The tree of life is very rare. There are less than one hundred trees of life known to exist in the world, and each tree supports a huge elf tribe.
There are also differences in the tree of life. The highest-level tree of life is undoubtedly the World Tree Il Seth standing at the foot of the Danangjin Mountains in the north. The huge Ilseth Elf Empire was established on the basis of Ilseth and the dozens of trees of life around it, raising a population of 20 million elves.
The next level is the Tree of Eternity. There are only four trees of eternity that exist in the world. Two of them are Ilseth's companion trees, and one is on the Shire continent south of the Southern Cross Sea, which is only a month's flight away from Comilla. There is another one, which is Nancy in the central mountain range. Nancy's elf royal court was built on the basis of that eternal tree.
The lowest level is the tree of life. Most of the trees of life survive in the Ilseth Forest. In the Central Mountain Range and Shire Continent, there may be more than ten trees in total. Except for these three places, the tree of life has never been seen anywhere else.
Therefore, in Cecilia's mind, the sudden appearance of the so-called envoy, as well as the tree of life Auriana, which seemed to appear out of nowhere on the desert island of Comilla, seemed to be gifts from the gods.
Cecilia is a standard religious fanatic, but Patience is not. Even, what she believed in was not Helo, but Elune, the goddess of the moon. Of course, although she doesn't believe in Helo, she still has a deep respect for the great father of elves. The main god she believes in, the goddess of the moon, Elune, is also Helo's second wife.
Patience is a secular ranger general, she has to consider not only religion, but also many practical things. Although the will of the gods cannot be defied or questioned, she really dare not relax until she meets the envoy who is about to lead them. She looked at the carnival elves, sighed, and thought to herself: "We can't stand any more storms... I hope that envoy is someone we can rely on."
She could only think so in her heart, and she didn't even dare to say it, otherwise, Cecilia next to her would be angry.
…
In the early morning, Dane stood on the sentry tower of Ghost Knife Port, tiptoeing to look towards the north, beside him stood Eslore, and under the watchtower, there were twenty or thirty elves gathered together, looking towards the north. Looking from afar. Not long after the sacrificial ceremony last evening, the news that the gift of the gods will come from the sea in the early morning of this morning has spread throughout the whole of Auriel City—of course, it is so easy to spread , mainly because of the small population of Aurinadu, only forty or fifty elves.
Knowing that there will be a gift from the gods, people are very curious, so in the early morning of this morning, they gathered together one after another, waiting eagerly.
"Why don't you come?" Dane was also a little anxious, and he asked Asrael next to him.
"Don't worry, what should come will come naturally. Since the gods have a will, they will definitely carry it out."
Dane shut up and continued to look into the distance.
As time passed, Comilla Island in late autumn was not cold at all, and the sea breeze was blowing on people, which was very comfortable. But waiting like this is really boring. After a long time of no response, people's enthusiasm gradually faded.
The first to disperse were the female slaves and mercenaries. Many of them, yesterday evening, had listened to the sacrificial ceremony presided over by Esrael in the temple of Aurenadu. Although they were not yet Hilo's believers, they were potential development targets. After experiencing yesterday's ceremony, they can only say that they have a little affection for God Xiluo for the time being. They gathered here just to try something new. After waiting for such a long time, the enthusiasm is gone, so they will naturally disperse .
Most of those still under the sentry tower are elves. These people are the faithful believers of the gods. They were guided from other worlds by the divine guide tree tower. Although their beliefs are different, the elven gods of the multiverse are all figured out. Among the belief systems of elves in almost all worlds, Father Helo is Having the highest status, they are willing to wait, naturally because of their faith.
But the waiting time was indeed a bit too long, so that those elves were a little impatient. Except for some elves who believed in Hilo, the others showed more or less complaining expressions.
Dane didn't complain, but he was still unavoidably anxious. He kept looking into the distance, looking forward to the so-called godsend.
"I'm coming!"
Hearing the faint commotion of the elves below, Dane looked forward and saw a sea ship full of elves' style, which had just appeared from the horizon and was slowly approaching Ghost Knife Port.
Dane was somewhat disappointed: "Is this a gift from the gods?"
Esther said: "Yes."
"I thought there was a golden light falling, and there would be angels coming to the world."
Esther said: "That's a miracle, not a gift. My lord, what do you need most now, aren't resources and population? Illusory miracles are of course not as valuable as real gifts."
Dane nodded and said, "You're right."
He walked down from the sentry tower and called Delin and Tommy: "Take our people and line up! Let's welcome visitors from afar!"
Two squadrons of mercenaries stood on both sides, and three squadrons of naked sword dancers covered in tattoos followed closely behind Dane. The wharf of Ghost Knife Port has just been built, and this elf ship in the distance is the first foreign ship that Ghost Knife Port welcomes.
After a while, the elf ship landed firmly on the pier. At this moment, the people on the shore can already see the elves standing on the deck. The elves of Aurianadu enthusiastically waved to the new compatriots on board, and the elves on the Jinxiangye were also very excited.
A few planks were set up from the elf ship. The first to come out was a group of rangers wearing dark green cloaks and carrying bows and arrows. The leader was a tall, blond man who seemed to be the leader of the group of elves. The person, of course, was Patience. Along with the ranger, there was another one, the priestess Cecilia, who followed Patience.
Cecilia had never seen Dane before, but when she looked out on the deck, she immediately recognized that this strong man in brown clothes should be the favored one mentioned in the revelation. will be their future leaders. So, she pulled Patience, quickly walked towards Dane, and knelt down in front of him!
