Alien world

Chapter 1114 36. Safety and Insecurity
On the other hand, how powerful would the Thirteen Supreme Kings be if they could drive such an elf out of power and become the protagonist of the new era?
At this moment, Annan suddenly became like the boy who had been pursuing Miss Knight and suddenly realized that the sister next door who was fair-skinned, beautiful and never short of money had a special identity. He realized that the empire still had a lot of wealth and secrets waiting for him to discover - and he had done nothing except to curry favor with the ancestor!

But from another perspective, perhaps it is precisely because Annan did not take advantage of his relationship with his ancestors that they were able to maintain this relationship.

Annan recovered from the shock and followed Ariana and Skeleton King towards the Verdant City.

The outermost part of the basin is a paradise for wild beasts and their companion species. Unicorns, which are hard to see outside, appear here in groups. In the area where the grassland and the forest meet, fairies, tree elves, and elven dragons wander around, which are beautiful and lively creatures. In the forest called Evanas, there are only elves left.

High elves, blood elves, night elves, wood elves, wind elves...Except for the dark elves, you can find all the elven races in the Verdant City.

The number of elves has always been small, probably not even as large as the population of a human kingdom. But at least they can be seen everywhere in the Green City.

Their overly tall stature always meant that Annan could only see pairs of long legs when he admired the buildings. Perhaps it was because elves never bowed their heads - or perhaps it was because the legendary aura of the Skeleton King made them dare not offend, so they did not notice Annan.

The lush foliage, blooming flowers, and exquisite buildings all mixed together reminded Annan of some familiar images. After a little recollection, he remembered that it was the March Celebration of the Flower City.

However, compared to the Verdant City, the Flower City Celebration is just like a poor parody that has not learned any of the essence.

Aliana led Annan to the outskirts of the Green City. The scenery here was beautiful, and you could enjoy the whole view of the basin by looking up, but it was also the farthest place from the World Tree.

All guests were accommodated in this area.

Annan chose a tree house next to the Skeleton King. The left side and the back were temporarily empty, but the front house was occupied by a king from the eastern Middle-earth.

"The celebration will begin in five days. You can choose a familiar elf to be your guide."

"I choose Yirui..." Annan stopped talking halfway.

No... It's dangerous enough that Irelanzer sneaked in in the middle of the night. What's the difference between that and putting the sapphire in front of Ilimayas or the female ratman in front of Annan!
"Can I choose anyone?"

"As long as she wants to."

"I choose you."

The soul fire in the Skeleton King's eyes flickered a few times, but he did not move away.

Aliana stared at Annan: "Why me?"

"Although you are cold, arrogant, and like to make fun of me, I can feel that you have a heart that is cold on the outside but warm on the inside."

Aliana continued to stare at Annan, and nodded when he was about to change his mind: "Okay, I'll be your guide."

She left temporarily to inform the elders about her role as a guide.

Annan climbed up the stairs of the tree house. There was a wave of magic behind him, and Annan, who was still climbing the stairs, suddenly floated up and followed the Skeleton King to the tree house in front of the tree canopy.

It is nominally a tree house, but it is spacious enough for elves who are over 1.8 meters tall. Annan will not feel cramped at all - especially when he pushes open the wooden window filled with fragrance, and sees the World Tree through the gaps between the leaves. Even the devil would probably forget the idea of ​​"what to burn today" and immerse himself in it - and then be driven by the chaotic attribute to come up with the crazy idea of ​​burning down the World Tree.

Speaking of which...did the elves invite the devil?
Annan was about to ask the Skeleton King, but it stood outside the tree house as if it was afraid that the soul fire would ignite it, and did not come in. It said first: "Annan, you are still young, and you don't understand the elves' loyalty to their partners... They almost only look for one partner in their entire lives, and will not accept sharing a spouse with others. You-"

"You think too much, Mr. Skeleton King." Annan explained quickly: "I just need a suitable guide. Instructor Aliana has never left the Aldo Forest since she was born, so she must know this place better."

"It better be this way."

Before Annan could ask about the demon, Skeleton King returned to his tree house. It seemed to be an illusion, but Annan seemed to feel from Skeleton King's soul fire the emotion that only fans would have, such as "Didn't Jack love Rose? Why did he become a vampire and be with Elizabeth?"

Did even the Skeleton King misunderstand him?
The prejudice of warlocks is terrible...

Ariana came back not long after she left, and left again not long after she came back, leaving only a leaf for Annan - not the leaf of the World Tree, but a leaf that could make a whistle sound.

Just blow it when Annan needs her.

After collecting the leaves, Annan did not go anywhere. He moved a chair in front of the window and sat by the window watching the changes of the World Tree from afternoon to dusk and then to evening.

Irelanze arrived as expected after sunset.

After the customary hug, Annan tried to struggle, but found that he still couldn't push Irilanze away.

After all, he had only eaten the fruit for a week, while the elf mentor had been eating it for more than a thousand years.

"I can't... breathe... anymore..." Annan patted Irilanze, and she reluctantly let go of him.

Annan gasped and said, "During training, Instructor Aliana gave me a purple fruit that can increase my strength and magic power. What is that?"

"You should be talking about the fruit of the first intention."

"Is it precious?"

"you want?"

"Ah."

Irelanze said she would pick a basket tomorrow.

"Thank you, but I'm afraid it's not enough..."

Annan ate it three times and his strength increased almost twice.

The increase seemed alarming, but it was mainly because Annan’s strength was too small, while the people in this world were generally stronger… Even now, he could at most have time to beg for mercy in the duel with Olmedo.

What really attracted Annan was the improvement of magic affinity. Annan had actually improved magic efficiency the week before... Even if he couldn't let every citizen of Liberty City eat the fruit of the original heart, at least he could make a "dud" like Mr. Victor, who was only one step away from being a real mage, truly transform. "

Irelanze said that although the Fruit of the Original Heart was not precious, it was just enough to eat in the royal court and it was difficult to distribute it in large quantities to the Free City.

"I'll find a chance to ask the elf elders."

Annan's gaze returned to the window.

Today is a clear night. The branches of the World Tree seem to be able to gently touch the distant stars. A faint fluorescent light flows between the branches. These lights gather into a river, illuminating the night sky of the green city of Evanas.

Is there anything more peaceful than looking at the beautiful night sky?
What could be more dangerous than looking at the beautiful night sky with a single, fifteen hundred year old elf?
