Chapter 673 Heart of Nature
Malfurio glanced at Ranhir, said nothing, turned to Lucian, Natasha, and Atlante: "I'm sorry for this, Ferragond put his preferences above the life and death of the entire elven race, and I don't agree with his view, humans are undoubtedly part of nature."
He did not angrily denounce the "Nature Hate" or bring the matter to life, but expressed his views and apologies very proportionately, so that Lucian and the others understood that Ferragond did not represent all elves, on the contrary, he was a minority, otherwise there would be no need to ask for help from the Magic Council.
"If there is one less hateful elf to cause trouble next to us, I think our investigation will go more smoothly." Lucian accepted Malfurion's apology and replied with a graceful smile.
"Vengeance Hunter" Ranhir had a pair of silver-white deep eyes, calm inside, and said in a voice like a song: "Thank you for not minding Ferragond's faux pas, I will take you to Her Majesty."
He did not say anything about deliberately provoking a dispute between the "natural haters" and the "natural balancers" represented by Mafurio.
Under his leadership, Lucian and the three of them crossed the azure lake and flew towards the "elf tree" that could form a forest with branching trunks.
The tree house is dotted with small yellow and white flowers, exuding a refreshing fragrance.
"There is really a feeling of purity of mind here, I feel that my creative inspiration is constantly flowing ......" Natasha sincerely praised the natural beauty, "At night, under the silver moonlight, it will shine on the elf lake, swaying with layers of sparkling light, which will form the most suitable real scene for your "moonlight"."
Lucian smiled and nodded: "In such an environment, my whole heart is calm, if you like it here, we can settle here."
Natasha laughed dryly: "If I stay for two or three weeks, my musician soul will gradually disappear, and the chivalrous and vulgar side will emerge.
It's too late...... Lucian himself was joking, and compared to the "natural abode", Alinge, which was full of arcane discussions and disputes, was more suitable for him.
Malfurio said from the side: "Although we tried our best to keep the news of the upheaval in the Stroop Forest, the people of the Kotao in the sea seemed to have sensed something and provoked disputes one after another, so Intise went to the Endless Ocean to help Garter defend, while Celinda and Lodel guarded the gaps in the abyss on the other side of the forest."
"Therefore, only Her Majesty the Empress and the three of us are left here."
Gard is the legendary druid "Azure Favor" of the Sea Elf clan, due to his long life, he has accumulated a second-order level, and Intise is the moon elf legend "Moonfall Wind", and like Ranhir, he relies on his own talent to advance, because he is not very old, he has just been promoted less than a hundred years ago, and he is still a legendary first-order.
Selinde and Lodel are the other two members of the Druid Elders, the former is a dryad, the "Green Guardian", and the legendary second order, and the latter is a human, the "balancing hand", legendary first order.
"Great Elder, it doesn't matter, after checking the 'Elf Tree' and the Fallen Demonized Elves, we will go to the Abyss Rift as soon as possible to consult Selinda and Lodel about the situation." As soon as Lucian stepped into the tree trunk before he stepped into the treehouse, he felt a deep and heavy pulse of life coming from the soles of his feet.
Natasha moved her right foot, as if she was carefully sensing the situation of the "Elf Tree", and Atlanta also opened her eyes, the dim light in her pupils flickered and changed, and she looked around thoughtfully.
Led by "Vengeful Hunter" Ranhill, Lucian, Natasha, and Atlant walked through treehouses and followed a naturally formed gap deep into the "Elf Tree".
The surrounding color gradually changed from brown-green to dark green, and when it reached the deepest part, a little milky white and holy light shone out of the light green, as if it contained the purest and most fundamental life force.
These green-dipped dots of light surround a heart-like emerald green, creating a vibrant and vibrant situation.
This "heart" seems to be nothing, the bright light is unpredictable, as if it cannot be touched or approached, and green pipes like blood vessels extend above it, connecting with the surrounding tree trunks, and the translucent light green liquid and light continue to flow in and out along them.
"Heart of Nature...... Lucian and Natasha sighed in the spiritual connection at the same time.
This is the most fundamental thing of the elf clan, the core of the "elf tree", as long as there is a "natural heart", they can let the "elf tree" grow again after moving to other places, forming a maze.
Initially, there were five "Hearts of Nature", but as time passed, two became the main materials of the legendary pinnacle item, and two disappeared, leaving only the Stroop Forest still holding the last glory of the elves.
Moreover, this is also the most powerful "Heart of Nature", after being semi-fused with it, the elf queen Aglaia broke through the restrictions and became the peak of legends - this is also the reason why the elves have always maintained a legendary peak!
Of course, it must be a legendary third-order powerhouse semi-fused "Heart of Nature" to advance to the top.
In the "Heart of Nature", there stood a vague blonde figure, she was trying to eliminate those black spots, but for some reason, with the strength of her legendary peak, the progress was also extremely slow.
"Thank you to the three representatives of the council for coming to help." The appearance of the blonde figure gradually became clear, pure and beautiful, full of maturity and majesty, her appearance was difficult to describe, and she looked like Ellestein's sister rather than her mother.
"It's really tasteful......" It wasn't Lucian who sighed like a "gentleman", but Natasha, but she quickly woke up and smiled at Lucian in the spiritual connection, "Don't worry, I just appreciate it."
Malfurio introduced Lucian and the three to Aglaia, and she nodded slightly: "Please investigate as soon as possible, no matter what the final outcome is, the elves will send their thanks."
She didn't say it too clearly, as if she wanted to wait until the matter was over before deciding what to be thankful for.
Lucian came this time, the main purpose is to maintain allies, the private purpose is to exchange, and he will not take the things of the elves for nothing, so he did not take this opportunity to threaten him, but said to Aglaia, who was wearing a long dress of tender green leaves: "Your Majesty, then we will start checking."
"Okay, I can keep the spirit tree from continuing to be polluted and removed slowly, but I'm worried that as the gap expands, the 'Abyssal Will' will come directly, which will be troublesome." Aglaia expressed her thoughts, and her greatest concern was the condition of the Abyssal Rift.
Lucian walked to the "Heart of Nature" and made a difficult and mysterious voice from his mouth: "Mirror of Destiny."
The surrounding environment suddenly became much darker, and then in this gloom, countless firefly-like points of light emerged, condensed in front of Lucian, forming a mirror covered with deep mysterious patterns.
When Muskelin and McLeod refined the "Mirror of Destiny", it was based on this legendary magic!
The mirror was hazy, but as the crystal ball in Lucian's left hand flew in, it was like a boulder falling into the middle of the lake, rippling layer by layer, showing black spots inside, and getting bigger and bigger.
But at this moment, the black spot wriggled, ferocious, and seemed to contain all the chaos and killing in the world, and it had a strong hatred and wanted to destroy everything.
"Pop", the mirror condensed by light made a crisp sound like a real mirror shattering, and turned back into fluttering fireflies, scattered in mid-air.
Lucian frowned slightly, as if he had grasped something, so he continued to use other magic checks, and Atlante also used his own magic to identify.
After a while, Lucian stopped and said to Natasha: "Give the black spot a sword, don't cut the life passage of the 'Heart of Nature'."
What he didn't say was "This is an exercise in your fine control", otherwise Aglaia and Malfurio's faces would definitely not look good.
And Natasha understood Lucian's meaning, and immediately narrowed her eyes, like a cheetah ready to go, and then drew the Sword of Truth, and her whole body was integrated into the sword light.
She had already seen Lucian holding the "Moon's Clock" in his right hand, and understood that if he had a slight problem, he would use "Advanced Time Stop" to stop him to prevent him from hurting the "Heart of Nature".
With a flash of sword light, Natasha's figure resurfaced, and a black spot stuck to the green pipe suddenly split in half, constantly twisting under the illusory gap, and it took tens of seconds to slowly dissolve.
Lucian quietly gave Natasha a thumbs up, and then said seriously: "The essence of power is close to god-like, so magic such as the 'Mirror of Destiny' can only be vaguely hinted, and it is initially suspected that it is the breath of the Abyssal Will, but this is not sure, there are other ways to cause it, the typical is to use the power of the 'Heart of Nature' itself."
"Yes, there are other possibilities!" Before Atlante, Aglaia, Malfurion, and Ranhir could speak, a clear voice filled with anger came from behind.
The spiritual force field spread, and Lucian "saw" a male elf with dark green hair walking into his back, he looked young, but the patterns on his neck and hands were diverse and beautiful, holding a cane like a natural branch in his hand, glaring at Lucian and the others, "This is a natural punishment!"
He said loudly: "You humans have opened one alchemy workshop after another, polluting the blue sky and water sources, harming nature, and your greed is also unrestrained, destroying forests and killing animals, so I notice that nature has become hatred, and this hatred is reflected in the 'heart of nature', so there are signs of degeneration and pollution!"
"It's all your fault!"
"Ferragond, shut up." Mafurion's old voice said in a low voice.
This elf is the Archdruid, the "Nature Avenger", the wood elf Ferragond.
Although it is instinctive to make a profit, no workshop owner wants to add an additional environmental protection fee, but after he became a great arcanist, the Affairs Committee is very strict in this regard, and the magicians also know their tough attitude, and they are unwilling to offend a great arcanist in this matter, otherwise the compulsory task will be arranged casually, it will be a certain death.
They may not be willing to abide by the law, but they are not disgusted by the "elemental order" usage fee, which seems to have the nature of a "protection fee".
For such a situation, Lucian could only sigh that domineering is better than kingship.
The only problem is that some small workshops built by the nobles themselves, among them, in the Kingdom of Holm, there is Natasha who puts pressure on the cabinet and is in good condition, while the other three countries have more or less some pollution facts.
However, now is not the time to argue with Ferragond about this issue, Lucian turned his head directly to look at Aglaia: "Your Majesty, we are not welcome?"
Aglaia was silent for a moment and said sternly: "Ferragond, get out!"
"Her Majesty...... Ferragond wanted to say something, but found that the circulation of the "Heart of Nature" was accelerating, and the coercion of the legendary peak spread, so he snorted coldly and turned his head to leave.
In the psychic connection, Natasha said slightly puzzled: "If he is not having difficulty controlling his hatred, then his actions just now seem to be to deliberately get angry with us? Or destroy the relationship between the council and the elves?"
They worked hard to come to the rescue, but they had to face this kind of treatment, and normal people would not be able to stand it and choose to leave angrily.
Lucian said calmly: "I know, so I didn't argue with him, and directly left the problem to the queen to deal with to see what their attitude was."
"A very mature and rational approach without losing grace...... at this point, Atlante said with a communication technique.
