Chapter 498 - Identity Exposed



Chapter 498: Identity Exposed

Rebirth City.

Linus, who was standing at the entrance of the small alley, suddenly heard a voice filled with divine power in his mind. He wanted to kneel on one knee subconsciously.

“Was that a response from the gods? The elves can get a response from the gods again!”

Linus sighed emotionally in his heart. He really wanted to find someone to express the excitement and joy in his heart.

During the long years when the demons ruled the elves, there were many elves who could not get a response from the gods. They thought that the gods were dead, or that the gods had long abandoned the elves. That was why they had turned into Dark Elves.

Only a small portion of the elves thought that the gods were still alive. However, for some reason, they were unable to respond to their believers. That was why they had persisted for so long.

Linus initially believed that the gods were dead. At the same time, he had witnessed the power of the Dark Elves which was why he chose to change his faith. If not for his father’s death and Vincent’s influence, it would have been very difficult for him to revert back to his previous faith.

However, things were currently different. The gods had once again descended upon the land of the elves. The elves had other gods to believe in aside from Gajero. There was finally an opportunity to change the current situation!

Linus sighed in excitement, “Since the gods have asked me to head to Serene Spring City after completing my mission, doesn’t that mean that the apostles outside Serene Spring City have already been eliminated? It seems that as long as I reach Serene Spring City, I will be able to obtain more information about the gods. I have to hurry up!”

Linus turned his head to look at the alley with even more hope than before.

At that moment, the sound of a door closing could be heard by the side of the street. It instantly attracted Linus’s attention.

When Linus looked at the house beside him, he saw that the door had shut tightly. Only the wind chimes in front of the door frame were still swaying. This meant that someone must have been peeking from behind the door. The individual must have shut the door out of fear or carelessness.

Linus was not a bloodthirsty person. Furthermore, after receiving god’s response, he was aware that the gods were watching him, so he paid special attention to his words and actions.

Linus sighed softly, “Since the individual in the house did not come out when those hooligans rushed out, this must mean that he is either an old man or the wife of another Dark Elf. Even if they saw my true face, they would not be a threat. I’ll let them off!”

He then turned around and continued to walk into the alley.

However, at that moment, the sound of wood breaking was heard. Linus’s ears twitched, and he immediately sensed that someone had jumped out from the back window of the house.

A loud shout came from behind him.

“Someone, help! A Fire Elf has broken into Rebirth City…”

Linus heard the voice coming from behind the house. It was an adult male Dark Elf. He cursed in his heart that he had been careless. He quickly raised his spear. He was prepared to rush behind the house to silence the Dark Elf.

As a God had suddenly appeared, his chances of defeating the demons had increased by a lot. Linus would not give up on his mission!

No matter what price he had to pay today, even if he had to fight against the entire Rebirth City, he had to complete his mission and bring the evidence of the demons’ crimes to Serene Spring City!

However, when Linus walked to the back of the house, he saw the corpse of a Dark Elf. He had been stabbed in the chest and neck. Who could the murderer be?

Linus slowed down with a vigilant look on his face. He walked around the corner carefully and looked behind the house once again.

Suddenly, numerous figures with familiar faces flashed forward.

Linus looked at the Dark Elf closest to him and asked in surprise, “Gary! Why are you here?”

The nine figures that appeared in front of him were his subordinates who had followed him all the way from Dark Yuan City!

Previously, in order to avoid trouble, Linus had ordered Gary to lead everyone to stay in their rooms. However, he did not expect them to follow him in secret. Perhaps they had discovered his true identity!

Gary looked at Linus and hesitated for a long time before saying helplessly, “High Priest, we followed you because we were worried about you!”

Linus frowned and asked, “I have the strength of a level 40 creature. If I encounter a problem that I can’t solve, you probably won’t be able to help me either! Besides, the apostles are all outside Serene Spring City. I won’t meet any opponents in the city. What else do you need to worry about?”

Gary turned to look at his companions and then at the golden mask on Linus’s face. He said helplessly, “Actually, we already knew that you are no longer a Dark Elf, so we were worried that you would expose your identity in the city. Therefore, we decided to follow behind you in secret. We wanted to help get rid of unnecessary trouble for you, just like what happened earlier!”

Linus was speechless. He thought that he had hidden his true self very well. He would never let anyone see his face. How could his subordinates know his true identity?

Linus asked in an unnatural tone, “How did you find me?”

Gary paused before saying, “Back in Dark Yuan City, you would always scold the seven great Elf Kings every day. Later, when we left the city, you would bring us to pray to God Gajero every day! But ever since Devil Flame City, you have never led us to pray to Gajero. And when we left Imperial City, you would scold us every time you heard Gajero’s name. It was not hard for us to find out the truth!”

When Linus heard this, he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to cover his face. However, he did not realize that he was still wearing his golden mask.

At that moment, he realized that a mask was not enough to protect him from those closest to him. However, when his subordinates noticed that his belief had changed, they did not turn against him, nor did they expose him. Instead, they wanted to continue to protect him in the dark. This made Linus feel very touched, so much so that he did not know what to say for a moment. He wanted to cry.

He asked awkwardly, “You… you didn’t think of exposing me?”

Gary shook his head and quickly said, “No! We have followed you all the way here. Although we have experienced many near-death adventures, we have seen your responsibility and courage. We admire you sincerely. Therefore, regardless of whether you are a Dark Elf or any other kind of elf, you are the High Priest in our hearts! At the very most, we will follow whoever you believe in in the future and never return to Dark Yuan City!”

Linus sighed when he heard that. He lifted his hand and took off the golden mask on his face. He faced his subordinates with his true face.

Even though Gary and the others had long been mentally prepared, they could not help but look surprised when they saw Linus’s face, which had the characteristics of a Fire Elf.

Linus seemed to have finally let go of a heavy burden. He said with a relaxed expression, “Thank you for respecting my beliefs. I will also respect your beliefs! However, I must emphasize one point and that is we must return to Dark Yuan City, because that is our hometown. That is the territory of the Elf Race. We must return and pass on everything we have seen and heard on this trip to our family and friends. This is the responsibility of me and all of you!”

Gary and the others immediately answered in unison, “Yes!”

Linus nodded slightly and said, “Since we have already talked it out with everyone, then I will not hide it from everyone anymore! The mission that I received in Imperial City was not issued by the Demon Race, but by that foreign race that we have been chasing after. They told me a very important secret, and this secret is in the deepest part of the alley. Are you willing to go with me to witness it?”

Gary and the others immediately replied without the slightest hesitation, “We are willing!”

Linus smiled with relief and said in a deep voice, “Then, please follow me and quickly sneak into the inner part of the alley. Try not to make any noise along the way and don’t attract the attention of the nearby residents. We can kill a few hooligans who are blocking our way but we can’t slaughter those unarmed civilians of Rebirth City!”

Gary and the others nodded silently in response to Linus’s orders.

Linus then turned around and walked into the alley while the others quickly followed behind. The group passed through the alley quietly like a gust of wind.

However, after walking past two streets, they suddenly smelled a strong stench. They were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The street in front of them had long been reduced to ruins. Countless Dark Elf corpses were hanging upside down on the beams. Others were pierced by spears. They were hanging in the air like flags. It was obvious that they had experienced a brutal massacre!

“What happened here? How could such a thing occur?”

Gary, who was behind Linus, could not help but exclaim when he saw the scene in front of him. Then, he turned his head to the side and started retching vigorously.

Linus clenched his fists and narrowed his eyes. He sighed fiercely, “The same alley, the interior is like hell on earth, but the exterior looks very normal. Apparently, the group of Dark Elves earlier had massacred the residents in this alley and then pretended like nothing had happened. They continued to live here in secret. It seems like they are robbers who sneaked in from outside the city. They want to stay in Rebirth City to take advantage of the chaos. As long as the chaos in the city is over, they can turn this entire empty alley into their property and live the life of a rich man!”

After retching for a while, Gary stood up and cursed, “These b*stards really deserve to die. I killed them too fast. They are really lucky!”

Linus let out a light breath and said to everyone, “The secret coordinates are around here. Everyone, help to collect the bodies of the deceased here first. At the same time, pay attention to whether there is anything strange in the surroundings, especially the entrance to the underground space!”

Gary and the others replied in unison, “Yes!”

They then went forward to collect all the Dark Elves’ bodies. They placed them neatly together and covered them with a sheet of cloth. They were ready to bury them altogether.

Suddenly, Linus was attracted by a tall ancient tree in the middle of the street. He could see the hollow trunk through the crown of the tree.
