The Forest of Akrit, the very center area, the royal capital.

In the palace of the royal palace, Edward and Darien each sat in the positions dedicated to the "Crown Prince" and "Priest". Then starting from them, the Elders, the elders and priests of the temple surrounded a huge table in turn. Sitting at a round table, they each wore the same color clothing as Edward and Darien, representing which side they belonged to.

The Senate headed by Crown Prince Edward is on the left, and the temple headed by Darian is on the right. Facing the palace gate, between the "Crown Prince" and the "Priest" is the throne of the Holy Tree Elf King; because of the five thousand In the years and years, the "king" never appeared again, and the splendid throne was filled with dust.

The empty throne has been waiting, and together with all the elven people who are looking forward to the king's reappearance, they are waiting for the return of the Elf King of the Holy Tree.

"Ahem." Edward cleared his throat when he saw that everyone had arrived, "Let the meeting begin."

Not long ago, a "meteor" suddenly appeared and wiped out all the monster zombies in the entire Forest of Akrit. This incident shocked the senior officials in the capital.

Elves have long ago used magic to survey it, and the entire Forest of Akrit stretches for hundreds of thousands of kilometers. And the "magic" that was used by someone who didn't know just now - since none of the elders and Edward had ever seen this formation, let's just classify it as magic - was actually so large in scope and struck so accurately.

With magic on such a scale, it would not be an exaggeration to call it a "miracle".

"Everyone should have seen what happened just now." Dalian said softly, "What do you think?"

Everyone in the council fell silent. After a long time, one of the priests stood up, bowed to Edward and Darian, and replied: "I guess it was a very powerful being who helped us."

"There will be no unreasonable help." Someone in the Council of Elders also stood up, "We know nothing about Him, so Your Highness, I suggest sending out detective rangers to explore His true identity."

"Detection? What should I do if I anger Him?" Another priest stood up and retorted to the elder, "Our detection magic has all failed. What can you find if you send people there?"

"If you don't check, just leave him alone. What if something happens?" Another elder stood up.

"With such an act of transgression, once He gets angry, what will be the biggest change?" Another priest stood up.

"Then what does your temple say?"

"Don't you, the Council of Elders, think more about it? You just know how to shirk responsibility!"

"When did we shirk our responsibilities? Your temple, on the other hand, has done nothing!"

"What did you say?! Say it again if you can! Say it again!"

The elders and priests below had a quarrel, slapping the table and staring, blowing their beards and raising their eyebrows. Watching this scene, Darian and Edward looked at each other, both of them extremely helpless.

The quarrels between the elders and the priests are no longer a matter of a day or two. There have always been conflicts between the two groups.

In the past, when the Elf King was still around, the King could always use his authority and strength to reconcile conflicts, and the two factions were more tolerant and cooperative because of their respect for the King. The Holy Tree Elf King had the final say in everything.

After the death of the Elf King, the temple relied on being able to communicate with the World Tree to a certain extent. The elders would rely on the royal family, so no one would obey anyone, so frictions of all sizes occurred from time to time.

Now these quarrels are considered trivial matters.

As the leaders of the two factions, Darien and Edward have tried to mediate the conflicts between the two parties, but... they have achieved little success.

Without the Holy Tree Elf King as a common and convinced leader, it would be difficult not to have internal struggles. Moreover, after experiencing this plague, conflicts have intensified again, and it is not surprising that there will be divisions in the future.

This is why Edward is so eager to become the Elf King. He does not want the Elf Court to be divided in their generation.

Of course, in addition to this, there are some personal reasons that cannot be mentioned.

"Oh." Edward clasped his fingers lightly on the table, "Everyone, please be quiet."

The crown prince spoke, and the priests and elders also fell silent, but they still looked at each other with angry eyes.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Edward looked at Darian. In formal occasions, they would address each other with honorifics, "How is the situation with the World Tree?"

Dalian did not answer immediately, but after being quiet for a while, she said quietly: "Your Highness, the situation is not optimistic."

"Nearly half of the flowers on the World Tree have withered." Dalian's words were light, but everyone could hear the deep helplessness and sadness.

Ever since the Elf King of the Holy Tree established a connection with the World Tree, the World Tree has bloomed countless delicate flowers, each symbolizing an elven people.

And half of the flowers withered, which means that the plague took away half of the elves.

"In this disaster, we lost almost half of our compatriots."

As soon as these words came out, the meeting immediately fell into deathly silence. The elders and priests who had just had an argument stood up silently. They took off their ceremonial crowns with their left hands and lightly pressed their chests with their right hands to mourn for the dead compatriots.

No matter how big the conflict is between the two factions, at this time, a consensus will be reached on this matter.

Edward, Dali and others also stood up. Just when they wanted to join the priests and elders in mourning for their deceased compatriots, a sudden change occurred!

Outside the palace gate, at the farthest point in the sky, a pillar of blazing white light soared into the sky, turning the entire night into day!

"What!?"

Everyone was shocked and stood there blankly, looking at the beam of light in the distance with their mouths wide open and their eyes wide open.

But soon, they realized: that powerful existence took action again.

What does He want to do?

More than 700 kilometers away, Nalan Beam was suspended in the center of the Optimus Light Pillar. This high-ranking white-robed person is invisible, but the four pairs of huge light wings behind her indicate the noble status of this being.

The chief consul of the Kingdom of God, second only to the Lord of the Supreme Kingdom of God, Loftista, the closest believer to God, the Holy Angel Archangel—Inhalita, Nalanshu.

The pure white cloak suddenly turned into light particles and disappeared. At this time, Nalan Shu had changed into another "look", wearing a pure white gauze skirt, with light golden foot-length hair floating in the air, and a face that resembled Nalan Zi's. Gentle, dignified and holy.

"Ah la ah la, I didn't expect you, brother, to be able to do this."

Nalanzi, who appeared at an unknown time, looked at this woman who could almost be called "Nalanzi plus" with great interest, and was amazed.

Nalan Shu closed his eyes, as if he didn't notice Nalan Zi.

"Only by returning to the 'true nature' can we fully utilize the power of our gods." Nalanzi floated in front of Him, gently hugged the delicate neck, and lightly touched His forehead.

"Welcome back, my Inhalita."
