Chapter 1351: Chapter 456: Two Pillars of Light_3

“That’s right, Crown Lothar.” Reginald also revealed a slight smile.

As the airship slowly landed in the dense forest, suddenly, many trees around began to tremble violently. Immediately afterward, huge tree roots extended like human legs and stepped out of the ground, while vague human faces emerged on the trunks.

If Anna were present, she would immediately recognize this as a group of ironwood guardians.

Even more noteworthy was a tall, thin male elf in a luxurious robe who appeared among the ironwood guardians.

He walked toward the fallen airship, eyes fixed on Lothar and Reginald, and said in the common tongue:

“Humans, this is the elf territory, according to the ancient pact, you cannot enter without our permission!”

Reginald glanced at the male elf, frowning slightly, showing a hint of confusion.

However, Lothar responded loudly: “Sir, in fact, we did not wish to come, but we received an ambassador’s call for help, stating that you were attacked by the cultists, hence the empire dispatched us as reinforcements.”

“Human, thank you for your goodwill, but concerning the cultists, we will handle it ourselves.”

The words instantly made Luther and a group of legendary individuals displeased—having traveled far to help, yet receiving no appreciation?

“Such arrogant elves!”

“What a thing!”

“If not for the empire’s order, acting like anyone wishes to come.”

….

Lothar also frowned immediately. In such a case of rejection by the host, should they proceed further, a direct conflict would inevitably occur…

However, Reginald, standing aside, seemed to understand something, suddenly smiled at the elf, and said: “Actually, you cannot represent the elves, can you? Mother Tree Sect believer!”

“What!” Everyone was startled, looking at the elf.

The high-grade elf stiffened his expression and said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

“Hehe, from the attack you just launched, I sensed a trace of the unique essence of the Void Mother Tree. Even your body bears some well-concealed void mother tree aura.”

“If you are not a follower of the mother tree, then kindly explain how you can use those leaves from the Void Mother Tree?”

“Or perhaps, you dare curse the Void Mother Tree Ganisir on the spot….”

“You…. though you are epic-grade strong, respect for the great mother tree should be maintained!” The male elf, hearing Reginald blatantly call the name of the Void Mother Tree, replied angrily.

His rebuttal amounted to a direct admission of being a follower of the Void Mother Tree, causing an uproar among the many legendary figures present!

Clearly, the high-grade elf, unbeknownst to others, had long since become a member of the Mother Tree Sect.

“Damn, it was this guy who shot down the airship!”

“….”

Suddenly, at this moment, all the empire personnel, including Lothar and Reginald, looked up at the sky before them, as did the high-grade elf, turning to gaze at the sky behind him.

A thick green pillar of light shot up from the center of Ferdinand Forest not so far away!

“Not good! This is the second one!” Reginald said with a stern face.

“Ha, even if you rush there now, it would be too late! The great Void Mother Tree will descend upon this world!” The high-grade elf then turned around to face the people, his eyes gradually turning black, glinting with pride and madness.

Seeing such a crazed gaze on an elf who reveres nature and values balance is truly a stark contrast!

Thus, all the legendary empire figures, including Luther, watched the elf, seemingly wanting to understand ‘how exactly the alleged Void Mother Tree seduces elves’.

“Humans, farewell, I have more important matters to attend to, so I advise you to leave Ferdinand Forest before you find yourselves unable to escape soon.”

…

Meanwhile.

At Post Seven, elf elders Alderan, Delana, Anna, and other pure-blood elves, all suddenly turned pale, showing their fear as they quickly gathered by the post windows, looking towards the center of Ferdinand Forest.

Another easily visible green pillar of light shot up!

“Impossible! How could the second Crystal Tower be destroyed so quickly!” Alderan exclaimed in fright, hardly believing it!

“Grandpa Alderan, does this mean if another green pillar appears…. Ferdinand City will be completely….” Anna exclaimed, covering her mouth.

Because Alderan had previously explained, once the third Crystal Tower was destroyed, the Ancient Witch Array ‘Crystal Barrier’ would be completely shattered.

“Correct!” Alderan nodded heavily.

But in the next second, something even more terrifying for the pure-blood elves occurred!

With the appearance of the green pillar of light, the entire Ferdinand Forest began to reverberate with energy’s aftermath and a certain murmur….

Or whispers….

Instantly, all the pure-blood elves, including Anna the half-elf, felt a motherly call rising from within.

As if a voice continuously whispered in their ears: ‘Children…. danger…. help…. help me….’

Simultaneously, all pure-blood elves also felt a fear, terror, and tremor emanating from deep within their psyche, from the depths of their bloodline!

“This is… it’s the call from Mother Tree Andaril!” Delana exclaimed, shocked.

“An extinction crisis is looming!”

She also heard the rescue and call from the mother tree for the first time!

Yet instinctually, she understood the meaning conveyed by the mother tree.

Then, an unknown pure-blood elf woman stepped forward from the group, her beautiful face was full of resolve and determination, saying to Alderan and Delana:

“No way, we must return to help Mother Tree Andaril; though we lack power, we can pray, pray for Mother Tree Andaril!”

One by one, the pure-blood elves stood up next, walking behind the unnamed woman.

Elders, children, even elves with bandages not yet recovered from injuries…

But all elves shared a determined gaze!
