I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

The Elf Forest is located in the Maya Great Forest, the largest forest in Angmaros.

Its territory was equivalent to the Roland Empire and the Kingdom of Nigar.

However, not all of the Maya Great Forest belongs to the Elf Forest.

Only the very central area is where the elves primarily live.

The outer area of ​​the Maya Great Forest is equivalent to a natural protective barrier for the Fairy Forest.

However, some misbehaving elves also live in the outer areas.

The Kingdom of Nigar, the Empire of Roland, and the Maya Great Forest are distributed in an inverted "Y" shape, with the area where the Maya Great Forest is located being the lower fork.

Geographically, the Elf Forest appears to be adjacent to the Kingdom of Nigar.

But in reality, because of the existence of the forest, Anno felt that going to the Elf Forest was more troublesome than going to the Dwarf Kingdom, which was separated by the Roland Empire.

"Master, have we not reached the Elf Forest yet?"

Adelaide looked around at the forest and said listlessly, "We've been walking for so long, why haven't we seen any elves yet?"

Anno, feeling a chill run down his spine, said, "According to the map provided by the elven ambassador, we're not going in the wrong direction. Let's continue!"

"Are you sure, kid? Don't get lost without even realizing it!"

Avalon looked at Anno with some suspicion.

Anno turned to ask, "Lord Avalon, have you never dealt with elves before?"

According to Adelaide's intelligence, Anno knew that Adelaide had been alive for a very long time.

It had lived for hundreds of years before being sealed on Dragon Island.

They might have even experienced a war of gods.

However, Avalon did not answer any of Anno's questions about things from a thousand years ago, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

But such a giant dragon should theoretically have had contact with the elves.

"We have indeed dealt with each other."

Avalon's eyes twitched several times, and he said in a low voice, "As an enemy!"

"Um?"

Anno suddenly stopped and looked at Avalon in disbelief, asking, "Dragons and elves have ever fought a war?"

Avalon clicked his tongue and said, "Dragons are a chaotic faction, what did you think?"

"Won't your coming to the Elf Forest with us provoke the hostility of the elves?"

Anno had some doubts. If he found the elves and they discovered that this handsome middle-aged man was actually the Black Dragon King of the Dragon Clan, would it arouse their disgust?

Previously in Worengle, the reason why the elves and dragons coexisted peacefully was probably due to the pressure from their powerful adversary.

"That's hard to say!"

Avalon said nonchalantly, "However, I've heard that the Elven Forest has declined over the past thousand years. With their current strength, they pose no threat to me."

"Yeah?"

Whoosh!

Just as Avalon was looking smug, the surrounding trees seemed to come alive, rising from the soil and stretching their branches toward Avalon.

Faced with the sudden attack, Avalon displayed the reaction speed of a peak ninth-tier expert.

Not only did it dodge attacks from all directions in an instant, it also unleashed a fire shockwave, engulfing all the treants in flames and causing them to collapse to the ground.

"A trivial skill!"

Avalon waved his hand to dispel the flames on his palm, then fixed his gaze on a thick, giant tree that was unaffected by the flames.

Rumble!

Amidst a violent earthquake, the massive tree uprooted its roots from the ground, its towering canopy blotting out the sky.

A massive shadow, thirty meters high, instantly loomed over everyone's heads.

"Oak Guardian?"

Upon seeing the message, Anno quickly pulled back Avalon, who was about to unleash fire.

"Don't attack! They're the oak tree guardians of the Elf Forest!"

"Do I need you to remind me?" Avalon said, looking dissatisfied. "That's what attacked me just now!"

Seeing this, Anno turned to the oak guard and explained, "I am Anno, and I have come from the Kingdom of Nigal. I have no ill intentions; I am simply here to discuss some matters with the elves."

Since its appearance, the Oak Guardian has not shown any hostility towards Anno.

Upon hearing Anno's words, a human face gradually twisted and emerged on the trunk of the oak guardian.

"Lord Anno, I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

The oak guard stepped aside, revealing a forest path behind it, and said, "Please follow me."

"Master, how did the elves know we were coming?"

Liz asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Anno shook his head and said, "I'm not sure either, but I have a feeling this trip will be very fruitful."

Led by the shrunken oak guardians, Anno and his group traveled several times faster.

Within ten minutes, Anno had already spotted scattered elven settlements in the forest.

The surrounding trees were noticeably greener and more lush, full of vitality.

Even the air in the forest became fresh and sweet.

"It seems that we weren't too far from the Elf God just now."

Adelaide muttered something under her breath.

The oak guards clearly heard them, but did not reply, continuing to lead the way silently.

This walk takes several hours.

Anno and his companions, who were guarded by the oak tree, attracted the attention of more and more elves.

However, because of the presence of the oak tree guardians, not a single elf stepped forward to stop them.

"There are elves in the elven village ahead who have mastered spatial magic. You can ask them to teleport you to the vicinity of the Mother Tree of Life."

You can find the elven royalty there!

The oak tree guard's voice was deep and powerful.

Anno looked in the direction the oak guardian pointed and saw the elves who had noticed them gathering.

One of the handsome male elves clearly noticed the oak guard.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Anno and the others.

"Take them to the Mother Tree of Life!"

Before the male elf could speak, the oak guard explained his purpose.

The male elf scrutinized Anno and his group, frowning as he said, "Humans, succubi, wolf-like beastmen, and undead—what a strange combination!"

The oak guard pointed to Anno and explained to the male elf, "This is Lord Anno of the human race!"

"Anno, the adventurer from the Kingdom of Nigar?" The male elf narrowed his eyes, his gaze fixed on Anno.

Anno, through the [Observer], already knew that the seventh-tier elf named Babbitt was a space-type mage.

"If you're referring to Anno, the guild master of the Adventurers' Guild in the Kingdom of Nigal, then that is indeed me!"

Anno smiled at Babbitt and said, "Hello, I've come here specifically to visit the Elf race. Could you please give us a ride?"

"Will you visit us?"

Babbitt looked doubtful.

To be honest, he had not received any related information.

If it weren't for the oak tree guard standing next to Anno, Babbitt would have driven Anno and his party away long ago.

He didn't know what Anuo looked like, and what if these people were imposters?

Moreover, it seems a bit abnormal that a human carrying an undead race member is involved with him.

"Although I haven't received any message, since it was the Oak Guardian who spoke up, I will teleport you to the Mother Tree of Life. Follow me!"

Babbitt turned and walked into the village.

"A seventh-tier being this arrogant?" Sassi remarked.

Adelaide eagerly suggested, "How about we beat him up and teach him a lesson?"

Anno shook his head and said, "Let's not cause any trouble. We're here as guests."
