An Luo lay quietly on the smoking ground that was covered in burning rocks. His armor was shattered beyond recognition. He was in a sorry state.
Was it over? His laughable life was over.
An Luo raised his hand slightly. He was still holding onto his sword. The dim light of the blade reflected his bloodied face. He saw his own eyes on the sword.
"You're going to be a Hero. You have to behave appropriately."
"An Luo, you have to know that you're the descendant of a Hero. You have to be one too."
"You're already a Hero. Don't let your emotions affect your decisions. Be more mature."
"You're a Hero. Don't be rash. You have to consider the big picture!"
Countless voices suddenly appeared in An Luo's mind.
"What Hero! I'm just a puppet being manipulated! "
He shouted. Suddenly, he remembered Erica's face. That gentle and ordinary woman.
This time, he didn't want to consider the big picture. He had to save her, even if he had to be a Hero.
An Luo sat up, and the armor on his body fell off, revealing his body that was covered in wounds. However, he didn't care at all. Instead, he propped himself up with his sword and stood up. Countless eyes were all around him, and the huge figure in front of him was also looking at him as if he was an ant.
"Erica, just you wait. I'll save you!"
He suddenly raised his head. The wounds on his body healed rapidly. Terrifying lightning emerged.
Body Fusion was a high-level application of strengthening magic. It could provide a large amount of energy to the body through magic, granting the user terrifying strength. Magic would undergo three changes and fuse with the body. When the magic disappeared, the user's body would be damaged to a certain extent. The degree of damage was related to the degree of fusion.
However, when the degree of fusion exceeded the limit and the magic disappeared, the user would suffer irreversible damage or even death. This was called Body Destruction. It was sacrificing the body in exchange for great power.
An Luo gripped his sword tightly. He crossed the line. His hair quickly turned white and formed a lightning-like hairstyle.
"Lightning!"
He let out a loud roar, and suddenly, thunder rumbled in the sky. Three huge bolts of lightning instantly descended and struck An Luo's body. The power of the lightning was completely absorbed by his body. His clothes were torn apart, and white energy bodies appeared on his body. They weaved into the shape of wings, and a white crescent moon appeared on his chest. It was as if an immortal had descended.
At this moment, his eyes had turned completely white, emitting a terrifying white light. He held his sword with one hand and faced the army.
The silent Demon King suddenly sighed and said, "Let's go."
The Mother Empress, who was sitting beside him and had just grabbed a handful of popcorn, was stunned for a moment. "You're not watching anymore?"
"There's no need."
"But it's not over yet."
The Demon King glanced at her and said, "It's over."
After saying that, the strange bubble suddenly flashed and disappeared on the spot.
The waves of darkness collided with a bolt of lightning. At this moment, in a distant mountain range, there was a long line of people. An old man sitting in a carriage suddenly opened his eyes. He lifted the curtains and looked at the sky in front of him. The pitch-black clouds in the sky flickered with the light of lightning, as if they had trapped the lightning.
"An Luo …"
The old man's eyes became hazy as a strand of white hair fell from his head.
The line continued to advance into the darkness.
… …
In the dark tree hole, there was a weak light. A strange ball of light machine was holding a ball of light in its hands. The surrounding darkness was a bit strange. They didn't seem like shadows, but more like venomous snakes in the dark. Under the flickering light, they became restless and constantly approached the ball of light.
At this moment, a white-haired girl hugged a wooden staff. Her eyes were closed as she leaned against a rock. An elf was sleeping beside her legs. Suddenly, the two of them opened their eyes at the same time.
Buzz!!
A loud sound accompanied by the shaking of the earth and mountains. A huge black hand grabbed onto a large, hollow piece of wood. The two of them quickly flew out of the tree hole, only to see a terrifying tree demon appear in front of them.
Dodoro drew an arrow from the air and nocked it on the bowstring. Then, he fired the arrow at the treant. A bright light flashed and illuminated the treant's face.
"Now!"
Dodoro shouted. Reina held the staff with both hands and charged at the treant.
"Fire!"
Dodoro suddenly stopped when she was five meters away from the treant. She raised the staff at the treant and condensed a ball of flame that danced in the wind. The flame covered the treant's body.
"Let's go!"
Dodoro and Mister Ball picked up their bags.
"Alright!"
Lena stopped the magic in her hand and immediately ran back. At this time, the Treant broke through the flames, and its poisonous thorny vines flew out with a slap, breaking many trees with a bang.
Dodoro jumped onto a branch and pressed his hand on the tree. The dark trees around them gathered and formed a wall.
"Come here!"
Reina was still behind them, but Dodoro left a hole for her. Reina slid into the hole while Mister Ball ran into it.
Boom!!
A loud crash was heard, and countless broken branches fell from the top of their heads, falling on top of their heads like the beating of a drum.
Dodoro drew a magic circle on the ground and the three of them stood together.
"Let's go. Hold on tight."
"Okay!"
Reina and Mister Ball grabbed Dodoro's clothes.
The magic circle on the ground glowed, and the three of them disappeared.
Boom!!
The treant smashed through the wall of trees, but the two humans were nowhere to be seen.
At this time, a glowing white owl landed on the ground in the distance. Reina and Dodoro were panting.
"We're safe for now."
Dodoro put down his bow and leaned against a rock.
"Gosh, I can't even get a good night's sleep."
She complained.
Reina, on the other hand, stood up and walked toward the sun. There was a huge shadow in the dark forest. It was still far away, but she could already see its outline.
She held a gemstone that had turned dark red, and her face was gloomy.
"We don't have much time. The Heart of the Tree is losing its vitality."
"There's nothing we can do. There's only the two of us. You've seen how scary the Dark Forest is. We'll be lucky if we can make it out alive."
Dodoro didn't care. As an elf, she didn't care about the Heart of the Tree at all. She just wanted to lie down and sleep.
Reina looked at the cold Heart of the Tree in her hand. After a week of hard work, they were only able to enter the outer layer of the Dark Forest. The Heart of the Tree seemed to be in a bad condition. They didn't have much time left.
"What do we do? We don't have enough time! "
Reina anxiously paced around. Dodoro, who was trying to sleep, frowned and covered his ears.
"What do we do? We're going to fail! "
When Dodoro was about to ignore her, Reina walked up to her and yelled at her.
Dodoro didn't respond. "What should we do? What should we do? Is there any way we can get into the forest?" Reina asked Dodoro.
"Ahhh! This is so annoying! Why should we care so much about this? It's not like those elves expect us to succeed anyway. "
Hearing this, Linnai froze for a moment before saying, "How could that be …"
Dodoro frowned and sat up. He looked at Reina and asked, "Are you an idiot?"
"Nope."
"I didn't ask you to answer! Idiot! " "I don't know why you're working so hard either. You're just an outsider. Even if you succeed, the elves will only thank you." Dodoro sighed and said, "I don't know why you're working so hard.
"But, I've already made a promise to someone. Since I've made a promise to someone, I must fulfill it." Linnai replied.
Dodoro glanced at her. He didn't know who had influenced her to become like this.
"Don't worry, even if we fail, the elves won't be destroyed so easily. The previous Divine Tree will die, and the new Elven King will become a new Divine Tree. Do you understand? The previous Elven King didn't want that person to become a Divine Tree and lose their freedom. That's all."
Reina lowered her head and looked at the Heart of the Tree. "I don't understand. I just want to save it."
Dodoro sighed and closed his eyes. "But you can't do it. You can't even control your own power. What can you do? Just give up. You've done your best. No one will blame you."
She opened her eyes to see the results of her lecture, but all she saw was Dodoro's teary face.
Reina's mouth drooped as she looked at Dodoro with a pitiful expression.
"Hey, what's with that face? Don't tell me … "
"Wah! Wah! Sister Dodoro, think of something! "
Reina cried as she leaned against Dodoro. Dodoro was born in an orphanage and was terrified of children's cries. She couldn't do anything about it.
"Ah! Really, how old are you? Why are you still crying? Alright, alright, I got it. Shut up, I'll think of a way. "
Dodoro said helplessly.
"Really?"
Lina immediately raised her head and smiled with tears on her face.
A haze flashed across Dodoro's face. "Yes."
She then took out a silver tablet that was engraved with magic runes.
"I hope they're not too far away."
Dodoro murmured to herself. She lowered her head and pressed something on the silver sign.
Suddenly, the badge lit up and flashed red. Dodoro took the badge and put it next to his ear while looking around. His behavior was very strange in front of Reina.
"Hello?"
Dodoro suddenly called out. She quickly moved the tablet away from her ear.
"Hello my ass! What the hell are you doing? It's not even dawn yet! Shut up! "
A rude voice came from the tablet. Reina was startled, but Dodoro didn't seem to care.
"Why are you the one answering? Where's Lilith? Is she dead? "
Dodoro asked again when the voice stopped.
"No, she's not. Thank you for asking. "
Suddenly, a woman's voice came out from the sign. Lena felt that it was extremely mysterious. She curiously looked at the sign and discovered that it wasn't a red light, but a green light.
"What's the matter? If we find out that you're calling us on a whim, we'll beat you up right away."
"Of course not. I'm also annoyed to death." Dodoro glanced at the girl.
"What's wrong? You're annoyed too? "
The middle-aged man's voice became softer and more serious.
"Well, I guess you can say that. I'm the prettiest girl in the team. You must be sad to see me die, lecherous uncle." Dodoro said. In Reina's eyes, Dodoro seemed to have changed into a different person. She didn't know who she was talking to.
"Who is it? Who's lecherous? Speaking of which, where did you get your confidence from? "
"Hey, I'm hanging up. We still need to rest."
The woman's voice came again.
"Wait, I really need your help this time. Put that guy on the phone." Dodoro hurriedly said. She knew that the red-haired woman was a woman of her words. It would be troublesome if the woman turned off the phone.
"Hey."
After a few seconds of silence, a deep male voice came from the other side. Reina's heart started pounding when she heard the voice.
What's this feeling?
She felt that something was wrong. Something was very wrong. She seemed to want to remember something, but she couldn't remember it.
"It's me, Dodoro. Help."
Dodoro said.
A sigh came from the other side. "Does it have anything to do with the Elven King?"
Dodoro frowned. The other side guessed it right away.
"Yes."
"I told you, it's useless. It's just a waste of time."
Dodoro lowered his head.
"Yes."
"I'm sorry, but we really can't help you this time. We've run into some trouble on our side."
These words caused Linnai to feel anxious. Was there really no other way?
"Hey, it's not related to this, but I think it's better if you come."
But Dodoro frowned and said in a serious tone.
"What is it?"
"There's a little girl with me. I think she has something to do with you."
Hearing this, Linnai was stunned. Little girl?
She looked around.
"There's no little girl?"
She didn't realize that Dodoro was talking about her until she finished her sentence.
"Me?"
Reina pointed at herself.
Dodoro glanced at her but didn't say anything.
"Little girl? You didn't secretly give birth to a child, did you?! "
"Of course not! He's not that kind of person! "
"What's wrong?"
The other side of the sign became noisy.
"She has your Ring of Healing on her finger …"
Dodoro raised his other hand. There was a ring with a green gem on his middle finger. Reina raised her hand as well. It looked exactly the same.
The other side of the sign fell into silence.
"What's her name?"
"Reina."
Dodoro said firmly.
