Chapter 678 -439 World Tree Illusion and Cognitive Bias
Elf Royal Court, the Illiser Family,
After leaving Pompey’s room, Lis followed Ricardo down.
“I didn’t expect the clan leader to entrust the ring to you,”
Ricardo glanced at the Gold Ring on Lis’s hand and sighed slightly,
“But I think Pompey clan leader is right, now you might be the most suitable to do this.”
Lis shook his head, although he was somewhat puzzled, he didn’t say much.
It seemed that the entire Elf Royal Court was still relatively normal, having prepared some backups in advance, safety should still be no issue.
When Lis and Ricardo came out of the Magic Elevator, they saw several elves with golden hair and golden eyes walking in from outside.
“Elder Ricardo, long time no see.”
One of the elf youths said to Ricardo.
Ricardo nodded,
“Long time no see, Sifu.”
Seeing this, Lis also stopped and stood beside Ricardo.
Because of the Destruction of the Elf Court in a previous life, players had hardly delved into the storyline related to the Elf Royal Court.
Lis didn’t recognize these Day Elves in front of him, but the aura exuding from Sifu, the Day Elf, was quite impressive.
Not inferior to Ricardo, but obviously much younger than him.
“Who is this?”
Sifu looked at Lis standing beside Ricardo and asked with a smile.
“This gentleman is a guest invited by clan leader Pompey, Mr. Lis.”
Ricardo frowned slightly, but still introduced him to the other.
“Pleased to meet you, Mr. Lis.”
Sifu extended his hand, smiling at Lis.
Especially noticing the ring on Lis’s hand, the smile on his face warmed up a few more degrees.
“Hello.”
Lis responded neutrally to the handshake from the Day Elf, feeling an odd sensation about this Day Elf before him.
He was cautious of everyone in the Elf Royal Court, including both Ricardo and Pompey.
Seeing this, Sifu didn’t pursue further, chatting briefly with Ricardo before leaving.
Watching Sifu and a few Day Elves leave, Lis said to Ricardo:
“That one just now, he seems quite powerful too!”
“Truly worthy of the Illiser Family!”
Upon hearing this, Ricardo shook his head and said,
“Sifu’s Talent in the family is indeed remarkable, but usually he’s a bit too confident.”
That odd feeling Sifu had given him, was it because of his disregard for a possible attack?
Lis felt something was off. When in Acot City, learning from Ricardo about the Day Elves of the Illiser Family facing attacks, he thought the situation in the Elf Royal Court was already very dire.
But now, it seemed that both the ordinary residents of the Elf Royal Court and the people of the Illiser Family were treating the matter lightly.
This discrepancy was quite different from the seriousness and urgency Ricardo had previously shown.
It made Lis feel slightly disjointed.
Even Pompey, who Lis felt was quite reasonable and took the matter seriously, seemed normal.
But even so, to entrust such a crucial matter pertaining to the Elf Royal Court to Lis, something felt off.
“Let’s go, Mr. Lis,”
said Ricardo to Lis:
“You must be tired from the journey; I’ll take you to a place to rest.”
“It’s been many days since this matter passed by and it’s not urgent at this moment, especially since Pompey also mentioned that the ‘Premonition Ring’ trigger requires a certain opportunity.”
Lis nodded and followed Ricardo outside.
At this moment, in a dark corner of the Illiser Tower, a pair of eyes was staring at Lis and Ricardo walking away.
The gaze was firmly focused on Lis.
“Lis?”
“Quite a troublesome young fellow, has he guessed something?”
“In that case… it’s not yet time to act.”
“There’s Stephens’ scent about him, really troublesome!”
A moment later, the darkness returned to quiet, though a faint hint of crimson persisted in the profound darkness.
Arriving in a courtyard on the eastern side of the Elf Royal Court.
This courtyard had quite the style of Pompey, though it was an elf tree house, its area was rather spacious and the décor inside was quite luxurious.
“Lis, this is the place where our Illiser Family hosts esteemed guests; you should be able to rest here for the time being without any problems.”
“If you need anything, just let the servant take care of it.”
Ricardo introduced it to Lis.
In fact, with his status, he didn’t need to do these things himself.
But knowing that Lis also possessed the power of the Extraordinary Domain, he paid much more attention to Lis.
Elves are proud, and Day Elves even more so.
But when facing a true genius, they would set aside their pride and prejudice and interact amicably.
Sifu was like this, and Ricardo even more so.
“Thank you, Elder Ricardo.”
Lis nodded; although he was not too particular about his lodgings, he was quite satisfied with this temporary residence.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Ricardo stood up and left.
Once Ricardo was far away, Lis first inspected the room briefly and then sat at the desk to replay and recall the day’s experiences.
