Chapter 121: Hundreds of Years Old Elf Girl
This is a not too big room, with a rather precise magic circle painted on the floor using some kind of special purple paint.
At the four corners of the magic circle, four huge braziers seem to be burning with bright yellow flames forever, and in the center of the magic circle, there is a golden top that seems to be made of gold, quietly placed there. .
After arriving in the room, Toluvel closed the door. She first looked back at Wayne and signaled him to get ready with her eyes.
Then he stretched out his arm, revealing an inscribed bracelet made of an unknown metal. After putting it to his mouth, he began to recite some incantation in a low voice.
Toluviel's voice is very beautiful, at least more beautiful than Keira and Maisie. If she can become a bard, she may be very popular.
When Wayne was thinking this, the golden top in the center of the magic circle suddenly began to rotate. As the golden top rotated, the air above the magic circle began to twist continuously, accompanied by a loud tearing sound. Within a few seconds, a powerful magic force tore open a portal as chaotic as the void above the magic circle.
This is the first time Wayne has seen the portal in the Witcher world. Although he has used it several times in the game, this is the first time he has seen it in person.
Toluvel took back the bracelet on her wrist, then looked at Wayne, and said softly:
"You don't have any experience in using portals, right, Wayne?"
"It's okay, this portal is controlled by Ms. Francesca herself. Yes, it's very safe, but the experience of traveling through time and space is indeed a bit uncomfortable, so I'll get over it after just enduring it." After saying that, the
female elf gave Wayne a follow-up look, and then took the initiative to walk into the seemingly empty teleportation In the door.
After hesitating for a second, Wayne took a gentle breath and gritted his teeth and walked in.
Facts have proved that, as Toluvel said, the experience of traveling through the portal is not pleasant. It is like putting you in a high-speed rotating washing machine, making you unable to distinguish up, down, left, south, south, north, and west. It seems that everything The direction has been reversed, and it feels like the internal organs are jostling inside the body.
After a few seconds, maybe dozens of seconds, Wayne suddenly felt his whole body light up, and his feet touched the ground. The demon hunter's physical fitness and strong sense of balance prevented him from falling to the ground, and he quickly recovered. normal.
He raised his head and observed the surrounding environment, and found that he was in an elven palace with a beautiful environment, and Toluvel was standing not far away, his body swaying a little, his face a little pale, and it seemed that he had not yet passed through the shuttle teleportation array. Get rid of the sequelae.
After a few more seconds, the female elf seemed to get rid of the influence. She turned her head and smiled at Wayne, then pointed at the beautiful and majestic buildings and various exquisite flowers and trees around her, and said with a little pride :
"This is the Elf Palace located in Baihua Valley. Although it was not even named in the past, it is the best-preserved Elf Palace in the world now." After hearing this, Wayne looked at it carefully again
. The surrounding scenery was indeed very beautiful. Various statues of different shapes, colorful murals and ingenious architectural shapes were full of the epic sense of the fantasy world in his imagination.
However, at this time, the entire palace seemed quite deserted. There were neither fully-armed elf guards nor graceful elf maids in skirts. Everywhere was empty, and it looked like it was already declining and lonely.
Toluvel introduced as he walked, and from time to time would explain a few pieces of the glorious history of the elves, as if he wanted to use this method to increase Wayne's recognition and sense of belonging to the elves.
Of course Wayne would not refuse the female elf's enthusiasm, at least on the surface he pretended to listen attentively.
Soon, the two passed through the front yard of the garden, passed through the splendid hall, and passed through a large back garden decorated with rockery fountains and various precious trees, and arrived near a beautiful small lake in the palace. .
Before the two of them could get closer, a beautiful melody played on an elf flute entered Wayne's ears.
The sound of the performance was beautiful, long-lasting, and seemed to have an epic meaning. It seemed to be telling the ups and downs of how a race that survived a disaster relied on its own efforts to build a splendid civilization in a barren land.
Wayne looked along the sound of the playing, and in an elegant and exquisite pavilion, a beautiful elf wearing a white princess dress, with long dark golden hair, beautiful appearance, and a pair of sky blue eyes was sitting on a long Sitting on the chair, he concentrated on playing the epic song.
When he saw Francesca for the first time, Wayne couldn't help but take a breath. He didn't expect that there was such a beautiful woman in the world. Even in the past when he was bombarded by various online videos, he had never seen her. Such beauty.
Although the sorceress in front of her is hundreds of years old, she looks like a pure and flawless girl, as if the most beautiful time has been frozen in her body, and because of the power of the most powerful sorceress The strength seems to have a sense of detachment that is beyond the world. In this way, one person played and two people listened. It was not until Francesca finished playing the entire song that Wayne could not help but let out a breath, feeling a little regretful that this beautiful melody ended.
While she was sighing, the beautiful elf girl in the pavilion had already set her sights on the two of them. She opened her red lips and said in a melodious voice: "Welcome, Lord Toluvel, and this
... , um, Mr. Demon Hunter."
She put down the elf flute, stood up, pointed to the table next to her with her white fingers, and softly invited: "
I asked someone to prepare a dinner, which is unique to the elves. Come on, let's eat and talk."
Hearing this, Toluvel bowed slightly and saluted, and Wayne also recovered from the beauty of the elf sorceress and walked into the pavilion together. .
There were not many dishes on the table. In addition to a plate of unknown types of fish, there was also a bowl of clear soup and several plates of vegetables and fruits. Although they were fragrant, they also seemed very light.
But when Francesca also sat across from Wayne, a charming fragrance entered Wayne's nose from the sorceress opposite.
Like orchids in the mountains or daisies in the morning, it is both light and sultry, making people want to take a few more puffs.
Smelling this fragrant smell actually made his appetite better.
Before the three of them could use their chopsticks, Toluvel picked up a bottle of potpourri on the table, first poured a glass for Francesca opposite her, and then filled a glass for Wayne and herself.
Francesca picked up the wine glass and thanked Toluvel softly, then looked at Wayne with clear blue eyes, and said softly: "
Please forgive me, Mr. Wayne, our elves' food is indeed It seems a bit bland, but if you eat it, it tastes really good."
After hearing what the host said, out of politeness, Wayne modestly said that the taste is very good, but indeed, the taste of these dishes is compared to those of big dishes. The fish seemed a bit bland for the meat, but it still had a special taste that he could still remember.
The three of them chatted while eating, mostly discussing the current situation of the elves and Baihua Valley. Although Francesca seemed a little detached, as a sorceress who was hundreds of years old, her knowledge was far beyond that of this era. Ordinary people.
He speaks in a coherent manner and occasionally makes a small joke, which does not make people feel alienated.
After chatting for a few minutes, Wayne gradually adapted to the content of their conversation. He did not hesitate to express his thoughts on the elves and the northern countries.
Especially regarding the current situation of non-human races being oppressed by humans, he said bluntly:
"There is no way to do this, and it is impossible to obtain the other party's understanding through peaceful means." "
Whether it is in terms of quantity or fertility , It is said that elves or other non-human races are inherently at great disadvantages."
"And the long-term oppression has made most elves feel numb. Unless they wait until their lives are at stake, they will not dare to resist." "But it is not that they
lack the spirit of resistance, but they lack a leader and a guide. "
Everyone has the right to pursue a better life, but humans who have become accustomed to exploiting non-human races will not give up such rights to us."
