Volume II, chapters 31, 32

Chapter 31: Heading North

The farewell of the elves was more free and easy than Shi Leiyin imagined, Jie Liya just symbolically waved her hand, and left the secret realm with him, and even walked faster than Shi Leiyin and Shui Jing.

For Jie Liya to follow him, Shi Leiyin has no surprises. However, he can walk so freely, which still makes Shi Leiyin a little puzzled. However, according to Jieliya herself, the forest elves originally had a tradition of traveling outside the secret land, but this was for elves who were over two hundred years old. It's the first one like Jieliya to go out at her age.

Ignoring Jie Liya's strong request to go southeast, Shi Leiyin took Shui Jing and chose to continue north. This made the elf depressed for a long time, but depressed to depressed, after listening to Shi Leiyin tell that there is such a novelty as 'snow' in the north, Jie Liya's mood immediately became as bright as the sun on her head, and soon became the one who walked in the forefront again.

The forest elves are worthy of being forest elves, and when Jie Liya adjusts her route intentionally or unintentionally, Shi Leiyin finds that they have almost always traveled on a very safe route. Because of the addition of an uncontrollable elf, Shi Leiyin has always kept his sensing ability fully open, but Jie Liya can always subconsciously change her route before encountering a dangerous area to avoid the danger that may exist. Shi Leiyin was envious of the elf's instinctive ability to avoid trouble, and he once asked Jie Liya when he was resting if she would change the direction of action because she might feel threatened, but the answer was that the elf was completely choosing the route based on his preferences.

"Hey, how long will it take to get to the north" Jieliya's patience was directly proportional to the size of her body, and it had been less than ten days since she left the elf secret realm, and the elf's enthusiasm had already burned out. However, because of Shi Leiyin's praise for her ability, Jie Liya still flew at the front of the team to open the way, but she had to go back and ask such a question almost every hour.

"I don't know how long it will take, anyway, when I see the snowfield, I should be in the north," Shi Leiyin replied casually to the elf, since the first time Jie Liya asked this question, he has been quietly calculating the speed of travel, but unfortunately the number he got is that he can only walk about fifty kilometers a day at most. According to this speed and his understanding of the size of the Polar Continent, if he wants to go to the north, even if it doesn't take a year, he has to have seven or eight months, which is still based on the fact that there is Jie Liya leading the way and no accidents happen. Of course, this speed was much faster than the two years that Shi Leiyin had expected when he first left the Treant Forest, so Shi Leiyin focused more on not letting Shui Jing leave the team. Shui Jing only settled for the first few days. After learning from Shi Leiyin that many dangers could be avoided by being led by Jieliya, the water spirit's curiosity journey began again. However, in addition to Shi Leiyin, there was also Jie Liya who was questioned this time. The elf's good impression of Shui Jing made her basically answer all questions, but it saved Shi Leiyin a lot of effort, but Shui Jing often stayed there to observe because she was curious about something, and Shi Leiyin had to drag the little water spirit away with her tentacles every time.

"Woo, Brother Lei Yin, let me see it for a while" Shui Jing, who was forcibly dragged away by Shi Leiyin with a tentacle, looked aggrieved, this expression only appeared after she and Jie Liya became good friends, and the humanized expression was simply outstanding when it was used on Shi Leiyin for the first time. But now, Shi Leiyin was completely unmoved, because Shui Jing would use this trick almost every time he was dragged away. The third tentacle reached over and tapped lightly on Shui Jing's head, "This is the twentieth nest of ants you saw" Shi Leiyin's voice was extremely helpless, Shui Jing was interested in ants for some reason, and almost every time she saw it, she would be attracted to attention.

"Whew, it's cute."

"No matter how cute you are, you don't have to stare at it every time you see it."

"Woo, that Brother Lei Yin carried me!" Shui Jing simply stopped and didn't leave, her body was much bigger than Shi Leiyin, who was in a round ball state, and when she stopped, Shi Leiyin was pulled by her.

"Hey, and me, and me" Jie Liya's ears were very sensitive, and she still heard Shui Jing's words far away, and flew back in a hurry. For the Shi Lei Yin brand carriage, her interest is no less than that of Shui Jing.

Looking at Shui Jing's standard watery eyes and Jie Liya with an excited face, Shi Leiyin sighed, "Just for a while, it's very consuming to transform." ”

Chapter 32: Encountering Humanity Again

Frolicking all the way to the north, with Shi Leiyin's occasional transformation carrying two elves on his back, the advance speed was much faster than before. However, there are gains and losses, and Shi Leiyin does not have the natural ability to avoid threats like Jieliya. When moving at high speed, they often directly crash into the territory of some beasts or places like poison barriers, but fortunately, none of the three creatures is a weak human, and the territory of the beasts is directly passed through at high speed. Under the protection of Shi Leiyin's body, the two elves didn't even need to release their own defenses to wade over.

On the twentieth day of such a day, Shi Leiyin, who was running in the forest with Jie Liya and Shui Jing on his back, suddenly felt a light in his eyes, and stopped his steps to find that he had already passed out of the forest, and unlike the day before, his eyes were full of trees, and now in front of them was an endless plain.

"Wow, it's so wide" Jie Liya was the first to express her opinion, in the elven secret realm, the largest open space is just a grass the size of a court, and it is naturally completely incomparable to the plain in front of her. The elf excitedly swirled around Shi Leiyin's head.

"You're an elf, not a fly, don't make such a fuss, okay"

Shi Leiyin was a little dizzy and complained. "If my memory is correct, this should be the Sangu Great Plain, the most suitable place for human habitation in the Polar Continent. ”

"Humans, you mean those humans who are uglier than the goblins, but better looking than the monkeys?" Jieliya's serious inquiring expression made Shi Leiyin feel amused, but it was also true, although the appearance of elves and goblins is very close to humans, but they are indeed much more beautiful, even if it is Shui Jing's appearance that completely changes according to the appearance of humans, it has also corrected a lot of places intentionally or unintentionally, in terms of a human aesthetic concept, even if it is not a country and a city, at least it can be regarded as a disaster.

"Humans are also beautiful, at least some are more beautiful than you. Although Shi Leiyin was teasing the goblin, he didn't talk nonsense, at least Jessica had the appearance of not losing to Jieliya, and Charlotte's adult appearance was even better than the goblin.

"Hmph, I don't believe it, although I'm not as beautiful as Patriarch Anwei'er, I can be considered one of the best in the clan...... Woo...... Anyway, I don't believe it!" Jie Liya was forced by Shi Leiyin's 'look' to interrupt her self-praise words, and instead pinched Shi Leiyin's body and played tricks. The elf's way of playing tricks was very vicious, grabbing a small piece of Shi Leiyin's body with his small hand, and then pulling and spinning vigorously, making Shi Leiyin's originally smooth body change the shape of a water droplet.

"Okay, Miss Jieliya is much more beautiful than humans, it's me who is a low-level slime who doesn't have an aesthetic eye, don't pull my body, it's about to be torn off"

Naturally, it was impossible for Jie Liya to break Shi Leiyin's body, but some things just discovered distracted Shi Leiyin's attention, so that he could only beg for mercy first, so that he could concentrate on whether it was a potential threat.

After getting Shi Leiyin's surrender declaration, Jie Liya stopped pulling with satisfaction, but still lay on top of Shi Leiyin's head. Although the size of Shi Leiyin's round ball form can only be held by Shui Jing, it is enough for Jie Liya's entire body to lie on it, so Shi Leiyin complained about Shui Jing's eccentricity.

As Jaliya's movements stopped, Thunder's ears gradually discerned the sounds that caught his attention from the surrounding noises, the sound of metals colliding against each other, and to be clear, the impact of two weapons intersecting. In addition to this, one or two muffled grunts that came from time to time also proved one thing, there was a human struggle nearby. Based on his current position, Shi Leiyin estimated that he had encountered a 'legendary' roadblock.

"Lei Yin, is there something fighting?" Jie Liya put her head in front of Shi Leiyin, the elf's sense of hearing was more sensitive than Shi Leiyin, and after calming down, she naturally noticed these unnatural fighting sounds, "It seems to be behind that small hill, let's go over and take a look." Regardless of whether Shi Leiyin agreed or not, Jie Liya pulled Shui Jing and walked forward, but was stopped by Shi Leiyin.

"In the past, you can, but you are only allowed to watch, no matter what happens, don't be discovered by humans, remember!" Shi Leiyin's tone was very strict, but the elf looked indifferent.

"If it is discovered by humans, it will be very troublesome, and you don't want everyone to be in danger, right" Seeing that Jieliya ignored her warning, Shi Leiyin had no choice but to lower her voice and tell the elf about her worries.

"Got it, let's go to the hillside and look down secretly, it's okay not to get close to those humans, it's the first time people have seen humans" If she just put herself and Shi Leiyin in danger, Jie Liya wouldn't have taken care of it so much, but since it also involved Shui Jing, she just didn't want to think about Shui Jing's safety.
