Lord Witch, please don't resurrect me again!

"Uh, it's because my voice was wrong when I practiced singing yesterday, and my throat hurts a bit."

Leoric couldn't help asking: "Romira, you have been practicing singing recently, do you like this very much?"

Romila said: "Well, on the one hand, I like it, on the other hand... Didn't Lord Leoric ask me to learn to sing?"

I?When did I say that?

"Didn't you say it when you first met the half-blood elf? Make me a singer."

"what did I say……"

I am!

Fairy queen, you are the diva!

That's not the way to say it!

Things have come to this point, and they can only make mistakes.

"Become a diva!" Leoric gave a thumbs up.

"Yes! I will definitely!" Romila said seriously.

The two were chatting when a flower fairy suddenly flew up and said, "Your Majesty! Something has happened! The Golden Tree... ahhhhhh!"

Before the flower fairy finished speaking, she cried like a watering can. Romila said quickly: "Don't cry! Tell me what happened first, what happened to the golden tree?"

"The golden tree is dead!"

"What! How could the golden tree... ah!"

Upon hearing this, Romila rolled her eyes and immediately collapsed.Leoric quickly supported her, "Hey! What's the matter with you...Come here, Fu! Fu!"

……

Everyone rushed to carry Romila into the ward, and Fu quickly made a diagnosis and treatment, and immediately said: "It's nothing serious, it's just that I was stimulated, and it will be fine in a while."

Seravi was standing in front of Romila's bed at this time, and his face was also very ugly. Leoric asked, "Apprentice, I heard that the golden tree..."

“Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…!”

Leoric wanted to ask her what happened to the golden tree, but seeing her like this, she couldn't answer, so he had to hold the silly child in his arms and calm her down first. mood gradually recovered.Leoric asked her, "What's the matter with the golden tree?"

Serawi sobbed and said, "The golden tree fell, and the half-blood elves will perish."

Leoric thumped in his heart when he heard this, and said, "Is it so serious? What is that golden tree?"

Serawi explained the matter of the golden tree, saying that the golden tree originated from the great sage of the high elves, Severus, who was known as the "sage of life", and this sage understood the "truth of life" from the universe. ", and received the revelation from the God of Outer Heaven, thus creating the Golden Tree.The golden tree contains the essence of life. Under its protection, the high elves can live forever, youthful and wise.Later, the high elves broke off the branch of the golden tree, and used this branch containing power to create the half-blood elves and other servant races.In this sense, the golden tree is the mother of the half-blood elves.

Later, the half-blood elves guarded the golden tree for generations. This was their mission from birth, just like their allegiance to the high elves, it was engraved in their bones.Later, countless half-blood elves meditated and enlightened under the golden tree, created various schools of thought, and comprehended all kinds of knowledge; half-blood elves got married, had children, and died under this tree... This tree carries the life, old age, sickness and death of elves.Those who died were buried under the roots of the tree, and eventually became one with the tree.

From this point of view, the golden tree has a very sacred position in the hearts of the elves. It is equivalent to the "miraculous spectacle" in the game, and it is a sacred object in the three senses of culture, politics, and religion.If it is damaged, it will definitely be a huge blow to the elves.

And this tree is not only a spiritual totem, but also has strong practical value.As mentioned earlier, the golden tree can make people live forever and stay young forever. 200 years ago, the demons invaded and polluted the roots of the golden tree. The golden tree lost its legendary power, but some of its power still remained.The golden tree will continuously provide the elves with spiritual power and magic power, and it also has the effect of warding off disasters and curing diseases. People living under the golden tree are less likely to get sick and younger; Without the shelter of the golden tree, he looked obviously more haggard than the elves living under the golden tree.

Because of this, the half-breed elves of Romila's line have always lived near the golden tree, even though this part of the land has become dangerous and barren due to the pollution of the demons in the early years.For their family, the tree lives and the people live, and the tree dies and the people die.

After listening to Serawi's explanation, Leoric's expression also became dignified—this is indeed a big deal, and it is a huge blow to the spirit and body of the half-blood elf. It is no wonder that Romila In a coma on the spot.

Leoric asked Seravi, "Didn't I hear that the golden tree has many seeds? Can you plant a new one? Can we go directly to Wolf City and plant a new tree?"

Serawi shook his head and said, "The golden tree is different from other trees. Once the main tree dies, the seeds will die too."

"How many 'main trees' are there in the world?"

Serawi said: "It is said that the sage of life planted seven golden trees, four of which were cut down by the demons, and there were three more, one of which was located on the plateau, the land of the current demon king; It’s ours, but ours is seriously polluted; the last tree is said to be in the sea, but how could the tree be in the sea?”

Leoric nodded silently, and said: "So, this thing is priceless and has no market, and there is no place to get a second one?"

"You can say that," Selawi said with a sigh.

At this moment, Romila on the hospital bed opened her eyes.

She cried as soon as she opened her eyes, and said, "Why? Why did the golden tree die? Obviously everything I did was correct, and obviously the half-blood elves are about to revive, isn't it? Sister, Lord Leoric! Hasn’t our national destiny just risen? Why did the golden tree die at this time? Did I, the queen, do something bad that caused the gods to punish me?”

Leoric said: "Romela, don't rush to let go of this sin. It may be a coincidence. The golden tree is also life. Since it is life, it must end. A thousand years old..."

"No, the golden tree is immortal! There must be some reason... By the way, have you found out why?" Romila asked the group of flower fairies nearby.The flower fairies whispered to each other, and one of them said, "Uh, according to the news over there, it might be because...the old regent destroyed the roots of the tree."

Her Majesty the Queen ran away on the spot, "What? He's an old boss, I'm going to die with him!" As he said that, he rolled over and got out of bed, and ran out without his shoes on.

Chapter 230 IX: I want to exchange one with you

Leoric quickly stopped her, grabbed his arm and said, "Romela! Don't worry, the old regent will not destroy tree roots for no reason..."

"I don't care what his reasons are, he and I must die today!" Romila gritted her teeth angrily, "Your Majesty, let go! Otherwise I'll bite!"

It seemed that she was really mad with anger, and Serawi quickly grabbed her and said, "Sister, sister! Even if you kill old Ed, the golden tree will never come back. Sit down, we Let's hear what's going on first, okay?"

"That's right, even if I kill that old man a hundred times, the golden tree won't be able to revive it!" Romila was immediately discouraged, and her anger turned into sadness, and she sat on the ground and cried loudly.Selawi hurriedly cried with her sister, but Leoric told Fu to lock the door, and Romila lost control of her emotions. It is best not to let outsiders see this scene.

The two cried for a while, but they didn't want to stop. Leoric called Fu and said, "You take some soothing herbs from the herbal medicine cabinet, mix it with black fern root and mash it, then put it on the fire and roast it."

Fu hurriedly followed suit, and after a while, the smell of Chinese medicine filled the room, and Romila and Serawi inhaled the calming herbs, and their emotions gradually eased.At this time, Romila's nose and eyes were red from crying, and Selawi's nose was still running.

Then Leoric let everyone else go out, helped the sisters sit down, and said, "You two are half-blood elf princess and queen, cheer up! If you both panic, the people of the half-blood elves You’re going to lose your backbone.”

Romila sobbed, and said, "Your Majesty, it is said that the half-blood elves have guarded the Golden Tree for thousands of years, but I never thought that it would be ruined by me! I will be blamed for death! If the Golden Tree can be revived, then I will even die." I am willing to sacrifice my life in exchange."

"Not at all, you must be more important than the golden tree."

Romila said, "No! I am not as important as the golden tree!"

Leoric said solemnly: "I said you are more important than it, so you are more important than it! To me, 1 golden trees are not as important as your safety, understand?"

"Leo!"

Romila let out a groan, as it is often said in novels, and then threw herself into Leoric's arms.Then she raised her head again, and the two looked at each other. Obviously, the atmosphere was up, and they kissed each other's lips directly.

The two of them completed a great sublimation of love, but Serawi showed a subtle expression of wanting to laugh but couldn't laugh, thinking: No, you just talk about things, why are you still gnawing on it? ?You really don't treat me like an outsider, do you?

A few minutes later, Romila finally remembered that her sister was still by her side, she gently pushed Leoric away, and said, "My lord, we...are not married yet, so maybe this is not good." She glanced at Sey Ravi laughed out loud.

Serawi's forehead was sore and swollen immediately, thinking: No, sister, what do you mean?Are you mocking me for being lonely forever?Are you so proud of marrying yourself?

Leoric coughed dryly, and said, "Well, I can't tell the reason after hearing the rumors from the flower fairies, so let's go to the kingdom of elves..."

"Then I will go with my hands!" Selawei said loudly, "I want to show my classmates my new familiar."

hand in hand?Fuck!You mean that big guy?

Leoric's features crumpled at the thought of that thing.Serawi previously turned the family of the Black Water Monster Baby - a very ugly finger monster into his familiar, and he couldn't put it down.So this little girl's brain is somewhat problematic. This may be what people often say "there is only a fine line between a genius and a madman".

Romila said: "Didn't you say yesterday that the big hand is not feeling well recently? Can it take you there?"

Serawi clapped his hands and said, "That's right! Shoushou seems to have eaten too much these two days, and he has a little indigestion. Forget it, let's go riding!"

Romila said: "Ride the horse for at least two and a half days, during which the boats and vehicles are tiring. King Leoric is busy with everything and can't waste time. Why don't we go by ourselves? Don't follow."

Leoric smiled and said, "It's all right, let's go by plane."

"By plane?"

"Ah, it's flying dragons—you come with me!"

As Leoric said, he brought the two of them to a square behind Wild Wolf City. As soon as they arrived here, the elf sisters with a keen sense of smell smelled a stench of wild beasts, and both of them frowned.

I saw many cages on the square, and there were a few men wearing red waistcoats and slippers standing around them. They wore shackles on their feet. The shackles were not very heavy, but they had bells hanging on them, and they walked very loudly.Romila asked curiously: "What is this place? Why haven't I seen it before?"

Leoric said: "This is a prisoner reform camp that was recently built. Didn't we capture many capable people and strangers before? For example, some excellent barbarian warriors, shamans, magicians, animal trainers, and technicians What. I ordered people to pick out those who have special skills, and come here for unified transformation. They work during the day and study at night, and they can move freely within a limited range. I personally do ideological work for them every month. I hope these people will come to their senses and choose to use their abilities for a just cause."

Serawi pointed to the wooden house behind the square and said, "I seem to have seen the shaman of the Cyclops just now?"

"Yes, he is here to conduct research on shamanism for me. I told him to write out what I know, and finally make it into a practical magic scroll, or potion or something. The more I do, the more I will The more you reduce his sentence, the more you will be rewarded."

"Look there are some barbarian warriors who are sharpening their knives. These people are now attached to the 'captive camp'. When there is a war in the future, let them fight the enemy. If they can make military achievements, I will set them free. "

"There are also some craftsmen who are engaged in technology. I handed them over to the Hammer Group to make up for the shortage of manpower, and let our craftsmen learn barbarian technology."

Romila nodded silently, thoughtfully. At this time, a gust of autumn wind hit, and the flags on the square fluttered.Romila looked up, and saw that the color of the flag was like a fire, with beautiful golden patterns painted on it.

"The flag of the Holy Middle-earth United Army?" Romila said in surprise.

"Yes, I have decided to re-establish the Holy Middle-earth Alliance to unite all the indigenous races on this planet, whether it is barbarians, plateau people, elves, murlocs or orcs and lizardmen... unite everyone to fight against the demons These foreign invaders." Leoric said, looking at the flag.

"Originally our slogan was to restore the homeland. The phrase "recover the homeland" is very good for the plateau people, but it has little appeal to other tribes. In order to unite more forces, when we promote it in the future, I will Fly the flag of the Holy Middle-Earth Alliance. There is no one in this world who does not hate the demons. They burn, kill and loot on this continent, committing all kinds of crimes. The order of the whole world has fallen into chaos. It is the common aspiration of the people to expel these outsiders .”

Romila nodded and said, "The half-blood elves will always be loyal to you."

"I trust you," Leoric said.

At this time, there was a scream in the sky, and the elf sisters raised their heads, and saw a large group of pterosaurs swooping down.Selawi shouted excitedly, while Romila crawled into Leoric's arms in horror.However, the pterosaurs obviously didn't come for them. These guys parked steadily on the square, and when they landed, they looked for the water tank to drink water, just like horses.Romila saw that the pterosaurs had marks on their bodies and were wearing armor. She asked, "Are these pterosaurs ours?"

"Yes, ours." Leoric explained, "We defeated the army of the walrus Misri in the battle of the mountain city before, and many pterosaurs were domesticated in their army. Later, the animal trainers surrendered. We Let them tame pterosaurs for me, and offer a higher price than Misri. These animal trainers have no loyalty at all, and they work as long as they are paid. Now I have got about fifty They come from high-quality pterosaurs. These beasts are very obedient and powerful, and can carry loads. The largest one has a wingspan of ten meters, and it is no problem for two or three people to sit on it. If there is something important later, I will ride the pterosaur. "

Leoric whistled, and then talked to the pterosaurs in animal language, saying: "Who of you would like to carry us to the elf's territory? It's just behind the Cuibi Mountain in the northeast. Go and enjoy Ten charcoal-grilled fat chickens and one pig's head."

Hearing this, the pterosaurs shouted excitedly, scrambling to serve Leoric, and a few of them fought excitedly, and the animal trainers couldn't stop them.

Leoric chose the strongest one among them, asked the animal trainer to put the bridle and saddle on it, and said: "Romela, Selawi, come with me. There is no need to bring luggage, we are now Go, come back at night."

Selawi exclaimed: "So fast? I remember that the road was difficult to walk..."

Leoric touched Serawi's head with a doting expression, and said with a smile: "My little idiot, the elf territory is very close to here in a straight line, and it's only troublesome to go over mountains and ridges. Let's go to the sky, half an hour The hour is up."

……

In fact, in less than half an hour, about twenty minutes, the pterosaur carried the three of Leoric to the elf territory.The Kingdom of the Half-Blood Elf is located in the "Dark Mist Valley" behind the Cuibi Mountains. It looks like a gray haze from the sky. It feels like one mouthful will cause coughing, two mouthfuls will cause lung cancer, and three mouthfuls will cause lung cancer. The effect of the magical elements reflected in the sunlight, there is no harm in inhaling them.Passing through this foggy land, you can see the "Water Bottle Pass", the pass of the Half-Blood Elf Kingdom. The terrain here is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Only the sparsely populated elf kingdom can survive on the original land of the Crow King and protect the precious golden tree.

At this moment, Leoric and the others disembarked the flying dragon at the "Water Bottle Pass", greeted the guards to let them open the gate, and immediately changed their horses and entered the city.Not far away, I saw the golden tree hidden in the gray mist.

The golden tree is the largest thing Leoric has seen since crossing.It stands like a mountain in the mist, exuding golden light, it is impossible to estimate the size of this tree with the naked eye, but Leoric guesses that this big tree will exceed any he has seen in his previous life man-made structures.

The city of the half-blood elves was built on a tree trunk, and the three rode straight to the center of the city.Along the way, Leoric kept looking at the huge golden tree. He obviously felt that it was very close, but he hadn't reached the root of the tree after walking for a long time.And the closer he gets, the more he can feel a decaying dead air. Although the golden tree is still shining, the light is getting dimmer, and there is a strange smell in the air. Romila and Serawi are even more depressed. Out of breath, Romila said, "I feel like I'm going to die with the golden tree."

After running for a while, they finally saw the city gate. At this time, the golden tree was too huge to look directly at. Leoric was standing under the tree. Even if he looked up, he couldn't see the whole golden tree.When we got here, we could see that the center of the big tree had been completely extinguished, only the branches still had some rays of light and some breath of life.What is even more painful is that the entire city has fallen into extreme depression.All the buildings are closed, no laughter can be heard in the whole city, and people are crying everywhere they go.The elves fell and knelt on the street, and some people prayed to the corpse of the golden tree.

People didn't even react when they saw Leoric and the others, they just looked at them with dull eyes, and occasionally some people would try their best to stand up and salute, or say some incoherent words.The death of the golden tree devastated these elves more than Leoric imagined.The whole city has been paralyzed because of the Golden Tree, that's not okay!

They came to the bottom of the tree trunk in silence all the way, only to see that the tree was already full of people kneeling at this time.In this desperate moment, most of the elves came to pray together under the tree, trying to wake up the dead golden tree.And among these people, Leoric saw a huge hole in the ground, with thick smoke billowing from it.

Leoric came among the group and shouted, "Tell me what happened!"

These desperate elves raised their heads when they heard King Leoric's voice, and started talking in a hurry.Someone cried to him, asking him to resurrect the golden tree; someone asked him to punish the sinner who destroyed the golden tree; someone else cried to him about the whole story.The scene was so chaotic that Leoric couldn't understand it at all. At this moment, an old voice above his head said, "King Leoric, please let me explain everything."

Leoric raised his head, and saw an old face appearing on the bark of the golden tree. That person was the old regent with roots on his feet.

Fuck, this scene is kind of weird, what's going on?

Qunyiba ②7 seven

Chapter 240: Ancient Armory

When they saw Ed Regent, they cursed him and threw stones at him.The regent king in the bark was unmoved, expressionless.Romila exclaimed, "How did you become one with the Golden Tree?"

The old regent sighed, and said: "It's a long story, but I really didn't kill the golden tree on purpose..." As soon as he said this, the elves around were excited, and some people climbed up the trunk angrily and wanted to attack The old regent in the bark.Leoric was irritated by these guys, and shouted: "Shut up!"

Leoric's own murderous halo, his voice was loud, and his angry shout echoed in the world, scaring the elves into silence.Then Leoric asked the old regent, "What's the matter? Report it to me."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Only then did the old regent speak to tell the whole story.

Didn't Leoric say earlier that he wanted the half-blood elves to make a big move?Everyone was enthusiastic, those who loaded cars loaded cars, and those who demolished houses demolished houses.However, if you move, you have to move the golden tree there.The old regent said, we can plant a small golden tree.

As mentioned above, the golden tree has many seeds. As long as the conditions permit, these seeds can take root and become a new golden tree.However, the seeds of the golden tree are different from other trees. These seeds are no longer hung on the branches, but buried in the soil and grow on the roots of the tree, like nodules.So the old regent decided to dig up the root of the tree and get a seed.

It's actually pretty safe here.Because they take the seeds every year, mainly to maintain the golden tree, otherwise there will be too many seeds in the roots, which will affect the nutrient absorption of the trees.Everyone is very enthusiastic about moving. For the sake of efficiency, the shovels that the workers hold are all enchanted. This kind of shovel has a transparent coating on the surface, which makes it stronger and sharper—and this is the foreshadowing of the story.

After digging for a while, they found a tree root full of seeds. The workers took a few big and good seeds, and they were ready to call it a day.However, at this moment, an elf who saw it suddenly discovered that there was a door under the root of the tree!It seems that there is some building under the golden tree.This is amazing!The Golden Tree has been here for thousands of years, and I have never heard of any buildings below it, and judging by the appearance of this door, it should be some ancient relic.He quickly reported the news to the old regent. The regent had never heard of any ancient ruins under the golden tree, so he was very curious.He inspected the site first, and judging from his experience, the ruins were older than him, estimated to be two or three hundred years old.After checking a lot of information, it was preliminarily deduced that it was a secret armory left by the Holy Middle-earth Allied Forces when they fought against the demons.

The old regent became excited at once, and said to himself: Ancient weapons have always been synonymous with Niu X, if some big killer is dug up here, then I am not a great achievement?Although the old regent was old, he was "a martyr in his twilight years, full of ambition", and he still wanted to do something for the half-blood elves in the last few years of his life, and to strive for some honor for his life that was about to end.

Therefore, the old regent Ed decided to dig out the "ancient armory" and dedicate it to Lord Leoric.He asked the workers to continue digging until the entire gate was exposed.However, as I dug, I found that the lower half of the door was entangled by the roots of the golden tree.The workers didn't dare to dig anymore, so they came to ask the old regent for instructions.

The old regent knew the golden tree very well, and he knew that breaking one or two roots would have no effect on such a large golden tree.So he ordered: "Dig!"

However, the old regent forgot one thing.That is, the roots of the golden tree have the function of gathering the magic power in the air. These magic elements are very complicated and extremely unstable, and the shovels used by the workers for this time have been enchanted.The enchanted shovel touched the root of the golden tree, and the root buried under the soil contained a lot of magic elements. When stimulated like this, the root exploded!At that time, the old regent was standing on two streets, and he heard the deafening explosion. He hurriedly asked people to check, and saw that the fire spread under the tree, and the roots of the tree were all on fire, and the fire even had a tendency to spread to the trunk.The elves came to put out the fire one after another, and almost the whole city put their strength into it. In the end, the golden tree was saved, but the fire still devoured the roots of the tree.Originally, the golden tree would be okay without a little root, but this golden tree has been polluted by the magic of the demons, most of the roots are dead roots, and it is only relying on this little root to maintain life , this small fire became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
