Chapter 525 - 510: Elf Queen
Chapter 525 - 510: Elf Queen
Li Cunxu was getting closer and closer to the Tree of Life, but he increasingly felt that this forest, filled with strange and dangerous plants, was deliberately arranged by someone.
The reason for his judgment was simple: this forest had nothing but murderous plants, not a single piece of natural treasure.
Yes, not a single natural treasure.
The Curse Crow brushed against a leaf, and the plant connected to the leaf emitted a clear, tinkling sound.
Li Cunxu looked over and saw a plant resembling a Windbell Grass making the sound.
"Alarm Windbell Grass, so it is indeed arranged here."
The Alarm Windbell Grass has a mother and child plant; if the child plant is touched, the mother plant will also sound.
However, this warning method had long been obsolete.
In the past, people generally didn’t recognize the Alarm Windbell Grass, so even if they triggered it, they wouldn’t know. But now, with public education by the alliance, people have learned about the interesting characteristics of Alarm Windbell Grass from middle school textbooks.
Therefore, nowadays, people generally don’t use Alarm Windbell Grass as a means of warning.
Li Cunxu secretly heightened his vigilance and proceeded cautiously.
Suddenly, an arrow, like a sudden flash of the aurora, shot down the Curse Crow. It wasn’t that the Curse Crow was too weak, or that the archer’s skill was too strong, but that this arrow was peculiar.
After penetrating the Curse Crow, it quickly drained the life of the Curse Crow.
Li Cunxu followed the trajectory of the arrow and saw, on a branch, an elf dressed in a yellow gown with vampire-like fangs, exuding a wild aura.
The elf seemed surprised; this intruder’s pet beast was too weak.
It was shot dead by such a simple arrow?
With such strength, how did the intruder even make it out of the interception forest?
Li Cunxu looked gravely at the elf.
The display showed that the elf was Monarch Level 3.
But what if it’s Monarch Level 3, dare to shoot my Curse Crow, taste my thunder.
World-Ending Black Thunder.
The World-Ending Black Thunder blasted wildly in the elf’s sea of spirit, striking the spirit form of the elf, making her feel unbearable pain.
"Stop, Desolate Elf."
"Desolate Elf, where are you running to?"
Several green figures leaped through the forest, rushing over swiftly.
As they got closer, Li Cunxu could see clearly these green figures’ appearance.
They were also elves, dressed in green gowns, but their features were much gentler and more delicate compared to the yellow-gowned elf.
The green elves swiftly shot arrows at the yellow elf, and when the arrows hit the yellow elf, the yellow elf endured the physical and spiritual pain and quickly left.
The yellow elf fled, and the green elves pursued, acting out a chase scene right in front of Li Cunxu.
Moments later, the green elves returned and surrounded Li Cunxu.
In the group of green elves, the leading elf, Lv Jiu, said unkindly to Li Cunxu,
"Human, do you not know that entry into the Elf Divine Court is forbidden for humans?"
The relationship between elves and the Human Race was extremely poor; after the Age of Giants ended, it was their turn to compete for the next era’s overlord, and the elves participated in this competition but ultimately lost to the Human Race.
Li Cunxu said, "I don’t know, you didn’t write it."
"You..."
"What about that yellow elf just now?"
Li Cunxu didn’t want to argue about the so-called problem with her; he was more concerned about the yellow elf who had shot his Curse Crow.
Though the Curse Crow could resurrect infinitely, and it wouldn’t matter if it died, infinite resurrection was the affair of his pet beast, and as a Beast Master, he must avenge the Curse Crow.
Lv Jiu said, "She escaped,"
"Escaped?"
Li Cunxu looked in disbelief at the ten green elves.
The leading Lv Jiu was Monarch Level 4; in addition, in the ten-member team, there was also one Monarch Level 1 elf, three Venerable Kings, and five Kings.
This lineup, let an elf who had an arrow in the leg and had been struck by my World-Ending Black Thunder escape?
"You let her escape too."
You’re really useless!
Though Li Cunxu didn’t say this last sentence, his eyes conveyed it.
Lv Jiu said with irritation and shame, "She burned her blood essence to escape."
Lv Jiu took out handcuffs made of Forbidden God Iron and cuffed Li Cunxu.
Li Cunxu didn’t resist; although he could win in a fight, he wanted to take this chance to explore the reality of the Elf Race.
The handcuffs made from Forbidden God Iron had a forbidden power, capable of sealing all extraordinary powers, unavoidable for those below Monarch level and for Monarchs.
For those of Emperor level, though it couldn’t seal all power, it still had a suppressive effect.
Li Cunxu was very interested in this metal; if the Killing Sword fused with Forbidden God Iron, when the Killing Sword struck an enemy, it could temporarily suppress the enemy’s power.
No one knew if there was more Forbidden God Iron in the Elf Race.
If there was, the Killing Sword would be blessed.
Though he wanted to explore, Li Cunxu had no habit of putting his life in others’ hands.
It would be ridiculous to lose his life for exploration.
Though the forbidden handcuffs sealed his power and spiritual power, preventing him from summoning his pet beast and using his spiritual power, it couldn’t seal the Beast Taming Space outside his body.
As long as Li Cunxu used the Artifact embedded in the Beast Taming Space, the Emergency Departure Device, he could instantly disappear from the spot and enter the Beast Taming Space to escape all dangers.
Moreover, removing the forbidden handcuffs was also very simple for Li Cunxu.
Upon entering the Beast Taming Space, let Chi Xiaoxiong utilize Stealing God to steal the forbidden handcuffs.
The prison of the Elven Race was quite interesting, built on trees.
Lv Jiu took Li Cunxu back to the tribe and then locked him in the tree prison for three days.
The tree prison was tall, and through the bars, Li Cunxu could see most of the Elf tribe’s territory and people.
Li Cunxu observed through his display that this Elf tribe had quite a few monarch-level strong people; just what he could see was ten in number.
On the third day,
Lv Jiu came to the tree prison, looking at Li Cunxu, who was leaning his head against the window bars, quite unexpectedly.
This human was exceedingly calm.
Not a hint of the tension of being imprisoned.
The prison cell was opened.
Lv Jiu said coldly, "Come out, Her Majesty the Queen wants to see you."
The Elf Queen sat on a throne entwined with life green vines, crowned with a floral crown, exuding an unspeakable aura of terror.
Li Cunxu was alerted; this was the pressure of an Emperor level.
This Elf Queen was an Emperor level strong person, but unfortunately, his display panel could not yet view the details of an Emperor level character, or know the specific level of the Elf Queen.
The Elf Queen said with dignity, "Human, do you realize your guilt?"
"I do not know."
"Humans are forbidden from entering the Elf Divine Court."
"Can I leave now then?"
Lv Jiu could not hold herself back, scolding, "Bold, how dare you speak to Her Majesty the Queen like that?"
The Elf Queen gestured to stop Lv Jiu and then said to Li Cunxu, "You cannot leave; according to the rules previously established by the Elf Divine Court, all human intruders are to be killed."
"So, you want to kill me?" Li Cunxu narrowed his eyes, speaking in a dangerous tone.
The Elf Queen sensed the danger brought by the life-saving jade on Li Cunxu.
"No, I do not favor killing; therefore, I am willing to offer you a chance for redemption."
