Chapter 497 The Lord of the Abyss is coming soon?
The elf princess is the child of Lilith and the previous elf king. This is one thing she can be sure of.
Because she was pregnant very early, but the gestation period of the Elf royal family was extremely unreasonably long, as long as eight hundred years.
But the bloodline of the royal family is also very special. They usually give birth to twins, so the inheritance can be continued.
When the Abyss invaded the Aika continent, she was already pregnant. However, during that battle, she was indeed captured and was secretly manipulated by the Abyss Overlord.
The child in her belly was "contaminated". This was known to the orc king at the time, and he first tactfully persuaded them that they should kill the child in her belly.
However, due to the long reproductive period, the elves often can only have one pair of children in their lifetime, so the elf king at the time certainly disagreed. They believed that it was too hasty to judge based on vague prophecies.
Even if the child is born a monster, he doesn't believe how strong a newborn child can be, so the war breaks out.
That battle caused heavy casualties to the three races. The Elf King was also seriously injured after the war and died soon after. She took over the crown and continued to manage the Elf race.
Now that I think about it, is it the so-called abyssal medium that brings disaster to the mainland, or is it that prophecy?
The Elf Queen looked at Eri Yi in front of her and smiled gently, "Have you studied spells well recently?"
Eriki nodded obediently and allowed the Elf Queen's hand to gently caress the top of her head.
"What the dragon said just now..."
Eriki wanted to ask, but was interrupted by the Elf Queen.
"Dakosi, you don't have to worry about these things. We elves are not that easy to bully, and Alex can't break into the Ahir Forest. You can just stay in the forbidden area for the next few days and don't move around."
The Elf Queen looked at the red-haired girl in front of her. In addition to her red hair, her daughter also had the beauty of the royal family and considerable talent in natural magic cultivation.
It's just that I was too playful in the past, but recently I am much more diligent.
"But will everyone..."
Eriyi was a little worried. What Alex said before was heard by all the elves in the Ahir Forest. Elves are also intelligent creatures. As long as they are thinking creatures, they will have selfish motives.
As an elf princess, she actually doesn't have much prestige within the clan.
It can be seen from her reputation value, which is only a few hundred, or because her mother is the Queen of Elf.
After all, she was strictly disciplined in her early years and rarely had contact with other elves in the Elf Forest. She had stayed in the Aisir Forest for more than a thousand years. As an adult, she really couldn't stand the dullness here, so she chose to sneak out and met Godzilla Duke.
Now the elves are beginning to doubt the legitimacy of her identity, and even doubt whether she is an abyssal evil. Are the whole clan really willing to fight the dragons over this matter?
After the Elf Queen left, she sat quietly by the Fountain of Life and looked through the chat history on the world's public screen.
In recent days, there have been many discussions on this matter in the world, and because of the arrival of the guardian dragon, the explorers of the elves have also begun to speak on the public screen.
"We are in the Ahir Forest, and Alex of the Dragon Clan has just arrived. It is really a scene, and the pressure is really the top combat power in this world."
"Oh? Is the Dragon Clan unable to sit still again? Are you ready to take action against that hidden danger in the continent?"
"I originally thought that the guardian dragon Egg was stupid, but now it seems that she really has a reason. The Elf Princess is really a species of abyssal creature, and she might actually be a big hazard."
"According to the development of the 'plot', will she awaken some strange ability and directly disintegrate the Aika continent from the inside?"
"It's a pity that Duke Godzilla, a genius of a generation, has been resisting the abyss all his life. He didn't expect that his lover would also be an abyss creature in the end?"
"What you are saying is too one-sided. Duke Godzilla is the template for the protagonist, right? How could things be so simple? The 'heroine' will never die."
"It depends on whether it's a fun story or a sad story..."
"Are you confused about the floors above? This is the original world... there is no aura of the protagonist."
"Actually, I just triggered a hidden mission. If you kill the Elf Princess, you can get generous rewards. However, the difficulty of this mission is death... I don't dare to take it."
"Nonsense, the Elf Queen and Duke Godzilla are not easy to mess with. Let the indigenous people make trouble about this matter, and we can just eat the melon."
"Anyway, my main mission is about to be completed. Once completed, I will return. It doesn't matter what kind of chaos the world becomes."
"Duke Godzilla seems to have just regained the northern territory, and even the Great Wall. If he knew the news, he wouldn't just sit there, right?"
"This Duke has a bad temper. He dared to kill the guardian dragon Egg back then. He will probably continue to be tough this time."
"It's hard to say. He didn't know the inside story last time. Now that he knows that the Elf Princess may indeed be harmful to the mainland, how should he, the 'Guardian of Humanity,' make a decision?"
"The Great Wall has just been established, and the human army seems to be less than one million. How dare he lead his troops to leave at this time? If the Abyss counterattacks, the last soldiers of mankind will also die, right?"
"This Duke has finally regained his military power. If he leads his troops to the elves due to personal matters, I'm afraid there will be chaos down there again."
"..."
The explorers talked to each other, and the discussion was in full swing. The crisis in the abyss was temporarily lifted, and they were relieved.
Anyway, to them, they are just passers-by in this world. Many people have completed their tasks and will leave soon. What happens afterwards is none of their business.
Eriki bit her lip lightly and looked to the west. If the Dragon Clan really came to attack the Ahir Forest, wouldn't it be inevitable for Godzilla to fight again?
The tragedy of that year will repeat itself, and elves, humans, and dragons will die in large numbers because of her.
Eriyi never entered the world with the mentality of playing games. The flowers, plants and trees she came into contact with here are all real. The elves like to be quiet and do not fight with the world. They live a paradise-like life. The happiness of the race is very high, but Will these people also be involved in the war?
Everything was just for that prophecy, and for that prophecy that came to nothing, she became the source of cholera.
It has become a scourge that everyone calls for beatings.
Early the next morning, Eriki opened her eyes from the tree house and heard the commotion coming from outside.
She rushed out quickly and saw several guards outside the forbidden area, dragging away an elf man.
Judging from the bow and arrow held tightly in the opponent's hand, he must not be doing anything good.
Not everyone in the elves wants to go to war with the dragons, and Alex's words have indeed impressed people's hearts.
"The elves will be destroyed in your hands! Let me go!"
The elf man was still yelling and was knocked unconscious by the guards.
There were many elves on the periphery who came to "watch". The guards guarding the forbidden area glanced around, and the leader of the elves said: "Why are you all here to see it? That is a prophecy from the dragon clan, not from our elves."
But as soon as he finished speaking, the sky changed.
Darkness swallows the light, and scarlet covers the earth, like fear coming.
The blood-colored moon hangs high in the daytime, emitting a bleak light. There has never been such a celestial phenomenon in the Aika continent for thousands of years.
And there is a hazy bloody light from high in the sky to the forbidden area of Aisil Forest. The sensitive elves can even hear the roar coming from the netherworld, which is full of blood.
Eriyi's eyes were sharp, and she took out the staff from the storage space, ready to fight at any time.
But no enemy came, and she received a prompt from space.
[If it cannot be cracked before the crisis comes, the Lord of the Abyss will come in 72 hours. 】
[Warning: The explorer's physique complies with the container standards, please be prepared to resist. 】
Eriki didn't panic. She had long known that taking risks in space was not a safe thing.
Space will not give explorers a fatal mission, nor will it give them pure welfare.
Just like Godzilla has acquired the identity of Duke Godzilla, he also has to undertake difficult and high-risk tasks and fight constantly on the battlefield.
And since she has obtained the identity of the Elf Princess, it is naturally impossible for her to just use her spells and skills in the Elf clan for free.
All gifts have already been marked with a price, it's just time to pay the price.
72 hours? There is still a lot of preparation time.
…………
Northern border fortress, the Great Wall.
After receiving the news from Hui Liyi, Lu Chen spent a day deploying troops at various passes to temporarily stabilize the Great Wall.
He made a judgment that he must go to the Aisir Forest.
The elves may not be reliable. Or rather, when the rumors spread and the truth gradually emerges, even the elf queen's status may be unstable, let alone keeping Eri.
Eriyi's task is indeed only simple to normal difficulty, but even the simplest task cannot be completed by an explorer lying down without doing anything.
Judging from this aspect, Lu Chen can be sure that the elves cannot protect Eri Yi 100%, and at most they can delay it for some time.
So he had to go. If he didn't go, the difficulty of the mission would not be what it seemed. It would be easy for the dragon clan with the highest combat power in the world to kill Eriki.
He summoned a few of his confidants and said, "You lead the army to garrison at the Great Wall. I want to go to the Aisir Forest."
Gu Lanting, who was always calm, was the first to speak this time, with a look of shock on his face, "Commander, you can't leave at this time!"
The northern border has been initially set, and the movements of the Abyss army are unknown. If the general leaves at this time, it will be a devastating blow to the morale of the army, and the reputation Duke Godzilla has finally accumulated in the northern border will be greatly reduced.
They had just received news from the royal capital, this time through official channels. It was obviously King Kusla with sinister intentions. He knew that the Duke's old love for the elf princess was still unresolved, so he forced the other party to make a decision at this time.
This is a conspiracy, and he has also heard about the prophecy. This time the evidence is conclusive. If you go, wouldn't you be an enemy of the Dragon Clan and the entire continent?
At that time, the military power and status that was finally regained will be in vain.
"These bullshit dragons are always making predictions and prophecies. I think Miss Dakosi is a very nice person. How could she destroy the continent?"
Gree cursed. He was the old man who followed Lu Chen. Naturally, he had met the elf princess back then.
"Commander, if that rumor is true... what will you do?"
Lei Ze also wanted to persuade, mainly because the Great Wall is now inseparable from the Duke. If the Abyss counterattacks back, mankind will be completely finished.
Although he understood the other party's mood in his heart, as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, was it too willful to make this decision at this time?
"No need to say more, I have made up my mind."
Lu Chen shook his head, "If it's true..."
He didn't continue talking, got up and walked out of the conference room.
Gu Lanting stopped in front of Lu Chen, "Commander, bring the army, the Dragon Clan... is too strong."
"This is my private matter. The Great Wall needs you, the North needs you, and humanity needs you."
Lu Chen smiled casually and said: "This move is indeed willful, but if she doesn't stop, I think everything will be meaningless."
After that, he walked past Gu Lanting, turned his back to several people and said: "Guard the Great Wall and wait for my return."
When I opened the door and walked out, the sky was dark and the blood moon was high.
He looked towards the north, feeling a little confused.
It turns out that this is the purpose of the abyss. This is not a war, but a sacrifice.
He received the news about Eryi and was not panicked. First of all, the difficulty of the task was there, and even if the so-called Lord of the Abyss was very strong, there would definitely be a process if he wanted to come over.
It was impossible for her to awaken directly in Eriki's body, because she was not the original elf princess at all. As long as there was an advent process, he could cut it off.
But Lu Chen was a little confused. The Lord of the Abyss sounded like the big head in the abyss. He was probably something that broke through the difficulty limit of level 40. Otherwise, the Dragon Clan would not have prophesied that the existence of the Elf Princess would destroy the world.
Then why did such a powerful creature never appear north of the Great Wall, but why did it come to the Aika continent in such a troublesome way?
Could it be that...the barrier between the world of the abyss and the continent of Aika has certain restrictions that prevent creatures that exceed a certain limit from passing through?
It was useless to think too much, so he jumped off the Great Wall and prepared to set off eastward.
This place is far away from the Ahir Forest. Even at his speed, it will take two days. He has to get there before the dragons force the elves to surrender.
When he was about to set off, a figure fell next to Lu Chen, his ice-blue hair dancing lightly in the cold wind.
Anarius said: "Leave a big pile behind and just leave like that?"
Lu Chen glanced at Anarius and said, "Please lead the Moon Wolf Clan to guard the Great Wall. This is my private matter."
Anarius patted Lu Chen on the shoulder, "You seem to have misunderstood something. We are not familiar with humans and only recognize the master of the Moon Wolf Clan. If you say this is a private matter, then it is the private matter of the Moon Wolf Clan. You They say that we cannot lead human troops to participate in unreasonable wars, but we, the Moon Wolf Clan, are no longer included in this."
Anarius said, and let out a roar in the sky. Following the wolf roar, ice-blue shadows fell under the city and surrounded Lu Chen.
A happy smile appeared on Anarius's wolf head, "I've long wanted to meet those big reptiles, so we...walk?"
