As the Demon King, Roschinke was the closest being to pure darkness in the world.
In other words, as long as he was alive, he was the carrier of darkness, the master of darkness, and everything was under his control.
It was supposed to be like this.
The Demon King was born from the darkness.
But now, Luo Xienke smelled a hint of conspiracy.
After he died and entered the Hero's body, he was unable to come into contact with the dark elements and dark abilities of the outside world for a long time. The Hero Xu Jun was able to isolate these things.
But Xu Jun didn't rely on his body, but his soul. Roschinke could sense that Xu Jun's body was only very resistant and sturdy, but his soul was the real treasure. It was like a faint flickering star in the night, automatically expelling all negative things.
If this had happened tens of thousands of years ago and the God of the Underworld was still alive, His Majesty would have gone to great lengths to extract this soul for his collection.
Xu Jun's soul wasn't something a human should have.
At that time, Roschinke had said that the Hero was extraordinarily gifted. He had even probed Xu Jun, saying that his soul seemed to be able to expel the dark elements. Then, he prepared to find out if the Hero's ancestor was some great figure.
After all, there were humans tens of thousands of years ago, but at that time, humans didn't even have a proper civilization … But if it was an ancient human who had a relationship with a god, then it would make sense!
Your Majesty The Demon King even had a guess. He thought that Xu Jun might not even know the origin of his bloodline. After all, it had been tens of thousands of years, but his words still carried some meaning.
Sometimes, he would say strange things, which might have something to do with his family.
Every family would have a legend passed down. The strange words Xu Jun said might be a legend passed down by him.
"Your soul is very beautiful and can expel all darkness. This isn't something an ordinary person can do." One day, the Demon King Roschinke pretended to praise him.
— — Her tone was extremely fake. In her heart, she was thinking, 'So what if you can expel those scattered dark elements? The darkest soul in the world has already invaded your body.'
However, Xu Jun couldn't detect the sarcasm in his "sincere" praise. He said happily, "Yes, yes! That's why I was able to kill the Demon King! "
"I'm wearing the universal Soul Protection Badge given by Daddy Squall!"
At that time, when the Demon King heard this, he thought to himself, 'As expected, he really has a background!'
However, it was useless. Who exactly was this person …? He still didn't know. _ (: 3) ∠) _
In short, because Your Majesty The Demon King's soul was incomparably weak at that time, he couldn't detect the situation in the outside world. He also didn't know that the dark elements outside were being stirred up by another power.
At that time, he was in the stage where his relationship with Xu Jun was on the rise, and every day was very fulfilling. Xu Jun was a chatterbox and a clown. Every day, he would do some stupid things to make the Demon King amused or angry. Your Majesty The Demon King was also very happy to be pleased.
In the beginning, he was drooling over this hero's body, which might have some divine bloodline. Now, he was drooling over this person. This progress was very fast.
As a result of the Demon King's too fulfilling life, the Ice Lord brought his "corpse" over. He was unwilling to leave. He didn't know what other people were trying to do by using the dark elements, but he didn't notice before.
— — The Ice Lord's heart was simply broken.
Luoxienk didn't feel anything about it. Since the dark element could be used by him, it was only natural that others could use it as well. Some things were destined to belong to him and that couldn't be changed because of some people's schemes. After discovering the changes in the outside world, he became even more calm. He didn't ask Xu Jun to come into contact with the Tree of Life, nor did he ask him to absorb the dark elements within it to return to his own body.
In fact, when Xu Jun and a group of Holy Light Elves went to see the Tree of Life, it was a very good opportunity. However, at that time, Roschinke didn't take action. This wasn't because he didn't need to absorb the dark elements, but because he found that it wasn't the best time.
The dark elements seemed to have swallowed the Tree of Life, but in fact, it hadn't fully matured. True darkness could only be born in death.
"Don't worry, Xu Jun," he comforted the hero: "This disaster wasn't caused by you. Things haven't reached the point of no return yet."
Xu Jun sighed. He was in a state similar to Queen Ellie a few days ago.
He frowned and clapped his hands: "Although I haven't used my Holy Spirit Potion yet … … I'm afraid it won't have any effect. Prince Leon, let's taste this Aqua Fish that is said to be raised in the spring water around the Tree of Life."
"If the Tree of Life is really … … then I'm afraid we won't be able to eat such delicious food again."
Xu Jun looked at the Aqua Fish soup and thought to himself. The vegetable soup's effect was to recover 1 HP per second, and the bone meat soup's effect was to recover 5 HP per second. Only the Aqua Fish soup's effect was to recover 50 HP per second! It was almost comparable to the Health Potion! And it didn't even have a cooldown!
Should I take all the Aqua Fish out of the spring water before the Tree of Life is destroyed? _ (: 3,∠) _
Roshyank The Devil couldn't understand Xu Jun's true thoughts. In his opinion, this guy was just greedy.
If it was Xu Jun, he would definitely say something along the lines of, "Can the Brave Ones be called greedy?" or something along those lines.
… …
The Holy Light Elves were in a terrible fix. Ellie and the elders were already worried sick about the Tree of Life. Now, a group of Moonlight Elves had come to the Saint Origin Highlands and were eyeing them covetously. This made them even more annoyed.
The two Elves were neighbors, but their relationship had always been bad. At this critical moment, the Moonlight Elves suddenly came over and were hesitant to say what they were here for. Queen Ellie almost suspected that there were spies from her own race who were passing information to the Moonlight Elves.
Of course, they didn't know that the elders of the Moonlight Elves were hesitant to say what they were here for because they didn't have the face to say it! They had been fighting with the Holy Light Elves for so many years. At their peak, they had swallowed half of the Saint Origin Highlands. At their weakest, the Holy Light Elves had burned down the Emerald Forest for a whole 50,000 years! It was said that the two Elves had been enemies since before the Great War of Gods and Demons!
They had been fighting for so many years! They had never been afraid!
But now, for the Tree of Life … … they were actually begging the Holy Light Elves!
How could the Moonlight Elves, who had always cared about their reputation, say this out loud?
The Moonlight Elf Elder was called Dutt. He was the most gentle Elder in the Moonlight Elf Race. He was in charge of the rituals and sacrifices of the Moonlight Elves. Because he was too weak, he was not popular among the Moonlight Elves. As a result, the Moonlight Elf King wanted to choose a soft-tempered person who wouldn't stir up trouble to handle this matter, so he directly asked for Dutt.
In the end, Dutt didn't stir up any trouble. The Moonlight Elf King's favorite Prince Linka … … had already attracted all the hatred.
The Moonlight Elf King originally thought that although Linka had a bad temper and was a little arrogant, he could still understand the situation. Now that the Moonlight Elves had reached the most critical moment, Linka, as a prince, usually enjoyed the honor and glory. When it was time for him to contribute, he should also have the courage to sacrifice himself.
Not to mention, he was only going to be a hostage. It seemed dangerous, but in fact, it was safe. The Holy Light Elves were arrogant and would never deliberately torture their people. Moreover, if Linka died in the Saint Origin Highlands as a hostage, people would only say that the Holy Light Elves were too narrow-minded and vented their anger on the poor hostage. This would not be good for the Holy Light Elves' reputation.
If a fight really broke out, it would be a direct confrontation between the Moonlight Elves and the Holy Light Elves. Linka's life would not be in danger.
The Moonlight Elf King thought very well. He also thought that his son would understand.
But … … how could he know that his son's brain was different from ordinary people's? He went to other people's territory and didn't know how to behave with his tail between his legs. Instead, he steadily attracted a wave of hatred.
Prince Linka, of course, didn't know what his father was thinking. After coming to the Saint Origin Highlands, he spent half of his time looking down on the rude and weak Holy Light Elves. He used the other half of his time to feel sorry for his face that was beaten crooked by that bullshit Hero Xu Jun.
Yes! His face was crooked! Damn it!!!
Prince Linka now held a mirror almost every day. The exquisite and beautiful prince could no longer be found in the mirror! His nose was broken by Xu Jun. After Elder Duterte cured him, he didn't know why but he always felt that something was wrong! His cheeks were also asymmetrical! The left side was higher and the right side was lower! One of his front teeth was also knocked out!
He was too ashamed to see others!
Prince Linka was very sad and indignant. Elder Duterte heard him curse the Hero Xu Jun with all kinds of vicious prophecies. He advised the prince to restrain himself. After all, they were now in the Saint Origin Highlands, not the Emerald Forest. The Holy Light Elves had always disliked the Moonlight Elves.
If he was an ordinary person, he would probably stop. But Prince Linka didn't listen to his advice. He had been spoiled too much in his life. He was smart and ruthless. His ability to cause trouble was far beyond his father's imagination.
For example, now, Elder Duterte thought for a long time and told Prince Linka the truth of the matter. He told him the real purpose of their trip to the Saint Origin Highlands and Prince Linka's mission. Elder Duterte's original intention was to let Prince Linka recognize the truth. As long as he could accept his status as a hostage, he wouldn't cause any trouble.
But how could Linka accept it? He would remember the humiliation he received from the Holy Light Elves for the rest of his life! The Holy Light Elves and that Xu Jun!
Elder Duterte wanted him to stop, but he wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.
Prince Linka thought for a while, then called his confidant and ordered him to do some things.
