Xu Shuo looked at her lazily: "If you have something to say, tell me quickly, but I don't have much time to spend here with you."
The ice elf struggled and hesitated for a long time, looking at him with pale eyes: "I can tell you all this, but I also hope that you will not destroy the last bloodline of our clan, otherwise we will keep you here no matter what!"
She didn't use any force in the last sentence, but it contained an almost extreme sense of chilling.
Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows slightly: "As long as it doesn't harm the Holy See of Light, just say so."
Although they came all the way here just to completely solve the problem of elves.
But it was rare to encounter a plot point, and I had to fight hard to get it back, so a few people didn't mind stopping to learn about it.
As for solving the problem of future troubles.
It's all here anyway, and it won't be too late to solve it after they understand it.
So the three of them pretended to listen carefully.
The Ice Elf then said in a deep voice: "After the battle a thousand years ago, our Ice Elf clan was cursed by the Dragon Clan. Our original lifespan of a hundred years was reduced to only half because of the curse."
The lifespan of elves and humans is actually almost the same, only a few decades longer than humans, and they basically don't age.
But in contrast, their offspring birth rate is very low.
Whatever you gain, you will lose.
However, what happened to the elves even more tragically was that because of the resentment of the dragon clan for starting a war with them, they broke into the elves' holy land and left behind a curse inherited from their bloodline.
There were few heirs to begin with, and the already weak bloodline after the war made it even worse.
But actually, the more important reason is not this.
"We ice and snow elves have always believed in the goddess of dawn. She has protected us from the wind and snow, and also given us the power of the wind and snow."
Speaking of this, the ice elf paused.
Then he continued hesitantly: "This floating island is also condensed by the power of faith. It can resist the invasion and harm from the outside world and provide us with the strength needed for our blood. The Dawn of Faith is not only for seeking shelter,
She has become a legacy of our ice and snow elves."
As she said this, Han Hu still looked hesitant, as if she was worried about something.
Xu Shuo had already realized something, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Has your Elf Sacred Tree been integrated with Dawn Faith?"
After the words fell, the ice and snow elf looked at him with some fear.
"It seems that's the case." Xu Shuo smiled.
"You...you have already guessed..."
The ice elf looked a little bitter: "Yes, the Elf Sacred Tree has been integrated with the Dawn Faith. But the power of faith is being irreversibly eliminated. The faith of our elves alone is no longer enough to maintain the Dawn Faith, let alone maintain it.
In this holy land, we can only..."
Spiritual faith can no longer satisfy Dawn.
In order to pass on their bloodline, the ice and snow elves can only give their bodies to the power of faith in order to maintain the existence of the holy tree of elves.
The holy tree of elves is integrated with faith, so faith is the water channel that fills it.
The faith is there, the sacred tree is there.
On the contrary, if there is no faith, the sacred tree will wither.
If the Elf Sacred Tree withers, it means that the Ice and Snow Elves will no longer be able to give birth to new heirs. Now that the curse of the Dragon Clan has been imposed on them, they are already facing extinction.
"The one who left the Holy Land for the human continent was Catalina's sister. She was a member of the previous generation of Dawn, and her lifespan has come to an end."
The ice elf whispered: "She has no choice but to go to the human continent. Our elven clan has declined, and now only the Dawning Execution can survive in the world. If there is no new power of faith to replenish it, the holy tree will wither completely.
At that time, our consciousness that relies on faith will completely disappear, and the ice and snow elves will no longer exist in this world..."
By the end, her voice was extremely sad and desperate.
For thousands of years the elves have tried various methods.
However, nothing could prevent this result from coming.
They could only watch the holy tree decline day by day, while the tribesmen around them devoted themselves to the holy tree one by one, turning into the power of faith to nurture it with their bodies.
However, even this cannot be stopped.
Just like a road that has its end point and result marked, they have no chance to turn back, and there is no fork in the road that can change the result. They can only walk towards the cliff ahead step by step in despair.
This feeling of hopelessness is painful and torturous.
The ice and snow elves are not crazy because of this, they are just obsessed with the blood inheritance and the continuation of the race.
Re-enter the human continent.
It's their last little hope.
Xu Shuo thought thoughtfully: "So you want to gain humanity's faith again?"
The ice elf lowered his head and said nothing.
Apparently this has been acquiesced.
Although human beings do not live long, their number is in the hundreds of millions, and the birth rate of offspring is extremely high.
The power of faith they generate is extremely powerful.
After listening for a long time, Zuo Fang couldn't help but chime in and complain: "Only her? Thousands of years ago, so many of you and so many Warcraft failed, and now you want to do it again. Isn't this a daydream?"
Being ridiculed like this, the ice and snow elf, who was originally depressed, couldn't hold back and glared at him displeased.
"What, you're still not convinced?" Zuo Fang sneered.
"This is our last chance. The Holy See of Light wants to seek the kingship of mankind, so this time we can use the imperial royal family of mankind." The ice elf pursed his lips and said.
"...?"
Zuo Fang was stunned for a moment and typed a question mark.
He subconsciously looked at the people next to him, but the two people next to him had facial paralysis.
If the Silver Duke didn't speak, he could directly merge with Feng Xue.
When Xu Shuo heard this, he just said calmly: "The ice and snow elves can't escape the world, how do you know what's going on in the human world?"
The ice elf glanced at him: "It's okay to tell you now. Before the war of faith began thousands of years ago, the high priest of our tribe had already predicted it, and it still remains today."
Zuo Fang was a little surprised: "You can predict?!"
Seeing him like this, the ice and snow elf looked vaguely arrogant, with a trace of arrogance already appearing on his face.
Even if the elves face extinction.
They still have their own pride!
Then Zuo Fang clicked his tongue again and shook his head: "What a pity. You could have predicted the beginning, but not the result. Otherwise, how could we have lost so miserably a thousand years ago~"
The ice elf's face froze.
She didn't refute.
Because this is true - the results cannot be predicted, this is really a fact.
But she still gave Zuo Fang a hard look.
She then looked at Xu Shuo and said: "I have said everything that needs to be said. We actually have no hope for this trip to the human continent. I only beg you to let go of the last bloodline of our elves."
After saying this, the ice elf looked at him nervously and expectantly, as if waiting for judgment to come.
The three of them now understood what was going on. Xu Shuo glanced at them, and then they walked aside to whisper.
…
Zuo Fang immediately asked enthusiastically: "How about we just go chop down the tree?"
Xu Shuo, who was about to speak, paused and glanced at him.
Duke Silver also paused and glanced at him.
Left: "???"
Zuo Fang's head was full of questions: "Don't look away, can we waste more saliva?"
Xu Shuo smiled and said: "Rather than just chop down the tree and welcome a wave of elves before their death, why not just convince them directly and let the remaining one be used by us?"
