Carolee sat inside the Hall of Silence, and Pluck the Trickster was sitting right in front of her with a script in hand.
"Miss Carolee, welcome to the Hall of Silence." Pluck's greeting wasn't as natural as when he was reporting some trivial news.
This trickster wasn't good at conversing with others. Even though he had worked with Carolee in a movie before, he still seemed a little unnatural during the interview.
"Long time no see, Leon. I feel like you've put on weight again."
On the other hand, Carolee seemed a lot more natural. She even smiled and teased the trickster with the role of 'Matilda'.
Josiah, who had been watching from outside the Hall of Silence, could already imagine that because of this line of dialogue, it was enough to make many fans listening to The Voice of Noland fall into a state of excitement.
But this wasn't a radio drama of "This Demon Isn't Too Cold", but an interview. Josiah gestured to Pluck the Trickster. He adjusted his state of mind and began to ask his first question.
"It's been a month since we last met. I heard that Miss Carolee visited the Blackwood Forest during this period of time?"
When Pluck asked this question, the smile on Carolee's face instantly disappeared, and her expression became somewhat heavy.
After all, they were talking about a disaster that nearly wiped out an entire race.
Perhaps … Josiah should consider asking some light questions like Carolee's future career plans after this interview to lighten the mood?
"What's that elf doing?" Hiri came over and whispered in Josiah's ear.
Josiah turned his head to look at the two Blackwood Elves standing on the other side. One of them was a priestess whose whole body was pressed against the glass wall of the Hall of Silence.
Her appearance reminded Josiah of a little girl who went to the zoo for the first time. Her face was full of curiosity as she pressed against the glass and looked at the yawning lions inside.
But the emotion in this priestess' eyes wasn't curiosity …
"That …" Josiah wanted to remind her to pay attention to her manners. This kind of appearance was likely to scare Pluck and Carolee inside.
"The aura of life … is surging inside the World Tree." Priest Olanca did not realize how out of control he was.
She widened her eyes and stared blankly at Carolee who was sitting in the Hall of Silence.
From an outsider's point of view, as an interviewer, Pluck was only asking Carolee one question after another, but in the eyes of Priest Olanca … the World Tree in Carolee's body was absorbing a large amount of nutrients.
"Holy Tree Narushi is growing. Cypher, do you … see it?"
Priest Olanca turned around and said to Elder Cypher. She had been the priest of the World Tree for many years, but she had never been as excited as she was today.
"The growth of the holy tree is indeed beyond imagination, but please calm down, Olanca." Elder Cephane glanced to his side as though he was reminding the Elf Priest to control his emotions.
With Cephane's reminder, she finally realized that she wasn't in the Blackwood Forest …
"My apologies, everyone … I lost my composure." Priest Olanca quickly regained her dignified posture and apologized to the people around her.
"It's fine, I understand." Josiah waved his hand to show that he didn't mind.
Josiah often encountered such situations in the Hearthstone Tavern. It was like spending three gold coins to buy a Hearthstone card pack, only to find that all five cards were gold. If it were the dwarves, they would probably drink from morning till night.
To quote one of Hiri's comments, 'Another crazy one.'
Priest Olanca calmed herself down and once again walked out of the glass room in the Hall of Silence. She opened her eyes wide and stared at Carolee.
In her eyes, large amounts of emerald light poured into Caroline's body from all directions, nourishing the World Tree Seed within her. The World Tree Seed, which was originally so fragile that it couldn't even withstand a single blow, gradually solidified under the nourishment of the light.
"I thought it would take more than ten years for the holy tree to sprout again … but now I can feel Tree Narushi's throbbing." Priest Olanca's voice was filled with joy. "If it continues like this, a week will be enough for the holy tree to sprout again."
"This interview won't last a whole week. In fact … it won't even last an hour."
Josiah mercilessly poured a bucket of ice on the Elf Priest, waking her from her reverie.
"Interview? A conversation between the Daughter of the Forest and that human named Pluck … "Priest Olanca returned to her senses and shifted her gaze to Josiah." How long can this conversation last? "
Although Priest Olanca was unwilling to give up, she had to admit that this' interview 'had allowed the World Tree to gather more nutrients than any other ceremony the Darkwood Elves had ever held.
At its peak, the Darkwood Elves only had around ten thousand people. They relied on the power of the World Tree to fight against the humans who invaded the forest.
But now, there were fifty thousand people listening to the Voice of Noland …
"It's over. There weren't many questions to begin with," Josiah said.
At this time, Pluck the Trickster finished asking all the questions in his script. Carolee let out a sigh of relief and prepared to leave the Hall of Silence.
"May I ask if it's possible to extend this … interview?" Elder Cypher voiced the hope in Olanca's heart.
Josiah didn't answer. He just looked at Carolee who had just walked out of the Hall of Silence.
"It's fine to extend the interview, but what should I say?" Carolee asked.
"Anything is fine as long as it can make everyone happy. For example, you can talk to 'Leon' about your future career plans."
Josiah didn't think that Pluck the Trickster was a qualified talk show host, but Carolee was a talkative girl. With her around, there would never be a lack of topics to talk about.
"Daughter of the Forest, please …" The old priest very considerately handed Carolee a glass of water.
Pluck hadn't announced the end of the day's news, and the audience still hadn't dispersed. In fact, most of the listeners were more interested in the daily life between Matilda and Leon than the serious topic of the Blackwood Forest fire.
When Carolee took the glass of water from the priest, she seemed to remember something and her expression became a little gloomy.
"We won't force it, Daughter of the Forest." Elder Cypher saw the change in Carolee's mood.
"No … It's just … I'm thinking of my mother." Carolee forced a smile on her face to show that there was no problem. "In the past, when I was practicing, my mother would also hand me a glass of water and say 'continue' …"
"She will be safe, I promise you." Josiah suddenly said.
"Really …? Mr. Josiah. "
On the way to Noland, Carolee was very worried about her mother's safety. In Falosi, she could still use pigeons to communicate with her mother, but in Noland … this only method of communication had to be cut off.
