Chapter 374 – The Elf King’s Head
Chapter 374 – Head of the Elf King
Sol’s eyes moved down to the other two continents.
The continent at the equatorial position should be Iskiper, and the continent located close to the direction of the South Pole should be Nephrite.
Both continents did not have huge mountains like the Wall of Sighs, and did not look like plates split off from the Stat continent.
“Although I can’t see anything unusual on these two continents, but I must travel through these places when I have the chance.”
Although there were no colors, everything in front of him still made Sol’s heart pound.
“I wonder what the other half of the planet looks like.” His heart stirred with some untimely curiosity.
Suddenly, as if it knew Sol’s thoughts, the black and white planet in front of him suddenly sped up its rotation!
Almost in a few seconds, it presented its “back” to Saul.
“Hiss !!!!”
Saul drew in a breath, his entire body stunned in place.
The back of the black and white planet was actually a huge depression.
It was like a whirlpool on the deep sea, constantly sucking seawater into it.
It was also like a black hole in the universe, swallowing everything and returning to darkness forever!
But it’s not quite the same as a black hole.
It explodes.
Just as Saul watched, the interior of the massive depression violently exploded once.
The sea water of the continent was shocked out by the explosion, setting off a tsunami that covered the sky.
The tsunami spread out in rows and rows, heading north on one side and ruthlessly crashing into the huge mountain range at the northern end of the Stat continent.
Although the potential energy of the seawater had been reduced by now, the momentum of its impact on the “Wall of Sighs” still made Saul’s ears ache.
Although he did not hear anything.
The tsunami was heading south, and it looked like it would also hit the continent of Nefret.
Saul couldn’t see that side, and wondered how Nefertiti without the Wall of Sighs was going to cope with this huge tsunami?
But that wasn’t what Sol had to worry about.
What he was worried about now was that a planet with such a huge depression would explode.
Can this planet …… really exist for a long time?
Saul closed his eyes as he felt his worldview take a huge hit.
Tiredness greeted his heart, and all he wanted to do at this point was to quickly fall asleep.
But then, he heard another voice.
“Brother Saul, brother Saul, are you outside?”
Saul’s eyelids, so heavy that they were about to close, snapped open again.
At this time, there was no longer that astral body with a bizarre to terrifying form in front of him, and he was back in that pure white room.
And the voice that called out to him was coming from behind Saul.
He turned, looking for the source of the voice, “Penny, is that you?”
“Brother Saul, I’m here, in the woven painting in front of you!”
Startled, Thor bent his body down and looked at the woven painting in the center of the white throne.
He had seen this woven picture a long time ago, but just because the picture was too small and not that conspicuous, he didn’t look closely at what was on it.
When he leaned down to look at it, he realized that although the top of the woven picture was blurry because of the material, he could vaguely make out what appeared to be a forest and a few golden embroidered threads representing the sunlight penetrating down from the sky.
Upon closer inspection, Saul spotted a bit of silver under one of the large trees.
There was something about that silver color that stood out.
At the very least, this was the only place in the entire picture where silver was used.
“Penny, why are you here? Is this part of the Elven Valley as well?”
The Nightmare Butterfly seemed to have entered a world within a painting!
However, after experiencing the shock just now, Saul had already seen it all by now, and could calmly issue an inquiry. “I’m not here in the Elven Valley. Brother Saul, I’m with the elves.”
“You mean the elves that disappeared from this world, are you really with them?” Saul was beginning to question Penny’s mental state.
Could Penny have been tainted? Should we call her back to the diary?
“Brother Saul, I am not contaminated.” Penny seemed to sense what Saul knew and thought, and hastily spoke out, “But I have something I need your help with right now.”
“What are you doing?”
“I …… am determining the meaning of my existence.”
“……” The topic suddenly became too lofty for Saul to know whether or not to reject Penny.
He thought for a moment, but agreed, “What do you need me to do?”
Penny’s voice leapt up all of a sudden, “Master, can you help the elves recover their stolen treasures?”
Stolen treasures again?
It seems that this item is quite important.
Saul speculated and asked, “The treasure you keep talking about, is it on Kong Sha’s head?”
“……”
Penny’s side was silent for three seconds before suddenly erupting in a sharp voice.
“No way, no way, there’s actually someone putting the Elf King’s head on his own head!”
Penny’s surprise soon infected Saul as well, his mouth slightly open, not knowing which thing he should be surprised by first.
Should he be surprised that such a thing as a king even existed among the elves? Or should he be surprised that elves even had bodies left in the world?
In the end, Saul chose to exclaim, “What the hell is she doing, Konza?”
First she ventured out to listen to the elven whispers, then she defied Heywood to buy the key to the elven valley that Billy was selling, and finally …… even put the elven king’s head on her head!
Saul had once thought that the change in Kongsha’s head had something to do with the elves, but how could he not expect it to be in such a crude way?
After all, although Kong Sha’s face was beautiful, it wasn’t rumored to be so beautiful that it was disorienting.
Penny was also shocked, “Brother Saul, it is imperative that we get the Elf King’s head back and put it here, on the Pure White Throne, so that we can leave the Elf Valley.”
“Is that the only way to leave?” To be honest, as a sorcerer, Saul was afraid that if he got the Elf King’s head, his first reaction would not be to return it here.
Although he had previously shied away from all things elven, now that people had come here and Ann had even almost sacrificed herself for him, it wasn’t his style to just leave empty-handed.
It wasn’t as if he had come here to really save anyone!
Penny immediately understood what Saul meant, she paused and said in a low voice, “Brother Saul, I understand, but I have a trophy here that is more suitable for you than the Elf King’s head. As long as you can return the Elf King’s head to the Pure White Throne, I can convince the elves to open the passageway and allow you to come over and take a look.”
“I guarantee that as long as you come in, even if you just take a look, the gain will be much higher than taking that dangerous Elf King’s head!”
“You have the means to judge that I am not lying to you.”
Saul understood that Penny’s last statement meant that with the binding of the diary, it could not lie to Saul.
Not even if it was misleading.
Saul was silent for a long time and let out a breath.
“It can be. However, the environment here is very special, and I’m not entirely sure I can subdue Kongsa alone, who holds the Elf King’s head. Can you provide me with any assistance from your side?”
“I’m sorry, Brother Saul.” Penny, however, didn’t have any good news for Saul, “I don’t have the means to provide you with an actual boost right now ……
“But I can give you all the remaining Cryptocrystalline Mass in this palace. You can maintain the stability of your spiritual body by continuously absorbing the cryptocrystalline substance. Of course, you can only do so inside the Elven Valley. Outside, you may attract the terrible contamination of the consciousness sandwich.
“This is also the knowledge I only gained here.”
It seemed that the elves inside were unable or unwilling to provide themselves with a boost.
Sol straightened up and thought helplessly.
Who the hell lost the treasure? Shouldn’t they be the ones most anxious?
He clasped his hands to his chest, tapping his fingertips lightly on his arms as he pondered his response.
“Konsa, Mark, Monroe and that Cassillo. The four of them seem to be divided, but since they’ve managed to survive until now, they will definitely unite when necessary. If the other three know that Kongsha’s head is the elf’s treasure …… regardless of whether or not they will actually return this treasure, the binding force that allowed them to act together will surely disappear.”
Sol nodded gently, “This is also my chance!”
Saul: What a horrible world!
