The golden sun hung high in the sky, and there were no clouds.

Bright sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, and the gray harbor is shaded by lush trees and flowers.

Summer is coming.

Even in the elven forest, where spring is like spring all year round, the temperature rises a lot under the scorching sun, especially in the city.

Fortunately, the city of the Elven Forest has always been full of lush plants, and it is surrounded by lush forests.

Although the construction of Gray Harbor has not been long, as a city of elves, it has been blessed by Eve, the goddess of life, and any vegetation planted here can grow quickly, so the green space of the city has long been perfected.

The photosynthesis of plants absorbs the sun's rays, and the water vapor emitted by transpiration takes away the heat from the air, and the Vimur River, the largest river in the world, is nearby......

Where there is water, it will be cooler.

Because of this, even if you stand on the ground and look at the sky, you can feel the scorching sun, but the gray harbor is still cool and refreshing.

The north side of the central city of Grey Harbor, a residential area.

Natsume stood in front of his newly built Gray Harbor Villa, looking at the beautiful elf-style building in front of him, and his expression was extremely satisfied.

He is one of the first beta players in Elven Realm, and a long-time member of the Natureheart Guild.

After his guild built a new city, he decisively moved his family to Gray Port, and his hometown in the central city of the Chosen City was rented out to earn some extra money to contribute.

With the experience of the Chosen City, this time he has expanded the size of his villa several times.

It no longer looks like a simple villa, but more like a manor.

Behind the villa, there is also a large area of garden, which is the place where Natsume used to house his own magical beasts.

In fact, this is also the most important reason for Natsume's move.

Natsume is a druid and priest player who is a druid.

Not only that, but like most other first-time players, he was promoted to the Silver rank a few months ago, and even reached the top 50 of the Silver rank before and after the founding of the city.

It can be regarded as a well-known silver druid boss in the whole server.

However, he has a somewhat different hobby from other players.

In addition to the daily monster fighting upgrades, what he likes to do the most is to raise demon pets.

Unicorns, Wind Wolves, Forest Bears......

Many of the rare and powerful monsters known to players in "Elf Country" have been collected by him and raised in his own garden.

Even, he also has a red dragon cub, which was drawn a few months ago, and it can be regarded as a winner in life.

Speaking of which...... The fact that he was able to rise to the Silver Rank so quickly had something to do with this little guy.

The Red Dragon's desire to fight is too strong.

Every two days, he needs to take his little red dragon to the forest to play around, and the red dragon has to find a monster to fight every time.

This little guy is very fond of playing with his prey, and always beats the other party half to death.

The last time, it's Natsume's end.

The monster that was defeated by the little guy, if it is pleasing to the eye, it can be saved, and if it is pleasing to the eye, it will be appeased and appeased, and if it is not pleasing to the eye or can not be saved, it will directly eat the experience.

As a result, Natsume collected more and more magical beasts......

However, although after the layers of "screening" by the red dragon, there are almost no weak people in the Warcraft raised by Natsume, but instead of sending his own Warcraft to fight, Natsume still prefers the feeling of raising these guys and playing with these Warcraft.

He was always very fond of animals.

Ever since he licked the unicorn in the northern area of the Elven Forest, he felt that the magic pet system in "Elven Country" was also quite interesting.

While these monsters aren't as intelligent as NPCs, they're also much smarter than those in other games, and they're as interactive as real-life pets.

And, as long as you're genuinely nice to them, they'll be loyal to you.

Natsume loves the feeling of being surrounded by his own monsters.

Of course, posting screenshots of himself playing with Warcraft on the forum and posting them on Weibo is also another hobby of his.

But because of this, I unexpectedly gained a lot of fans.

Even, he has received many questions from players about how to catch Warcraft and how to raise Warcraft.

It's a pity that not everyone can use the Red Dragon Dafa.

Occasionally, you can help someone catch a Warcraft, or help non-Druid players communicate with Warcraft.

Natsume is quite good at this.

Because he likes magic pets, many of the skills he redeems are related to magic beasts, such as [Nature Whisper] that communicates with all things, [Forest Sigh] that soothes monsters, and [Healing Soul] that heals injuries.

is also because he is good at communicating with Warcraft, is good at raising Warcraft, and even summarized his communication and breeding experience and posted it on the official website forum, and accidentally opened up a new genre in "Elf Country"-

"Beast Flow".

Of course, the later development of this new genre may not be the same as Natsume's original intention.

Natsume just loves Warcraft.

However, many players who carry forward the "Royal Beast Flow" have opened up a group of Warcraft to raise a group of Warcraft, close the door and release Warcraft during the battle, and they only need to harvest the opponent when the Warcraft beats the opponent half to death......

It can be regarded as giving full play to the freedom of "Elf Country".

Here, there's nothing you can't do, only what you can't think of.

After entering his own garden and feeding those large and small monsters, Natsume stretched out in satisfaction.

He looked at the time and saw that almost an hour had passed.

In the game, of course.

"There are more and more pets, and it takes more and more time to feed, maybe I should hire a half-elf or elf NPC to help me take care of them......"

Natsume muttered to herself.

Hiring NPCs was something that players didn't dare to think about in the past.

However, as the number of players increased, more and more players began to try the trade stream gameplay, and the common currency of the world of Seggs began to circulate among players.

While not as useful as Contribution, the Universal Currency is a tool for players to trade with NPCs.

Even the elves of the Forest of Elves have gradually become accustomed to the way of purchasing various goods in the Chosen City with a common currency in the course of communication with players.

This did not exist in the past.

Because the elves haven't used much currency for almost a thousand years.

And the currency in the hands of the elves is naturally the "salary" that the players hire them to pay.

It's been a year since Elven Nation was launched, and four years have passed in the game, which is enough time for players to gain a foothold in the game and have a deeper exchange with the natives of Seggs.

Not to mention anything else, in the earliest days, the taverns and shops opened by players were watched by the players themselves, especially those new players, who were often caught by old players as coolies in order to accumulate contributions.

But now, a lot of people are hiring elves or half-elves to do these things.

Especially after the Oros half-plane began to have a large number of half-elves with purified bloodlines entering the world of Seggs.

Having received the elven inheritance and instinctively respecting the Chosen One, they look like shops and waiters are much more suitable than the players themselves.

With the idea of hiring a half-elf NPC to help him take care of the monsters, Natsume planned to mention it the next time he saw his guild leader, Li Mu.

Li Mu knows a lot of NPCs, and if you ask him, you will definitely be able to find a professional and reliable one.

"Just, just send a message and ask."

Natsume thought for a moment.

He found Li Mu's name from the chat list, then clicked on the dialog box and sent his request.

After a while, he received a reply from his guildmaster:

"No problem, I'll help you ask."

Seeing Li Mu's reply, Natsume breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he whistled and called out to his little red dragon, who was bullying the giant bear in the backyard:

"Lelia, come with me to the Chosen City."

“RUA~！”

With a childish cheer, he was knocked down by a large red unidentified object, and then licked his saliva.

Natsume: ......

"Stop licking, slimy, hahaha...... Itchy...... Where are you licking! Don't be naughty! Get down to me......"

He said helplessly and dotingly.

It took a lot of effort for him to pull his red dragon cub off his body.

Looking at the little red dragon standing upright with its feet and a big tail constantly wagging it, Natsume really wondered if he had raised the other party crookedly, or maybe there was a soul belonging to a dog living in the consciousness of his own red dragon......

"You're heavy again, growing so fast."

He petted the other's head dotingly.

At first, he had to bend down to touch the little one's head, but now he only had to stand.

"I'm looking forward to the day when you'll grow to the size of Merrell, an adult red dragon...... It must be imposing! ”

Natsume laughed.

“RUA~！”

The little red dragon also raised his head proudly.

Throwing the little one a piece of his favorite jerky as a snack, Natsume rode on its back.

"Let's go, teleport to the Chosen City first, and then go to the World Canopy."

Recently, Natsume has been going to the World Tree Canopy every three days to clean the Temple of the Supreme Life on the trunk of the World Tree.

This was his chief priestly trial mission.

Cities built by the player can appoint priests in the city's temples.

When appointing a priest, you can choose either a player or an NPC.

However, whether it is to choose a player or an NPC, there are certain requirements that must be met by the person chosen.

The NPC must have the qualifications of a priest in its own right, while the player must have a high enough reputation and NPC rating, in addition to passing the Trials quest.

Natsume is not the highest-ranking priest in the Nature's Heart Guild, but his reputation and NPC ratings are good.

In addition, he doesn't like to run around very much on weekdays, except for catching monsters and sneaking monsters, and he has a long online time, so after the high-level vote of the Nature's Heart Guild, he finally defeated another priest boss who could not guarantee a stable online time by a slight margin, and became the reserve chief priest of Gray Harbor.

Of course, this is also because a certain female licking dog is now indulging in the new Broken God Kingdom quest with her best friend, and she swears that she will definitely find the hidden quest about the goddess in the new quest......

It's just that Natsume still has to pass the trial.

In fact, the trial is not difficult, it is to regularly clean the temple on the trunk of the World Tree, and participate in the chief priest training course organized by St. Alice, and after passing the training, you can take office.

But compared to other games, it's also quite troublesome, and it seems that there are exams to be taken, so many priest players are dissuaded.

But what can be left is basically true love.

It's not the first time that Little Red Dragon has traveled back and forth between the two cities with his contractual partner.

It carried Natsume with ease, and flew to the teleportation circle under the envious and jealous eyes of a group of new and old players, and teleported to the Chosen City.

With seven new cities, the popularity of the Chosen City has decreased a lot, but the flow of people is still the best, and it is also the most developed place for trade.

Natsume rode the red dragon and teleported to the Supreme Life Temple on the trunk of the World Tree thousands of meters above through the second teleportation circle.

Turning over and getting off the little red dragon, he threw a piece of jerky to the little guy again, and said:

"Lelia, I'm going to the temple, come pick me up in an hour."

“RUA~!”

The little red dragon nodded.

"Don't go to shops that harm other players, especially rotisserie."

“RUA~!”

The little red dragon hesitated for a moment, then nodded reluctantly.

"Don't bully other players' Warcraft."

“RUA……”

The little guy pouted humanely and was about to spit in the face of his contractual partner.

"Obedient, I'll take you to the North District to play."

Natsume patted the other party's head.

“RUA!”

Hearing the word "North District", the little red dragon's eyes lit up, and then he shouted excitedly, and then twisted his ass and flew away.

Seeing the red dragon leaving, Natsume also smiled, tidied up the priest's robe he had changed on, and entered the temple.

The Temple of the Supreme Life was huge, especially after the World Tree grew again, and Alice organized a manpower to expand it.

When Natsume expanded, he realized that in fact, the original Supreme Temple itself was incomplete, and it was just a branch of the Temple on the World Tree a thousand years ago.

It's just that after the Divine War thousands of years ago, the World Tree fell into a deep sleep, and its body shrank rapidly, and even the temple on it collapsed to the point that only a side hall remained.

These are the secrets that Alice told them.

However, although the expanded temple is a lot more troublesome to clean, with the help of magic and other NPCs, Natsume's speed is still not slow.

After an hour had passed, he had completed his task.

After bowing to the idol of the goddess and saying goodbye to the NPC priest stationed in the temple, Natsume walked out of the Temple of the Highest.

Then, whistled again.

Of course, whistling is just a formality, in fact, while whistling, he will summon each other through his secret connection with his dragon companions.

It's just that after he finished whistling, Lelia didn't come back after a long time.

Natsume frowned slightly.

He called up the magic pet system and looked at Lelia's panel, and after seeing that the little red dragon was in a normal state, his heart was a little more steady.

Then, call again.

The little red dragon hasn't come back yet.

Natsume: ......

"Where did this guy go again?"

He scratched his head.

The little red dragon is good at everything, but it is too good to toss.

Natsume sighed and summoned several more times before finally hearing a familiar immature dragon chant:

“RUA!”

It came from above.

He looked up, and then saw the crown of the World Tree sway, and his own little red dragon emerged from it and flew in front of him.

“RUA~! RUA~!”

It hissed happily.

Natsume has the ability to [whisper naturally], and although he can't understand dragon language, he can understand the meaning of the little guy.

"Huh? You say you've found something fun in the canopy of the world? ”

Natsume was slightly stunned.

Presumably, it's the light cocoon of the born elf.

It is said that this is how the primordial elves were born, and when the player is resurrected, they are also resurrected from the World Tree and teleported directly to the ground.

It's just that the little red dragon shook his head:

“RUA！”

"Huh? Not the usual light cocoons of the past, but very small light clusters, and lots and lots of them? ”

Natsume raised an eyebrow.

The little red dragon nodded.

"Small, large number of light clusters?"

Natsume had a hint of curiosity in her heart.

He patted the little guy and said:

"Take me to see it."

The little red dragon screamed happily, and then wagged his tail as he flew Natsume towards the lush canopy of the World Tree.

The canopy of the World Tree is incomparably huge and towers into the sky.

Here, the clouds fall at your feet, and it is magnificent and magnificent.

And when Natsume rode the red dragon to the depths of the canopy of the World Tree, which he had never come to before, he was instantly stunned by the scene in front of him.

Light.

That's the light.

Thousands of clusters of light in different colors adorned the branches of the World Tree, like fruits, incomparably bright.

Those clusters of light are constantly vibrating, full of vitality and vitality.

"What is this?"

Natsume said in surprise.
