Chapter 143 Dream Weaver

"came back!"

In the woods.

The busy Augla and his companions soon saw Rhodes who had returned and all came forward to greet him.

But before they could ask about the meteorite, they discovered that Kaba was carrying a scarred stranger on his back.

"Lord Rhodes, what is this?"

Augura asked doubtfully.

"I met him outside. Erin, come over and see if he is one of your people?" Rhode looked at Erin beside him.

Erin, who already felt that the figure was familiar, hurried over.

When she saw the creature that looked very similar to her and was covered in scars, she couldn't help but gasp.

"We are the elves, no doubt. How could she be injured like this?"

The elf's body was covered with wounds and scratches, some of which were even covered with a layer of blood scabs, and looked so deep that you could see the bones. There was almost no intact area.

Yilin didn't even dare to imagine how she survived. How much torture must she have endured to become like this?

"It's a little weird."

At this time, Alpha next to him also spoke slowly, his eyes fixed on the elf's arms and feet: "A large part of her body has been contaminated by the black soil. Logically, her consciousness should have been devoured and turned into a black beast, but I can sense a breath of life from her body."

"Huh? It seems to be true." Augula's eyes lit up, and he also found something unusual. "How about we save her and ask her?"

Faced with this rare life form, even they were a little curious.

If they could find a way to resist the black soil, they could leave the forest and go outside to accompany Lord Rhodes.

Otherwise, those two little devils would always follow us and take away all the credit.

"Let's try to see if we can save him first."

On the way back, Rhodes had tried to transfer life energy to the elf, but the effect was minimal and he could only keep the elf hanging on.

So after thinking for a while, he took out a small bottle of Moon Spring and handed it to Yilin.

Erin, who was concerned about her people, naturally had no time to think so much. She immediately fed the Moon Spring to the elf, then leaned in his arms and waited quietly.

"Cough cough..."

really.

The Moon Fountain is truly the holy water of life.

In just a moment, the elf coughed violently a few times and woke up from his coma.

"woke up!"

"I really woke up!"

"I said Lord Rhodes has a way."

The elf slowly opened his eyes and saw a group of strange faces surrounding him.

It was a conditioned reflex that made me want to break free.

But the severe pain made her unable to move.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you are safe, everything is fine..."

A gentle voice sounded, and Yilin hugged her tightly, looking extremely distressed.

What kind of environment would she have to live in for the first thing she did when she woke up to be to run away?

The elf, who was still struggling violently, finally noticed Erin's presence. His pupils shrank, and he shook his head in horror.

"No, no... I'm not a monster... Go away... Go away!"

With a scream, she seemed to have unleashed her potential, suddenly broke free from Irene's embrace, and staggered out.

While running, she looked back from time to time, and those distorted and hideous faces seemed to appear in front of her again.

She could only shake her head frantically, saying things like "Don't chase me away" and "I'm not a monster", like a person struggling on the edge of a cliff.

finally.

Because of the excessive stimulation or perhaps due to physical exhaustion, his eyes rolled back and he fainted again.

Fortunately, Yilin reacted in time and rushed over to catch her, and her vision became blurred.

"how so……"

Not only her, but other elves and dark elves also rushed over after hearing the news, looking at the young elf in her arms with concern.

"poor child."

"What an inhuman treatment they have suffered."

"Whoever dares to treat our people like this, I will make them pay the price!"

"That's right!"

The elves were filled with righteous indignation, displaying an aura completely different from their usual demeanor.

Especially Erin, who exuded a terrifying murderous intent, causing the black soil outside to fluctuate.

Seeing this, Rhode said, "Since she is one of your people, then leave her to you to take care of. She may have been seriously injured, so be careful not to stimulate her too much."

"Leave it to us, we will take good care of her!"

As they spoke, Irene and her tribesmen carried the elf into the wooden house they had built earlier and took good care of it.

It seems that if we want to get useful information from the elf, we will have to wait for a while.

"What do you think?"

Rhodes turned and looked at Augla and Alpha beside him.

"It is obvious that she must have been subjected to inhuman torture before, and it is very likely related to the pollution in her body." Alpha spoke first.

"I also noticed that the wounds on her body were not caused by the black beast, but more like man-made ones. There were traces of shackles in several places." Augula added.

Rhode raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "So, she escaped from a large group?"

According to the information brought back by Aina and her team, there are no elves in the Crescent Canyon and the Giant Tree Alliance.

In other words.

This elf may not be from the Black Earth Plains, but may have escaped from somewhere else.

This also confirmed his suspicion.

There are indeed many surviving ethnic groups on the black soil.

"In that case, let's wait until she calms down before asking her about the details."

Rhodes glanced at the elven wooden house in the distance, then went to the open space outside and began to process the collected meteorites.

Augla and Alpha went back to continue meditating, striving to be promoted to level six as soon as possible so that they could stay on the black soil for a longer time.

Until the evening.

Yilin, with an excited face, hurried over from a distance.

"Lord Rhodes, she's awake! Come and see!"

"are you awake?"

Rhodes stopped what he was doing and hurried into the cabin.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the elf hugging an elderly tribesman and crying loudly. The crying was heartbreaking and could be heard throughout the surrounding area.

The eyes of the other elves nearby were also red, and anyone could hear how much grievance was contained in their crying.

"Poor child, it's okay, it's okay now... No matter what you become, we are your people and will never drive you away again..." The older elf gently supported her back with one hand, and his soft voice seemed to have some kind of magic that calmed people's anxious hearts.

Rhode watched for a while, but didn't want to disturb them, so he went outside with Erin.

"How is it, did you find out anything?"

"Asked."

Erin looked serious and sighed, "Just as we guessed, because her body was contaminated by the black soil, she was chased out by her tribe as a monster, and then she was captured and sold in a black soil city. She escaped here with great difficulty."

"Black Earth City?"

"Yes. According to her, after the disaster three hundred years ago, many of the races that survived chose to flee the central area and go to the less polluted outskirts to reproduce. Now it has developed into a large city, much larger than the Crescent Canyon."

"I see."

No wonder.

No wonder there are so few survivors around here.

It turned out that they all ran to the outskirts of the Dream Forest.

I don’t know their specific strength and scale, so I’ll have to keep an eye on them when I get the chance.

And judging from the looks of it, there seems to be a surviving branch of the elves over there. Erin should be very happy, right?

however.

This was beyond Rhodes's expectation.

When he asked this question, Yilin's expression suddenly became complicated.

"My people have been polluted. To treat her like this, I don't know how to face them."

It stands to reason.

The lives in the dream forest are all original lives that contain the blood of ancestors and belong to the most orthodox bloodline.

All the scattered ethnic groups are just branches below, and of course they all hope to return to the place of origin of the ethnic group.

But now.

The actions of those elves were really too much. She didn't know how to deal with it for a moment. She could only make a decision after returning to report to Her Majesty the Queen.

Because in the entire Elf Empire.

Only Her Majesty the Queen contains the blood of her ancestors.

"Leave it to your queen to handle?"

After listening to her story, Rhode fell into deep thought: "Well, you should solve the problems of your own tribe by yourselves. Anyway, more and more elves will be able to come in by then."

"Thank you, Lord Rhodes."

There was gratitude in Erin's eyes.

Originally, this matter should have been decided by the tree god. Now that the tree god is not here, it is the messenger of God who makes the decision.

But Rhode let them solve it themselves, which was already a great deal of power.

"Wow~"

Just then, the sound of trees shaking was heard.

In the plantation not far away, the little Masochist tree swayed gently, and a leaf fell off and flew into Irene's hand.

Yilin was startled, then became excited.

"Lord Tree God, do you also support our approach? Thank you, Lord Tree God!"

She now regarded the masochistic little tree as the incarnation of the tree god's will in the forest. When she saw the little tree bestowing leaves of life, she knew that the tree god must have approved of her actions.

After expressing his gratitude profusely, he hurried back to the Elf Empire to report the situation.

Only Rhodes was left standing there, looking at the masochistic little tree with shining eyes.

"Are your leaves so precious? Wouldn't it be possible to make a lot of money if you sold them all?"

Xiao Dou: ...

Be yourself!

Is this thing sold casually?
The little Masochistic tree stopped moving and continued to absorb nutrients and grow taller.

Don't tell me yet.

After the forest area expanded several times, its height soared again, reaching a height of twenty meters, almost the same as Augla.

You have to know that when Augla first came, it was only five or six meters tall, so its speed was unprecedented.

If it continues to grow like this, the scattered branches and leaves will probably cover the entire altar.

By then, it may become a landmark of the Dream City, so that as soon as those foreign souls enter the woods, they will know where the Dream City is and how grand it looks.

"Hmm... this is a good idea. Little Dou, grow up well. I have high hopes for you."

Patting the shaking tree trunk, Rhodes left contentedly.

Only a small tree was left, standing alone and disheveled in the wind.

……

A blink of an eye.

Two days passed.

Under the careful care of the elves, the elf who was brought back finally let down her guard and adapted to life in the woods. She also learned that it was Rhodes who rescued her.

finally.

Surrounded by Rhodes, Augla and others, she revealed the secret of how she was contaminated but did not turn into a black beast.

"I... met the Dream Weaver..."

The timid voice echoed throughout the wooden house.

Rod Yilin who was inside the house and Augla and others who were outside were all stunned when they heard this.

"Dreamweaver? What is that?"

Even the older elves who were well-informed looked at each other in confusion, as it was the first time they heard this unfamiliar name.

But the elf girl's next words made them terrified.

"The Dream Weaver is... the creator of dreams, and one of the four demigods ruled by the Moon Goddess..."

"Demi god?!"

"you sure??"

this moment.

Everyone, including Rhodes, was shocked.

They had been trying to find the fourth demigod, but they didn't expect to hear it in this way, which made them unable to react for a while.

"and many more!"

Rhodes interrupted, "You mean to say that the demigod called Dream Weaver is still alive? And infected you with the black soil?"

A living demigod was too much for him.

If they could find the other party, perhaps they could uncover the cause of the incident that happened three hundred years ago. This would definitely be the most useful information they have so far.

Not to mention Augla and the others.

They all looked nervous, afraid of missing something.
