However, this situation among Dark Elves is only a small part, and those Dark Elves who encounter this situation mysteriously disappear soon after.

The Elf Clan believes that after the Dark Elves break through to Legend, due to the baptism of Legendary Power, the influence of Spider Queen Rose dissipates.

So they can restore the Elves' original nature.

This speculation also proves that the essence of Dark Elves and Elves is the same.

It's just that the influence of Spider Queen Rose led to the emergence of Dark Elves.

Although this is just a speculation of the Elf Clan, Lis feels that it is somewhat similar to Eliza's current situation.

If this is the case, have all those missing Dark Elf Legends been made into Legendary Puppets by Spider Queen Rose?

Just like the Eliza in front of him.

Earlier, when entering Eliza's spiritual world, Lis observed carefully.

In Eliza's spiritual world, her soul was completely sealed by the spiritual imprint left by Spider Queen Rose.

She may seem to have regained consciousness now, but that's just temporarily due to Lis's manipulation.

The core of Spider Queen Rose's spiritual imprint is still untouchable for Lis.

Therefore, if Lis loosens control, Eliza, suppressed by Spider Queen Rose's spiritual imprint, will return to her previous state.

However, Lis can now control Eliza's actions just like the previous Dark Elf Queen Spine.

But Lis wants to obtain some useful information from Eliza.

With Rose's spiritual imprint present, Lis cannot forcibly search Eliza's soul.

Hopefully, there will be some gain, right?

"Were you conscious when being controlled?"

Lis softly asked as he looked at Eliza in front of him.

At the same time, he lifted the previous Restriction Spell.

Now Eliza's body is entirely under his control.

She can only speak, but can do nothing else.

"Sometimes my consciousness is awake, but most of the time it is in a dormant state."

Eliza shook her head, saying calmly:

"After all, even when my consciousness is awake, I can't control my body, and can't do anything, so it's better when I am unconscious."

"... You know my identity. If you are willing to assist me, when I am sure, I will help you break free from Spider Queen Rose's control."

Lis looked at Eliza and said after a moment of silence:

"You can take this as my promise, or as a trade."

"Lord Lis, and Favored of the World Tree, I still choose to believe in your promise."

"I hope that one day, I can visit the Elf Forest!"

"You may use my body as you wish, even facing death is fine."

Eliza looked at Lis with a sincere smile on her face:

"If I do not live to see the day your promise is fulfilled, could you bury me in the Elf Forest?"

"... Yes."

Lis nodded slightly as he looked at Eliza in front of him.

Besides her appearance, Eliza now felt no different to Lis than an Elf from the Elf Forest.

"Thank you, Lord Lis."

Eliza smiled and nodded, then looked at Lis and said:

"What would you like to know?"

"How many Legends are at the Forbidden Fortress Donovan?"

"There are five Dark Elf Legends in total."

Eliza said without hesitation:

"Besides Lady Spine and me, the other three Legends are like me."

"One of them, Harleya, is a pivotal figure who always guards Donovan, and you should have encountered the other two."

"What are they skilled at..."

Lis meticulously noted down the information Eliza provided.

"What arrangements are in place in Donovan?"

"... I'm not quite sure."

Eliza thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly and said:

"I am a Legendary Assassin, so after coming here, Spine had me wander around the surrounding Underground City area to detect any approaching strong figures."

"Therefore, I seldom enter Donovan itself, and I don't know much about it."

"However, there are quite a lot of Dark Elves in Donovan, all of whom are powerful Extraordinary Professionals, and there are no ordinary Elves there."

"Moreover, the states of these Elves are somewhat peculiar; they are usually in a dormant state, using a special means to delay life."

Spider Queen Rose... quite ruthless!

Lis sighed somewhat ruefully.

For Spider Queen Rose, Dark Elves are truly complete tools!

"What is the situation with those Magic Beasts that rush out of the Underground City?"

Lis continued to ask.

"Those are Magic Beasts modified by Spider Queen Rose, and no one knows the specifics."

Eliza shook her head slightly and continued:

"It seems to be under the influence of Abyss Power, so those Magic Beasts have lost all intelligence, they're just a bunch of frenzied slaughter beasts."

"Where are these Magic Beasts located?"

Lis asked Eliza.

This was something he was quite curious about.

After entering the Underground City, Lis also searched for traces of those Magic Beasts.

But in the end, he found nothing.

After the Magic Beasts returned to the Underground City, the traces they left were chaotic and erratic, as if without thought.

But no matter which path the Magic Beasts took into the Underground City, after tracking them for a while, their traces would disappear completely.

It's as if those Magic Beasts vanished into thin air.

Lis wanted to wait for those Magic Beasts to reappear, follow them, and find their lair.

But for some reason, the Magic Beasts that once surged out of the Underground City never appeared again.

Having no other option, Lis took the initiative to explore the Underground City area.

For Lis, those Magic Beasts were not that troublesome.

But they reminded Lis of some unpleasant memories.

That is from the time of the Abyss Blood Battle.

When countless Abyss Gates appeared in the Gaia Main World, bringing unprecedented disaster to the entire world and all living beings.

Most of the Abyss Demons emerging from the Abyss Gates weren't much of a threat to Legendary Strongmen...

But the sheer number of those Abyss Demons... was simply too much.

Under the influence of the Abyss Will, even the weakest Little Inferior Demon is quite dangerous to ordinary people.

With countless Abyss Gates appearing all over the Continent, even if the Legendary Strongmen all showed up to fight and countless armies and adventurers cleaned up back and forth, those Abyss Demons couldn't be wiped out completely.

To ordinary people, this was a complete disaster.

And the frenzied Magic Beasts emerging from this Underground City gave Lis the same feeling he had when facing those Abyss Demons during the Abyss Blood Battle.

And listening to Eliza, have these Magic Beasts truly been affected by Abyss Power?

"Spine possesses a special Legendary Item."

Eliza continued:

"I don't know what that special item is, but its ability seems to allow the opening of a pathway to a controlled Abyss Plane."

"Those Magic Beasts were all bred in that Abyss Plane."

The source is in the 66th layer of the Endless Abyss, the 'Deep Pit Demon Net'?

Lis felt a bit troubled.

If that's the case, isn't that equivalent to a small Abyss Demon Gate that can be opened at any time?

Very troublesome indeed!

In this situation, the only possible approach seems to be through Spine...

But for the time being, Lis does not want to confront Spine.

Unless it is time to reveal his trump card, Lis does not want to draw Spider Queen Rose's attention prematurely.

Before the final confrontation, Lis needs to gather more intelligence.

Spider Queen Rose, even in her controlled Abyss Plane, breeds those Magic Beasts; her purpose cannot merely be to attack the Pan-Continent Mage Association.

What exactly is this Evil God plotting?

"... So do you know how Spine has sealed the space of this Underground City area?"

After some thought, Lis continued to ask.

"I know this for certain."

Facing this question, Eliza nodded and said:

"Spine did this through a Divine Artifact."

"The name of this artifact is 'Pastom's Stomach'!"
