Chapter 675 -437 Pompey Clan Leader_2
This terrifying foundation is no wonder why those elves had never thought that someone would want to destroy the entire Elf Royal Court.
“Mr. Lis, we are leaving now, I hope you enjoy your life at the Royal Court!”
At this moment, many elves came over to say goodbye to Lis, including the elves Bella and Mil, who had a particularly good relationship with Lis.
“What is this?”
Lis, seeing them preparing to leave, asked curiously.
“We usually live in the camp outside the city in the forest. Now that we have arrived at Jonor City, we will go straight back.”
Bella pointed to the forest formed by the gathering of the Elf Ancient Trees and said with a smile:
“Mr. Lis, if you are free, you should come and visit us!”
After Lis nodded in acknowledgment, he watched as Bella and the others left together.
Since there were no survivors in the entire Elf Royal Court, it also meant that the forest outside the city was not safe either…
Lis glanced in the direction Bella and the others had left, then followed Ricardo and others towards the interior of the Elf Royal Court.
It seemed that they had been notified in advance, as the guards at the Royal Court’s gate did not scrutinize much. After saluting Ricardo, they cleared the way.
As a human, Lis did cause some surprise among them, but they did not say much.
As he stepped through the frost-traced bluestone walls of the Elf Royal Court, Lis, who was eagerly listening to Cecil introduce the Elf Royal Court, felt a slight dizziness.
“Hmm?”
Lis instantly became alert and checked his body but found no other abnormalities.
What was this, a security measure of the Elf Royal Court?
Cecil noticed Lis had stopped and asked worriedly,
“What’s wrong, Lis?”
“It’s nothing, just that it’s my first time at the Elf Royal Court, and I’m a bit astonished.”
Lis shook his head, dismissing his previous confusion.
But what Lis said was indeed true; compared to Jade City, the Elf Royal Court had an entirely different style, possessing an ancient and serene aura.
Cecil wanted to say something else to Lis, but at that moment, Ricardo came over and said:
“Lis, come with me first to meet the clan leader, he is already waiting for you.”
“Is that so?”
Lis nodded his head, and although he felt something was off, he still followed Ricardo.
Seeing this, Cecil could only follow behind the others helplessly, heading to the safe residence specially prepared for them by the Illiser Family.
…
Lis walked on the cobblestone path, where there weren’t many pedestrians around, and it lacked the plethora of storefronts like Jade City.
He saw some elves leisurely taking a walk, who would specially come forward to greet Ricardo when they saw him.
Apart from the secured guards at the entrance of the Elf Royal Court, Lis didn’t feel even a hint of tension in the atmosphere.
“Elder Ricardo, wasn’t it said that there were serious problems in the Elf Royal Court?”
“Why does it seem so peaceful now?”
Lis asked, looking at Ricardo beside him.
If it weren’t for some Elf Warriors following behind to protect Ricardo, Lis would even doubt if there had really been an attack on the Sun Elves.
“I’m not very sure.”
Ricardo said calmly, then explained:
“When I came back just now, I asked others. There haven’t been any more attacks on family members since I left for the Bolin Kingdom to call back the other Sun Elves.”
“Many people thought those who attacked the Sun Elves had already left, so they breathed a sigh of relief.”
“…What do you think?”
Lis had not expected this reason, and his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“Of course not, since someone is attacking Cecil and his companions, it also proves that they have not given up.”
Ricardo nodded, continuing:
“I think they are just plotting a bigger conspiracy.”
“I believe that is what Clan Leader Pompey also thinks, so the blockade of the Elf Royal Court is still ongoing.”
That is to say, the order to blockade the Elf Royal Court was a decision made by the Illiser clan leader.
Lis kept this in mind, then heard Ricardo continue:
“Clan Leader Pompey is also quite distressed by this matter, so there might be some matters that will trouble you, Lis.”
Having witnessed Lis’s strength and initially valuing him due to the Elf Goddess’s blessing, Ricardo now regarded Lis as a peer.
Thus, he kindly warned Lis in advance.
Lis nodded slightly, his curiosity piqued about this Illiser clan leader.
Or rather, this Clan Leader Pompey seemed somewhat suspicious to him.
Though the Elf Royal Court was quite large, most of the buildings were rather low, so Lis soon saw the Illiser family’s location.
In the central core of the Elf Royal Court, a majestic Elf construction stood tall, its entire facade dazzled like the sun in shining gold, with a soaring spire in the center around which were carved intricate and exquisite patterns, each line seemingly containing profound magic and ancient wisdom, highly conspicuous compared to the surrounding buildings predominantly in green and white.
Under the sunlight, the tower’s body shimmered with a faint golden light, adding an element of divinity and solemnity, while around the spire lay several Life Ancient Trees, their subtle Life Power enveloping the spire, rendering it even more sublime.
Lis noted these details, could it not be the Sun Elf Family?
Prefering the golden brilliance resembling the sun?
Lis could confirm that this building belonging to Illiser was almost entirely fashioned from real gold.
Quite a grand undertaking!
Ricardo noticed Lis’s surprise but did not explain much, just sighed slightly as he led Lis towards the spire.
Unknown what means the Illiser family had used, the entire building was filled with a rich Magic Power, somewhat similar to the headquarters of the Pan-Continent Magic Association, even taking a Magic Elevator up to the spire.
It was clear how deeply the Elf Clan had delved into magic research.
Under the guidance of an Elf servant, Lis and Ricardo headed to the upper levels of the spire.
Lis felt as if the Magic Elevator had nearly reached the tip of the spire, and upon exiting, they faced a room with an open door.
Lis and Ricardo stepped into this room, and the first thing that struck them was a scene of golden splendor, the lavish decorations dazzlingly intricate, every detail exuding extreme luxury, additionally adorned with complex and exquisite Elf designs.
The gold-crafted furniture radiated brilliant light, from the intricate tables and chairs to the splendid beds, each piece exuding an aura of true grandeur.
Yet, what captivated most in this room was a small balcony. The balcony was adorned with soft cushions and a delicate tea table, creating a comfortable leisure space. From Lis’s viewpoint, the entire beauty of the Elf Royal Court was in full view, standing there felt as if the whole city was at his feet.
After scanning this extremely luxurious room, Lis’s attention was drawn to the gold-haired Elf sitting behind the desk.
This middle-aged Elf had handsome features, like a sculpture of fine art, his golden eyes twinkling enthrallingly, his dignity undeniable even when he slightly squinted. His golden hair, like forged gold, each strand shimmering brilliantly, seemed to dance with sunlight.
His stature was erect, not like the common Elf, his presence strong and domineering, as if an invisible force made one unconsciously respect him upon feeling his presence.
This middle-aged Elf man existed as dazzlingly and fervently as the sun!
This was the Illiser Clan Leader, Pompey Illiser!
Noticing someone had entered, Pompey put down his golden pen and lifted his head to look.
“You’ve worked hard, Ricardo!”
Pompey stood up, nodding at Ricardo as a greeting, then turned his gaze towards Lis.
“I am glad you could come here, Mr. Lis!”
At that moment, Lis felt his heart beating a few beats faster.
