Chapter 2

“How is that possible? An egg actually grew in the Elf Spring?”

“But I clearly saw the Queen take it out of the spring. What the hell is going on?”

“This egg looks so strange. I’ve never seen an egg look like this.”

The surrounding elves widened their eyes in surprise. The shock was no less than the betrayal of the elf, Lehr, 300 years ago, because such a situation had never happened before!

It was not only the surrounding elves who were watching. At this moment, Galadriel looked at the golden egg in her hand with countless question marks in her heart. The egg was not big, only half the size of a human head, but the weight in her hand was a little extraordinary. The surface of the egg was filled with many neatly arranged fine scales. Every scale was very delicate to the touch, giving off the feeling of soft jade.

Moreover, the entire egg emitted an undisguised golden light, as if it was showing the world how extraordinary it was.

In the early years, when Galadriel was training outside, she had seen many species, but with her experience, she could not tell what creature this egg was!

Moreover, it could be ruled out that someone had secretly let them in because the three elders who had just left were demigods, and Galadriel was one of the strongest demigods in the world. Moreover, she was known as the closest existence to a god. Let’s not talk about whether they had the guts or not, but were they capable of doing this?

Excluding that possibility completely, the rest of the answer puzzled Galadriel even more. As one of the oldest elves of the elves, she had never even seen the Elf Spring give birth to a new life in any other way, let alone an egg.

If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have believed it even if her sister, Vieruodis, had told her, because it was really too ridiculous.

But what was certain was that the creature inside was definitely not an elf, because there had never been such a thing as elves being born from eggs.

Looking at the egg, Galadriel thought for a moment, then said to Undine, who had just arrived, “Let everyone rest well. I’ll deal with the egg.”

“Your Majesty, I suggest I handle this egg. If it happens again like last time…”

Undine stared solemnly at the egg in Galadriel’s hand. A sharp spear had already appeared in her hand.

“Don’t worry, I’m sure there won’t be a second elf like Lehr. If there’s going to be a traitor, it’ll definitely act during the Birth Ceremony, not now. My guess is that this might be arranged by the Elven Goddess. Besides, I don’t sense any evil aura from this egg. Aurora has just been born. You have to work harder for a while. You can leave the work in your hands to the seventeen elf envoys.”

“I have no problem. Compared to those guys in the Abyss, a child is not so dangerous. But if you encounter any problems next, please inform me!”

Knowing Undine’s stubbornness, Galadriel nodded and flew to the tallest building in Jadeite City with the egg. Her words just now were not perfunctory. The arrival of this egg might really be related to the Elven Goddess.

In the past, whenever the Elven Goddess was about to give guidance, something strange would happen to the elves. It was also a reminder. For example, before the next elder candidate, Elf Envoy Lehr, betrayed them, her residence had been covered in dark clouds.

In the Goddess Hall.

The entire hall was solemn from the inside out. At the front of the hall was a huge stone statue of the Elven Goddess. The engraver had carved it from Galadriel’s memories. This was not only the elves’ meeting hall but also the place where Galadriel communicated with the Elven Goddess.

At this moment, Galadriel had changed her clothes. Her long hair flowed naturally, and she wore the Blessed Moon Ring given by the Elven Goddess in her dream a thousand years ago. She knelt incomparably reverently in front of the huge goddess statue, and the egg was placed by Galadriel on a raised platform beside her.

Then Galadriel chanted an ancient incantation that echoed throughout the hall. The egg seemed to respond, and the scales on the eggshell moved quietly.

After a long time, Galadriel finished chanting. At this moment, she actually floated in front of the Elven Goddess statue, but she still maintained her kneeling posture.

“Merciful Elven Goddess, I call upon you sincerely. If you have the intention to send down guidance…”

Galadriel’s voice faded until all he could see was her lips moving as if she were talking to someone. The scene lasted for about half an hour before Galadriel slowly fell back to the ground.

After opening her eyes, Galadriel couldn’t wait to read the memories in her brain, but a moment later, there was disappointment in her eyes.

Similar to many times before, this time the Elven Goddess left no message in her mind. Although Galadriel was used to this, it was not good for the elves.

Because of the damage to the Ancient Elven Tree 300 years ago, the responses the elves received from the Elven Goddess became intermittent. Occasionally, there would even be situations where they did not receive a response. Without the guidance of the Elven Goddess, the elves had been a little powerless in the face of many disasters in recent years. If not for Galadriel and the other three elders, the elves would probably not have been able to defend their territory.

While Galadriel was deep in thought about this, the egg trembled slightly.

“Where am I?”

A very abrupt voice came from the endless darkness. The surrounding darkness seemed to be following the heartbeat of some creature, beating rhythmically.

Chen Kun opened his eyes in a daze, but everything was dark. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch the light switch, but his hand did not respond. He thought it was because he had slept for too long, so he did not pay much attention.

“Is anyone there? Please turn on the lights for me.”

He tried to call out, but his words fell like stones into the sea. There was no response.

He did not know how long he had slept. In any case, he had been in this godforsaken place the moment he opened his eyes. He had wanted to see what was going on, but he realized that he could not move!

‘Am I paralyzed?’

He tried to raise his arm again, and then his heart skipped a beat. Why was there no reaction? Then he hurriedly tried his leg. There was also no response. In the end, he refused to give up and called out to the little brother. Oh no, the little brother was gone too!

Forcing himself to calm down, Chen Kun might have some guesses about his current situation. Perhaps this place should be what many people used to call hell.

After figuring out his current situation, if he guessed correctly, the Black and White Impermanences should come over to pick him up.

However, as he thought about it, Chen Kun could not suppress his emotions.

“I hadn’t even gotten a girlfriend. How could I die?”
