Make the dragon great again

Chapter 145 Demon God Species Isanata?
"Elf Queen?"

Adrian looked at the "Tree of Life" Isanata, which was about ten times taller than his own body, in front of him, wondering if there might be some kind of trap inside.

At the same time, Adrian also dug out the Dragon Clan's record of the Elf Clan and its social structure from the incomplete memory of inheritance.

The elves recognized by the Gaia species are long-lived races that only appeared at the end of the first era [Age of Gods], but the elves recognized by the Dragon Clan are actually "radiant elves"—a kind of immortality race in the Age of Gods. A fantasy species that was born in the middle period and belongs to the ancient species sequence, also known as "ancient elves".

Ordinary longevity elves are divided into three types: gold elves, silver elves, and wood elves according to different innate tendencies and physical characteristics, while the shining elves have all the talents of the first three, and their growth limit is also similar to that of the ancient species. The dragon is the same, able to reach the eighth level [natural disaster].

Anyone can imagine that there must be a connection between the shining elves and the three great elves of the longevity species, but it is still unknown whether the two are related by blood inheritance like the giant dragon and the inferior dragon, or something else , even the Dragon Clan does not know the real answer to this.

The society of elves is a kind of tolerant and special matrilineal society. There is no noble class in elves, and the social structure is only roughly divided into three layers: queens, elders, and ordinary elves;

The king is the ruler of the elves and must be inherited by a woman, and [the queen] is the supreme ruler of every elf tribe;
The Council of Elders is the middle-level management organization of the elves, but unlike the queen, whether an elf can become an "elder" has nothing to do with gender, but only with age and strength;
As for ordinary elves, to put it bluntly, they are elves whose age and strength have not yet reached the [elder] level.

However, according to the inheritance memory of the Dragon Clan, the [Elder] of the Elf Clan must be a legendary elf, while the [Queen] can only be a seventh-rank female elf who has reached the peak of the longevity species.

In this era where legends cannot be born, this group of silver elves remaining on the continent of Sirias seems to still maintain that ancient social structure. Is there any problem in this?
"Queen... I thought there would be at least one [elder] waiting for me here first."

Adrian said this on purpose.

Fan Ya maintained a friendly smile and said:
"Maybe it's different from what you imagined, but in fact, including me, several [Forest Guardians] here are members of the Presbyterian Church. As for the [Elders]... for a reason you also know, we It has been a long time since a new [elder] was born, and the last [elder] of our line of silver elves returned to nature more than 1 years ago."

Returning to nature is the elves' expression of death, similar to the dragon's "returning to the origin of the world".

"It seems that you also know the existence of [Legendary Shackles]."

"[Legendary Shackles]... This is a very straightforward and appropriate title. We elves call it [Rule Barrier], which corresponds to [Continental Barrier]."

"It seems that a certain action of the seniors of our clan has also had a very profound impact on you."

Adrian said something pointedly, and Van Ya didn't know whether he understood the subtext or not, so he still kept smiling and said:

"There is no way around this, if those fantasy species are allowed to enter the Sirias continent after the [Battle of the Misty Sea], then both the Gaia species and our long-lived species will suffer unbearable disasters. "

Adrian narrowed his eyes slightly. It seems that these silver elves have a good understanding of the causes and consequences of the [Battle of the Fog Sea].

"Is that so...Let's talk about gossip after this, you can't keep your queen waiting for a long time now."

After getting some information, Adrian gently touched the subject.

"Then, Lord Adrian, please come with me, but because the core structure of Isana Tower is relatively fragile, please wait here for the remaining guests of the Dragon Clan."

Fay and Smaug originally wanted to object, but under Adrian's order, they finally chose to wait here.

"Anyway, it is impossible for elves at the legendary level to exist. Even if it is a trap, I am not afraid of it. '

With this thought in mind, Adrian shrunk his body down to the size of a human, followed Vanya who led the way, and entered the "Tree of Life" Isana Tower from a huge tree hole at the root.

——As for why you don’t need to transform into a humanoid form, that’s because Adrian feels that it’s a bit weird to become a half-blood elf in front of other pure-blood elves...

Behind the tree hole is the only passage inside the Isana Tower. Judging from its spiral structure, the passage seems to be dug out roughly along the annual rings of the trunk, or it is simply the growth process of the "tree of life". Such a helical hollow structure was actively generated in the paper.

Seemingly seeing Adrian's curiosity, Van Ya took the initiative to explain:
"The spiral structure leading to the heart of the tree is not artificially repaired by the elves, but is formed naturally during the growth of Isana Tower. Every thousand years, Isana Tower will complete a growth cycle, and Every time a growth is completed, there will be a new spiral structure inside the trunk, so we also call these structures [millennium rings]."

Adrian nodded, and subconsciously began to count the number of layers of this spiral structure.

However, before Adrian finished calculating, Van Ya went on to say:

"Isana Tower has a total of 2 laps [Millennium Wheel] so far, which corresponds to more than [-] years since the end of the Age of Gods... However, even we don't know whether Isana Tower is also [-] years old. not sure."

Adrian is not surprised by this. The three long-lived elves were born one after another in the last 2000 years of the Age of Gods. According to the records of the dragon clan, the silver elves were born after the gold elves and wood elves, and belonged to the youngest. The long-lived elves, just a few hundred years after the birth of the silver elves, [death] came, [the original dragon] then left the world of Ayla, and the [Age of Gods] ended...

Therefore, in the earliest memories of these silver elves, this "tree of life" Isana Tower already existed, and it is impossible to judge the age of Isana Tower from the [Millennium Wheel] outside the tree's heart.

——If these elves are really the same as those recorded in the inheritance memory of the Dragon Clan, and lack connection with the "ancient elves", that is, the shining elves.

In Adrian's wild imagination, the [-]th floor of the [Millennium Wheel] has already been completed, and under the guidance of Van Ya, he finally came to the heart of the tree in Isana Tower.

Standing in front of a gate completely made of vines and branches, Van Ya bowed slightly and said:

"I can only accompany you here. Without the Queen's permission, we cannot enter the heart of the Isana Tower, and the Queen is only willing to see you this time."

I always feel that there seems to be a problem, Adrian said:

"By the way, has your queen stayed in the heart of the tree all this time?"

"Yes, since [Battle of the Misty Sea] after 2000 years, every queen will never leave the tree heart of Isana Tower after her succession, and..."

Having said that, Fan Ya's expression became a little complicated.

"...And, after that, the queens of all dynasties will completely seal the heart of the tree after succeeding, even our [Presbyterian] members, and even the few [elders] who survived at the beginning, can only come here to listen The queen's voice, but I can no longer see the queen's true face."

Adrian was taken aback. He heard that this meant that the silver elf queens of all generations since the [Battle of the Misty Sea] completely sealed themselves in the heart of the tree from the moment they succeeded to the throne, and never saw anyone or came out until their death. ?

"Hey, why am I telling you this? Please enter the heart of the tree as soon as possible. The queen will surely answer all the questions in your heart... Also, if possible, please send my greetings to the queen. .”

After all, Van Ya, whose expression became a bit complicated, bowed slightly again, and retreated to the next floor [Millennium Wheel]. Only Adrian was left before the gate.

"Looking at this, it is because of certain changes caused by the [Battle of the Misty Sea] that the queens of the silver elves have become unable to leave the throne... and that male elf, Vanya, seems to have a certain relationship with the current queen of the silver elves. Some special relationships! I hope it’s not the kind of bloody plot of ‘I like you and you like me but we just can’t be together’...”

After complaining in his heart, Adrian walked towards the door made of vines and branches.

As if sensing the approach of the guests, these vines and branches retreated to both sides under the traction of some special force, opening the final door into the heart of the tree.

The heart of the Isana Tower is a completely vertical cylindrical hollow with a diameter of less than 100 meters. Logically speaking, such a closed space should be very dark, but a beam of gentle sunlight can be seen from the hollow of the tree. The seemingly closed top fell down, illuminating the entire heart of the tree.

This beam of sunlight that somehow penetrated the canopy and the outer wall of the trunk hits the center of the hollow in the center of the tree, where a trapezoidal pyramid-shaped obsidian high platform stands alone, with thick or thin plant roots clinging to it. On the high platform, and entangled with each other on the high platform to build a soothing high-back chair.

A female elf in a long white dress with silver hair hanging down to her feet is sitting on this high-backed chair with her eyes closed, seemingly sleeping and breathing weakly.

Presumably this is the silver elf queen, but Adrian was completely unable to shift his attention to the elf queen who invited him at this time, his eyes were completely attracted by the obsidian high platform!

Adrian is really familiar with such a high platform with such an appearance and structure:

The container that held Adrian for more than so many years when he was a dragon egg; the only thing that Adrian could see after he broke out of the shell, except for the wall and a door that seemed to never be opened ;The thing that was positioned among the "bed", "seat", and "pillow" in the 118 years before Adrian's dragon life...

——The source energy core [throne] of the dungeon!

From the appearance alone, the obsidian high platform in the heart of the [Tree of Life] Isanata is exactly the same as the [Throne] used by Adrian to drive the dungeon and store void feedback!
Just as Adrian was in shock, a soft, ethereal female voice echoed in the heart of the tree out of thin air.

"Hello, Adrian the Dragon."

Adrian forced himself to recover from the shock, looked at the elf queen who was still motionless on the high platform and still maintained a sleeping posture, and said with some uncertainty:
"Silver Elf Queen?"

The soft and ethereal female voice echoed in the heart of the tree again:
"You can call me Niya, Queen of the Elf, that is, the ex-wife of the [Forest Guardian] just now..."

Adrian hadn't had time to complain in his heart, when he heard the "Elf Queen" say something that made him even more horrified.

"...Of course, you can also call me Isanata, or in the words you dragons are familiar with, you can also call me--the heir of [World Tree]."

Adrian's pupils contracted sharply, his body tensed instantly, and his four claws pierced the wooden layer under his feet under the effect of muscle tension, and the dragon's might full of danger began to spread.

[World Tree] is one of the first gods in the world of Ayla. It is a true god that surpasses the tenth-order demon god species of the four proto-dragons and has the same personality as [Original Dragon]!
And the descendants of [World Tree], combined with the intelligence analysis of [Millennium Wheel], it only means one fact:
The "Elf Queen" Niya in front of me, or the "Tree of Life" Isanata that surrounded Adrian, is a fantasy species that has survived for at least 2 years!There may even be a demon god who can be called a "half god"!

How could I be so reckless and enter the body of a phantom species that has survived at least 2 years? !
The sudden shock of information made Adrian really panic for the first time since the battle with the skeleton dragon Yelans, and he didn't even have time to recall that "Phantom species after the Age of Gods will also be limited by the lifespan limit, surviving 2 The fact that the year is too unbelievable", he tensed his body and let out a dangerous growl, entering a stance ready to fight at any time.

Facing Adrian, who exuded a dangerous aura and became very emotionally unstable, the voice of the elf queen, or the unknown woman directly called Isanata, once again echoed in the heart of the tree.

"It seems that your sense of crisis is very strong. This is much better than the white dragon who detonated the fragments of the godhead... But please relax, I am not your enemy, and now I am very weak and can only barely resist The rules of [Death] survive, there is absolutely no extra power that can be used to hurt you, and, I think at least this [Void Gate] should be able to dispel most of your concerns."

After hearing this, Adrian took a deep breath and finally regained his senses.

Yes, among other things, [Death], the bottom-level rule of the world that was finally established in the world of Ayla, is an iron law that even the demons and even the first gods cannot completely resist. It is not clear whether it is the "life" of the demons. Tree", it is already a miracle that it can survive till now...

"The gate of the void?"

Adrian, who still maintained his posture of preparing for battle, had another question.

"The first time you came in, your eyes focused on the [Void Gate], you must have recognized this artifact that was forged by the four ancestor dragons of your dragon clan, right?"

Adrian buried the shock deeply in his eyes, and slightly restrained his combat-ready posture of spreading his wings and arching his back, with his four claws firmly grasping the ground.

"I call it the [Throne] or the [Power Core], but how do I know if what you say is true?"

Niya, Queen of the Elf, was still sitting on the obsidian high platform [Void Gate], maintaining a sleeping posture, and Isanata's voice echoed again:

"...Sure enough, there seems to be a big deviation or omission in your inheritance memory. From this point of view, Bahamut's plan may have failed, and he has probably fallen into the depths of the void."

To be continued, change first and then change.

I really want to go through the detailed outline first, but I don’t have time. Orz
