New conspiracy!

After a few days, Xie Qing successfully mastered the memories. Not without the help of the system, of course.

He was now sitting in the gazebo. In front of him was a seductive and beautiful woman with long, pointed ears.

The Queen of the Elves, Lily Elfheim.

She happily and enthusiastically invited him to have tea and talk about various things.

Xie Qing was embarrassed by her invitation, but agreed nonetheless. After all, they were guests here and it was not the best idea to refuse the hostess.

The fragrant smell of tea wafted throughout the garden, making even the flowers rise.

It's all about the property of tea, which can increase longevity and maintain beauty.

However, it was much more effective than the one Xie Qing had. After all, the tea was made from the leaves of the World Tree.

Clutz.

Lily, the Elf Queen, put her cup of tea on the saucer and smiled at Xie Qing.

"I heard that you made friends with the Abyss Projection. That's amazing."

The elf's voice was gentle and pleasant, but her ears twitched violently when she spoke of Melissa.

"Yes, we have much in common. We are children of the Abyss, after all." Xie Qing smiled back.

Lily gasped and her mouth opened into an "O" shape, but Xie Qing noticed out of the corner of his eye that her ears twitched once more violently.

It was a peculiarity he had noticed recently, but Lily's emotions could be read by the way her ears twitched.

At least he realized that if it was a strong "twitch," she was angry. If it's a weak one, she's happy.

He could not confirm this, however, for Lilia always looked like a kind woman.

However, their atmosphere was rather effectively interrupted by the little girl, Celestia.

"Tell me, tell me! Sir Xie Qing, when will you take me as your wife?"

The edge of Xie Qing's mouth twitched and he could even hear the sound of flashers behind him1. Lily's especially smiling look was getting to him!

"When you're an adult, that's when I'll take you as my wife." Xie Qing smiled and gently stroked Celestia's head, causing her to blush.

"Remember! You promised!" She smiled and quickly ran to the castle as if running away from someone.

"Ara-ara, 'sir' Xie Qing is such a womanizer." The queen put her palm on her cheek and shook her head.

Xie Qing just sat in silence and drank his tea. At times like this, it is better to pretend to be stupid and remain silent.

...

In the Sacred Forest of Elves.

Xie Qing walked through the forest and got to know its flora and fauna. Many of the animals were friendly, but there were also aggressive

However, they could not do Xie Qing any harm. His walk through the forest had been going on for an hour.

Suddenly, a distinctive notification sound was heard. "Zing."

[Emergency mission: Underground of the Fallen (0/9).

Description: The Fallen Angels are up to no good! Stop them and clear the area.

Reward: Elven Benevolence, Elven Friend Middle Achievement, Rose Bracelet (Epic+), New System Feature].

Xie Qing stopped abruptly and squinted his eyes. He could clearly see the places marked in red that were underground.

But what was most surprising was that they were able to hide from the Lily Queen. And she is one of the strongest beings in the world.

"I don't care, though. They're just C-level ravens. Kill them and I'm done." Xie Qing shrugged and stomped on the ground.

Soon a crack formed there, which spread as far as the marked area.

The fallen angels hustled and began to gather the important things, but suddenly a voice sounded behind their backs.

"Wow, how many cool things we have lying around here! Let me see!"

The fallen angel, who was collecting things, slowly turned toward the voice. There standing there was Xie Qing with a bright smile.

Boom!

Suddenly the Fallen Angel attacked Xie Qing with a furious scream. Xie Qing, naturally, only grinned and waved his hand.

The fallen angel was turned into a flapjack by a single blow! His other kin scattered in fear, but they soon caught up with him.

In less than five seconds, the disobedient crows were slain. Instantly their mini-lab was covered in blood and internal organs.

Xie Qing opened the only door in the room and froze.

"Ah you..."

"YOU BASTARDS!"

Xie Qing's furious voice echoed throughout the lab, but no one heard it. The formation that hid this lab from everyone blocked even the sounds.

However, Xie Qing didn't care about that. His handsome face was now twisted with rage.

In a nutshell, the room was a vault. However, in this vault were flasks of elves.

Or what was left of the elves...

Different body parts: arms, legs, ears, head, and even breasts...

It was all neatly arranged in flasks. But it was the larger flasks that were the most infuriating.

The bodies of elves were floating in them. But these elves had skin as black as tar. On their heads were sharp horns, like a Japanese Oni.

Spikes protruded from their bodies, and their beautiful faces now looked ugly. Big and sharp teeth, a small and distorted nose, a snake tongue.

The once beautiful and elegant elf has turned into an ugly monster that could make every weak-minded person cry.

However, Xie Qing was more enraged by the actions of the Fallen Angels for the reason that they continued to conspire behind the scenes.

It's not that he criticizes those who use their minds to achieve a goal. In part, Xie Qing is the same way.

But most of all, he disliked enemies who were forever plotting behind his back. That was something Xie Qing could not tolerate.

"You can't get out of here, and if you break the formation, they'll know they've been exposed..." Xie Qing thought deeply.

He wanted as few casualties as possible, for he had the advantage of getting close to the elves. They had the World Tree, as well as all sorts of rare fruits.

"The only way out of here is to hack into the formation..." Xie Qing walked to the center of the formation, which looked like a square with a triangle inside.

[Emergency task: Breaking into the Formation.

Description: Fallen angels can learn whether or not they have been exposed by a link in the formation. Remove this bond and remove the formation.

Reward: "Harvest" Skill fragment].

Xie Qing glanced at the task out of the corner of his eye and narrowed his eyes. Judging by the reward, it must be hard.

He condensed the Abyss Energy and used the Creature property, creating purple glasses.

He put them on and the world instantly changed. Only purple and blue streams were visible.

The purple streams, of course, were Xie Qing's movement. The blue streams, on the other hand, were mana.

Focusing his attention on the formation, Xie Qing began to study it.
