirley to summon a thick layer of thorn bushes at the junction of the woods and the plain.

Then Sher continued to pull Shirley to the northwest, and asked Shirley, who had completely lost her opinion:

"Shirley, do you remember why we ran away in this direction?"

Shirley was stunned for a moment and replied: "Yes, it's because my father said before he died that there are our compatriots from far away at the end of the northwest..."

"That's right!"

Sher continued: "We are almost at the end!"

"Varied……"

Before Shirley could finish speaking, the two of them turned around a hill and their vision suddenly opened up.

At this time, the sun has completely set, the stars on the sky are shining faintly, and the two bright moons are rising opposite each other on both sides of the boundless sea in front of us.

The two of them were on the edge of a cliff, and the view from both ends extended to the end, all of which were cliffs more than ten meters high.

The seaside, which should have been dimly lit, was now illuminated by white light from time to time: it was the light of lightning coming from the deep sea hundreds of meters away from the sea.

"The Sea of ​​Death... at the northwest end, there is nothing, only this Sea of ​​Death..." Shirley stared blankly at the seemingly never-ending storms, lightning, and thunder on the sea ahead, and her heart was close to despair.

"No!" Sher's eyes were a little crazy. "There must be a way, there must be something else I haven't thought of!"

Shirley didn't want it to end like this. After hearing Xie Er's words, she also began to think about whether there was something she hadn't expected.

My father's words should be based on the descriptions in the clan's documents describing the true spirit war. By the way, 'The sky ancestor dragon and the ocean master fought in the sea for several months. The sky was torn, the sea was boiled, and the world was divided... …'

"It's a split!" Shirley suddenly thought of something and shouted out.

Sher looked at his sister and asked impatiently: "What split!"

Shirley didn't notice her brother's tone and said excitedly: "...It's a split! We always thought that the Sea of ​​Death was the end of the world, but in fact everyone was wrong! This is a crack in the world, and the Sea of ​​Death is not the end. There is an unknown world on the other side!"

Scheer also became a little excited after hearing this. "You mean..."

Shirley took a deep breath and then said:

"The oldest documentary record of our Blue Mountain elves is the record of the True Spirit War event seven thousand years ago. My father's guidance came from a sentence in this document, 'The elves came here with the help of the eldest son. , the eldest son returned to the northwest with some of his compatriots.' It is difficult to see what hidden information is hidden in this sentence alone, but combined with the final chapter of the True Spirit War, 'The Ancestral Dragon of the Sky and the Lord of the Sea fought in the sea for several months, and the sky was torn apart. Judging from the words "the sea was boiled and the world was divided"..."

Sher had already understood what Shirley meant and said excitedly: "The Sea of ​​Death is the battlefield for the true spirit war. The elves come here from across the Sea of ​​Death!"

Shirley added: "And our compatriots, even our origins, are across the Dead Sea!"

To be continued.
