Eve's expression was also filled with shock, but the shock on her face quickly turned into fervor, and the slight unease in her heart disappeared instantly after seeing the World Tree.
If they can take this World Tree out of the country, their people will be saved.
The other two elves had similar expressions to Eve. They both turned their gazes to Iris without saying a word, but their intention to ask what to do next was self-evident.
"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, there are plenty of good things here."
You should know that the Void City was built as a refuge, and Brindel has left many good things here. How could you not sweep it up when you have the chance to come here?

Moreover, once they take the World Tree, this Void City will be completely annihilated by the void, and everything here will be buried with it.
“It’s dangerous here.” As a space mage, Sally could clearly sense the fragility of this space. If she made even the slightest commotion, this space could shatter at any moment.
"With your current abilities, you should be able to stabilize the space, right?"
“It’s possible, but it won’t last long,” Sally said, scratching her head.
“Then let’s go. Watch my footsteps and follow in my footsteps.” With that, Elise led the way.
It was clearly a road about five meters wide, but Elise walked in a winding, circuitous way. Elena, who was closely following behind Elise, could vaguely hear Elise murmuring something to herself.
"Eight in front, four on the right, three in the back, three on the right..."
This is a mantra that Elise came up with when she was playing games. If she had just rushed straight ahead, she would probably have been annihilated by the void by now.
Of all the people in the group, only Sally knew why Elise had left.
She can sense spatial fluctuations and know where danger lies, but how does Elise do that? Does she also have a spatial talent?
Although I have some doubts, now is not the time to ask those kinds of questions.
It was only a distance of less than 100 meters, but it took them more than half an hour to walk it.
The road ahead is blocked, connected only by a huge root system. To reach the next location, one must walk across the root system.
"Should we just step on the roots and stems to get there?"
"That's right, but these roots usually harbor void creatures, so be careful."
When the World Tree takes root in the void, it continuously absorbs the void's energy. While absorbing energy, it also releases some of it, which attracts void creatures to attach themselves to it.
Void creatures are incredibly diverse, with all sorts of types. Even Elise couldn't predict what kind of void creature she would encounter here.
The moment Elise stepped onto the roots of the World Tree, a noticeable spatial fluctuation appeared ahead, and several void creatures resembling beetles suddenly appeared before them.
As soon as the insects appeared, they pounced on the group, but as they approached Elise, the void creatures gradually slowed down and eventually stopped in front of her.
Eve had read the tribe's documents and knew that this was the allure of the god of love.
She just hadn't expected that even void creatures could be charmed.

"We've found the scout bugs, let's keep going." Elise casually walked forward.
Even with void creatures scouting ahead, Elise still proceeded with extreme caution, for this was the void, a perilous place where a moment's carelessness could mean certain death.
Fortunately, the World Tree's roots are enormous, so there's no need to worry about slipping and falling into the void.
The roots of the World Tree are the most stable part of this space, and there is basically no spatial turbulence. You only need to be careful of the void creatures that may appear at any time. However, the roots are very long and have many branches. If you come here for the first time, you will not know which way to go.
However, with Elise around, none of this is a problem.
After another half hour, the group finally left the root and arrived on another fragment of the city.
What appeared before them was a towering pagoda. As soon as they approached, a phantom suddenly appeared before them.
"Welcome to the Great Library of the Law, where you can find all the books that Brindel exists." A sweet voice rang in everyone's ears. Although the language spoken was not the common language, they could still understand its meaning.
Elena, who had already released her flying sword, then realized that the phantom was an extremely beautiful silver-haired girl with a smile on her face that made people feel warm and friendly.
"Is this a magical artifact?"
"More or less, she's a library guide, her name is Fa Zhou," Elise said as she walked forward.
The moment I approached the library's entrance, the door opened automatically. Even though the city was shattered, the magic here continued to operate until now.
There was nothing wrong with Elise and the others getting close, but when the void creatures she controlled approached, the crystal on the door suddenly burst into a dazzling light, and under the illumination of the light, the void creatures were instantly annihilated.

Seeing this, Sally nervously moved closer to Elise.
"Don't worry, that light won't affect us."
Upon entering the library, the group was greeted by rows of bookshelves arranged in a circle, extending all the way to the top.
However, Elise didn't look at the books. Instead, she went straight to a platform in the middle and said, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and come up."
"Shouldn't we put away all these books?" Elena looked at the books, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"Can you collect all these books? Just come with me."
"Ok."
Seeing that Elise had already said so, everyone came to the platform. Elise glanced at the illusory figure that had been following her and said in ancient language, "I want to enter the core layer."
"Insufficient permissions... Project Fire Seed has failed. Permissions granted. Proceeding to the core layer." As the sweet voice faded, the platform began to ascend rapidly. The phantom remained beside Elise, still wearing a smile, though for some reason, that smile seemed somewhat forlorn.
"You were just speaking... an ancient language?" Eve asked curiously.
"That's right, you can do it too?"
"I don't know how, but I've heard the clan elders mention it before. I didn't expect you to know these things." Eve said with some surprise.
Elise smiled. Having died and been resurrected countless times, she knew quite a lot. She knew all the languages of this world, except for the extremely special Word Spirits that she couldn't master.
Just as Ling Yimengfu was about to ask about the meaning of the Fire Seed Forest Project, the rapidly moving Pingjiu Platform suddenly slowed down and came to a stop.
We've arrived at the core level of the library.
Volume 1: Chapter 308 Second Generation Species
"Huh? Where's the BOSS?"
Looking at the empty core layer, a look of confusion flashed in Elise's eyes.
Noticing the change in Elise's expression, Elena asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Based on what I know about this place, there should be a powerful void creature lurking here, but I don't know why it's gone." Elise muttered to herself, carefully observing her surroundings before stepping inside to make sure there was no danger.
The core layer is where the library's core is stored. As long as you control the core, you can rebuild this great library no matter where you are.
In the game, the Grand Library of France is a special building that provides various bonuses after construction.
However, the library here doesn't have that bonus, but it does contain most of the books that Brindel possesses, and even a lot of records from the Age of Gods.
Previously, Elise wasn't interested in these things, and even if she entered the Void City, she wouldn't waste time coming to this place. But this rebirth is different.
Eloise and the Greedy Lady are variables that have never appeared before. She wanted to see if there were any records of these two in the Grand Library of France, so she came here first.
The core of the library was like a gem, set in a stone slab. After Elise removed the core, the books that were originally stored on the bookshelves also disappeared.
Elena and the others hadn't noticed until they left the library the way they came, when they realized that all the books in the library had disappeared.
Watching Elise fiddling with the core, Elena asked curiously, "Are all the books inside this little core?"
“That’s right, this is also one of the precious legacies of the Void City.” Elise said, putting the core directly into her spatial ring. Next, she planned to go and take a look at the Void City’s treasure vault.
Just as they were preparing to travel back to the other city fragments via the roots of the World Tree, Sally seemed to notice something, then pointed to the illusory figure that had been following them and said, "Is it alright for her to keep following us?"
"It's alright, since the core is in my hands, she has no choice but to stay with me. Besides, it will be much easier for us to move around here with her around."
She is Fa-Day, a creation of the Bryndals specifically made to manage the Void City. In a sense, she is the embodiment of Fa-Day, still controlling the Void City even though it has been shattered.
After Ellie led the group through the intricate network of roots for some time, they once again set foot on the city fragments.
The buildings in this fragment are continuous, and unlike before, there are corpses of various creatures everywhere, as well as a large number of void creatures.
"Welcome to the Species Repository, where the vast majority of the world's living biological samples are preserved..." The illusory figure of Fa Zhou, who had been following Elise, introduced the place in a sweet voice.
"Besides the void creatures, there shouldn't be any other living things here, right?" Elena asked softly.
"That's right. After all, so much time has passed. Although there are no living creatures left, there are still quite a few good things, such as the remains of a dragon."
As Elise spoke, she began to lead the group on a detour. There were simply too many void creatures on the main road, and the area was too shattered. If they accidentally caused a spatial collapse during a battle, it would be troublesome.
Elena knew that Elise, like herself, possessed memories of her past life, so it wasn't surprising that she was familiar with this place.
Sally, Eve, and the others were quite surprised by Elise's performance. It seemed as if Elise was at home, knowing exactly where the shortcuts were and where the dangers were.
The main reason is that this is a display, unlike when I played the game in the second game, some seemingly dilapidated doors could only be opened from the other side. Here, she can easily break open those doors, which naturally reduces a lot of trouble.
After some time, led by Elise, the group arrived at the center of the complex, where the most eye-catching feature was a massive dragon skeleton.
Judging from the surrounding collapsed buildings, the dragon must have fallen from the sky and died here.
"This level of pressure... it's actually a second-generation species!" Fran's voice rang in Elena's ears, her tone filled with surprise.
What does "second-generation species" mean?
"The primordial dragon offspring are seven dragon kings, who are the progenitors of the dragons and are known as the first generation. Their offspring are the second generation, and as long as they can successfully reach adulthood, they can possess demigod-level strength."
"Which generation are you?" Although Elena had been absorbing the power of the dragon crystal, she didn't really know much about the history of the dragon race.
"I am the fourth generation."
Just as Elena was about to ask more questions, Elise's voice rang out: "Prepare for battle. Clear out the surrounding void creatures and we'll retrieve the dragon's carcass."
Without saying a word, Elena and the others immediately entered battle mode, and even Sally took out her giant axe and began to charge up her power.
They were all restraining the intensity of their attacks to avoid causing too much damage to the fragile space.
On Elise's chest, the mark of greed transformed into a holy mark of order, and her voice carried an undeniable majesty: "Here, space is stable."
“The void creatures here are weakened.”
"Here, humans are strengthened, and elves are strengthened."
The three consecutive decrees put immense pressure on Elise's body. Fortunately, the strongest void creatures here were only at the fifth rank, and the decree that consumed the most energy was the one that stabilized the space.
The void creatures that had been charging menacingly at the group suddenly felt weak and were then pinned to the ground by arrows or flying swords.
It didn't take long for the void creatures to be cleared out.
Without hesitation, Elise took out the spatial ring that Flora had obtained from the student exchange meeting, which contained the enormous dragon remains in front of her.
As for the dragon crystal, she casually tossed it to Elena.
Although it is a second-generation dragon crystal, it has lost a lot of energy over the long years, but it is still very useful to Elena now.
Besides the dragon's remains, Elise also took this opportunity to collect the remains of many rare creatures. These remains could be used as rare materials, or they could be given to Little White to devour.
Since we're already here, we can't just let this go.
Anyway, as long as the World Tree isn't taken away, there shouldn't be any major problems here.
However, this place was simply too big, and there were too many broken parts, so Elise didn't linger here for long and quickly led her people to the next place.
Volume 1: Chapter 309 Finding My Body
Where are we going?
Nora ran quickly through the forest. She had no idea where she was, but thankfully she dropped an insect egg every now and then.
Even if she gets lost, she only needs to wait one day until the insect nest is completed. Then she can rely on the insect nest to guide her back, or even contact Sally directly to pick her up.
So Nora wasn't worried about getting lost; she was just curious about where the person inside her wanted her to go.
"Find my body."
"Your body?" Elise had told her before that the one residing in her body was a Valkyrie who nearly perished in the War of the Gods, but she only mentioned that the Valkyrie's soul was shattered and did not tell her the whereabouts of her body.
"You're a god, even if your body only has one hand, I couldn't beat you, right?"
"I didn't ask you to hit me. Once we get there, just lend me your body for a bit, and I'll take it back myself."
"Oh, okay."
As for borrowing a body, she mentioned that when she was being chased before, the other party had borrowed her body once to save her life.
If the other party wanted to take over my body, they wouldn't have waited until now.
Moreover, Nora had an inexplicable sense of trust in the person inside her body.
"Approximately how long will it take?"
