"Thank you for saying that." The mountain giant said: "You have become very powerful, so powerful that I can hardly believe it. The attacks on the human imperial city were all resolved by you alone. However, you arrived a little late after all.
Lingtian City was partially destroyed, and some brave elves also died in the battle... Go and see them, I feel a magical force has sent them to a safe place. They are very sad now, and they also need how much they can be given.
To take away some of the sad news."
Ling Chen felt a knot in his heart, glanced at Qingmu, and nodded slowly: "I understand... Chief Qingmu, they are in the east of the city, let's go there."
In the east of Lingtian City, everyone Ling Chen wanted to see was there. Yun Mengxin and Li Xiaoxue lowered their heads in silence. Xiao Qi and Su Er's eyes were red, and they had obviously been crying for a long time. Yunfeng, Xiao Qiufeng and others all looked heavy.
His eyes were full of anger and resentment. The patriarch and several elders of the dwarf clan also returned here at some point, sometimes sighing, sometimes letting out extremely angry roars, while all the elves had tears in their eyes, filled with sadness and
Sadness... In the middle of them, nineteen male elves of different ages were lying there quietly side by side, with no breath of life on their bodies.
Before Ling Chen arrived, the elves had killed a total of nineteen elves. Compared with the total destruction of the Forgotten City army, this number was so small that it could be ignored. However, for everyone in Lingtian City, the Forgotten City army and these invaders were
Even if they were completely wiped out, death would not be a pity, and even if only one of the innocent elves who fought to defend Lingtian City died, they would not be able to accept it at all. Seeing the arrival of Ling Chen and Qingmu, everyone rushed forward excitedly, and said:
For the Elf clan, patriarch Qingmu is their pillar, and for Lingtian City, although Yun Mengxin is the city lord, everyone understands that Ling Chen is the core of the entire city.
Xiao Qi and Su Er came to Ling Chen and finally couldn't help crying again: "Brother Ling Tian, where have you been these two days? Why can't I find you...Uncle Zixiao, Uncle Qingyun, and...
Yingfeng, Yingyun, Qinglan... they all died... In order to protect Lingtian City, they were killed by the people from the Forgotten City... Wuwu... Wuwuwuwu..."
And with the return of Qingmu, the entire Elf clan was crying. This is the first time they have accepted this sudden separation since they were born. This is more painful for them than thousands of arrows in the heart.
There were so many. Aoki stood in front of the corpses of the elves and looked at them silently. His face was unruffled, but his clenched hands were shaking violently. Two traces of tears fell silently from the corners of his eyes to his cheeks.
chin, and then dripped to the ground one after another.
Ling Chen raised his head and took a long breath. Xuanyuan Diewu walked to his side, approached him gently, and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I didn't protect them well..."
"It's not your fault. In that case, even you can't change anything at all." Ling Chen said quietly: "All the faults...are all mine...all..."
"Over in Xicheng...has the crisis been resolved?" Yun Mengxin finally spoke up and asked in a low voice.
"Except for the Forgotten Emperor and his two divine guards, all others...were all destroyed." Ling Chen replied dully.
Yun Mengxin nodded, not shocked, not even happy. Ling Chen's words also reached everyone's ears... Under the strong invasion of the Forgotten Army, they were already in despair, but in only about half an hour, the other party unexpectedly
It was completely destroyed, which was undoubtedly an incredible miracle. But at this moment, no one was happy, and no one cheered.
Ling Chen separated from the crowd, silently walked to the side of the Qingmu clan leader, and looked at the nineteen dead elves with him. The elf corpse lying in front of him was called Qingyun, and he was a very amiable elf uncle.
, is in charge of the collection and transportation work between the Elf Secret Realm and Lingtian City. No matter who he faces, his face is always gentle and smiling. Next to him, a beautiful middle-aged elf woman is kneeling there with empty eyes.
, her tears seem to have dried up. Her name is Qingling, and she is Qingyun’s wife. In her arms, she holds tightly an elf girl who looks to be only six or seven years old. Her name is Yingyan, and she is the daughter of Qingyun and Qingyun.
Ling's daughter, her thin body was curled up in her mother's arms, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she looked at the corpse beside her with blurred eyes. Under the extreme sadness and crying, her consciousness was in a semi-dissociated state.
He kept calling "Daddy" unconsciously, and every time he called, his heart almost broke.
Ling Chen can best understand the pain of separation and death, because he has experienced it twice in his life, once when he learned about Xuanyuan Diewu's death, and once when he was separated from Shui Ruo. Both times, he went completely crazy.
, both times, he had the will to die. The pain was a thousand times worse than the torture in heaven and hell. The death of an elf led to the complete breakdown of one or even multiple elf families... All elf families
The clan is just one family. If one person dies, the whole clan will be sad, not to mention that a whole nineteen elves left in one day.
Ling Chen took a step forward and stood next to Qingyun's body. His lips moved for a long time before he said dryly: "Aunt Qingling, Yan'er... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
He was indeed sorry for them. If he had not found the elves, and then guided them out of the secret realm of the elves and settled in Lingtian City, then nothing like today would have happened. It is impossible to predict what the future of the elves would be like, but at least Qingyun would not
If they die, their family will be quiet, peaceful, content with the world, and happy without worries. Other elves will not die, so many elven families will not be broken up, and all elves will not be involved in wars.
and chaos, not heartbreak.
It is true that by doing this, he can save the elves from going extinct step by step, but he is the fundamental cause of today's tragedy. This is an indisputable fact. Moreover, he led the elves to settle in Lingtian City. Isn't it just to help the elves?
From his standpoint, what he is doing is just his own selfishness.
Hearing his voice, Qing Ling, whose eyes were dull, reacted for a long time. She raised her head, glanced at Ling Chen, then lowered her head slowly, and said weakly and hoarsely: "No...it's not your fault, you untied it."
Our blockade has awakened the Elf Tree again. You are the greatest benefactor of our elves, how could you let us down... Qingyun... He... He died fighting to protect his homeland... He was not only a good husband, but also a good man.
Dad, he is still a real man...I am proud of him...I..."
Qing Ling choked completely and closed her eyes tightly, unable to speak any more. In her arms, Xiao Yingyan raised her head and said dimly: "Mom said... Dad is a hero. He never left us.
Instead, I went to heaven. In heaven, dad will be very happy and will always look after us... So, brother Lingtian, don’t say sorry to us. Although you are often absent, you have always been dad, mom, and me.
My favorite person."
Ling Chen's body trembled, and his whole body was filled with a sour and heart-wrenching warmth. The corners of his eyes slowly became moist... If they beat him, scolded him, hated him, or ignored him, he would feel better.
, but their eyes not only showed no blame or resentment, but were full of comfort, and their voices only contained warmth and peace... Their hearts were so pure and kind that it was heartbreaking, and it made Ling Chen feel infinitely guilty and heartbroken.
Expanding...
After breaking into the elves, why did he let them out of the secret realm of the elves in the name of saving the elves for his own selfish reasons... Why did he know that the Forgotten City would take action, but never did it?
So well prepared... Why did I not leave the underworld for two whole days at such a time...
A big hand was placed on Ling Chen's shoulder. Qingmu looked at him and said calmly: "Ling Tian, don't blame yourself. This is indeed not your fault. No matter whether you walk out of the Elf Secret Realm or defend Ling Tian City with your life, this is all.
It is our own choice. Lingtian City is the current home of our elves, and it is our responsibility and our honor to protect it with our strength and life. Before the war, we had enough psychological preparations."
"Yes, Brother Lingtian, this is not your fault at all. On the contrary, you saved us again."
"You are a great benefactor to our elves. When they get to heaven, they will only be grateful to you forever. How can they blame you?"
"Yeah, don't blame yourself, it's really not your fault..."
Faced with Ling Chen's expression of guilt, none of the grief-stricken elves lost control of their emotions. Instead, they stepped forward one by one to comfort him, lest he blame himself for this incident.
Ling Chen's heart was deeply shocked. Looking at the elves around him and the Lingtian City in front of him, his thoughts towards Ling Tiancheng quietly changed dramatically. Before today, Lingtian City was to him,
He built it for Yun Mengxin, which is equivalent to a gift he gave to Yun Mengxin to fulfill his promise to her. The center of his world is to find the elements that bring the dead back to life. Lingtian City is something external to him. Even if he let her
He was the nominal deputy city lord, but he had resisted for a long time before reluctantly agreeing. But at this moment, he suddenly realized his responsibility for this Lingtian City. Lingtian City was born because of him, and with his
Naming it, he has the responsibility to protect everything about it, rather than treating it as a resting place and ignoring everything else... At least, these kind-hearted citizens are worthy of his full protection.
Ling Chen didn't speak anymore. He slowly walked out and came to where Xiao Qiufeng and the others were. With every step he took, his eyes became colder, and an extremely strong murderous aura was also in his pupils.
Quietly gathering together. He looked ahead and suddenly said: "King of Fallen Heaven, how many players can the Heavenly Fallen Dynasty currently mobilize immediately?"
Fallen Sky was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said: "There are currently 2.48 million online players, and 1.2 million are on standby at any time. If this number is not enough, give me two quarters of an hour..."
"That's enough." Ling Chen interrupted him, his voice as calm as water, but every word made people feel inexplicable heart palpitations: "Let them gather at the central square of the Forgotten City in ten minutes."
Fallen Sky's spirit was shocked. After struggling slightly, both eyes flashed with fiery and crazy light at the same time: "Okay! In ten minutes, there will be no less of them! Even if the consequences are ten times more serious, I vow to forget them."
The city has been turned upside down! What a bullshit imperial city, what a bullshit emperor... The day before yesterday, I was drinking, playing chess, and telling each other about life with Zi Xiao and Qing Yue. How could it be... gone... Sigh..."
Falling to the sky let out a long sigh, and his eye circles turned red again.
"No! I'm not asking you to make a big fuss," Ling Chen shook his head: "The strength gap between the players and the NPCs in the Imperial City is too big. Let alone millions, you won't be able to make a fuss. You will only suffer brutal suppression and punishment. I
Ask them all to carry out the same order in the center of the Forgotten City in ten minutes."
Ling Chen turned around and slowly spoke the content of the instruction.
"What...what!?" Listening to the "instructions" from Ling Chen's mouth, the three heavenly kings opened their mouths at the same time, almost thinking that there was something wrong with their ears. Yunfeng and Xiao Qiufeng were also stunned at the same time, but they looked at Ling Chen.
Chen's cold and terrifying eyes... didn't look like he was joking or crazy at all.
"Do as he said." Li Xiaoxue said decisively: "If there are not enough people, you can mobilize more."
"These are enough." Ling Chen said lightly, his eyes tilted and looked in the direction of the Forgotten City. He already held an empty fantasy bead in his hand and murmured coldly: "You owe me Lingtian City today.
, I want them to... repay a hundredfold!!"
After the voice fell, Ling Chen disappeared there without saying hello to anyone, and went to the Forgotten City alone.
