Chapter 375: A fleeting affection
Chapter 375: A fleeting affection
In the haze forest, although there is no thick snow as before after winter, the soil is still cold due to lack of sunlight.
But the small animals that have lived in the forest for a long time have long been accustomed to this freezing cold land.
They had already started their busy work, taking advantage of the slight warmth brought by the spring breeze through the gaps between the lush trees, creating a scene full of vitality.
Compared to the vitality of the woods, the Elf Courtyard, a moon elf city built on the ruins of Misdren, appears extremely desolate.
Although the bloodstains on the ground had been washed away by the melting winter snow, and most of the fallen elves had been wiped out in the military operations of the druids and half-dragons;
But the bloody smell in the air could not completely disappear.
Sahanni Moonbow wrinkled her nose, seeming to be somewhat repulsed by the smell.
She dragged the still struggling Xiling with one hand and walked towards the center of the city without saying a word.
A little further behind him, followed the two goddesses Hanali and Adri.
Because of Eilistraee, Shahane was speechless about this expressionless little girl who actually opposed leaving the kingdom of God.
She probably didn't recognize any of those elven gods except Corellon.
Why should we empathize with them?
They are obviously my relatives... What does it have to do with this little girl...
Shahani feels bad now.
The Spark Plan of the Trinity Goddess is nothing more than that after the elven pantheon suffers a devastating blow, the three gods will break away from Corellon's belief system and descend to the main material plane to rebuild the kingdom of God on earth.
At that time, all the elven tribes in the main material plane will directly abandon the faith of Corellon and turn to the Trinity Goddess.
It also prevents all of these mortal relatives from becoming fallen elves.
The price of this was that Corellon was no longer the object of faith for all the elves, and his strength dropped drastically in an instant.
Perhaps the sudden drop occurred at a critical moment in Corellon's battle with the invaders.
Even if this were not the case, the other elven gods might still have a chance of escape, but Corellon... was doomed to die.
And he himself would initiate the ritual that would make Corellon lose his power and face death.
Shahani looked up at the tall tower in the center of the city, which was their destination.
As early as when Corellon sensed the invasion of the alien god, he sank the passage to the kingdom of God without consulting anyone, turning the largest moon elf city into ruins.
I remember that at that time, both Labelas and I had severely accused Corellon of his excessive behavior.
At that time, Corellon, holding a wine bottle that appeared from nowhere, looked at the two elves who were shouting at him angrily with the look of a drunkard.
Sehani was still imagining that if this channel had not been activated, would she have started a rebellion in the kingdom of elves like Elohine did...
No, I'm not Elohine...
This god in charge of war and the sun and the moon shook his head vigorously.
The two gods following far behind looked at each other speechlessly.
"Is Shahani sick again?"
A young elf with a slender figure, a thin frame, and a pair of one and a half foot long white pocket wings on his back said to Hanali, who was extremely gossipy and loved to play talent shows.
This is Aerdrie Faenya, one of the three goddesses. She looks like the nearly extinct god of winged elves, but her duties actually include atmosphere, rain and fertility.
If Corellon hadn't deliberately concealed it, this person's job would probably be not much different from Morgan's on the orc side.
Hanali, who was closer to Shahani, spread her hands helplessly, indicating that she didn't understand either.
Among the entire elven pantheon, the most carefree and heartless one is this goddess who is in charge of love in public and reproduction in private.
But the way this girl behaved didn't seem to make people feel that she was the goddess of love;
On the contrary, after one hot spring beauty pageant after another, those foreign gods thought that she was the god in charge of beauty.
In the elven pantheon, it was even rumored that this girl was actually the goddess of hot springs.
Otherwise, why must every beauty pageant be held next to the hot springs in the kingdom of the elves?
Moreover, it was a hot spring that was condensed entirely by her own divine power...
Without a word from the gods, they quickly entered the white tower in the center of the elven courtyard.
But they did not go upwards, but instead took many twists and turns and ended up underground.
Xiling had been to this place before.
When Archbishop Bol was imprisoned by the moon elves, she and Ivan wandered here for a long time.
In the end, he had a fight with a powerful spellcaster of legendary rank.
Although she had been a little unwilling just now, Xiling now gave up the futile struggle.
Perhaps in the eyes of these three people, her insistence on staying in the Elf Kingdom was a bit extreme, even a little unreasonable.
But before leaving, the words that Corellon conveyed to her mind alone prevented her from leaving so easily.
[Xi Ling...my only granddaughter,
This may be the only time we meet.
I'm sorry, I'm not a competent father, let alone a competent grandfather;
I just need to play the role of a fair and strict racial god when making any decision.
The monster outside is not an outsider at all. It will cause a world-destroying catastrophe in the entire astral realm and the main material plane.
Sehani and the others will rebuild the kingdom of God in the main material world, and lead other elves and the surviving elf gods to resist the invasion of this monster...
But you, don't make such meaningless resistance.
Escape, leave here, and find Eilistraee...
Tell her that she must leave the main material plane even if she has to use up her last bit of divine power.
Be it the elemental world or even the lower planes, as long as I can get away from that monster...
I saw an interesting human being in your memory.
Take him with you, and take everything you hold dear...
It must be said that Eilistraee had one - oh, two lovely daughters;
It also allows me to see my granddaughter at the very end...】
Corellon, who had always been ignored by his mother and had been bad-mouthed by the old skeleton Rillifane behind his back, actually made Xiling experience the feeling that she only had when she was with her mother when he faced her.
The affection that comes from blood ties.
