Alien world

Chapter 1158 80. Continue the Chase

Luo Xim was stunned: "What did you say?"

"I say, you are foolish enough to stop us and allow the real murderer who can harm the World Tree to cause chaos."

Annan knew it was inappropriate, but the beautiful Teddel's expression of disgust when she said this was really attractive...

The person involved, Luo Ximu, didn't feel anything at all, especially in front of outsiders. He regarded it as a shame and yelled out of control: "You were deceived by this outsider. There was no attacker at all!"

Annan deliberately showed a look of realization: "You mean the explosions in the Verdant City these days were caused by the elves."

"Of course it's you humans!"

Taidel's voice was gentle, but it carried a force that could not be ignored: "Loshim, I say it again, get out of the way!"

"You actually did it for an outsider..."

Taidel was disappointed. She had previously thought that Luo Ximu was an excellent tribesman and had put him on her list of potential partners...

"You guys go ahead, I'll stop them."

The legendary elf ranger, who had remained silent until then, spoke.

"You are... Lord Wind Walker?" Luo Ximu turned his eyes away from Taidel and Annan, whom he loved and hated: "How come even you..."

"Because you are wrong and I am right, it's that simple." said the Legendary Elf Ranger coldly.

The high elf elder hesitated for a moment: "No, the forbidden area has its own rules. Even you——"

His voice was forcibly stopped because the legendary elven ranger drew his bow, making him feel uneasy.

"The younger generation of elves nowadays do things without the vigor and energy of young people..." Thinking back on what he had seen along the way, the more the legendary elf ranger admired Annan, the more he disliked Losim in front of him.

The Skeleton King continued to fall towards Prince Aidan with Annan and Tidel.

Luo Ximu looked unwilling, and suddenly raised his head and shouted: "You must stop it——"

call out--

There was almost no shadow passing by as Luo Ximu was suddenly hit hard. An arrow pierced his abdomen and nailed him to the spot.

The other high elf guards wanted to take action, but in front of the legendary ranger, even the unprepared legendary wizard had no chance to react.

Dozens of arrows instantly pinned all the elves to the spot, and the wounds were all in the same position.

"You'll be fine if you don't struggle. The more you struggle, the more blood you'll lose." The legendary elf ranger warned and was about to catch up with Annan and the others.

"Lord Wind Walker!"

A muffled groan of suppressed pain suddenly sounded from behind, "Why are you helping humans..."

The legendary elven ranger had no choice but to stop and watch as Roshim ignored his advice and grasped the arrow, pulling it out, with blood gushing out.

"There are elves who want to destroy the World Tree, and there are humans who are protecting the World Tree. Which side are you on?"

Roshim froze: "Who wants to destroy the World Tree?"

"Just for example..."

……

"This is the Elven Court. They are a bunch of stubborn, corrupt, and inflexible people."

Roshim's obstruction made Taidel feel a little depressed: "Maybe the human prince has the same idea, he-"

"You can't think like that!"

In order to prevent Taidel from following Prince Aidan's path, Annan had to speak up. "The problem you mentioned does exist, but have you ever thought about why it exists?"

Tadell looked up.

"Because it is useful. Just like centralization in wartime can avoid endless internal friction, and democratic parliaments in peacetime can avoid monopoly, the establishment of all civilizations has its advantages... It's just that as time goes by, future generations become more and more dependent on this advantage, because it was right to do so in the past, so they think it is right to do so now, forming a terrifying inertia..."

"The Elven King's Court is like this, the Paem Kingdom is like this, and maybe the Free City will become like this in the future."

"Why?" Teddle asked.

All elves are immortal, but they have stayed in the Eldor Forest for thousands of years. They are not stained with too many colors and are very naive.

“When a policy is being implemented steadily and has no obvious drawbacks, will you continue with the wisdom of your predecessors or make drastic reforms without knowing the consequences?”

The Skeleton King was on his way, Taidel was thinking deeply, and Annan was talking freely: "That's why, if you are dissatisfied with something, don't complain loudly, but find a way to change it."

If Taidel were a commoner, Annan would not say these words to her that would only add to her troubles, but she is an elder, the chosen one of the elves, and may very well become the great elder in the future... She really has a chance to change all this.

The same goes for Prince Aidan. As a prince, with the support of his brothers and sisters, he had a great chance of convincing the capital or the great nobles to allocate him a territory for reform, but he chose the most radical way to destroy it and start over... Even at the end of the kingdom, it was not something that those in power had the courage to do.

"Don't complain, change it..." Taidel murmured softly, almost moved by Annan's words.

Is this human wisdom? Who taught him, the Reeves family?
Teddel, who had just begun to develop a curiosity about Annan, suddenly noticed that Annan was holding a magic stone.

"What are you recording?"

"Oh, I really don't want to say it again, so I'll just play it for Aidan when we meet later."

"You haven't given up trying to convince him yet?"

"After all, Irelanze's soul is still with him." Annan shrugged. "The safest way is to persuade Prince Aidan to change his mind."

"How did you and Irelanzer meet?"

"It was in Breeze City. She was a mentor in the Mage Tower at the time, and then..."

"There is a forbidden magic area ahead." The Skeleton King suddenly interrupted Annan.

"This is the defense set up by the high elves to protect the World Tree." Taidel said, "With tens of thousands of years of blessing, even a divine weapon would be suppressed by it."

When Annan and the other two approached the forbidden magic area, it also meant that they had arrived at the core area of ​​the World Tree - this was nonsense, because when he looked up, Annan could already see the trunk of the World Tree reaching into the sky.

Every wrinkle in the bark is as wide as a city avenue.

The Skeleton King is a magical creature, and as it stays in the forbidden magic area, it will become weaker and weaker, like a drowning person.

The good news is that since this place is almost at the foot of the World Tree, there are only elves born from nature - and a black dot slowly moving forward at the end of the sight.

"I can only send you here." The Skeleton King stopped at the edge of the forest.

"enough……"

Annan looked forward and saw an endless green field at the foot of the World Tree.

The sky was blue and the clouds were white. A breeze blew by, bringing freshness and the fragrance of flowers in the distance. Groups of elves were chasing each other on the grassland. In the distance, the huge outline of the World Tree stood like a guardian.

"I remember you are also a mage?" Annan asked Taidel.

Her response was to weave a longbow and several arrows out of the vines and branches around her.

“All elves are born with the ability to use a bow,” she said.

Annan and Taidel embark on the final leg of the chase.
