Chapter 386 Going to the Dark Elf Territory
There were two big tear bubbles hanging in the corners of the goblin cub's eyes. He let go of Shu Li's hair in disappointment and looked at him pitifully.
Shu Li couldn't bear it and almost agreed.
However, there was still a lot to do tonight, so he could only cruelly refuse the cub.
"You can sleep with Disio and the others." Shu Li decisively betrayed his companions. "Kumandi has painted a lot."
When the goblin cubs heard about the painting, their eyes lit up and they all flew towards Kumandi.
Kumandi was concentrating on eating fruit when he was suddenly surrounded by more than 20 cubs. He put down his fork in surprise.
Shu Li took the opportunity to turn around and run away.
He was going to the Elf Cub Courtyard.
Since returning from the Magic Academy, he has had no time to communicate with the Mother Tree. Now that everyone is having fun in the hall, it is a good opportunity for him to chat with the Mother Tree.
He quietly slipped out of the palace, turned into a tiny creature, flapped his gauze-like wings, and flew in the air like a firefly.
A few minutes later, Shu Li came to the mother tree, looked at the fruits hanging on the branches, flew over to touch them and greeted them one by one.
After reminiscing with the fruits, he sat on a branch and said to the mother tree, "Oenomisis, here I come."
Starlight twinkled in the air, condensing into a green shadow, which was the Elf Mother Tree.
Shu Li looked at her carefully and found that her shadow was not as solid as before. He frowned and asked, "Do you need me to purify you?"
The mother tree shook her head: "It's useless to cleanse my master."
Shu Li pursed her lips: "Okay."
The branch of Vanaku is the crux of the matter; purification can only begin there. But after more than twenty years, is it safe to travel to the Dark Elves' territory now?
Wouldn't he be discovered and besieged by the dark elves as soon as he showed up?
Although he is now a Dharma Saint, he still dares not let his guard down when he is alone deep in the enemy camp.
Better safe than sorry.
Having lived on the tenth floor of the Snow Mountain Maze for eighty-five years, I know one thing very well: don't rely on luck in everything, otherwise one wrong step will lead to eternal damnation.
The enemy will not give you any chance to correct your mistakes.
Shu Li raised his concerns, and the mother tree looked at him kindly.
"You've grown up, Sperian."
The youthfulness fades away, and the charm of previous lives is gradually revealed, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.
Facing such a Sperian, I wonder if Fries can control himself.
Shu Li smiled and said, "Of course, I'm an adult!"
After the greetings, the mother tree told him about the changes that had taken place over the years.
When Shu Li didn't show up for three months, the mother tree knew that he was trapped in the snow mountain maze.
The light power of the storage roots is only enough to last for half a year. After half a year, it will be unsustainable and its branches will be eroded by the dark power again.
In order to protect the main trunk, she acted decisively and put most of the completely purified roots into a dormant state, in a state of suspended animation, to deceive the power of darkness.
Plans to cleanse the root systems of the Enkak area and the Unibal swamps have been temporarily shelved.
Anyway, since Sperian hasn't returned yet, there's no rush to look for the Earth Spirit.
The Palace of the Earth God is right there, you can't run away.
The remaining power of light in the branches of the mother tree was used to resist the dark power that was eroding it. After struggling for twenty-two years, when it was about to be exhausted, Sperian returned.
After Shu Li learned about the situation, he couldn't help but feel scared.
If he had come back any later, the mother tree would probably have been beaten back to its original form and turned into the neurotic "kidnapper" it was at the beginning.
"Is it appropriate for me to go to Wanaku now?" Shu Li asked in a low voice.
Without further ado, he wanted to go to Wanaku immediately to check the condition of the branches and fruits.
In the past twenty-two years, countless dark elf cubs were born.
Although I feel a little regretful about going to the Snow Mountain Maze to look for the Water Spirit first, but everything has its gains and losses. The regret has already been made, and I can only try my best to make up for it.
I hope that Efit has taught the dark elf cubs well over the years to prevent them from becoming minions of the Dark Elf King.
The mother tree asked, "Are you sure you want to go now?"
Shu Li looked up at the bright moon hanging in the night sky and converted the time in Wanaku.
There is a twelve-hour difference between the Elf Kingdom and Vanaku, so it should be eight or nine in the morning by now.
"Yes." Shu Li nodded, "I want to explore the way first."
The mother tree closed its eyes slightly and sensed the situation on the other side through its huge root system underground.
After a while, she opened her eyes and said, "You only have ten minutes."
Shu Li clenched his fist: "That's enough."
He flapped his wings and drilled into the trunk of the mother tree and entered the root space.
After the figures of the mother tree and other little goblins disappeared, their shadows faded.
Shu Li was guided by the mother tree to Wanaku. When a huge dark force hit him, he knew he had arrived.
Suppressing the feeling of nausea, he carefully poked his head out from the main branch of the mother tree, looked around vigilantly, and quietly released his perception.
The Sage's perception range is wide, and in an instant, the entire courtyard is within his "field of vision."
Very good, there are no dark elves nearby, so he can purify the mother tree with confidence.
The fruit dared not move for the time being, and first supplied the branches with the power of light to restore the dormant roots.
Shu Li crawled nimbly along the branches, hid under a leaf, and looked up at the fruits on the branches.
When I saw this, I was stunned.
Wow, there are so many more fruits!
In the past, he came to purify the trees every day, which reduced the speed at which the mother trees bore fruit, from 15 or 16 fruits a year to 3 or 4.
If the purification continues, the branches of the mother tree may stop producing dark elf fruits.
This way, if he steals one, there will be one less here.
Until all of them were stolen, leaving no fruit for the dark elves.
Unfortunately, he was trapped in a snowy mountain maze for more than 20 years, and his plan was aborted.
The branches were densely covered with gray-green fruits, and a rough count showed nearly three hundred of them.
Shu Li took a deep breath and took out his magic wand.
Anyway, let’s do the purification work first!
Now that he is a magic saint, his purification speed is fast. He steals as many fruits as possible to increase the number of white elf cubs.
“Swish, swish, swish—”
He waved his magic wand, and tiny balls of light as small as beads shot into the branched trunk of the mother tree.
Concentration is the essence.
Although the light ball is small in size, it contains pure power of light. One light ball can purify a high-level magic soldier.
Of course, after the high-level demon soldiers are "purified", there is only one result, and that is death.
Twenty small balls of light were released in succession, and the mother tree spoke out to stop them.
'Sperian, that's enough.'
Shu Li put down his magic wand, tilted his head, stared at the fruits on the branches, and wondered whether to pick a few for purification.
Suddenly, his perception fluctuated. He quickly stopped breathing and lay on a high branch to look down at the tree.
A dark elf stepped into the yard.
Not Efit.
Shu Li's perception was lurking near the other party.
When the dark elf walked under the branches of the mother tree, Shu Li saw his appearance clearly.
He is a young dark elf, probably underage.
His facial features seemed familiar, possibly a dark elf he knew.
Shu Li searched his mind and quickly matched the face of a young boy with his.
It was the dark elf cub adopted by Efit, named Luke.
Luke took out a notebook and counted the fruits expressionlessly.
Shu Li blinked in confusion.
Did Luke take over Ephet's job?
So where did Efit go?
[Eumesis, do you know where Ephet is?]
He asked the mother tree in his mind.
"Efit was sent to Cecilia by the Dark Elf King."
[What? Why send him there?]
Shu Li was shocked.
The King of Cecilia is a warmongerer. Is it safe for Efit to go there?
"Efit is an excellent pharmacist." The mother tree stopped there.
Shu Li frowned.
War requires a lot of medicine.
In other words, Efit was forced to go to Cecilia as a pharmacist and become Denton Trick's pharmaceutical tool.
Efit certainly didn't volunteer.
He is a dark elf, and even if he remains sane, he cannot disobey the orders of the Dark Elf King.
hateful!
Shu Li clenched his fists.
He must rescue Efit and free him from the control of the Dark Elf King.
After Luke finished recording, he put away his notebook and turned to leave the yard.
Shu Li silently looked at his departing back, and suddenly, he opened his eyes wide.
The thing Luke is wearing on his ear...isn't it the wind chime he gave to Efit before?
Wind chimes have telephone functions and can transmit sound over short distances.
Why did Efit give the wind chime to Luke?
Does this mean Luke can be trusted?
After Shu Li and Lujia left, they drilled into the branches of the mother tree and teleported back to the Elf Kingdom through the root system.
There is ample time.
Wait until you are absolutely sure before making the next plan.
After getting out of the trunk of the mother tree, Shu Li spread his wings and stretched his limbs. Just as he was about to fly down from the branch, he suddenly felt a familiar sight.
He looked down and looked into a pair of emerald green eyes.
It's the Elf King.
"King~"
He called softly and flew towards him happily.
"Why are you here?"
Shu Li landed on the Elf King's outstretched palm and shook her ears unconsciously.
The Elf King touched his cheek with his fingertips and said gently, "I'll take you back to bed."
"Well?"
Shu Li's small body stiffened.
The Elf King spoke so naturally that he couldn't tell whether "sleep" was a noun or a verb.
