Chapter 207: Unicorn

After taking a few steps, Eve could clearly hear the players talking.

"Awesome! Salandiel: How did you catch it? ”

The loud voice was Demacia, and there was an irrepressible excitement in his words.

"How many times have I said that I didn't catch it, but I saw that it was injured, and I would bring it back."

The tone of the primordial elf Sarandil was a little helpless, and his voice was mellow and gentle, very good.

"Do you have to tie it with a rope when you bring it back?"

Li Mu's voice was a little speechless.

"No way...... It's so uncooperative, and I haven't learned healing magic yet, so I have to bring it back compulsorily to find someone to heal, and ...... Didn't I already let go of it?"

Sarandil spread his hands.

"But then again, it's so handsome and beautiful! It is worthy of the sacred beast in the legend of Western Fantasy! ”

"If you can take it as a mount, it will have to throw off the crypt spider for dozens of streets, right?"

Demacia's voice was tinged with excitement.

Mounts?

Eve's heart moved.

She took a few steps forward and came behind a few players, finally seeing what they were watching.

It was a snow-white animal, resembling a slender white horse with a spiral-like horn on the top of its head.

It knelt in the corner, warily watching the players surrounding it, while it had a distinct beast claw mark on its hind legs, badly wounded, dripping with crimson blood......

This is...... Unicorn?

Eve was slightly stunned.

Unicorns are a type of magical beast unique to the Forest of Elves, and when they are adults, they have the strength of black iron to silver, and if they sign contracts with other wisdoms, they can even grow further.

They are snow-white and have a white appearance with a spiral horn on their heads, but their manes and tails are much longer than those of ordinary horses, and they look very noble and beautiful.

Unicorns are arrogant and stubborn, preferring to live in forest areas with high mana concentrations, they are fast runners, they are both wind and nature, and the sharp horns on the top of their heads can also release healing and antidote magic.

Merely...... Unicorns' magic does not work on their own, and they often use their magic to help their companions in need.

This beautiful creature is mentioned in the World Tree Inheritance that Eve obtained.

During the Silver Civilization period, many elves would cultivate their own unicorns, and they would call each other partners.

It's just that with the thousand-year-old war, the World Tree fell, the elves declined, and the unicorns also encountered similar treatment to the elves......

With their beautiful appearance and unique healing magic, they are also regarded as the best pets by other races. And even if they can't be accepted as magic pets, their sharp horns are the best magic materials, and they are sought after by many races.

Especially humans.

With the support of humans, the orcs also began to hunt unicorns on a large scale and sell them to the human world.

It's just that unicorns are arrogant and stubborn, and only those who they actively approve of will get their following.

They are cautious and sensitive to the emotions of other creatures, and it is difficult to become a companion with unicorns if they are initially resisted by the unicorn.

Because of the stubborn and vigilant character of the unicorn, the saying that unicorns only like pure and innocent virgins has gradually spread in human society, and only beautiful and kind girls will capture their hearts......

Of course, these are all rumors.

It's just true that unicorns are hard to subdue.

Except for the Great Druid, who is powerful and has a generally friendly relationship with Warcraft, other intelligent beings can only befriend them by luck.

And if they are forcibly caught, the unicorn will not accept taming and enslavement, and eventually choose to go on a hunger strike and die.

Thinking back on the legacy of the World Tree, Eve looked at the unicorn surrounded by the players.

This is a unicorn that is on the small side, and it looks like it is not yet an adult, and its strength is black iron median.

Because of the injuries on his body, it is estimated that even a player with a high level of black iron can easily subdue it now.

Looking at the unicorn, though, Eve thought of more.

Unicorns are social creatures.

When players encounter one, it means that there must be a whole race behind it.

After the decline of the elves, the level of magic in the core area of the elven forest gradually decreased, and the unicorn gradually disappeared in the forest.

Rumor has it that they migrated further north in the Elven Forest......

Now it seems that with the increase in the level of magic in the core area of the Elven Forest, it is likely that they have migrated back from the north.

Eve could see why the player was so excited.

No matter how you look at it, such beautiful creatures are indeed the best choice for mounts, and their compatibility with elves is somehow higher than that of the Crypt Spider.

However, it is not easy to gain their approval.

Unicorns eat soft rather than hard, and they rely on their eyes, and it is difficult to subdue them with the violent methods of the players.

However, the unicorn is also a creature that values gratitude, and if you help it, you can easily gain its friendship.

"I'll talk about the rest later, I'll treat it first."

Looking at the injuries on the unicorn's hind legs, Li Mu groaned.

It's just that as soon as he took a step forward, the unicorn struggled, and while groaning, he panted and twisted his body to show his sharp horns, making a defensive gesture, and he didn't allow Li Mu to take a step closer at all, let alone treat.

"No...... I feel like it's so hot-tempered...... No one gets close to it......"

"Come on, come on, let's hold it together! Let's force it to heal its wounds first. ”

Demacia suggested.

For a moment, several players stepped forward and held it down, trying to forcibly heal it.

The injured unicorn was no match for the players, who quickly took control of it, and all it could do was struggle and moan, writhing its body.

"Hurry up! Brother Mu, treat it! ”

Li Mu nodded, chanted a spell and cast a ring of magic [Healing Injuries].

Pale green energy converged in his hands and poured into the unicorn's wound with his command, just ...... To everyone's surprise, the unicorn's injuries did not abate.

"What's going on?"

Li Mu was slightly stunned.

"I'll try."

Said another druid player.

With that, he also chanted the incantation.

Merely...... His healing spells didn't work at all.

"This ...... Why can't it be treated? ”

The players were amazed.

"Of course, you can't cure it."

Just as the players were confused, a soft sigh came from behind them.

Several people turned around and found that it was Alice, the saint of nature, who spoke.

Dressed in a noble natural priestly dress, she came behind the players at some point.

After seeing who it was, the players hurriedly put on a warm smile and subconsciously saluted respectfully:

"Good afternoon, Lord Alice!"

As a rare purple NPC on the whole server, Alice has already established her prestige among players.

Everyone wants to have a good relationship with the Holy Maiden, lick the favorability, and then ask for a few rare private tasks, so the posture is quite respectful.

And Eve, who was watching in a vest next to the player, also saluted the elf girl like a crowd.

"Hello, the Chosen One."

Alice nodded to the players.

Then, she looked at the unicorn with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes:

"I really didn't expect that after so many years, there would be a chance to see a unicorn again. Don't...... As nature's darlings, do they also sense the return of the Mother Goddess? ”

With that, she commanded the player again:

"Let it go, unicorns have a special constitution, and if they don't want to, your healing magic won't be able to work on their bodies."

"! Is the demon free from the physique?! ”

Demacia subconsciously burst into foul language.

Alice didn't bother with him, but said to the other players:

"Therefore, you must not use force, but communicate with it first."

And with the NPC's commands, players quickly let go of their grip on the unicorn.

Seeing the actions of the players, Alice looked at Li Mu again:

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have mastered [Nature Whisper], you can use this spell to communicate with it."

Li Mu was stunned, and then patted his head:

"yes, how did I forget about it."

After spending his contribution points to exchange for a few druid's powerful skills during this time, he almost forgot about the "weak chicken" skill given by this goddess!

Thinking of this, Li Mu hurriedly cast [Nature Whisper] and said to the unicorn:

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you, but we will treat your injuries."

Listening to Li Mu's words, the unicorn raised its head slightly.

It seems to be a lot calmer, but the eyes that look at the players are still wary and vigilant.

"It works!"

Li Mu was overjoyed.

However, when he was about to step forward for treatment, the unicorn stepped back again, once again showing resistance.

Li Mu: ......

"This ...... Not yet, it's too sensitive. ”

Seeing the unicorn's reaction, Alice was not surprised:

"This is normal, the unicorn has a cautious and vigilant personality, and the strong actions you have taken before have already made it wary of you."

"That'...... What now? ”

Alice sighed and said:

"Now, it won't trust you, or even come near you, you're too close to it. Stand back, I'll heal it. ”

Listening to her words, the players had to take a few steps back and make way for Alice.

Alice, on the other hand, walked towards the unicorn and added:

"With the crypt spider in front of you, I can probably guess what kind of mentality you have towards unicorns."

"I can only remind you here that the unicorn is a traditional companion of the elves, symbolizing nobility, beauty and purity......"

"Elves are naturally more likely to be favored by unicorns than other races, but ...... If you look at it with the idea of enslavement from the beginning, then you will never get its approval. ”

"The only people who can win the favor and approval of unicorns as soon as they meet are true druids, and people who are friendly and sincere, pure-minded, and love nature. There are not many such people among the traditional elves, let alone you who are the chosen ones. ”

With that, Alice came to the unicorn, crouched down and began to perform healing spells on it.

It's just that as soon as the elf girl squatted down, the unicorn struggled to stand up, and even didn't accept her treatment, and limped away directly in front of her.

And seeing the unicorn like this, Alice's brows also furrowed slightly:

"This is a problem...... Maybe you frightened it too much before, and now no one trusts it. Perhaps, I can only go to Barcelona......"

Alice's words were not finished.

Because the unicorn moved again.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, it limped to Eve, who was wearing a waistcoat, and lay down obediently at her feet......

By the way, he also raised his head and rubbed her calf flatteringly......

Li Mu: ......

Demacia: ......

Sarandil: ......

Alice:......

Eve:......
