We Agreed To Set Sail and Become the Ruler of the Deep Sea?

Chapter 253 "Tonight, stay..."

Shane's logic is simple.

Just like the destruction of the elves, there are many doubts.

In more ancient times, the sudden demise of the ancient dragon race was also one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in the world.

The truth has long been buried by the sands of history and shrouded behind layers of fog.

These two races that ruled different eras have many similarities.

Especially their sudden destruction, there is a high degree of unity.

The only difference is that the elves have an additional [Curse of Aphasia], but the ancient dragons have not lost their language.

If we say that the elves really perished because of the influence of the Elvish language on the true names of the gods.

Is the extinction of the ancient dragon also due to this reason?

The answer is obviously no.

How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

Moreover, ancient dragons are different from elves who are good at learning and research. They rely more on their own bodies and talents.

Even if he doesn't need to study or exercise, just grow naturally, Gu Long will have legendary level combat power when he becomes an adult.

Therefore, it is impossible for them to study their own language as deeply as Laila's mother did.

This also shows that there are other reasons for the demise of the ancient dragon.

Perhaps, it was also that reason that led to the destruction of the elves.

And Laila's mother's research was just a trigger.

Another fact that can support this conjecture is...

A hundred years have passed since the last [Wrath of God] in [Emerald Island], and the elves are still the most powerful race in the world.

The prosperity and prosperity of [City of Giant Trees] also shows that the time for the elves still seems to have not yet come.

There is still a long time before sudden death.

Xia En preconceivedly regarded [God's Wrath] as the main cause of the elves' demise.

But now it seems that this may not be the case.

Laila is naturally extremely smart to be in the position she is in today.

As soon as her mind turned around, she figured out the reason why Xia En mentioned Gu Long, and her beautiful eyes widened slightly.

"You mean..."

"Even without my mother's research, [Wrath of God] is still possible? Will the elves still perish?"

Shane nodded: "That's right."

"But that's just my guess."

"After all, Gu Long's era is too far away from us."

Laila thought carefully for a long time, and finally sighed: "No matter what, the coming of [God's Wrath] has something to do with my mother."

"This is a responsibility I cannot shirk."

"but…"

The girl who was about to become the queen raised her head and smiled at Xia En, with stars twinkling in her eyes.

"After hearing your words, I feel much better."

"Thank you, Shane."

Hearing this, Xia En felt a little sad.

From the moment they met until now, Laila has never asked him how he came here or how long he will stay here.

Xia En also tacitly did not mention this matter.

But he knew very well that he would eventually leave.

His current body is just a [projection body].

When the progress bar in the corner of your vision reaches (0/100), it's time for Xia En to leave.

At that time, Laila will become alone again and have to face the unknown future and disaster alone.

Thinking of this, Xia En sighed: "That's all I can do."

"What do you mean this is all?"

Laila opened her eyes wide and said extremely seriously.

"Honestly, this is the happiest day I've had in over a hundred years."

“Not only did I eat delicious food that I hadn’t eaten in a long time, but I also let go of my guard and worries and had fun in the city for the first time in a long time.”

"The most important thing is that I also met the people I always wanted to meet."

When she said this, Laila's beautiful eyes were always staring at Xia En.

Xia En couldn't help but feel a tremble in his heart, because he saw...

At this moment, there was only his reflection in those eyes.

To be honest, this was the first time that Xia En encountered such a "straight ball" offensive.

He had to admit that these hundred years had not only improved Laila's strength and knowledge, but also shaped her character.

Now Laila is no longer the shy and timid girl she used to be. She only keeps many thoughts buried deep in her heart.

Of course, she will still be shy if she is shy.

The reddish cheeks and fluttering eyelashes are proof of that.

But Laila was able to hold back her shyness and say these words, which is enough to show her change.

Shane made up his mind and was about to respond when he heard Laila continue.

"So many happy things are added together, and the result is a wonderful time like a dream."

"But I still have a small regret in my heart."

"Mr. Shane, are you willing to do me a favor and make up for this regret?"

Laila said it sincerely, and the hint of regret and sadness didn't seem to be fake. Naturally, Xia En had no reason to refuse.

"Of course I do."

Hearing this, Laila's face suddenly bloomed with a beautiful smile like a flower.

"As long as you want."

The next moment.

The teleportation circle appeared again under the two people's feet.

After a brief moment of dizziness.

Shane found that he had left the previous library tower.

The first thing that caught the eye was a large bed made of woven vegetation.

"…Um?"

Xia En raised his eyebrows and realized something was wrong.

First of all, this large bed is woven from a special kind of plant. It looks extremely soft and exudes a refreshing fragrance of vegetation.

On the big bed, there are many soft flower petals scattered, which makes the big bed look fresh and exquisite.

Miraculously, there was a faint fragrance lingering in the air around the big bed.

It smells like flowers, or something else.

I have to say, this is indeed a good bed!

After people see it, they will naturally have the urge to go up and roll around.

Xia En's peripheral vision glanced around him, and he immediately recognized that this was probably the interior of a palace.

Except for the big bed, the interior furnishings of the palace are quite simple, and only some details reveal the girl's delicate thoughts.

There are flowers placed in the corners and some vines climbing on the palace walls.

There are also many books placed on the bedside cabinet.

There is even a disassembled steam engine in a corner of the palace!

On the surface, it doesn't look like a girl's boudoir, but Xia En can tell at a glance -

This palace is Laila's bedroom.

Realizing this, even with Xia En's determination, his throat couldn't help but feel a little dry.

In the middle of the night, a man and a woman are alone.

Laila's intention of bringing him here seems to be clear.

but…

Can [Projected Body] really do that kind of thing?

Although he can breathe and eat, he has never tested his ability in that area.

But since you can control blood, then controlling a certain part should also...

Xia En's brain was a little confused, so he started thinking about some random things to distract his attention. at the same time.

Laila looked at him with a smile.

This girl's appearance was already extremely beautiful, and now under the light of fluorescent light, she was even more stunning.

The slim and delicate figure is hidden under the wide queen's dress.

Nobility and innocence, purity and charm.

These contradictory temperaments are now harmoniously combined, bursting out with amazing charm.

At this moment, her grace was breathtakingly beautiful.

At this time, a faint fragrance came - a fragrance similar to that surrounding the big bed.

Laila hugged Shane and whispered.

"The favor I want to ask you for is..."

"Tonight, stay..."

Shane never expected that the regret Laila wanted to fill would be this.

If he agrees in advance, there will be no room for regret.

But such carefulness is not annoying at all.

To be honest, in front of Laila like this, Shane couldn't say no.

But the problem is...

Why refuse?

If it's just one night...

Shane opened his mouth, the words of promise were already on his lips.

But suddenly!

boom! !

A roar as huge as thunder suddenly came from outside the palace.

Immediately afterwards, there was an extremely violent vibration.

The walls, floor, ceiling... not only began to tremble, but even deformed quite a bit.

This is no small matter.

This is the palace of a candidate queen, and even this place has been affected by this shock, which is enough to show the seriousness of the situation.

Shane and Laila looked at each other, and the charming atmosphere before was gone.

Although it is a pity, they are all smart people and naturally know the importance of things.

"Where is this palace located in [City of Giant Woods]?"

Shane asked immediately.

"This is on a branch of the Elf Mother Tree..."

Halfway through her words, Laila's expression suddenly changed: "No! The enemy's target is the Elf Mother Tree!"

Laila acted extremely decisively, quickly cast a teleportation spell, and brought Xia En outside the palace.

The two of them looked down, their expressions becoming ugly.

Under the trunk of the Elf Mother Tree, pitch-black flames were burning, burning the vigorous vitality in the air.

Continuous explosions sounded from all directions on the tree trunk.

Obviously, it was this explosion that caused the elf mother tree to shake violently.

"This power..."

Laila looked solemn and murmured: "It's the dark elf!?"

As a queen who is about to ascend the throne, Laila naturally has a lot of understanding of the hostile group of dark elves.

But at this time, Xia En noticed the strange movement in the other direction of [City of Giant Woods] and couldn't help but shrink his pupils.

"That's..."

I saw, starting from the edge of the city, a dark and deep wave slowly but surely surged over.

In any area encompassed by that wave, all light was quickly swallowed up and covered up.

The city that was once bustling and lively was less than half submerged by the wave of darkness in the blink of an eye.

And Xia En is no stranger to this kind of dark wave.

Didn’t the last [Wrath of God] in [Emerald Isle] start with such a wave?

Could it be that another [God's Wrath] has descended on the [City of Giant Woods]?

Laila also obviously recognized the arrival of the dark wave, and her expression changed slightly.

But after all, she has experienced a hundred years of growth, and is even about to become a queen.

Therefore, Laila said loudly without hesitation.

“People of [City of Giant Woods], guests from all over the world, don’t panic!”

"I am the elf queen who is about to ascend the throne, Leila Vivian!"

"Please take refuge at the nearest shelter immediately!"

"Elf warriors, pick up your weapons and defend your homeland!"

Her voice was blessed by magic and spread throughout the city.

For a moment, it actually drowned out the huge roar.

Not only that, the magic patterns on the surface of Laila's long skirt suddenly bloomed with an extremely dazzling green light.

Like a miniature sun, it slowly rises in the gradually chaotic [City of Giant Trees].

Xia En couldn't help but feel a little moved.

He looked at Laila, who was acting vigorously and resolutely at this time. Her face no longer had a charming look, only decisiveness, resoluteness and majesty remained!

That is the attitude a queen should have!

In other words, the beautiful appearance before was a beauty that would only be revealed in front of Xia En alone.

Moreover, judging from the special magic pattern and the shelters that have been built in the city...

Laila had prepared for this situation many years ago.

"Laila, you have really grown up a lot..."

Xia En sighed in his heart, feeling slightly happy about this.

but…

Leila Vivian?

This was the first time Shane heard Leila's full name.

The name Vivian inevitably reminded him of the ghost lady from the Black Swan.

Xia En secretly guessed: "Do Vivian and Laila really have some kind of special connection?"

At first, [Laila's Magic Notes] happened to be discovered next to Vivian's crystal coffin.

Thinking about it this way, this is probably not just a coincidence.

However, now is not the time to think about these issues.

After Laila appeared, several elf guards wearing magic pattern armor soon came to her side.

Laila asked the leading guard: "What happened?"

"Is it the work of the dark elves?"

The guard said solemnly: "Yes."

"That group of **** who betrayed the goddess of life suddenly emerged from the ground, and used their secret power to trigger a special explosion, causing serious damage to the Elf Mother Tree."

"underground?"

Laila frowned slightly.

This attack by the dark elves has obviously been planned for a long time, and the purpose is to destroy the elf mother tree in the [City of Giant Trees].

That pitch-black flame seems to be the nemesis of the Elf Mother Tree.

Preventing the flames from continuing to spread is undoubtedly a top priority.

Thinking of this, Laila said decisively: "I will extinguish those black flames, and you guys will try to protect the safety of other civilians."

"In that darkness, the Elvish language will be sealed, but the magic pattern equipment can still be used."

After giving the order, Laila took Xia En's hand, ignored the surprised looks of others, and used the teleportation circle again.

When they reappeared, the two of them were on the ground next to the Elf Mother Tree.

The black flames were rapidly destroying the surface of the giant tree, igniting the vigorous vitality.

It's just that after the black flame burned, what was left was not charcoal, but a trace of decay and dryness.

Rather than burning, it seemed more like greedily sucking the life out of the Elf Mother Tree.

Xia En narrowed his eyes: "This is the power of [Huisi Ming]!"
