Chapter 613 The Humble People of Great Xia
"Grandpa Berlick, is that sea of stars our World Tree...?"
"I don't know Delin either. Although I saw the World Tree in the Royal City twenty years ago, according to my great-great-grandfather, the World Tree has never appeared in the Star Sea since it left Oslo..."
"It's so beautiful! I really want to go see it right now. Our Ghent tribe doesn't even have a Tree of Life..."
Delin of the Ghent tribe was a handsome elven boy. His star-blue eyes were fixed on the magnificent sea of stars in the distance, his face full of longing.
The Ghent tribe lived in a remote, desolate southern region. This time, he came to Silvermoon City with his grandfather Berlik, hoping to broaden his horizons. Little did he expect that he would join the army in the greatest feat of the elves in hundreds of years.
"Hold your gun tight and follow in the footsteps of the adults. You will see the World Tree. Believe me, Delin, the elves are truly about to rise, and we tribes without noble blood will finally have the opportunity to realize our dreams."
"I remember Grandpa Berlik. I will work hard, and our Ghent tribe will have our own World Tree in the future!" Delin nodded vigorously, as if a strong confidence permeated his underage body, and in his hand he tightly gripped a ferocious heavy sniper rifle.
When Nelia first launched her counterattack on the royal city, she only had a mixed force of 50,000 Silvermoon Clan members and other ordinary tribes. But by the time she reached the core area, she had an army of 70,000 to 80,000.
As the elven army pressed forward with unwavering resolve, the enemy's resistance grew increasingly fierce, and the number of elven casualties skyrocketed. However, Nelia found herself with an ever-growing number of soldiers at her disposal.
Those tribes that had been holding back saw a glimmer of hope for victory and began to converge from all directions outside the core area. Under the cover of artillery and riflemen, they unleashed a powerful attack. As the evil black castles were destroyed one by one, the Ironblood warriors, now devoid of the evil aura, were no longer able to stop a group of fanatical elite elven warriors.
"Aunt Luna, we're less than ten miles from the royal city! I can hardly believe it's real..." Nelia looked through her binoculars at the distant royal city walls shrouded in a thin black mist. Even she, who could command tens of thousands of troops with composure, couldn't hide her excitement.
"Of course, my prophetic talent is unique. Back then, Qi Lina and the others laughed at me for talking nonsense all day long. Humph! If it weren't for my good son, she would have withered away along with the World Tree!" Luna would be very proud and a little arrogant whenever she mentioned Qin Mo.
"Oh!...Aunt, did you foresee that Qin Mo would come back to save you?"
"Of course, if I hadn't accurately predicted that Qin Mo would be the savior of the elves, I wouldn't have bothered looking for a human partner."
"Huh?...I see...So you don't like him at all?" Nelia exclaimed in surprise. She had always thought that Luna and Qin Lan's marriage was a romantic story, but now it didn't seem so wonderful!
"No, that's not it. Originally, I just wanted to get closer to him and see what he was really like. If he was too weak, I wouldn't have bothered with him. But... later I realized he wasn't bad. The people of Great Xia are different from us elves and people of the Western Continent..."
Luna's face showed a nostalgic expression. "The people of Daxia are humble. They don't present their most glamorous side to you like animals courting. The longer you spend with them, the more good qualities you'll discover..."
Nelia nodded silently, completely agreeing with Luna's words. After getting to know Qin Mo, just as Luna had said, the longer she spent with Qin Mo, the more she would discover that he was actually more outstanding than she had imagined. Moreover, he would always surprise her at the right time, making her both jealous and admiring of him.
"So, do you think Qin Mo is the kind of person I'm talking about?"
“Oh! He… is indeed extraordinary… but he has many flaws, Aunt. Look how lecherous he is, and how stingy he is. He actually…” Nelia paused and whispered, “He actually murdered Campbell. How audacious of him!”
"Since you dislike Qin Mo so much, then your aunt won't force you. I've asked my son about it these past few days, and all my daughters-in-law are no ordinary people—a holy maiden from the Holy Temple, a queen of the Sea Clan, and at the very least, a princess from Fusang. Since he's so likable, I won't worry about him anymore. Perhaps..."
Luna glanced at Nelia and said calmly yet meaningfully, "Perhaps when you see Qin Mo again, he will have already found me a pure-blooded elf daughter-in-law!"
"........"
Nelia suddenly felt a strange, inexplicable confusion, and by the time she came to her senses, Luna was already gone.
Luna stood there quietly, carefully pondering Luna's words, and before she knew it, a long time had passed.
"Eudora!"
"Your Highness, what are your orders?"
"Isn't Beren supposed to carry on Campbell's legacy and prove that the Sunmoon Clan truly deserves to be called the noble elven royal family? Go tell them now that they can begin their attack!"
“Yes, I’ll have them prepare right away. We’ll arrange their first wave of attacks tomorrow morning.” Eudora agreed and was about to give the order.
"No, I mean now, understand? Also, get the artillery units to support them."
