Maybe even Beatrice never thought that there would be a day when she would be freed from numbness.
Thinking of this, the corners of Beatrice's mouth rose slightly.
It was a smile that looked very similar to his usual one, but at this moment it gave people an especially strange feeling.
"Lady Beatrice, are you really... okay?"
Noticing this scene, the worry in Irelandna's eyes became more obvious.
She even felt that the Beatrice in front of her was no longer the gentle and kind Beatrice she was once most familiar with.
That smile is just like...a devil?
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Irelandna always felt that she had noticed a similar smile on Morning Star's face.
That was a chilling smile that only a devil could show.
"Of course I'm fine. How could anything go wrong at such a joyful and happy moment?"
Beatrice explained, touching her lower abdomen inconspicuously with her right hand.
She could still clearly feel the temperature and magical fluctuations coming from the mark that represented a farewell to the past.
Chapter 84: The Scenery of the Elf Forest
"Your Highness, Ye Yue said...you were looking for me?"
In Morning Star's room, in addition to Melody who was unable to resist, Agnes and Ye Yue also returned to the room.
But compared to Melodie and Ye Yue who knew what had happened, Agnes' eyes flashed with a rare surprise.
At least she could see that His Highness's expression was not very good.
Agnes had rarely seen the other person look so serious.
Whether dealing with the rebels or going to war with the Dawn Nation, Morning Star always seemed to be in complete control of the situation.
But this time...
Agnes knew that something bad had definitely happened.
But everything for the Dogtooth High Collar is almost coming to an end, and all that is left is for His Highness to give Craig the final "finishing touch".
As for the Holy Empire, the trouble on Blood Moon Island made it impossible for the Holy Empire to escape.
The only possibility left at this time is...
"Is it about the Forest of Elves, Your Highness?"
Agnes reacted quickly and identified the source of the whole incident almost instantly!
She could also guess that His Highness did not even call her through the video ring, but instead called her through Ye Yue, which was rare.
This means that the situation in the Elf Forest might be very complicated, to the extent that even the magic props used for communication might be eavesdropped!
At the same time, this also means that His Highness intends to...
I went to the Elf Forest in person!
"Agnes, what do you think of... the current Elf Queen Sahira?"
Chenxing hugged Agnes, who leaned into his arms very naturally, and asked softly.
"According to rumors and the intelligence we have, the current Elf Queen is quite powerful. With the help of the ancient elven tree, her overall strength may be slightly stronger than mine and the Holy Trial in a local battle. But if it is a fight to the death, she will definitely lose!"
Agnes's answer was also very simple and direct.
The Forest of Elves has been strong for so many years, and has always been only slightly weaker than the Holy Kingdom. Naturally, it is not weak in terms of overall strength or individual abilities.
Not to mention the existence of the ancient elven trees, which are enough to increase the elves' strength several times when fighting on their home turf.
This is also the reason why no one dared to take any action on the Elf Forest, a piece of fat meat that would make all kingdoms and races drool.
Even if the Holy Empire were to go there in person, it would gain absolutely no benefit and might even lose miserably!
Although Agnes's answer was simple, it also pointed out the weakness of the Elf Forest.
The current condition of the ancient elven tree!
Other kingdoms may still be unable to figure it out and dare not take the gamble.
But the Kingdom of Grulith, or Grulith Morningstar and his close associates, are undoubtedly the ones who know the most about the ancient elven trees besides the elves!
It can be said that the Elf Forest was made by the ancient elven trees, and it will also fail because of the ancient elven trees.
The ancient elf trees could once give them the best shelter and the most powerful strength.
However, the ancient elven trees that have been polluted, weakened or even dying will also have a negative impact on the elves.
Even if the impact is not fatal, it's just like Agnes said.
A prolonged battle will only make the entire Elf Forest weaker and weaker, until the ancient elven trees are completely killed, which means that the Elf Forest will also be killed!
Chenxing is naturally very clear about this.
What Morning Star wanted to ask this time was not about the war, but about the strength of both sides.
"What I mean by tan is not strength, but...character, or identity or something like that..."
"Identity? I'm sorry, Your Highness, I don't know much about the Elf Queen, but if you want to take her for yourself, I can help you capture her!"
Agnes said confidently and firmly.
The Elf Queen, who is protected by the ancient elven tree, is indeed very powerful.
However, with the ancient elven tree in its current state, Agnes still has a way to defeat it, even if she has to face most of the elven army in the entire Elf Forest at the same time.
Even if Chenxing liked and asked her to take the Elf Forest alone as a gift, she would not hesitate at all.
"Don't be so impatient. If you just capture people or occupy the entire Elf Forest, it would be a shame for the good show that the Elf Queen has performed for us!"
Morning Star smiled.
But this smile looked more like a sneer of anger.
Sahira, or to be more precise, the elf who is "playing" Sahira now, is indeed not suitable to be the Elf Queen of the Elf Forest.
Regardless of whether it was just an act for Morningstar and the Kingdom of Grullit, judging from the results alone, Sahira really bought precious time for the Forest of Elves.
During the time that Morningstar came to Dogfang High Collar, she could have been more ruthless and taken the opportunity to completely quell the chaos within the Elf Forest.
Perhaps the ancient elven tree will remain in that state, but it will allow the Elf Forest to have more options and a longer response time.
But the fact is......
Sahira's kindness had harmed her.
It can also be said that it was her sister, the real Sahira's kindness that harmed her!
Regardless of whether Sahira intentionally concealed her true identity to deceive Morning Star or she had no choice but to do so, it did not prevent Morning Star from having to and would definitely deal with the "hidden dangers" brought by other adventers.
Rather, it is precisely because of this series of circumstances that Morningstar has such a good opportunity.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?"
"I wonder if my queen would like to enjoy the scenery of the Elf Forest?"
Morningstar held Agnes's white hand.
It's already clear what you want to do.
"As long as I'm with His Highness, I can do anything."
Agnes did not hesitate at all.
Even if it wasn't an action against the Elf Forest, she would have agreed to it immediately.
What's more, as long as we complete this step of the Forest of Elves, your Highness' wish will be one step closer to fulfillment!
When the entire south is incorporated into the territory of the Kingdom of Grullit, it means that the day when the war with the Holy Kingdom will officially begin is not far away!
Thinking of this, Agnes' eyes clearly flashed with excitement that could be called fighting spirit.
Apart from her "daily activities" with Chenxing, standing on the field was the only thing that could make her feel this kind of interest and pleasure!
And this is for His Highness, for the Kingdom of Grullit, and for future wars!
"Claire has also replied. All the details have been arranged. We are just waiting for the show to officially begin, and..."
After Chenxing finished speaking, he looked at Melody, who had remained silent, with interest.
"Ms. Melody should also be looking forward to the 'scenery' of the Elf Forest, right? After all, here you can have your good students with you. As a teacher, you must take good care of your students. If you accidentally let your students 'go astray'..."
Chapter 4000: Serfanie (+)
"Didn't they say that the coming-of-age ceremony will be resumed today?"
"Yes, several elders have clearly stated that they will restart the coming-of-age ceremony today. Elder Caroline also said that she has something important to announce..."
"But the Queen didn't seem to say anything. Do you think it could be..."
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know! Elder Caroline has done so much for us, how could she do something that would harm the Elf Forest?"
"You mean the Queen will!"
In the square of the Elf Forest, except for the elves who still have tasks to perform, almost everyone gathered here, waiting for the elders who promised to restart the coming-of-age ceremony to show up.
But it has been almost two hours since the agreed time, and no one has come.
This inevitably caused a lot of discussion among the elves present.
After all, during this period of time, all kinds of rumors about the Elf Queen have been emerging one after another.
Some people said that their queen had not only left the Elf Forest many times without permission, but also left behind descendants with elven blood outside.
Naturally, most people are unwilling to believe such remarks.
For the Elf Forest, the Elf Queen is not only a leader, but also the spiritual pillar of all the elves, especially in this special period when the Elf Ancient Tree is in its current situation.
The Elf Queen, who is still on the front line and always maintaining the vitality of the ancient elven tree, can even be said to be the god of the entire Elf Forest!
But at the same time, suspicion and distrust do not only appear among human or orc groups.
Even these elves who claim to be noble have desires and emotions that normal people should have, so naturally they cannot avoid...
Just like now, as many people trust their Elf Queen as there are people who will naturally doubt her.
Wherever the sun shines, there will always be shadows.
After all, just imagine, if the rumors were true, the entire Elf Forest would probably be destroyed by the Elf Queen Sahira, right?
And this scene in front of her was seen completely by Claire.
In the room on the giant tree, Claire was watching quietly, or to be more precise, admiring it all.
When disaster strikes, the future of a race is actually always in the hands of the race itself.
Where the future will go depends entirely on their own choices.
But this choice is not completely beyond intervention.
"What a pathetic bunch of idiots, aren't they?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind, accompanied by approaching footsteps.
But Claire never showed any intention of turning around.
During his time in the Forest of Elves, he had already become familiar with the owner of this voice.
"Maybe, but it has nothing to do with me. I just... hope the truth can be made public. Lady Caroline, is it really okay for us to keep these people hanging like this?"
Claire explained calmly.
The mocking smile on her face had long since disappeared, replaced by the nervousness and uneasiness that Claire, a half-elf, should have.
Almost no one could notice the clues, and Caroline, who was arrogant by nature, never realized it.
After all, to her, Claire posed no threat to her, either in terms of strength or status.
Without background and strength, what can you use to threaten her?
Not to mention that the other party's identity is actually the dark material of the current Elf Queen.
With such a "prop" that is easy to control and not dangerous, Caroline is a little glad that she chose to go to the Grullit Kingdom.
