Chapter 363 The Princess’ Coming of Age Ceremony
……
……
……
In the magical world, to the north of the Crescent Forest, there is the orc tribe.
The tribe was very lively tonight. The orcs gathered around the bonfire and ate barbecue. It was not clear what kind of animal meat it was, but it was roasted black. But with their cooking skills, the meat of any animal can probably be grilled to the same appearance.
"Brothers, let's enjoy this delicious meat today!" The leader of the orc tribe shouted, holding up a large piece of meat leg with bones in his hand.
"The leader is mighty!!!" all the orcs shouted in unison. The orcs were pushing and shoving, and some even fought over a piece of good meat, making "bang" and "bang" sounds, and the scene was a bit chaotic.
However, at this moment, a black shadow quickly passed over the tribe. The orcs noticed this abnormal situation, put down the barbecue in their hands, and then looked in the direction of the shadow.
The shadow circled in the sky for several times, and then suddenly fell to the ground. The sand was immediately blown up, and the strong wind carrying the sand blew the flames of the campfire sideways.
The orcs curiously looked in the direction where the shadow landed, and saw that after the sand and dust gradually dispersed, a tall, majestic man with a ferocious face came out.
"Who?" the orc closest to the man yelled at him. The man didn't answer, but walked forward slowly.
"Drink!" Seeing that the other party was unkind, the orc immediately dropped the barbecue in his hand, picked up the blunt knife next to him, and slashed at the man. But before the blade struck, the man waved his hand, and the orc immediately flew backwards as if he had been hit hard, and fell to the ground seriously injured.
The other orcs were immediately shocked. Someone is actually looking for trouble? And in the territory of our orcs?
Everyone immediately refused and picked up their weapons and attacked the man head-on. But the man still just stamped his feet lightly, and all the orcs fell backward. At the same time, powerful demonic energy emerged from the man's body, making him extremely cruel.
"Vito, the welcome ceremony you and your tribe gave me was really nice." The man said coldly.
The orc leader Vito finally recognized the man's identity at this time, and immediately half-knelt in front of the man respectfully: "Oh, Mr. Augustus!!"
"Well, yes, it's me." August nodded contemptuously and said.
"Why did Lord Augustus suddenly visit our tribe?" Vito raised his head, looked at Augustus, and asked.
When the other orcs saw that their leaders had such respect for the man named August, they immediately dropped their swords and clubs and saluted August.
"Okay, there's no need for this." August glanced at the orcs around him and said, and then looked at Vito in front of him: "I came to find you, naturally I have something for you to do."
"Sir, please speak." Although Vito was the leader of the orc tribe, he showed a humble posture in front of Augustus. After all, he knew very well who was standing behind August, it was the Demon Lord. Even without the support of the Demon Lord, August's own strength is still very fearful to Vito.
"Recently, the seal on my king has become looser and looser. The great cause of breaking the throne cannot be delayed. The throne needs you to do something for him." Augustus said lightly.
"Master Demon Lord needs us? That means...the demon clan is about to rise again?" Vito looked up at August and said.
"Yes, the orcs used to be close partners of our demons. Since the throne was sealed, our demons have declined slightly, and you orcs must have been suppressed and your life is difficult, right?" Augustus said.
"Yup!"
"that is!!"
"Ho ho ho!!!"
August's words immediately resonated with the orcs, who immediately let out an angry roar.
"However, as long as you wait another one or two years, your hard days will come to an end." Augustus raised his voice and said loudly: "My king is about to break the seal. When my king breaks the seal, this will be it. The day when the magic world surrenders! At that time, you orcs can also release the grievances you have suffered for hundreds of years."
"Lord Augustus is mighty!!!"
"Hoohoho!!!"
The orcs were immediately excited and picked up the swords, guns and clubs on the ground, raised them above their heads, and waved them.
"Lord Augustus, so what exactly does Lord Demon Lord need us to do?"
"In the Crescent City of the Crescent Forest, those elves have been guarding a treasure, a holy object, for hundreds of years. If we can get it, it will definitely add another boost to my king's great cause of breaking the seal." Augu Si said in a low voice.
"That treasure is the life crystal. If you can get it and use it to inject the majestic life force in the crystal into my king's body, my king's power will definitely be restored to a large extent."
Augustus clenched his fists as he spoke.
"My king needs this crystal. We could have relied on our demons to do this, but now our demons are too weak. So the throne needs your help."
"Lord Demon Lord...needs us to help him snatch the crystal from the elf's hands?"
"That's right." August nodded: "To be precise, you assisted me, helped me break through the Crescent City, and helped me win the crystal."
"This is also a good opportunity for you to be loyal to Lord Demon Lord. Of course, you can also refuse, but this behavior will be regarded as betrayal. After my king breaks the seal, the traitors will also be liquidated. , and you probably don’t know the consequences of betraying my king.”
Augustus put his hands behind his back and said calmly.
His words were so cold that the orc leader in front couldn't help but shudder. If the Demon Lord wanted to liquidate them, it would be easy to kill all their tribes.
"Lord Augustus, we are naturally very willing to serve Lord Demon Lord. However, those guys in Crescent Forest are not ordinary people. It may be difficult for our brothers to complete the task of destroying the city alone." Wei. Tuo said.
"Don't worry, you will get the support of the demons. I have already started preparing my monster army. At that time, you only need to act as the vanguard to consume part of the strength of the Crescent City defenders, and then I will lead the monster army to defeat it in one fell swoop. City." Augustus said.
"Of course, your benefits are indispensable. After the city is broken, you can freely plunder in the city. Treasures, gold and silver, and your favorite women, as long as you grab them, they will be yours." Augustus sneered. He said: "I know you have been coveting those elven women for a long time."
"Ho ho ho ho!!!" Hearing this, the orcs in the tribe became even more excited and started stamping their feet and stepping on the floor.
"Since we have Lord Augustus as our support, we are naturally willing to provide services to Lord Demon Lord." Vito said: "When will we act?"
"There's no rush. You should make good preparations for the siege in the past two days. I will inform you when the time comes. When our two armies merge, Crescent City will be within easy reach!"
……
After leaving the Crescent Temple, Lin Sirius returned to his room, but his mood was a little complicated.
In the temple just now, Elf King Aitras told him a lot of secrets about the Life Crystal, which also allowed him to learn more about this treasure.
The Life Crystal is a sacred object that has been guarded by the elves of the Crescent Forest for hundreds of years. This crystal has a long history. Its birth can be traced back thousands of years, and it is a treasure from the same batch as the rainbow gem.
This life crystal even participated in the last battle to encircle and suppress the sealed demon five hundred years ago. This crystal was once the property of an inheritor. At that time, the life crystal was not called a life crystal.
After the Demon King was sealed, the rainbow gem was divided into six parts and scattered throughout the magic world, while the life crystal was left in the Crescent Forest as a sacred object. Later, hundreds of years passed, and the crystal absorbed the majestic life force in the forest, which gave it its current name.
The power this crystal holds is awe-inspiring. The Life Force heals all types of damage, whether physical or magical. But this powerful force cannot be used casually, otherwise it will have disastrous consequences.
Therefore, in order to prevent the crystal from falling into the hands of evil people, the elves of Crescent Forest have guarded it for generations. The ones who bear this responsibility are the princes and princesses of the past generations, which is today's Alanna.
Now Lin Tianlang also completely understood why Sherry's father Nacle told him that the responsibility on Sherry's shoulders was heavier than he thought. The princess is the guardian of the life crystal, and Sherry is the guardian of the princess, and rounded off is also the guardian of the crystal. This responsibility is not unimportant.
However, what Lin Sirius still felt a little confused about was why the Elf King told him this. This is the secret of the elves, and I am not an elf, so what is the purpose of telling myself?
……
……
Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Sirius had already stayed in Crescent City for more than a week. Four or five days have passed since the hunting competition. During these days, what Lin Tianlang did every day was to continue to get familiar with this elven city.
During this time, Lin Tianlang also learned a lot about elves, such as their education. Archery is a necessary skill for every elf, it is their tradition. All elves must learn archery from birth. Of course, not everyone needs to be as good as Sherry, but at least everyone is a master and can defeat themselves.
In the Crescent City, the elves will not learn the magic that follows the rules of the magic school. They have their own spells. Many of these spells were integrated into their archery skills to launch powerful arrow moves.
Of course, some elves will go to magic schools to study. Learning formal magic will definitely not be useless.
This morning, Lin Tianlang woke up very early. The city is very lively, but the royal area is even more lively. Various decorations were hung everywhere, as if welcoming some important festival.
Today is indeed an important day, and Lin Tianlang is not unaware of it. Today is the princess's coming-of-age ceremony. Yesterday, he received an invitation from Queen Esta personally, inviting him to attend the princess' coming-of-age ceremony.
"It's so lively... Let's go out and see what's going on..." After taking care of himself, Lin Sirius opened the door and left the room.
