Chapter 13: The Devourer of Elves
As if in response to Shi Leiyin's words, a cold wave of longing came over violently.
Shui Jing shuddered, hugged Shi Leiyin, "Brother Lei Yin......" opened her mouth a few times, but only squeezed out these four words. And the little attacker was even more unbearable, after his face turned pale, he couldn't even flap his wings, and he fell straight down. Fortunately, Shi Leiyin was close enough in her, and with a tentacle stretching out, she took it.
Shi Leiyin's brows also furrowed, unlike Shui Jing, he could clearly feel the content contained in this Nian Bo, not a murderous aura, but a strong appetite, the owner of the Sinian Wave has only one thought, which is to devour all the "elves" and these slimes are the "utensils" that have been summoned in order to devour the elves
"Huh?" Shi Leiyin was about to determine the location of the owner of the Sinian Bo in order to avoid this trouble - since the other party had no intentions for him, he didn't want to interfere with it. Shui Jing felt a chill from her body, and under the influence of the thought wave, Shui Jing actually reacted instinctively, and the magic elements of the water ice system were uncontrollably revealed.
"It's actually an elf devourer" Before Shi Leiyin could open his mouth to ask about Shui Jing's condition, the little attacker lying on his body woke up, "Your friend is a water spirit, and it can be regarded as a kind of elf." When you feel threatened by predators, you instinctively want to resist. The little assailant pointed to the breeze that had appeared on his body mixed with a glimmer of brilliance. "Elves who are good at controlling their own elements will only get out of control when they encounter natural predators. As if the pressure from the Misser wave was great, the little attacker took several deep breaths before continuing, "Now I believe that you are not the leader of the invaders, if you want to keep your companion, run away with her." It is said that although the elven devourer has the power of natural enemies against the elves, they can only follow the vision, and it should be too late to escape now. ”
"I say little fool, if this elf devourer can only rely on vision to act, how can it find the elves?" Shi Leiyin smiled, and a light yellow light mask expanded from his body, not too big or too small to envelop Shui Jing, himself and the little attacker. At the same time, Shui Jing and the little attacker also suddenly felt that the wave of thoughts that brought them incomparable pressure was cut off by this light mask.
"Enchantment?Also, don't call me stupid, people have names, they are forest elves Jieliya!......" Without the pressure of the missing wave, Jieliya immediately regained her vitality, and flew up all of a sudden, but directly pierced out of Shi Leiyin's light mask, was pressed by the thoughts wave outside, and fell straight down, falling on Shi Leiyin's body, and was bounced several times because of the amazing elasticity.
"The purpose of this enchantment is to block the thoughts wave outside, and it seems to work well for beginners. Shi Leiyin turned a tentacle into a palm, gently stroking the top of Shui Jing's head, making her feel at ease faster. "As long as we're in the enchantment, we shouldn't be discovered by that Spirit Devourer, of course, it's another matter if we are seen directly."
"Brother Lei Yin......" Shui Jing enjoyed accepting Shi Leiyin's caressing, closed her eyes and half-rested her head on Shi Leiyin in her arms. But it made Jieliya feel a little jealous.
Jieliya snorted, left Shi Leiyin's body, and after calculating for a while, stopped at the edge of the enchantment, staring straight at Shi Leiyin, but did not speak again.
Shi Leiyin didn't mind her actions, in fact, while opening the enchantment and appeasing Shui Jing, Shi Leiyin was also stretching out his thoughts, and he had to find the location of the elf devourer first, so as not to really be seen by the other party here. At the same time, knowing that Shui Jing was also threatened by the other party, Shi Leiyin knew that he could no longer stay out of the situation, and only by judging the strength of the other party in advance could he decide whether to escape or kill the threat. Shi Leiyin didn't feel any fear of having such thoughts, he had already realized this, since he was no longer human, then abiding by the law of the jungle was the guarantee of survival.
Just as Shi Leiyin followed the spirit devourer's thoughts wave to find its body, Jieliya, who had been silent, suddenly spoke
"If I give myself to you, can you save my people?"
Chapter 14: The Forest Spirits
"What?" Shi Leiyin's voice almost broke off because of this.
"I said, I'll make a sacrifice for myself, please save my people" Jie Liya's face was resolute "The Elf Devourer is the only natural enemy of the elves, and that sense of coercion makes the elves unable to exert any abilities, not even to escape. But your enchantment can block this coercion, and ......" As soon as Jie Liya raised her hand, a small wind blade flew out of Shi Leiyin's enchantment, cutting off a leaf, "Your enchantment does not affect the elemental attacks that we are best at, which gives us a chance to fight the natural enemy.
"Why fight? Isn't it good to choose to run away? That guy's speed doesn't seem to be as fast as he imagined," Shi Leiyin had found the source of the wave that sent out his thoughts. Compared to that wide range of thought waves, the spiritual power is not as strong as imagined.
"Didn't you ask before, since the Elven Devourer can only move with vision, how can they find the elves?"
"The Elven Tree?
"The Elven Tree is the root of an Elven race, all the Elves in the group are generated from the Elven Tree, and after death, the soul will return to the Elven Tree and become part of the leaves"
"However, the elven tree can't be moved, right" Shi Leiyin immediately thought of the reason why he couldn't escape, the elves could run, but the tree couldn't escape.
"The Elven Tree changes into a seed form once every hundred years, and it can migrate with the seed at that time, but now, it's been less than fifty years since the last time it reverted to the seed form......
"So you thought of exchanging yourself for me to help you resist the natural enemy?" Shi Leiyin motioned to Shui Jing with his tentacle not to make a sound, "Do you know what a sacrifice is?"
"I've found out that you're a fusion slime, as long as you're willing to build this enchantment around our elven realm, I'll give you my body, I'm a pure forest elf, whether it's magic or bloodline as an elf, it's worth your exchange for this enchantment."
"Why should I believe you?"
"As long as you build an enchantment, you can fuse me into your body first. ”
"What if your people turn their faces and don't recognize anyone at that time?"
"You can build an enchantment and leave right away!"
“............”
“............”
"Take me to your elven secret realm first" After staring at each other for a while, Shi Leiyin still spoke first under Shui Jing's increasingly big 'small movements', "If your clan also agrees to this plan, I will agree to you this condition"
"They will definitely agree" Jie Liya got Shi Leiyin's promise and smiled, but in Shi Leiyin's opinion, this smile has a hint of desolation. Moreover, that look was not because he was going to die, but more like a look of relief.
"Hold on to your enchantment and follow me. Jieliya didn't give Shi Leiyin much time to think, and flew directly out of the barrier. Naturally, he was once again affected by the Spirit Devourer's thoughts wave and fell into the tentacles of Shi Leiyin, who had been prepared for a long time.
"It's not funny" Jalia was a little annoyed, though even she didn't understand why.
"You show the way, I'll take you there" Shi Leiyin ignored Jieliya and put her into Shui Jing's arms with his backhand, while he stood on the ground. With a twist of mind, Shi Leiyin's body changed instantly, and the original blue spherical body expanded several times, and became a shape like a flat saucer.
Eight pitch-black spider legs appeared around the 'saucer'. "Jing'er, come up with Jie Liya" Shi Leiyin's voice came from the plate, which woke up Shui Jing in surprise and quickly sat down in the center of the plate.
"Jie Liya, direction?!"
"Ah, my right finger is going straight in the direction of my right finger...... Ahhhhh......h
