Chapter 39 The Ivy Tree Is Singing
Chapter 39 The Ivy Tree Is Singing
The moment she saw these blood elves, the Holy Maiden froze her face, and did not show an unhappy expression because of her wrong guess.
The handsome elf in the lead seemed to see Lucini's thoughts through his mind.His expression was very cold and not very friendly.He has a pair of different eyes, one is as crimson as blood, and the other is as dark blue as the sea. Like Lucini, he has different pupils.
His sharp gaze swept across Luxini, and the saint reflexively raised a gentle smile.
"We are priests from the Radiant Temple of Etern, and we hope to be able to meet the beautiful appearance of the Elven Queen. May the goddess bless you."
When Lucini was negotiating, Bedwell promptly took out the relevant documents.Signed by His Excellency the Pope himself, accompanied by a letter from His Excellency the Pope.
"Itenna? The Temple of Light?"
The black-haired elf with different eyes didn't even glance at the document.He crossed his arms and drew out the dagger at his waist to block in front of the two, while his teammates aimed their bows and arrows at the two girls.
"Please go back, now Fei Leng Cui does not welcome outsiders to enter." His tone was not polite.
Also, the blood elves who are cursed and suffer from pain all the time, are notoriously bad-tempered among the elves, and basically only the more powerful blood elves can discipline them.And as the strongest defense force of the elves, they also have the capital to be so rude.
Lucy Ni tilted her head slightly, she blocked Bedwell's next move, and said softly: "We have no intention of harming the elves, Eterna has had good relations with the elves for generations, and we have no intention of breaking it. We brought a greeting card , I just want to see the Elf Queen."
"Or, are you afraid of letting us in because...something happened in the elf forest?"
"What do you know?"
The expression of the elf with different pupils changed, becoming extremely ugly.The elves around him also drew their bows one after another, as if they were going to kill them on the spot if they didn't agree with each other.
"Lu only knows that maybe we can help you." Lucini didn't answer directly.
"...Come with me." The elf with different pupils turned around, "You can bring the horses in too. The others continue to patrol."
"Yes." "Good Captain!"

The dwellings of elves are built on trees, not by felling and building, but tall trees are spontaneously covered with branches and leaves.Even the furniture inside was born after the elves communicated with the plants through power.
It is consistent with the information that Lucini has read.Deep in the forest, the tree houses are perfectly integrated with the trees.The elves climbed up and down using vines hanging from the branches, and these vines also made many tricks.
If you don't want to climb, there is a huge rattan basket beside the rattan, which is enough for two elves to be lifted up automatically.That's how Lucini got into the treehouse.
The interior of the house is very simple but very beautiful, the aroma of the trees is refreshing, and slowly because of the gorgeous and warm sunshine, I feel too comfortable and want to sleep.
Sitting face to face with Bedwell, there are two cups of steaming tea on the small wooden table in the middle.Lucini held up the teacup, looking very leisurely.
Bedwell, who was sitting opposite her, hesitated to speak, and did not take a sip of the tea in front of her.
The blood elf who stopped them seemed to be the captain of the forest patrol, and his name was Renato.This was learned when Lucini was persistently trying to extract some useful information.
The elf's impatient and harsh attitude did not defeat Lucini, and the saint even asked her lady knight to be patient with the black-haired elf.
However, he didn't seem to be very popular with the elves. He led Lucini two horses along the way, and many elves shunned him.
Although he didn't like ordinary elves, Renato's power didn't seem small at all.The two of them, Lucini, were waiting for the black-haired elf to report the elf queen's return in the tree house for distinguished guests.
"My lord, that blood elf named Renato is very strong."
Finally, in order to break the silence and at the same time dispel her curiosity about the "betting result", Miss Knight choked out a topic.
"I thought his ability was normal for blood elves, but in fact, other elves along the way—including a few blood elves who looked very strong couldn't compare to him."
Not only that, the traces of the curse suffered by the blood elves are generally on specific body parts, such as the back, waist, or arms, etc., but in any case, they will be in places that can be covered with clothes, and they should never be visible at a glance face.
"Maybe it's the ability improvement brought about by the mixed blood."
The Holy Maiden took a sip of tea comfortably, this rare drink in the temple made her feel refreshed.Anyway, no matter how strong she is, she is no better than Bei Wei, so there is nothing to worry about.
"Red and blue, I heard that the blood elf's eyes are the color of blood. Darling, let's bet what elemental elf does his other half blood come from?"
"..." Miss Knight looked at Lucini speechlessly.
The tone of the saintess was a bit vicious. After saying that, she bit her lip angrily.
Bedwell reasonably guessed that Lucy Ni's previous guess was cut off by this blood elf named Renato, which led to a wrong guess, so she gritted her teeth with hatred and planned to pick off the color of the opponent's underwear come out.
According to this betting trend, it will definitely evolve into that.
...Although she understands the anger of the Holy Maiden, she is a little upset.
The price of being disrespectful to the Holy Maiden should be to beat the other party into a big pig who no longer dares to speak to Lucini with that expression and tone, instead of exploring the other party's truth. life experience.But Lady Saint didn't let her make a move.
After a while, Bedwell, who didn't know when it started and had completely given up reminding the Holy Maiden to pay attention to her image, asked: "My Lady, why do you suddenly start to fall in love with fighting—"
"That's right, that's right, Lu lost the bet between Lu and Bei Wei. Bei Wei doesn't need to give Lu a reward, it's really cunning." Lady Saint put down the tea, crossed the table and approached Bedwell, " Well, can Lu give Bei Wei a reward?"
"My lord, I didn't bet with you." Bedwell reminded Lucini tactfully.
The Holy Maiden spoke so earnestly about rewards and rewards, which made her intuition feel a little bad.If I were to say that feeling, it would probably be "a chill down the spine".
At this time, you absolutely cannot agree to the Holy Maiden.As a result, Miss Knight's expression became more righteous and dignified, and her sitting posture became more upright and upright.
"So I don't need your reward."
Luxi Ni looked at each other aggrievedly, but Bedwell was unmoved, she said softly and sweetly in a low voice: "But Lu wants to give Bei Wei a reward~"
If Bedwell hadn't agreed, as a gentle and considerate servant, Lucini would not have forced her to come.After all, she didn't want to take any chances.
Even though she was already accustomed to Lucy Ni's acting like a baby and changing her face, under the soft and sweet offensive of the saint, the lady knight almost surrendered and said "you just want to be happy".She swallowed a mouthful of spit and collected herself: "Holy—"
"Her Majesty has summoned you, come out."
This sentence is not only disrespectful, it is already very impolite.
The door of the tree house was opened, and the black-haired elf with different pupils stood on the platform in front of the house. His expression even made the two girls wonder if they had offended him in any way.
She also had a stern face, but Luxini still felt that only Bei Wei looked cuter—no, this elf wasn't stern, but had a stinky face all the time.
This is not at all the same as the art-loving, proud but polite elves described in any books and bards!
Bedwell's words were interrupted, but at this time, even if the Holy Maiden was curious about what Miss Knight wanted to say, she could not ask any more questions, and could only continue after the matter was over.
Moreover, no matter how bad-tempered the other party is, she must be courteous enough.
Before leaving, Lucini deliberately changed back to her clergyman's attire, which made her appear to be very dignified.At this time, she lifted the corner of her skirt and saluted in a standard way: "Then I'll leave it to you."
Renato glanced at Lucini coldly, then turned and left.

The Elf Queen is an extremely beautiful beauty.
Her long golden hair is like the most brilliant sunlight, and there is a circle of green in her blue eyes. The blue and green complement each other, showing her identity as a natural elf.
After bringing the two of them to the hall where the Elf Queen was, Renato stood aside with his head bowed.The elf queen sat on the throne, which was also made of branches and leaves of trees and vines, very delicate and beautiful.
At this time, there was not a single intelligent life in the hall.If Lucini wanted Bedwell to be unfavorable to the Elf Queen, the only one who could block it was Renato present.
Are you so confident in your own strength?Or is it about Renato's confidence?The conversation they were going to have now was supposed to be a secret between the three, but the Elf Queen never let Renato go.Lucy's smile deepened.
"The saint of the Radiance Temple and this powerful knight, I already know the reason for your visit."
"However, I cannot give you what you ask for."
Lucini wasn't angry either. She smiled and said softly, "Before Lu came to see you, she seemed to sense something disturbing."
"That disturbing rancid smell, even the farthest distance can't hide it."
The elf queen was silent for a long while: "Then, holy maiden who is loved by God. Do you think you and your partner can handle this matter well like the prophets of my silver moon elf clan?"
"Lou is willing to try her best."
Lucini neither affirmed nor denied, but slowly and confidently chose the safest statement.
Even though her appearance was very calm, when she heard Lucini say that she felt something and asked if Lucini could handle it, the Elf Queen's breath was still chaotic for a moment.
These subtle changes failed to escape Lucini's perception.Don't think about it, what the Pope needs can't be asked for directly, it has to be dealt with properly.
The elf queen who received Lucini's answer did not make a promise, she just nodded: "Renato, take them to see."
The black-haired elf who was playing with the dagger in his hand bored raised his head, nodded slightly at the elf queen, and turned around: "Follow me."
Renato didn't show any respect for the Elf Queen, which was noticed by the two girls.Looking at each other thoughtfully, Lucini smiled and said, "Let's go, dear."
The author has something to say: Renato (indifferent): ...
Bedwell: (itchy hands): ...
