This elf world is kind of weird

Chapter 322 History is the development of life

The noisy night passed.

Turning around, the east had just turned white. Qixin, who had barely fallen asleep after tossing and turning for most of the night, was awakened by his anxious subordinates.

Sleepily, he heard the biggest bad news in months.

When the guard who had been hypnotized all night woke up, Damos had escaped from the prison, and with him, there were many Midina senators and his trusted subordinates.

"Gudu..."

The sudden bad news shocked Qixin, and he suddenly lost all sleep.

Strong panic enveloped his heart, but he couldn't help but feel grateful for his foresight.

"Thanks to last night's precautions, he captured all his dozens of monsters and put them in shackles, otherwise... hiss!"

Thinking of the dozens of powerful Pokémon that Damos had as his arms, Chisin took a breath and muttered to himself.

Fortunately, at this moment, they have all been shackled and have become weapons that obey his words. They can no longer cause trouble, but can become his pawns in hunting down Damos.

"Lord Qixin, what should we do now?"

The subordinates who came to report the news were already a little confused. Damos's prestige made him subconsciously want to avoid meeting the king.

"Does this need to be said? Order the whole city to search and capture him no matter what...Huh? Who asked you to come in now? Why are you so unruly? Didn't you see what I was talking about?!"

Just when he was about to give the order, before he finished speaking, another panicked soldier strode into the room, which made Qixin dissatisfied and scolded him coldly.

But this time, his subordinates who always obeyed him didn't care much and said anxiously: "Master Qixin, something big has happened! I must report to you immediately!"

"It's a big deal again...tell me."

Seeing that the eagerness in his subordinate's eyes did not seem to be fake, Qixin's anger subsided a little and sat back on the throne.

"Sir, look at this!" The soldier strode forward, took out a long strip of cloth, and unfolded it in front of Qixin, "Now this is everywhere in the city, and everyone who got up has seen it!"

"boom!"

"What did you say?!"

Qixin stood up and grabbed the cloth, shaking with anger.

[Qixin and his men have gone their own way and stolen the power of the gods, and will surely be punished. 】

The dark ink spread the heart-wrenching words throughout the city, and it was still late at night that he and all the soldiers didn't know.

The tight security of the mountain city is like a piece of window paper that is in vain, broken by a poke, and even riddled with holes in a humiliating way.

While talking, noisy shouts came from a distance.

Early in the morning, the news spread throughout this small mountain town like an infectious disease.

For a time, people were panicked, and even citizens gathered outside the palace to demand an explanation.

Yesterday's anger found a channel to vent today. Old problems and new problems were superimposed. Qixing, who was not supported by most people, was suddenly pushed to the forefront.

"Damn it! They're all losers!"

"Dang--"

The nervous Qixin flew into a rage and swung his staff forcefully, smashing the dining table filled with fresh fruits and vegetables.

Immediately afterwards, he was furious and rushed to all parts of the room. The carefully designed and crafted decorations were shattered in his manic slashes. The two subordinates were so frightened that they could only hide in the corner of the room and tremble, fearing that this person would become more and more moody. The boss is angry.

Fortunately for them, Qixin still maintained his rational judgment.

He was angry. After smashing more than a dozen exquisite decorations, he calmed down and called the two of them to him with a wave of his hand. His tone was cold and chilling:

"Pass my order and post notices everywhere in the city to tell everyone that Damos is the shameless sinner who tried to take the source of life as his own, and he also colluded with the mysterious people who suddenly appeared yesterday , stole the source of life, now we need to hunt them all down in the city and catch them all!"

"Is this...is this...I understand, let's do it right away!"

The two subordinates looked at each other. The simple ancient people found it difficult to accept Qixin's blatant way of confusing right and wrong. However, under Qixin's murderous eyes, he was defeated in just a few seconds and walked away shaking like chaff.

"Bam—"

The heavy door slammed shut with a loud noise.

When the obstructive subordinates walked away, Qixin seemed to have lost all strength and sat heavily on the throne, looking struggling.

Damos's escape, the controversy that filled the city, and the increasingly noisy commotion outside the palace, he already had a bad premonition.

Touching the top of the scepter with a sullen face, the metal shell opened, revealing the emerald green source of life.

In an instant, the entire room was covered with rich vitality, and Qixin also felt refreshed, and the fatigue from a night of not sleeping well disappeared.

"Damos... Arceus..."

Fear, anger, struggle, unwillingness... countless emotions alternated on his face, and a fierce ideological struggle completely broke out in his mind.

I don't know how long it took, but the gloomy face turned into a twisted smile. He stood up suddenly, strode towards the empty wall, and took a photo.

"Bang - click"

A secret mechanism on the wall was activated by the heavy blow. Amid the roar of the mechanical structure, a door opened, revealing a secret passage leading to the temple.

After looking around vigilantly and making sure that no one was prying, Qixin breathed a sigh of relief and strode inside.

The heavy iron door closed again, locking all the secrets inside.

However, at an unknown moment, an invisible eye was hanging on the roof, taking in everything that happened in the morning.

About an hour or two later, when Qixin returned along the secret passage with a relaxed expression and walked out of his room with relief, the situation had fundamentally changed.

The entire palace was in complete chaos in a short period of time.

There were running soldiers and panicked priests everywhere, looking busy.

Seeing Qixin walking out of the room, they immediately gathered around and reported the situation as if they had found a backbone.

Amidst the chaotic and fear-filled noise, Qixin's face turned livid and he yelled: "Shut up! You can't be so helpless after something big has happened. Please be quiet and speak alone!"

The years of accumulated prestige came into play, and the people who were his loyal subordinates fell silent amidst his angry rebuke and stood around cautiously.

While looking at each other, a middle-aged priest who looked quite senior stood up and walked to Qixin. He tried hard to maintain his calmness, but his voice trembled slightly: "Lord Qixin, just after they posted a message about Damos and his When my subordinates were arrested and questioned, something went wrong."

Qixin's eyes were slightly cold: "What's the problem?"

"Damos appeared, followed by a large number of his old subordinates, including those exiled slaves." The middle-aged priest swallowed hard and closed his eyes in pain, "Moreover, he also acted as He spoke to the surrounding citizens in front of the soldiers, and in the end even the soldiers we sent turned against him."

"!"

"Now, the entire Midina is completely out of control. Our troops can't resist it at all. They have just withdrawn back to the palace. More and more people are joining Damos' side. The whole city is in chaos. We only have We can use the magical beasts to barely stop them outside the palace."

Seeing Qixin's distorted face as nothing, the middle-aged priest seemed to want to finish what he had to say in his life, speaking faster and faster, drooling everywhere.

"What now? Why is it so quiet? Didn't they call in?"

After listening carefully, Qixin discovered the problem in the other party's statement, and his pupils trembled.

It was too quiet outside. There were only continuous noises erupting in distant places, but there were no explosions and collisions from the battle.

The priest nodded vigorously and said the only good news in his eyes: "Yes, I don't know why, they clearly had a huge advantage, but they did not attack. Instead, they allowed our soldiers and monsters to retreat into the palace. Only a few people were left standing outside.”

The more Qixin listened, the more he felt a headache, and his complexion changed from livid to pale.

The priest was still a little lucky that Damos had not launched an attack for a long time, but he already understood everything.

Damos's failure to attack was not a mistake or showing mercy, but quite the opposite.

The reason why he stopped was to disperse his men everywhere to summon and mobilize the power of the entire city-state.

He and a few of his subordinates, who came to power through coup, hypnosis and strong suppression, once lost control of society and faced the popular Damos, they had no ability to resist.

"boom!!!!!"

Just as he was thinking hard, a deafening explosion sounded from the window, followed by a huge fireball that rose slowly, which was terrifying.

"Lord Qixin, it's bad! They have invaded!"

Embarrassed soldiers came running from a distance, their voices trembling with fear.

He brings huge bad news.

Countless citizens and freed monsters, led by Damos, launched an attack on the palace and temple.

Most of the soldiers, whose morale was already low, were completely unable to resist the sight of the citizens and the highly respected king who bowed their heads every day.

"!"

"?!"

The words of the reporting soldier brought great fear. The coup forces that had been surrounding Qixin just now suddenly became a mess. Those who were timid became even more confused and ran away in a panic.

"clang!--"

"Give it all to me! Calm down!"

The scepter hit the ground heavily. Qixin forced himself to calm down and shouted loudly to calm his panicked subordinates.

The bronze bell behind him emitted superpower fluctuations, adding a soothing magical power to his voice.

In his shouts, the coup forces that were about to collapse miraculously regained their composure in a moment.

The situation was barely maintained, but Qixin knew very well that this was only temporary. Once the outer defense line was completely breached, both he and his subordinates would be in doom.

This time, Damos wouldn't give him a chance.

Knowing Damos's character well, he knew very well the reasons why the other party made these arrangements.

The benevolent king is a thing of the past, and the relationship between them is life and death.

In front of God, they have no choice.

"Follow me and fight them back! We are the stronger side, and Midina is ours!"

With a loud shout, Qixin, knowing that there was no retreat, took the lead and rushed to the front line of the battle.

He wanted to personally defeat Damos, kill him and his men, and completely control Midina.

Although he was extremely anxious, and countless known and unknown powerful enemies were waiting ahead, he had only this only choice.

It's like being rolled forward by the wheel of fate.

He did not believe that the citizens who were usually as docile as lambs and the slaves who had wasted their strength in prison could defeat the powerful army he had carefully assembled, even with Arceus as the imaginary enemy.

At least I don't want to believe it.

Waves of super power flashed one after another, controlling the soldiers who fled into the palace and followed him closely.

Dozens of powerful Pokémon scattered throughout the palace, bound by his shackles, originally obeying Damos, but now controlled by him, also came one after another in the glow of the scepter.

Moving forward quickly, the team grew in size until they stood in front of an even larger team.

That was a scale that even Qixin could not help but tremble with fear. It was as if most of the city-state had gathered under Damos' command and shared the same hatred with him.

But he and his army seemed to be alone.

"...Can we really win?"

During the tense confrontation, the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

The question of a trembling soldier's soul aroused fear in everyone's hearts.

Morale, which had been barely restored through the induction of superpowers, was on the verge of collapse again.

More and more soldiers and priests began to fight between the two groups.

Facing their king and the majority of citizens, as well as their comrades who were once in the same camp but now facing each other with swords, made them feel fear, uncontrollable fear.

The air was almost solid, and everyone's figure seemed to be bound by invisible shackles, extremely depressed.

Suddenly, the cold-looking Damos walked out of his guards and stood at the front of the team, showing his face that had been weathered by imprisonment in front of him.

"Qixin! Haven't you seen the situation yet?! You have no hope anymore. Just surrender and hand over the source of life that Arceus lent us!"

With his fingertips like swords, he pointed at the gloomy Qixin. With the support of the entire country at his back, Damos was confident and scolded him righteously.

"boom--"

As soon as he finished speaking, countless weapons and Pokémon's feet landed heavily on the ground, making an extremely shocking muffled sound, which frightened the weak coup party in front.

"Captured without mercy? What kind of dream are you dreaming about!" Qixin laughed angrily, and walked towards the center of the confrontation between the two armies under the protection of Bronze Bell and Xiduo Lan'en. His eyes were red, "You are the one who doesn't care about the future of this country. You are the naive one." King! Without the source of life, our country will cease to exist, and all this is because of your stupid promise!"

"After all these years, do you still have no respect and love for the Creator?"

Damos's chest rose and fell with anger. He waved his hand and saw that in the sky outside the palace, a black shadow had faintly eaten away at the edge of the sun.

This total solar eclipse is coming soon.

That was the moment promised to Arceus.

"Do you want the entire Midina to bear the wrath of God because of your selfishness and ambition?! If so, I will personally knock you down and all your accomplices. Because I have no time to wait for your repentance, no one You can threaten my country, our country!"

The gentle king turned into a furious lion at this moment. In front of the faith and country that he regarded as life, he no longer had the patience to waste words with Qixin.

"What... it's so fast!"

The total solar eclipse arrived earlier than expected, which not only exceeded Damos' expectations, but also caught Qixing off guard.

The silver water that he had high hopes for has just been completed and is being poured everywhere along the pipes, but it is not a task that can be completed in a moment.

All preparations are not yet complete.Thinking of Arceus' power to destroy the world, Qixin's face became even more gloomy, and his facial features were tangled and struggling together.

"you……!"

[There is no time for you to talk nonsense, why don’t you hurry up and take action? ! 】

Damos was about to strike while the iron was hot, when a voice exploded from his ears.

Philio, who had been hiding in the dark, began to urge.

He had already felt the aura of Arceus.

The Flute of Heaven in his arms began to heat up and stir, telling that its true owner was approaching, even if it was not an era.

This total solar eclipse not only came earlier than Damos and Chisin expected, it also exceeded Philio's expectations.

Even the shadow that Arceus took the initiative in this time and space was abrupt and swift.

"What the hell...I can't bear the temper of the old alpaca!"

Amidst the foul words that blurted out, Filio, who was hiding deep in the palace, had a cold light in his eyes. He looked at Nazi and nodded slightly.

"Go!"

"pass it to me."

Crystal blue light shone at the same time, and the unparalleled superpowers once again joined forces to attack, spreading the power of gods.

In an instant, the entire palace was dyed with a blue color, as if a god had come to this world.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Just when both the enemy and ourselves were in a panic due to the sudden change, explosions sounded from behind Qixin.

On the dozens of Pokémon that were still under shackles and waiting for Damos and others, the chains and armors suddenly broke from the connection and fell to the ground.

"Roar!!!"

The anger that had been accumulated for a long time was released with a fiery roar. The powerful Pokémon that escaped from the completely destroyed shackles exuded a dangerous aura and launched a fierce attack on the soldiers around it.

Caught off guard, Qixin's few remaining men fell to pieces once again. The already fragile morale and defense line collapsed due to internal strife, and there was a chorus of whines and cries.

"This is God helping us! Follow me and knock down all these traitors! Take back our source of life!"

Seeing this scene, Damos let go of the womanly kindness in his heart and gave the order immediately.

The majestic figure took the lead, followed by a tidal wave of people, launching a decisive charge.

"Damn it! Insidious guy! Bronze Bell! Sidoran! Stop them!"

Qixin gritted his teeth with hatred, and when he kept retreating, he waved his hand and commanded his last and most powerful trump card to charge forward.

Although he had seen that the army was defeated, he still refused to give up and made a final resistance.

Bound by the strongest shackles, the two Pokémon couldn't disobey Qixin's order no matter what they thought. They had no choice but to rush forward and kill Damos with an outnumbered enemy.

Fluctuations of superpowers emanate from the eyes of the bronze bell, interfering with people's perceptions, going straight into the depths of the soul, activating hypnosis that integrates instinct.

However, just when the bronze bell pushed its power to the extreme, a blue super light lit up from its steel body.

"Swish"

The dazzling light made the charging Damos' eyes sting, and tears came out unconsciously and flowed down his eyes.

The bronze bell, which was the source, paused in place, its eyes dull, and it had lost consciousness.

In just a moment, the superpower lurking in its body completely defeated its defenses.

The seeds that had been hidden for a long time began to sprout, and in the blink of an eye they turned into towering trees.

The bronze bell that was walking side by side with Xiduolan just now immediately became the puppet of Nazi and Filio.

"Crack...knock..."

Cracks appeared on the shackles and armor, becoming as dense as a spider web in the blink of an eye.

"Crack-"

Under the pressure of superpowers, the limits of ancient skills could not withstand it. After struggling to withstand a few breaths, it completely shattered and turned into countless fragments, scattered on the ground.

Without the last shackles, without giving Xiduolan and Qixin the slightest chance to react, the bronze bell was like a hungry tiger pounced on food, and crashed into Xiduolan's body under Nazi's remote control.

"boom--"

Steel against steel, the hard bodies overlapped, and the violent energy turned into a shock wave visible to the naked eye, overturning both sides of the fierce battle at the same time.

"March!!!"

In the lightning flash, at the top of the palace, a dark shadow appeared, expanded, and turned into an invisible passage.

Amidst the tender roar, the dark figure shot out of the void with a powerful aura.

The purple-black ball of light took one step faster and hit Xiduolan's head directly, causing a violent explosion and knocking it to the ground, making stars appear in its eyes.

Immediately afterwards, huge and muscular monsters swooped down, completely suppressing Xi Doran, who still didn't understand what was going on, leaving no room for struggle.

"What is this...it's you!"

Qixin's eyes widened in shock, staring at the Dream Demon and Emperor Nabo who were killing everyone like a tiger out of its cage, but he did not notice that a slender lavender figure was rushing out of the chaotic crowd.

Sun Eevee's whole body was condensed with strong and hidden power, without attracting anyone's attention. He flashed around and seized the opportunity to jump up.

"Buy!"

"Bam—"

The tide of super power swallowed Qixin instantly.

In the powerful collision, the originally solid and straight back bent into an extremely abnormal arc.

"Pfft—uh!"

Blood and saliva mixed together and spurted out unexpectedly.

The gloomy face was completely distorted by the severe pain and shock, and he fell to the ground heavily.

Until now, he still couldn't figure out why the situation had changed so much in just one night.

"Dang bang"

The scepter fell from his hand and hit the ground. The metal's tip protective layer shattered, and the green source of life rolled out, and Damos leaned over to pick it up.

But now, Damos was not in the mood to pay attention to the lost treasure. He just looked at Qixin quietly with compassion in his eyes.

He knew very well that Qixin, whose spine was broken by the full blow of Sun Ibrahimovic, could no longer survive, but he would not lose his life for a while and could only struggle in pain.

"Put down your weapons and spare your lives."

Cold voices came from all directions, filled with magical power of superpowers, destroying the last will of the coup party to resist.

"Dang bang"

"Boom"

Amidst the sound of a series of weapons falling, and with the fall of Qixin, who was regarded as a totem by all his subordinates, the final battle fell into complete silence.

The rebels who had lost their backbone no longer had the will to resist. They knelt down one after another, allowing the surrounding citizens and defecting soldiers to huddle together. The dark clouds that had been entrenched in Midina for several months completely dissipated.

"...ho...ahem..."

Qixin struggled to raise his head, endured great pain and wriggled his lips, making incomprehensible noises, staring at Damos with his hawk-like eyes.

"Is there anything else you want to say? For the sake of what you have done for Midina, I will listen."

Thinking of the past, Damos walked up to him, leaned over and listened, wanting to listen to his last words and send this old subordinate, who was so entangled with grievances, on his last journey.

"Hey...!"

Using his last strength and taking a deep breath, Qixin stood up at lightning speed and bit Damos' neck, leaving a circle of bloody tooth marks.

"Ah! Don't come over! I'm fine!"

Damos screamed in pain subconsciously, but still waved his hand to stop his subordinates who were about to step forward. He just looked at Qixin who had a look of hatred on his face after he let go.

"Do you hate me that much?"

"Oh...naive idiot...Midina...will be destroyed in your hands, and those blind fools...I...I am the one who can..."

As he lay dying, the look in Qixin's eyes had dissipated with the last flash of light, and he slumped to the ground amid vicious curses and lamentations.

At the last moment, Qixin tried his best to move his eyes, looked at the source of life that was only held in Damos' hand, and passed away with a sarcastic smile.

The ambitious man who tried to confront the God of Creation reached his fateful end and paid the price for his ambition and ignorance that did not match his abilities.

After a while, the sporadic sounds of fighting completely subsided.

The exquisite palace was now filled with the pungent smoke and bloody smell, and the sound of metal and stone clashing as soldiers in armor could be heard everywhere.

In the king's bedroom that originally belonged to Damos but was occupied by Qixin, Damos, who returned to his hometown, dismissed all his subordinates and sat alone on the throne.

Not far from him were the Pokémon who had rescued Arceus with him and experienced the first ray of light and heat from the source of life together.

After a brief but hand-to-hand fight, they silently surrounded their partners, licking their wounds.

"...Qixin."

Looking at Qixin and his scepter lying quietly on the ground in front of him, Damos raised his hand and wiped the wound on his neck with his rough fingertips, feeling mixed emotions in his heart.

"Do you still have the leisure to lament the death of this idiot? She is indeed the ultimate holy mother that Arceus admires, with a bodhisattva heart."

A sudden sound came from behind. A cold-faced Filio appeared accompanied by Nazi, but his words were full of gunpowder.

Hearing Philio's sarcasm, Damos stood up blankly and shook his head bitterly: "I'm sorry, I lost my temper. What happened today is thanks to your help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stop his madness. But after all, he I have made many contributions to Midina, but now that he is dead and the source of life can finally be returned to Arceus as scheduled, let this end here."

"Don't you understand yet? The person he was before is not the same person as he is today."

His good-looking eyebrows were furrowed into high ridges, and Filio felt hopeless at the dullness of the person in front of him.

With a wave of his hand, his super-powerful hand directly grabbed the source of life on the table and lifted it into the air.

"You'd better take a closer look at the source of your life and see what it is!"

"The Source of Life? Isn't everything normal? Wait...wait! Philio, what are you going to do?!"

Damos was confused, and before he finished speaking, he was shocked by Philio's next move and was at a loss for words.

"...You followers of Arceus are really blind from generation to generation! Wind fairies!"

Shaking his head in despair, Filio's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he threw his super-powered hand casually into the air.

"Elu!"

The wind fairy rushed out from behind, and the green ball of light that had been brewing for a long time was instantly blasted out, impartially, and hit the source of life in the horrified eyes of Damos.

"boom--"

There was an explosion, and the tide of energy surged in all directions, and the crystal clear orbs turned into countless powders and scattered out.

"Sheng...the source of life?!"

Damos froze in shock, and it took him a while to realize the meaning of Qixin's expression before he died.

The real source of life cannot be so fragile. This is false.

It was obviously a warm summer day, but Damos felt as if he had fallen into an ice bank, and his whole body felt chilly.

He shuddered at the thought of the consequences if Arceus found out.

"If you don't change your gullible temper soon, both Midina and yourself will suffer a big loss."

With a cold word, Philio walked towards the wall without looking back and slapped the empty wall hard.

"Rumble..."

As the mechanical gears rotate, the secret passage hidden in the wall is revealed.

"What are you still doing here? Let's go. I know where he put the things, but my friend can't do anything about it."

He glanced angrily at Damos, who was still in a daze. Feeling the increasingly urgent pressure, Felio was very rude and strode into it, followed closely by Nazi.

"Ah! Sorry!"

Only then did Damos wake up from a dream, and hurriedly followed up, leading the mighty Pokémon army into the narrow secret passage.

Following this secret corridor built by Qixin, you can reach the temple in the shortest time.

At this moment, in the sky outside the window, the solar eclipse was halfway through, and a pitch of darkness had eroded most of the sun's light.

The figure of Arceus appeared in the distant sky, flying slowly towards him, triggering warm cheers from the residents of the city.

Most people are always simple and simple.

They will be guided to fear, but also to feel joy from the inside out, especially when facing the god and savior they believe in.

The white body flew through the air and headed straight for the temple.

An imperceptible layer of light silvery gray lingers on the surface of the white body, exuding a strange aura.
