My Passive Skills are Invincible! - Chapter 223
Chapter 223: 3,000 Years Ago
“A legend from 3,000 years ago?”
Mike did not look back at all. He just looked calmly at the table in front of him, but his brows were slightly furrowed.
He did not enjoy this kind of roundabout way of chatting, but his intuition told him that what Sabrina was going to say next would contain very important information.
At this moment, Sabrina stood up straight and walked away from the sharp blade, the Sword of the King. She returned to her seat; it seemed that she liked to stand behind others before she said something important.
Now that she had returned to her seat, she changed into a relaxed and comfortable position, and spoke in a casual atmosphere like a friend, “Legend has it that on this continent 3,000 years ago, civilization had just been born.
“At that time, you humans were still a bunch of uncivilized barbarians. Of course, I didn’t mean to offend you, I’m just stating facts.”
Sabrina smiled slightly, while Mike put the Sword of the King back into its sheath, this indicated for Sabrina to continue.
“And we elves were just a race that lived in the forest at that time.
“We don’t have the concept of a country. At most, we could have only been considered as a tribe.
“In fact, 3,000 years ago, there wasn’t a single race on the entire continent that considered themselves as a ‘country’.
“And we elves were the first race on this continent to establish a country.”
Sabrina’s tone was filled with pride, as if she was narrating the glorious history of her ancestors.
Mike did not interrupt her and just quietly listened. He felt that there would be important information next. Sure enough, Sabrina mentioned the important item again.
“Soul Stone.
“In the legend of our elf clan, the elven queen at that time obtained the Soul Stone by accident, which made the elf clan become powerful.”
Sabrina leaned back a little deeper, and a hint of yearning appeared in her eyes.
“At that time, our elven race was the overlord of the entire continent.
“We had powerful strength, protection from the god of nature, and a long lifespan.
“You should know that our elven race can live for at least a few 100 years, and some can even live up to 1,000 of years.
“With these many advantages, in addition to having the Soul Stone, our elven ancestors successfully occupied a piece of land on the continent, becoming the first country.
“But soon, something unexpected happened.”
Sabrina sighed and looked at Mike with a resentful gaze, “Many years later, one day, you humans finally slowly transformed and established a country, and built a civilization.
“Almost within the same year, the God sent down heavenly punishment.
“The heavenly fire raged the Earth and burned countless forests, it turned the entire place into barren land.
“No one knew why the heavenly fire descended, but it was only then that we elves learned that there was more than one God in the world.
“The name of the God who descended the heavenly fire was called Ragnaros.”
Hearing this, Mike narrowed his eyes to show some reaction, but he still did not say anything, because he did not want to interrupt Sabrina.
He just… subconsciously reacted to the name Ragnaros.
Sabrina seemed to have noticed something, but she did not want to interrupt her own narration and continued, “From then on, the names of the gods kept popping up like bamboo shoots in the soil after the spring rain, appearing in our sight.
“The god of fire, Ragnaros, the god of war, Ares, the god of light, Bader… and all kinds of gods.
“Originally, we elves were the only ones on this continent who believed in gods. We believed in the God of Nature, Vari, which brought us a lot of blessings.
“But when all the races understood the benefits of believing in gods, the advantages of the elves gradually decreased.
“Humans, dwarves, orcs… All the races began to catch up with us elves.
“And we elves lost important support in a large-scale battle.
“The Soul Stone… was lost.”
Sabrina looked straight at Mike.
Mike finally spoke for the first time in this story.
“Was it a war with humans?” Mike asked this question.
Sabrina was silent for a moment, and finally nodded, “Yes, it was the war with you humans.
“During that war, the elven queen died on the battlefield, and the whereabouts of the Soul Stone became unknown.
“From then on, the elven race gradually became isolated.”
Hearing this, Mike sneered and said, “Isolated? But in my opinion, the elven race still has a place on the continent.”
“Really? But it could never be compared to the strength and prosperity that we had last time.”
“So you want to restore the glory of the elves? You want to lead the elves to become the number one race on this continent again?”
Mike narrowed his eyes again, but only Sabrina shook her head with a bitter smile. “It’s impossible.”
“A small Soul Stone doesn’t have such a great ability. At that time, we elves became the overlords of the continent from many other advantages, not just from possessing the Soul Stone.”
“Take the power of faith as an example. Don’t you humans worship gods now?”
“Don’t count me in,” Mike leaned back and said with a disdainful smile, “I never believed in those selfish people who are high and mighty.”
Sabrina raised her hands slightly and let out a scoff, “Wow, next time, you have to say that very far away from me.
“I’m afraid that God’s punishment will affect me.”
No one knew whether Sabrina was serious or joking when she said this, but the atmosphere did ease up a little.
Sabrina placed her hands on her chest and said in a matter-of-factly tone, “The Soul Stone was originally a holy weapon that our elven race possessed at first.
“Is it a problem if I want to retrieve the Soul Stone now?
“Can’t I just treat it as a mascot that might be able to protect our elven race?”
Sabrina still had a joking tone.
However, Mike sneered disapprovingly and said, “Protect the elven race’s mascot? I don’t think so.”
Sabrina listened to Mike’s slightly mocking tone and pretended to be relaxed as she asked, “What do you mean? Is there something wrong?”
At this moment, she was just a little uncomfortable. After all, Mike’s tone was not very friendly.
But in the next moment, her entire posture changed greatly.
“You want the Soul Stone because you want to steal the position of the elven queen, isn’t that right?”
Mike used the most casual tone as he revealed the most shocking secret.
At this moment, Ulysses Sabrina’s entire body trembled!
