Volume 3: Artifacts Chapter 76 Helping Hands
Seek help from Sky City?
Dean Vidal faced the arrogant angel, but relied on the resilience given by his age to prevent himself from getting so angry that he burst into a curse.
He said to the Holy Judge Angel Siphos: "You heal your wounds first. I will go to Sky City to ask for an explanation."
Dean Bildad turned and left, his hands behind his back.
Qingkong had nothing to say to the angel, so he followed Dean Vidal out of the clinic. After walking through a long corridor, Dean Vidal opened a door on a wall.
"Your Majesty, please..."
Qingkong walked into the door and saw that it should be the dean's office of Vidal. He came to the terrace, which was located on the highest tower of the college. From a bird's-eye view, he could see the whole college, with a forest on one side and the ocean on the other.
Dean Vidal asked: "Does Her Majesty also know how to hunt down the Queen?"
Qingkong looked at the scenery outside and answered Dean Bidar's question: "If you let me find it, I need to mobilize some information from the library of the Emerald Magic Academy, and use astrology to calculate the solar terms and time, and the accuracy rate can be above 30%.
If five ancient civilizations came looking for us, the success rate would be much higher.”
Dean Vidal walked onto the terrace and stood with Qingkong as they looked at the academy that he had built.
"A 30 percent accuracy rate is already very high. I can barely reach 50 percent. Do you know why I didn't reveal the method of hunting down the Queen?" Dean Vidal's tone was melancholy and helpless.
"Because of the magic spring?"
"Yes, it's because of the Magic Spring." Dean Bidar said with a wry smile: "The Magic Spring is the symbol of the Elf God. It carries all the beautiful legends of the forest elves and also carries the faith of the forest elves. The ancestors of the forest elves were born in the Magic Spring and were blessed by the Elf God. This is common sense that has been imprinted in the hearts of every forest elf since childhood.
My father participated in the last battle to behead the Hunting Queen. When they set out, none of the elf warriors knew where they were going. When they entered the Hunting Queen's lair and saw that the Hunting Queen was wrapped outside the Magic Spring and constantly absorbed energy from the Magic Spring to create hunters, the elf warriors believed that the forest elves had been abandoned by the Elf God, and they all lost their fighting spirit.
In the end, it was the accompanying dragon that killed the Hunting Queen."
Qingkong only knew that the Hunting Queen was near the Magic Spring, but he didn't expect that the Hunting Queen would actually cover the Magic Spring into her body and gain power directly from the source.
This is just like the World Tree creating new creatures, hunting down the grassland elves and western barbarians who were once favored by it, and directly causing the collapse of faith.
Qingkong asked: "It seems that the forest elves have hidden this secret very well for thousands of years."
"All the elf warriors who attacked the Queen's Lair were ordered to keep the secret. I was born after the war, and my father told me the secret when I said I didn't want to inherit the elven throne and only wanted to build a magic academy.
He also told me how to find the magic spring and asked me to always pay attention to the changes in the magic spring and find out why the magic spring created the headhunters.
He was still upset about this incident until his death.
I became more and more lax after I couldn't find the answer. If I had followed my father's orders and checked the Magic Spring regularly, this crisis wouldn't have happened."
People without faith cannot understand the loyalty of some people with faith to their faith.
Even though modern archaeology has evidence that the origin of the elves is not the magic spring, the elves do not accept it. For example, the fierce War Song tribe of the grassland elves insists that their ancestors are the fruits of the world tree.
There is no Elf God in this
There are already rumors out there that the forest elves have been abandoned by the Elf God. How dare Dean Vidal casually say that the Headhunting Queen is at the Magic Spring and let the forest elves know that the Headhunters were really created by the Magic Spring?
Qingkong couldn't help but sighed and said, "I thought that as long as I found the magic spring and got the help of the forest elves, I would be able to kill the hunting queen with my own strength. But I didn't expect that the angel would come to the Emerald Forest at this time and be successfully hunted by the headhunters.
The strength of the headhunters will soon be greatly improved. Perhaps it is the right choice for the forest elves to migrate out of the Emerald Forest."
Dean Bidar said: "Where can so many forest elves go if they leave their homes?"
Clear Sky cannot make decisions for the Golden Shield Empire, and the Moonlight Royal Court does not have the strength to accept so many elves.
Moreover, once the forest elves leave the Emerald Forest, it will be difficult for them to return. In addition, the world situation is becoming increasingly tense, and the migration of forest elves will definitely be divided up by all parties, and finally become a wandering race.
Qingkong said, "I think Sky City knows more about the Magic Spring than the forest elves. The Holy Judge Angel Sifos did not show any concern about the headhunters when his companions were hunted. Can it be understood that even if the headhunters create hunters with strength comparable to angels, it will not pose much of a threat to Sky City?"
Dean Vidal also said puzzledly: "I am puzzled too. If the Hunting Queen creates a large number of hunters with the same strength as the angels, how can the angels be so confident that they can behead the Hunting Queen."
"If the angels can do it, I think we can do it too." Qingkong said to Bidar, "I think it is necessary to capture the Holy Judgement Angel Sifos and evaluate his strength to estimate the strength of the new hunter.
In addition, it should be suggested that King Sanye should build a strong defense around clear the wild land, and cut down or burn the forest within ten kilometers around the King's Court as quickly as possible. Compared with the headhunters, the elves no longer have an advantage in the forest. The tall and dense trees will affect the attack effect of long-range weapons, and the grass will provide the best concealment for the short headhunters.
Then select the elves that are valuable to the revival of the forest elves and have them leave the Emerald Court first and go to the Raging Waves City of the Golden Shield Empire, or any place you think is safe.
Finally, I immediately calculated the possible location of the Magic Spring. I want to personally confirm what the Hunting Queen is! "
The clear sky seemed to be both a suggestion and an order, fully displaying the queen's majesty.
Dean Vidal thought about it for a moment and said, “Your Majesty, your suggestion is the safest way. I will reply to King Sanye now.
Should we tell King Sanye that you are here?"
Qingkong said: "No need for formal notification, I am Xingkong, you don't need to treat me too much specially. I believe that the grassland elves and forest elves must have a common ancestor. Now that the forest elves are in trouble, the grassland elves will definitely not stand idly by.
I will use my influence in the Golden Shield Empire to get the Empire to provide a batch of basic supplies as soon as possible. As more and more forest elves come to the Emerald King's Court for refuge, your stored food and energy will soon be exhausted."
"Thank you for your help, Your Majesty. The forest elves will never forget the brotherhood with the grassland elves."
Qingkong said: "Let's save our words of gratitude until we succeed. Now go capture the Holy Judgement Angel Siphos, don't let him get away!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
At the Emerald Magic Academy's medical clinic, the Holy Judge Angel Crimson Sapphire Siphos had already received treatment. Most of his wounds had healed, and the remaining hidden injuries had little impact on his movements, so he only needed to rest for a while before he could recover.
But Sifos did not plan to stay in the Emerald Magic Academy to rest. He was ordered by the Sword of Oath to investigate the Magic Spring, the source of divine power. Now the Magic Spring is overflowing abnormally again, and a Holy Judgement Angel was hunted. He must return to Sky City as soon as possible and report the situation here to the Sword of Oath.
Siphos spread his wings. The missing piece of feather made his body hurt, and his heart was even more painful.
When the elf doctor saw the angel Sifos standing up and walking out, he immediately stopped him and said, "Angel, you can't leave now. I need to report your condition to Dean Vidal, and you can only leave with his permission."
Sifos reached out, and the angel sword appeared in his hand, with the tip of the sword against the throat of the elf doctor. The removed armor was inserted into his body one by one, and in a short time, a set of white angel armor was completed.
"Elf, just because you helped me doesn't mean you can order me around. My duty requires me to return to Sky City immediately, and no creature can stop me. I will remember that you treated my injuries, and I will repay you as much as I can.
Goodbye, justice be with you!"
Looking at the frightened elf doctor, the angel Siphos put away his sword handsomely, turned around and saw another elf standing in front of him.
Sifos remembered that this female elf had just come here with Dean Vidal, and she should be the dean's assistant.
“Get out of the way!”
Qingkong couldn't help but laugh: "Why do angels always like to point their chins at me when we first meet? Could it be that after living in Sky City for so long, they can't even look me straight in the eye?"
Siphos chuckled and said, "How can low-level creatures be equal to noble angels? You should think about how to deal with the headhunters. There will be no dragons to help you this time."
Qingkong said helplessly: "It seems that in order for you to listen to me carefully, I must first use the language that you angels can understand."
The machete Canggu Panyan appeared in Qingkong's hand. She put on layers of armor on her right arm. Without waiting for the armor to be fully put on, she waved her hand and slashed at the Holy Judgement Angel Siphos.
Sifos reacted quickly and summoned the Angel Sword to block. Then he immediately realized that he had greatly underestimated the strength of the elf on the opposite side. The powerful force hit him and Sifos' whole body was knocked back.
He smashed the window of the clinic, flipped his body in the broken glass, and flew up along the wall.
After just one fight, Siphos knew he was no match for the elf. If he hadn't been injured, he might have been able to fight, but now he had no chance of winning.
Fortunately, I came out from the closed room and could run freely in the sky.
Siphos, who thought he had escaped, looked down.
Then he saw the female elf jumping out of the window. She put her feet on the wall and appeared in front of him in a flash.
Facing the blade, Siphos recited the ancient angel language, and his wings immediately hardened. He turned sharply in the air, blocked the blade with his steel wings, and then swung his sword to cut the elf. Finally, while the elf dodged, he spread his wings and rushed diagonally into the sky.
As long as she was far away from the buildings, the elf would have nowhere to stay. Even if she knew the flying spell, she could never fly faster than an angel.
As Seaforth flew higher and higher, the magical Emerald Castle below him became smaller and smaller.
The powerful elf didn't catch up.
It seems that he still has some self-awareness.
Just as Sifos focused all his attention on the ground below, a huge black shadow suddenly loomed over him. A burning sensation came down from above, and Sifos quickly changed direction to avoid it. A fierce dragon breath rushed past his body.
Dragon!
How could there be a dragon here!
Siphos saw the appearance of the dragon that attacked him. It was a black dragon, strong and majestic, with sharp claws and fangs. It was an adult dragon.
At the same time, what made Sifos feel dizzy was that... the female elf who had just attacked him was actually standing on the back of the black dragon.
Have dragons become so depraved as to allow low-level creatures to ride on them?
Siphos summoned a shield to block in front of him and shouted to the approaching black dragon: "You are attacking an angel. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
The black dragon grinned, revealing a mouthful of jagged sharp teeth: "Thousands of years ago, our predecessors fought before, and the consequences were the same. Angel, you are a little weak, don't let me kill you before you have enough fun."
The angel Siphos angrily slashed out with a sword, and the black dragon Bale spat out a mouthful of hot phlegm. The two energies collided, exploding into a brilliant firework in the air.
Seaforth turned and fled again.
I am no match for just one elf, let alone a black dragon.
They must escape, and report to the Sword of Oath that the Dragon Kingdom may conquer the Emerald Forest again.
The angel flew in front and the black dragon chased behind, breathing dragon breath as it chased.
Qingkong stood on the back of the black dragon, looking at the fleeing angel in front of him, and took out the Tiangong Juexian Bow with a wave of his hand.
After the black dragon Balie exhaled a breath of dragon, he said: "Your Majesty, that angel is obviously injured. I can easily kill him with magic."
Qingkong aimed his bow at the angel and said to the black dragon Bale, "Do I need to summon you to kill him? I need to make a comprehensive assessment of the angel Sifos's strength. Limit his flying space and don't let him escape."
"No problem, Your Majesty! We have been playing this aerial chasing game since we were little in Dragon Country..."
The black dragon Barle suddenly accelerated, stretched out his claws to grab the angel's wings, forcing the angel to give up the fight for height.
An ice arrow condensed in the clear sky and was placed on the bowstring, fine-tuning the magic power applied.
He let go of the arrow, and the ice arrow broke into more than ten icicles the moment it was shot out. Each icicle condensed into an ice arrow, forming an open "big net" in the manner of fairy scattering flowers, and shot towards the angel Siphos according to their respective arc-shaped flight trajectories.
The dense whistling sounds alerted Sifos. He set up a magic field beside him and saw the dense rain of arrows coming from behind.
The steel wings formed a protective shape, and the ice arrows made clanging sounds when they hit them.
