Chapter 260: : Elf Empire (Ⅳ)

Olanca was a male Moonlight Elf who had a relatively high status. Hundreds of years ago, the Moonlight Elves had left the Forest of Life in Sylve.

After they left, they had developed their own belief system. Specifically, the Moonlight Elves believed in the goddess of harvest and earth. They lived in the Silver Moon Forest in the northern part of Yala, which explained their belief in the Lord of Natural Order.

The main differences between the beliefs of the elves and those of human beings regarded resources, among other things. Specifically, the beliefs of the elves were more focused on inner resources, which were interpreted as the will of nature by the elf poets.

Basically, this meant that all of the elves must protect the forest and coexist with nature. Even the elf wizards had to believe in the Lord of Natural Order and love the forest.

The elves in the Forest of Life had been expanding to the east, gradually increasing their contact with the Moonlight Elves and the Daytime Elves. During this time, Olanca went to Sylve in order to seek help on behalf of the Moonlight Elves.

A group of powerful magical beasts had intruded into their villages. Among them, a horrible spider had attacked them!

This spider had a lot of eyes on its abdomen. Whenever its eyes saw any elves, the elves would instantly become mad! This large-scale destructive power became a nightmare for the Moonlight Elves.

What was worse, this group of spiders was planning to overtake the Silver Moon Forest and cultivate their next generation! Although the Moonlight Elves had tried to suppress them, anyone brave enough to have made the attempt had been killed and dragged away as spider's food! Hence, the Moonlight Elves had no other option but to send Olanca to Sylve to ask for help.

"I heard that the Forest Elves had built the Sylve Empire. In fact, it said that earth-shaking changes have taken place! Many elves have learned a power called witchcraft, which is apparently from the human world of another continent!" Olanca said to his friend.

"Can they deal with the horrible monsters?" the friend asked.

"There should be no problem!" Olanca said the words, but didn't sound very certain.

After all, the horrible monsters filled the Moonlight Elves with terror! This was understandable, as the large group of white eye spiders lived in groups in the underground caves of the Moonlight Forest, not to mention their being huge and possessing extraordinary powers!

The most terrifying thing was that they hunted the Moonlight Elves for food. In fact, a large number of Moonlight Elves had already become food on their tables! If this continued, the Moonlight Elves would surely have to flee their beloved homeland.

With the continuous emergence of extraordinary forces, more and more magical beasts appeared. Many variants of magical beasts even came ashore from the sea!

If the Moonlight Elves could not learn some extraordinary powers in order to protect themselves, they would eventually die out. Moreover, within the Silver Moon Forest, there was the Tree of Life of the Moonlight Elves, which they couldn't give up!

So, Olanca not only went to ask for help from the Sylve Empire, but he also sought to understand how the Sylve Empire had become so powerful, especially as that related to this new witchcraft he had been hearing so much about!

After a long journey, Olanca arrived in the Sylve Empire. At present, he had only a dozen elves with him.

All of a sudden, loud sounds were heard from the distance...

"Magical beasts!" Olanca shouted. "Look, there are two magical beasts fighting up ahead!"

They looked and saw a huge Ancient War Tree rising up from the ground. Its roots were like giant steel thighs, and it was fighting a horrible lion-like flying magical beast!

Looking at the scene more carefully, they saw that a wizard in a white robe was on the top of the Ancient War Tree, controlling it to attack the magic beast. As both sides fought fiercely, dust swirled in the air and the lights of various extraordinary forces flashed.

The lights deeply scarred the beast. Finally, the beast could only turn around and flee.

At this time, the wizard who were controlling the Ancient War Tree came to them and asked, "You are not from this village, so why are you here? Also, you must be careful of the magic beasts!"

Olanca looked at the tree and the elf wizard. He was in awe of the huge tree and its strong force.

"We are Moonlight Elves from the Silver Moon Forest. I have brought letters from the elders for Her Majesty Wendy, the Queen of the Sylve Empire!" Olanca said, while holding out the letters.

The wizard reached out and saw the letters in Olanca's hand. He then nodded and said, "Come on, I will take you to the nearest town, then someone will take you to the Elf Forest!"

Then, one by one, they stepped onto the tree, which then began walking, using its its roots as feet. Just a single one of its step could cover a distance of 120 yards! Soon, they passed across a large area of forest, making the Moonlight Elves gasp in shock.

"Is this the power of wizards?" one of the Moonlight Elves asked.

The closer they got to the heart of the Sylve Empire, the more amazed Olanca and other Moonlight Elves became. Here, they could see all kinds of novel witchcraft props and alchemy products. Along the way, the roads were broad and paved, and there were posts and carriages, as well as letter crows that were sending letters for elves and wizards!

Oranca also saw elves enslaving witchcraft slaves in their mines. Smooth tracks were laid on the ground, and exotic foods were ripe at least three-fourths of the year!

Moreover, there were libraries in every elf town. In fact, there were so many books and advanced pamphlets of knowledge, it was beyond Olanca's imagination!

After arriving in the Forest of Life, all of the Moonlight Elves stood with their jaws agape. The elf guards of the Sylve Empire had already gotten used to it long ago.

"My God! Is this the city of the gods?" one of the elves couldn't help but wonder aloud.

What they saw before them was a city that resembled a beautiful garden. Trees lined the roads, which were paved with marble slabs, and layers of beautiful buildings encircled the central Tree of Life. At the root of the tree was the Lake of Life, which reflected the blue sky and white clouds above it.

There were many witchcraft slaves and Pipi Elves in the city, as well as ten huge Ancient War Trees, which surrounded the whole city and connected numerous boundaries. The traces of witchcraft application could be seen everywhere in the city, including such things as groundwater canals, waterways, and the continuous production of various alchemy products in alchemy workshops.

At that was just the beginning! Although it could not be called a city of witchcraft just yet, it was advancing constantly. All of these things greatly impressed Olanca, who asked in awe, "Is this really the Sylve Empire? What made them change it so dramatically?"
