Chapter 437 The Elf Legend Following Secretly

Elder Ricardo breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Li Si and Cecil return to the base on time.

Someone was arranged to take Li Si and the other man to their room to rest, and Ricardo also returned to his room.

Even he was a little tired after the long journey these days.

Of course, it was more because we spent more time on guarding against danger along the way.

After returning to the room, Ricardo closed the door gently and saw a figure sitting by the window.

Ricardo did not show any surprise, but bowed slightly and said respectfully:

"Your Majesty Alvis, may the light of the World Tree shine upon you!"

"I wonder what your orders are?"

Ricardo was respectful. Although he was an elder of the Ilithel family, the one standing in front of him was a powerful legendary crown.

Although this team of the Ilithel family was led by Elder Ricardo on the surface, he was very clear that the Elf King's Court had actually arranged a legendary crown to follow the team in secret.

There is no way around it. Ricardo is well aware of the current predicament of the Elf King's Court.

No matter what methods and means were used, those who were hiding in the dark and doing the work were not found.

Therefore, we specially asked His Majesty Alvis to follow the team in secret. On the one hand, it was to protect the sun elves who were away, and on the other hand, it was to see if we could catch those people.

Ricardo was originally happy that Li Si was able to discover and kill a gold-level assassin who secretly attacked Cecil.

As long as the other party can't help but take action, they will eventually find a clue.

However, the news that came later was not very good.

The other Sun Elves were attacked on their way to the city of Arcot. Although the guards successfully protected the Sun Elves of the Ilith family, they ultimately did not get any useful information from the assassins.

Those assassins died instantly when they were caught. It must be some method used by the mastermind to prevent information leakage.

If His Majesty Alvis had been present at the time, he might have been able to obtain some intelligence, but he was in the city of Akote and it was too late when he rushed over.

Ricardo hoped that the other party would be unable to resist taking action when they saw their elf team, but it seemed that because all the people they sent out were wiped out, the enemy lurking in the dark completely restrained their actions.

All the way from Arcot City to the Emerald City, even though the legendary ranger Alvis carefully explored, he did not find any clues.

Those people seemed to have completely disappeared.

"Ricardo, thank you for your hard work during this period."

The young and handsome elf nodded slightly and said, then turned his gaze to the city outside the window, which was much more vibrant than the Elf Royal Court.

There was a gloomy look on Alvis's handsome face. He was in a bad mood as he had gained nothing along the way.

If we were to talk about the things that happened in the Elf King's Court, who would be the most uneasy people? It would probably be these legendary powerful ones.

People like Ricardo, although they are high-ranking officials in the Elf Royal Court, they are not aware of some secrets.

For example, what happened this time in the Elf King's Court, the attack on the Sun Elves made legendary strongmen like Alvis feel deeply uneasy.

No matter how hard they tried, they found no clues.

These legendary warriors seemed to be unable to do anything, just as powerless as ordinary people.

What Ricardo and his companions didn't know was that they had actually already prayed to the elven gods for help, but what was disturbing was that they didn't get a response from any of the elven gods.

This is very abnormal!
If the Sun Elves feel angry about the assassination, but do not receive a response from the gods, they will feel uneasy or even fearful.

Although the elven gods had previously issued oracles that the main world of Gaia would usher in new great changes, chaos and war would soon cover the entire Gaia world, the Abyss, and countless other planes and small planes.

Even Corellon Larethian, the chief god of the elven pantheon [creator, guardian, and ruler of the elves], cannot peek into the past, present, and future of the world of Gaia.

Even though the Elf Kingdom had made some preparations, it did not expect that the connection with the elven gods would be severed.

This has never happened before!

This meant that the Elf Royal Court would not receive help from the gods, at least in the short term. The Elf Legends, who were already somewhat uneasy, felt a shadow in their hearts when faced with the Elf Royal Court's attack on the Sun Elves.

Pompey Ilithel, the mayor of the Elf King's Court and also the patriarch of the Ilithel family, judged that this matter must involve the involvement of a being above the legendary level.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Elf Royal Court to discover nothing when using the arrangements and power left by the elven gods.

It is not known which evil god wants to attack the Elf Royal Court, but no matter who it is, it is too unreasonable to cut off the connection between the Elf Royal Court and the Elf Gods.

Alvis would rather believe that this was the result of some abnormal changes in the world, and that the evil god was just taking advantage of the opportunity.

Attacking the sun elves to extract their blood, perhaps in order to study the source of the power of the elven gods?
However, the entire Elf Royal Court is not too worried, as these are the best the other party can do.

Even if there really is an evil god secretly planning all this, the other party will definitely be restricted by Gaia's main world.

The arrangements made by the elven gods in the Elf Royal Court are sufficient to deal with external dangers.

Therefore, this kind of attack from the dark is the most troublesome.

Patriarch Pompeii is right!
Alvis stood up and stood in front of the window, watching the sky gradually darken outside.

Even if the evil power was involved, it would be impossible for the Elf King's Court to not find any clues.

It is very likely that there may be a traitor among the high-ranking officials of the Elf King's Court, who is secretly assisting those believers of the evil god, which is why those people can act so smoothly in the Elf King's Court.

This time, Ricardo and he were arranged to go out and pick up those day elves in order to catch the opponent's flaws.

It turned out that Pompey was right, but he did not seize the opportunity.

If I had known, I should have set off earlier.

Alvis felt a little regretful because there were several sun elves to be received by the team this time, so he chose to stay in Akot City to deal with any unexpected situations.

But subsequent developments were not what he expected.

All I can say is that one step slow leads to another, and it seems that there is no chance of catching the other party on the way back to the Elf King's Court from the City of Akot.

"This is what I should do."

Ricardo also said with some regret that although he didn't know much, it was a good thing for him that all the sun elves could return safely to the Elf Royal Court.

Now every sun elf is very precious to the Ilithel family, and the family cannot afford any greater losses.

"Is there anything abnormal about that human?"

Alvis thought for a moment, then looked at Ricardo and asked.

Ricardo chose to invite Li Si to the Elf King's Court, which surprised Alvis.

Although Alvis was promoted to a legendary ranger, he was not as old as Ricardo, the elder of the family.

In his impression, Ricardo was actually an elf elder with rather stubborn and conservative ideas, and he had been opposed to Cecil's parents' affairs before. But he didn't expect that this time he would actually invite Li Si, a human, to the Elf King's Court.

Alvis had secretly observed the human named Li Si. He was quite young and very powerful.

This is the case with humans. Although their lifespan is not as long as that of elves, they grow up too fast.

This is also why humans now dominate the world of Gaia, and the gods of the human pantheon also occupy the most positions in the pantheon.

Alvis was a little surprised, but when he asked Ricardo before, the other party replied that this was because Li Si was also one of the participants in this incident, and this was also recognized by the patriarch of Pompeii.

After learning Ricardo's reasons, Alvis did not object.

After all, as the elder of the Ilithel family, Ricardo has always been conscientious, and even if he is a legendary strong man, we must respect the other party's opinions.

Not to mention the recognition of the clan leader.

However, Alvis seemed to sense a familiar aura from Li Si, which made him a little hesitant.

"No problem. There is nothing abnormal about that human so far."

Ricardo paused for a moment and said hesitantly:

"I think you're worrying too much. If it was really planned by those people, they wouldn't have chosen a human, right?"

"maybe."

Alvis said lightly, and then he no longer paid attention to the matter.

"Let's set out from the Emerald City tomorrow and speed up to get back to the royal court as soon as possible."

"In this situation, I guess those people on the road won't continue to attack."

Since we know there is no chance, we should return to the Elf King's Court as soon as possible.

Although he knew that the Elf King's Court and his family would not be in danger because of his departure, he felt more at ease returning to the Elf King's Court at this time.

"I understand."

Ricardo nodded. He had the same idea as Alvis.

As soon as he finished speaking, Alvis disappeared from the room.

On the second day, outside the Emerald Capital,

After a day of brief rest, the team led by Ricardo continued their journey back to the Elf King's Court.

After a while, Li Si felt something was wrong.

It was obvious that the entire team was moving forward much faster than before. Not to mention Cecil, even some of the elf guards in the team found it difficult to keep up.

Has anything changed?
Li Si was quite relaxed, but he also controlled his speed within a relatively reasonable range.

This speed of travel would make many people in the team quite tired, which would be very dangerous if they were attacked.

If you do this.
Either there is some other force protecting them secretly, or they have made sure that they will not encounter any more attacks on the road ahead.

Li Si had no expression on his face, but he raised his hand, grabbed Cecil's thin shoulders, and carried her forward.

Otherwise, as a mage, her frail body would definitely not be able to endure the journey.

Cecil looked at Li Si with gratitude. She didn't think too much about it. Even with the help of the Swift Magic Tower, it would be difficult for her to keep up with the team.

However, she did not raise any objection to Ricardo, as he knew it was more dangerous in the wild at this time.

It would be nice to be able to return to the Elf King's Court sooner.

The journey back to the Elf King's Court was quite peaceful, even a little boring.

But maybe this is normal.

As children of the Great Forest of Navia, the elves rarely encounter attacks from wild beasts and monsters in the forest.

Even those monsters that would attack the elves did not dare to attack directly after noticing this powerful team.

Ricardo asked the entire team to rest for a while and arranged for the rangers in the team to go ahead and investigate the situation.

Li Si handed the water bag in his hand to Cecil and asked with a smile:

"Are you okay?"

Seven more days had passed since Li Si and his companions left the Emerald City. Ricardo was returning to the Elf King's Court at almost the fastest speed that a silver-level professional could bear.

Of course, thanks to this speed, they were only about three days away from the Elf King's Court.

"fine."

Cecil wiped the sweat from her forehead, brushed off the dust from the stones, and sat down against a lush tree.

She was not polite. Because of Li Si's help, she felt a little more relaxed than when she went to the Emerald City before.

"I haven't been to the Elf King's Court yet. Cecil, can you tell me what that city is like?"

Li Si glanced at the others who were busy, thought for a moment, and then sat down next to Cecil.

As for the Elf King's Court, he really didn't know much about the situation in that city.

Unlike the Emerald City, by the time the Great Forest of Navia, also known as the Forest of Elves, was opened to players, the Elf King's Court had already been destroyed.

As a player, all Li Si saw was a stone ruin covering the entire plain. Only a few remaining stone pillars and the exquisite reliefs on them could bear witness to the former glory of this place.

"The Elf King's Court"

Cecil was not surprised. The Elf King's Court was different from the Emerald City. Normally, it was quite difficult for a human to enter that city.

Although Cecil did not have very good memories of the Elf King's Court, she did not deny that this oldest city in the Elf Kingdom did carry the long and rich history of the elves.

Time is almost at a standstill in that city. Every building and every pattern may be a trace left by an elven hero countless years ago.

Not to mention the ancient altar in the center of the city, which is said to be the place where the World Tree took root in the earth and the Gaia world.

There are many relics like this in the Elf King's Court. The Ilissair family has protected these places very well, as if only this can better represent the source of their bloodline heritage.

Cecil didn't care too much about it. Although the World Tree was the highest belief of the elves, it had disappeared for too long and had never responded to any believer.

This means that there are not many elves who believe in the World Tree.

Just as Cecil was introducing the Elf Royal Court to Li Si, an Elf Ranger came running back in a hurry.

"Elder Ricardo, there's something wrong with the road ahead!"
