finally.
They stopped in front of a green and gold gate.
This gate is five meters high, and the whole body is made of green material full of marble texture. Many strange runes are engraved on the surface, emitting golden light flickeringly.
There is nothing on the door except runes, and there is no opening and closing door gap in the middle. This thing is not so much a door, it is more vivid to say that it is a wall.
"laugh!"
Alwin cut open the palm of his right hand, and pressed his blood-soaked right hand on the surface of the green-gold gate.
"Om-"
A few seconds later, the golden runes on the wall began to erupt, and the golden light gradually intensified, even reaching the point of dazzling.
Under Li Guanqi's curious eyes, the golden runes began to swim like flowing water, gradually converging on the right hand of Erwin, and then disordered and reorganized to form a somewhat abstract forest symbol.
He recognized the imprint of the symbol.
There is a similar imprint on the base of the statue of the elf god, and in Yamen's memory, this imprint is similar to the ethnic symbol of the tulip elves, which can be roughly compared to the national flag pattern of the human kingdom.
"boom!"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the golden light erupted again.
But after the eruption, the burst of golden light also quickly disappeared, and it ceased to exist in a blink of an eye.
The original green and gold gate also disappeared, and what appeared in front of Li Guanqi and Erwin was a long staircase, which seemed to lead to the endless underground.
"This way please, save the world... Cough, Mr. Li."
Alwin looked at Li Guanqi, still habitually wanting to call the savior, but soon realized and changed his words.
After all, he took the lead and walked towards the ground.
Li Guanqi followed behind, walking unhurriedly.
Along the way, he has been thinking about whether he wants to simulate, but in the end he gave up the idea. The number of simulations is only 4.5 times. It's not dangerous either.
"Ok?"
The underground stairs are actually not that long, and after a short walk, Li Guanqi saw the end of the stairs.
It was a room made of white bricks, with a wooden pier in the center, and on top of the wooden pier, there was a delicate green box.
"This is the prophecy left by the former high priest."
Looking at this scene, Alwin's emerald green pupils flashed some memory, and he walked forward slowly, and said softly as he walked: "The high priest of our elves will make a routine prophecy at the beginning of each year. , used to calculate the good and bad luck of our elves in the next year.
At the beginning of this year, the former high priest predicted that our elves would soon usher in a catastrophe.
At that time, I was just a small assistant next to the high priest. I was very panicked and scared, but when I looked at the high priest... there was only a faint smile on his face.
I was puzzled and asked the high priest if he was not afraid?
He said that fear and fear are meaningless emotions. In the face of danger, the only thing we have to do is to do our best and try our best to do what we can and do what we need to do well. Then bravely face the danger.
I will never be able to say this sentence.
I am not qualified to be a high priest at all, but we have too many dead elves, so I had to take over the priest's scepter.
I never considered myself a good high priest.
From the beginning to the end, I felt that there was only one task for me, and that was..."
Speaking of which, Alwin had already walked outside the white room, then looked into Li Guanqi's eyes, and said seriously: "Waiting for your arrival, and handing over the things that the high priest left for you, into your hands."
"Is that the green box?"
Li Guanqi turned his head slightly, looked at the wooden pier in the center of the room, and looked at the green wooden box placed on it.
"Exactly."
Erwin nodded slightly, and then walked towards the wooden pier, with deep hatred in his green eyes, "Half a year ago, on the night when the night demon attacked the holy city, when the temple was about to be breached, everyone The priest called me to him.
He gave me the scepter of priesthood, and let me take over the priesthood.
Then, he handed the green wooden box to me, and then looked into my eyes and told me that the prophecy he got at the beginning of the year, apart from the imminent extinction of the elves, there is still a glimmer of life.
He said that the next male human who comes to the elf forest with a blessing wreath will be our savior, who will lead us tulip elves out of hell and regain their lives.
And what I have to do is to keep this green wooden box until it is handed over to the Savior.
He also said that only I can protect this wooden box, and only I can lead some elves to escape and live until the moment when the savior comes.
I had no idea at the time why the High Priest said that.
Because I simply don't know what I should do.
However, the High Priest is always right.
That night... I witnessed countless compatriots being eaten alive by night demons, and I was weak and could only cry helplessly.
Then, in a rush of grief and hatred, I awoke suddenly.
In addition to the innate spells, the magicians of the elves will awaken an additional elf talent. Although the timing of awakening is not fixed, most of them will complete the awakening of their talent before they are 100 years old.
But I don't.
From childhood to adulthood, I have lived for more than 500 years, and I have not been able to awaken the elf talent. At that moment, after countless compatriots were eaten, I finally awakened my own elf talent - fixed-point shuttle.
As a child I kept having a dream of a dark lonely space with no living things, no life, no sound.
It wasn't until the elf talent awakened that I realized that it was not a dream, that space really existed, and my elf talent was to establish a connection with that space and have the ability to teleport back and forth.
Then……"
Speaking of which, Erwin took a deep breath, holding the edge of the wooden pier with his right hand, his face was full of guilt and self-blame.
"Then, you teleported all the living elves in the holy city to this space to hide."
Li Guanqi looked at him, and finished the unfinished sentence for the elf high priest, "But you think it's too late to awaken your elf talent, and you didn't complete the awakening until the high priest died and most of the elves died. .
You think, if you can wake up earlier, then you can save more people, so you feel guilty and blame yourself...Erwin. "
As he said that, Li Guanqi patted him on the shoulder, and said seriously: "As you said, the former High Priest was always right, so since he gave you the priest's scepter and the position of High Priest, it means that this is the case. his decision.
And he was always right, and this time was no exception.
You are not some unqualified high priest, on the contrary, you are very good.
It was you, you saved the rest of the elves. Without you, what I saw today would not be you elves, but a group of night devils.
So what you have done is good enough, and you have done all the things you can do. If you blame yourself, it will only increase your troubles. "
"..."
Hearing Li Guanqi's words, Erwin did not change his mood, and was still full of guilt.
Li Guanqi didn't say anything after seeing this.
Also, if a few words can make him change, then this elf wouldn't have been guilty for so long... Even though he did such a great thing to save the remaining clansmen, he still blamed himself.
Li Guanqi no longer comforted Erwin, not to mention his own heart was a little heavy at this time.
Therefore, the reason why Elwin was able to open the cracks in space without being noticed by the Night King was not because he possessed any special method, but because his elven talent was for such a function.
And the reason why the elves did not leave the forest of elves was revealed.
Elwin's elf talent is just to allow people to go back and forth between this space and the elf forest, and they can't get out at all, otherwise they would have run away long ago.
In other words, Erwin couldn't help him leave the forest of elves at all...
"Blink, Pluto."
Although it has been guessed, Li Guanqi still asked in his mind: "How is the space in this place? Can you leave?"
"no."
Shunkong sighed, "This place is not a completely independent small space, but attached to the elf forest space, the quiet space confinement ability also blocks this space, and I can't tear open the space crack.
As for why Erwin was able to teleport back and forth, it all depended on his own innate ability.
But his talent is to bind and connect this space with the forest of elves. He can only go back and forth between these two places at most, and he cannot open a transmission channel to the Tulip Empire from here. "
"I can tear the space crack from here."
Pluto said lazily, with a hint of self-mockery, "But after I tore it apart, it was still the same, and the night elf king could still detect it, and then directly chased it here, taking the only hiding place of the elves Lock the coordinates of the space, and take them away, and then you, the savior, will become a spy leading the way for the night elves."
"..."
Li Guanqi was speechless for a moment.
Then, he shook his head slightly, and set his eyes on the green wooden box on the wooden pier.
"So, the former high priest gave you this wooden box just to let you hand it over to me."
Li Guanqi glanced at Alwin next to him, and asked curiously, "Have you seen what's inside?"
"No."
Alwin looked at him and said seriously: "Actually, I can't open it at all, it's extremely hard, I don't have the power to open it forcibly, and it can also isolate all perspective means, at least I can't peep inside, I I tried countless methods, but I couldn't open it."
"Then how do we open it?"
Li Guanqi was taken aback.
"You are the son of prophecy, you must have a way."
Erwin smiled.
"..."
However, Li Guanqi couldn't help laughing.
He has a way?
Why doesn't he even know that he has a way?
"let me try."
Li Guanqi had a weird expression on his face, and with an attitude of trying, he reached for the green wooden box.
"Om-"
However, he didn't do anything at all, just the moment his fingertips touched the green wooden box, the green wooden box erupted with a strong purple light, and it changed from a blue-green wooden box to a purple-black whole body in an instant. wooden box.
Not only that, when the purple light gradually dissipated, the discolored wooden box also made a "click", and a crack appeared on the lid, which was obviously opened.
"Ok?"
Seeing this scene, Li Guanqi and Erwin were slightly taken aback.
But the expression on Erwin's face quickly turned into joy and excitement, "Sure enough! You are the son of prophecy! I have exhausted countless ways to open the wooden box, but you just touch it and it will open automatically!"
"Forehead……"
Li Guanqi didn't express any opinion on this, but just stretched out his hand, and completely opened the lid of the box that was ajar.
"A bottle of medicine, a letter?"
Looking at the only two items in the purple wooden box, Li Guanqi couldn't help being curious.
There are only two items in the box.
A vial filled with a purple liquid.
A folded white letter.
"It should be left to you by the former high priest, please take a look!"
Erwin said to Li Guanqi impatiently.
"it is good."
Li Guanqi nodded, picked up the folded white letter, and spread it out.
"Um?!"
However, after seeing the contents of this letter, Li Guanqi and Ai Erwen were all stunned and stunned on the spot.
This letter does not pay attention to the format of writing the letter, it just writes things directly in Western characters.
Only two short lines.
But it was these two lines of words that made their mood sink to the bottom.
[Dear savior, hello, I am the last high priest of the elves, Anderson Hales Edfins Tulip. 】
