Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 1207 - 789: Ancient God (Bonus - )

Fengyue Free Territory, Zelolan.

The city’s docks were as bustling as ever, with ships of all sizes moored at the harbor, and people coming and going.

Perhaps because the Abyss Army had been repelled, showing the strength of the Life Church, or perhaps due to rumors of the Life Goddess showcasing divine power to hunt the Evil God spreading across the world, giving hope to mortals tormented by the war of gods and demons, more and more people have been abandoning their previous beliefs and converting to the Life Church, migrating to the Fengyue Free Territory in recent times.

The Life Temple in the city was packed every day, and elves could be seen on the streets preaching to the masses.

Immersed in the enthusiasm of the elves, refugees newly arrived in the city were overwhelmed, and under the barrage of information, they unwittingly accepted the heavy "Life Scripture," continuously worshiping in the direction of the temple and swearing confusedly to devote their lives to the great Life Goddess Eve...

On the streets of Zelolan.

A handsome minstrel wearing a felt hat and carrying a lute on his back curiously observed everything in the city.

He wandered through the crowd, his gaze deep and weathered, like a sage who has experienced the long years.

"Interesting..."

Watching the agile elves occasionally leap over the roofs, he displayed a hint of interest on his face.

Withdrawing his gaze from the bustling crowd, he stepped toward the temple.

Despite the crowded streets, whenever someone approached him, they unconsciously made way, yet the newcomers who stepped aside remained oblivious.

The minstrel stood there, but no one seemed to notice his presence.

Only a few elves were aware of him.

They turned their heads in the crowd, frowning slightly as they scrutinized him, whispering to their companions.

Vaguely, he heard words like "not a faction NPC" and "unregistered."

"Hmm? Not affected by the mental suggestion?"

A trace of surprise flickered in the minstrel’s eyes.

After a while, the number of elves in the crowd visibly increased, even their equipment became more exquisite and splendid.

To the minstrel’s slight astonishment, the elves suddenly jumped out, drew their weapons, and surrounded him.

"Stop! Who exactly are you?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The elves said with caution and seriousness.

The minstrel’s expression was even more surprised.

And at that moment, he heard one of the elves say:

"Surely a spy from the Eternal Church, seen frequently in the city lately."

"Let’s capture him first and throw him to Demacia for interrogation; he’ll confess everything then."

With that, they exchanged a glance, nodded, took out ropes, and surged forward to bind the minstrel.

The minstrel narrowed his eyes and suddenly vanished from the spot, leaving the elves grasping at air.

"Huh? Where did he go?"

Their expressions were filled with uncertainty and suspicion.

At this moment, someone glanced around, suddenly their eyes lit up:

"Look quickly! Over there!"

"Is that... teleportation? How did he get so far in an instant?"

"Not an ordinary person; probably a high-level NPC..."

"Go quickly to the temple and summon a high-tier NPC!"

In a flurry, the elves split into two groups, some returning to the temple, others continuing to chase the minstrel.

Simultaneously, more elves began arriving from all directions.

The minstrel even saw elves bouncing along the buildings on both sides, suddenly receiving some sort of command, drawing their weapons, and turning to attack him.

Soon, the elves once again blocked him in an alley.

"Stop! You are surrounded!"

"Raise your hands! Or rather... squat down with your hands on your head!"

The elves shouted aggressively.

Looking at these differently dressed elves with stern expressions, the minstrel’s expression grew more surprised.

He chuckled as if genuinely amused, then in a flash, disappeared once more.

"Va... vanished?"

"Could it be a glitch?"

"Darn it!"

Having lunged at empty space once more, the elves stared wide-eyed in utter confusion.

The next second, the minstrel’s figure appeared in another district of the city. Thinking about the elves’ bewildered expressions, he couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

But just then, an ethereal and melodious voice suddenly came from behind him:

"You seem to be having a lot of fun?"

The minstrel was startled, nearly jumping off the ground.

Cautiously turning his head, he saw a tall female elf had appeared behind him.

She wore a simple Elf Robe, even her appearance was unremarkable, yet she exuded an aura of nobility and mystery.

Especially those eyes, like sapphires, crystal clear yet possessing a unique depth, as if they could see through all the world’s mysteries.

At that moment, the minstrel saw the elves pursuing him catch up.

Only, to his slight surprise, it was as if these elves couldn’t see the two of them, simply walking by, muttering as they went:

"Strange? Where did he run off to?"

In a moment, it was just him and the female elf.

The minstrel felt a shift in his heart, already guessing her identity.

His expression turned solemn, placing his right hand in front of him, he performed an ancient gesture of respect:

"Guardian Surt, greets the Life Goddess Eve."

"I have slumbered for a long time, just awakened, and am not yet familiar with the current Segis World, so... I may have been a bit intrusive, I ask for your forgiveness."
