Chapter 964

"A book …?"

Shien immediately turned his gaze to the package in La Xia's hands.

Merica, You Lin, Genom, and the others did the same. They all looked at the package with complicated expressions.

Everyone present knew that it was a Book of the Past in the form of a stone tablet.

It was obvious that the newborn Primordial Demon had set its sights on this item.

Danas the demon, that scheming young master, also wanted this item.

Since that was the case, it should be of considerable value.

"Have you seen the records on the stone tablets?"

Shien asked Caroline and Genom.

Caroline and Genom shook their heads.

"The magic power on it is too terrifying. We feel like our eyes are burning when we look at it. It hurts."

"The moment I look at it, I feel like my head has been hit hard. I feel dizzy and can't see anything at all."

That was what the two said.

The magic power on the stone tablets was probably quite special. It wasn't a lot in terms of quantity, but it was worlds apart from ordinary magic in terms of quality.

Shien hadn't sensed anything unusual when he first saw the package. It was only after he took it that the Demonic Howl Chain in his body reacted. This proved that the magic power in the package wasn't that strong, just special.

La Xia also instinctively sensed that the item inside was related to the Demon King.

Lilith, on the other hand, had sensed the abnormality from a long distance away.

Combining Caroline and Genom's words, Shien had reason to believe that the power and records on these ancient stone tablets could only be sensed by someone with a certain level of strength, or they had to meet special conditions.

Otherwise, they would end up like Caroline and Genom — not only could they not see anything, but they would also suffer.

At this moment, La Xia suddenly expressed.

"Can I see the stone tablet inside?"

The maid, who had no selfish desires, actually made such a request at this time.

It was obvious that La Xia cared a lot about the records left behind by the Demon King.

Shien was the same.

"I want to see it too."

He expressed his wishes.

Genom and the others didn't have any objections to this. Only Caroline's expression turned serious.

"If you want to see it, I won't stop you." Caroline gazed at Shien and glanced at La Xia. "But it's not suitable for us to be here. I hope you'll consider it carefully, hero."

Hearing Caroline's words, Shien and La Xia immediately understood what she meant.

The vice-captain of the elven corps wanted to say that they might be affected by the stone tablet if they were here, so it was best for them to leave.

Additionally, although she wouldn't stop them, she didn't approve of Shien and would be.

On Sean's side, Caroline was probably worried that he would also be affected by the stone slab.

Caroline, on the other hand, had some misgivings.

That was only natural.

La Xia was the Demon King's pure body. Sophie, Reiya, and Niya had already discovered this when Shien and the others had first arrived at the elven homeland.

Judging from Caroline's current behavior, she probably knew about this as well.

Since that was the case, no one could guarantee that nothing would go wrong if they handed the records left behind by the Demon King to La Xia, who was the pure body of the Demon King.

What if this caused some changes in Ji Xia's body and caused her to awaken something dangerous?

At that time, it wouldn't be a joke anymore.

Hence, Caroline wouldn't stop Shien and La Xia from looking at the stone tablet. Instead, she reminded Shien to think it over.

At the very least, she wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility as the vice-captain of the elven corps if anything went wrong.

"…"

La Xia fell silent.

Shien was also a little hesitant after hearing the meaning behind Caroline's words.

However, Shien glanced at the silent La Xia, and his heart suddenly softened.

"How about this." Shien thought about it and decided, "Let's bring the stone tablet back to the elven homeland first. After meeting up with Naduna and the others, we'll take a good look at the stone tablet."

This was just in case.

If the thing on the stone tablet really stimulated La Xia, with Naduna and Artemis present and him, they should be able to deal with it in time even if something happened.

Although Shien didn't feel anything bad, and the blessings given to him by the Overgod didn't bring any warnings or revelations, it was very quiet, and nothing big should really happen. But as the saying went, it was better to be safe than sorry. If the object was related to the Demon King, it was never too much to be careful.

Thinking of this, Shien made this decision.

"That's for the best."

Only then did Caroline feel more at ease.

La Xia was still silent and didn't say anything, but her expression had become extremely calm. Evidently, she understood Shien's intentions and accepted this arrangement.

"What if we return to the elven homeland now?"

Merica asked impatiently.

She was quite worried about the situation in the elven homeland, and if they could hurry back to take a look, she would more or less be at ease.

The others naturally didn't have any objections.

"Her Majesty definitely doesn't know about the situation here."

"Her Majesty must be worried, right?"

"Hurry up and bring it back."

"Don't let the queen and Goddess Naduna wait too long."

The group of elven girls expressed this way.

Of course, it wasn't that they didn't have selfish motives.

Even now, they still felt very uncomfortable with the clothes they were wearing. They wanted nothing more than to hurry home and change out of them.

It was really hard on the innocent Elven girls to expose so much of their skin and stand under the sun all the time.

Not to mention with Shien here, even if he wasn't, they would still feel embarrassed and ashamed.

It was especially so for the Elven girls with especially good figures. They had to hide behind someone else.

Seeing this, Shien hesitated for a moment, and then decided to propose a mature idea.

"Want to take a picture together as a souvenir? I have a crystal prop with me. "

It was such a mature idea.

Unfortunately …

"No!" "No!" "No!"

The girls shrieked in unison and jumped up and down, rejecting this proposal.

"What a pity."

Shien smiled at this.

"You rascal …"

"Bad guy!"

"Mr. Shien …"

"Perverted Master!"

Caroline, Genom, Merica, and even Yolin were either speechless, angry, hesitant, or full of disdain.

Only La Xia continued to hold her bag, standing there with a calm expression.

“？”

Lilith, who was lying on her side on Yolin's back, rubbed her eyes. No one knew when she had woken up. Looking at the chaotic scene, she tilted her head and typed skillfully.

Perhaps, the one who was truly pure and innocent was this little goddess.

…

The Forest of Tagore, the home of elves.

After a few months, the home of elves had changed a lot compared to the time of the peace sacrifice.

In the village, the condition of the streets had changed, and the location of the treehouses was completely different from before. Even the number of trees had decreased by a lot, as if it was being rebuilt after a natural disaster. Elves could be seen everywhere, busy figures could be seen.

Some of the elves were transporting resources, some were planting trees, some were using magic to pave roads and build houses, and some were holding parchments that looked like blueprints and discussing something. It seemed like there were a thousand things waiting to be done.

It was inevitable that things would turn out like this.

This was because not long ago, this place had encountered a large-scale attack by the newborn [Original Demons].

Not only did the army of the newborn [Original Demons] arrive, even the enemy's two supreme level generals had arrived, breaking the enchantment that the Goddess of Nature had set up here for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Not only did the elves have to fight against the attacking monster army, but the Goddess of Nature, Nadur, and the Goddess of Justice, Artemis, had also fought against the two supreme level beings of the enemy here. In the end, even the Goddess of Fate, Lidas, had rushed over.

With such a disaster and such a fierce battle, the home of the elves had long been turned into ruins in that battle, razed to the ground by the terrifying power.

Fortunately, in the end, the elves had successfully repelled the enemy, and thanks to the relationship with the goddesses, there were not many casualties.

Of course, as long as the people were still there, the situation of the village had become too bad. Even with the help of magic, in less than a month, it could only recover to this extent.

However, in the village, the towering tree that reached the clouds, the Queen's Palace, was still there.

It was not that it had survived the fierce battle, but that after the battle, the Goddess of Nature, Nadur, had used her own power to give birth to it immediately. That was why it still had such a scene.

The Queen's Palace had also landed on the tree, but its position was higher than before, as if it wanted to overlook the entire Forest of Tagore, and react as soon as the enemy appeared.

That was the impact that the battle had on the home of the elves.

At this moment, at the top of the Queen's Palace, the Queen of the Elves stood facing the wind with a scepter in her hand.

She looked at the other end of the sea of trees, as if she was looking at something, and maintained this posture for a long time.

After a while, a gentle and dignified voice sounded from behind Sophie.

"Are you waiting for Caroline and the others to return?"

Hearing the voice, Sophie returned to her senses, immediately turned around, and bowed to the goddess who had appeared out of nowhere.

"Goddess Nadur."

The person who had come was naturally Nadur.

Nadur landed gently in front of Sophie, and smiled gently at Sophie.

"Very worried, right?"

Nadur could see through Sophie's thoughts.

Sophie wanted to shake her head, but she knew that in front of the Goddess of Nature, who was equivalent to their mother, it was useless to hide it.

Sophie could only nod.

"I was just thinking, would it be too dangerous for Caroline and the others to carry out such a mission?"

Sophie was worried about such a thing.

"The target item is something that all newborn Primal Demons are looking for. That Demon Man Danas invaded the elven home probably to find it." Sophie said worriedly, "Under such circumstances, will it really be okay to let those children who haven't even reached the Legendary level collect those stone slabs?"

That was why Sophie had been feeling so restless.

It wasn't that Nadur didn't understand Sophie's feelings.

It was just that …

"If we don't send those children, then we can only let Reiya and Niya, or you and I go personally." Nadur said helplessly, "But I can't enter the ruins protected by the power of the Demon King, and the three of you are the core of the elven race. If you leave for no reason, you will definitely attract the attention of the enemy. When that happens, the magical beings that have been active outside will not sit idly by."

In summary, the two of them could only let Caroline lead a portion of the elven elites to carry out this mission.

This was to not attract the attention of the enemy.

But now, it was already so late, and Caroline and the others had not returned.

This made Sophie and even Nadia a little uneasy.
