"Night Owl, formerly known as Spirit Owl, Staff Holder, she is the second heir of the Staff Holder family, one of the eight nobles of the high-level elves. Among the high-level elves, each noble will choose a very talented child every generation. Entering the palace of Gondo to serve the high priest or the successor of the high priest is a kind of honor and a kind of consolidation of power. However, the high-level elves have lasted for too long, and in the too long time, there are some inherent things will change."
Gu Luen noticed that Mo Ran was looking at Ye Xiao, and he also looked at her, and then slowly said the identity background of this high-level elf: "After all, the closer you are to the right, the more you will feel the power of the right." The longing, especially the current first heir of the Staff Bearer family is her nephew, if nothing else, she should part ways with the family ruler forever."
"Being by the high priest's side for so long, and finally being replaced by an unknown junior, who can bear such an insult? Of course, for high-ranking elves, the high priest is a god. As long as the high priest can speak, this matter can be done." It is very easy to solve, unfortunately, the high priest is an old-fashioned and traditional antique, for the high priest, the eight nobles are always just servants, and she will not bother about servants."
"The high priest rejected Ye Xiao's request and transferred her away from her side. The easy-to-get right was wiped out because of a word from the high priest. Who would want to? Not only Ye Xiao, but also the successors who suffered like Ye Xiao from the eight major families There are too many people, are they willing?"
"When you are not reconciled, you will definitely do some crazy things." Gu Luen finally paused when he said this, he looked straight at Ye Xiao, and finally asked again: "Is that so? Ye Xiao? Or should it be?" Calling you, Betrayer."
Ye Xiao was completely stunned when Gu Luen began to say the first word, and as Gu Luen continued to speak without fluctuation, she collapsed on the ground like a spine that had been ripped off. His whole body was sweating profusely and trembling.
Mo Ran has been listening to Gu Luen's words, and she has been looking at Gu Luen, as if listening fascinated, and this fascination is not only in the background content about the night owl, Gu Luen has a kind of It feels like Mo Ran has been watching him and evaluating him.
It wasn't Mo Ran's evaluation of Gruen, but the evaluation of an unknown investment by the strongest of the dead.
There are some things that have not been experienced, and the choices made are not objective, just like yourself
However, at that time, there was no chance of turning back. Grun's reason and all his courage suppressed this cry, forcing himself to accept the thing as a substitute, forcing himself to accept the fate of death.
If Mo Ran didn't show up.
If Mo Ran hadn't appeared, Gu Luen felt that he could bear all the pain and unwillingness from now to the future. He could even face death calmly, just to protect the fire of the high-level elves, just to protect his sister Gu Luen. Lune.
However, Mo Ran appeared.
She appeared in front of him in a way that was absolutely powerful and completely unexpected to him. She was different from all the women Gruen had ever seen. She stood in front of him, ambitious, and she did not hide it at all. This kind of ambition, she ruthlessly shattered her last persistence, and even inspired all the unwillingness buried in her heart.
Until this moment, Gu Luen had to admit one thing, he regretted, he regretted making his life so mediocre, regretting that his life was completely parasitic on others, regretting that he did not even have Leave no trace of it.
Even under this unwillingness, a kind of resentment began to rise gradually, why?
Why should one of two people with the same blood never see the light of day? Why does this person have to be me?
Is it because you didn't work hard enough? No, obviously he is the one who works harder.
Is it because you are not strong enough? No, obviously he is the stronger one.
why?
It wasn't until he became a stand-in that Gruen finally figured out why, it was because he was male, and because the previous high priest didn't like male successors, that's all.
ha!
It's unbelievable to say it like a joke.
Was the supreme ruler of the high-level elves, the high priest who existed like a **** among the elves, so casual when choosing his successor? What she considers is not the ability of the successor, not the knowledge of the successor, or even the knowledge of the successor.
What an irony.
Even among the elves, women have always been superior and have been deeply ingrained. They have become the law and the truth, but it still makes people want to overthrow it.
Gu Luen felt that all the rebellion and unwillingness in his life were turned into a driving force for action after being rummaged out at this moment. He wanted to overthrow this elf rule.
Mo Ran in front of him was evaluating himself, but he might not be evaluating Mo Ran.
Gu Luen wanted to ask all the elves why he wanted to overthrow this unreasonable, but he would never be able to do it by himself, which is why he gave in before he saw Mo Ran, and now he has a chance In front of him, this opportunity is very dangerous. If he succeeds, he can change not only himself, but if he fails, he may lose everything.
Gu Luen hesitated, but after hesitating for only a second, he had already made a decision to let Mo Ran see more value in him, because only the more value he has, the more worth investing in.
It's a bit sad to say, but only those who are worth being used are valuable.
Gu Luen no longer wants to become that chess piece that can be discarded by others at will, and has never even existed. He wants to control his own destiny.
Compared with Mo Ran, who has lived a lifetime and has always been at the peak of power, Gu Luen's thoughts are too immature. She doesn't even need to think too much, she just takes a simple look and already knows what's in his heart. No matter how active he is, he will be unwilling to do what he thinks about.
Mo Ran suddenly felt a little sour in her heart. Destiny...is indeed the executioner who turns everyone's life upside down.
She sighed softly, and accepted all of Gruen's initiatives with a cautious and serious tone, she stretched out her hand, and gently brushed his hair away: "Thank you for your hard work. "
Until this moment, Gu Luen's desperate effort seemed to have finally come to fruition, and a smile appeared on his tense face due to nervousness.
However, this kind of smile felt very strange to Mo Ran, it was not the same person who was chatting with him on the beach of God's Realm.
Turning her head, Mo Ran looked at Ye Xiao who was already limp on the ground and said, "Come here and let him go."
Ye Xiao froze for a moment, and seemed to have finally come to his senses, and ran over to help Gu Luen uncuff the handcuffs, but at this moment, Gu Luen heard
At that moment, Gu Luen raised his head suddenly as if struck by lightning and looked at Mo Ran, but only saw Mo Ran's distant and reserved smile, with the courtesy of evaluating the product and giving the price, " Do you like the position of High Priest?"
An indescribable bitterness suddenly spread from the bottom of his tongue, making his whole body tremble. He looked at Mo Ran, and finally realized one thing. Once some things go out of that step, they can never go back. up.
He opened his mouth, his voice sounded like a file being pulled on wood: "No, I don't like it."
Mo Ran wasn't surprised either, and just replied in a very ordinary way: "Then change it."
The Tree of Life is located in the mountains behind Gondo, the royal city of the Elf Kingdom. There are many mountains and steep cliffs. There is only one entrance for entry and exit. Moreover, this is a forbidden area for high-level elves, and the outside is heavily guarded. It can be said that ordinary If the elves want to attack here, they need to capture Gondo first, and then push them all the way beyond the mountains. To be able to defeat the strongest mages among the high-level elves guarding here, they need someone to lead the way. find it.
It is precisely because of these reasons that the Tree of Life has become the safest place at this stage.
As a high-level elf, the high priest Gruun naturally hides here.
However, this is also the last hiding place of Gruun.
The huge tree of life can almost tower into the sky. When it is still able to grow luxuriantly, standing under the tree can hardly feel the sunlight, but it doesn't matter, the tree of life itself has an extremely soft light. There is a kind of light from its branches, trunk to every leaf, not only elves, even other races can feel this kind of concrete vitality beside it.
In front of the tree of life is a very magnificent temple. They are built in a ring around the tree of life, protecting the big tree like a shield. However, the temple cannot cover this huge plant. It is lush The canopy of the tree can be seen clearly even across the temple, and there is a huge square in front of the temple.
Not all high-level elves can get close to the tree of life. Except for Grun and a few high-level priests, in fact, more high-level elves worship the tree of life through the temple, and they sacrifice place of worship
At this moment, there are two medium-sized portals on the square. The two portals are opened by Guluen and several high-level priests, blessed with the remaining magic power of the tree of life, plus their own magic power and a lot of The raw magic stone makes the quality of these two portals very high.
They stand on both sides of the square like mirrors. Standing on the edge of the portal, you can even see the towering buildings of the portal through the portal. On one side is the King's Landing City of the Dead, and on the other side is A vast expanse of low buildings, this is the camp of the human rebel army, Hezhou City.
Xie Lang led a hundred elites of the dead through the portal and arrived at the square of the temple.
Before he came, Xie Lang had already guessed that the elves would definitely ask for help from humans, and this kind of request for help was very likely to be supported, but he did not expect that the elves would directly put the portals of the two races in the same place. place.
It's a dog day.
If it wasn't for the high-level dead people who had already made a deal with the elves, or because Moshen was still in the elves' territory, the moment Xie Lang saw the humans, Xie Lang really wanted to go up and **** them.
And when the dead appeared, the humans who had already arrived also saw it, and the crowd began to commotion, but it was just a commotion. Compared with the conservative army, the rebel army seemed more restrained and regular. This kind of commotion spread rapidly in all the troops, but after the man standing in front of the team raised his eyes and took a look, all the voices disappeared without a trace.
Xie Lang, who was on the other side of the square, naturally noticed the commotion and its disappearance. He looked at the leader curiously, only to see that unlike all the soldiers wearing uniform uniforms, He dresses very casually, as if he just found a suit of equipment to match it.
With his back facing Xie Lang, he was extremely tall, even though he was dressed unremarkably, Xie Lang still noticed this person at a glance.
There is no other reason, this person has an aura like a landslide and tsunami, which is a kind of precipitousness that cannot be ignored as long as it exists.
Xie Lang didn't have many opportunities to observe this person. Time is one aspect, and the other is because he watched
Even though he had never seen the High Priest of the High Elf, he could guess that this person was Gruun just from the woman's attire and the several elves all wearing purple priest robes walking behind her.
Xie Lang saluted Gu Luen gently and said hello, and Gu Luen also responded with a decent greeting.
Although the two sides exchanged pleasantries like superficial greetings, Xie Lang could still see that Gu Luen's whole state seemed to be much easier because of the dead, or because of the arrival of the dead and humans.
This is the home ground of the elves. This is a battle between high-level elves and ordinary elves. To put it mildly, humans and the dead came to support them, but to put it bluntly, they are all mercenaries paid by high-level elves. Soldiers must have professional ethics, and no matter how big the conflict is between them, they must never make trouble on the employer's home court.
Gu Luen was also quite worried about what would happen if the support of humans and the dead were ushered in at the same time, but when she found that the people on both sides were in peace, she let it go.
There is only one task between humans and the dead, and that is to cooperate with the high-level elves to completely suppress the ordinary elves outside the city of Gondo.
This matter seems simple to say, but it is not easy to do. After all, ordinary elves have rushed all the way to the center of the power of high-level elves, basically occupying most of the elves. For the city of Gondo, it is inevitable , the morale will be higher than that of the high-level elves. If there is no change of fate against the sky, it will be very difficult to change the current battle situation.
But it's not without power.
The reason why the high-level elves were able to control the entire elf kingdom for such a long time with such a small number of people was not based on any religion, but on their own strength.
There are many temples in various parts of the Elven Kingdom. These temples seem to be used to worship the goddess of the moon and the tree of life they believe in. In fact, there are other uses, that is, to summon a group of gods in an emergency. A mysterious army.
This is a huge magic circle, and to open it requires many powerful high-level elves to drive it at the same time, but before the arrival of humans and the dead, the high-level elves couldn't spare so many people to do this.
And now they can.
Therefore, the idea of the high-level elves now is to let the dead and the dead
This plan sounds beautiful, and if it can become a reality, it will naturally turn the situation around, but this plan requires an indispensable condition, which is temples located in various parts of the elf kingdom.
The more temples there are, the more mysterious legions that can be summoned. Of course, if the number of temples is smaller, the mysterious legions will be fewer. However, no matter how many mysterious legions can be summoned in the end, the magic power that high-level elves need to consume The values are all the same.
Judging from the current situation, the remaining energy of the tree of life may not be able to support such a large magic circle, so everything can only be said to try, as for the result, it is hard to say.
After Gruun explained the plan of the high-ranking elves to the dead and the human commanders, both sides agreed, and ended the brief meeting, and both of them walked towards the square outside the temple.
They lined up on both sides, walking down the tall and long stairs, but Xie Lang kept looking at each other, of course he knew this person.
"Ming Yuechen." Just as the other party was about to complete the stairs and walk towards his team, Xie Lang finally stopped calling his name.
The other party paused, stopped in his tracks, and turned his head to look at Xie Lang. To be honest, Ming Yuechen didn't really remember who the dead commander was, but he was looking for it from the memory of another Ming Yuechen. Regarding his memory, it looks familiar, and he should have met the other party.
He nodded towards the other party as a greeting.
"You...are from the rebel army?" This was what surprised Xie Lang the most.
Since the last battle between the dead and humans, the name Ming Yuechen has been rarely heard. On the battlefield, the scene where he was stabbed in the chest by Mo Ran seems to have happened yesterday. Since then, it seems that he has completely disappeared from the sight of the crowd.
Xie Lang even thought that this person was dead. After all, the news at that time was very complicated. He had heard such rumors in a daze. Therefore, when this person stood in front of him again, and he was still standing in the ranks of the rebel army At that moment, Xie Lang couldn't believe his eyes.
You know, in Xie Lang's impression, although Ming Yuechen is powerful, he is a lackey of the old school and Xu Nancheng through and through, so when he heard
Such a person is now standing directly opposite the conservative faction and making an enemy of Xu Nancheng?
The world is changing so fast that he really can't keep up.
"Rebel army?" Ming Yuechen raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face was slightly mocking. It could be seen that he disapproved of Xie Lang's statement: "What is rebellion? Only those who can be suppressed can be suppressed." Called rebellion, are we?"
Yeah? yes... yes...
These words had already reached Xie Lang's mouth, but they went around, and after a long time, under Ming Yuechen's powerful aura, Xie Lang even nodded kindly: "Then you are..."
"It's just a name, call it whatever you want." When Xie Lang reluctantly confessed, Ming Yuechen didn't seem to care at all, he even turned his head and waved to Xie Lang: "This time, I hope to cooperate joy."
Xie Lang looked at the other person's back, and suddenly felt countless muddy horses rushing past his heart.
To be honest, this person is really annoying!
Mo Ran walked forward along the dark passage. After walking for a while, she was surprised to find that there was a dead end ahead!
God! How could it be a dead end!
When she walked over, she obviously walked along this road, didn't she just walk forward a few steps after getting off the elevator platform, turn a corner and then turn a corner?
How could it be that if she walked back along the road now, it would be a dead end?
Gu Luen, who was following Mo Ran, also looked at the dark stone wall. He stretched out his hand and rubbed the wound on his arm. Guessing the purpose of her coming here, although a very obvious idea popped up in his mind, he still didn't ask because of the other party's calm attitude.
Mo Ran stared at the dark stone bricks in front of her for a while, then turned her head resolutely and walked in another direction. After a while, she saw a dark stone wall again...
After bumping into the wall with Mo Ran several times in a row, Ye Xiao, who had been following the two of them, finally broke down and asked cautiously: "Excuse me...are you lost?"
