Lin Yun was shocked. If the Life Pattern Crystal was destroyed, then the Dark Elves would be exterminated!
Moreover, it wouldn't just be a loss of power, but a true extermination. All the Dark Elves that relied on the Life Pattern Crystal to survive would die one after another.
From then on, the Dark Elves would no longer exist in this world!
Lin Yun was a bit shocked. If something as important as the Life Pattern Crystal couldn't be used, how could these people still care about other things?
Lin Yun's heart was filled with questions. He frowned and asked.
"How could the Life Pattern Crystal not be used? If it couldn't be used, wouldn't the Dark Elves also go extinct? "
The 3rd Elder sneered. "What does that have to do with you? We only suspected that you were plotting against the Dark Elven Clan, but I didn't expect you to know about the Life Pattern Crystal. Speak, where did you learn about it? Also, what is your plot? "
The 5th Elder sneered with a gloomy expression. "Capture him first. This damned outsider knows so much, he is definitely a spy. He might even be related to the Life Pattern Crystal. Capture him and interrogate him. We will definitely learn a lot from him."
Even the 2nd Elder frowned. "This is our clan's top secret, I can't tell you."
Jers was gnashing his teeth. He originally wanted to capture that damned outsider, but who would have thought that he knew about the clan's Life Pattern Crystal!
'Damnit, is there anything that this outsider doesn't know? He is definitely plotting against the clan, so I have to capture him. No, I have to kill him as soon as possible. This guy is too hateful, he actually wanted to kill me before. 'Wait until I capture him, I will definitely convince Father to immediately execute you!'
Jers gnashed his teeth and loudly shouted, "Capture him! This outsider is definitely a spy! The clan's secret has already been leaked, there is definitely a spy! If we don't capture him and interrogate him about his plot, the clan will be in danger!"
Jers loudly shouted. The Elders and the Deacons were a bit hesitant. After all, they only needed to check the Life Pattern Crystal to know the truth. But now that they didn't have this method, they could only rely on guesses to capture people. This was a bit strange.
But without the Life Pattern Crystal, the Third Elder, the Fifth Elder, and more than half of the deacons agreed to capture Lin Yun and interrogate him. After all, not many people in the tribe knew about the Life Pattern Crystal.
Several elders discussed in low voices, and only Jers kept fanning the flames.
After a long while, the result of the discussion was out. It was still to be on the safe side and control Lin Yun first.
The Third Elder's expression was cold, but his eyes were filled with malice. The Fifth Elder kept sneering, looking at Lin Yun as if he was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Elsa looked anxious, but she could only helplessly stand there. The 4th Elder, who supported Elsa, also had a very unsightly expression.
As for the 2nd Elder, he frowned and said to Lin Yun, "Since it happened, you are the biggest suspects. For the sake of the clan's safety, we can only capture you first. We will give you an explanation once the investigation is done."
Jers had a proud expression as he rushed to the forefront with a pair of Dark Elven guards. His magic patterns shone as he sneered at Lin Yun.
'Damned outsider, I'll capture you right now. As long as you dare to resist, I'll kill you on the spot. Even if you don't resist, I have plenty of ways to make you taste pain. At that time, you'll be begging me to kill you.'
Jers proudly walked towards Lin Yun, ready to kill him at any time.
Lin Yun acted as if he didn't see it and lowered his head, thinking hard.
After a long time, he suddenly said, "It's been a hundred years, right?"
Jers was slightly stunned. "What nonsense! Let me tell you, no matter what you say today, you won't be able to change your fate!"
Lin Yun looked at the Elders, and just as he had expected, the Elders' expressions changed at the same time, as if they had thought of something bad.
The 4th Elder waved his hand to stop the guards from approaching and loudly asked, "What do you mean a hundred years?"
Lin Yun earnestly explained, "I mean, it has already been a hundred years since the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation went missing, right?"
"How do you know!?"
The originally good-natured 2nd Elder, who was the calmest, suddenly shrieked. His voice changed, and a bit of alarm could be seen on his face.
The 3rd Elder's expression also changed. He glared at Lin Yun, his eyes turning red as he roared, "Speak, how do you know?!"
The 5th Elder shouted in alarm, "Guards, guards, capture him! Quick, capture that damned spy! It's him, it's definitely him! He definitely knows the reason! Damned outsider!"
After saying that, the 3rd Elder and the 5th Elder simultaneously moved and instantly surrounded Lin Yun. Powerful mana surged and set off gales. The two looked at Lin Yun as if he was their father's murderer, shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Speak, how do you know!?"
"Damned outsider, speak clearly, or I'll let you die a quick death!"
Even the 4th Elder, who had always supported Elsa, looked at Lin Yun with a different expression. Worry could be seen on his face as he looked at Lin Yun, hoping that Lin Yun would speak.
The 2nd Elder was also looking at Lin Yun with a calm expression.
Everyone was stunned. Even the Dark Elves who heard that the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation had been missing for a hundred years almost collapsed.
Many Dark Elven Guards, the most resolute Dark Elves, actually collapsed on the ground, sobbing in despair.
Everyone was shocked. A large number of Dark Elves showed expressions of despair, and the foreheads of the few Elders were dripping with cold sweat.
The 2nd Elder was firmly staring at Lin Yun. Only a few Elders of the clan knew this secret, so how could this outsider know? How could he know so clearly?
'What should I do? Damnit, is there anything that this outsider doesn't know? '
"Capture him! Interrogate him, he definitely knows the reason! "
"It's over, we are all finished! The Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation is gone, we are also finished …"
"The clan has no future, everyone is screwed …"
"The future of the Dark Elven Race is already decided …"
"I knew it, I knew it, how could my son die so easily …"
…
The scene became chaotic. A large number of Dark Elves collapsed after hearing this news. Some became crazy, some kept crying.
At this time, Lin Yun looked at the few Elders who were on guard and kindly reminded them.
"It's already been a hundred years. If the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation hasn't been found in twenty years, wouldn't the Dark Elven Race slowly go extinct?"
This sentence was the straw that broke the camel's back. The few Elders looked at Lin Yun with cautious expressions. This wasn't something a spy of the clan could know.
Only the five Elders and the Empress knew that the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation had been missing for a hundred years. The Empress hadn't been in the clan for a long time and had officially gone out to look for the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation.
There were still twenty years left. Only the 2nd Elder knew that the Great Elder had gone to the Lightless Dreamland mainly because of the Life Pattern Crystal's Incarnation. He wanted to see if he could advance to the Heaven Rank. When the time came, it would be a bit easier to find the Incarnation.
"Don't regret it later if you don't say it now."
Lin Yun saw the 2nd Elder's expression change and added, "Outsider, I'll give you one last chance. Surrender or don't blame me for being rude."
The Third Elder didn't care and sneered, "Outsider, I'll give you one last chance. Surrender, or else don't blame me for being impolite."
The 2nd Elder had a solemn expression as he berated the 3rd Elder, "3rd Elder, shut up."
The others felt their hearts skip a beat when they saw the 2nd Elder's attitude. The normally taciturn 2nd Elder was berating the 3rd Elder with that kind of attitude. 'Could that outsider be right?'
Sure enough, the 2nd Elder had a pained expression as he waved his hand to make the surrounding Dark Elves scatter. He then said to the other three Elders, "He is right, this is what the Great Elder told me before he fell asleep."
Sure enough, the 2nd Elder had a pained expression as he waved his hand to make the surrounding Dark Elves scatter. He then said to the other three Elders, "He is right, this is what the Great Elder told me before he fell asleep."
This time, even the Third Elder's loyal supporter, the Fifth Elder, had a slight change in expression. The Demonic Qi around his body slowly dissipated, and his gaze towards Lin Yun softened a little.
The Third Elder still wanted to say something, but he was silenced by the Second Elder's glare.
After a long while, the Second Elder slowly began to speak.
"A hundred years ago, it was an ordinary night, but no one knew how it happened. The Incarnation of the Life Pattern Crystal suddenly struggled free from the bindings of the Life Pattern Crystal and transformed into a ray of light that flew away.
After so many years of peace, no one had expected this. It only took a few seconds for the Incarnation to disappear, and no one knew where it went.
"From that point on, the Life Pattern Crystal dimmed and could no longer be used. And changes started appearing in the clan. Misfortune started enveloping the entire clan, and the number of premature deaths of the clan's children started increasing. Many Dark Elves were already unable to give birth, and many of the newly born children were infected with strange diseases.
The number of magic beasts domesticated by the tribe kept decreasing, and the fruit trees they planted also had their yields reduced from time to time or were destroyed by natural disasters. All kinds of natural disasters and man-made disasters seemed to be increasing. For an entire hundred years, ever since the disappearance of the Magic Tool Incarnation, there hadn't been a single healthy child growing up. Even the children born in the past hundred years weren't very talented.
"Even the adult Dark Elves started having all kinds of problems, and the number of accidental deaths kept increasing. In the past hundred years, not only did the number of Dark Elves not increase, it actually decreased …"
