Chapter 417 Queen Freya, the most precious treasure
The relationship between Vanaheim and Alfheim is very special.
The relationship between the two countries is a relationship maintained by blood relations.
Since ancient times, the best way to maintain two countries is undoubtedly marriage and blood.
This is the genetic code engraved on the species of the universe.
God King Frey and Queen Freya are both descendants of Niord, and they have half of their own elven blood.
This makes the two of them have the inheritance rights of two countries from the day they were born.
Eventually, Frey became the God-King of Vanaheim, and his sister Freya became the queen of Alfheim.
Their mother is a goddess from Alfheim who has the ability to naturally communicate with magic.
Frey did not inherit this ability, Freya did.
She is the most sensitive person to magic in this world, and even in the entire universe.
She was the first to notice the change in the source of magic power.
After Queen Freya noticed the problem with the source of magic, she found the sages and asked them to go to the universe to find a solution.
This has been going on for many years.
When Nathan returned to his hometown, he was filled with excitement, but also worry and sadness.
When he left, the Elf Mother Tree was still lush. Although there were reports from various places that there were some problems with the trunk of the mother tree, it was not like it is now.
Only a short time had passed, not even enough time for an elf to grow up, before the elf mother tree entered a countdown to death.
Nathan felt heavy. The plan he made was based on the assumption that the source of magic power had not dissipated.
There is only a powerful magic power, which stimulates the sleeping magic heart like an electric shock and wakes it up.
But now, the problem with the source of magic power seems not to be sleeping, but a more terrifying death.
"Sage Nathan, we are entering destruction." Sage Habakak sighed.
"In the long history of history, the Elf Mother Tree has never been like it is now, whether it is windy or snowy."
Habakak shook his head and said, "This is the twilight of the elves."
"Queen Freya's body also began to decay along with the mother tree. She has the ability to communicate with nature. The pain caused by the death caused her to fall into a deep sleep."
Nathan looked sad. No wonder they couldn't even see the protective barrier of Alfheim when they came back.
In order to save the consumption of magic power, Sage Habakak closed all the doors related to the safety of Alfheim.
Now they can only pray to nature, hoping to get a response.
Nathan asked the young elves to leave, and he and John headed to the source of magic.
This is the last hope.
The other sage is missing. He may be wandering in the universe, or he may have died long ago.
The queen couldn't wait that long, so Nathan had no choice but to give it a try.
"Sorry, maybe our promise can't be fulfilled." Nathan said with a heavy heart, "The knowledge of elves is recorded in the Elf Mother Tree."
"You can take as much as you can."
Nathan sighed, "We will wait for the magic to die together with this world."
"There is no need to be so pessimistic." John walked in front and said casually, "On the way here, I took a look and found that the magic power is not lost, but recovered."
While walking, John stopped and looked back at Nathan, who was already standing there blankly.
Nathan asked blankly: "Recycle?"
John nodded and said, "Do you know about springs?"
"When you press it flat and release it, you can see the spring jump higher."
"But some springs will be directly crushed." John shrugged casually.
Nathan hurriedly asked, "Is there any way to know what the situation is in Alfheim?"
"I guess we need to get there first."
John pointed to the place with the strongest magic in the Kingdom of Elves.
Source of magic.
The vegetation here also began to wither, and John saw a plant similar to devil's ivy.
But unfortunately, that thing has lost its magic power now and is as motionless as a vine.
This is a defensive measure set up to prevent intrusion by outsiders.
Unfortunately, without magic power, these things are useless.
Nathan's heart twitched again, even the plants close to the source of magic were like this. How dangerous is the source of magic now?
The Elf Sage personally opened the way for John, an honor that even God King Frey did not have.
In the kingdom of elves, the title of sage represents wisdom, and is a being that even the queen needs to respect.
God King Frey also showed great respect to Nathan.
All the obstructing vegetation was swept away under the staff in Nathan's hand.
In the past, Nathan only needed a magic spell to do this.
But save whatever you can to save the Queen.
After two and a half hours of walking.
They arrived inside the roots of the Elf Mother Tree, which is the area where the magic power comes from.
It is green as emerald spring water.
The warm luster, the spring water is calm, like death.
Use death to describe a landscape, which is a kind of silence.
John's eyes fell on the stone platform in the center of the spring, the woman whose body was half submerged in the water.
He looked slightly startled.
Not because of Queen Freya's beauty, but because this person looks a lot like Daphne.
Her long blond hair seemed to glow. If it weren't for the pointy ears that were more distinctive than ordinary people, it could be said that she was 90% similar to Daphne.
"Queen Freya." Nathan saw the queen, who was still able to stay awake before he left.
It had only been so long, but Queen Freya had already lost the ability to stay awake.
"Freya?"
John narrowed his eyes. Although he looked similar to Daphne, he was not Daphne after all.
He reached out and touched the source of magic.
The rich magic power is amazing, but it is too little scattered throughout the entire Elf Kingdom.
John closed his eyes, magic flowing from his fingertips.
The Witch King's magic is in contact with the source of magic.
Nothing happens.
after awhile.
John just opened his eyes.
Nathan asked hurriedly, "How is it?"
John looked at Nathan strangely. This man obviously brought a solution, but he looked like he didn't know anything.
"Same as you originally planned," John said with a raised eyebrow, "It requires an external magic power as a tonic."
Nathan's face lit up with joy when he heard this.
But within a few seconds of appearing, his expression darkened again.
"My original plan was based on the fact that the source of magic power was not completely asleep."
Nathan said: "With the current situation of the magic source, it may take several times or even dozens of times the originally planned magic power to awaken it."
"That must be a super powerful magic, even more difficult than awakening a black sun."
The good news is, his plan can work.
The bad news is that executing the plan is dozens of times more difficult.
"Odin's attitude is unclear," Nathan said with a gloomy expression.
Nathan cannot participate because his magic comes from the magic source, which means that once they use powerful magic, they will draw the last magic from the magic source.
This is likely to cause the source of magic to completely fall asleep before the magic is cast.
"God King Frey is coming, but even with him, it's not enough."
Nathan was getting desperate.
If Odin is willing to come, then there is still hope for them.
But Odin seems determined not to come to help.
Just when he felt hopeless, John interrupted his random thoughts.
"This job is very challenging for me," John said meaningfully. "Following the principle of equivalent exchange, the conditions need to be appropriately improved."
When Nathan heard this at first, he thought it was a normal asking price.
He sighed and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Wick, this matter cannot be completed."
"You don't have to worry about that." John waved his hand and said, "As long as the exchange of equal value is followed, I don't mind helping."
"Even with your help, we still..." As soon as the helpless smile appeared on Nathan's face, he stopped.
He looked up at John, his expression gradually losing control.
"What did you say?"
Nathan stared at John, "What can you do?"
"Your method is very useful, I said it." John shrugged, "Use magic to awaken the source of magic."
"But this requires magic..."
He stopped and slowly raised his head, "You mean, you use magic?"
"I think you don't want the source of magic power to dry up completely." John said lightly, "Of course it's me."
"Sir Wick." Nathan hesitated.
"I know what you want to say."
John glanced at him and said, "As long as you are willing to pay enough."
For John, that powerful magic was not a problem.
It can even be said that that is what he is good at.
Most of John's magic is used for attacking.
For defense, except for the commonly used Iron Armor Curse, others are rarely used.
Even if John is willing, he can summon the Rainbow Bridge through the celestial ball and directly use magic initiation to forcefully awaken the sleeping soul of the source of magic.
"If Mr. Wick can do it..." Nathan bowed his head deeply, "The Kingdom of Elves is willing to offer the most precious treasure."
The most precious treasure?
John thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Really?"
"Really!" Nathan nodded vigorously.
His tone was certain, which made John unsure.
"Don't you discuss it with others?"
The most precious treasure of the Kingdom of Elves is given away as soon as you say it?
Nathan hesitated, glanced at Queen Freya, gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what the outcome is, I can guarantee it."
"Okay, then I promise you."
John, who originally just wanted to read a book, decided to increase the price after seeing the situation here.
After all, it is very difficult for him to awaken the source of magic in a world.
Since Nathan was so sincere, John agreed.
Is it possible that the land of elves also has something similar to the divine book?
John began to look forward to it a little.
But the top priority is that he still has to complete his transaction first.
He slowly walked towards the source of magic power.
"Be careful." As soon as Nathan spoke, he saw that John had already stepped inside safely.
The high concentration of magic power from the magic source is like poison to ordinary magicians.
But for John, it was too normal, on the contrary, it was a bit comfortable.
He began to have some doubts. It seemed that he had been unable to get through water since he came to the Nine Kingdoms.
Putting the strange thoughts behind him, John walked forward step by step.
The spring water never let him sink.
Walking to the middle of the magic source, where Queen Freya was, John glanced at Queen Freya.
He raised his wand.
He has many methods.
However, he chooses the most direct.
The right hand is covered in silver.
Four gems lit up.
John smiled slightly, "It's time to wake up."
...
