Chapter 82: Chapter 82: The Relic to Save the World
2/6
Nazha surrendered.
The elves one after another completely gave up their resistance.
No matter which race or civilization, survival is the first element.
In fact, in the history of the elves, there is no lack of precedent for surrendering to the demons.
But the result was very tragic.
The elves who surrendered were all sent to the camp of the Wicked Demons the night they surrendered.
When they came out again, although they were still in the shape and body of elves, their souls and wills had long since disappeared, and there was no difference from the walking dead.
They were not elves, but magical slave with the appearance of elves.
The bloody historical lesson warned the elves that even if they died in battle, they must not surrender to the demon race, otherwise, the only thing waiting for them was to be brainwashed.
So, Nazha did indeed lead the elves to surrender now.
But the object of her surrender was not the demon race.
It was Reji.
This elf elder felt a higher level of "Nature" fate protection from Reji.
This can be proved by the fact that little Lofu was so close to Reji.
Infant elves are particularly sensitive to this aspect and will not be wrong.
Although Nazha was bewildered by this, it might be a kind of prophecy and hint. The elves have always believed in such enlightenment.
Of course, the natural fate is only one aspect.
Reji's actions towards the elves during the entire campaign also convinced Nazha and shook her.
First of all, although most of the elves have lost their combat power, their actual damage was not much.
In fact, the vast majority of elves were only drained of their power by Eris's "Blood and Flesh Domain", and did not suffer any substantial injury.
This also applies to those elf children who were caught and brought back on the back of the skeleton dragon.
The children were extremely frightened, but there were no traces of injury on their bodies.
Especially, Nazha did not see the brainwashing of the Wicked Demons that she deeply hated and despised, which is secondary.
As for the last thing...
Nazha took a deep breath.
"Why did you save me?"
The surrendered woman asked Reji.
This Demon King in front of her forcibly helped her withdraw from the sacrificial state of "Spirit of Nature" in the end, which made absolutely no sense.
If the Demon King's purpose was to control the elf tribe...
The elder Nazha, who had the most prestige among the elves, died in her own forbidden secret magic, which was undoubtedly the best choice for the Demon King.
But Reji did not do that.
'Why?'
Seeing Nazha standing upright now, even if she had surrendered, she still had to stand up to surrender and maintain the noble posture of an elf with one hand covering her chest, Reji laughed.
He looked up and down and carefully examined the woman Infront of him.
Reji didn't know how old Nazha was.
But to be called an elder, she must not be young.
However, the characteristic of the elves was that unless it was the last few years of their lives, their bodies would not age rapidly.
Otherwise, before this, the elves' faces would not have many signs of aging.
At least from Reji's human aesthetic and perspective, Nazha still looked very graceful, and time had not left wrinkles and old age on the elder, but rather like a vintage wine, accumulating more and more fullness, like a ripe peach.
Reji compared Nazha and Vielsia in his mind.
The elf princess was called a fresh and young girl, which was indeed true, at least from the aspect of physical development.
So.
Reji finally stopped his gaze on Nazha's chest.
The elder immediately showed a mocking expression.
As if to say.
'Is that it?'
She still thought that this new Demon King would be different.
'But in the end, aren't all Demon Kings the same?'
Many years have passed.
And just like in the days of the Black Beast Corps, it was all low-level, vulgar, and cheap foolish desires.
The stern-looking Nazha was more and more excited in her heart.
The more the Demon King humiliated her, the more she did some expedient things, the more it proved that the Demon King was all the same.
'A Demon King?'
'He is just a horny orangutan'
'We did not lose'
'We won!'
Nazha almost wrote all her thoughts on her face, immersing herself in the spiritual victory.
And the elves seemed to have no feeling about this, but from an outsider's perspective, Reji translated Nazha's expression at this moment as "come at me."
There might even be an additional "disgust" filter with a sense of contrast.
'Very well'
Reji understood a little why the disgrace of the Black Beast Corpse had happened in those days.
"Dian, take out the thing inside her," Reji commanded, pulling Nazha back from her "the elves didn't lose" spiritual world. At first, she was stunned, but she quickly reacted, thinking that they wouldn't even give her the chance to resist.
Without giving Nazha a chance to resist, a beam of magical power shot out from the Sorcerer's raven staff and surged into the body of the Elven Elder. Nazha could only clench her teeth and watch as a scroll was stripped from her body, with one corner floating in front of her chest.
Reji walked over and grabbed the corner of the scroll, pulling it completely out of Nazha's chest.
Holding the complete scroll in his hand, Reji quickly shifted his attention away from Nazha, who was panting roughly, her chest heaving due to the magical fluctuations, and her chest were fully exposed. He didn't even give her a second glance.
Holding the scroll in his hand, this time it was no longer a counterfeit.
[Saving Relic(Part Three)]
[A legacy left by the Son of Destiny a thousand years ago, possessing unimaginable power]
The scroll emitted a crystal-clear light in Reji's hand.
Nazha didn't even have time to think about how Reji knew the location of the sealed scroll, and she was now even more shocked by the scroll's reaction to Reji.
As soon as the scroll came into contact with Reji, it slowly opened, emitting an even more dazzling light and constantly flying around and spinning, as if expressing excitement and joy.
Nazha's mind went blank, and she was completely stunned.
It should be noted that this scroll was something that the elves had collected with great difficulty, a relic for saving the world. They had spent hundreds of years studying it and finally managed to repair the damaged relic and figure out its purpose.
However, during this time, the relic had never produced any light for them, even when they used all their magical power to nurture it. The biggest reaction from the scroll was that it could barely merge into their bodies, making it easier to carry and hide.
But now...
The scroll seemed to be getting impatient as Reji didn't react and took the initiative to stick to his palm, bringing itself closer to Reji's hand.
[Home System Unlocked]
[Do you want to activate it now?]
The prompt in Reji's mind repeated.
Only then did Reji come back to his senses.
[Activate]
Reji's fingertips rubbed the page of the scroll, and dazzling light immediately burst from the scroll, enveloping a range of several dozen meters around Reji in an instant.
Upon activation of the scroll, even the four Apostles, including the Sorcerer Dian, were unable to react in time. It was only when they appeared in a strange space the next moment that they came to their senses.
Seeing the extremely anxious four Apostles, Reji raised his hand and gestured for them to relax.
As for the elves who were also brought into this space, they were also very panicked, thinking that the Demon race was going to regret and unleash some evil spell.
Only Nazha was different.
Although she was not acknowledged by the 'Saving Relic' and became its user, she was still its guardian. As soon as she entered this space, she recognized it. This was the space inside the relic!
According to the prophecies of their ancestors, the elves came to the Kingdom of Ilinor to find a human who could be acknowledged by the scroll and become the user of the 'Saving Relict' to seal the Demon race.
And the result...
The prophecy did come true.
They really found, or rather, the user of the scroll found them and successfully activated the 'Saving Relic'.
'But why...'
'Why is the person who activate it.. the Demon King!?'
However, Nazha soon realized that she was wrong.
The young Demon King in front of her was not so much a user of the Saving Relic, but more like its master.
