Chapter 331 Moon Goddess 【Subscription】

A vast lake is like a bright blue crystal inlaid in a piece of turquoise emerald. The rays of sunlight are reflected on the blue water, forming a magnificent picture.

The water on the lakeshore is filled with a subtle white mist that seems to radiate endless energy, and the crystal-like surface reflects the color of the surrounding environment. The color of everything from the sky to the flowers on the grass shines in it.

Near the "Eternal Lake", you can see some birds jumping or flying from time to time, showing their elegant posture.There are many strange plants scattered around, some towering into the sky, some curling and coiling, and some shining with gorgeous colors.

In the distance, some towering peaks and forests can be seen, shrouded in mist.The sounds of nature surround this place like the chirping of birds, the sound of wind blowing leaves and the gurgling of water, which make this place even more mysterious and beautiful.

However, although the dark troll had fiery eyes, he was not obsessed with this beautiful scenery.Because they know that the lake in front of them is just an illusion.

According to the narratives of mysterious creatures such as elf dragons, chimeras, and dryads, they learned that there was an extremely magical deep well in the center of the forest—the Well of Eternity, which nurtured the entire forest...

However, just over 500 years ago, a group of extremely tall beings that looked like gods occupied the center of the forest. No one dared to explore, and no one knew what happened. When this group of tyrannical beings disappeared more than 400 years ago, The Well of Eternity disappeared, and was replaced by a vast lake that covered an area of ​​nearly [-] times the previous area - the Lake of Eternity.

The reason why it is called the Lake of Eternity is because it has the same aura as the Well of Eternity, although the energy concentration that escapes is only one-third of the previous one.

The reason why this lake is fake is because this lake is a fake empty shell, a pure illusion, without even a drop of water. Things flying on the lake will be randomly teleported to several locations outside the lake. Hundreds of miles away.

At this point, everyone knew that this lake was the external appearance of a huge magical barrier, but no one had ever broken through the barrier and entered it.

Fortunately, however, the water mist escaping from the "lake" is the "well water" escaping from the Well of Eternity. It is full of the energy of the Well of Eternity, making a group of aborigines willing to continue to live in the area where their treatment is greatly reduced. in the forest...

The mist on the shores of the Eternal Lake also has a deep attraction for the dark trolls, making them unable to help but want to get closer and indulge in the white mist.Finally, after many explorations, the dark trolls confirmed that there was no danger, and they settled on the shore of the Eternal Lake.

For more than 1000 years, these trolls bathed in the energy emanating from the lake, growing rapidly and even their bodies changed to make them worthy of their noble souls.

The trolls became a group of extremely intelligent, almost immortal creatures, gradually abandoning ancient customs and traditions.

Moreover, I don’t know when the mystics in the tribe began to worship a strange god-the moon goddess Elune. They believed that she was closely connected with the Well of Eternity, and claimed that the goddess slept deep in the well during the day.

Through their communication with Elune and their investigation of strange ruins scattered around the Eternal Lake, they also learned the name "Kalimdor" and other terms related to Titan creations, and thus slowly learned about the mysterious Titans. language.

Influenced by these new languages, they called themselves the Kaldorei - "Children of the Stars" - meaning Night Elf...

On a full-moon night, the stars on the Eternal Lake shone brightly and charmingly. Many night elves gathered around the Eternal Lake to prepare sacrifices to Elune.

In the sacrificial camp, fire trees and silver flowers were set off, and the sounds of carnival came and went.

Next to the Eternal Lake are placed several large altars and statues of gods, filled with various spices and flowers, which are fragrant.

The night elves slowly opened some special bottles, which were filled with strong moonshine wine.This kind of wine is fermented from special plants they picked in the mountains. It has a mellow and refreshing taste.

While enjoying the moonshine wine, the night elves will begin to sing some ancient prayer songs to express their respect and gratitude to the moon goddess Elune.Their songs were melodious and moving, as if they could penetrate time and space, immersing everyone who listened, and they began to dance to the songs.

Tall night elf males dance in rich costumes, holding shining spears.Beautiful night elf women were bathing in the moonlight, wearing long fringed skirts and dancing gracefully.Their hair is dyed in various colors and embellished with metal pieces and gems, making it reflect the dazzling colors in the moonlight.

When the atmosphere reached its peak, which was also the deepest time of the night, the night elves gathered under the altar by the Eternal Lake. The altar and statues were carved from marble and crystal, and were illuminated by towering torches.

Then, a young and beautiful night elf woman walked out of the queue. She was Haldeni, the priest of the moon goddess Elune. She was the representative of the night elf mother and had a special status in the tribe.

Haldeni slowly walked up to the altar holding a carefully crafted luminous crystal ball in his hands. This ball represented the symbol of the moon goddess.

On the altar, in front of the statue of the god, Haldeni raised the crystal ball high, and then began to announce to the world the night elves' sincere prayers for the Moon Goddess in a magnetic and melodious voice.

Under the guidance of the priest, all the night elves participating in the ceremony also began to offer their own gifts. Some placed new sprouts, some lit candles, and some presented beautiful jewelry. Everyone dedicated their power to the moon goddess in their own way.

Finally, the ceremony entered the most solemn part - praying to the Moon Goddess for blessings.

Under the altar, the night elves held various crystal vessels filled with sparkling moonlight wine, looking up at the majestic and sacred statue in front of the Eternal Lake.

Then, all the night elves looked up at the sky and sang a simple but powerful ancient hymn together.They swayed their bodies, danced their limbs, and hummed softly.The sounds of instruments, chorus and improvisation are heard throughout the camp.

The music of the night elves is particularly suitable for open and quiet environments, and it sounds even more moving against the background of the night sky.The priest's song seemed to spread throughout the sky and could be heard miles away.

Priest Haldeni stood on the altar, holding a crystal ball in his hand, gently closed his eyes, recited some incantations silently, and then extended the crystal ball to the sky.

A bright moonlight scatters outward from the crystal ball, forming a beautiful halo.This halo sprinkled white petals around the night elves gathered around the altar, as if prepared for the presence of the goddess Elune.

Along with the spells and music, some faint light began to emerge from the white mist on the Eternal Lake, making the scene more mysterious and solemn under the moonlight.

An illusory white shape gradually solidified from the white mist. Under the surprised and awed gazes of the night elves, it floated above the altar and turned into a gentle white ball of light.

The light of the huge moon spread in all directions, spreading a layer of loving fire, bathing the entire sacrificial camp in this bright light and gentle energy, a sign that the goddess Elune was answering these prayers.

At this time, all the night elves felt a powerful and warm force integrated into their bodies, expelling the fatigue of the past, their souls became lighter, and their thoughts became more alert...

At this time, a thick white mist emerged from the Eternal Lake behind him and enveloped the sacrificial camp. Dots of faint blue light shone in it. The bright moonlight was as clear as water blooms, making it look like a fairyland.After a while, the light group in the white mist gradually dissipated, and the night elves who had been baptized by the moonlight gradually recovered. Feeling the changes in their bodies, the faint radiance and intoxicating aura surrounding them, they stretched out their arms toward The sky shouted: "Praise Elune!!!"

……

Beside the Well of Eternity, Rey looked at the deep well water. He gently put down the scroll in his hand, looked back, and said with a smile: "Elune, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

A ray of light passed through a light blue vortex, and a tall and slender woman wearing a gorgeous silver dress and a purple cloak appeared.

Her hair shone like the full moon, and her pupils shone brightly, even compared to any star in the night sky.She looked at Rey and said in a soft tone: "Raylas! Nice to meet you too!"

"Hehehe... Back then, when I was in the Pantheon, I heard Norgannon say that our Pantheon brought back an Eternal from the Shadow Realm, but Iona took him with her, and we never had a chance to meet him. See... Now, when you and I meet, the Pantheon of Gods has disappeared into thin air. Things are really unpredictable... However, being able to meet an old friend can be regarded as a great blessing among misfortunes..."

Rey looked at Elune, stroking the scroll with one hand, and said with a sigh on his face.

"When Iona and I were sowing the seeds of life in the universe, I had heard of Reylas, your reputation for slaying billions of demons and saving countless worlds, but we couldn't meet each other because of our respective responsibilities...

I also felt devastated when I heard that the Pantheon had been destroyed...but I had a heavy responsibility and couldn't leave. I couldn't leave. I could only hope...

Because Azeroth has always been uneasy and the star soul is unstable, I can only stay in the Emerald Dream to comfort...

Now, I am overjoyed to learn that you are coming to Azeroth! !Pantheon revival is expected! "

Elune also said with great emotion.

"Alas... the past is gone... Now we are together... On the road to resisting Sargeras from now on, I will no longer be alone..."

Rey waved gently on the Well of Eternity with one hand, patted the stone slab with the other, and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Elune frowned in embarrassment and said slowly: "Sigh... it is naturally our duty to resist Sargeras... but I have an important mission... I can't stay away from Azeroth... "

After saying that, Elune also nodded towards the Well of Eternity.

Hearing this, Rey frowned slightly and nodded, and said: "I know... you need to take care of Azeroth... It is also the most important part of the protective measures left by the Pantheon. It really cannot be left lightly... "

"However... Algalon and I need your help to strengthen the Star Curtain Array to defend Azeroth...

At that time, the protective measures deployed by the Pantheon to prevent powerful foreign beings from entering were just outside the starry sky of Azeroth... Now, they need to be upgraded and deeply integrated with multiple layers of protection... However, Algalon said this I don’t know much either…”

With that said, Rey waved the metal scroll in his hand to Elune.

Hearing this, Elune was silent for a while and then said slowly: "You tell me what you plan to do first... The protection of Azeroth is of great importance, and I must think about it carefully..."

"Well... this is very complicated... a lot of modifications are needed... For example, your current symbol, the core of the protective measures - the lady in white, also needs some fine-tuning... The specifics can wait until you think about it... Come at any time Ulduar communicated with me and Algalon... This is the seal of authority..."

Rey nodded solemnly and said seriously to Elune. At the same time, a light blue mark flew toward Elune from Rey's hand on the Well of Eternity.

Hearing this, Elune nodded slightly in silence, stretched out her hand to take the mark, and looked at the Well of Eternity that exuded infinite brilliance without knowing what she was thinking.

"Elune...what do you think of the night elves?"

Suddenly, Rey waved his hand lightly, and a scene of night elves praying devoutly outside the Eternal Lake appeared in front of them. Rey pointed at the night elf priest among them and asked softly.

"Well... I think they still have a lot of potential that has not been tapped... Their nature is in line with nature and order... and the concept of life... I am very optimistic about them..."

Elune looked at the night elf in the picture and nodded slightly, without shying away or covering up, and answered directly to Rey calmly.

"Well... I think so too. They are just like the mortal beings under my command, they are the hope of the future... I hope Elune, you can train them well... To fight against Sargeras, we need more like-minded partners... …”

"Well, I will..."

……

Looking at the dissipating vortex and the tight magic circle in front of him, Rey nodded heavily, looked back at the Well of Eternity, and thought silently in his heart:

"Elune... is really a mysterious existence... throughout... the identity is questionable...

However, I still caught a trace, after all, we are also experienced...

The true form that has never appeared... The aura of Azeroth is so strong, even pure... Interference... Believers execute... But never really enter the game... So far, I still have concerns... The true form is familiar Means...

I don’t know if it’s Luna, the moon goddess in Roman mythology, or Selene, the moon goddess in Greek mythology, or Artinis, the moon goddess in Greek mythology… Which one is the clone or projection of… It’s really interesting… "
