Upon hearing this.
A trace of panic unexpectedly appeared on Sillor's face.
Given Sillor's character as the Dark Elf Queen, such an emotion was impossible.
She turned her head to look at Lu Ran.
Perhaps she was anxious because her identity might affect Lu Ran's task completion.
So.
Before Lu Ran could reply, Sillor stood up.
She said solemnly, "Although I am the Dark Elf Queen, the Dark Elves have now returned to the Elf Forest and once again bask in the radiance of the Life Divine Tree. The Dark Elves and the Natural Elves are not adversaries."
Oh?
Baron was taken aback, looking at Sillor in surprise.
He did not expect this.
When did the fate entanglement between the Dark Elves and the Natural Elves get resolved?
"If you don't believe it, this mark doesn't lie," Sillor said.
Then, she shook the wings on her back.
She turned around, and her upper garment slightly slipped, revealing her fair neck. In the area close to her jade-like back, there was a special mark symbol.
When Baron saw the mark, his expression changed slightly.
As someone from the Natural Elves' once closest allied race, he certainly recognized this mark, a mark bathed by the Life Divine Tree!
Although Baron couldn't understand why the Dark Elves and the Natural Elves had reconciled.
But the mark doesn't lie.
"The mark checks out, but... you should leave, you can't do this task," Baron shook his head and said.
Though he no longer dwelled on the stance issue, he still didn't want Lu Ran to undertake the task.
This was unbelievable.
How could Lu Ran, who barely obtained such a precious Task Scroll, give up on the rich rewards right before his eyes?
"Why? Since we arrived and triggered this task, we naturally have the ability to complete it," Lu Ran insisted sternly.
"Indeed, I set the Task Scroll, but you may not realize the task's level. Your Human Race Professionals are only at level sixty at best in the first tier, how will you pass? You probably encountered numerous risks and losses on your way to the Dwarf Race, didn't you? With only that capability? I'm telling you this for your safety. Keep your life, grow stronger, and come back when you're ready," Baron explained.
Only then did Lu Ran understand the Dwarf King's intention.
He could understand why he thought so.
This is the Forbidden Area, a place far beyond the first-tier level of the current Human Race Professionals.
The Dwarf King set the task, but didn't expect a Human Race Professional to come along with a Scroll to trigger it so soon.
Too soon!
Current Human Race Professionals are simply incapable of completing that task!
Of course, this was merely the Dwarf King's one-sided assumption.
At this moment.
Sillor spoke again: "He's fine and can definitely complete the task."
Hmm?
The Dwarf King Baron looked at Sillor in surprise.
The issue between the Dark Elves and Natural Elves wasn't clear, leaving that aside for now.
But as the Dark Elf Queen, she should be hostile to the Human Race, right? Why speak for a human now?
"Sillor, is it? Since when did you become close to the Human Race?" Baron curiously asked.
"It has nothing to do with closeness. He has the ability. The Dark Elves returning to the Elf Forest is also thanks to him, and he has received the blessing and recognition from Elf Queen Tina. His abilities are absolutely beyond your imagination," Sillor continued.
Lu Ran even felt a bit touched.
This was the first time a non-human creature defended him so loyally.
But Baron.
Listening to Sillor's words, he looked at Lu Ran with doubt.
Then he said, "You group, there is something strange about you. I don't disbelieve your words, after all, the Life Divine Tree's baptism mark isn't wrong, but I can't fully trust it either. What's your level? Getting Tina's recognition and blessing, even if true, prove it to me."
Uh...
It was clear, Baron still didn't quite believe Lu Ran.
The mark of the Life Divine Tree on Sillor's neck wasn't wrong, but it had nothing to do with Lu Ran and the others from the Human Race.
It didn't mean Baron would believe Lu Ran and them.
In the end, Baron had never expected current Human Race Professionals to be of any help when he released the task!
"Prove..."
Lu Ran murmured, and suddenly his eyes lit up. Isn't proving it quite simple?
The Elf Wings were the best proof!
Thinking of this, Lu Ran immediately stood up, gave Baron a light smile.
The next second.
Bang!
The Elf Wings instantly transformed and unfolded behind Lu Ran.
The gigantic Elf Wings spread open, with a length of nearly ten meters on both sides, astonishingly huge!
Even Baron nearly spilled his beer.
He stared wide-eyed, looking at Lu Ran in disbelief, exclaiming, "Elf Wings! You... you actually obtained the Elf Race's Elf Wings!"
Baron, familiar with the Natural Elves, certainly knew the importance and significance of the Elf Wings.
It is the Sacred Artifact that can summon the entire Elf Race to assist in battle at will!
Equivalent to the importance of the Dwarven Furnace to the Dwarf Race!
Since Lu Ran could obtain the Elf Wings, there was no error.
Baron's doubts in his heart vanished almost instantly.
And at that moment.
Ding!
[Task Eternal Fire's Continuation (1) Completed!]
[Reward obtained: 5 million experience!]
[New task triggered, please check in time!]
A series of prompts let Lu Ran breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked up at Baron, who was now smiling.
He said kindly, "Sit down and talk, there's no need to prove anything, I believe you."
Indeed.
The Elf Wings were the best proof!
Lu Ran received confirmation from the Dwarf King immediately.
After sitting down.
Lu Ran checked the new task.
[Task: Eternal Fire's Continuation (2)]
[Objective: Pass through the Stone Forest of the Sea of Sand to reach the entrance of the Dwarf Crypt]
[Reward: 30 million experience!]
Thirty million experience!
Lu Ran's heart raced wildly. This second wave directly offered thirty million experiences, amazing!
Moreover, the task objective didn't seem difficult, just passing through an area and reaching the entrance of the Dwarf Crypt counted as completing the task?
This was practically a freebie!
This trip, indeed, was the right decision!
"I know you want to complete the task, but before that, please follow me," Baron pondered and said as he stood.
"Where to?" Lu Ran's eyes brightened.
Was this the start of the next phase of the task?
But the Dwarf King said, "Inside the Giant Stone Castle, I'll take you to see the Dwarf Furnace."
Uh...
It seemed not to be the mission area.
But since it's the Sacred Artifact of the Dwarf Race, it's worth gaining some knowledge.
So, Lu Ran and his group followed Baron out of the reception hall.
Twisting and turning inside the Giant Stone Castle.
It wasn't long through a steel-forged corridor, they opened the door.
Lu Ran saw the legendary Sacred Artifact of the Dwarf Race, the Dwarf Furnace!
Indeed, it looked a lot like the Dwarf Furnace mark on the Task Scroll, but this scale was too extravagant!
The Dwarf Furnace alone was over ten meters tall!
Like a solid fortress placed in the center of the hall.
However, there wasn't the slightest movement in the Dwarf Furnace.
Baron sighed, his eyes dimmed, and said, "This is the Sacred Artifact of the Dwarf Race, the Dwarf Furnace, only, it's the Dwarf Furnace that has lost the Eternal Fire."
