After returning from the elven land last time, Lan Xiaoyin was acquitted.
Naturally, Xu Sili didn’t know that he was the one who filmed the video of Xenos and his older brother being captured by the lizardmen, and then spread it to everyone.
If Xu Sili knew, he might’ve locked up Lan Xiaoyin for a few more days.
However, due to a strange combination of circumstances, Xenos actually established a beautiful, powerful and miserable persona in front of the players.
Even if his body had been repaired when he appeared again later, this couldn’t change the players’ first impression of him.
What the players were most curious about now was whether the black-haired man who was with him that day was dead or alive, and what their relationship was. Unfortunately, the place they lived wasn’t simple and the players couldn’t ask even if they wanted to.
As for Lan Xiaoyin, he still wasn’t allowed to enter and exit the palace freely. Chamo sent him away after confirming that he couldn’t save Asheng.
If he wanted to enter the palace, he could contact Chamo but it was another matter if Chamo ignored him.
In order to avoid being imprisoned again, Lan Xiaoyin didn’t dare to take risks.
In any case, the new elf queen was unconscious and it was useless to enter the palace. It was better to find the other elf NPCs first and see if they had any good ideas.
So after some analysis, he decided to find the elf NPCs first.
For the past month, Lan Xiaoyin had been traveling around the streets and alleys of Roland’s major cities, looking for traces of the remaining members of the elf clan.
Naturally, he didn’t participate in resisting the beast wave. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but—
He was stuck at lv 5!
If he couldn’t activate his bloodline power, his level would be stuck at lv 5. He couldn’t make any progress in strength and his health volume was the same as a piece of paper. Going to the battlefield was just asking for abuse.
Therefore, he relied on doing the daily tasks to save a small amount of contribution points. Finally, he received the reward of 5 square meters of land.
5 square meters was really shabby compared to the other big shots who had 100 square meters.
Nevertheless, Lan Xiaoyin didn’t pay too much attention to it because his identity wasn’t a brave in the first place. If the elf tribe was rebuilt in the future, would he still need to go to the City of the Braves to compete with the players?
Once the elf tribe was rebuilt and other players could be born as elves, he would be the well-deserved boss! Wasn’t this grander than the other game bosses?
With this belief, Lan Xiaoyin always had a good mentality and was optimistic no matter what difficulties he encountered.
However, he couldn’t smile when looking at the latest system notification.
The Tree of Life was revived? What was this? Were there other elf players doing the quest besides him?
If he read it correctly, the seed of the Tree of Life was the one held by the elf queen. Why was it inexplicably revived? Who rescued that little elf?
It couldn’t be an NPC, right? This didn’t conform to game logic. If the NPCs could do everything, why did the players still need to do it?
However, thinking about the unique nature of Starry Sky Age, Lan Xiaoyin had to wonder. Could it be that the NPCs were taking advantage of the players’ absence to secretly steal the plot again?
It was just like last time in the elven land. If he hadn’t happened to see it, the players would’ve missed that plot.
Lan Xiaoyin was depressed but he couldn’t watch the mission fail.
He decisively gave up on searching for other elf NPCs. He might have grasped some clues, but the most important thing now was to keep the mission.
Once the main mission failed, forget rebuilding the elf tribe so that other players could choose to become elves. He would probably be stuck at lv 5.
If this was the case, his account was no different from being scrapped.
Lan Xiaoyin had no choice but to leave Seizing Star City and come to Imperial City through the teleportation circle. However, just as he was about to go to the palace…
[The elf queen seems to have left Imperial City.]
?
Lan Xiaoyin looked at the mission reminder that suddenly appeared. He couldn’t help having question marks on his face.
The elf queen wasn’t in Imperial City. Then where did she go?
In the canyons of the Asmo Mountains, all types of magical changes finally stopped.
Xu Sili looked around. From barren land to lush green land, to a sea of flowers full of life again in front of him… the changes were really dizzying.
At this time, Chamo suddenly took a step forward. The corners of his mouth slightly curved up as he revealed a relieved smile.
“Asheng.”
He called out in delight.
They saw that under the small tree that was over one meter high, the little girl, originally curled up while unconscious, was stretching her limbs at this time.
Hearing Chamo’s voice, she opened her eyes slightly. She rubbed her eyes with her little hands and sat up in a daze.
Seeing her ignorant and cute expression, it was hard to imagine that she had now become the queen of the elves. Of course, in addition to the Tree of Life, she was only one person.
Chamo walked up to her.
Asheng finally came to her senses and opened her arms to him.
Chamo bent down and picked her up. He smiled and rubbed the top of her head. “It is good that you are okay.”
Asheng hugged his neck tightly and rubbed against his cheek with some attachment. Then she stretched out her little hand and pressed it on his chest.
A faint green fluorescence lit up her palm and penetrated into Chamo’s body through his clothes.
Chamo was startled for a moment. He could feel that a strong vitality was injected into his originally decayed and dilapidated body.
This gentle force was repairing his body at a slow but completely perceptible speed. The side effects left by forcibly cutting the space were slowly getting better.
Chamo wasn’t very happy. He looked down at the little girl and frowned. “Asheng, you…”
Little Asheng smiled at him.
Her little face was still rosy. She didn’t seem affected at all.
“Chamo, you have to get well quickly.”
Xu Sili also saw Asheng’s small movements. He nodded and said, “Asheng is right. Chamo, you had better heal your injuries quickly. If we go to find the sea elf tribe land, you will definitely be leading the way.”
Speaking of which, Chamo really worked hard. After finishing his work with the forest elves, he had to continue working for the sea elves.
Thinking of this special hobby, Xu Sili couldn’t help smiling. Then he said, “When you settle down in the future, you might be able to open a kindergarten.”
Chamo thought about it seriously and nodded. “Your Majesty’s words make sense.”
Xu Sili glanced at him and saw that he didn’t seem to be joking. Xu Sili touched his chin and said, “If you are too busy, you can also ask September to help.”
Hearing this, Chamo laughed.
“That would certainly be a fun life.”
Seeing them laughing, Asheng tilted her head and became happy. Then she looked at Xu Sili and said, “Imperial Brother, thank you for saving me.”
Xu Sili couldn’t help wondering, “How do you know that I saved you?”
“I heard the music played by Imperial Brother!” Little Asheng explained. Then she pointed to the one meter high tree behind him. “She also asked me to thank you.”
Xu Sili reached out and rubbed her little head. Then he looked at the small tree swaying in the wind.
The shape of the tree wasn’t special. It was a bit like a banyan tree, but each leaf exuded light green vitality. It was obvious that it was extraordinary at a glance.
This seedling looked so gentle and harmless that one couldn’t help feeling close to it. Still, Xu Sili didn’t forget the way it plundered life as it sprouted and grew.
The Tree of Life might not be as pure and beautiful as the legend said.
So according to custom, Xu Sili used Insight on the Tree of Life.
[Tree of Life]
[Identity: Special race, mother of elves.
Faction: Roland Empire.
Growth: Sapling (young ecology).
……
Special abilities(unlocked):
- Elemental attraction (In the place where it is located, elemental intensity within a radius of 10 kilometers is +100%, among which the wood element is 200%. This can grow).
-
Vitality (the vitality contained in the leaves can give life to human flesh and bones).]
Xu Sili was stunned.
These two abilities were too confusing.
He could understand the elemental attraction. Wasn’t this Asheng’s special talent? The problem was that Asheng could only increase the concentration of elements within ten meters, while the Tree of Life directly increased it by a thousand times!
This meant that this area would become a holy place for training.
If the players knew that the Tree of Life was here and in the form of a sapling, it would probably be in danger.
Those lawless people were likely to dig up the Tree of Life back to the guild station as a treasure, not to mention that the leaves of the Tree of Life were indeed priceless treasures!
In the absence of the water healers and light healers, these leaves full of vitality were indeed the best substitute.
Players might not have much use for them, but to NPCs, this was a good thing with a high price but no supply.
Either way, it was definitely worth saving this Tree of Life.
The most important question now was how to protect it and let it grow safely in the canyon. This was also related to Asheng’s safety. After all, her fate was connected with the Tree of Life.
It seemed that she could take the initiative to release the binding, but now was the time to enjoy the benefits. It would be a pity to let Asheng unbind herself.
It just had to be hidden well. Even if it was discovered that there was a holy land for training in the Asmo Mountains, it wouldn’t be a big problem…
Xu Sili looked at the entrance of the canyon. It seemed that these formations were still too crude. Stricter protective measures must be taken!
Thus, the group started to discuss how to protect the Tree of Life.
On the other side, Lan Xiaoyin hurriedly contacted Chamo after discovering that the elf queen wasn’t in the Imperial City. Unfortunately, all the messages were sent out in vain.
It was hard for him to say anything.
After all, could he still expect an NPC to respond to his messages like a friend?
[Xiao Lan might as well go back to Seizing Star City and continue looking for the elves.]
[Yes, the Tree of Life is resurrected. Logically speaking, the elves must be sensitive to it.]
[The streamer is also an elf. Why didn’t he sense it?]
[He sensed it. Didn’t the system notification prompt him that the Tree of Life was resurrected?]
Lan Xiaoyin saw the barrage analysis and felt that it was very reasonable.
The elf queen must be with the Tree of Life. As long as he found the resurrected Tree of Life, he would definitely be able to find the elf queen!
Thus, he returned to Seizing Star City with a bitter heart.
During his search that took over a month, all the clues pointed to Seizing Star City, a city with a large rank and the best economic development among several major cities. It also had a particularly large number of wood elementalists.
Since he was an elf himself, once he exposed his pointed ears and walked in a strutting manner through certain special streets and alleys—
In a certain corner, he was pulled into an alley and his mouth tightly covered.
Lan Xiaoyin was startled. Then he saw a pair of green eyes. The owner of the eyes made a silence gesture to him and only let him go after Lan Xiaoyin nodded.
This was a man wearing a hood. He looked around 40 or 50 years old in human age. He stared at Lan Xiaoyin, his brow furrowed.
“What are you doing? Your ears are exposed!”
Lan Xiaoyin looked at the NPC in front of him and finally felt that he was doing a normal task!
He pretended to be panicked. He quickly covered his ears and said in a flustered manner, “Oh my god, what should I do? My disguise has failed!”
[Oh, so fake.]
[Your acting skills need to be strengthened.]
The man also looked at Lan Xiaoyin with some suspicion. Finally, he said, “Come with me.”
