Chapter 699 Leaves of the Forest

"Is Lord Ross going to search for the other half of his soul?"

"Of course, with an incomplete soul, it won't be long before Harodias can extract all the soul energy here."

"The other person is an elf, and if they're in the Elf Forest now... I'll have to go to the Elf Forest again."

Recently, Celia has gone to the Elf Forest countless times. She's practically explored the whole place, like her own backyard.

"Don't worry, it'll be quick this time."

Celia had already left Phil's meditation area and was walking towards Melina's office.

Ross told her that the divine relic was not fake, but something that was truly of great help to Phil.

Although this was something Haroldias used to enhance and position Phil, it was the real deal.

"Go straight back to your room, take out the key token, and I'll teleport you directly to the target location."

"What is the key token?" Celia paused for a moment, then her body obediently turned and walked towards her house in the camp.

Ross didn't answer, but instead said, "Aren't you curious about who the elf Harodias chose is?"

“Besides Elena… I can’t think of any other elf who has an affinity for the life element.”

"Haroldius did initially want to choose her, but Elena had the blessing of the Elf God, which made her resistant to and shielded from the calls of other gods. So he settled for a less suitable elf from among those elves who had been touched by his life element."

"Life elements that were once tainted by gods... Lord Ross, are you referring to... the elves who were healed at the Temple of Resurrection?"

"Correct."

A figure immediately came to Celia's mind; it was the friendliest elf she had ever met besides Elena.

But she quickly shook her head.

"It shouldn't be Lana, right? Although she's very talented, she's still somewhat lacking compared to Lana..."

"It's her. Do you remember when you accompanied Phil to search for the divine relics, in the first city, Forest Words City, during the battle against the beast tide, the patrol team went missing?"

Ross smiled as he looked at Celia.

With things explained to this extent, even a fool like Celia would understand.

"Lord Ross, are you saying that the patrol team happened to be Lana's patrol team, and then the God of Life and Death pulled her into that subspace, which is why she disappeared?"

Ross nodded.

“Phil was the first person Harodias chose. According to the records he left behind, he originally did not intend to find a second one. However, when the beast tide came, he sensed that Phil was not compatible with the life element at all. Just then, Lana came to the vicinity of the beast tide, and the two resonated through the beast tide. So, when the beast tide teleported over, he took the opportunity to pull Lana over as well.”

"what?"

Celia blinked, a little confused.

"Is it that simple?"

"Ah."

Why is there such a dangerous 'test' on Phil's side?

Ross chuckled, “Haroldias hadn’t recovered back then, so he had no idea how dangerous the trial was. He could only control the intensity of the beast tide, not the sacred tree.”

Does Lana possess any divine relics?

"Of course."

"In other words... Phil needs to pass four trials of beast tides, and then the most dangerous trial under the sacred tree, before he can enter the location of the relic and obtain it, while the other person only needs to be pulled in by the god to get the relic..."

Such differential treatment left Celia speechless.

Phil is clearly a believer in the gods, yet the gods are putting him through this test, giving the green light to an 'outsider' who doesn't believe in them... How should I put it...

Celia's affection for Halodias -20.

Celia didn't say anything bad about Lana; she actually quite liked the elf.

"Because the life element is constantly replenished, but the death element is not, Harodias needs the withered power that the sacred tree has accumulated over the years. Alright, let's not talk about that. Do you remember what that elf named Lana once gave you?"

"Yeah, remember."

Celia took out something Lana had once given her, a crystalline leaf called the Leaf of the Forest.

This leaf is not a tree leaf, but rather carved from some material that Celia is unaware of. It is a beautiful emerald green.

"The Forest Leaf is a unique token that every elf possesses. You can treat it as a companion to the elf. It needs to be formed slowly through the connection and communication between the elf and the elf forest. Each elf can only gather a limited number of Forest Leaves. With a Forest Leaf, you can walk freely in the elf forest without being blocked by other elves or small animals in the forest."

Celia carefully examined the Forest Leaf. When she received it, she glanced at it twice and then paid no attention to it, tossing it into her ring and ignoring it.

Looking at it now, it's actually quite nice.

"What are the specific effects of the Forest Leaf?" Celia asked.

She felt that Mori no Ha was definitely not that simple.

“That depends on what the spirit put in the Leaf of Forest.” Ross took Lana’s Leaf of Forest from Celia and said, “Remember what Lana once told you? If you need help, she can come quickly. That’s the effect of her Leaf of Forest. After being activated with magic, it can create a unique spatial passage so she can come quickly.”

"She's a spatial magic user?" Celia exclaimed in surprise.

So far, she has not encountered a traditional spatial magic user.

"No, this is a function bestowed by the sacred tree, and has nothing to do with the school of magic she has mastered."

Ross drained Celia's magic and slowly disappeared into the Forest Leaves.

"If Forest Leaf can teleport her here, then we can use that property to teleport you to her side. Are you ready?"

Celia nodded.

The next second, the leaves of the forest burst forth with light, enveloping her.

When the light faded, Celia found herself no longer in the familiar camp.

It was a simple room, and judging from the decor, Celia quickly confirmed that it was a treehouse.

Inside the treehouse, there were two elven girls, one lying on the bed and the other pacing anxiously around the bedside.

Lying on the bed is Lana, and the swirling elf bears a resemblance to her.

Celia glanced at the scene, quickly completed her disguise, and transformed into the elf that Lana had once seen, namely 'Celia'.

"Who are you? Where did you come from?"

The elf, circling around, spoke timidly, but with a deep sense of wariness.

However, the initial wariness quickly dissipated.

She looked at Celia in surprise: "You are... Celia?"

"Um...it's me. Hello, I'm Lana's friend. You are..."

"I am Lana's younger sister, my name is Nara."

"Uh……"

What a hasty naming.
