Chapter 257 Heart of the Earth (3rd Update)
With his powerful mental power, Yu Fei easily found the treasury of the Lord's Mansion and Viscount Wright's own private vault.
After skillfully looting all the gold coins and magic cores in the Lord's Mansion's treasure house, Yu Fei flashed into Viscount Wright's private vault. Before entering the private vault, he also knocked out a butler-like man who was fiddling with a magic circle in Viscount Wright's study.
Viscount Wright, who was confidently talking to the invading elves, would never have thought that the reinforcements from other nearby imperial cities that he was counting on might not arrive. Poor butler Condra had just finished fiddling with the magic circle for communication when he was knocked out by Yu Fei and was unable to contact the nearby city lords.
Of course, Yu Fei would not care about Viscount Wright. He only cared about gold coins and magic cores. Well, Viscount Wright is also good at making money! While Yu Fei was collecting the gold coins and magic cores from Viscount Wright's private vault with his space ring, he was looking at the basement with night pearls on the walls and gold and jewels scattered on the ground.
Suddenly, Yu Fei suddenly felt something unusual in his space ring. Hmm? This space ring is not full? What's going on? Yu Fei probed into the space ring he got first with his mental power, and found the source of the abnormality.
It turned out to be this thing? ! Yu Fei took out the Heart of Flame that he accidentally got from the caravan from the space ring, and found that the Heart of Flame was flickering.
Could it be that there are other components of the Heart of Eternity here? The Heart of Eternity is an item that Yu Fei needs to upgrade his body to the Tree of Eternity. It needs to be synthesized with six treasures: the Heart of Flame, the Heart of the Ocean, the Heart of the Earth, the Heart of the Sky, the Heart of Light, and the Heart of Darkness.
By chance, Yu Fei got the Heart of Flame, but there was no news about the other five "hearts". It is said that the Heart of Light is the jewel on the crown of the current emperor of the Holy Lion Empire, but Yu Fei did not go to confirm it before, so to this day he still only has the Heart of Flame.
However, today the Heart of Flame suddenly reacted, which made Yu Fei very happy. The Heart of Eternity is of great significance to Yu Fei. Only when the main body is upgraded to the Eternal Tree can the Night Elves have the ultimate soldier Chimera. And the more advanced technology unlocked after upgrading to the Eternal Tree will also make the overall strength of the entire Night Elves take a big step forward.
Yu Fei began to carefully search for items that may be components of the Heart of Eternity in Viscount Light's private library. According to the information previously queried, the Heart of Darkness is in the Demon Realm; the Heart of the Ocean is in the boundless ocean; and the Heart of Light is controlled by the Holy Lion Empire.
Now the Heart of Flame is in his hands, but he doesn't know whether the component he can get this time will be the Heart of the Sky or the Heart of the Earth? Soon, through the weak connection between the Heart of Flame and other components, Yu Fei found a golden round bead like amber under the search of his powerful mental power.
The moment he got the round bead, Yu Fei knew it clearly. This one is the Heart of the Earth, which represents the soil among the six "hearts". He has obtained two of the six components of the Heart of Eternity. Viscount Wright actually put this precious Heart of the Earth together with those ordinary jewels, which is really a waste of natural resources.
However, Yu Fei can also understand that divine objects are hidden. Before the six components of the Heart of Eternity show their magical properties, ordinary people will definitely not recognize these "hearts".
Haha, seeing that Viscount Wright let me get the Heart of the Earth by accident, I should hurry to the city wall to contact the people of the Elven Tribe of Ivis to save Viscount Wright's life. Yu Fei was in a very good mood after getting the Heart of the Earth. After putting the gold and magic core in Viscount Wright's private vault into the space ring, he thought so.
As for the plan to rob other places in Wright City, Yu Fei gave up. The bulk of Wright City's resources are in the auction house warehouse and the City Lord's Mansion that were presented to the Empire. Since the property in these two places has been obtained, Yu Fei doesn't bother to care about the other "mosquito legs".
At this time, Viscount Wright was not as happy as Yu Fei. Of course, if he knew that the treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion and his private warehouse had been looted by Yu Fei, he would probably be in a worse mood.
"Elder Ivis, let's not beat around the bush. This Viscount admits that the auction in the city auctioned elves before, but that was done by those adventurers and slave-hunting teams, and it has nothing to do with my Wright City." Viscount Wright was obviously lying with his eyes open, and few elves under the city believed him.
Viscount Wright also knew that the elves would not believe his words, and even he would not believe this nonsense, but he still had to do the surface work. After all, the Empire and the elves still live in harmony on the surface, and they cannot tear each other apart blatantly.
"My city of Light is a territory of the Holy Lion Empire. Great Elder Ives, you must think clearly about the consequences of attacking the border cities of the Empire!" Viscount Light was a little tough, as if to warn the elves, but then his tone softened.
"Great Elder Ives, it is indeed wrong to sell elves, but you have already sent elves to rescue the five elves, why do you still have to line up soldiers under the city of Light? Are you really not afraid of the siege of the Empire's army?"
Among the elves under the city, a handsome middle-aged male elf who was obviously in a leadership position frowned when he heard what Viscount Wright said. Nicole and the others were rescued? What's going on? I didn't send elves to sneak into Wright City to rescue them.
Just after learning that his daughter was captured by humans, Elder Ives immediately led the warriors in the tribe to the city of Wright. Because it was late when he got the news, Elder Ives, who deeply understood what the hateful humans would do to the elves, didn't think much and immediately led his troops to come. How could he have time to arrange for the elves to rescue Nicole and the others?
Is this an excuse made by the city lord just to delay time? Elder Ives knew the horror of the Holy Lion Empire, and he also understood that several nearby human cities might soon learn about the situation in Wright City and send troops to support it.
Although the entire elf tribe is not afraid of the Holy Lion Empire, the elves today are not as united as they were thousands of years ago. The Ives tribe is just a relatively large elf tribe, and it can't afford to offend the Holy Lion Empire at all.
But this time, my daughter was captured by humans! Judith, I was too cowardly at the beginning, so I lost the person I loved the most. Now I may lose our daughter. How can I retreat? !
Gritting his teeth, the eyes of the Great Elder Ivis revealed a firm color. This time, I must save our daughter no matter what! Judith, I will not make the same mistake again!
"Lord Light, I don't want to talk to you. I know you are stalling for time and waiting for reinforcements-I won't give you this opportunity. Within half a magic hour, hand over the five elves of our tribe that you captured, otherwise after half a magic hour, I will lead thousands of warriors of our elves to flatten this Light City!"
The words of the Great Elder Ivis were so powerful that Viscount Light, who was standing on the city wall, was stunned. While speaking, the Great Elder Ivis also deliberately emitted his sky-level aura to oppress the human army on the city wall. He knew very well that there were no sky-level strongmen in Light City.
Half a magic hour? Even if the nearest city reinforcements arrive, it will take a magic hour. Is the Avis tribe really going to tear each other apart this time? Damn it, hand over those five elves. How do I know where those five elves are now? You know, I called them out a long time ago! Viscount Wright is really crying now.
Just when Viscount Wright was considering whether to return to the mansion immediately to pack up his belongings and escape or wait for half a magic hour and then fight hard for half a magic hour to wait for reinforcements, no one noticed that a vague figure flew down the city wall and came to the front of the elves.
The light was dim at night, but this was not a big problem for the elves with certain night vision. Yu Fei was discovered by the elves just before he arrived at the elves' formation under the city. The method of using mental power to make people ignore their existence can only be used on those who are not on guard and have low strength. Elves like these who are strong and on guard will naturally not be affected by Yu Fei.
"Who is it?!" As the question sounded, dozens of elves' bows and arrows were aimed at Yu Fei. Those who appeared here at this time were unlikely to be friends.
But Yu Fei surprised the elves. He calmly lowered his hood, and in an instant, the elves who saw Yu Fei's goddess-like face were stunned, and his ears, which were narrower and longer than those of ordinary elves, were also exposed.
A quarter of a magic hour later, the elf team lined up on the east wall of Light City suddenly retreated silently. This made Viscount Light, who finally made up his mind to return to the lord's mansion to pack up his belongings and escape, stunned on the spot.
This, this, this, are those elves crazy? After coming to Light City and saying a lot of harsh words, they just left quietly, uh, did the elves leave? After being on guard for a while, Viscount Light ordered half of the soldiers to continue to guard the city wall, and the other half to go to rest first.
Viscount Wright, who was relieved, walked towards his mansion, but he didn't know that his lord's mansion had been looted by a powerful thief.
And Nicole and other elves who were anxiously waiting in Yu Fei's room were fidgeting. The words of Viscount Wright and Elder Ives were transmitted through magic amplification, and several elves naturally heard them. Nicole and other elves who were waiting for Yu Fei's return suddenly heard the door of the room "creak" and opened.
