Chapter 716: Chapter 457 “Full Moon Protection” and Elf Sage
Chapter 716: Chapter 457 “Full Moon Protection” and Elf Sage
Inside the Elf Holy Hall,
Adela’s cool voice resonated, though as melodious as before, yet it carried a solemnity like the evening drum or the morning bell to Lis’s ears.
She was no longer the Elf High Priest, but now the Moon and Guardian Goddess Fenrir!
“You’ve done well, bestowing you with power was indeed the right decision,”
Fenrir scrutinized Lis standing before Her, her gaze carrying an inexplicable meaning.
In a way, by granting Lis the power of Divine Protection, it was as if She had marked him as belonging to Goddess Fenrir.
Generally speaking, in the eyes of other Divine Beings, Lis was seen as one of Goddess Fenrir’s own, not equivalent to a Favored, but not far from it either.
However, when Fenrir saw Lis again, She found the divine aura on him exceedingly complex.
Besides the trace of Her own Divine Power, there were also the essences of the God of Darkness and Blood, Cain, and the powers of that great being.
Fenrir, unlike those new gods who ascended to the Divine Throne later, was born as a First Generation Moon Elf from the World Tree Yggdrasil and had spent immensely long years as a deity.
The name of Cain had long vanished in the Gaia World, perhaps long absent from the Temple of the Gods, but Fenrir could still discern that the aura on Lis belonged to this ancient deity.
Although curious about how Lis had gotten involved with this vanished deity, Fenrir was no longer concerned about that.
She had actually sensed the essence of the Mother Tree from Lis!
This was the most intimate life essence she had felt when She was newly born, the one that had protected Her growth.
The one that bore Her, nourished Her!
To the current Elves, the World Tree might be a sublime existence, elusive and unapproachable, but for Fenrir, the World Tree Yggdrasil was akin to Her mother.
Although the World Tree Yggdrasil had disappeared from the world after its perfection, Fenrir knew well that the Mother Tree had not vanished with time but was hidden in the most mysterious place in the Gaia World, the Space of the World Heart.
Very occasionally, the Elf Gods, who were closely connected with the World Tree, could still sense its presence.
Fenrir thought She could no longer feel the presence of the World Tree either; after all, even the formidable power of the Elf Main God Correlon couldn’t touch the World Heart, let alone others.
But now, She truly sensed from Lis the long-lost life essence of the World Tree Yggdrasil.
This vibrant essence was so familiar, as pure as the dew-laden green sprouts in the early morning.
But…
Recalling what Lis had reported to Her about Demogorgon, Fenrir had a foreboding feeling.
Her fine eyebrows slightly furrowed, Her gaze on Lis became increasingly focused.
Lis felt the scrutiny from the deity, and though no power descended upon him, an increasingly heavy oppression seemed to weigh on his spirit.
He knew this was not because Goddess Fenrir harbored any hostility towards him, but simply because the divine tier’s power greatly surpassed his own, and Her mere gaze imparted immense pressure on Lis.
But that was all it was, for Lis had faced deities countless times, and the many specialties and abilities he had acquired allowed him not to collapse under the influence of a divine incarnation’s power.
Just this fact alone placed him much above many Gold-level professionals.

“Lis, you’ve done very well this time!”
After a moment of silence, Fenrir’s cold voice addressed Lis,
“I will bestow more upon you, but now I want to know what exactly happened in the Elf Royal Court?”
As the voice of Goddess Fenrir rang out, Lis felt the oppressive sensation from his soul completely dissolving.
“Yes!”
Lis thought for a moment, sorted his thoughts, and then narrated all his experiences within the Elf Royal Court.
This time, aside from concealing his foreknowledge about Demogorgon’s plan and the existence of the system, whether it was why he entered the Elf Royal Court, how he was affected by the Mystery Lock Illusion of the Royal Court, how he successfully escaped, and his subsequent return to rescue Cecil, he detailed everything to the Goddess Fenrir standing before him.
Fenrir just quietly stood there, silently listening to Lis’s descriptions.
Though Her expression did not change, Lis, for some reason, felt the oppressive aura around the Elf Goddess reducing.
As soon as Lis mentioned his discovery of Demogorgon using Abyss Power to corrupt the World Tree and his intervention to stop it, Fenrir’s inner rage was almost unbearable.
For Her, a deity with Medium Divine Power, there were not many concerns left.
But that was the World Tree!
That was Her mother, Yggdrasil!
Only now did Fenrir finally understand why Demogorgon had targeted the Elf Royal Court; he actually aimed to corrupt Yggdrasil with Abyss Power!
For the Elf Gods, the destruction of the Elf Royal Court certainly enraged them, but the corruption of the World Tree by Abyss Power was even more intolerable!
Despite this, Fenrir still quietly listened to the whole process described by Lis without interrupting.
When Lis reached the part where he was pulled into the Space of the World Heart by the World Tree itself and received a new power through the World Tree’s baptism, becoming one of the World Tree’s Favored, Fenrir’s countenance softened significantly.
