“Rivendell?…haha…this na sounds like sothing from ‘The Lord of the Rings’.”
“Could it be the ruins of another elven city?”
“Wait…could we have triggered so hidden questline?”
Upon hearing Carlos’ words, the players were imdiately filled with excitent. They put down whatever they were doing and surrounded Carlos.
“Grandpa Carlos, can you tell us more about this Rivendell?”
“Is it an elven city?”
“Where is it located? Is it near us?”
Watching the chosen ones’ excited expressions, Carlos felt sowhat curious. However, he realized that they had only recently arrived in this world and didn’t know much about the elven history.
He slowly put down his hamr and reminisced, “Ah Rivendell…in elven language, it ans ‘rift of the depths‘. It’s an elven city located at the junction of the Erald Mountains and the Elven Forest, south of the Elven Forest and north of the Erald Mountains. It should be about one or two hundred kiloters from here…”
After he finished speaking, Carlos expression then slightly dimd, “The Erald Mountains, now known as the Dark Mountains. A thousand years ago, it was also the core area of the elven kingdom, but sadly everything was destroyed in the war.”
“Rivendell is a miraculous city. It’s built in a valley with magnificent scenery, and it has the largest ore veins in the elven kingdom. It was also the kingdom’s manufacturing center. The elven equipnt and various magical tools produced in Rivendell were once all the rage in the world!”
As Carlos spoke, his expression beca increasingly excited, with a hint of pride and longing. But after a mont, he let out a defeated sigh.
“Unfortunately, a thousand years ago, the war destroyed both Rivendell and the Erald Mountains. Now, only a bottomless chasm remains, left behind by the gods’ battle, and now Rivendell has beco just re ruins…”
“The chasm opened a passage between the underground world and the surface world. Nowadays, Rivendell has reportedly beco a paradise for underground monsters…”
“It was also the existence of the chasm that severed the connection between the Erald Mountains and the Elven Forest. The only entrance and exit to the south of the Elven Forest is now in the southeast, near the Beastn tribe. Otherwise, if we ca back through other passages, we wouldn’t have to endure such orc onslaught.”
As Carlos spoke, he clenched his fists tightly.
Almost all of the elder elves who died in battle before were his friends and family!
Thinking of this, Carlos’s eyes reddened, as his vision blurred slightly.
He sniffled and forced out a rueful smile, saying, “Heh pardon , I’m getting sentintal as I get older.”
After speaking, he then regained his composure and said with hope, “Ah… those are all things of the past, better not to ntion them. Now that the mother goddess has returned, everything will be okay for the Elven tribe. I believe that one day, we will be able to expel the monsters that occupy Revindeil, just like we did in the Erald Mountains, and rebuild the glory of the Elves once again!”
With great enthusiasm, he turned to the chosen ones and said, “Everything will be okay. Let’s work hard togethe—”
However, when Carlos turned around, he was stunned as he found that the chosen ones who had just been helping him and listening to his history were suddenly missing half of their numbers!
There were originally thirty or forty people, but now there were only a scattered few, and half of them were won.
Carlos:…
“…Where are the rest of people?!”
His face was entirely flabbergasted.
A serious-looking, blue-eyed, golden-haired chosen one answered with a strange expression, glancing outside, “I think… they might have gone to look for Rivendell.”
Carlos:…
…
Carlos’s storytelling was like a stone thrown into a lake.
About one or two hundred kiloters south of the Elven Forest, in the northern part of the Dark Mountains, there was another Elven city!
It was called Rivendell!
And… it was once was the largest manufacturing center of the Elven tribe.
Treasure!
Not only that, it is also connected to the underground world, where many monsters are said to have exist!
Treasure! Monsters!
A new map!
This must be a new map!
Could it be… another main questline?!
At once, the chosen ones who received the news beca excited.
anwhile, the leaders of the three major player guilds also received the ssage:
“Oh my god! Brother Mu, Brother Mu! It seems like we triggered a hidden questline! It’s probably a new map!”
“Salty Cat, Cat! Extra! Extra! I found clues to the ruins of the new elf city! This ti, our guild must lead the way. I heard that it used to be the center of the elf manufacturing industry, so there must be many ancient books on construction!”
“Hey Tomato! We found it! We finally found clues to the elf ruins we’ve been searching for in the wilderness! I heard there are many monsters there! We can definitely have a great ti killing mobs this ti!”
In an instant, all the chosen ones were boiling with excitent.
“Rivendell?”
Li Mu, who had just accepted the task of taking care of two elf little girls from Alice, looked at the guild group’s ssage with a surprised expression.
He thought for a mont, handed a berry to each of the elf girls, and let them play by themselves first.
Then, he entered the Elven Temple, bowed to Alice who was distributing daily tasks, and respectfully asked:
“Madam Alice, do you know Rivendell?”
“Rivendell?”
Alice paused for a mont, and a hint of nostalgia appeared in her expression.
“It… was once one of the most prosperous cities of our elf race, but alas it has now beco ruins.”
Upon hearing her words, Li Mu’s spirits were lifted.
“So, do you know the specific location of Rivendell?”
Alice looked at him strangely and shook her head.
“I have never been there.”
After saying that, she then added:
“But Rivendell was built in a valley and connected to the Great Canyon north of the Dark Mountains after its destruction. If you follow the canyon, you can definitely find it.”
At this point, she seed to have realized sothing and swiftly warned Li Mu:
“I want to remind you that it is said that there is a passage connecting it to the underground world, which has now beco a paradise for monsters and is quite dangerous. You’d better not take any risks okay?”
“Okay! Thank you, Lady Alice!”
Li Mu looked pleasantly surprised at the saintly lady’s words.
He thanked Alice while ssaging the guild mbers in his mind:
“I have confird with Alice that there is indeed an elven city nad Rivendell! It was once quite prosperous! And Alice also told so ways to find it…”
“But the Saint said it’s very dangerous there. I suggest that interested guild players form a few exploration teams and explore separately! As for the person in charge of the exploration mission, let it be Demacia!”
Upon seeing Li Mu’s ssage, the players of the Natural Hearts Guild instantly replied “received.”
At this ti, Demacia suddenly asked in the guild chat:
“Brother Mu, why don’t you go?”
Li Mu’s mouth slightly curled up, and he replied by typing:
“I took a babysitting mission from Alice here, which rewards 1000 contribution points! Hehe, I can’t leave.”
Demacia: …
The players of the Natural Heart Guild: …
“Oh my god, 1000 contribution points, she really deserves to be the only purple class NPC…”
“So jealous!”
“Pfft, high favorability ans you can do whatever you want?”
Li Mu proudly replied:
“Sorry, high favorability ans you can do whatever you want!”
Demacia: …
The players of the Natural Hearts Guild: …
“Hehehe!”
“( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)”
“…”
Li Mu: …
