Chapter 3006
Although Miss Oulannuode did not show her life ring, the woman in front of the tree cast a vigilant look at her as if she knew the information in advance.
But the "Clockmaker" was clearly not afraid of this Ancient Witch. She raised her right hand to show the back of her hand to the two. The slightly sparse leaf pattern on the back of her hand was unusually clear at the end of the dim temple:
"Since you have walked in front of me, it means that Thomas Bennett has already been defeated. But this is also normal. If I also had the help of the 'God Caller' and the assistance of the Fifth Era witch, I could also go that far. But fortunately, the Ancient One in the forest is also a good helper, especially since he is very generous.
I can guarantee that if I fail this time, it is really a defeat. In fact, as far as I personally and the 【Tree Hole Society】 are concerned, the things given to us by the Ancient One in the forest have already satisfied our purpose of coming to the forest. But after receiving benefits from others, one must always return favors, so I am standing here."
"Do you mean to say that you actually don't want to obtain the qualification for the Time War again?"
Emilia asked, and the "Clockmaker" thought about it carefully and actually nodded:
"My desire to become the Chosen One is not great. We came here just for the secret of time. The Ancient One asked us to give us that secret, and let me appear in front of you again. That's probably how it is."
Her left hand behind her back was pressed against the trunk. As the voice fell, the thirteen needles on her hair tips all pierced into the trunk of the tree, so the greenish tree immediately erupted with light.
Everyone stood in place watching what she wanted to do. If she wanted to break the rules of fairness, then the three Thirteen-Ring Shushi present would tell her what fairness was. However, although the tree erupted with light, it was not trying to attack anyone. In that light, a figure with pointed ears walked out of the trunk.
The body was illusory at first, but as the tree returned to its greenish appearance, the illusory figure solidified until it completely turned into the appearance of a living person.
A tall elf over two meters tall appeared from the "Memory Tree" just like this. He was wearing fully armed elf armor, and on the shiny silver breastplate were decorations of the ancient elf kingdom that no one except Xia De and Emilia could recognize.
Although this was indeed an elf, in the eyes of most people, he was as sturdy as a brown bear. His gaze swept over the crowd in front of the tree, and the tall elf finally looked at Emilia wearing the silver crown:
"Is it you who wants to become the Elf King?"
Although he looked like an ancient person, what he said was standard Karsenrik common language. Emilia then nodded, and then whispered:
"You are not a collaborator in the Time War, right?"
"Time War?"
The sturdy ancient elf asked in confusion, and then immediately understood:
"So it's already the end... Do you want to participate in the trial?"
"Trial? The trial to become king?"
The sturdy elf stared at Emilia seriously for a few seconds:
"No, no one is qualified to judge whether you can be called king. When we built this underground building, we left a unique memory here for the future Elf King. If you want to get that memory, you need to participate in the trial."
The smiling "Clockmaker" also spoke:
"Little elf, go participate in the trial. If you pass the trial, I will admit defeat to you; if you don't pass... I will also admit defeat to you. I am no longer in the mood to fight you. I think if you can win more simply, you shouldn't disagree, right?"
Emilia had never expected this situation, so she looked up to ask Miss Oulannuode for her opinion. Miss Librarian didn't speak, after all, she understood that the only one who made the decisions here was Xia De.
"Who are you?"
Xia De asked, and the elf who walked out of the tree cast his gaze on him, hesitated for a moment, and then bowed slightly:
"Son of the Moon, sorry for not noticing you just now. I am a memory left by the Elf King who lived in the Second Era. My mission is to pass on that sealed ancient memory. Are you the guardian of this young elf? If you are worried about my authenticity, you can accompany her to participate in the trial."
After Xia De hesitated slightly, he closed his eyes and carefully sensed the elemental composition of the sturdy elf before nodding:
"Emilia, go ahead. But let Miss Oulannuode accompany you, and I and the other two gentlemen will watch the 'Clockmaker'."
Miss Oulannuode then took Emilia's hand, and the sturdy ancient elf nodded, his body disintegrated into emerald light spots, and then those light spots formed a glowing door in front of the tree.
That was a pure miracle element, which could not be faked. And people with elf bloodlines present, including but not limited to Emilia, Miss Oulannuode, Mr. Eldron, and members of the elf team, could feel that power connected to their own bloodlines.
Emilia and Miss Oulannuode walked into the door holding hands. The door did not close, but nothing could be observed inside from the outside.
However, Xia De could sense Emilia's position by virtue of the "Undying Fire Seal," and the little elf did not go very far.
The "Clockmaker," who continued to lean against the glowing big tree, took out a pocket watch and glanced at it, but she should be able to sense time accurately like Xia De, so this action was meaningless:
"While that elf is still busy, God Caller, let's talk."
Her fake eye looked at Xia De again, looking not worried about her own safety:
"The first time I heard your story was last summer, at that time..."
Both of her eyes met Xia De's eyes. She originally just wanted to observe the expression of the "God Caller," but at this moment, she found that a purple light seemed to flash across the eyes of the "God Caller."
The light was not dazzling, but the appearance of that purple made her heart seem to stop instantly. Because in that purple, she saw a woman with a blurry face punch down a giant ancient tree, and she saw that woman with a blurry face hold up a staff in the raging fire of the forest as if to pull the moon down.
Then the woman standing alone in the sea of fire turned to look at her, and the purple eyes full of killing intent seemed to pass through the barrier of time through the eyes of the God Caller and look directly at the "present."
So with a 'crack', a crack appeared on the surface of the magic eye in the "Clockmaker's" left eye, which was almost impossible for a relic. And the "Clockmaker," who failed to pass the panic judgment, trembled all over, and after saying half of her words, she leaned against the big tree behind her, and her body collapsed and fell down.
Her performance was really too strange, so that no one in the team took the opportunity to control her while she lost consciousness.
And when the confused people gradually reacted, the leaf pattern on the back of the "Clockmaker's" hand forcibly woke her up. She leaned against the trunk and stood up again, but she was completely afraid to look at the eyes of the "God Caller" again.
Xia De didn't know what happened, and only thought of the blessing given by the long-haired girl not long ago when the other party started talking again.
"The first time I heard your story was last summer. At that time, the rumor was that you represented an unknown moon deity and opened the prelude to the epic of the 'Whispering Poem' for the Sixth Era. The gods gave you the power to open the epic of this era, which also symbolizes the legitimacy of the Chosen Ones."
She tried hard to control her eyes and absolutely must not look at the eyes of the "God Caller" again:
"Later, although I heard that you were also proficient in the power of time and space, it was not until the story of the eighth Chosen One in Vista Forest began that I knew what 'proficient in the power of time and space' really meant.
I think you should be able to be immune to most time effects, right? This is an enviable talent that none of us candidates for the Chosen One of Time have. I am curious, since you are not a Chosen One, where does this talent come from? The ancient Elf King just now even called you 'Son of the Moon', which shows that your connection with the gods is mainly related to the moon. So God Caller, please tell me, why does the Tree Father favor you so much?"
"Clockmaker, no one here should be asked by you, or answer your boring questions."
Mr. Gerald Delong, the "Construct Master," said so, and the woman in front of the tree laughed:
"Then what if I am willing to exchange questions for questions? God Caller, answer my question, and I can tell you the current location of the Ancient One."
"Do we still need you to tell us the answer?"
Bella asked back:
"We already know the location of the Ancient One, don't underestimate the intelligence capability of the 【Witch Council】."
"Then I can throw out other information: what will the Ancient One prepare in the forest to wait for you, God Caller, don't you want to know?"
The woman in front of the tree asked with a smile again. This time no one spoke, and Xia De said after thinking for a moment:
"The Tree Father is willing to give me grace because I used the Time Key to do some things."
This is a very honest answer, but it is not that Xia De took the initiative to find the door to ask for tasks, but those tasks found him, so even if he said it, he was not afraid that someone could do the same thing.
"Time Key? If so...
God Caller, those enemies who have been defeated by you will reappear tonight. The Ancient One used time clones to bring those acquaintances of yours from the past to the present. Those objects you think have died may give you an unexpected surprise tonight. The time clone only intercepted a fragment of history. No matter what they do in the present, it does not affect the past. You should understand what this means."
The "Clockmaker" said, and continued to ask without giving the crowd time to think:
"Do you still want to play this kind of game? Next question: I want to know what kind of relationship you have with the witches."
She laughed very wildly:
"Don't give me a vague answer. You only need to answer yes or no now: Do you have an unusually intimate relationship with those crazy women of the 【Witch Council】? If you are willing to answer this question, then I can tell you what we 【Tree Hole Society】 have learned from the Ancient One."
