"It's troublesome."

Louis frowned.

Each of the seven plagues is not easy to deal with.

A dark night evil god made Lao Deng lose his last resort and was forced to be imprisoned on the golden toilet~ oh no, on the golden throne.

A serpent circling the universe forced the major powers to send most of the demigods and legends who could move to the Kingdom of Monai.

Even his soul was eventually destroyed, but it was only when the God of Glory and Justice suddenly descended into his sea of ​​consciousness that he was completely eliminated.

A dark side of the god of love caused the various churches to suffer, and the Roxy Empire fought desperately, and finally ended the dark side of the god of love in the ruins.

But there is still the hidden danger of the twins of love and desire.

It is even possible that the twins of love and lust may lead to the fall of the god of love in the future. It is still unknown whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the end.

Among the seven disasters of this level, there are still four.

The thing in the Golden City is definitely not just a divine evil.

In other words, if it was just a pure divine evil, he would find it a little simpler.

It's nothing more than firing a cannon and bombing his mother.

He actually felt that it was much simpler to rely solely on strength.

Just crush the opponent into pieces.

But the problem is that relying solely on strength is not enough.

He looked at Olivia and said, "Be careful over there. Don't get too close to the Golden Country. There are some issues with the things in the Golden Country."

"The last time you and the Roxy people suppressed the mad goblins, it seemed that you came into contact with the Golden Country?"

Louis nodded.

The last time Quiet Forest was in trouble, they cried out for the Rockxi Empire to clean up their mess. Louis thought that he couldn't let his allies get into trouble, so he went to help.

...I thought that if something happened to Roxy, Helmer would march straight into Enther.

Then he will be the one who feels uneasy.

He thought very clearly.

Roxy was too close to Unser.

Once their defenses had problems, the creatures on the other side of the space channel would flood into the plains around Enser, and both the White Crow Legion dedicated to defense and the other assault legions would go crazy.

If we want to defend the border, we may have to send out even the Cursed Legion.

So Louis chose to fight.

It is one thing for Roxy to have a good relationship with Unther, but it is another thing to keep the war out of the Empire.

So when he learned that there was also trouble in the quiet forest next door, he took further action.

Roxy and his gang from Groove are really unlucky guys.

First there was the big sin of jealousy, then the devil Hermos landed, and then there was the Golden City thing.

They have been the most unlucky ones in recent years.

To be honest, if he hadn't nipped the risk to the empire in the bud, it might not just be the Rockhi people who are in chaos now.

A glimpse of Ense’s situation in his previous life can give you a glimpse of the whole picture.

Beatrice's death, Olivia's wandering, his execution on the guillotine, and even the Libra Saint leading the rebels into the capital were all most likely part of the plan.

None of the problems that arise from this are good.

The time when he saw the goblin, he also rushed to see what the seven disasters of the Golden Country were like before they passed.

At that time, when I saw all those goblins coming out in droves, I didn’t think it was a big deal.

Low-level combat power is not a threat to the Cursed Legion.

Give the Cursed Legion some time and they will be able to kill them all themselves.

But it wasn't until they got closer and closer to the Golden Country that he realized something was wrong.

This was one of the rare times when Louis could clearly sense the area of ​​threat.

From the moment he set foot on the land of the Golden Country, he felt a faint sense of malice spreading.

He could even hear the whispers of the abyss, which were constantly tempting him to enter it.

He thought for a moment and said, "The problem with the Golden Country may be somewhat related to the Abyss, but for the specific situation, I'm afraid we'll have to ask the elves back then.

Again, that group of long-eared people went deep into the Golden Country and took away many things from it, but no one knows what the Golden Country is like. "

"Where is Mentor Merlin?" Olivia frowned.

Mentor Merlin is the mentor that comes with Louis Eternal Blade.

As he was a high-ranking elf many years ago, he might know something.

But Louis shook his head and said:

"Even Mentor Merlin doesn't know about the Golden Country."

Although Mentor Merlin never gave any detailed information about his life, Louis knew from his daily conversations with him that Merlin was probably a master who rose to prominence in the late period of the Elf Kingdom.

It was already the twilight of the Age of the Elf.

The time when the main god of elves ascended to godhood was many years ago.

Even he didn't quite understand the situation, he only knew one thing.

That is, there is a great terror buried in the Golden City, so much so that the elves who originally had no moral integrity and planned to let the Golden City run wild had to choose to fight with it actively.

The biggest runaway incident in the history of the Golden Country can be said to have further shaken the foundation of the already troubled Elf Empire.

It can even be said that the Age of Elfs only lasted a short time before it ended abruptly, which was also related to the Golden Country back then.

Thinking of this, Louis looked at Olivia.

Olivia subconsciously shielded her small body and said cautiously, "What? I'm not in the Empire."

She is still commanding the battle in Meyer's floating city.

Louis' mouth twitched slightly, and he said helplessly, "What I mean is, after this operation is over, why don't you go to the High Forest and the Hidden Forest?"

"Investigate the situation in the Golden Country back then?"

"Well, remember to create a clone."

"Um?"

"Go to both countries at the same time, don't give them a chance to react, ask them directly about the situation, and compare their statements."

"How come even the confession came out?"

"I don't believe them."

Louis said calmly.

He has no filter for elves.

A group of guys who were able to sacrifice a large number of their compatriots and turn them into ogres, after leaving the dungeon, they blamed the ogres.

At that time, all countries really thought that the elves had dealt with the pollution in the dungeon internally.

What happened? Not long after they came out, these guys started to attack various countries.

It can be said that this group of long-eared people were organized and premeditated, and even had the help of some thieves outside the dungeon before they started their actions.

In the early years, the Eternal Blade was madly maintaining justice throughout the continent. You could say that those elves were noble.

But understand one thing...

What on earth did they do to deserve the loss of so many of their compatriots' lives in order to gain a good reputation among so many races?

You have to know that they were already the overlords of the era at that time.

So it can only be explained...

These elves are very dirty.

It's not just dirty.

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.

Given the means of the elves, are they really willing to invest so much manpower and resources just to suppress the Golden Country? Don't be ridiculous.

You should know that the term "elf" was originally used to refer to fairies.

The elves, however, took over the title and never gave it back to the goblins.

"Olivia, have you digested the book I read?"

"Hmm? I've almost digested it."

Gao Jiezhiyu was able to share his knowledge with Olivia, and now Olivia's knowledge system can be said to be extremely complete.

She was one of the most learned people in the entire empire.

She can even continue to develop new things based on this knowledge.

All the spell configurations and targeted equipment of the Rainbow team were created under her leadership.

It can be said that among his several lovers, Little Swan has the strongest R&D capabilities.

So Louis said: "Do you remember that there was a ritual called the "Replacement Ritual"?

"Oh, are you talking about the ritual magic developed by the Illithids back then?"

"right."

The "Replacement Ritual" is an extremely cruel magic ritual developed by the Illithids to help young Illithids survive the most dangerous period.

This magical ritual can transform the mind flayer into an invisible and intangible spiritual shadow and implant it into the brains of other races.

In fact, from the moment the parasites are implanted in the brain, they are already dead.

The living ones are actually [dolls] controlled by the mind flayer.

Even the young mind flayers that were implanted into the bodies of other races were unaware that they were mind flayers.

This is a fairly advanced form of self-defense.

For example.

To put it bluntly, even a big guy who can read minds cannot detect the true form of these mind-sucking monsters.

Because the substitution ritual really made the young mind flayers lose their memories of being mind flayers.

They may become heroes to other races, or they may become notorious villains.

They steal the lives of others, constantly accumulating experience, until one day...

With a bang.

Those qualifications turned into nourishment, exploding the seeds of spiritual energy in their bodies.

At that moment, they will realize their true identity.

The experience accumulated by plundering the lives of others will become the nourishment that drives the psychic's level up.

Some mind flayers can even be promoted to legendary status through this.

"You mean, Fairy Melody's way of plundering other people's bodies is likely to be a higher-level substitution ritual?"

However, what greeted her was Louis' long silence.

After a moment, Olivia also fell silent, her expression becoming serious.

“No way…”

"Who knows?"

Louis knew that Olivia had guessed what he was thinking.

He whispered, "During the Elven Age, one of the things the elves did most was to burn records about goblins on a large scale, right?"

Olivia nodded and said, "Yes. Over the past few thousand years, many people have only heard of fairies in fairy tales, and even believe that such a race does not exist in reality."

"So," Louis said faintly, "Olivia, humans rose too late, and there are not many records of the era when fairies were active. You know this."

"Yeah." Olivia's smile became more forced. "Did you get any news from somewhere else?"

"Well, the Dragon Empire told me that the Emerald Dragon God allowed me to go to the Emerald Dream and obtain the inheritance of dragons."

The dragon heritage is undoubtedly a very precious treasure of knowledge.

The vast majority of races with dragon blood are not qualified to enter the Emerald Dream, which stores the inherited memories of dragons.

But Louis is different.

With his current status and position, he even needs the Emerald Dragon God to come to him specifically to do him a favor.

He didn't refuse.

As a race that had been the overlords of the era before the Elves' Era, the knowledge they had accumulated was richer than one could imagine, greatly satisfying their greedy desire for knowledge.

Among them are records about the goblins that are much more complete than those about humans.

Louis narrowed his eyes and said, “In the days when fairies were still called elves, the ancient world tree gave birth to them.

The elves born from the buds of the World Tree flapped their wings, making the flowers, plants and trees more luxuriant.

The elves flew to the farmlands and called for a good harvest.

It flew to the tree trunk and gave birth to fruit.

The power of the Elf Corridor flickers on the wings flapping behind them. Some powerful elves are even born with the ability to make wishes.

Those are the little dragon cubs. They occasionally fantasize that an elf with the ability to grant wishes could fly into their cave and help them realize their dream of growing up quickly.

This is the natural born magician, the elf under the world tree."

Olivia broke out in a cold sweat:

"The long-eared ones were most famous for their archery skills. The elf archers had an extremely long range and were very scary."

"Yes, at least one thing is certain, when the countries first went to war with the elves, the elves did not use magic.

Until one day, they suddenly showed extremely strong magical abilities, and the situation began to turn one-sided."

Olivia wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "The most obvious labels that later generations have of elves are that they are good at archery and magic and that they care about the environment. There are even many unofficial histories that say that elves were first born under the World Tree."

"A race that has lost its home still hopes to have a rare thing like the World Tree? If they had this thing, they wouldn't have been wandering in the star realm back then."

"So they stole the goblins' power?"

"I'm afraid it's more than just stealing."

The myth that the long-eared elves were born under the world tree has been circulated among various races, but the elves have never acknowledged it.

But the fact that these myths are so widely circulated among all major races at least reflects one thing: the elves once made a strong claim to this at some point in time.

Although most races did not live as long as they did, and no one remembers the strong claims they made in the past, what they said and did in the past have been passed down in the form of legends.

The most obvious point is...

Many people believe that elves are fairies in fairy tales.

"They used some method similar to the 'Replacement Ritual' to steal the power, name and even origin of the fairies, and took away the power of the World Tree and the God of Growth and Forests?"

Olivia sighed.

If it is true as Louis guessed, then what the long-eared people did is not a question of whether it is dirty or not.

Genocide is nothing more than this.

Even the little swan had some terrifying thoughts in his mind.

"What if, I mean what if... what if the current situation in the Golden Country is caused by the elves, what should we do?"

Then she saw Louis' deep eyes and the slightly raised corners of his mouth.

"Then don't blame me for personally sending all the main forces of the elves to the front line."

He actually had darker thoughts.

Can the trolls alone absorb all the desperate wails after the destruction of the world?

If the trolls were just geckos with their tails cut off, then the polluting power after the destruction of the world would most likely have been dispersed to other places.

...the Elf God who almost went mad and fell, and the strange existence in the Golden City.

He took a deep breath and said, "Olivia, you have to be prepared."

"Um?"

"I might be able to use the Crown of Soul Desire to teleport directly to you and communicate with them in person."
