Chapter 3047: GoddessEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
An elder couldn’t help but say, "Elven king, I’m afraid continuing like this is unfavorable for us."
The Elven king knew this well and asked, "Elder, what do you suggest?"
"With our strength, we probably cannot hold off the mutant worms. We need to seek help from other races to completely destroy the Ouroboros insect nest."
"No!"
Immediately, some elders opposed.
Their reasons were nothing but clichés.
The elves had always been reclusive and proud, offending many other races. The reason they had remained peaceful in this chaotic era was not only their own strength but mostly because they had hidden the world.
If they revealed their existence to the world, many troubles could be foreseen in the future.
"Enough debate. Send out the call for help first."
The Elven king was clear-minded.
If they didn’t ask for help now, the entire Elven race would soon be finished.
The future could be dealt with later.
At least surviving now meant there was a future.
"Also, contact Doris immediately and quickly clarify the information on the mural. Whether the premonition is true or not, finding the Goddess and trying is better than doing nothing."
"Father king, this matter still needs your leadership," said the third prince Nio, seeing his chance, immediately reporting, "I will personally lead people there! I will definitely help you find the Goddess."
The Elven king glanced at his son and nodded. "Good, you have my full trust."
"Yes! I will not disappoint you, Father King!"
...
An hour later, Flying Squirrel Clan captain Kapa and two guards were brought directly from a grotto by the Water Star Clan before the third prince.
"I am Nio, third prince of the elves."
Nio had little experience in missions, but was deeply concerned about the Tree of Life’s safety. He stared intently at Kapa with a fierce expression and demanded, "Answer my questions one by one. If you dare to lie even a little, I will make your life worse than death!"
Kapa was frightened and kowtowed repeatedly, "I will cooperate fully, Your Highness. Ask whatever you want, and I will answer honestly."𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Who is the Goddess?"
"I... I don’t know," Kapa said with a pained face. "All I know is that the Goddess’s bloodline is impure. She is very likely a half-elf."
"And?"
"I need more information. Anything related to the Goddess!"
Nio was anxious.
Half-elves were offspring of elves and other races, regarded by elves as the lowest of the low.
Although most half-elves had been expelled, there were still over five hundred female half-elves in the tribe, mostly doing the lowest jobs.
The situation was urgent; they had no time to screen them one by one.
"Is there anything special that can identify her as the Goddess?"
Kapa said cautiously, "We just translated some information. The Goddess should have recently returned to the elves..."
"Recently..."
Kapa murmured and waved his hand. "Take him away!"
"Yes!"
The guards immediately took Kapa away to search for the Goddess.
Nio already had plans in mind and hurried back to the Elven capital.
Most external interactions of the Elven tribe with the outside world were handled by the Water Star Clan, so outside personnel movement was rare.
If the Goddess had only recently returned, this could narrow down the candidates to just a few.
Nearby, elder Doris, who heard the entire conversation, furrowed her brow.
A half-elf who recently returned to the elves?
Could it be Cleriway?
Such a coincidence?
Soon, on the way back to the capital, the third prince confirmed all the information from the guards.
In the past six months, three half-elves had returned to the elves from outside, and in the past two months, only one!
Cleriway!
Elder Doris of the Elven team frowned deeply, feeling a strange, indescribable sensation.
It really was her!
Nio ordered, "Find these three immediately and bring them to the palace. I want to see them personally!"
"Yes!"
Kapa was kept among the group, his heart full of panic.
What was going on? How had he been taken to the Elven capital?
He knew nothing and wondered how he would explain himself and survive once there.
While lost in thought, Kapa suddenly heard Fang Heng’s voice beside him.
"Kapa, you did well. I will follow you from now on, don’t worry."
Kapa realized Fang Heng had returned and breathed a sigh of relief, his hunched back involuntarily straightening a bit.
In fact, Fang Heng had long left a blood imprint on Kapa.
When the blood imprint moved, Fang Heng immediately knew the elves couldn’t restrain themselves and rushed over to meet Kapa.
Half an hour later, the third prince rode a rainbow unicorn and returned to the palace.
In a side hall, the three suspected goddesses with impure bloodlines, including Cleriway, were guarded by soldiers.
Elder Brand was also present.
Cleriway might have a great connection to the restoration of the ancient tree of life’s strength, so she was under Brand’s personal watch.
Upon hearing that the third prince specifically wanted to see Cleriway, Brand came along and had just learned the situation from the guards.
Goddess? Premonition?
Brand and elder Doris exchanged glances, seeing suspicion in each other’s eyes.
The third prince scrutinized the three clan members with some disgust, then looked back at Kapa and asked, "Kapa! Which of these three is the Goddess?"
Knowing Fang Heng was nearby, Kapa calmed himself somewhat compared to before and replied, "Your Highness, the premonition did not describe the Goddess’s appearance. However, we recently urgently translated part of the stone wall information. The premonition shows the Goddess has a close connection to the Tree of Life and possesses a special ability to slowly absorb the strength of the ancient tree of life, drawing power from the aging ancient tree to cultivate a new generation of the ancient tree and complete the cycle of life’s reincarnation..."
Those in the hall fell into a moment of silence upon hearing this.
Sacred tree, rebirth, reincarnation...
For tens of thousands of years, the elves had tried everything to revive the vitality of the ancient tree of life.
Now, the premonition told them they were going the wrong way.
The ancient tree had reached the end of its cycle, and what they truly needed to do was to give up and find a way to cultivate a new generation of the ancient tree to complete the cycle.
The third prince hesitated, looking at the two elders.
Brand and Doris were even more doubtful.
This all felt too coincidental.
Too unnatural.
Nearby, Kapa saw everyone silent and cautiously said, "Your Highness, I think if she really is the Goddess, then she must be able to cultivate a new generation of the ancient tree. That would prove her identity."
