Chapter 513: Chapter 309: Bustard, Let Go of That Little Lolita... Little Fox, let me come in! (6.4k) _3[Ding! Traveler, you have triggered the Epic Quest: The Prelude to the Flood Disaster Waterlit (Due to unnatural generation and existing human guidance, rating is downgraded by one tier)]

    [Quest Summary: One of the pinnacle natural disasters of this world, the Flood Disaster Waterlit, under the deliberate guidance of some people, has made its prelude appear and has already devoured a town. You can try to clear the prelude of this flood disaster, or choose to ignore it.]

    [Reward: After successful clearance, you can obtain a Talent Effect Upgrade x1 (the highest quality of talent that can be upgraded depends on the task rating), a chance for a Random Talent Draw x1 (up to Epic), and a Talent Deletion x1.]

    [Description: This is the first time you have actively sought to encounter an Origin Disaster, Traveler. You possess considerable courage, keep it up~]

    The Snowice Disaster prelude quest triggered last time in Winter City was at the Legendary level. This time, it’s also a prelude to an Origin Disaster but only at the Epic level, it seems that this "someone is guiding" has caused the evaluation to drop, putting it on the same level as the aftermath of a locust disaster.

    But Luo Xi didn’t feel relaxed inside.

    The fact that this thing could be controlled by Transcendents was seriously outrageous.

    No wonder Hiss wanted to abandon the title of Divine Tree Holder to become a Tier Five Snowice Disaster.

    He flapped his wings lightly, intending to take to the skies, only to find that his body seemed to have lost all strength, and a pain that was hard to suppress radiated from within him.

    Halide, watching from a distance and seeing Luo Xi’s expression contort with pain, laughed manically, "I have surrounded the area with droplets of water, and as long as you breathe, you will inhale them. How dare you make a move? Ah?! As a Variant, shouldn’t you hate the people of these towns, yet you still want to avenge them?"

    Halide had assumed that Luo Xi had come for revenge for the destruction of the White Blossom Township.

    Pressing on his chest, Luo Xi managed a strained smile, "Revenge? I’m simply fulfilling a commission."

    "No need for more words, die."

    With a wave of his hand, the receded Black Tide surged forward like a true tidal wave.

    At that moment, aboard the airship, a lot of metallic liquid seeped out, congealed into spheres, and plummeted rapidly towards the ground below.

    Inside the airship, Wei’er (〃＞﹏＜〃) gripped the control stick in the pilot seat, and although Spark had told her it would maintain a hover state without her intervention, she was still very scared.

    Aina was also constantly peering down from the co-pilot seat.

    She wanted to know what was happening below.

    Both of them were unaware that, at that moment, atop the airship, a ghostly pink-haired girl stood erect, also staring down at the scene below.

    Emerald City.

    As the royal city of the noble Elf race, the Eternal World Tree—Emerald, stood like a massive column supporting the heavens and earth. Translucent light green radiance enshrouded the entire grand city from a kilometer high, bestowing its blessing over the nearly eight million population below.

    Among them, four hundred thousand were Elves, while the remaining seven million plus were ordinary humans. Mutant Patients were not allowed near the royal city unless they were Craftsmen with Grandmaster-level skills.

    Within the most inner circle of the royal palace in Emerald City.

    A beautiful woman with an emerald green gemstone crown quickened her pace down the deserted corridor, her luxurious gold-green sheer dress perfectly accentuating her enchanting and slender body. Her dazzling golden hair cascaded down her back, and her beautiful visage seemed almost too perfect to be real.

    The pointed ears peering through her golden locks revealed her Elf heritage, while her cold and profound green eyes gazed ahead at the end of the corridor.

    Upon reaching the end, she didn’t stop but continued to move forward. Her body passed through an invisible barrier, causing ripples to appear on the walls ahead.

    And then, she vanished into thin air.

    She arrived at the gate of a narrow courtyard.

    Sweet sounds of a harp resonated from within, eliciting a pleasant mood in the listener. Yet, those who stopped and listened carefully could discern the subtle threads of sorrow woven throughout.

    The woman paused for a moment, then pushed open the courtyard gate and stepped inside.

    The music ceased abruptly.

    "Kureya, you’ve come."

    In the courtyard, a dreamlike Elf woman set aside the harp in her hands. She lifted her head, her eyes of the same hue locking onto the uninvited woman who had barged in, with a faint sadness lingering in her gaze.

    What was once a close relationship between the two.

    Had now come to this point.

    Kureya glanced at the woman indifferently, "Lisiti, many incidents have arisen in the Emerald Forest lately. Just a few days ago, numerous Fallen Divine Trees appeared unexpectedly, and Alexilita from the Colorful Dragon Emperors has shown up as well. Along with the emergence of a group of strange humans who can resurrect, I need the power of the Mother Tree Origin controlled by you to work with me in dealing with potential surprises ahead."

    Lisiti shook her head, "I will not cooperate with you."

    Unlike the other Eternal World Trees, such as Noah’s Origin treating the Pope as a servant, the Elf race is considered the ’children’ of the Emerald Tree, with the royal family having direct rights of communication with its Origin.

    Each generation of Elf Emperors, even possessing the ability to control the Origin in combat. Even though the power bestowed upon them is just a minuscule fraction, it is enough to make them invincible beneath the level of an Origin Disaster.

    Apart from the Elf Emperor, other Elves could also be granted power from the Origin.
