Earl Dragon and Prince Witchwood

Adams had a long dream.

In the dream, he led a team of ten people out of the elf forest, but encountered a giant ogre in the forest outside.The magic of the elves is closely related to the sacred tree. Now that the sacred tree is exhausted, their strength is not as good as before, so after escaping from the dangerous situation, he is the only one left with injuries on his body.

In the first few decades of his life, he never took a step out of the forest. According to the direction on the map, he was blocked by a cliff on the island, and then the ground collapsed, and he didn't remember anything.

Now, he woke up from the smell of barbecue. When he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar elk mount eating grass. Not far away, two strangers were sitting opposite each other, grilling meat around the fire.

Xia Ke was sitting by the fire, holding the thousand-year-old nanmu brought back from Austin in his hand, and was carving something with a knife. The ice-blue Origin Stone on his wrist was strung together with the incantation, like ink, drawn Printed on Wumuren's body, it glowed faintly and then disappeared.

Xia Ke put the semi-finished puppet on the ground, and there seemed to be an invisible thread holding the puppet in his hand. His fingers moved slightly, and the witch puppet raised its arm, and a beam of blue light froze the fire in front of it, but the next second, Melted again by Orr's fire.

Xia Ke grinned, unconvinced and took back the semi-finished product, intending to continue to improve it.

Auer never opened his mouth to say anything about Xia Ke's magical ability, but he was also shocked by his exploration and creation.Now, Austin has helped the little prince in front of him to awaken the flower of thorns, and now, he is really different.

"Excuse me... where is this place? Who are you?" Adams walked towards the two people confusedly and somewhat warily.

Seeing that the elf prince finally woke up, Xia Ke stopped what he was doing.

"You're finally awake." Fortunately, the prince has his own mount, otherwise, they don't know how much work they would have spent on this journey.

"We're here to help you out."

Adams had a lot of doubts in his heart, but when he heard the word "trouble", he suddenly woke up, thinking of his people who were suffering, and thinking of his mission.

As if understanding his thoughts, Xia Ke smiled slightly, very harmlessly: "You fell off the cliff, remember? You were seriously injured, so you slept for a few more days."

Strictly speaking, he slept for seven whole days. Auer's strange disease broke out last night and bit him.

They had already passed the ogre's residence and came to the outskirts of the elf forest, but without the guidance of the native prince, they couldn't find the entrance. Even if they could find the entrance, they would have a lot of trouble if they invaded rashly.

Xia Ke explained the whole story to Adams, and Adams accepted the matter without spending too much time—without him, the string of ice-blue gemstones on Xia Ke's wrist was once the treasure of the dark elves. This baby's body is like wearing an invisible and solid armor.After the dark elf prince disappeared, it also disappeared.He had seen related detailed descriptions in the classics of the elves, so he recognized it at a glance.

"So, Princess Daphne is dead?" Adams' tone was full of guilt.The current king of the elves is not Daphne's father. The former king of the elves went to the lifeless valley in order to find the root of the tree's depletion. There is a cave there, which is the relic left by the ancestors. According to legend, there is the soul of the tree. .

But after the Elf King entered, he never appeared again.

The dark elves used to live in a much worse place than the elves, so this desperate change did not deal a fatal blow to them, but as time went by, they finally couldn't sit still.

Then the King of the Dark Elves also entered the valley.

"Didn't he come back?" Xia Ke and Orr were led by Adams into the edge of the elf forest. Along the way, Adams told him a lot about the recent situation of the elves.

When there is a problem with survival, the conflict between the two parties is not as sharp as before. If the elves and the dark elves were fighting each other with swords before, then now, the two parties have started a tacit understanding The silent "Cold War".

"May I ask... who are you? Why did the guardian choose you?" Adams endured more and more, and finally asked.

There is an ancient text left by Austin on his arm, which is exactly the same as the inscription on the god's tablet in the Elf Palace, and it is full of endless power of life. He can be chosen by Austin. Are these two servants of the patron saint?

Xia Ke glanced at Adams with a half-smile: "I am the son of Daphne and Aiel."

Adams' eyes widened in surprise.

At this time, the dense bushes in front parted automatically, and a pleasantly surprised voice came from inside: "Your Highness, you are finally back!"

The return of Adams made the elves very happy, which was the only consolation in the dark days, but the elves soon discovered that their prince did not bring back Princess Daphne, but two strange men .

Adams was able to recognize the ancient elven characters of the guardian Austin, and the elven king Nelson became more familiar with him. After confirming Xia Ke's identity, Nelson did not dare to neglect at all, and wanted to place him in the elven palace , but was rejected by Xia Ke.

"I'm just here to help you solve your troubles, so, is Arnold here?"

Arnold is the name of the Dark Elf.

Capturing the fleeting unease in Nelson's eyes, Xia Ke couldn't believe it: "It's already this time, are you still fighting?"

"Of course not." Nelson shook his head, but the relationship that had been frozen for a hundred years was not easy to dissolve.

Xia Ke and Orr were waiting in the center of the elf forest—by the dying sacred tree, waiting for the first meeting between the two elf kings in several years.Due to the gradual depletion of resources and the deterioration of the living environment, the two races have not communicated for a long time.

"It's like this. Since I want to find the root of the problem, I need to enter the ruins to see what's going on."

"But..." Nelson was a little hesitant, that was a place only the elves and royal families could enter.

"At this moment, why are you still hesitating?" Arnold frowned. He was Aiel's friend, and after learning that Xia Ke was Aiel's child, he showed the utmost friendliness to him.

Because of his good friend, Arnold has mixed feelings about the elves. On the one hand, he looks down on these arrogant elves, but on the other hand, he hopes that the two groups can coexist peacefully and prevent such tragedies from happening again.

"Okay! But please take me with you. It's my pleasure if I can help you."

The actions of the few people have been carried out under the attention of the elves. When they heard that someone could finally solve this problem, they almost wept with joy, but at the same time they were full of fear, fearing that this was just an extravagant hope.

In order to verify the statement that only the royal family can enter the ruins, Arnold and Nelson both brought the elites of the two clans and set off to the valley together.It was already dark when we reached our destination.

"The original forest of elves is very beautiful." Nelson sighed sincerely as he watched the night forest, which was lit with green light in the past, become dark and lifeless.

Xia Ke reached out and touched the magic protection door at the entrance of the cave, but there was no sign of rejection.

So, he glanced at Orr and walked in.

Arnold and Nelson followed closely behind them, and the four subordinates who followed behind felt a white light in front of their eyes. They were still standing in place, but the two kings and the two foreign messengers had disappeared.

There are several huge stone tablets standing in the cave, engraved with the history of the struggle of the elves.

"You have the same roots, why can't you coexist peacefully?" This is something Xia Ke never understood.

"This...the inscription was naturally generated..." Nelson was speechless for a while. In fact, he had been thinking about this issue all these years, but their conflict had a long history and could not be traced to the root cause.

Xia Ke raised his hand and spread out his palm, a small white flower with thorns grew out of it.

The one that represents the dark elves is a thorny thorn, and the one that represents the elves is the pure flower of life. This thorn flower is probably a different kind in the forest of elves.

"According to what you said, I am not only unblessed, but also a heterogeneous person who does not belong to either party. Now, the orthodox elves on both sides need a half-breed to save me. Isn't it ironic?"

Unlike Xia Ke, Orr felt something was wrong from the moment he entered the cave.

It was obvious that he was tortured by the curse last night, and after only one night, the heart-piercing feeling vaguely hit and intensified.

Xia Ke led the two into the depths of the cave. Because of Orr's restraint and forbearance, he didn't notice anything unusual.

He walked into the depths of the leylines, touched the roots of the rotten sacred tree with his own hands, and began to seal the spell with the carving knife presented by Austin.Compared with before, the mantras were not engraved on the roots of the trees. They were like melodious elves full of vitality, flying and spinning in the windless cave, nourishing the rotten roots and shriveled branches.

Xia Ke exhausted all his strength and didn't stop what he was doing all night.Arnold and Nelson have never seen such miraculous and miraculous spells. Seeing the dying sacred tree come back to life under the nourishment of these spells, although they were uncontrollably excited, none of them dared to do so. speak out.

"Xia Ke... let go..." Auer, who had been guarding all night, finally spoke out. As soon as he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of bright red blood.

He stood there all night in a daze, as if another consciousness in his body was competing with him for the control of his body. When Orr's consciousness regained consciousness, Xia Ke had already completed what he was doing.

But before Arnold and Nelson could speak, the sacred tree began to dry up rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if an invisible force quickly drained his vitality.

"Al...what's the matter with you?"

Xia Ke was brought back to attention by Orr's voice. He hurriedly raised his legs and walked towards the crumbling Orr, but when Orr raised his head, the effect of Cripps' camouflage potion disappeared, and Orr's eyes should have been light amber. His pupils turned into a strange shade of green, he raised his head, tightly grasped Xia Ke who was supporting him, and showed a wicked smile.

"We finally met, thanks to you for providing me with enough nutrients..."

In the next second, Orr regained the initiative in his body, but his power was out of control, and the black dragon scales covered his skin, and under Xia Ke's shocked gaze, he turned into a black dragon.

The giant dragon glanced at the newly depleted sacred tree, then at the two elf kings who drew their swords, stretched out its claws, grabbed the stunned little prince, spread its wings, and flew outside...
