Arcane Lord

"I would like to borrow the [Betis Secret Scroll], is that okay?"

For Farrow, Hildalanna's seemingly gentle words without any intimidation sounded to his ears like a demonic curse that threatened his life. His drunkenness instantly receded and he broke into a cold sweat. Little by little it slipped from the back of the head.

Damn it! What on earth did you say?

Before he could get angry, Farrow had already noticed dozens of hopeful, eager and almost greedy eyes focused on him, including even Prince Ser, who had just gotten closer to him not long ago, and was sent to observe by the crowned king of Ilisel.

[Betis Secret Scroll] The news in his hands is not a secret to the crown king of Ilisel. In fact, without the cooperation of the crown king of Ilisel, how could he have organized that operation!

On the one hand, this gathering of the Elf Court is to celebrate the end of the underground war, but more importantly, the Lord God rewards the members of the organization for their efforts in the underground war and their recent performance in promoting the demon restriction proposal in the Northland Alliance!

Of course, the Lord God promised many benefits, but he did not mention relaxing the borrowing restrictions on the [Betis Secret Scroll].

If it is an ordinary secret scroll, Farrow has the authority to handle it on his own even if the main god does not tell him. However, for many ancient authentic relics, including the [Betis Secret Scroll], the main god has already warned that they are not allowed to be borrowed.

Even the on-site reading in the Tower of Domination, under heavy supervision, has set many conditions, and if any one of them is not met, it will not be passed.

Now that he had made such a big promise, and it was in the name of the Lord God, this made Farrow feel uneasy.

If he was just an ordinary high-level mage, even these members of the organization would not be so afraid of the Lord God, and the Lord God would not do anything to him.

But he has actually become a subordinate of the Lord God. Although the rewards are richer if he does well, he will naturally be punished if he does something wrong.

Just when Farrow was at a loss, he suddenly felt a strong pain emanating from all parts of his body, and instantly surged into his heart. Under such an impact, his consciousness began to become a little confused.

But in this chaos, he clearly felt that nearly half of his holy power had disappeared, and at the same time, the Lord God's obviously angry will came from the remaining half of the holy power.

After sensing that will, Farrow breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Lord God was dissatisfied with him for making his own decisions and severely punished him, he still left room for it and even agreed to his previous promise.

After recovering from the severe pain all over his body, Farrow looked at Hildalanna again, and the contempt before was no longer in his eyes. In any case, the hatred was finally settled.

Trying to force out a smile, Farrow threw the empty wine glass in his hand that had spilled the wine in the divine punishment just now on the ground. The moment it touched the ground, it disappeared, as if it was swallowed by the earth.

The next moment, a seedling exuding vitality broke out of the ground, and grew taller and taller. As the seedling grew, a trace of golden light gradually appeared on the two leaves at the top, and it grew stronger as the seedling grew. .

By the time the seedlings reached Farrow's waist, the golden light had turned into a golden page, with silver secret texts constantly swimming on it, attracting the attention of all the elves present.

Although the [Betis Secret Scroll] is never loaned out, and there are many conditions for on-site reading, every elf present has an extraordinary status, and many of them have read the [Betis Secret Scroll].

Even if he has not read the secret scroll, he still has some understanding of its form. When he saw the secret scroll appearing, he could not help but feel his breathing quicken.

Farrow looked around, and under the eager eyes of the elves, he took off the golden page, handed it directly to Hildalanna beside him, and said meaningfully:

"The Lord God has only agreed to lend out one page of the Secret Scroll for the time being. Since you mentioned it first, I will lend it to you for the first time. But please note that this is the original version of the Betis Secret Scroll. This is only one copy. Don't get it. Lost the Lord God’s collection!”

Is this for me?

Hildalana only felt that this reality was a bit dreamy. She had mentioned it to Farrow several times before, but was flatly rejected every time. She did not expect it to be so easy this time.

Just looking at the eager eyes of other elves, she felt that the secret scroll was not that easy to get, not to mention that Farrow's subsequent words almost hinted that other elves could "obtain" it from her!

Although the chance of this actually happening was low, Hildalanna was really disgusted. It was better not to mention this kind of thing, but there was no guarantee that no elves would be tempted by it.

Although she was reluctant to give up, she could only refuse. She really had no absolute confidence in bringing the secret scroll back safely, and she was not willing to bear the consequences of losing the secret scroll, so she said:

"Sir Farrow, I suddenly remembered that I have a research to do recently. I don't have time to study the Betis Secret Scroll for the time being. I'd better leave this page to other mages!"

Hildalanna's words gave other elves a glimmer of hope, but how could Farrow let Hildalanna pass so easily?

"Hildalanna, you want to borrow the secret scroll. The Lord God borrowed it, and now you say you don't want it. Are you teasing the Lord God?"

If it was just joking about the Lord God in private, it would not be a taboo for the high mage, but in front of so many elves, how could Hildalanna admit that she was teasing the Lord God.

"Sir Farrow, you misunderstood. It's not that I don't want this secret scroll, but I want to transfer the opportunity to read it to other mages. This is allowed by the Lord God. How can it be called a tease?"

With that said, she took the golden page from Farrow's hand, then held the page and said to the mages around her: "Those who want the Secret Scroll of Betis can contact me privately, only before the end of the banquet."

Although the price may be reduced when transferring in public, it is much better than bearing the risk of losing the secret scroll alone.

In any case, Farrow's despicable behavior of encouraging other mages to force her to transfer the secret scroll has been deeply engraved in Hildalanna's heart.

"It seems that the cooperation with that Daxia lord does not have to be limited to spice smuggling!"

With this idea in mind, Hildalanna immediately spawned a series of plans in her mind. She didn't even wait for the party to end. After transferring the secret scroll to Prince Sel, she found an excuse to leave the Elven Court early.

…

Nese territory, eastern forest, southern section.

This was not the first time Hildalanna passed by here, but this time she was keenly aware that the nearby forest seemed a little different from before.

Just when she was about to pause her investigation, a detection field suddenly descended, and at the same time, a human voice speaking broken Elvish language came to her ears——

"Elf, this is not the place you should be, leave immediately!"

Hearing this, Hildalanna couldn't help laughing. When did the forest become a forbidden land for elves?

However, thinking of Lord Daxia, she still asked patiently: "What is your relationship with Lord Xia Duo? Let him talk to me!"

There was silence on the other side, and then came - "He is my grandson"
