Lord of Rot

Chapter 634 Elven Civilization
The dying giant trees rarely sprout branches.

A light and warm scent surrounds the tip of the nose.

"return!"

The huge figure radiating light called in a difficult voice.

Elves, perfect creatures, are born extraordinary. Their lifespan is only longer than that of a giant dragon, and their appearance is exquisite.

"You are needed here!"

"The orc crisis has been resolved."

She opened her mouth to speak, but the strange thing was that she was neither sure who she was nor how she made the sound, as if everything fell into place as soon as her brain moved.

"He is the God-Slayer, the enemy of all things!" The body of light and shadow said: "Don't bring him, don't..."

"Ah!" Bai Lu was alert and sat up suddenly.

Since leaving Panber Continent, Bailu has been dreaming about the Elf Mother Tree and the vague king. But as she followed Li Qi back to Panbor Continent, the vague dream began to become clear.

In her dream, she reported to Wang the situation on Li Qi's side.

At first, the king didn't care, and just asked her to return to the Elf Forest as soon as possible, but because the orc army occupied the Elf Forest, she couldn't get close.

Now that Li Qi had successfully killed the orcs, Wang suddenly changed his tune and told her not to take Li Qi over.

But things were no longer within her control, and she felt that the dream was very strange.

Why did Wang, who had been strategizing all this time, suddenly become impatient, and why was he so anxious to urge himself to go back?

The tent suddenly squeezed inward, and a vague figure was caught in the flames of the campfire and twisted on the tent.

Bai Lu's hands groped in panic.

Fortunately, the sword was in her hand. The moment she held the sword, she successfully calmed down.

"Are you okay?" The person came in and asked.

Looking at the head wrapped in the rune helmet, Bai Lu remembered where he was.

Because the Lurea Empire army successfully defeated the orc army and successfully established weapons and troops at major pass points and areas, the Elf Forest was completely included in the scope of the Lurea Empire.

She and the task force headed to the Elf Forest.

Not only the White Deer came with him, but also the White Falcon who harbored ill intentions towards the elves.

"No." Bai Lu shook his head: "I had a nightmare."

"Then you'd better go back and find the Dreamer once. She can solve all the problems related to dreams." The other party left, not feeling nostalgic about Bai Lu's romantic reunion.

The soldiers have special trust in Li Qi and will recognize Li Qi's distrust.

For example, it is widely rumored that the greedy Li Qi will never show special emotions towards elves, and other people will deliberately distance themselves from elves even if they don't know the reason.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Bai Lu's heart rang with alarm bells, knowing that his dream must not be known to Bai Falcon, otherwise the other party would probably attack him first.

That lunatic will go crazy as long as he hears the slightest disturbance related to elves.

Along the way, she always felt that Bai Falcon was aiming at her neck. If not for everyone's equal strength, she believed that Bai Falcon would be happy to die with her.

But what does that group of light and shadow from the king mean?
After she lay down, she continued to think and fell asleep.

The dazzling sunlight penetrated through the cracks in the tent. The people who left yesterday did not close the tent tightly, so Bai Lu had to hold back his breath and get up.

When I looked outside, I saw people coming out of other tents one after another.

People ate marching rations, a curious canned food, and talked about the recent war.

Winning battles is the norm for the Lurea Empire.

Although Bai Lu wanted to say that Li Qi always only fights sure battles and always treats his enemies in a crushing way, he had to admit that since coming to Panbo Continent, he rarely failed.

Bai Lu felt irritated by the crowd chatting, so he randomly found a place with few people to sit down.

Unexpectedly, he happened to be together with Bai Falcon, and his unconcealed murderous eyes made Bai Lu frightened.

Bai Falcon asked in a deep voice: "Are you having a nightmare?"

"Dreaming is normal!"

Bai Lu grabbed the can with one hand and pulled out the short blade with the other hand. Under Bai Falcon's dead eyes, he plunged the short blade into the can with a "thud".

Twist the blade and the sauce splashes out.

"I'll keep an eye on you, elf!"

"You are an elf too!"

As we continued on our way, the condition of the white deer deteriorated visibly.

As she got closer and closer to the Elf Forest, she felt worse and worse, and the joy of going home could not dilute the uneasiness in her heart.

Expectation and resistance are both indescribable feelings.

Another night of resting on the roadside.

Bai Lu woke up from his dream again.

The content of the dream was still talking to the king's light and shadow. There was no exciting and nervous scenery, but it made her feel uncomfortable all over.

In the dream, the other party talked about the origin of the elven race and the current difficulties they encountered.

After waking up, Bai Lu felt at a loss.

Until she entered the Elf Forest, she kept dreaming. Whenever she fell asleep, she would dream of that ball of light and shadow. She believed in the other person unconditionally, but when she woke up, she would instinctively wonder why she respected the other person as a god.

Moreover, during the communication between the two parties, the other party only told her whether to come or not, but did not say anything else.

Finally, the team officially entered the forest.

Towering trees that only five or six people can hug can be seen everywhere.

Except for the two elves, no one else in the team had ever seen such a spectacular scenery. It seemed as if they suddenly shrank into ants and entered the kingdom of giants.

From time to time, I exclaimed and marveled at the magic of the world.

A green plant as tall as two people stood in front of them, blocking the way forward. Everyone drew their swords and chopped a way out.

"Is this grass?" Someone squatted down and picked up the chopped plant roots.

"Grass that tall?"

"How big must the bugs be inside?"

"Phew, it's okay, the bugs are still ordinary bugs, haha!"

The one who volunteered to lead the way was Bai Falcon. He was filled with murderous intent. No matter what disturbance he heard, he would pull out the "Sword of Life-breaking Sword" and throw out a huge blade of flames that could devour everything, strangulating the front into a pitch-black mess.

Compared to Bai Falcon's decisiveness, Bai Lu was extremely confused.

Her goal is to move reinforcements to the Lulea continent and snatch back the mother tree and home from the orcs.

She and Li Qi established a cooperative relationship, although she had always been the one to force contact with him.

Then she watched the other party proclaim himself emperor, and then he came to Panbo continent and defeated the orcs.

Now my mission should have been completed.

But after actually entering the forest, Bai Lu discovered that the orcs had never been here before. The weeds grew taller than people, but there were no traces of anyone walking there.

Did your mission not exist from the beginning?
……

"This is it!" Bai Falcon came to a huge abandoned facility, broke the door and rushed in.

Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow him in.

Go through the tunnel until you reach an underground cage somewhere corroded by time.

The rust piled up into small piles and spread out with the wind brought by people walking around.

Bai Falcon trembled slightly and wiped his eyes, as if he was lost in memories.

When he put down his sleeves, the murderous aura in his body could hardly be suppressed, like a flood that instantly filled the entire underground, making everyone feel heavy and breathless.

This elf just wants to kill, kill, kill.

The leader said: "See if there are any traces of living people outside!"

The two elves did not play the role they imagined. Bai Falcon's memory of the elves only stayed in the cage and imprisonment. After arriving at the place, his role was gone.

Bailu fulfilled his promise and led the team to find the elf's treasure, and then he fell into a state of despair.

But in front of the huge wealth of the orcs, the treasures of the elves are not of much value. If Li Qi, who had not yet become emperor, saw it, he might be moved.

Now, it can only be considered a fairly good profit.Most of the magic materials have lost their effect, or simply weathered and turned into powder, leaving only black and yellow traces specially marked by time, and small pits where grass does not grow.

……

"Has the elven civilization completely disappeared?"

Li Qi sat on the throne and raised his hand to gently beat the tambourine. This was a strange object that could inspire courage in people's hearts and came from a certain orc army.

The effect is similar to the Ogre's red light, but the effective range is wider.

As long as you tap according to a certain rhythm, its effect can be activated to the greatest extent, but the range of influence is very limited.

For Li Qi, the tambourine can only change him from "listless" to "very energetic", which is equivalent to an alarm clock reminding him not to stay in bed. As for whether it can play a role, it depends on his mood.

But if you put it in the orc assembly line, just one tap will make the lazy orcs work like vomiting blood.

Equivalent to the acceleration button of the assembly line conveyor belt.

There was too much manpower at his disposal, so Li Qi didn't even consider overdraft.

After actually arriving at his destination, Li Qi found that he had no interest in the Elf Forest.

He had thought many times about what he would encounter when going to the Elf Forest. Of course, no matter what he encountered, it wouldn't be too serious.

Even the elves are powerless against the arrogant and domineering Orcs outside, so why can they deal with themselves who are crushing the Orcs.

"Have you found the mother tree?" Li Qi asked.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, in the Elf Forest.

The leader of the team, fully covered in rune armor, asked: "Have you found the mother tree?"

Although there were people standing around him, everyone knew that the person asking the question was Bai Lu.

"Here it is!" Bai Lu looked around: "Every tree is there!"

"How do we save you elves?"

The leader turned around and searched, but he didn't see a fruit on the tree that could bear elves like Bailu said.

"Or are your people hiding from us?"

White Deer: "..."

She was silent.

Because she couldn't figure out the current situation, it was just a ruin that looked abandoned for countless years.

There is nothing that can be called a prosperous civilization.

"Where's the White Falcon?"

"We are preparing to burn this place down."

"Stop him! The forest is so big. If it really starts to burn, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop the fire. And with so much wood, it can also provide us with a lot of wood resources, right?"

Bailu: "??"

Li Qi didn't care at all whether the elves' civilization still existed. It was good to have it, but if it didn't exist... he was also good at utilizing waste.

In this huge forest, felled trees can be used to burn charcoal and provide energy.

From the fact that the weeds can grow as tall as two people, it can be seen that the land here is very fertile, and if it is used to grow crops, there will definitely be a bumper harvest.

Nothing can stop a great lord from farming.

Of course, if necessary, he can also change the species he grows, such as growing wheat instead of growing mushrooms.

……

Another awakening from a dream.

Bai Lu was used to being covered in cold sweat every time he woke up.

The images in the dream became clearer and clearer.

She got up, wearing only cool clothes, and went outside to get a basin of water to wash her face.

When looking down at the water, the white deer was stunned.

His face has changed, exuding a soft light, and his delicate face gradually changes in a certain direction. Recently, he has been plagued by nightmares, his face is pale, and his eyeballs are all bloodshot.

Tick.

There were ripples in the basin, and the ripples hit the edge of the basin and came back, and her appearance changed more and more.

Bai Lu subconsciously reached out and touched his face, which was still so smooth and tender.

Strong nose bridge and delicate jawline.

This face was called "absolutely beautiful" by Li Qi, but he never touched it.

She didn't want to let the other person have unreasonable thoughts about her because of Li Qi's ignorance. Even the bard didn't bother to sing the story of the bloody beautiful lady to prove that she forced others to fall in love with her. .

The two sides maintain a strange cooperative relationship.

Bai Lu has never been able to show her abilities under Li Qi, and Li Qi has never relied on her abilities. He only treats her as a small object, giving orders when he thinks of her, and throwing her aside when he can't.

The light quickly enlarged, completely replacing the white deer's face in the reflection on the water.

"king!"

She had not seen the Elven King since she was born, but she was sure she recognized him.

The light gradually enlarged and swallowed up the white deer.

"Bang!"

The water basin tipped over and spread all over the floor.

The others looked at Bai Lu in confusion, only to see her turn around unsteadily.

After moving forward, the person appeared in front of the leader in an instant, and with one hand he gently lifted his head off.

……

Li Qi was distracted by controlling many ghouls. Without Isis by his side, controlling the ghouls was even more laborious.

However, Panbo Continent is very rich in resources.

Now the number of ghouls has exceeded 3000, all of them are Warcraft and Wild Orcs, and the number is still growing steadily.

In other words, in the story, they can defeat evil monsters and save the lord's daughter. As heroic knights whose stories have been passed down through the ages, Li Qi can already use them as a basic unit.

Wearing rune armor will make you stronger.

Suddenly, a wight loses control.

Li Qi searched carefully and found that the out-of-control corpse was in the Elf Forest, and he regarded it as the leader.

He tried to connect again, but unexpectedly he successfully contacted the other party.

His consciousness gently connected, and he found that his head was being held by a hand.

"Huh? The body has been cut off?"

Li Qi turned his eyes downward and found that only one head of the corpse was left, surrounded by the corpses of the entire team.

Only then did he look at the person holding "his head", Bai Lu.

At this time, Bai Lu was a completely different person, with a calm expression.

"I want to be with you..."

"Launch!" Li Qi directly disconnected from the corpse's head: "Use the dimensional anchor, no one can escape!"

The three giant dragons received the signal at the same time, tore apart the space and flew towards the Elf Forest.

"White Deer", who was holding the ghoul's head, also noticed that the ghoul's connection was disconnected, and then she raised her head and looked above her head.

"Three legends!" She expressed solemnly.

The next moment, the dimensional anchor blocked the space.

Then three objects with a strong aura of death fell from the sky.

The ball of light swallowed up most of the Elf Forest.

Only ruins remain.
