After finding no danger, Locke asked the professor to come over to his side and asked him if he had any suggestions.
The same question, the same answer. No matter what you ask, the old man in front of you will only answer that you don't remember it. The only exception is one name - Lestron.
"Do you know what this word means?" Locke looked at the professor and asked.
"I have to think about it. There seems to be something about this in the documents of the Third Dynasty." The professor remembered that he seemed to have seen this name somewhere, but because he was older, some memories were not so clear.
It took a long time for the professor to remember where he had seen this word. He suddenly said as if enlightened: "Yes, the descendant of Yagudori-Lestron, must be this one!"
"Agudori?" Locke cast his gaze at the center of this elf ruins. He naturally knew the name. It was an elf tree, a symbol of the prosperity of the Third Dynasty.
But now there is no trace of Yagudori in the ruins.
As for Lestrang, what does it have to do with the Yagudori tree?
"It is rumored that it is the descendant of the Yagudori tree. Contrary to the Yagudori tree, which symbolizes prosperity and grace, Lestrang represents decline and plunder... This should be the meaning. The elves' words are not easy to translate.
"The professor said with some uncertainty.
The elf's writing was very complicated and not easy to decipher, and he was just recalling information about Lestrang based on his past memories.
"Is he here just waiting for Lestrand?" Locke felt weird.
"Do the documents in your memory record what Lestrang looks like?" Locke was also curious in his heart, what would the descendants of the Yagudori tree look like? Could it be that it is also a tree?
However, the professor shook his head at Locke. He did not know what Lestrand looked like, and there was no record of this in the literature. He was only mentioned briefly.
Locke didn't dwell on this aspect. He said: "No matter what Lestron looks like, it will never be a good thing."
Something that represents decay and plunder cannot be kind no matter how you think about it. Even if the actual meaning expressed in the elven literature is not this, the translation result is not too far off.
Now he somewhat understood why Mayer didn't want him to enter the elf ruins at this time. Maybe it had something to do with this so-called Lestrang.
Locke sighed, even if they knew about this strange situation, they couldn't just go back. They were already halfway through the journey, and going back at this time would mean that they had made a wasted trip.
It will be even more impossible to obtain the magic of the elves after that.
We can only take some risks, not to mention that the old elf in front of us has been waiting here for so long and has not seen Lestrang appear, and it is impossible for him to change just because they came here.
Even though I think so, it's actually just self-comfort.
Locke knew that he didn't have much time to waste. The temptation of elf magic was too great. Whether he learned it by himself or took it back and traded it on the black market in Linyuan City, it could bring him unimaginable benefits. Therefore, he must go to the literature as soon as possible.
Tower, just move the contents back to the camp.
"You stay here and guard this guy." Locke kept the youngest pioneer in the team and was responsible for watching the old elf in front of him on the city wall.
Although the pioneer's face was full of reluctance, he had no choice but to obey the captain's order and stayed on the city wall alone.
...
At the same time, Meyer, who had left the Pioneer Camp long ago, was in the ruins. He was now located underground where the Yagudori tree was.
There are dense passages all over here. The roots of the Yagudori tree were excavated when it still existed at that time. It is unknown how deep the roots spread, and Meyer and others did not explore deeply.
.
Not only because such behavior is meaningless, exploring the deepest part of the underground is undoubtedly a dangerous move. Now that their tribe has only ten people, the death of any elf is fatal to them.
"Those humans are coming in." An elf with long pale golden hair said to Mayer.
Mayer looked at his tribe. The elves who could survive in the abyss were all powerful. They were descendants of the Third Dynasty, but they had not received the inheritance of the Third Dynasty.
As early as when they were born, the Third Dynasty had already drowned in the abyss. The surviving elves raised them, taught them the magic of the elves, and taught them how to survive in the abyss, but they did not have time to transfer the Third Dynasty to the abyss.
The inheritance is handed over to them together.
"They should have seen the ancestors, and I don't know what they will do." An elf said.
Meyer said at this time: "They won't do anything. Locke's goal is the Documentation Tower, which contains records of the Third Dynasty. Those things may be of great value to mankind."
"Just let them take it away?"
Mayer looked at the elf on the side and said: "There is no point in keeping it. Don't forget our mission to revive the former Third Dynasty. As long as the dynasty can be revived, those things will be replenished sooner or later."
"What's more, whether they can take it away or not is a question." Mayer said that he had already warned Locke. If the other party did not listen to the dissuasion, it would be none of his business.
"How long can our ancestors hold on..."
"His life span has completely come to an end, and it could happen at any time." Mayer glanced at the remaining tribesmen around him and said, "We just need to wait now."
As for what she was waiting for, Mayer didn't say it, but everyone else knew it.
They have to wait for their ancestors to pass away completely.
His eyes were full of loneliness. This was a difficult time. They could not see off their ancestors, so they could only silently stay in the underground labyrinth created by the roots of the Yagudori tree.
"The ancestors have been waiting for too long. This is a relief for him, and we still have our responsibilities, so cheer up." Bold words are not suitable for the elves living in the abyss. They live every moment.
In despair, the only things left in his heart were the faith to revive the Third Dynasty and the pride of being an elf.
The ancestors sitting on the city wall have been waiting since the Third Dynasty. They used the marrow of the Yagudori tree to extend the life of their ancestors. This was not without cost. During the long wait, the ancestors slowly forgot about themselves.
Forgot the past and his responsibilities.
Today's ancestor is just a watchman sitting on the city wall. He watches the entire abyss with a depth of 140 meters, watches the elven ruins left by the entire Third Dynasty, and watches the descendants of the Yagudori tree who will appear from afar at the last moment.
