Chronicle of the Elf Realm

If your blood is still flowing, then, for the love in your heart, go and risk yourself once. Don't be afraid of the cost. Love always comes at a huge cost.

A corridor of the palace is paved with white maple floors. At regular intervals, you can see low honey-colored stones about half a meter high leaning against the milky white stone wall. Most of the stones are filled with precious antiques from the past. , there are classical-style murals on the walls, bright sunlight shines through from the magic curtain wall on the other side, and the entire corridor is enveloped in bright light.

After a while, Haiya and Hex entered the corridor. Hex is in front and Haiya is behind.

At this moment, Haiya looked a little impatient, with the thin wings looming behind her.

"Princess" Hex suddenly stopped.

"Yes." As soon as Haiya raised her head, Hex's back was reflected in her eyes. The back was as tall as ever, like a mythical Titan, but the shoulders were slightly lower than usual.

"Princess, do the elders really want to choose Your Highness through a competitive meeting?" Hex asked, his tone cautious.

"Uncle, they never joke about the future of the Aquatic Tribe." Haiya was noncommittal. She walked around Hex and continued forward.

"Then, princess, can I ask you something?" Hex looked straight through the long corridor, as if looking at an unknown distance.

Haiya passed him and stopped a few steps away.

"What's wrong?" Haiya didn't look back, "Is it possible that you also want to participate?"

Hex was speechless.

"You won't really be guessed by me, Hex, I advise you to forget it." Haiya frowned. She felt strange that this was not what she meant, but it happened to come out of her throat. Vomited out.

Hex's straight body froze, and he turned his head, his eyes wandering to the scenery outside the palace.

All the corridors in the castle are covered with milky white stone walls on one side, and blue stone walls with water magic on the other side. The blue stone walls become transparent, as if a huge stone wall is installed on the other side of the corridor. Through the glass window, you can directly see the white clouds floating outside the wall and the seabirds passing by. However, what you see from the outside is an extremely hard solid wall.

The palace is located on a mountain in the center of Barnard Bay, towering over all the buildings in the capital city. The mountain is very steep and steep, with almost vertical cliffs. Apart from the stone corridor, it is almost impossible to see anything else. Entry method. Therefore, only high-level elves are qualified to enter this palace.

"Princess"

Hex's voice cracked, and his fists clenched together.

"Hex, don't overestimate your capabilities. You know the reason why uncle holds this conference, and that little guy who always gives me trouble will also go. In fact, the result is obvious. After all, the Alien Water Palace It's a dangerous place. If you don't reach the Central Valley safely at the beginning, you may be in danger and injured, or even lose your life." Haiya said this, not caring about the stunned Hex, and walked away.

A waste of life. Hex stood there stunned.

It turns out that all this is just a huge "gift" to welcome His Highness who can control the future of the Shui Tribe. Is he really the elder?

Hahaha, after a long time, Hex suddenly burst into laughter, making his whole body tremble with laughter.

He smiled wildly, and the entire corridor echoed with his lonely laughter.

At the end of the laugh, it seemed as if all the strength in his body had been taken away. Hex's body slid down softly and leaned against the magic curtain wall, with a sad smile finally curling up at the corner of his mouth.

"Even so, princess, I can't help it, I can't help it." Hex raised his palms. Under the sunlight, it was clear that the veins were clear, and the blood of the elves was still flowing freshly. "What are you doing again?" It’s not that I don’t know, I’ve liked you for a long time! No matter how scary that place is, even if I die, why would I be afraid because of you?”

Behind, separated by a thin layer of magic curtain wall, is the abyss.

Since he is still stepping on the bright and majestic palace ground, he is still qualified to fight. Win or lose is still undecided. He has liked the princess for so many years, and if he wants to give up directly, then simply deprive him of the Elven Power. Even if it’s impossible, I’ll give it a try. Otherwise, how could I be willing to do it?

But why?

Why is it so difficult to even like you?

"Do you want to win?" A distant mantra-like call came.

Hex raised his head suddenly, and a super small elf the size of a fist, with white wings and pointed ears, was flying in front of his eyes. The only shocking thing is that its pupils are light gray, like the intersection of life and death. It is dark and powerless but has little hope. Such a sacred elf, I remember when I was a child and sneaked into the forbidden area of ​​the palace library with that guy, I accidentally saw it in an ancient book. It was the legendary holy elf guide.

Hex's eyes suddenly dilated

"Can you help me?" Hex asked in a trembling voice.

Hex was shocked by the sudden appearance of the Holy Elf.

"I just like trading." The dumpling floated leisurely in the air, looking very comfortable.

"You can take whatever I have, as long as you can win." Hex's teeth clenched and his fists were clenched tightly.

"You have it, do I need it?" Tuanzi's voice was very soft, but full of intimidation.

Hex was startled, his brown eyes dimmed, and the original joyful mood was swept away.

But things took a turn for the worse.

"I can help you. Sign a contract."

Tuanzi muttered a string of spells, and a parchment suddenly appeared in the air. On it were half-elf and half-elf words specially written with a quill pen. The contract slowly lowered to the level of Hex's forehead.

"Sign it, and you will gain a new bloodline and be able to have a hundred times more power than you have now." Tuanzi smiled, and the quill quietly floated to Hex's hand.

Hex eagerly grabbed the pen and was about to sign his name when Tuanzi said, "The price is that your soul will forever belong to the king of the clan who lent you power. As for the elf's skin, that's up to you." , just treat it as a favor."

Hex's two fingers holding the pen trembled slightly, and he slowly put down the pen.

"I don't even have a soul, so what's the point of winning?" He smiled miserably.

It would have been better if he had stopped the princess half a month ago and not gone to the Devil's Forest. He could still hide his little thoughts like before, and he could still watch her and play tricks with her to make her happy. But now, everything will change, and his princess will have a sweetheart.

And he has reached a point where he is thirsty for power and becomes too crazy.

The price of this deal for him is almost unbearable. He will live under the control of that dark contract forever and ever.

You know, this is simply terrifying torture for an elf who is proud of his elf identity.

"There is no soul, but your appearance is still an elf. If you choose to stay in this water area, maybe you will be the winner, and maybe you will be His Highness of the water area. But if you don't seize the opportunity and give up the deal, you will never be able to do it in your life." He raised his head in front of the princess. Bloodline determines the star rank, and destiny is determined by nature. If you want to change it and not go against nature, do you think it is possible?"

In the last few sentences, Tuanzi smiled jokingly. He was half black and half white, resembling a devil and an angel at the same time.

Without the princess, there would be no joy in life and no fear in death.

"I accept." Hex immediately made up his mind, his eyes were firm, and he signed the document within a few seconds. As soon as he completed the last stroke, the parchment paper glowed with golden light, and then slowly turned into particles and disappeared in the air. .

"Great King, I present this contract, may you have more power," Tuanzi declared loudly, just like the pious people who worshiped in ancient times.

Looking at the strange and mysterious dumpling, Hex whispered: "Is this okay?" His brown eyes were full of despair.

He would have been a good boy.

"This is yours. Drink it and you will get what you want." The future you deserve. Tuanzi flapped his wings and flashed in the space a few times before his body disappeared into nothingness.

"But why did you choose me, sir?" Hex wondered at the disappearing dumpling.

No one responded, but a crystal triangular glass bottle containing purple alchemy potion appeared out of thin air and fell into Hex's hand. Hex held it tightly.

If I am destined not to get you, instead of looking up to you all the time, I might as well try my best with everything I have, even if you only look back once, Hex secretly swore in his heart.

Tuanzi admires those who dare to risk their lives for their ideals.

It has this reason for helping, but fundamentally it still has its own agenda. Although doing this is not good for Sijia, it is good for him to take this opportunity to experience it.

What it calls a winner is simply nonsense. What it gives is just the powerful power of a certain curse, just to place the last chess piece on the chessboard before starting. The future of Hex has already been tending to the unique prophecy that suits the Aquatic Tribe.

A tower room in the palace is very luxuriously decorated.

The ancient stone arch is the most conspicuous thing in this room. Mosaic-rimmed mirrors are from floor to ceiling height, matched with luxurious Moroccan tiles. Naples retro furniture is placed with Rajasthani antiques, and wall decorations can be seen everywhere. , the white marble floor is completely covered by gorgeous knitted carpets. In the gold-plated glass door cabinet, red wines, wines and white wines of different ages are neatly placed.

Besides the chief elder of the Shui Tribe, who else could be qualified to stay in such a luxurious room.

"Hex, do you also want to participate?" Hilissant showed a puzzled expression, but the fine lines on his face did not tighten.

Behind the huge ocher crystal table, he slowly leaned on the red leather swivel chair behind him.

"Yes, elder, please give me a chance." Hex's expression was very sincere.

"This, I'm afraid, is not good. Does Haiya know?" Haylisant deliberately changed the subject.

"Elder, this is my personal decision and has nothing to do with the princess. I think I should have the right to participate. After all, I am a member of the water area, and I have met all the conditions in the notice. I hope you can approve it, elder." Kes begged again, his words were high-sounding, as if there was no reason not to agree.

"But, Hex, you should know that you are the princess's personal guard. If you participate in the competition, if something happens to you, I won't be able to explain it to Haiya. She trusts you so much."

Mount Haili waved his hand, and a waiter came up. On the right side of his table, there was a dedicated area for wine glasses.

The waiter carefully held the rare red wine and silently poured the bright red liquid into the crystal clear wine glass.

Hillisant shook the crystal cup, the color of the red wine almost dripping with blood.

I don’t know when he became so addicted to alcohol.

"In this regard, I think Elder, you can definitely have a more suitable candidate than me." Didn't you want to get me away a long time ago? Hex secretly felt funny.

When he was a child, when the personal bodyguards of the royal princess were elected, he was obviously the second place, and the first place was the elf recommended and favored by Haili Shante himself. However, later, by some strange combination of circumstances, he was chosen because there was someone in the middle. It was because he knew the water tribe geek that he wanted to help, but regarding this matter, Highmountain probably still glared at him for a long time.

"Since you are so insistent, Hex, I won't say anything more. I'll just pretend I don't know anything." Hallisan took a small sip of red wine with an intoxicated expression on his face.

"Thank you, elder. Then Hex will go to the name collection office now." Hex bowed in a standard manner and retreated.

In the large and empty room, there was only the sound of drinking red wine, and an imperceptible smile on Hallisante's face covered with fine lines.

"Finally, let's start."

Hex waved his name gracefully at the name registration site, using all his strength in that stroke.

Fortunately, I caught up just before the end.

After that, my whole body felt relaxed and it was time to find the princess. After not following her for so long, it was time for her to find me.

Hex smiled, shook his shoulders, and stretched his muscles.

When he turned around, he found that it was Haiya standing behind him.

Haiya's face was always as white as snow, but it was even worse now. She pursed her lips tightly, exuding a proud temperament.

"Princess" Hex asked with concern as he came to Haiya.

"Let's go, it's time for the banquet, and uncle is going to make an announcement." Haiya said softly.

Hex had never felt a tremor in his voice, nor had he considered why Haiya was suddenly here. He was now only filled with enthusiasm for the competition, and did not think much about other things.

He followed Haiya and walked towards the corridor leading to the dinner party. The gorgeous red wool carpet, with his white feet stepping on it, gave him a faint feeling of softness and comfort from the bottom of his heart, but Haiya was completely unaware of it.

Tonight, Highmountain will begin that game.

Everything is faster, the better, no one can afford to waste time.

Hallisan has always been a man of action.

Just now, Haiya saw Hex's white and strong arms solemnly writing his name, melting into the water element, as if they were one body, blending his own blood with it, Haiya's brain There was a moment of blankness.

Hex turned around and asked as if nothing had happened. He was really not used to it. He seemed to hate it, but his reaction was just like nothing else.

Haiya walked indifferently. She was a princess and knew what to ask and what not to care about. This was etiquette. As a princess of the water tribe, she knew that it could not be violated. But maybe she doesn't know, and it's not clear whether Hex knows what kind of battle this will be.
