"Is that so?" Although Yuktrasir's voice was different from Fasnath's, it didn't reveal too much emotion. He made the decision and said, "In that case, let's agree on a formal meeting of the high seats in three years."
"Wait a minute! Three years! "A certain someone who was bristling with anger asked loudly," What's the deal with three years? "
"Mr. Tripwood, don't you need time?" Yuktrasir said.
"Time?" Damn! The concept of time of a plant was so different from that of a human! Lin said anxiously, "Three days. I only need three days to prepare. I'm just taking good care of myself. An ordinary human who can live for seventy or eighty years doesn't have three years to waste. So please be considerate and wait for me for three days. "
After calming down a little, Lin looked at the high seats and said, "And since everyone is here, I'd like to ask, where are you all rooted?"
As he spoke, he used a whiteboard to show a map of the maze. There were no extra markings. There were only the locations of the three World Trees, Wadwal, Lahti, and Fasnath underground. As for Yuktrasir's location, because they only knew the approximate territory and didn't know the exact location, it wasn't marked.
Although the location of the World Trees wasn't a secret, it wasn't public information either. So Mackinin, who loved to compete with a certain human Mage, asked, "What do you want to do with our exact location?"
"In my hometown, there's a so-called geomantic omen. It refers to the existence and location of things, which will affect the changes of other things. So I want to know the locations of as many World Trees as possible to measure the influence between you. I even want to know if all the World Trees have an impact on the maze. Your Majesties aren't completely unrelated to each other. That's right, isn't it? I just want to find the answer to this' why 'from all aspects. "
There was a reasonable reason, which was that the World Trees were willing to cooperate. With the cooperation of the first World Tree, there would be a second and a third. Soon, all the high-level members of the Turtledove Alliance had marked out the places where they had taken root. At the same time, they also marked the locations of the World Trees that weren't present on Lin's map. Just as someone had said, the World Trees were not completely unrelated individuals. There was indeed some kind of connection between them.
After receiving the location and agreeing to meet three days later, Lin quickly ran off. If they continued to stay here, no matter who spoke, it was very likely that they would not be able to leave. Fasnath also left because he had nothing to talk about with the other high officials of the Alliance.
Moreover, he was not in a hurry to show off the results of the adjustment of the core magic array. Thus, Fasnath's arrival and departure were equally sudden.
Looking at the two empty benches, Walder's white deer head looked around and asked, "Then, shall we meet again in three days?"
The poplar with the eight Fruits of the World trembled, and Yukthrasher said, "No. It was just a short break. It was too troublesome to leave and come back again. I'll wait here. "
It was hard to tell whether the Ancient was impatient to know the news about the human sorcerer, or if, as he said, he simply found it troublesome to enter and leave the meeting space of the High Seat. Anyway, he sat in his seat and waited quietly. With him as an example, the other World Trees also decided to stay. Three days was just a blink of an eye for them.
They returned to the big hole in the heart of Fasnath's tree. Originally under the influence of the Sleeping Spell, Melanie had already woken up because of her elven constitution and excellent magic resistance. Naked, she was catching up with Cassette Cutting, who had been left behind. As for her injury, it had a miraculous self-healing effect in the heart of the World Tree. She had already recovered.
When she had been in trouble with someone, Melanie had put in a lot of effort to build a good relationship with everyone, hoping to integrate into this group. Of course, she had other purposes, but it did not prevent her from building a good relationship with most people, including the legendary weapon that liked to talk the most — Cassette Cutting.
The cannibal tree that had been left behind did not speak, and Melanie certainly did not dare to disturb her king. As for the human sorcerer, she could not find him, but considering that Cassette Cutting had been left behind, he would probably come back. Sure enough, not long after, Lin once again used the Blink spell to return to this place.
The same black tortoise robe, the same withered appearance of skin and bones. If it were not for the fact that the person in front of her was still alive, Melanie would have suspected that he had been transformed into one of the undead by the Lich who slept next to him.
It was just that Melanie could look at the sorcerer in front of her without any scruples, but someone did not know where to put his eyes. The female Dark Elf laughed and said, "Aren't you afraid of cutting people open and staining the ground with blood? But like me, I can't even look? "
"Yes, I don't know why. Killing people is okay, but looking is not okay. I can't do anything about it myself, "Lin said self-deprecatingly.
"Do you need clothes?" Fasnath suddenly said from the side.
Although it was still in Chinese, it might have been a different language to Melanie's ears. Anyway, she understood and also respectfully half-knelt on the ground and said in the language of the High Elves, "My Lord, your servant does not dare to ask you for anything. After I go out, I will naturally take back what originally belonged to me. "
However, the World Tree still looked as if it did not care about other people's wishes. The power that filled the big hole gradually became denser, and the roots on the ground revealed the glassy roots under the brown color. Countless threads of light extended and intertwined around Melanie's body as if they were weaving a robe.
The Dark Elf who got up looked at the thing that was gradually taking shape from bottom to top in surprise. When she realized that this "robe" might be a robe woven by the World Tree in the legends that only Archdruids were qualified to wear, she was scared out of her wits. She did not dare to move at all and let her Majesty do whatever he wanted.
It did not take the World Tree too much time to weave such a robe. The magic runes that were added during the weaving process were all seen by a certain someone. It was a long robe woven using the World Tree's own defensive barrier as the foundation of the formation patterns.
Moreover, Fasnath's understanding of protection was far from what that young Walder could compare to. Lin estimated that a robe woven with Fasnath's protective runes might have a similar defensive ability against foreign energy. However, Lin You noticed the runes that belonged to the Magic Shield in it, which meant that this robe would also have decent physical defense.
As for the style of the robe … How should he describe it? Very retro? In short, it was the kind of ancient elven clothing that had long robes, narrow sleeves, a sleeveless shawl that hung down to the hip, and a belt that was as wide as a palm. However, the complicated and exquisite patterns on the belt and shawl were too much for the eye to take in. When one stared at it, one would even have the illusion that they would be sucked in. This feature could also be seen as a sign of the strength of the Magic Authority.
When this robe was finished, Fasnath embroidered an additional three-feathered bird totem on a black background and silver thread at the tip of the collar. This was probably the mark that represented his position in the Turtledove Alliance. Melanie, who had not dared to move until now, half-knelt on the ground after the robe was finished and lowered his head in silence.
Melanie understood that this Majesty's gift was definitely not without a price. If he had not paid the price, then the only thing he had to do was to wait quietly for orders.
Of course, Lin was not very familiar with Fasnath and the various customs of this Dark Elf Tribe. However, he did not interrupt the entire process. Instead, he compared the power and methods displayed by the World Tree to his own use of the jacquard machine. With this comparison, he actually gained a lot of insight and thought of some ways to improve the jacquard machine, although they were all small areas.
When the robe was finished and Melanie was half-kneeling again, Lin was still thinking of his own improvement plans. At this moment, Fasnath spoke. "Human, I promised to give you the reward you deserve. This is the first one."
Lin did not bother to correct this Tree that liked to use such a contemptuous term. Instead, he smiled and said, "Oh, isn't it strange that the reward you wanted to give me is being worn by someone else?"
"The reward I'm referring to is not that robe. It's her. "
"Her?" For a moment, Lin did not understand what he meant. He just turned his head to look at the Dark Elf who was half-kneeling and did not even raise her head.
At this moment, Fasnath said, "Female, from now on, you are this human's slave. At the same time, you are also the bridge between me and him. You must serve him with the attitude of serving me. For this reason, I will bestow upon you my blessings, and at the same time allow you to honor my name. In the future, you will call yourself Melanie Fah. "
"Yes, my Lord. Your will will be my life's mission. "Melanie Fah calmly accepted her fate of being a slave.
However, the other party was not so calm. Although Lin didn't explode, he was still startled. "Wait a moment, Your Majesty isn't even going to ask me if I agree to this matter?" His mind was in a bit of a mess, so he directly used the most commonly used maze language in the past decade or so. Melanie Fah of course understood, but she looked at the person's back with grievance.
Fasnath, however, replied domineeringly, "You are free to do whatever you want with the things I gave you. Of course, I will not interfere. Treat her as a slave, treat her as a slave or not. Even if you want her to die, she must die in the way you want her to. Moreover, she is no longer suitable to stay by my side. If she stays, she will only experience the same thing again. She will still lose her life. If she stays by your side, she can also be my mouthpiece and convey my intentions to you. Then, human, do you still want to refuse? "
Although it was a question, it was not a tone that would allow one to refuse.
Moreover, this reason could not be more sufficient. Indeed, as Fasnath said, Melanie was no longer suitable to stay in the Dark Elf Tribe. Even if she was now blessed by the World Tree and had the powerful magic equipment personally made by Fasnath, she might not be able to avoid a plot from behind.
In any case, they were companions who had gone through thick and thin together. Although Melanie had her own thoughts, at least she would not threaten someone's life. Of course, Lin could not just watch her in danger and not help at all. That would be too heartless.
