Chapter 1001 The Burning Forest
In the quiet forest, the Sisters of Thorns, who turned into gray remains, entered silence. The eternal life disappeared with the beginning of Ariel's madness, as if the order of the jungle was disrupted.
The maids, who instinctively entered the trees to wait for the next reincarnation, were willing to sacrifice their lives to relieve the Queen's pain.
Even if the effect is minimal...
The Twilight sisters stared at Queen Ariel covering her face and crying under the Oak of Ages. The sound of low sobbing echoed through the entire forest. Life in every corner of Athel Loren was affected by this strong emotion.
For a moment, even the cold-hearted Arohan could not help but be moved, and he lowered his eyebrows and fell into sorrow with the queen.
A cursed person put her feet on the ground and walked slowly towards the Oak of Ages with awe. As the incarnation of Ariel's will, she only dared to walk with her head lowered and staring at the ground, fearing that if she just glanced at the sad person, she would also... You will be caught in a package of endless emotions.
The Cursed One walked up to Sister Twilight and informed the chief maid Ariel of the latest situation in a voice as thin as rain.
"Alaros brought the Eternal Queen Alarielle to Athel Loren. He should have found a way to purify Queen Ariel's dark soul."
Neralis was overjoyed when she heard this. She was one of the few Asrai who believed that Asul could purify the Queen's dark soul. Even if Imric and Malekith were entangled in the dispute over the Phoenix King's legitimacy, the Eternal Queen would definitely Will lend a helping hand.
But the curser's next words made Sister Twilight frown.
"Dracnir, the prince of Caledor, is also among the people accompanying him."
There are many rumors about Drachnir. Some people say that he is kind to the people and cares more about the functioning of society than the military. Others think that this is just a disguise for Prince Caledor. In essence, he is an absolute only man like his father. Victory theorists pretend to care about people's livelihood just to win people's hearts and stabilize their rule.
There are many rumors and they are so vague that it is difficult to judge whether they are true or false. However, the only thing that can be confirmed is that Draknir once completely defeated the Phoenix Guard in the Lilith Temple, and his strength will never be inferior to that of his father.
Judging from the destructive power, Prince Caledor who studied under Berannar may be even better.
"In what name did he enter Athel Loren?" This is the focus of Alahan. Athel Loren welcomes the visit of the Eternal Queen, but the arrival of a Caledor prince with an unknown attitude will definitely not be with good intentions.
The hidden conflict between Aslay and Caledor has never stopped in the Gray Mountains. The two sides have gone from being in contact with each other for thousands of years to now gradually deepening hatred.
The Cursed One shook his head to express that he was unclear, "You need to ask Araloth about this."
After the Twilight sisters expressed their understanding, they signaled the Cursed One to retreat for a while, and they needed to discuss how to deal with Drachnir for a while.
Alahan has no trust in Asur, especially the two Tai brothers. The treacherous Teclis stole the power of the Oak of Time to contaminate Queen Ariel's mind, and his brother Tyrion was directly responsible for the eternal destruction of the king. , now here comes Drachnir, who is so careless that Tzeentch will tell the truth.
"Expell him."
Neralis shook her head and sighed, explaining a fact.
"How to expel him? If he enters Athel Loren as Prince Caledor, we can reject him in the name of the Queen, but as a guard of the Eternal Queen, it is not a good thing to be at odds with Avalon."
"Then let the forest dragon attract his attention. Caledor's madman will only be attracted by the dragon."
"With the Dragon Horn, do you think Prince Caledor will care about the few forest dragons in Athel Loren."
No matter how fearful they are of Drachnir, in the end the Twilight Sisters still have nothing to do with this thorn. Fighting is definitely not allowed. Fighting will give Imrik an excuse to declare war. Aslay's attack will be an eternal Prince Caledor escorted by the Queen.
But it seems that he cannot be allowed to have direct contact with Queen Ariel. With Teclis's past experience, the Twilight sisters are extremely suspicious of any Asur mage. These cousins who play with words and magic are Biduru. Qi is even more hateful.
After pondering for a long time, Neralise glanced at Ariel, who was hiding his face and crying, unable to extricate himself from the sadness, and was unaware of the external environment, and finally made a decision.
"What situation could be worse than today? Aslay's situation is not much better than that of Asul and Druzi."
…………
The team of the Eternal Queen, operating deep in the forests of Athel Loren, were deeply aware of the dangerous environment of this primitive zone.
A tree spirit with only a rough purple shell, waving roots as sharp as a knife blade, and letting out unconscious whining and hissing sounds from its mouth, rushed out of the dark corner of the forest.
Giant wolves, spiders, bats... a large group of bloodthirsty beasts succumbed to the evil will and couldn't wait to tear into pieces the outsiders who broke into the forest.
After Araloth drained tens of thousands of Asrai soldiers, Athel Lorenne's Asrai's situation became increasingly embarrassing, and he almost lost control of his living area.
A long sword shining with azure light pierced the head of the leading tree spirit. The jungle spirit, which was extremely resistant to the creation of civilization, seemed to have turned its solid bark into tissue paper.
With a tearing sound, large pieces of sawdust fell from the tree spirit's head, and the long sword that gathered the power of the eight winds effortlessly cut the ancient tree man's maid in half.
After getting rid of the leading clown, Dracnir looked a little disappointed. Not only was he too weak, but killing the forest spirit gave him almost no pleasure in fighting.
I wonder which soldier would be interested in chopping wood?
The beast didn't care what Prince Caledor thought. A giant wolf with shoulders taller than an ordinary man swooped over. The fangs of its bloody mouth were filled with a foul smell, and sticky saliva dripped from its teeth.
The shield engraved with the exquisite fire dragon logo was thrown out like thunder. Under the unreasonable power of Drachnir, the dragon's head and spine were reduced to pieces when it hit the steel.
And a sound of dragon roar also faintly sounded from the shield. This artifact given by the ancestor dragon tamer is horrifyingly powerful. In addition to providing the user with unparalleled protection, it can also release the internal energy in the form of a fierce blow to eject a huge amount of energy. Dragon breath.
If other mages get the shield, they can at most intensify the flames of the dragon's breath a little, but who is Drachnir? The orthodox son of Caledor, he is extremely familiar with the elven runes used by the Anvil of Vaal.
A breath that seemed like a real dragon appeared from Draconir's hand, and purple flames with strong magical wind covered the forest in front. In the blink of an eye, the charging beast was shattered into pitch-black charcoal.
The tree spirits with relatively tenacious vitality become more ferocious and terrifying after being covered by the flames. Like the endless burning tree in hell, they turn into evil ghosts and express their resentment to the world.
Not once?
Seeing that there were still dryads able to move, Draknir didn't think much. The moment Alaros raised his hand to stop him, he sent pure Aksha wind towards the shield. (End of chapter)
