Your Highness, please spare the concubine

After a long while, she came back to her senses.

"Water of life? But... the tree of life, isn't it about to wither... Why... I heard that there is basically no water of life in the past few years!"

The blond girl suddenly felt unreal, and pinched her body with her hands.

This body turned out to be grown from the water of life! ?

This……

This is too dreamy!

In the elves, the tree of life is the place where the first elves were born.

So it is the holy tree, holy place, source and symbol of elves!

The tree of life can produce something called water of life, which can not only heal any wounds of elves...

Moreover, after a healthy female elf drinks it, there is a high probability of conceiving a child!

This kind of elf conceived by the water of life is called the original spirit, which means the original elf.

The children born through this method basically have high talents and beauty far beyond ordinary elves.

But there were not many waters of life when the tree of life was flourishing.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the elves intermarry and give birth to children.

By the way, the children of elves and other races are collectively called half-elves.

Compared with ordinary elves, half-elves have both good and bad talents, but generally the inferior talents are mostly.

However, it does not rule out the powerful talents inherited from other races.

But that is not strictly speaking something of the elves.

And ordinary elves are shorter than the original spirits.

It's just that because the production of the water of life is not much, it is basically reserved by the elf royal families of the past to give birth to powerful offspring.

Occasionally, part of the water of life will be rewarded to elves who have performed outstandingly.

But these years, the tree of life has been in the withering stage, and even its own survival is a problem, let alone secrete the water of life, which consumes its own vitality.

Thinking of this, Winnie's brain was already buzzing.

Could it be that she is the last original spirit?

"Although the tree of life is withering now, you, Winnie... When Her Majesty the Empress gave birth to you more than ten years ago, it still had a little bit of energy to secrete the last bit of water of life..."

Carol's mother's voice came faintly to Winnie's ears.

"You are the last pure elf born from the water of life. Now the tree of life can no longer give out any more water of life."

Winnie stood up suddenly, her eyes flickered and she stammered, "This, this... wait... wait... I, let me calm down."

The girl paced back and forth in the house, but Carlo's mother didn't rush her, waiting for her to digest slowly.

After about ten minutes, Winnie took a long breath and sat back in her seat.

"Mother Carlo, this is the important thing you said?"

"No." Carlo's mother shook her head.

The other party's negative answer made Winnie swallow her saliva involuntarily.

"what is that?"

"Now you know all your identities, Winnie, let me ask you..." Carlo's mother paused, looking at her seriously.

"Your belief is the tree of life, the elf king god, and the pure soul of our elves!?"

Confused by the other party's question, Winnie just nodded in a daze: "Yes."

"Then now, it's time for you, Your Highness, to know about the affairs of the elves and lead us to take measures."

Hearing the title "His Royal Highness" instead of Winnie, the blond girl felt even more uneasy.

"I?"

"Yes, good boy, there are some things you should know."

====

The reason why the tree of life will wither is that it has not been irrigated and restored in time by the water of the holy tree.

There is also the tree of life that has been dedicated to the elves for many years, but has reached the point where its vitality and energy are exhausted.

Nothing lasts long without replenishment.

"But it's not just that..."

Carlo's mother raised her eyes and looked in the direction of the Elven Circle.

"If it's just that the tree of life has not been replenished, we elves will take care of it day and night, and we can maintain it for another 100 years if we stop its activities."

"Why is that?" This was why Winnie wanted to know very much.

You know, the sacred tree that represents the life of an elf is also her childhood playmate.

As an elf, she will naturally get close to the tree of life!

Hear its leaves rustle and feel its teachings whispered in the wind.

It is like a friend, touching itself with an invisible hand, so loving and tolerant, making people warm.

But when the tree of life began to wither, all these seemed to disappear.

It is like an old man who is dying, unable to extend his loving 'hands' to any elves!

Winnie desperately wanted to know the answer, while Carlo's mother clenched her fists and spoke extremely slowly!

"Because... the new god... is here!"

"New God?"

"That's right!" Carlo's mother fixed her eyes on Winnie.

"The Tree of Life is inextricably linked to the Elf King God, and its rise and fall is also influenced by the Elf King God!"

"Now, the new gods are gradually coming down to this continent, and the beliefs are in disorder and gradually mixed...even we elves cannot escape."

"The impact brought by the new gods caused cracks in the original order of the gods..."

"Right now, quite a few elves in the Elven Circle have converted to believe in new gods..."

"Because of the loss of faith, the power of the elf king god is weakening, which has also led to the withering of the tree of life getting worse..."

"If you can't find the water of the holy tree again... Winnie, I'm afraid you will really be the last original spirit."

Even though she was mentally prepared, Winnie was still too shocked to speak when she heard this.

She asked blankly: "New God? Faith? Me, why haven't I heard of it?"

Carlo's mother sighed: "It was already there before you were born. At that time, the Elf Queen led people to clean it up, but it still couldn't stop its spread."

"So we can only block the news and minimize the speed at which it spreads."

"By now, it is already necessary to regard him as an enemy."

"The reason why I didn't tell you, or even deliberately kept it from you, is that you are too young to bear these things, and if you speak out, it may even hurt you."

Hearing this, Winnie only felt something pour into her chest, making her blood start to boil.

The girl raised her voice and asked, "Who!? Who is the new god?"

"Believers call it the uncrowned elf god-Otronbo!"

With the sound of Carlo's mother falling, a thunderbolt suddenly sounded outside the boat.

Boom!

The sound waves shook, causing the two of them to tremble in fright, and they looked back in disbelief.

Soon, many elves ran to the deck to investigate in surprise, and their voices fell into the ears of the two from afar.

"What was that just now!?"

"Looks like thunder?"

"Thunder? How can there be thunder on the sea surface of this big sun?"

"But I was lying by the window just now, and I did see a flash of light... The sound was also like thunder..."

In the house, it took Winnie a long time to calm down.

"In other words, due to the lack of water from the holy tree and the loss of elf believers, the lineage of believers in the elf king god is decreasing, and the tree of life is also accelerating its decline?"

"Yes."

Take a few deep breaths and try to calm down.

I didn't expect that something important would be so earth-shattering!

The blond girl's eyes became firm.

"Since I am the original spirit born from the water of life, I must stand on the tree of life, on the side of the elf king god and the queen mother!"

Winnie looked at Carol's mother and asked, "What am I going to do!?"

"Have you decided on the child?" Caro's mother felt a little unbearable at this time.

"If you uphold the holy righteousness and fight against the gods and their believers, you will definitely be accompanied by danger in the future, and you may even die..."

"If the Queen hadn't told me that calling you back this time was to prepare for this..."

"You will know this in two days... Otherwise, I will never tell you."

As she spoke, tears dripped from the corners of Carlo's mother's eyes.

Winnie was moved, and immediately hugged the other party, her voice choked up.

"It's okay, mother Carlo... I'm not afraid. Even if you don't tell me, it can't change the facts, can it?"

"We will face it eventually. It is better to know now and prepare earlier."

Carlo's mother hugged Winnie tightly with tears in her eyes, crying and lamenting.

"Winnie, you don't understand... the new god Otronbo has been cultivating believers for more than ten years, and has reached [-]% of our elves!"

"There is still a growing trend!"

"These believers can gain strength by relying on the secret words of the gods... Now, their overall strength has reached the point where the elf queen has to use all resources to resist."

"So in the past two years, our elves outside have basically not received much help from the elves circle, whether it is doing tasks or doing business..."

Hearing this, Winnie suddenly realized: "So that's the case, I said this mission, why didn't any of the master queen mothers in the clan give us... I thought it was to test me."

Carlo's mother sighed: "Yeah, now we can only rely on ourselves when we go out."

"Her Majesty's masters, guards, etc. are secretly competing with the believers of the new god."

"The circle of elves seems to be peaceful, but in the dark it is already turbulent and dangerous!"

"Right now, the old and new gods cannot coexist, and the believers of the two parties will surely launch a war in the future for survival and resources."

"Winnie, good boy, Mom, I really don't want you to get involved!"

Carlo's mother burst into tears, and Winnie, who knew all about it, shed tears without words.

"Don't talk about Carlo's mother, since I am the source of the tree of life and the child of the queen mother, I will definitely take on this responsibility."

The blond girl choked up, and said softly but firmly.

"Even if I say I want to leave now, if the elves who believe in the New God know of my existence in the future, they will still come to find me and imprison me? Why don't we face it now..."

Seeing her determination, Carlo's mother could only shed tears and smiled in relief.

While holding Winnie's face in her hands, Carlo's mother smiled distressedly and gratifiedly: "Good boy, good boy..."

Winnie wiped away her tears: "But the best situation is that everyone can sit down and talk. I don't want elves to kill each other because of their beliefs."

"Even if we split into two factions in the future, it's okay for everyone to occupy the north and south of the elf world."

After hearing this, Carlo's mother smiled bitterly and shed tears: "I'm afraid, such an extravagant hope will be wishful thinking."

Only when both parties are helpless to each other will each take a step back and seek coexistence.

But the day when one party has the ability to eliminate the other party, it will be the day when the other party dies!
