Chapter 684 -442: The Bloody Hell-Like Elf Royal Court
Elf Royal Court,
So this is the true state of the Elf Royal Court!
So this is the ultimate source of the chaos in Caspar Valley!
So… everything I experienced before was all an illusion!!
Lis stood in place, completely unable to react for a moment.
The intertwined conflict of real and illusory memories in his mind made Lis feel like he was in a dream, an incredibly unreal sensation.
After a moment, Lis finally came to his senses.
Of course, it wasn’t that Lis had a strong ability to accept; it was that the current state of the destroyed Elf Royal Court was too shocking.
He had hardly any time to adjust his own status.
What he saw was that the quiet and peaceful Elf City in his memory had completely turned into a sea of blood.
The entire city had been transformed into a vividly horrific nightmare painting, spread out amidst endless chaos and fear.
The sky was no longer the familiar blue but was obscured by a layer of thick blood, like the deepest evening glow under the sunset, filled with ominous black currents that seemed to never dissipate.
The color of blood overhead was so intense it seemed as if it could drip down, dyeing every inch of space shockingly red.
And beneath Lis’s feet was no longer the path he had walked but had become the bed of a river of blood. Blood over his ankles flowed with an incredulous thickness, reflecting a sinister and evil light.
This blood, warm to the touch, yet emitted a nauseating stench—as if the wails of millions of lives were converging into an indescribable wail.
The once majestic and towering buildings of the Elf Royal Court, symbols of the ancient glory of the Elf Clan, had now become synonyms for distortion and terror.
They were covered in layer upon layer of disgusting tumors, which seemed to have their own will, continuously writhing, expanding, until the entire building was engulfed. Dark red blood oozed between the tumors, merging with the surrounding rivers of blood, creating a spine-chilling scene.
In the air, a faint blood mist, indescribable and almost tangible, wound around Lis’s body, attempting to erode his spirit.
Lis didn’t need to feel it any further; the malevolent presence of the Abyss was already completely saturating every corner here, stimulating his nerves.
The whole Elf Royal Court seemed to have become a world embraced by the Abyss, a deep chasm where evil and chaos intertwined.
What was even more terrifying to Lis was that Jonor City of the Elf Royal Court seemed to have become a dead zone.
Apart from the quietly flowing river of blood and the revolting tumors slowly creeping on the buildings, Lis could see no living creatures with his eyes.
What to do?
Lis shook off the dizzy and shocking feeling in his mind and started to think.
If the Elf Royal Court was already destroyed, then were the scenes he had witnessed earlier all within an illusion?
Lis had never felt such a realistic illusion before, one that even made him gradually forget his own existence in the environment, with his memories covered by fictitious information.
Throughout the process, Lis seemed to have naturally forgotten everything.
If it hadn’t been for the warning of Spiritual Sense Warning in his heart, and the last-moment reminder from Lady Arianna, he might still be immersed in that realistic environment.
And Lady Arianna’s behavior undoubtedly proved that the illusion Lis had fallen into was a huge, collective illusion, not a separate illusion tailored to each individual.
Who would have thought the illusion could be so bizarre; was this the might of Demon Prince Demogorgon?
Lis sighed in his heart; he was still too far away from that realm, even escaping the influence of the environmental law was already a stroke of luck.
However…
Lis slightly sensed and found that the backup plan he had prepared in advance could still be used, which steadied his heart somewhat.
Truth be told, Lis’s purpose in coming to the Elf Royal Court was already achieved.

Originally, the purpose of this journey was to obtain the “World Tree New Bud.”
After determining that the Elf Royal Court was already destroyed, although he did not know why the Elf Royal Court was still enveloped by this vast illusion, it did not greatly affect Lis’s goal.
Lis just had to wait for Demogorgon to complete his plan and leave, and then he would be able to get the “World Tree New Bud” that appeared above the ruins.
He could now make use of his prepared backup plan to leave, but he didn’t do so; instead, he turned his head and began to search.
He had to find Cecil!
Although the feelings he had for the Elf Girl and the planned wedding were fabricated in the illusion, for Lis, that was enough to make a choice.
The memories might be false, but the Elf Girl’s feelings for him were undeniably real.
Even after returning to reality, Lis couldn’t bring himself to abandon Cecil and leave alone.
Lis waded through the blood on the street; the slimy, fishy sensation was nauseating, but his expression did not change much.
It was because in his previous life, in a world of chaos, he had experienced many bloody sacrifices rituals, and he soon adapted to the current situation.
While searching for Cecil, Lis thought as quickly as possible about clues.
The destruction of the Elf Royal Court might have happened a long time ago, most likely between the time after Elder Ricardo led the Elf Team out of the Elf Royal Court and when he and Cecil returned to it.
Since his body still existed, it meant that the illusion was more about affecting the spirit and soul, not so much the physical body.
Moreover, although the environment where Lis now found himself was almost turned into a crimson Hell, despite the ubiquitous blood and wriggling tumors—which were exceedingly revolting—they didn’t pose much of a threat to him.
