Chapter 89 The True Inheritance

  For the dark elves with their long lifespan, time is always abundant.

  But at this moment, Mason felt an irrepressible sense of impatience and anxiety for the first time.

  "Where is it? Tell me now and I'll make your death a little easier." Mason said in a low voice.

  To add emphasis to his words, he raised his hand and casually fired a shot. Accompanied by the low hum of the gunshot, the head of a long-robed elf suddenly exploded like a watermelon hit by an iron rod, with blood, flesh, and brain fragments mixed together, red and white alternating, splashing everywhere.

  Around them, a group of elves around level 20 watched as their comrade fell beside them, anger filling their eyes, yet they did not dare to make a move.

  "We are the gardeners of Dawn's Garden, the servants of the Tree of Life! Son of Darkness, do you think we will yield to such bloody violence?" An elderly elf with white hair and beard gazed at the corpse lying in a pool of blood with a sorrowful expression, rebuking in an uncompromising tone.

  Mason furrowed his brow and subconsciously moved his fingers.

  He really wanted to shoot the elder's forehead with one shot, but considering that among all the "gardeners", this person had the highest status, and if only this elder knew the location of that thing, he would have wasted all his previous efforts. Moreover, the mission he was carrying on his shoulders would also become a bubble.

  Unlike in the past, he had hundreds of ways to pry out the desired information from these stubborn "gardeners", but now, without the Blood Blade Thief Gang around him and with only himself to watch all the captives.

  What made Mason even more uneasy was that unprepossessing young man.

  Just as Medici was certain that the Dark Elves would not fall to their deaths in the abyss, Mason was equally certain that Medici would be able to escape from the dark and mysterious magical pulse. And once inside the royal court, the Dark Elves believed that Medici would head straight for the Starry Temple.

  People of that level can only appreciate the treasure of Wang Ting's inheritance at this level.

  Only he didn't know whether Midee would discover the secret hidden in Xingmu Temple and find his way here.

  If he found his way here, he had no confidence in being able to defeat an enemy who could thrust out such a terrifying sword.

  So, we must make it a quick battle and leave as soon as we get what we need.

  The dark elf who had lost his patience was scanning back and forth with an icy gaze, like a ferocious wolf ready to pounce into the chicken coop at any moment, when suddenly, his eyes lit up.

  In the crowd, he saw a female young spirit, at most only seven or eight years old, truly young. And this spirit girl's appearance was very similar to that of the spirit elder and his family. Interestingly, this girl was hiding on the edge, far away from the elder.

  These cunning elves!

  Mason secretly sighed in his heart, and the weapon in his hand sprayed out flames, instantly turning the two adults who intentionally blocked the little girl into sieves.

  Then he roughly picked up the little spirit girl who was covered in blood and had been scared out of her wits.

  "Now, you should tell me where the thing is, shouldn't you?" Mason's mouth curved into a cold and cruel smile, his long fingers tracing over the girl's delicate face like a sharp knife.

  "You damned fool!" The elder sprite was so enraged that his whole body shook, his fists clenched tightly, yet he couldn't take a step forward.

  "Don't worry, I won't kill the kid... yet. But I'll dismember her piece by piece. First, her fingers, then her toes, followed by her limbs, and then her face. And finally, I'll dig out her heart bit by bit." Mason sneered, "You have one minute to think about it. Tell me, where is the seed of the Tree of Life?"

  The seed of the Tree of Life, Yggdrasil's kind.

  This guy, is he really after that thing?!

  Hiding in the dark, Mi Di's breath still caught slightly despite being mentally prepared.

  Destruction is rebirth, this is a proverb often said by the gardeners of dawn. It is said that every life tree will leave behind its own seeds when it dies, waiting for the future to change and grow again on the earth.

  However, the lifespan of the Tree of Life is too long, and they are basically all located in the core protection of various kingdoms and forces, so few people can see the moment when they are destroyed. Therefore, it is almost impossible for anyone to consider things like the seeds of the Tree of Life.

  But undoubtedly, at this moment, when the heavenly fire descends, and the life tree of the Spirit Kingdom is on its last breath, the seeds it leaves behind must be the most valuable legacy in this kingdom.

  Midi, who had seen countless treasures of all kinds, knew this better than anyone.

  It's no longer describable with just the four words "value beyond city", even the praise of "priceless treasure" doesn't live up to it.

  Because this is not a "treasure", but rather a sacred vessel sufficient to establish a nation.

  No matter whether it's on the ground, in the sky islands, or in the underground world, as long as there is a region with magical veins, after planting the seeds of the Tree of Life, within three years at most, it will automatically grow and integrate all the magical veins within hundreds of kilometers around it, regardless of size.

  As time passes, the newly born magical pulse will gradually expand its influence under the influence of the Tree of Life, until it finally becomes a "Dragon Pulse" that can affect an area of tens of thousands of kilometers.

  And the owner of this dragon vein will naturally become the master of this vast land.

  Just like "The Mistress of the Forest" - The Fog Witch.

  Moreover, compared with the control method established by using the array of Qi flow, Dragon Vein is much more excellent.

  After all, the flow control array can be destroyed. If you chip away at it bit by bit from the outside, eventually, you can shatter the Misty Witch's control. However, the Dragon Pulse is different. It's not "flow control", but rather "attraction". When the Dragon Pulse forms, the surrounding demonic pulses will automatically surge towards the center. There's no need for any spell arrays, and it can't be destroyed naturally.

  The only way is to destroy the dragon vein itself. However, this means that the invader will have to face the full defensive power of magic formed within the dragon vein.

  This is undoubtedly a vicious circle.

  Even so, even if it is a strong person, it is absolutely impossible for one person to break through the seal of the dragon vein.

  Just like the previous life, even a behemoth like the Delos Empire had to rely on internal responses and traitors to be willing to face the Nibelungenlied Dragon Array of the Bellmard Kingdom.

  Having a dragon vein is what makes it possible to call it a "country", this is an unwritten rule of the Arad continent.

  And now, something that could be used to establish a nation is right here, within Midie's reach.

  The Delos Empire is on the move, and a great war is approaching. Even as a Reborn like Midy, there's no guarantee of emerging unscathed from the war. Therefore, he had long since thought of establishing an escape route, so that he, Fina, Eris, and the newly-born Falcon Squad could survive even in the worst-case scenario.

  And now, if there is a seed of the Tree of Life, it will not be a way out, but a new world.

  In his previous life, Mi Di had adventured in almost every corner of the Alrad continent. He was familiar with the Sky City and the Sky Canopy Beast, as well as other secret realms in the sky. He had even ventured into the Demon Realm. The choice of location was not a problem for Mi Di at all.

  The only thing left to do now is to get the seed of the Tree of Life!

  However, despite the turmoil in his heart, Midei didn't make any movement, not even a slight change in his gaze, still maintaining his usual calm and indifference. He hid in the shadows, his entire being holding its breath, as if he had already merged with the darkness.

  Like a hunting leopard ready to pounce, calm and cold, unmoved by any illusory temptation, with only the prey itself in its eyes.

  Of course, a Kishin's stealth skills are far from perfect.

  If placed in a normal situation, even a high-ranking Mason of 45 degrees would still have the opportunity to discover Madi.

  But at this moment, most of Mason's thoughts were focused on the stubborn spirits in front of him, and the rest were used for vigilance, so he didn't have time to spare to perceive the flow and changes of the surrounding aura.

  He toyed with the delicate handgun, occasionally shaking it at the fairy girl being held hostage, staring at the fairy elder with an icy gaze, counting down in his heart.

  "Time's up, have you thought it through?" A minute had passed in the blink of an eye, but since they'd already waited a minute, Mason's voice seemed to slow down instead.

  Impulsiveness and hot blood are only temporary, once calm, everyone is afraid of death, even those who think they have a noble mission, the "gardener" is no exception. Mason was well aware of how to manipulate people's minds and make them feel fear.

  The old elf moved his lips, but remained silent.

  However, the fairy girl finally burst into tears at this moment, and the mournful and fearful intermittent crying sound filled the silent space, striking every fairy's heart, causing their morale to be worn down, corroded, until it collapsed.

  The elder sprite let out a long sigh and finally nodded: "Please put down that child, the seed of the Tree of Life is yours."

  "Lead the way." Mason set down the little girl and said coldly.

  Everyone here put together is no match for him, he doesn't care what tricks the other side plays, taking a hostage over just to break their defense in as short a time as possible.

  What he wants is speed, to grab the seed of the Tree of Life before Mordi arrives.

  Now those stubborn gardeners finally loosened up, and Mason naturally didn't mind giving them some comfort, anyway, in the end it was inevitable to kill them all.

  But Mason didn't know that at this moment, Middy, who had been watching from the sidelines, also let out a sigh of relief.

  After all, he couldn't just sit back and watch a child die in front of him. If Mason really went on a killing spree, Middy's only choice was to rush out and fight head-on.

  This has nothing to do with interests, but Midy's principle. If even principles cannot be adhered to, how can victory be achieved?

  But now, he could sense that the powerful Dark Elf intended to wait until everything was over before making a move. This way, at least as a hidden card, Mide could choose his own opportunity to make a move.

  The moment when the opponent's mind is relaxed will undoubtedly be the best opportunity.
