Chapter 242 No! Her Majesty the Queen Is in Danger!
"Come back so soon?"
Seeing Chen Ping standing outside the camp, Elis had a suspicious look on his face.
After all, the Death City is not that close. Even with the blessing of magic, it would take her about a day to reach it.
As for Chen Ping, it only took him one night to make the trip.
Eles felt that the human in front of him had not even reached the dead city and was frightened back halfway.
Despicable, treacherous, and greedy for life, human beings have always been like this.
This is the dark elf tribe's stereotype of humans, but this is also true for most humans.
There are intrigues among countries, politicians and ministers in the palace plot against each other for their own benefit, and most common people are greedy for life and afraid of death.
This is not only true for humans, but also for most races on the continent. Life is about seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
It's just that as a member of the Dark Elf clan, he doesn't want to admit that the same is true for his own race.
After all, in the Dark City, those guys in the Senate will do whatever it takes to stabilize their position.
"It was a worthwhile trip, I did get some valuable information!"
Chen Ping said slowly.
Hearing this, a look of disdain appeared in Eles's beautiful eyes. Even if she went to the Death City, she might not be able to gain anything.
And how can a human being obtain valuable information there? This must be bragging!
Originally, Iles had a good impression of Chen Ping. After all, Chen Ping was really strong. With a rank lower than his own, he was able to tie himself up. He also mastered forbidden arts and even possessed ancient elves. The clan’s sacred weapon.
However, even such people still have the bad nature of human beings.
All these judgments came from the fact that Eles did not believe that Chen Ping could run back and forth between the Black Tower Camp and the Dead City in such a short time.
However, her thoughts would soon change, and her attitude towards Chen Ping completely changed in an instant.
"I found an investigator from the Dark Elf tribe in the Dead City, and found some letters on his body. Moreover, when I arrived, he had not completely lost his mind, and I also learned about this from him. The Secret of the Second Plague.”
After saying this, Chen Ping took out some rags of clothing, which were enough to prove the identity of the investigator, followed by several letters. This was the content that Chen Ping imitated and rewritten after imitating the investigator's notes on the way back.
The nine-tailed fox was not only fast, but also extremely stable. Chen Ping rode on its back without feeling even the slightest bump, which also gave him time to forge these letters.
"How is this possible? How did you travel between Black Tower Mountain and the Dead City in such a short time?" Eles glanced at the letter.
She was not familiar with the investigator. She had only met him a few times. She had some impressions of the man's handwriting. The most important thing was that the clothes brought back by Chen Ping had the unique identity mark of the Dark Elf tribe. It was easy to distinguish between genuine and fake. Les was certain that these were indeed the investigators' clothing.
"I just know some magic to increase movement speed!" Chen Ping answered ambiguously.
At this critical moment, Eles naturally didn't care how Chen Ping did it. He only needed to make sure that the items were genuine, and that was enough.
"Apostle? Is this plague a conspiracy of the apostles?" Eles looked at the letter again.
Chen Ping omitted all the parts involving human beings. There were already conflicts between the two races, and adding these to it would only distract their attention.
Therefore, Chen Ping modified this information appropriately.
The seventh apostle, Plague, the source of the plague, in order to gain power, spread the plague and infected the dark elves. After death, the dark elves will provide energy for the apostles and trigger a war between the dark elves and humans. Through the war, , allowing the plague to spread quickly...
"These evil apostles!" Eles was so angry that her delicate body trembled.
"Right now, the most important thing is to organize the war!" Chen Ping said.
"No!" Eles took a deep breath and shook his head.
"Great human warrior, I can no longer hide it from you. In fact, the plague has begun to appear in the Dark Elf army that went to the principality. Many Dark Elf warriors have already died due to the plague!"
"Now, the most important thing is to stop the spread of the plague and find an antidote, otherwise the dark elves will be completely destroyed!" Eles replied in a deep voice.
"Is there a plague among the Dark Elf army?" Bo Qi was slightly startled.
If this thing is true, it will be able to slow down the Dark Elves' attack on Hutton City, and even the principality can win without a fight. However, this kind of plague may also appear in the principality, and the end may be the same as that of the Dark Elves. .
After a brief moment of rejoicing, Boqi became worried again.
"If I can find an antidote, can the Dark Elf clan stop the war?" Chen Ping asked.
"You...you have an antidote?"
"Of course it is possible. As long as the threat of the plague can be eliminated, the Dark Elves will withdraw their troops immediately!"
Elise answered without hesitation.
"Can you make the decision on such a big matter?"
"able!"
Eles nodded. Every second of delay, many Dark Elf warriors may die from the plague.
"As far as I know, the Senate has always been in charge of the battle. Especially now, the forces of the Senate have been able to compete with Her Majesty the Queen. I am afraid that even if Her Majesty the Queen comes forward, the Dark Elf army may not completely obey the orders, right?"
Chen Ping didn't want to help the dark elves and then they would continue to attack the principality. Wouldn't that be in vain?
Chen Ping did know something about the antidote for the plague.
This kind of plague also appeared once in the ancient elves, also caused by the apostles. At that time, nearly 70% of the elves died in the plague.
Until the wizards in the elves, after countless attempts, prepared the antidote and survived the crisis.
At the same time, the apostles were also temporarily sealed.
This time, the source of the plague, Pleg, has died, and his ability is temporarily in Jialu's body. As long as the antidote is made, the crisis of the dark elves can be overcome.
And this antidote is recorded in the ancient books left by the ancient elves.
However, too much time has passed, and the ancient elves have long been extinct. Today's elves have split into countless branches, but none of them has inherited the civilization of the ancient elves.
Fortunately, Chen Ping saw some ancient books of the ancient elves on the back of Tianmu Lingkun, which recorded how to make the antidote.
Speaking of which, the preparation of this antidote is not difficult, but it is a bit "cruel".
First of all, it requires the corpses of elves who have died for more than ten years, regardless of whether they are dark elves, light elves or other branches, as long as they have a trace of elf blood.
Combined with some special herbs, it can be refined into a pill.
Dissolve the pill in water, and the elves who drink it will be immune to this plague.
"This... What do you want the dark elves to do before they agree to give you the antidote?"
Elise was anxious, but he still tried to be respectful to Chen Ping.
"Take me to the Dark City, I want to see Her Majesty the Queen!"
Chen Ping replied.
"Okay, I'll take you to the Dark City now!" Elise nodded without hesitation.
Time was running out, so Chen Ping directly asked Elise to ride on the nine-tailed fox.
Fortunately, Jialu was petite and Elise was not heavy, so it did not affect the speed of the nine-tailed fox.
However, the back space of the nine-tailed fox was limited, so Elise could only lean against Chen Ping's back.
As the eldest princess of the dark elves, or the royal family of the dark elves, her beauty and figure are incomparable.
More importantly, Chen Ping suddenly felt a little bumpy, and the texture from his back seemed to be deeply massaged.
Elias's face had already turned red, and she was a little ashamed, but when she thought that her people were under the threat of the plague at this time, everything became a cloud.
For Elias, as long as the dark elves can survive, she will pay any price and bear it willingly.
Along the way, Chen Ping and others did not stop until they arrived in front of a barren mountain in the morning of the next day.
The entrance to the Dark City is hidden in the depths of this desolate mountain range.
It was a huge and slightly gloomy cave, surrounded by uneven rocks, which stretched out to the sky like the fangs of a ferocious beast.
Above the cave entrance, a huge rock hangs, as if it will fall at any time, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
On both sides of the entrance, ancient and mysterious runes were carved. The runes emitted a faint glow, as if telling the long history of the city.
The light flickered, like a ghost fire, which made people shudder.
There were also a large number of dark elf warriors guarding.
"Your Highness... Princess!" The guards who saw Elias were very surprised, especially when they saw the human race following her.
The dark elves were about to go to war with the human race. At this time, the princess brought a human into the Dark City, which inevitably made them suspicious.
"Get out of the way, I have an urgent matter and need to see Her Majesty the Queen!"
"Your Highness, the Queen ordered yesterday to block the Dark City. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"
"Nonsense, why didn't I receive this order?" Elias widened his eyes.
"Your Highness, this is an order issued by Her Majesty the Queen herself, please first..."
"Insolent!" Elias shouted angrily, took out the staff, and directly imprisoned all the guards.
"It must be the work of those guys in the Senate! No! Her Majesty is in danger!"
Elise looked nervous, and immediately took Chen Ping's hand without saying anything, and rushed into the Dark City with him.
The guards who came to intercept along the way were restrained by Elise.
Chen Ping followed Elise and walked into the cave, and a damp and cold breath hit him.
Stepping into the interior of the Dark City, the feeling of hugeness and grandeur hit him.
The streets of the city are wide and deep, paved with huge black stone slabs. Each stone slab is more than one person tall and engraved with complex patterns and patterns.
There are towering buildings on both sides of the street. These buildings have strange styles. Some are like huge Gothic spires, directly inserted into the top of the cave, and some are like huge animal horns, twisting and stretching around.
The center of the city is a huge circular square, and there is a huge statue in the center of the square.
The statue depicts a queen of the dark elves, holding a scepter, looking down at the whole city with a cold look.
The height of the statue almost occupies half of the square, and it is surrounded by circles of stairs, which are engraved with the historical stories of Dark City.
Across the square is the core of Dark City, the palace of Dark City!
