"Wait a minute," Peddick quickly intervened. "That's not the case. They just look fierce, just like the paper tiger the Dark God mentioned. A paper tiger only looks fierce, but it's actually harmless. Don't mind it, King."
Dark elves: "..."
You are the paper tiger, your whole family is a paper tiger.
A dark elf managed to soften his expression and said, "The leader is right. King, please come in."
"Thank you." Tang hesitated for a moment, took Lin Su's hand and followed the dark elf leading the way into the jungle.
The moment he stepped in, Tang almost thought he saw the Elf Forest in the night.
The trees in the Eternal Night Forest are very tall and somewhat twisted, with vines entwined around them. Demonic energy is everywhere, and you can faintly hear the strange roars of beasts, which looks particularly terrifying.
But the jungle belonging to the dark elves was well-maintained. The redundant vines and branches were trimmed cleanly, and tree houses were hung on them.
Even though the color of the tree house is not as lush and green as the branches and leaves in the Elf Forest, its appearance is exactly the same as the Elf Forest.
Elves like tree houses and forests, and even after becoming dark elves, they still retain the same preferences.
"You guys cleaned up really nicely." Tang said as he looked at them.
In fact, they are also elves. Even if they are infected by evil spirits, they are still cute and kind elves. Anyone can despise and be afraid of them, but the king should be the most tolerant of their existence. He is the only one who cannot be afraid of or despise them.
"Does the king like it here?" a dark elf came forward and asked.
Although it is a bit dark here, the tree houses are decorated with lights, making them look warm and comfortable.
Tang nodded seriously: "I like it here, and I like you too."
The dark elves who had been following were all stunned where they were, with an extremely sour feeling in their hearts. They had gotten used to it over the years, but when their beautiful and pure king said that he loved them, the pain in their hearts seemed to be soothed with a slight sour feeling.
The dark elves invited them into the tree house. A group of elves gathered together, and one dark elf presented them with a plate of bright and juicy fruits. He said, "This fruit has been well-protected and is free of demonic energy. The king can try some."
Tang took one and took a bite, his eyes narrowed as he said, "So sweet, thank you."
Lin said that any plant that entered the Eternal Night Forest would be contaminated with demonic energy. The dark elves had long been unable to touch the Fountain of Life, and the fruits they ate were also contaminated with demonic energy. It would take a lot of effort to bring such a fruit without any demonic energy into the Forest of Elves. It was obvious that they were specially prepared for him.
"As long as the king likes it." A dark elf couldn't help but smile, but when Tang looked over, he quickly stopped smiling and pretended to be cold and ruthless.
But this time, Tang smiled at him, and her already beautiful eyes curved into crescent shapes, making it impossible for the surrounding dark elves to keep a straight face anymore.
The king is so cute! I really want to kill that dark god and get the king back.
They thought it was cute, and Lin Su also thought it was cute, so he did what the dark elves wanted to do but couldn't do, and reached out and pinched the cheek.
Tang looked at him doubtfully, and Lin Su smiled and said, "Tangtang is so cute."
Tang's face flushed slightly: "Lin is also pretty."
Dark elves: "..."
They want to pinch it too!
The matter of the dark elves was settled, but when Lin Su sent Tang back to the Elf Forest, he was met with countless cold stares and extremely cold attitudes from the Irish priests.
"King, it would be great if you could stay in the Elf Forest. Here you can find your favorite fruits and the fountain of life. How can Peddick take good care of you? Besides, the guys there are not good guys. They may bully you." The Irish priest said patiently.
He really didn't expect that after he finally let go of his worries and allowed the king to have a relationship with Theodore, this guy took the king back to the Eternal Night Forest and took advantage of him. The most important thing was that the group of dark elves not only didn't want to come back, but also wanted to abduct the king away.
"I don't need the elves to take care of me. Lin will take good care of me." Tang held his hand and smiled, "Lin is very powerful. There will be no shortage of life-giving water and fruit there."
"But the elves will be sad if they know." The Irish priest was reluctant to let him leave.
"But I want to be with Lin, and he can't enter the Elf Forest..." Tang hesitated.
"He can come in. I think the elves will agree." Ireland heard his words and took his hand. "Stay in the Elf Forest with him. Anyway, there was nothing wrong with him after all the years he spent there."
Tang stared at him blankly, and suddenly thought that if he had told Lin earlier that he was leaving, perhaps the Elf Forest would have accepted Lin sooner. "Irish Priest, you should ask the elves. I will stay with Peddick and the others in the Evernight Forest for a while, and then return to the Elf Forest when Lin is free. It's settled, Irish Priest, I'm leaving."
He slipped away very quickly after he finished speaking. Ireland looked at his back and felt that the king had become cunning and sly by those guys after only a few days in the Evernight Forest. If he stayed there for too long, would his pure Elf King be able to come back?
Facts have proved that the worry is quite necessary. The light elves are simple by nature, and many of the reasons are that they do not interact with the outside world and have little experience. Tang lives with Lin Su in the City of Eternal Night, where he will not only meet the dark elves, but also those legendary dark high priests who are known for their murderous tendencies.
For example, Todd, the dark god Troy, the orc Beck, and Katie...
No matter how vicious they appeared in front of others, they carefully restrained their ferocity in front of Tang, so as not to be crushed to death by the Dark God. However, ferocity was not something that could be concealed just by wanting to. In the City of Eternal Night, Tang more or less caught a glimpse of some scenes that he could not see in the Forest of Elves.
And when they gain more experience, even elves will grow rapidly.
Tang was indeed not used to seeing those scenes at first, so much so that even the sweet nectar could not relieve his discomfort, but he knew that what Lin would show him was far from the truly cruel side of the Eternal Night City.
"Tang, how did you make Lord Theodore fall in love with you?" Baker squatted on a chair beside him, wagging his tail, smiling with his sharp fangs showing, looking soft and harmless.
Tang couldn't help but look at his trembling ears and tail. It was the first time he had seen an orc. When he heard his question, he said, "I don't know either."
He still doesn't know why Lin likes him, but as long as the result is good, it's fine.
