Soul of Burning Steel

Star Pendant 837, February 27, Lake of Eternity, Sequoia Mother Tree Island.

Hill Lange sat down on his knees in the center of the island, in a simple wooden sacrificial hall, closed his eyes and meditated.

This is the island where the mother tree of the Lange tribe is located, and this simple sacrificial hall is placed with portraits of the patriarchs of the Lange tribe. Their remains after death have been assimilated with the mother tree, leaving only the portraits to show future generations. The black-haired elf sat in the center of the wooden hall calmly, bearing the gaze of the portraits of ancestors of the past, and beside him, there was a gray-haired elf who seemed extremely old because of an overdraft of his life, and a lost elf. The elf with his right hand and left calf, but with a fairly young appearance, also sat on his knees and said nothing.

The appearances of the three elves are very similar. As long as anyone sees them, they will never doubt their kinship. The Hill in the middle is the youngest and has the most healthy limbs. It can be seen that the tops of the three have a light blue color. The light floated. One end of the light was connected with the three elves, and the other end extended to the back of the altar, linked to the huge redwood in the center of the island.

"what……"

After the long meditation ended, Hill slowly opened his eyes, and swift cyan flashes flashed from the depths of his purple pupils. After a long sigh, the young elf with a very young face showed a dazed expression: "It turns out. So, this is the heritage of our tribe..."

"Yes it is."

At the side of the black-haired elf, the old white-haired elf seemed to want to stand up, but he almost didn't fall due to his inflexible hands and feet. Hill quickly got up to help, but was gently pushed away by the old man. After a cough, the elderly elf looked at his little son with a rather complicated expression. He originally wanted to speak with great momentum, but in the end there was only a long sigh: "The position of the patriarch has been handed over to you, Hill. Lan Ge, you are the patriarch of this generation of Lan Ge tribe."

"Be cautious, brother."

On the other side of Hill, the mutilated elf slowly got up, and a wooden sprout grew from the wound of this stump, forming a wooden limb to support the action. Hill’s brother took a deep breath. , And then said with a chuckle: "From then on, you have taken on the heavy responsibility."

"I still don't understand."

In the place where the most important mother tree of life of the tribe is located, in the center of the sacrificial hall with the portraits of the patriarchs of the past, Hill slowly shook his head, and the young elf muttered in a puzzled tone: "That’s it for my father. At this point, even the bud of the tree of life can only delay death and cannot regain strength, but brother, your mutilated limbs can't be cured. Why do I have to come back and inherit the family?"

It's not that Hill is unwilling to take his responsibilities, he just can't understand, so he wants to know the answer.

"Because it is not my body that is damaged, it is my heart."

Facing his brother’s question, the elder elf replied in a calm tone. He raised his head and looked around at the portraits of the ancestors around him. The man said frankly: "The life and death battle with the five-color dragon, I realized my soul’s I am fragile. I lost my arm and a left foot... and the injury is not so simple on the surface. The green dragon's poison is always eroding my internal organs. If it is to be completely cured, I will have to meditate for five years."

"Even the elves, five years are precious. I can't wait for five years, nor can the Lange tribe."

This was a convincing answer. Hill could not refute, but could only accept it. He watched his father and elder brother leave the altar hall and closed the door. The young elf sighed deeply.

Although the inheritance is over, he still cannot leave this sacrificial hall, because soon he will inherit the ceremony and wedding of the patriarch. He needs to wait in this wooden house with the ancestors of the Lange tribe until the ceremony begins. until.

"Is this the **** of returning to the clan... Various rules and regulations. After becoming the clan leader, you must be responsible for coordinating the relationship between the members of the clan and communicating with other tribes. It is difficult to leave the Far South... as in the past. It is estimated that there will never be a free life again."

Kneeling on the ground again, closing his eyes, Meditation Hill heard the sound of the opening of the altar hall behind him, he heard the sound of gentle footsteps, and the sound of static electricity crackling in the air. The black-haired elf knew that it was still The footsteps of Fina, who has not fully grasped the power of the ancient dragon bloodline, as her fiancee, will wait for the ceremony to begin with him.

"Not happy, Hill?"

Slowly walked to Hill's side, Ms. Hailong knelt gently beside the black-haired elf. She put her head close to Hill and asked in a low voice. It could be seen that Fina's expression was a little uneasy. She seemed to be very worried about her race, which brought additional trouble to Hill, so she, who was originally quite strong, was full of sadness at this time.

"Hill... it's all my fault." She whispered to herself.

"It's not troublesome at all, you are not at all wrong."

Hill shook his head for Fina’s self-blame. He stretched out his left hand and held Fina’s right hand. The elf squeezed the other’s hand, and then replied with a chuckle: "Listen, as long as you are with you. beside me."

"Even if I am no longer free, I am very willing."

Star pendant 837, March 1st, Eternal Lake, Redwood City, the wind is sunny and cloudless.

The wedding of Hill Lange, the new patriarch of the Lange tribe, was held today.

The far south has abundant water resources, coupled with its geographical location near the tropics, the water vapor brought by dense forests and rivers will rise into clouds no matter what the weather is, but under the magic of the wizard, even uninhibited clouds will have to Follow the orders of magic.

Compared with the cheerful atmosphere in the city, as a wedding site, the fir castle above the giant sequoia tree looks a bit deserted, but walking in the castle, without exception, are the great nobles and big people among the elves, because At the invitation of the Nature Teacher and the Elf Queen, most of the patriarchs of the nine elven tribes came to Sequoia City. Even if they did not come for some reason, they all attached great importance to dispatching the deputies of the family, or even the patriarch of the previous generation.

In fact, as the protagonist of the wedding, Hill knows that his wedding is nothing more than an invitation from the Elf King’s Court to a large number of elven nobles to coordinate the recent contradictions caused by the inheritance of the World Tree. After all, everyone is an elves, even if the trouble is It's not good-looking, find a step down, then have a chat, and compromise with each other can solve most of the problems, it is really dissatisfied, the empress and the mentor have no choice but to take action, so that he has to be satisfied.

For this reason, the natural teacher personally endorsed his union with Fina, suppressing most of the voices in the clan who opposed the confusion of the blood of the elves.

"The bloodline defense is our elves' family rules that we have adhered to for 800 years, but to be honest, is it still meaningful if we still desperately maintain a pure elven bloodline?"

Faced with a group of questioning conservative elves and nobles, the nature teacher said in an unprecedented serious tone: "Even mice know how to adapt to changes in the environment. We elves are not as good as mice. We have to abide by the ancient history of 800 years ago. Code? In ancient times, the population of the races was not large. We elves can rely on the elite population for rapid development, but now, the magic industry is popular, and the world has come to a most important corner. What we need is not a few decades to cultivate An elite, but a large population who can manage large-scale industrial production!"

"The fertility rate of pure blood elves is well known. If they continue to be stubborn, they can only be eliminated by the times... Do you want the ancient and glorious race of elves to gradually disappear into history? It's time to change!"

The natural teacher refuted everyone and made many diehard nobles give up continuing to oppose the'bloodline improvement plan' through intermarriage, bloodline modification, and magic experiments, but she cleverly avoided an obvious problem-that is the dragon clan's. The fertility rate is not high, and the combination of Hill and Fina has nothing to do with the improvement of blood vessels, but it has worsened the situation.

But who cares about it, who really cares? Just as there are only a few people in this castle who really want to celebrate his wedding, not many people really care about the marriage partner of a person who has nothing to do with them.

Even so, there are always a few purer people.

"...Before Eros, I would like to take the ancient oath that you and the other two will live and die together, and never forsake each other."

The **** of love and decay, before the idol of'Yes and Sorrows', the contemporary elven queen uttered vows one after another in elegant old elves. This beautiful elven lady with silver hair and golden eyes and a purple jade crown blessed with a smile Hill and Fina, the “HerenvarnoIX” who inherited the name of the elves of the past generations, although they supported Hill’s wedding with a different purpose, they sincerely blessed the two of them at this time. ——The legendary powerhouse whose reputation was not obvious, and whose strength was overshadowed by the Elf Queen, quietly adjusted the physical condition of Hill and Fina, and even suppressed the restless blood of the ancient dragon in Ms. Hailong.

The soft and warm floral fragrance, with the blessing of the Elf Queen, permeates the entire auditorium. This scent that is secreted to the heart seems to be not in the material world at all, but reaches the depths of the soul, even if the body of the elves has been abandoned and transformed into a wooden body or a dragon body. The archdruid can also clearly smell this refreshing floral fragrance, and as the fragrance ripples and spreads, until it spreads beyond the Cedar Castle, covering the entire Sequoia City, you can hear the sound outside the castle. The city shook the earth slightly and cheered.

In the entire Sequoia City, all people with minor illnesses felt it. In this mysterious fragrance, the pain in their own body eased at a speed that could be clearly felt, improved, and disappeared completely-Sequoia City is one of the adventurers. City, and the adventurer who doesn't have a dark cold, rheumatism, minor illnesses and hidden illnesses? But now, under the action of this gentle supernatural power, everyone is completely cured, without any side effects.

This is a mighty power comparable to a miracle, but it is like a spring breeze and rain, and it is not sensual.

"Flap, pop, pop, pop."

Under the podium, Joshua, who was in the front row, was no one else. The first applause drove the shocked and slightly dull atmosphere of the auditorium. Following the legendary powerhouse who came from afar, he clapped loud applause. Behind him, the nervous aristocratic elves hurriedly applauded to celebrate the success of the wedding of the new generation of patriarchs of the Lange tribe. Immediately, the entire castle auditorium was filled with blessings and applause, and the band on the side just played gently and peacefully. Elf music.

The most tedious part of the ceremony is over. The next is a busy and fulfilling ceremony. With Hill and Fina retiring, there are many elves and nobles and human beings who are invited like Joshua, and the dwarf guests are at the maid’s. Leading to the banquet hall of the castle, Hotaru and Rin followed the warrior. They were attending the wedding for the first time, and they looked a little nervous in curiosity.

"How few elves are."

Through the mental terminal, the silver-haired girl said softly to her brother: "Although she has never officially attended the wedding, she has also watched it many times in Moldavia. Anytime, the number of people is several times more than here, and the process is also It's so plain and kind of boring."

"It's boring... Sister, don't you see what identity these people are..."

The black-haired boy was rather speechless about his sister’s simple thinking circuit: “You throw a stone in this group of people, and you can hit a dozen gold, seven or eight extremes, most of the actual ruler of the elves, You know, including the Elf Queen, there are three legends present at this wedding!"

"Whose family can gather three legends when they get married? Look at the straight-faced elf next to the band. He is the "historian weaver" who is responsible for recording major historical events in the elf clan. Although this wedding seems quite deserted, three A legend is present at the same time, but an anecdote enough to be recorded in the annals of history!"

Sisters and brothers of Shenji rely on the Internet to chat with each other and check the news and forums in the Northland from time to time. They are very happy to play, but Joshua, who is walking in front of the two, is in the banquet hall and is guided. When he entered the special room specially prepared for him, he did not show the sincere smile that he had blessed Hill before.

At this time, the soldier frowned slightly, and he seemed to be caught in thinking about what problem.

The luxurious and luxurious special banquet room is specially prepared for Joshua. There is nothing on the table, but the teleportation spell is solidified. As long as the warrior is a little bit, it can automatically transmit the food that meets his requirements, because the natural teacher is excluded. With the Elf Queen, no one dared-and no one could be equal to him, so Joshua could only be alone.

"At this time, Hill and Fina should be discussing with the patriarchs of the other eight tribes in the secret room about the inheritance of the World Tree with the Elf Queen and Nature Teacher."

Because when I first came to Sequoia City, I had already talked about your problem with Galanold. Joshua knew where the two legendary elves and the disappeared patriarchs went. He I also know that all the purposes of my coming to Sequoia City have been completed, and I should be able to go back now.

A few days ago, he had chatted with Hill, Fina and others several times. The warrior encouraged the elves not to panic. With his potential, it is undoubtedly a matter of becoming a powerful patriarch of a large tribe. The warrior even took action to ease Because of the exhaustion of Hill's father's life, this old elf, who had been alive for a few years, prolonged his life for less than ten years.

The fusion of the blood of Fina and the ancient dragon has been perfected with the help of the Nature Teacher and the Elf Queen. Even Joshua has little room for action. Today, the blessing of the Elf Queen fills up Fina’s last loophole. Now, Ms. Hailong can almost be called the incarnation of the Koronos Gulong in Mycroft's world. It is a perfect awakened body like the black, and can be called the future Gulong.

"The elves are on the eve of reform...not just human beings. In order to move far away, the races in this ancient world are beginning to change. I changed the world from crisis to such a point, but why is there still something wrong?"

Since a few days ago, Joshua has always felt a little easily upset recently. At first, he suspected that it was the function of divinity, but after several self-examinations, he found that divinity had nothing to do with his last suppression. When he is upset, the warrior always feels that he can faintly hear some strange sounds-he originally thought it was a micro-information stream similar to the power of steel~www.novelmtl.com~ just like the steel python Carli The wailing of Mikrov’s that Si heard was a side effect of his increasingly keen perception, but in the end he found that it wasn’t... this matter was very mysterious, and Joshua didn’t have a good explanation for it. Can be depressed temporarily.

It can never be an illusion. As a legendary powerhouse, if you can't control your senses and observation methods, you really don't deserve to be called a legend.

"I can't find the source for the time being, let's put it away... see if this situation will continue after returning to the north."

Suppressing what was wrong in her heart, Joshua ordered a few dishes. The food of the elves was slightly light, but this time it is estimated that Joshua and several other human dwarves’ tastes were taken into account, so there are also other races. The chef took the action, and the soldier felt that the unknown chef's craftsmanship was almost as good as a master. No matter what kind of ingredients and delicacies, the workmanship was exquisite to the extreme, and he liked it very much.

However, just as Joshua was halfway through the world’s top chef’s craftsmanship, he suddenly stopped eating, then frowned and turned his head, looking in a certain direction blocked by the wall-Hotaru and Rin raised their heads together for his master’s abnormal actions. Strange, and afterwards, Joshua's words surprised them even more.

"Really, today is also your wedding."
