Chapter 145 Elf Magic
Chapter 145 Elf Magic
On the main road of the Elf Kingdom, two white horses galloped towards the Elf capital. Agreed sat behind Heya, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, swaying with the horses' running. Agreed's strength gave him a terrifying ability to balance, so he didn't need to hold Heya's waist to keep her balanced, as that might embarrass her.
Actually, Agreed originally wanted to sit behind the elven messenger, but Hea insisted that Agreed ride with her on the same horse. Agreed could not refuse and had to sit behind Hea. Along the way, Agreed and Hea chatted casually, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.
Within half a month, the three arrived at the royal city. They then discreetly entered the elven palace through a secret passage used by the elves. Agreed, looking at the path that was completely different from the one he had taken before, couldn't help but ask the messenger, "This is completely different from the path I took before, and it seems much longer. Why are we taking this path?"
The messenger quickly replied, "My king specifically instructed that your current racial identity is special, and if the elves see you, it might cause panic. Therefore, we are to take this secret passage to minimize the impact."
Agreed readily agreed, "The Elf King has truly gone to great lengths." But inwardly, Agreed wondered, 'How did he obtain such precise and comprehensive information? And I have a feeling this journey isn't as simple as it seems…'
A quarter of an hour later, Argreed and Hea arrived at a side hall of the Elven King's palace, led by the messenger. The Elven King was sitting there, having prepared refreshments and drinks for his guests.
Upon meeting the Elf King, the Elf messenger immediately bowed and then withdrew.
After the messenger left, the Elf King waved and invited, "Please sit down, my distinguished guest who has come from afar. Heya, you sit down too. It is obvious that my guest is not in good health and cannot enjoy the tea I have prepared, but you can enjoy it for him."
Agreed led Heya over, bowing politely and saying, "It's been a long time, Your Majesty the Elf King."
The Elf King gestured for him to sit down and replied, "It's been a long time, my friend Agreed. It's a pleasure to see that you're still as...mature and composed as ever."
Agreed presented the invitation to the Elf King with both hands and said, "My country is about to be established, and I have come here mainly to extend an invitation to you. I hope that the Elf Kingdom will do me the honor of visiting."
The Elf King accepted the invitation with a calm expression, as if he already knew about it. However, he still pretended to be surprised and congratulated the king, saying, "I didn't expect you to have become the ruler of a country. Congratulations! Please rest assured that my clan will definitely attend your founding ceremony to express the sincerity of the Elf race. There's not much to offer you, but if you have nothing else to do, you can stay here for a couple of days so that we can express our gratitude."
Agreed quickly waved his hand in refusal, saying, "I won't bother you any longer. After all, my identity is indeed too sensitive for elves. I'll take my leave now." As he spoke, Agreed stood up to leave, but at that moment, from his soul's perspective, he could clearly see a relieved expression on the Elf King's face. Just as Agreed was puzzled, a faint but still discernible message was transmitted into his mind, causing him to freeze in place.
The message that came through was just two words: "Help me." Someone was calling on Agreed for help!
Agreed quickly grasped the gist of the matter, and then suddenly turned to the Elf King and asked, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen Senior Xiscana for quite some time. Your Majesty, could you please introduce me to him?"
A hint of panic flashed in the Elf King's eyes, but he calmly explained, "Ah, Lord Siscana has recently entered the hibernation period of the tree spirits. Unfortunately, I think we should not disturb his hibernation."
Agreed looked in that direction and said, "But I just received a message from Ciscana, and it seems... he's not doing well."
The Elf King's hands and feet clenched involuntarily with nervousness, then he continued to laugh and change the subject, saying, "How could that be? You must have misheard. It's possible that he was talking in his sleep."
Agreed insisted, "I'd better go check it out. If something happens to Senior Xiscana, it'll be convenient for me to help, right?" With that, Agreed headed towards the ancient forest where Xiscana was.
Upon seeing this, the Elf King tore off all pretense, his expression turning ferocious and ruthless. He stood up and roared, "I didn't want to be your enemy, but since you're being so aggressive, don't blame me!"
As the terrifying pressure arose from all around, several ancient tree spirits suddenly appeared in the Elf Palace and rushed towards Agred. At the same time, a spatial rift involuntarily opened in Agred's chest. If Agred had not already reached the peak of the Divine Bone Realm, which provided divine power to protect his body, he would have been torn apart by this spatial rift.
Argreed instantly cast the tenth-tier spell Eternal Protection to block the dazzling magical attacks from all directions. Observing the surrounding situation, Argreed calmly judged, "It seems there has been a coup within the elves. Such a fast casting speed and such impressive magical power, the magic system created by the elves is indeed something special. No wonder Xiscana was defeated. This has indeed given you the confidence to fight against demigods. However... it is far from enough to deal with me!"
With a shout from Agred, more than twenty tenth-tier spells were instantly unleashed, and the surrounding tree spirits and elven warlocks were instantly reduced to ashes. At the same time, Agred's subsequent tenth-tier light magic, 'Holy Light Purification,' shattered everyone's souls into pieces, ensuring that they died completely and utterly.
In the blink of an eye, only Agreed, Heya, and the Elf King remained on the field. The Elf King cried out in fear, "Why?! Why did you have to meddle in my business!"
Four tiny ice spikes condensed around Agred and flew out, piercing the Elf King's limbs. Agred was very careful; the ice spikes only sealed his acupoints and blood vessels, rendering him unable to move for a short time.
Then, as Agreed walked towards the Elf King, he asked, "Now can you explain to me what all this is all about? Or do you want me to personally search the soul and find out the truth myself?"
The Elf King chuckled and said, "Do you really think elven magic is cast through chanting and singing? You greatly underestimate them!"
In the blink of an eye, a spatial portal appeared beneath Agred's feet, causing him to plummet into the astral plane (outer space). Immediately afterward, the light-element pseudo-super-tier magic 'Radiant Judgment' was unleashed by the unknown beings. Agred was immediately attacked by high-energy light particles scattered throughout the universe. The massive energy particles bombarded Agred relentlessly, attempting to destroy him completely.
