Chapter 183 Who Is the Guardian of the World Tree?
The morning breeze in the Abandoned Land is a little dry.
The morning breeze blowing on this land would make people a little upset, not to mention Alicia's mood at this time was not calm.
"Go away!"
Alicia lifted her feet.
He pushed the little rabbit that was standing in front of him and barking wildly into a corner of the room.
In human hands is a sapling of the world tree.
Alicia is very clear about this.
And as the Elf Queen, she also knows the origin of that World Tree very well!
It was a seedling planted by the moon elves around the Moon Shadow Forest, and humans...the outsiders who suddenly appeared in the elves' vision took one of the saplings away.
If it had been in the past, Alicia might not have cared too much.
but now……
The sound transmission from World Tree was like a blow to the head, knocking her head a little buzzing.
According to the legend of the elves, the first World Tree was planted on this land by the God of Nature himself.
Therefore, this ancient tree, whose existence is closely connected with the gods, has a meaning that no other creation has.
Even since thousands of years ago, the World Tree has always been a symbol of the elves, using its lush greenery and vitality to protect countless elves living on this land.
But now...
The status of the elves as the guardians of the World Tree is being challenged by humans!
To the north of the mountains is obviously the territory of the Antorians.
Although separated by the rolling mountains, Alicia didn't know what Antolia did to the seedlings of the World Tree, but there would never be an error in the World Tree's perception.
There is no doubt that humans take good care of the world tree seedlings.
But looking back at the Moon Elf clan...
Shrouded in black mist, every World Tree sapling growing on this land looked sickly.
Fortunately, it seems that the world tree at the moment does not know that the seedling in the north was planted by humans, which makes everything possible in the future.
A deal must be reached with humans before the elves plant trees next time!
Otherwise, Alicia will not be able to answer World Tree’s question!
Immediately afterwards, a letter sent from Antolia by the elf messenger Elta Shovel strengthened Alicia's thoughts.
In the letter, Elte not only explained the situation of the World Tree seedlings, but also told Alicia everything he saw in Antolia!
"To Fort Wilson!"
After finally calming down, Alicia said to the elf guards outside the door: "I want to visit the humans from the north again."
Of course she knew that at this moment, the young lord had already returned to his homeland north of the mountains.
Even if she went to Fort Wilson, she would probably miss the mark.
But now she has already made up her mind.
If Leon was not at Fort Wilson, then she would go to Antolia to visit in person.
Even if it's a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, he won't hesitate!
Alicia has always had a very clear self-positioning - the World Tree can lose the elves, but the elves can never lose the World Tree!
…
Giorny is writing a book.
As the plenipotentiary ambassador of Antolia in the Moon Shadow Forest, compared to Elte's shock in Antolia, Giorni's life is actually a bit boring.
Although this sounds like a good thing.
When he first arrived at the Forest of Moon Shadow, Qiaoerni was equally excited.
But in fact, when he actually lived in the Forest of Moon Shadow, he finally discovered... those legendary things like "The Story That the Paladin and the Elf Queen Have to Tell" were all fake!
The elves are really boring!
Due to the black mist surrounding them, the elves' activities have always been limited to this land called the Moon Shadow Forest.
Even in terms of area, this land is no smaller than Antoria before Leon took over, but as far as the eye can see, it is a dense forest, and there are various traps set by the moon elves in the deep forest.
For the sake of his own life, the only place where he could really move around freely was the camp of the Moon Elf clan.
The world tree hundreds of meters high, the eternal fire that has never been extinguished.
As a famous attraction in the Moon Elf camp, although it is impressive at first glance, but...he can't stare at the eternal fire every day, right?
so……
In order to pass the boring time while serving as a human messenger, Giorny simply picked up his previous hobbies.
In short, write a book.
There is a tree called Evergreen growing in the Moon Shadow Forest. Its wide leaves can be used as fine paper, which is roughly equivalent to the status of kraft paper in human society.
then……
In the midst of boredom, Qiaoerni started his own creation - "Notes on Observations of Moon Elf - A few things about me and elves".
Compared with the books that Giorni had come across before that contained all kinds of exaggerated words and Liu Bei's passages, what Giorni wrote this time was his most realistic experience in the Forest of Moon Shadow.
It's not that he decided to break away from his old self.
The main reason is that after all, he is the envoy of Antoria at this time, and he is on the territory of the moon elves at this moment. If he pulls some tricks from the book, it will at least cause a diplomatic incident that will surprise the allies.
And today...
Just as he was feeling the fragrance of the grass and trees outside the window, thoughts welled up for a moment...
The maid of Elf Queen Alicia made him a request from the Elf Queen.
Alicia plans to take a trip to Fort Wilson.
In order to take care of the face of the elves, she needed Qiaoerni to write a supplementary invitation letter for Alicia on behalf of Antolia.
In this way, Alicia's visit can be regarded as "coming by invitation."
Almost as soon as he heard this request, Leon's previous instructions suddenly entered Giorni's mind.
When Erte's letter was delivered to Alicia, Giorni, who was the envoy of Antolia, also received a letter from Antolia.
Elta Shovel, the elf messenger in Antolia, is observing everything happening in Antolia.
But in the Moon Shadow Forest, isn't it possible that Qiaoerni is watching every move of the elves?
The spread of black mist and the yellowing leaves of the World Tree have filled the hearts of almost all the elves living in this land with a depressing emotion.
And now, the opportunity to rip off has finally arrived!
Compared to the proactive promotion of the Antorians, some words are more credible when spoken by the elves.
so……
Alicia's trip must be about the Shadow Manipulator!
Almost in just a moment, Qiaoerni had already imagined Alicia's mood during this trip from his own mind.
Antolia is planted with saplings of the World Tree, and Fort Wilson, located in the abandoned land, is a new city built with the World Tree as the center!
Presumably when the young Elf Queen saw the World Tree, whose branches and leaves had turned yellow, regained its vitality...
She should agree to the price offered by the Antolians, right?
"I have already written the invitation letter."
Qiaoerni smiled and handed a letter that had been sealed with fire paint into the hands of the elf maid:
"Antorians will always be good friends and good partners of the Moon Elf clan!"
"Win-win cooperation and common progress have always been the pursuit of Mr. Leon Jimena, Marquis of Antolia!"
Qiaoerni straightened his collar, cleared his throat, and said sincerely.
