After Queen Rolandia of the elves dispersed all the elements from the magic circle, she let out a long sigh of relief and said to Griffith, who had already rushed to the crystal coffin at the center of the magic circle, "All right, Mr. 'Eagle,' your wife has successfully transformed. She will wake up in two days once she fully absorbs the magic within her."

Griffith took several deep breaths to finally stabilize his emotions and nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Without the pure magic of the high elves, Anqilia might not have been able to transform successfully. I have already seen the Light God's power that once resided within her dissipate. It seems we can finally be together again."

During the chaos of the battle that surrounded Griffith, his fiancée, Anqilia, was also killed. However, unlike Griffith, this tragic princess died under the holy martial skill "Blade of Judgment" wielded by a high-ranking paladin. Although Griffith later retrieved her body, preserved her soul, and used every method available on the Isle of the Undead to forcibly convert her into an undead, she remained in an eternal slumber due to the lingering holy energy within her. Griffith's relentless research into the transformation of holy undead was driven by his hope to neutralize the holy damage within his wife and awaken her once more.

The Elven Queen, having supported the magical ritual for several hours, was naturally not at ease, yet she remained composed and smiled, "Congratulations, sir. May you and your wife enjoy eternal companionship. However, this collaboration with you has also greatly benefited us, and I must thank you. We are now certain that your wife's transformation method is also suitable for our 'supernatural spirits.' Once all fourteen of our 'supernatural spirits' undergo this transformation, we can immediately initiate our 'Elven Armor Project.' At that point, even the Elder Council will have no reason to prevent our return to the mainland."

Griffith nodded, "It's a mutual benefit. Besides the elves, the orc race will also gain from this plan. The war launched by the southern continent is enough to disrupt the entire human war system. As long as the Orc Alliance does not make strategic mistakes, they will undoubtedly seize control of the western continent. It was because of these pre-planned strategies that Lord Blizzard worked so diligently, not only sending the twin hybrid elven sisters to complete the ritual but also diverting human attention through diplomatic visits, paving the way for our actions. As an undead, aside from personal reasons, I also have racial considerations. It's conceivable that once the orcs and elves control the southwestern parts of the continent, the undead will also enjoy greater freedom of movement on the mainland. Although most of the expansionist Liches have disappeared since the 'Undead War,' other research-oriented mages still need to travel the continent to gather materials and magical items. This is precisely why most of the undead on the island have chosen to support my actions."

The numerous elven mages on the elven side had already removed their additional equipment used during the spellcasting and, without a word, collectively bowed to the Queen before exiting through a side door of the underground hall. After returning the mages' salute, the Queen turned to Griffith and said, "Indeed, humans are the adversaries of all other intelligent races. This truth should be understood by every intelligent being. Unfortunately, some within our long-lived race are still lost in futile fantasies, believing they can maintain peace by hiding behind this magical barrier. However, humans have also been misled by the actions of those outdated elders, thinking that they represent the loudest voice of the elven kingdom. Fortunately, this has allowed us to prepare our strength unnoticed by humans. It won't be long before we give all humans a huge surprise."

The two long-lived, powerful beings exchanged a smile, their gazes simultaneously turning to the other side of the hall, where a massive brass door was sealed in the wall. Both the Elven Queen and the "Dark Eagle" knew that behind that door lay the secret that would allow the elven race to set foot on the mainland once again.

Everything still required time.

In the elven kingdom, everything was unfolding as Chen Xuanfeng had predicted. However, the situation around Chen Xuanfeng himself had somewhat exceeded the werewolf's expectations.

After leaving the elven kingdom, the silver-haired werewolf and his companions retrieved the "Ancient God" goblin battleship hidden deep beneath the sea, planning to return to the Orc Alliance by sea. Although this sea route was originally blocked by the Death Triangle and difficult to pass, Chen Xuanfeng had now reached an understanding with one of the Death Triangle's members, the Isle of the Undead, so he no longer worried about being unable to pass. Additionally, the goblin battleship's ability to both dive and fly made the journey smooth sailing.

Unfortunately, the ocean is always full of dangers, and on the seventh day of their voyage, they were suddenly and without warning attacked by a group of sea-winged dragons.

Sea-winged dragons are marine sub-dragon magical beasts with a trace of dragon bloodline. They have dragon heads and fish bodies, measuring 15 to 30 meters in length. Their hind limbs are webbed, while their forelimbs are wing-like membranes, allowing them to leave the water with the power of their tails and glide for several kilometers. Although their dragon bloodline is thin, their general level still reaches the eighth tier, and they are adept at the eighth-tier water magic "High-Pressure Water Mine Cannon." They also prefer to live in groups, with each community consisting of at least several dozen members. Encountering them is no easier than dealing with super magical beasts.

However, such strength was not enough to threaten Chen Xuanfeng and his companions. Even without the need to deploy the combat power of the three individuals on board, the goblin battleship remained submerged dozens of meters underwater and activated a weapon from the goblin empire era called the "Dissonant Chord Sonic Water Cutter," which instantly killed half of the thirty-plus sea-winged dragons and sent the rest fleeing in panic.

"Brother, this weapon is incredible! It instantly released dozens of water blades, even cutting down the dragons that flew out of the sea," Jin Luosha, sitting in the cabin, watched the entire battle process managed by the artificial human girl Li Jia and couldn't help but exclaim excitedly.
