Chapter 187 Farewell

Are the elves the ones who trapped Saman?

Lu Yi thought about the elves' initial attitude of half coercion and half inducement, and could not come to a conclusion for a while, so he just said conservatively: "It's hard to say, it's possible."

"It's probably true." Saman complained, "They were able to capture me so accurately in the elves' territory and then let me go. How could they have any other choice other than the elves? I said the elves can't be kind and friendly.

“Although I still don’t know what happened to you, I can guarantee that if you hadn’t performed amazingly here, I would have been killed by the elves without anyone noticing.

"I thought that this final mission, if not earth-shattering and full of dangers, should at least be thrilling and dangerous to be worthy of the S-level rating."

As Saman spoke, his face showed regret and depression.

"But I didn't expect that in the end, I was completely benefiting from you. All the twists and turns had nothing to do with me."

Lu Yi patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't think so. Although you haven't experienced these thrilling and exciting things, you haven't received the good looks of the elves either..."

"Are you offering this as comfort?"

Lu Yi said sincerely: "I think so."

The corners of Saman's mouth twitched slightly, "Okay, if you think so, then so be it."

"I have finished my story. Now it is your turn to tell me what happened in the Elf Forest these days."

Lu Yi told him his experiences of the past few days in a concise and concise manner. Except for the parts related to the God of Light Chaos and his inheritance, the rest of the things were explained in a clear and orderly manner.

Saman's mood also fluctuated with Lu Yi's narration. He sighed when he heard the ending that he accidentally awakened the spirit of the elven mother tree.

"The circumstances between people are indeed incomparable."

"I missed so much while I was unconscious," Saman sighed with great regret.

“It’s good enough to be alive.”

Thinking about what the elf Bai told him later, that among the four people who arrived at the elves with them, three escaped, and the only elf blew himself up and died, Lu Yi agreed more deeply that "staying alive is the prerequisite for everything."

Saman obviously thought the same thing as him. After a moment of silence, he said regretfully, "This is the path he chose himself. He may have known from the beginning whether he would live or die."

Lu Yi nodded, "I just sometimes think that his companions will be very sad. He must have had unspeakable struggles and courage before he could make such a decision."

Face death calmly.

What a difficult choice this is.

You have to give up your life, give up everything you have, your family and friends, and the decades you have lived in this world.

"Courage?" Saman could not deny it. "I just think that kind of people are fools. It's useless to talk about anything else when their lives are gone."

Seeing that Lu Yi had no expression on his face, Saman was still worried and said, "Don't learn from him. This kind of meaningless death is another kind of failure! He is extremely irresponsible to himself and the people around him. He is purely for his own obsession."

"I know. Don't worry. I won't do anything stupid. I still want to survive the elves." Lu Yi sighed, "But if I have a blood feud, how can I just use the word obsession to get rid of it?"

Strictly speaking, he also shoulders the blood feud of the Klein family's demise.

However, the forces behind this destruction are complex and intertwined, and it is far from being resolved by simply solving the West Asia issue.

Lu Yi thought of Xiaoshu and Chaos again.

The former has protected the elves for generations, while the latter lives in silence towards death.

It's just that everyone has their own choice. Maybe they are not understood, maybe it seems inexplicable, like an egg against a rock, and maybe it's self-inflicted, but it is the path you choose after all.

That's enough.

Saman glanced at him and said, "You have survived the elves? Then you have to defeat the Pope and become the number one human."

"Well, that doesn't sound impossible."

As Saman spoke, he actually began to seriously consider the probability of Lu Yi surpassing Pope Callisto and becoming the number one human being.

"Although I know this will take a long time, you should still do it as soon as possible. Try to let me benefit from your presence while I am still alive."

"I'll try my best."

Saman nodded contentedly, but his eyes suddenly fell behind him.

"...Did the door of your room move just now?" Saman looked as if he had seen a ghost. "Is there someone hiding in your room?"

"Great, your peach blossoms have blossomed in the elves!"

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.

"no."

Without saying anything, he took Saman to the bedroom and pushed the door open.

Xiaoyi inside the door bumped into Lu Yi's chest due to inertia.

"Papa..."

Samant was struck by lightning, pointing at the little one floating in the air and tremblingly said, "Dad? What does he call you? Dad?!"

"You've only been in the elves for a few days, and you already have a child?!"

It’s over, the future light of the human race is going to be abducted to the elves!

Lu Yi looked at the shocked Saman in silence, and said succinctly: "Do you remember what I just told you? My blood, the new elves that were accidentally produced by the elf tree."

"Oh! That's true." Saman suddenly realized.

Lu Yi stretched out his hand to lift up Xiaoyi, and Xiaoyi lay down in his palm and rubbed his fingers.

Xiaoyi has been following him these days, and the little elf, which was originally the size of a palm, is growing visibly.

"Why do I feel it's a pity for you?"

Saman blinked and said, "Is it so obvious?"

"Do you have any intention of hiding anything?"

"No." Samantha said honestly.

The blond, blue-eyed elf was so cute that Saman couldn't help but reach out his hand, wanting to touch his furry little head.

Unexpectedly, the cute Xiaoyi didn't give Saman any face at all and bit Saman's hand directly with his mouth.

The elf has grown a few small teeth. Although its bite is not very harmful, it still causes slight pain.

Saman deliberately withdrew his hand in an exaggerated manner, "Wow! It hurts so much, whose beast is this!"

It was not known whether Xiaoyi understood or not. He tilted his head back, wrinkled his nose at him with a fierce expression, and let out a low breathing sound.

Saman covered his heart and said to Lu Yi: "Why don't you just acknowledge this cub? I agree to this father-son relationship!"

"Stop teasing Xiaoyi." Lu Yi carefully combed Xiaoyi's fluffy golden hair.

Xiaoyi must have just woken up not long ago. His golden hair was messy from his sleep, but he didn't feel uncomfortable with it blocking his eyes.

When he helped Xiao Yi with his hair, his expression was tender and barely perceptible. Samantha paused and asked, "Are you going to take him to the human race?"

Lu Yi answered without thinking: "Of course not, Xiaoyi is an elf, how can he go back to the human race with us? The elves are his home."

"This child doesn't seem like he can leave you." Saman said as he looked at the unusually clingy state of the little one towards Lu Yi.

Lu Yi said calmly: "I have to leave even if I can't leave."

These human words were too complicated for the elf cubs. Xiaoyi didn't understand a word of it. He just continued to play with Lu Yi's fingers while smiling brightly.

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on."

Lu Yi was not in the mood to chat, so Saman tactfully avoided the topic and asked, "So when do we plan to leave?"

The mission items have been successfully obtained, and the two people who set out together have met again. Their journey to the Elf Forest should come to an end and end successfully.

Lu Yi gently touched Xiaoyi's soft golden hair.

"We'll set off tomorrow."

…

As expected, the elves tried hard to keep them, but Lu Yi was determined to leave. After repeated attempts to keep him failed, the elves had no choice but to see Lu Yi off.

The number of elves who came to see him off was far greater than Lu Yi had imagined.

Such a scene seemed a bit too grand for a farewell ceremony. Almost all the surviving elves were present in person, and most of the faces were completely unfamiliar to Lu Yi.

But they all came specially to see him off.

Ta stood in front of the two men, with a group of elven elders behind him.

The elder book man nags: "Lu Yi, you must come to the Elf Forest often in the future... Xiaoyi will definitely cry if he can't find you when he wakes up, but this little guy's temper has improved a lot now, I hope he won't torture us for too long, haha... You must remember to come and play with us from time to time, and if you encounter anything that the elves can help with, you must tell us..."

"Come on, talk less. I've heard you nagging endlessly!" Elder Ling interrupted Elder Shu and handed the paper bag in his hand to Lu Yi.

"Small cookies, they can satisfy your cravings along the way."

"Thank you!" Lu Yi and Saman said in unison.

The elder smiled broadly, "We should thank you. If it weren't for Lu Yi, the elves would have become history this time."

"No, the elves are a race favored by the gods, and the Elf Mother Tree always protects the Elf Forest."

After the elders finished speaking, the Elf King took off the ring in his hand.

After the mother tree lost its arm, the tower was connected with a mechanical arm that was built overnight.

Because the metal was dark, cold and hard, the Elf King began to wear gloves.

The white silk gloves wrapped tightly around his palms and part of his forearms, and there was no sign that there was any cold machinery underneath the gloves.

Ta put the ring he had just taken off on Lu Yi's hand and said, "It's just a small token of my appreciation. Please don't reject me, Lu Yi."

Although he did not check it immediately, the faint fluctuation of magic power in the air was enough for Lu Yi to realize that this space ring must be filled to the brim.

Ta smiled, "It would be great if you like it."

"I like it very much! God of Light, may your Majesty realize your dream soon and lead the elves to glory."

"God of Light, Lu Yi, may you have a safe journey."

"Goodbye, Your Majesty!"

"Goodbye, Lu Yi."
