Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 441 Hunting Kavituwa
As for the fact that the Elven race is now on the verge of extinction, that's a story for another time. It's because the Elven race lacked powerful protectors and their extraordinary characteristics were too appealing.

Vampires, for example, live quite well because Lilith secretly protects them.

As for the giants' poor performance, it can only be said that the God of War was not human.

"But why are you helping us?" the elven singer Shatas asked again, her expression serious and her gaze sharp. "What do you want from us?"

"Couldn't I just be trying to do a good deed?" Rowling smiled, his smile innocent and cheerful. "Like when I rescued you from the world of the book, I didn't want anything from you!"

The elven singer, Shatas, remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "I believe you are a good person, but I don't trust the power behind you. I don't believe a power would help the elves for no reason."

Huh, he actually believed it... Rowling blinked, then smiled and said, "Alright, if you really need an answer, then it's probably me, or rather, the forces behind me need you to check and balance the Church of Storms."

That's the absolute truth.

Putting everything else aside, with the elves as a medium, Roland would have had a chance to summon the Elf King!

This is the Old Pigeon Special Forces!

The elven singer, Shatas, was visibly taken aback upon hearing this. Then she frowned and said, "Are you lying to me? Perhaps the elves of the past could have done this, but the elves of today..."

At this point, the elven singer Shatas paused, ultimately refraining from mentioning that the elven race was in such dire straits that if even a high-ranking member of the Storm Church were to emerge from the Sequence 3 ranks, they might be completely wiped out.

This is rather cruel to Shatas, the elven singer who once lived during the glorious era of the elves.

“I’m not lying. Of course you can’t do this now, but that may not be the case in the future.” Roland said with a smile, his pace unhurried. “Besides, I don’t really expect you to fight against the Storm Church. You are just a backup, a backup that I can support if my teacher falls out with the Storm Church one day in the future.”

“The Stormpath is very useful, both in daily life and in combat, so we need a backup to ensure that even if we fall out with the Storm Church in the future, we will not lack extraordinary individuals in this area,” Roland added.

These words made the elven singer, Shatas, look slightly unpleasant. Of course, she understood what Rolin meant. He was obviously currently in a cooperative relationship with Storm, and choosing to support the elves was a way to maintain balance and provide backup should they ever turn against each other in the future.

"...What if I refuse?" The elven singer, Shatas, took a deep breath, suppressing her agitation, and asked, "What would you do?"

“I won’t do anything,” Roland answered bluntly. “I won’t slaughter the elves, but I won’t stop the Church of Storms from taking any action against you.”

To put it bluntly, it means letting the elves fend for themselves.

Given the current state of the Elven race, even without Rolin's intervention, they may face extinction in a few years.

The elven singer, Shatas, pursed her lips, her eyes filled with struggle, as if she were agonizing over something. After a moment, she looked at Rolin and said, "I cannot make such a decision. The king has fallen, and now only the queen can decide the fate of the elven race."

Hearing this, Roland smiled. He knew that his plan to use the elven singer Shatas to fish for the elven queen had probably succeeded; the former had obviously made contact with the latter.

Roland wasn't surprised. He smiled and said, "I don't mind talking to your queen. If you don't trust me, I don't need your queen to come in person; an avatar or her will is fine." "You can make such a decision?" the elven singer Shatas asked, looking at Roland.

“I can. My position is probably higher than you think. As long as I agree to something, the teacher won’t object,” Rowling said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the elven singer Shatas gave Roland a deep look, but her expression wasn't too surprised, since she had been inquiring about "Jack" before.

The elven singer, Shatas, simply said, "I will report this to the Queen."

“I’m looking forward to talking to Him,” Rolin said with a smile, then, as if remembering something, he added, “Before that, how about we go to another elven ruin and hunt down Kavituwa? Gehrman still needs a Mystic Artifact!”

The elven singer, Shatas, glanced at Roland. Her lips twitched a few times, but she ultimately didn't utter the words, "That is the Queen's property."

The Elf Singer Shatas is not an unreasonable person. Just as in the original story, she would use the "Elf Singer" potion recipe to exchange with Klein for the wine glass that the Elf Queen once used, instead of rudely demanding it from Klein by claiming that "it used to be the Queen's property".

The elven singer Shatas knew very well that thousands of years had passed and these things had long since found new homes. She would collect them as much as possible, but she would no longer take them for granted.

Moreover, since the Queen had given up that part of her characteristics, there must be a deeper reason behind it... The elven singer, Shatas, thought to herself, though she still felt a little sad.

Thousands of years have passed, and the world has changed beyond recognition, making her feel both uncomfortable and alienated.

……

Regardless of what the elven singer Shatas thought, although she didn't directly object, Roland happily led everyone into the ruins after locating the location of Kavituwa.

The interior of the ruins was far from peaceful. The fact that the elven singer Shatas had taken the Book of Calamities had clearly affected Kavituwa, making the sea serpent's condition increasingly unstable, to the point of near collapse.

When Rolin and his companions arrived at the ruins, Kavituwa was venting his madness. Lightning flashed everywhere throughout the ruins, and the mummified corpses of Poseidon followers were also scattered all over the place.

"Wait, brother, is it really okay for us to come here and cause trouble for Kavituva like this?" After passing a streak of lightning, Mobert Zoroaster finally realized a serious problem and couldn't help but ask, "It's Sequence Three, isn't it?"

The information about Kavituwa is not a secret. Anyone who is familiar with the Extraordinary Path, has heard of its reputation, and knows something about the Cult of Poseidon can easily deduce this.

"What are you afraid of? Don't you have an old man with you?" Roland looked at Mobert Zoroaster and said with a smile.

Pales's clone is still inside Mobert Zoroaster at this moment!
“But the old man’s clone here is only Sequence 4!” Mobert Zoroaster was clearly a bit devastated. He said incredulously, “Brother, you’re not expecting the old man to deal with Kavituwa, are you?”

Rowling blinked, deliberately saying, "If I said yes..."
