The immense pressure was palpable, even to Lu Ran!
Moreover, when Lu Ran took control of the Dark Elf Queen, he had also seen her attributes.
[Lv100 Dark Queen]!
A level one hundred Dark Queen!
In the current global environment where professional were still struggling to clear level 60 team dungeons, she was practically an invincible existence!
What’s more, aside from Eagle Country, no other nations had managed to conquer the Black Dragon Mountain Range!
They couldn’t even clear the normal difficulty!
Gulp~
Lu Ran swallowed hard.
This wave… was a massive win!
Even if he didn’t get the SSS-tier reward set by Elf Queen Tina.
Even if he didn’t obtain the Spirit Wings.
Just this level 100 Dark Elf Queen Si Luoluo alone was already an overwhelming victory!
At the same time.
The Natural Elves were on high alert!
Tina instantly raised her bow, aiming it at Si Luoluo.
Si Luoluo responded in kind, lifting her staff.
Whoosh~
A dark purple shield, like an eggshell, enveloped Lu Ran.
Only then did she cast one on herself.
Tina saw this clearly, her heart filled with even greater shock.
When faced with danger, Dark Elf Queen Si Luoluo’s first instinct wasn’t to protect herself, but to protect this Necromancer!
Lu Ran, on the other hand, was startled.
He hurriedly said, “What are you doing? Queen, didn’t you send me to solve this problem? Don’t look down on me just because I’m a necromancer, which you consider an evil profession. I personally dislike killing and love peace. I hope to resolve this peacefully, not through a life-or-death struggle. Nature elves and dark elves belong to the same lineage, but they have branched out because of their different ideologies. I don’t want to see you killing each other.”
This speech almost made Liu Xinxin laugh out loud.
As a professional, how do you level up without killing?
She knew, of course, that Lu Ran was saying this to pander to Elf Queen Tina.
The effect was remarkable!
Tina’s gaze towards Lu Ran instantly changed.
Her concept of the evil Necromancer seemed to fade considerably.
“So, how do you propose to resolve it?” Tina asked thoughtfully.
“Simple.” Lu Ran directly turned to Si Luoluo, extended his hand, and said, “Give me the Magic Stone.”
Huh?
Tina was stunned. So direct?
The Dark Elves have guarded the Magic Stone for so many years, unwilling to return it, and you just ask for it like that?
Although she could tell Si Luoluo and Lu Ran had an unusual relationship, surely it wasn’t to this extent?
Unexpectedly.
Upon hearing Lu Ran’s words, Si Luoluo simply flipped her wrist and produced a jade-like hexagonal crystal star.
She placed it in Lu Ran’s hand.
Magic Stone obtained!
Tina was dumbfounded.
Lu Ran then handed the Magic Stone to Tina, saying, “Here, take this. Doesn’t that solve the problem?”
“Uh… I… that… yes, yes… you…” Tina stammered, having never been at such a loss for words in her life.
Originally, the situation today had left Tina in a tight spot, even feeling despair.
But she never expected.
Lu Ran’s appearance resolved it so effortlessly!
And the Dark Elf Queen was so loyal to this human!
She simply couldn’t comprehend it!
Taking several deep breaths, she calmed the shock and surprise in her heart, along with the joy of surviving a crisis.
Plus, no war or casualties occurred between the Natural Elves and Dark Elves. This was simply the most perfect outcome!
“Thank you, human,” Tina said sincerely to Lu Ran.
The hint of distrust towards humans in her words seemed to have vanished without a trace.
“Just call me Lu Ran,” Lu Ran said somewhat awkwardly.
Even though Tina was an elf, she looked quite similar to humans.
Being called ‘human’ by Tina repeatedly felt a bit odd.
“Alright, Lu Ran. Thank you. This outcome is the best way this situation could have been handled,” Tina nodded.
But throughout, Si Luoluo never spoke.
She simply stood gracefully by Lu Ran’s side, watchful of the Natural Elf direction.
She cared for nothing else now.
Her mind was filled entirely with Lu Ran!
Such was the absolute authority granted by the indiscriminate control of the Bone Throne trait!
Next.
Tina looked towards the Dark Elf army and asked, “Then… what about those Dark Elves?”
Well…
Lu Ran was also a bit unsure.
He turned to Si Luoluo and asked, “Si Luoluo, what were your original plans? Bringing your clan here, what were your demands?”
Si Luoluo answered truthfully, “To take the Spirit Forest, rely on the World Tree to cleanse the dark attribute from the Dark Elf clan, return to the protection of the Nature Goddess, and regain the original Natural Elf bloodline!”
Even Tina was taken aback.
The Dark Elves, unsatisfied with their dark bloodline, wanted to use the World Tree to cleanse it and return to being Natural Elves!
Bringing the Magic Stone was for this purpose!
That’s why Si Luoluo had kindly advised earlier, asking Tina to lead her Natural Elves away from here.
If not necessary, even if Si Luoluo hadn’t been controlled by Lu Ran, she instinctively wouldn’t have wanted to fight her Natural Elf kin.
After all, they shared the same lineage!
“That’s also simple. The World Tree’s radiance covers the entire Spirit Forest, which is vast. The Dark Elves can just stay here from now on. Now that the Magic Stone and the World Tree are reunited, the World Tree’s power should be enhanced, right?” Lu Ran analyzed.
Well…
Tina looked at Si Luoluo, pondering, “I have no issue with that, as we share the same lineage. But Dark Elves are warlike, and their beliefs differ from ours…”
Before she could finish.
Lu Ran waved his hand and said, “The Dark Elves are under my command. From now on, Dark Elves will no longer wage war elsewhere.”
Tina stared at Lu Ran in astonishment.
Then looked at Si Luoluo.
Si Luoluo nodded and said, “As you command. The Dark Elves shall lie low, live quietly, and multiply.”
With a single sentence from Lu Ran, the entire philosophy of the Dark Elves was overturned!
Tina admired Lu Ran even more. For a human to have an entire Dark Elf clan submit to him and obey any command or will…
It was simply a miracle!
“Since that’s the case, very well! From today onward, the Dark Elves shall reside in the Sunset Plains. It’s close enough to the World Tree. Once your bloodlines are restored, we shall once again be the great Natural Elf clan!” Tina said with a sense of longing.
Being able to bring the Dark Elves back to the Spirit Forest during her reign as Elf Queen would be a monumental achievement!
Lu Ran, meanwhile, rubbed his hands together.
He chuckled and asked, “So, about the quest reward…”
Tina smiled sweetly and said, “The quest is complete. Reward distribution is calculated based on completion and automatically issued by the World’s Will.”
After speaking.
Tina extended a hand. The Magic Stone slowly floated up, paused for a moment, then shot out like a bolt of lightning, returning to the crown of the World Tree.
The previously dormant Magic Stone, upon contacting the World Tree, instantly erupted with a brilliant emerald green light that soared into the sky!
The radiance of the World Tree also suddenly exploded forth!
At the same time.
Lu Ran received the long-awaited prompt:
[Congratulations on completing the quest: The Glory of the Natural Elves. Based on your rating, you have received the SSS-Tier Reward!]
