On the last day of summer, the war clouds over the Elf Kingdom finally dissipated completely.

After a whole day of heavy rain, the warm sunshine will once again fall on this sacred land, and the trees will seem to be washed anew. All traces of war damage have been cleared from this land. At first glance , it still looks like the paradise in memory.

Only the black palm statue on Heather Lake still cruelly alerts all the elves, and only the broken trees and branches in Unicorn Bay still tell the story of pain.

However, Vincent's mood seemed relatively relaxed. For humans, war is something that happens frequently in life, rather than the kind of catastrophe that only occurs once in thousands of years. Without the elves' infinite nostalgia for such cruel things, humans could quickly cheer up from the pain in order to face the next pain.

In any case, after the Elf Queen found her daughter, she decided to hold a gathering in Heather's grand palace. Commemorate those compatriots who gave their lives for victory, and reward those souls who worked hard for freedom.

Vincent, Sokka and Shelley also attended this gathering, and Pastor Kubert was with him. The only one missing from the group was the princess Yi Linrui.

Soka looked very energetic in her new clothes. She would sometimes stop and ask Vincent strangely about the whereabouts of Yi Linrui. The mage touched her head: "She should be taken with her mother."

Shelley was a little nervous about attending this elf gathering. The armor on her body had been badly damaged in the battle, and she could not wear elven equipment. A hastily made gray robe became her outer garments. However, Shelley, who is used to being on guard all day long, is not used to such casual clothes.

Kubert lowered his head, looking humble. He walked at the front of the team, constantly greeting the elves who saluted them along the way. As expected of the chief priest who has been responsible for negotiating affairs for a long time.

There were a lot of elves gathered in the temple, and many elven elders other than Heather also gathered together. Her Majesty the Queen said when she convened the meeting that this would be an important gathering of the entire Elf Kingdom. It would be the first meeting attended by all the Elf elders since the War of Wizards and Gods a thousand years ago.

"My compatriots. Friends." Hern Fanrui nodded to Vincent and others: "We have gone through a difficult moment. This is a difficult war. After extraordinary efforts and heartbreaking efforts, we have gone through a difficult moment. After the price, we can finally stand here and celebrate our hard-won victory..."

Vincent's attention was not on Her Majesty the Queen's speech. He had basically guessed most of what the Queen would say. Now all he was thinking about was the original purpose of coming to the Elf Kingdom - the third part of the Arcane Secret Scroll .

In the Dark Elf City, Vincent has used the Scepter of Prophecy to explore the whereabouts of other arcane scrolls . However, due to limited abilities, he only found the next chapter, which recorded the magic scroll of advanced creation. As long as you have the knowledge on this secret scroll . Vincent can create countless golem troops like the ancient great arcanists ; he can also use his transformation and conjuration spells to create living objects. He even estimated that as long as he learned the things on the scroll in Chapter 3, he would have the same healing power as a priest.

Therefore, he is very eager to improve his ability to a higher level. The only trouble is how to get the scroll. Because that scroll is the holy stone that keeps this temple beautiful and fills the entire holy mountain with endless vitality.

"I wonder if the Elf Queen will agree to this request." Vincent thought: "Even though she has done a lot of work in this war, would it be impolite to speak rashly?"

"Here, we are grateful to our friends from outside the kingdom. Their dedication is more worthy of our respect." There was not much time for Vincent to think. The Elf Queen has turned the topic to a few of them: "I would like to solemnly introduce Vincent, Kubert and Shelley to all the elders."

The elves all focused their attention on Vincent, and they expressed their gratitude with friendly expressions. But Vincent discovered it keenly. Several elders seemed to have doubts about the dark elf name " Shelley", and their eyes stayed on her for more time.

"Elders, among these three people, I would like to give a special honor to one of them, that is, to call her our compatriot and an elf. In her blood, I see kindness and dedication. It would be very unfair to judge her character based on where she was born."

When several elders heard this, they looked at the Elf Queen in confusion. From the Queen's words, they can think of many possibilities. But in this case. They will not have any objection to the decision made by Hern Van Rui .

"I hereby declare that Shelley will be a member of the elves. If you wish, everyone will call you by an elven name.

I thought that Saramida would be a perfect fit, "Friend of the Elves". "

Shelley was unprepared for this sudden title. Her eyes fell on Vincent and asked what she should do. However, the mage did not give a decisive answer and just let her decide on her own.

"Thank you Queen for your kindness." Shelley stood up and said: "I don't know what language I should use to express my feelings now. This is the best gift I have received since I came to the ground. Obtaining the identity of an elf allows me to It’s easier for me to get in and out of Salantir, but I can only politely decline the new name I got. Regarding the word friend, I think I haven’t done enough; and I haven’t given up on my current name. Its reason. Shelley is just a title now, a title that everyone around me is familiar with, and this is enough."

After saying that, she sat down directly.

The Elf Queen said nothing more, but nodded in agreement. Then she turned to Kubot: "Priest of the Holy Greafury , thank you for all you have done. Is there any place for the elves that I can be of service to you?"

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Kubert stood up and paid tribute to Her Majesty the Queen in the manner of the Church of the God of Light: "Dear Your Majesty, the reward I can receive is the praise and encouragement given to me by the God of Light, which has given my heart the greatest blessing. Comfort. I came here this time with a mission, which is to form a stronger friendship with the elves of Salantir. Now both countries have gone through arduous wars. If Her Majesty the Queen needs us to do anything, , I will be happy to report to the Temple Bishop.”

"I think. The friendship between Salantir and the Holy Greafury will still remain and continue to strengthen." The Queen said: "And, in the near future, there will be a more brutal battle ready to test those of us who live in Mortal creatures, and we must be prepared for this. When the orc army is raging in the sacred land of Greafury , we elves will also lend a helping hand. Archdruid Nostar has drawn up a list of names. Some elven warriors will be asked to support the friends of Holy Greafury . This will also be an exercise and test for them."

"I am very grateful to Her Majesty the Queen and the Elf Elders for making this decision." Kubot said with a smile: "I guarantee that they will receive the best reception in Greafury ."

"So, Master Vincent. Old friend. What do you need?" The Elf Queen said with a smile: "All the treasures of our Elf clan are open to you."

"Well..." Vincent stood up and scratched his head: "To be honest, it's right to do something for the friends here, but I do have something I want." He decided to speak directly to the point, and looked at him confidently Looking into the eyes of Her Majesty the Queen: "There is a stone in the holy land of the elves. In the elven language, it is called 'Linda Tasuo', which is the stone that breeds life. As far as I know, it is a stone that has existed for a long time. The magic scroll and the knowledge recorded on it are very attractive to me. However, I know..."

"I will hand over the scroll to you." The Elf Queen said: "In addition, there is also the Necromantic Orb obtained from Fei Yi'an."

"Your Majesty the Queen. Linda Taso is one of Heather's sacred objects. How can you leave the scope of this holy mountain?" An elder said: "Please reconsider this decision."

"Yes, we elves also have our own excellent magic traditions. Maybe those precious magic scrolls will be a better choice."

The Elf Queen waved her hand to stop all the noise at the meeting. She explained: "Without Vincent's help, the fish people would have wiped out everything in this holy land, even Lindatari." She walked up to Vincent and said: "But these two This thing also contains a request. It is a mission in the north and is very important for the future."

Vincent thought about the "savior" who appeared in the Queen's prophecy. "It seems that Her Majesty the Queen asked me to find that guy." Thinking of this, Vincent nodded.

"If you can agree, this will be the best thing." The Queen said: "After this battle, I am not sure how true the so-called prophecy spell is. But I still hope you can help me This is busy."

"Thank you." Vincent nodded and returned to where he was standing at the beginning. He no longer needed to use more words to express his inner gratitude, but had already made up his mind to fulfill the Queen's instructions.

After deciding these things. Assembling other items is relatively simple. After enjoying the beautiful but nostalgic songs of the elves, everyone dispersed one after another. Only the Elf Queen, Vincent and others remained in the temple.

Only then did Vincent have the opportunity to ask: "How is Yilinrui? Has she returned to Heather safely?"

"Don't worry, my daughter is resting now." The Queen said: "You will see her again in the near future. Now, let us go get the stone first."

Kubert was not very interested in mage things, but out of politeness, he still followed Vincent. However, his eyes stayed more on the little angel Soka. If Shelley hadn't been watching the Greafury priest with caution , Kubert might have started preaching the benefits of the "Saint of Light" to Sokka again.

The scroll of that chapter was placed next to the time and space beacon. When the queen chanted a spell and a new passage appeared in the center of the withered tree, Vincent understood why he still couldn't find its whereabouts after using various spells.

"It's inside." The Elf Queen said: "Only one person can go in there, and I will keep the passage open outside. Now, go and get it."

　　Vincent nodded, holding the mighty staff and slowly disappeared into the spiral staircase. Sokka opened his head curiously and looked hard into the passage.

Vincent soon reached the bottom of the passage, but was stunned by the sight here. If we were to use three words to accurately describe the situation here, it would be "zoo". Inside the holy mountain is actually a vast cave, where countless creatures live, and most of them are rare species that are difficult to see on the ground.

Whether it is a giant mountain bear or an elf dancing among the petals, whether it is a chimera flying in the air or a dragon turtle resting in the water, all the creatures here seem to completely violate the laws of nature. They do not attack each other, but Stay in this space harmoniously.

Vincent's arrival alarmed the animals here, and they gathered around to look at the guest curiously, seeming to guess which species he belonged to. A few bolder unicorns gathered around and sniffed the mage's scent.

Vincent would not dare to caress such a beautiful horse with sharp horns casually. He was not a "beautiful virgin", and he might be kicked by such a picky horse. But behind the many animals, he found the holy stone he was looking for.

So he jumped over the growing number of creatures in front of him and flew straight towards the stone. Several magic barriers blocked his progress, but under the shock of the original power of magic, the mage still successfully stood next to the scroll of Chapter 3. But Vincent did not take the stone directly. He discovered that it was this third scroll that provided the power of life to the entire space. Centered around Linda Tasso, there is an extraordinary abundance of plants, animals, light, air and water. If taken away rashly , the place may quickly lose its vitality and vitality.

"Why would the Elf Queen leave this problem in my hands?" Vincent said to himself: "Does she have a way to deal with it or is she ready to accept a huge loss?"

The mage looked around. Just as he would not destroy every plant or tree in the elven resort of Heather, he was also unwilling to destroy the harmony here. So he sat down and began to study the principle of how this sacred stone provided power to the surroundings. He hoped to find a way to replace it, otherwise, he would have to give up and take the scroll.

As time passed, the stone gradually left the center of the magic circle, attracted by Vincent's magical power. Vincent looked at this phenomenon in surprise. I wonder if this scroll really has the vitality of life like its contents. However, the occurrence of this situation indicates that Vincent has to take away the scroll.

"Perhaps we can use the power of magic to maintain the operation of this place." Vincent thought for a while, condensed a silver ball of light on his left hand, and then gradually approached the center of the formation where the magic stone was originally placed, and then carefully felt the surrounding energy fluctuations.

The plants suddenly started growing like crazy and rapidly. The animals also felt the unusual power and made loud roars.

"It's too strong, it's too strong." Vincent quickly reduced the size of the magic light ball, which also slowed down the speed of the magic source's energy transfer here. Finally, when the surrounding sounds completely calmed down, Vincent could hold the stone and leave the cave with peace of mind.

There was a violent vibration on the spiral staircase, and a lot of soil and wood chips fell from above. Vincent looked at the top of the stairs in confusion, and the original light suddenly disappeared.

"You're not going to lock me here..." Vincent said with a smile, and then ran up quickly. Where the original exit was, it was covered by a huge animal body. The mage touched it carefully, feeling the burning scales on his hands.

"What is this?"
