Chapter 638: Elina: I Just Ran Out!

Chapter 638: Chapter 636: Elina: I Just Ran Out!

Ever since she escaped from Candia’s surveillance protection, Elina felt much more at ease.

After bidding farewell to Hilia, she returned to the Elf Royal City and secretly observed the actions of the Elf King from a distance.

Of course, her observation was from afar, not daring to get close.

However, in the Royal City, any movement by the Elf Royal Court could be immediately reported back.

Once she confirmed that the Elf Royal Court’s pollution control had seen some success, she relaxed a bit.

“Although there’s no solution to the pollution yet, isolating it and treating the sick is progressing smoothly. As for a complete solution to the pollution… Sigh, I can’t manage it alone. Maybe wait until Hilia thinks of a way to exile all the pollution before discussing it.”

Elina sighed inwardly and then escaped from the Elf Royal Court, nervously and excitedly exploring other cities in the Elf Forest.

She went to cities where Hilia hadn’t carried out treatments, secretly inspecting the situation and covertly treating some critically ill patients until Hilia returned to Mandela Town to purify once again, then vanished.

It was then that she arrived at the Mountain Forest City, located in the border region.

“Miss Luo Feier has already left. It’s a pity she only purified one city before leaving. I arrived a bit late, otherwise, I could have met her.”

Elina thought, looking towards the direction of Ista.

She planned to head to Ista again to see how they purified the pollution; if she could learn something, perhaps the Elf Race would be saved.

Just as she prepared to leave Mountain Forest City for Ista, a communication from Hilia came through.

Her bracelet projected Hilia’s hologram in front of her, and Elina curiously asked, “Hilia? Is something wrong?”

Hilia smiled slightly, “Can’t I contact you if there’s nothing wrong?”

“Of course you can!” Elina exclaimed happily, but after pausing, she added, “However, I think Hilia wouldn’t contact me without a reason… so, what’s up?”

“I might have to temporarily end my free lifestyle,” Hilia said.

Elina tilted her head, a question mark popping up above it.

“What do you mean?”

“Remember the demons under the pollution source?”

“Uh…”

“They’ve become very active and are surging towards the pollution source. In other words, the beast tide you guys thought might erupt in the future is about to break out early.”

Elina’s eyes widened, her expression blank: “Huh?”

The little elf looked confused and after a while, murmured, “Really?”

Hilia chuckled, “Whether it’s true or not, you could go and see for yourself at the pollution source… Oh, perhaps they haven’t figured it out yet because the restless area is a bit distance from the pollution source, probably takes a few days.”

“How large is the scale of the beast tide?” Elina quickly asked.

“Not big, just all the underground demons would surge out.”

“You call that not big?”

Elina immediately felt tense, instinctively wanting to contact the Elf Elders near the pollution source but hesitated.

“No, at this point… I no longer want to work with the Elf Royal Court; their style and confidence make me thoroughly loathe them…”

“Given the beast tide attack is more dangerous than the pollution wave, the Elf King must have a preventive plan. Whether I remind them or not shouldn’t make much difference…”

“Wait, if I can help them prepare a day earlier, they could deploy a day earlier…”

“Currently working near the pollution source seems to be Elder Louis. As the forest purifier, Louis should not have the inexplicable arrogance of the Elf Royal Family…”

Hilia looked at Elina’s dilemma and said nothing.

This moment is best left undisturbed, let her come to her own realization; any interference might have the opposite effect.

Elina mumbled as she started to pace back and forth restlessly.

After a long while, she stomped her foot, “Damn Elf Royal Family, they ought to die as many as possible.”

Then, she took out another bracelet, contacting Louis at the encampment near the pollution source.

She didn’t cut off the connection with Hilia while contacting Louis, and Hilia thought for a while, altering her appearance to the ‘Xi’ known to the Elf Royal Court, then agreed to Elina connecting her communication with Louis, creating a group chat format.

Louis, upon seeing the unfamiliar communication with Elina behind it, paused and surprisedly asked, “Elina?”

Then he saw another hologram, paused again, “Xi?”

He didn’t know Elina and Hilia weren’t in the same place, since the ‘group chat’ projection wouldn’t reveal locations.

So, he naturally thought Elina was currently with Hilia.

Louis showed an expression of realization, “Oh, you guys are together, the King has been frantically looking for you lately, Elina, where are you?”

Elina said, “Where I am, for the time being, can’t be disclosed. Elder Louis, I’m primarily contacting you to deliver a message.”

“What message?” Louis hesitated for a moment, ultimately did not choose to trace Elina’s location through Star Spirit Network’s ‘netline’.

Elina looked at Hilia, saying, “Xi… brought a message: the beast tide we’ve been worrying about is coming.”

Louis paused, “Beast tide? Impossible, we’ve been researching those underground demons for a while, unless we kill a certain number of demons inside, making them frenzied, they won’t become agitated, forming a beast tide. Time until they leave underground is still far away.”

As the frontline researcher, Louis naturally knew the situation of the beast group near the pollution source underground.

Those demons have not shown any intent to attack the surface.

On the contrary, under their deliberate hunting and Hilia’s previous massive hunts, the activity range of demons near the pollution source expanded, resources increased, causing them to enter a tranquil period, hibernating and waiting for their population to rise before considering causing trouble.

Therefore, Louis’s first reaction to Elina’s beast tide claim was disbelief.

Elina had anticipated his response, she looked to Hilia, saying, “Maybe you don’t believe me, but if the message was brought by Xi, who once killed many demons?”

Louis looked at Hilia’s hologram next to him, asking, “Miss Xi, is it true what Elina said?”

Hilia nodded, not speaking.

Louis furrowed his brow, “Could there be any evidence?”

Hilia shook her head.

Elina said, “No evidence, but I believe Miss Xi… I’m contacting you, thinking you might believe us. If I contacted the Elf King or Candia, they definitely wouldn’t believe us… if you don’t believe, there’s nothing I can do, suit yourself.”

Louis pondered for a moment, then said, “I’m willing to believe you, demon changes can’t be conjectured by common sense, but whether the King believes… I can’t be sure either.”

“Hmph, believe it or not. If another pollution arises, it’s none of my business then.”

With that, Elina decisively cut off the communication.
