Chapter 412 The Elf Elder and the Secret of the Royal Court

Acot City, the elf settlement,

Li Si looked at the old elf who came in with some curiosity.

He was wearing a white and gold robe, which was like moonlight pouring down. It was made of the top special materials at a glance, and after advanced enchantment, it was equivalent to a high-level magic equipment.

The old elf's face was covered with wrinkles, which were deeply engraved on his face, like ancient bark, recording the vicissitudes of time. His long golden hair was carefully groomed and draped behind him, and his golden eyes were full of traces left by the years.

Elves are long-lived species. Elves like this have lived through countless years and are about to reach the end of their lives.

Generally, elves of this age will stay in the depths of the Elf Forest, quietly waiting for the end to come, waiting for their souls to ascend to the kingdom of the elves.

And this old elf who came in, although old, still has a steady pace, surrounded by a deep magical pressure.

It turned out that he was also a gold-level mage, and his strength was not weak, although not as strong as the Cinderella Valdivia I had seen before.

Li Si knew what was going on and stood aside without saying anything.

Cecil saw the old elf coming in and quickly stood up and bowed.

"Elder, hello!"

The old elf also saw Cecil, frowned slightly and looked a little unhappy, but still said:

"You are Cecil Arce, I didn't expect you to come here so quickly."

Nodding to Cecil, the old elf walked to the armchair and prepared to sit down.

At this moment, the old elf noticed Li Si behind Cecil and was stunned for a while.

"Who is this?"

The old elf was a little unsure and asked hesitantly in an old voice.

"This is Lord Li Si Kane, who protected me all the way from Nelin City to here."

As if thinking of something, Cecil quickly added:

"Lord Li Si once helped an elf and was blessed by the goddess Fenria."

"So that's it."

The old elf looked serious, clenched his left fist on his chest, and bowed slightly to Li Si.

"Mr. Li Si, it's an honor to meet you here."

"May the glory of the goddess Fenria always protect your future!"

"You're welcome."

Li Si was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile.

"What should I call you?"

"I'm Ricardo Ilisere, welcome to visit here."

Ricardo looked at Li Si and said, a smile appeared on his old face that had been stiff all the time.

After a simple greeting, the three of them sat down on the armchairs and enjoyed the exquisite pastries that had been prepared.

Li Si noticed Ricardo's attitude towards him and had an expectation in his heart.

There is no doubt that Ricardo in front of him is an important member of the Ilisere Sun Elf Family, a Sun Elf with pure blood.

From Cecil's previous experience and Ricardo's attitude when he entered the door just now, it can be seen that the Sun Elves of the Ilisere Family seem to be more old-fashioned, a bit like those antiques among human nobles.

For this reason, although the incident has been a long time ago, their attitude towards Cecil is still not very good.

But at the same time, because they respect and believe in the elves, they are really quite nice to Li Si, who is blessed by the goddess of elves.

This has to be said to be a bit of a contrast.

Even Li Si did not expect this to happen, but he did not mind. After all, it was good for him, and he might get more information about the Elf King's Court.

"Elder Ricardo, why did you ask me to come to Akot City?"

After Cecil sat down, she asked Ricardo.

This was what she was wondering about. What happened to make the Sun Elf Family Ilisel so violent?

From the moon elf Daphne who met by chance, she learned that even the Elf King's Court Drano City was closed, which made Cecil feel uneasy.

Especially when she was attacked by the gold-level assassin, the fear in Cecil's heart grew stronger.

It was because Li Si stayed by her side that she felt at ease.

Ricardo did not answer directly, but looked at Li Si hesitantly.

This is a secret of their Ilisel family and even the Elf King's Court. Even if Li Si has been recognized by the goddess Fenria, he is not too confident to tell Li Si these secrets.

Li Si noticed Ricardo's expression. If it was something else, he might have left directly, but not this matter.

This may be closely related to the destruction of the Elf King's Court. He can't miss the opportunity to get follow-up information from Ricardo.

"I heard from Cecil that someone would attack the Sun Elves. This time when we were crossing the Elf Forest, we also encountered a gold-level assassin who was ready to assassinate Cecil, but I stopped him."

"There is actually a gold-level assassin who is ready to assassinate Cecil?"

Ricardo's face changed, and he could no longer care about other things. He quickly looked at Cecil:

"You were attacked by someone, by whom?"

Cecil was a little nervous and looked at Li Si without saying anything.

"No, the gold-level assassin was killed by me, and he didn't say anything before he died."

"Is that so?"

Ricardo's face was a little gloomy when he heard this, as if he remembered something important.

"Your Excellency Li Si, did you notice anything unusual at that time?"

After thinking for a moment, Riccardo looked at Li Si and asked.

"Excuse my offense, because this matter is really important to our Elisir family?"

"Can you let me know why you care so much about this matter?"

"Why on earth did those people attack Cecile? Has the same thing happened before?"

Facing Li Si's inquiry, Riccardo was silent for a moment, seeming to be debating whether to tell Li Si these secrets.

Finally, Riccardo held his right hand tightly, his wrinkled face full of seriousness.

"Your Excellency Li Si, you are a person recognized by the goddess Fenriya, and you have also intervened in Cecil's affairs."

"I won't hide these secrets from you anymore, but these secrets are related to the safety of the Elisir family. I hope you will not tell other people these secrets after listening to them."

Seeing Riccardo's serious look, Li Si didn't pay attention and nodded to make a commitment.

Riccardo sighed and leaned back on the wicker chair. He was silent for a while and said as if it was difficult to start:

"That was half a year ago. A shocking case occurred in the Elf King's Court."

"A member of the Elisir family disappeared, and there was no news for more than ten days. No one cared about it at first, until someone later went to visit the man and found him dead at home."

"Is there something wrong with the elf's death?"

Li Si nodded and asked softly.

"Yes."

Riccardo looked ugly and continued:

"When the elf was discovered, his face was horrified, as if he had faced something extremely terrifying. At the same time, his body was shriveled, and all the blood in his body had disappeared."

"All the blood is gone"

Li Si murmured to himself, thinking of the [Original Blood Crystal] he got from the gold-level assassin's storage ring. It seemed that the same force should have taken action, targeting the blood in the bodies of the sun elves.

"What do you mean, the same thing happened again later?"

"Um."

Riccardo nodded and said gloomily:

"After all, it was the death of a Sun Elf, and the cause of death was unclear. Of course, the Elf Royal Court had to investigate it carefully at that time."

"But no matter what, we haven't found the person who did it, and we haven't found any clues."

Riccardo had a frustrated look on his face, and Li Si also noticed it.

However, the Ilisel family, as the ones who control the Elf Royal Court, are naturally the most powerful force in the city. In the Elf Royal Court, there are people who dare to attack the sun elves of the Iliseul family to extract their blood. This is simply putting the Ilyseer family's face on Completely trampled underfoot and ravaged.

"After that incident, the Pompeii patriarch summoned most of the forces of the Elf Royal Court to search, but in the end they returned without success."

The elf elder in front of him said helplessly. He was one of the participants at the time and was also angry about it.

Everyone in the Ilisel family is an extremely precious being. The sun elves are equivalent to the high-ranking royal family in the Elf Kingdom. Who would have thought that there would be such a bold person who would take action against the people of the Ilisel family.

However, the Elisir family has no solution yet, and no clues have been found no matter what means they use.

Even if a legendary powerhouse takes action, it will be fruitless, as if the elf committed suicide.

"Just one month later, everyone in the Elf Court was about to give up, and a similar case suddenly appeared."

"He is also a descendant of the Elisir family. When he was found, he was hung on a big tree beside the road to the Elf King's Court. Likewise, all the blood in his body disappeared."

"After that, the same thing happened many times, and the person who did it was never caught."

"Are the people who attack the Sun Elves doing it for the blood of the Sun Elves?"

Listening to Riccardo's description, Li Si nodded.

If this is the case, then no wonder the Elisir family reacted so exaggeratedly.

Although the Ilisel family is a sun elf family, due to the special nature of their bloodline, there are not many members in the entire family, and they are even considered rare.

The mysterious deaths of many sun elves were simply a provocation to the Ilisel family, and they also greatly affected the strength and future of the Ilisel family.

"Not sure."

Riccardo's face didn't look good, but he still answered.

"If someone really wants to get the Sun Elf bloodline of the Ilisel family, there is no need to kill so many people."

"What's more, isn't he afraid of being discovered by us?"

Riccardo said angrily, his face turned red unlike an old man.

It seems that the occurrence of this series of attacks has indeed made the Elisir family very angry.

There have been cases in the past where outsiders wanted to acquire Sun Elf blood. This was not unusual in the history of the Elf Kingdom.

Not only the alien races, but even the interior of the Elf Kingdom is not monolithic. There are also people who covet the legendary Sun Elf bloodline.

It is for this reason that the Elisir family was not very panicked when they discovered the first incident, but as the situation worsened uncontrollably, they eventually became highly nervous.

The most important thing is that the mastermind behind the incident has never been found, which gives the Ilisel family a huge headache.

This is a very unmagical thing. In the Elven Court, the headquarters of the Ilisel family, where there are also legendary powerhouses, people were allowed to kill several sun elves openly without any trace being found.

This was simply unthinkable before.

"Then why do you appear here and ask Cecile to come here as well?"

Li Si asked next, but he already had a rough estimate in his mind.

"Because we also received a summons later that the sun elves traveling in the family were also killed and deprived of their bloodline."

"Although that sun elf is young, he also has gold-level strength."

"If he has no power to resist, then everyone outside the family will be in an unsafe situation."

Riccardo said in a deep voice, and then looked at Cecile.

"Cecile, I understand your affairs very clearly. Let's put aside the past rights and wrongs for now. The family cannot tolerate any more members being killed by others."

"I asked you to come here for your safety. After all, it is too dangerous for you to be alone in Nelin City. The family is preparing to recall all members who are outside and return to the Elf King's Court."

"The family's strength has been dispersed to the traveling members. I originally thought that your appearance was different from that of the sun elves, and the manpower was quite tight, so I couldn't arrange for manpower to escort you."

"But I didn't expect someone to attack you halfway. This was my mistake."

As he spoke, Riccardo took out an emerald green leaf from his body, with a few dewdrops shining dreamily on it.

As soon as this young leaf appeared in the room, vitality instantly filled the entire room. A faint natural breath spread, and Li Si felt his body relax a little.

Feeling the vigorous vitality and faint pressure on the young leaves, Li Si was a little speechless.

Isn't this really what he thought?

Cecile, who was on the side, was already stunned. She felt that her entire body was responding to the power fluctuations on the young leaves.

Before Cecile could react, Riccardo handed her the young leaves in his hand.

"This is a talisman made by [Forest Prayer] Lord Nemancha. It has legendary level of protective power."

"You have to keep it by my side, understand?"

"Isn't this a little too precious?"

Cecile looked at the jasper-like young leaves and shook her head in surprise.

In her impression, the people in the Elisir family were all stubborn old stubborns who strongly opposed the union of her father and mother, and their attitude towards her was not much better.

Some people even think that her existence has tarnished the Sun Elf bloodline of the Elisir family.

Although Elder Riccardo's attitude in front of her was a bit stiff, he was already much better. What's more, he taught her such a legendary prop.

This made Cecile unacceptable for a while.

Li Si was not surprised. Although legendary-level props were precious, they were not inaccessible to the legendary Ilyseer family.

The most important thing is that the situation has now deteriorated to an extent that the Ilyser family cannot bear. The death of any family member is an extremely tragic loss.

Even Cecile is the same.

That's why they pay such a price.

Riccardo put the young leaves directly into Cecile's hands, turned to look at Lis, and said sincerely:

"Your Excellency Li Si, after hearing what I said, you should understand how much the Elisir family attaches great importance to this matter now, right?"

"This is a matter of life and death for the family!"

"And now, you are the only person who has met and fought against the attacker. On behalf of the Elisir family, I must ask you, can you tell me the information about that person?"

Li Si looked at Riccardo who bowed slightly after finishing speaking, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

To be honest, even if he was protected by the elf goddess Fenriya, he would not let an elder with a high position in the elf king's court act like this.

This shows how embarrassed the Elisir family has been forced to be now.

"I don't know much about anything else, but what is certain is that the attacker is human."

"Humanity?"

Riccardo furrowed his sparse eyebrows, finding it difficult to accept.

Most elves have a bad view of humans. After all, the existence of the Elf Slave Catching Group is indeed a dark history that cannot be erased.

But human forces were able to attack the sun elves in the Elven Court without leaving any clues.

No matter how you think about it, it is too outrageous. Even the churches of the gods of the human pantheon do not have the power to do such a thing in the Elven Court.

Rather than talking about humans, Riccardo preferred to believe that it was a party within the elves that took action, but hired human professionals to attack members of the Elisir family outside the Elven King's Court.

Li Si looked at Riccardo's expression and guessed that the other person might not believe what he said.

After thinking about it, Li Si decided to reveal some information:

"When I was chasing the assassin, the aura of the abyss appeared on that man."

"What?"

"Abyssal breath?"

Riccardo's eyes widened and he looked at Li Si in disbelief, and even stood up from the wicker chair.

Abyss Demon?

Are they involved in this matter?

Riccardo was confused for a moment. Neither he nor the rest of the Ilisel family had thought of this possibility.

Cecile on the side also looked at Li Si in surprise. She didn't know the news either.

"Sir Li Si, are you sure?"

Ricardo looked at Li Si and asked, his shaking hands showed that he was not calm in his heart.

"Of course, I can be sure that it was an assassin who had completely accepted the power of the abyss, and I will definitely not mistake the aura of corruption."

Li Si nodded and said with certainty.

". Sir Li Si, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that this news is too unexpected."

Ricardo stood up, paced back and forth in front of Li Si, and finally said to Li Si:

"Sir Li Si, can you please wait here for a while, I must now pass this information back to the Elf King's Court."

"If possible, I would even like to ask you to go to the Elf King's Court with me."

Looking at Ricardo's pleading eyes, Li Si was a little hesitant for a while.

Going to the Elf King's Court at this time?

Isn't that going to die?
