Chapter 574 Past Events
Although I have known Taylor for a long time, I know very little about him.
I only know that this old man's healing ability is absolutely top-notch, and he is addicted to alcohol. I don't know anything else.
Sometimes when he was drunk, I would listen to him tell some bizarre and sinister past events. After telling the past events, he would always add one or two sentences: Actually, when I was young, I was quite powerful.
I don’t know, can’t tell, or find out what Taylor’s strength is. I only know that he can suppress my indiscriminate killing intent, or he can open a completely transparent magic shield to protect the world. The BOSS's attack was completely blocked.
As for the rest, I don't know anything about it.
This time, I happened to catch Taylor’s eyes that seemed to be no stranger to Moonlight City, and that’s how we had the conversation that followed.
Taylor was silent for a while and said: "Actually, I have been to Moonlight City before, but I was deceived."
"Hey, I was deceived. I never thought you could have such an innocent youth," I teased him.
"Scared!" Taylor rolled his eyes at me and said disdainfully: "My youth is not innocent, but a youth full of color!"
I curled my lips in disdain.
Taylor ignored my expression, took a sip of wine, thought about it again, and said, "Well, that's it."
After more than ten seconds of silence, I asked tentatively: "No more?"
Taylor opened the wine compartment and said, "No more."
"Let's go, old man, you're not kidding me, are you?" I said angrily: "Is this the end of it? Why don't you tell me why you were deceived to come here? Is the person who deceived you a man? Female? Just tell me that you were deceived, which has the same effect as saying nothing!"
Taylor didn't say anything, just laughed, and then continued to drink.
I was very unhappy, so I picked up a wine bottle, opened the cork, and started drinking.
At this time, the waitress from the cafe came over and shouted to me: "Xiaoyi, Emily is here to see you."
When I heard this, I put down the bottle and said, "Okay, I'll be there right away."
"No need, I'm already here."
While talking, Emily walked up slowly wearing a military uniform and armor.
At this moment, I panicked. The first thing I thought of was not to say hello to her, but to collect all the empty wine bottles and unopened wine bottles on the floor. After all, such a messy scene and Emily’s almost perfect existence It's completely contradictory.
However, Emily completely ignored the embarrassing scene behind me and said calmly: "I heard that you were back, so I came to find you."
"Hehe, hehe" I scratched my hair in embarrassment and kicked an empty wine bottle behind me: "Um, come to me, what's the matter?"
"Yes," Emily said seriously: "There are two things."
"Hehe, you say it, you say it."
"The first thing is, continue to spar with me tomorrow."
As soon as Emily finished saying this, I almost spit out my wine. Please, I just came back, okay, you come to me to spar. By the way, how much do you want to spar with me!
I originally wanted to refuse, but out of the corner of my eye, the old guy Taylor looked at me with his drunken eyes.
Okay, okay, I get it. It's rude to refuse a woman's request. Don't look at me with such contempt anymore. I'll just agree.
Reluctantly, I nodded and agreed to Emily's first request.
Emily remained expressionless and said: "The second thing is that the Queen is looking for you."
"Ah?" I asked in confusion: "But we just met just now? Why are you looking for me again?"
"I don't know," Emily said lightly, "You'll find out once you go there."
I turned my head and said to Taylor: "The Elf Queen is looking for me, I'm leaving first, old man."
Taylor opened the wine compartment, waved his hand, and continued to drink.
Along with Emily, we went to the palace and entered the living room. The Queen was sitting at the coffee table, sipping tea. Behind her, stood the six old witch women who were like gangrene on their bones.
Seeing me coming, the Queen nodded slightly and said, "Please sit down."
After sitting down opposite her, Emily also stood back to the Queen's side.
The Elf Queen said: "I'm sorry for asking you to come."
I waved my hand hurriedly and said, "You are being polite. Although I am not an elf, I am already a resident of Moonlight City. It is normal for me to be summoned by the Queen to have an audience. There is no need to apologize."
The Elf Queen smiled and said, "Actually, I invited you here because I have something to ask of you."
"Is it related to Remy?" I asked.
The Queen nodded.
Sighing, I said: "I think the Queen should know that I am not someone who likes to force others to do things I don't like."
The Elf Queen nodded: "Yes, Lilea once said that you are such a person."
"So," I said, "regarding Remy, you should ask it yourself. It is impossible to go through me."
"Young man, why didn't you listen to Her Majesty the Queen's conditions and just reject Her Majesty's request?" the old witch standing at the front said in a gentle tone.
"I'm sorry, grandma," I said, "some things can be done, but some things cannot be done. I don't want to violate my principles because of this."
The Elf Queen was silent for a while, and forced a smile, saying: "In this case, I can't force it, but can you listen to the past events of our elves and goblins?"
"Extremely happy."
The Elf Queen softened her expression slightly and said: "The real aborigines of Moonlight City are not our elves, but the goblins. They are naturally intelligent, versatile, and enthusiastic to help others. Moreover, all of them have mastered powerful magic."
"The ancestors of our elves were originally members of Dashai City. During a certain sailing trip, they accidentally came to the far-off Moonlight City and received the warm hospitality of the elves. As a result, they experienced a series of ups and downs. After that, all of us elves moved our families to settle in Moonlight City."
It turns out that the elves actually have such a history~
I was thinking to myself when the Queen continued: "We get along well with the goblins and prosper together. Soon, we integrated into the environment here and became real residents of Moonlight City. This kind of coexistence and prosperity, together It lasted for thousands of years, until one day, our elves made an unforgivable mistake, which caused the members of the elves to have a deep grudge against us, but they couldn't bear to drive us away, so one day, During the night, they disappeared en masse.”
"Disappeared?" I asked doubtfully, "And it was just overnight?"
"Yes" the Elf Queen sighed and said: "So far, I have never seen the appearance of the Elf tribe again. Until Remi's appearance, my hope was rekindled. I hope, I hope."
The Elf Queen was silent, not because she didn't want to say it, but because she couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart.
