"Please go this way......"

In the jungle of Rowena's secret island, Maca, Luna, and Hermione are slowly following the elf elder Lark in a certain direction.

Speaking of which, this time Maca really didn't expect that none of the small tricks and tricks she had prepared could be used.

Originally, he wanted Luna and Hermione, two kind-hearted girls, to meet the elves together, but he secretly followed them incognito to ensure their safety.

He thinks that these elves, who have more bloodline talents, may usually have a better affection for pure girls than unicorns.

When negotiating, there is always a big gap between good feelings and bad feelings. Coupled with the fact that Hermione's words are sometimes very persuasive, it should make things easier.

As for himself, he only needs to be there for them when it is time to appear, and be honest as a translator.

Yes, as it turned out, he did guess right.

But he also guessed wrong. Because he noticed that when the elves saw Luna and Hermione, they showed even stranger reactions.

In other words, it was as if they had seen a rare creature in a zoo, and they immediately gathered around with extraordinary enthusiasm.

Because of this, Maca, who was a little worried about Luna and Hermione, had to take the initiative to show up and stand with them.

And then, the elf elder Rak appeared.

"Oh, a girl who is pampered by nature......"

When Old Luck said that, he looked at Luna, who Maca hadn't intended to bring with him.

"Human girl, if you don't mind, can you come with me and say a few words in front of my ancestors? I believe that the ancestors will be very happy......"

When Maca heard this, her heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, could it be that there is still an old monster living on this island? He even offered to go along.

Fortunately, old Luck had no intention of stopping him.

So, the three of them followed Old Luck around the magic tower and into the dense jungle behind the tower.

The jungle on this secret island is still full of green, and the canopy is not as dense as the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, so dense that no light can penetrate it.

The rainy Mediterranean climate in winter makes the foliage of various low evergreen bushes stretch out, and most of them can only reach the crook of the legs. The moss-covered trunks of the trees reveal a fresh green, which is complemented by the bright flowers among the bushes.

Most of the trees and plants that grow in this climate secrete volatile oils, which, combined with the fragrant floral scent, make you smell the strong fragrance that fills your nose just by walking in the forest.

The bright sunlight pierced through the gaps in the leaves, forming beautiful pillars of light that were slightly slanted.

To be honest, the mellow natural atmosphere that Maca and the others could feel here was something they couldn't feel in the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts.

They followed Old Luck for a while, and when they had rounded a few more tree trunks, a small and tidy building appeared before them.

The building was not large, and it was clearly built for the use of the elves, and the highest point was only a head taller than Maca.

Luckily, this wasn't a building with an interior space, and Maca didn't need to go into any place where they had to bend down to squeeze in.

To be precise, it is a shrine made of stone carvings.

Around the shrine, the stone-paved ground seemed to have no sense of disobedience in this glade, and delicate grasses poked their heads out of the cracks in the stone slabs, forming a harmonious picture of natural and unnatural creations.

"What's that?"

Beside Maca, Luna asked softly, pointing to the statue enshrined in the shrine.

"I'm not sure," Maca shook her head slightly, "but the top one looks like ...... Mountain fairy? ”

As Maka said, the shrine contained three small but lifelike stone sculptures.

The taller statue was dressed in a dress sewn with flower petals, two pairs of thin wings, one large and one small, and a lovely wreath in its slightly unkempt hair.

No matter how you look at it, it's very similar to the current little fairy family.

At this time, the elf elder Rak suddenly spoke.

"That is Phili, one of the two good friends of our ancestors." "She's smart, sensitive, fair, and good and evil," said Rak softly in his old voice...... The fairy of the mountains and forests you are talking about is her descendant. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to another statue with respect.

The statue looked most human-like on the outside, except for the pointed ears on either side of its head, which were very different from humans. It was wearing a tight-fitting suit, a pointed hat on its head, and a willow flute was placed to its mouth, as if it were playing a refreshing song of the forest.

“…… And that one was Parker, another good friend of our ancestors. "He was brave, humorous, kind, and deeply loved the jungle and nature...... It is the ancestor of the leprechauns. ”

"Sensitive and fair? Humorous and kind? Maca contrasted these words with the little fairy and the little leprechaun, and couldn't help but shake her head secretly, "It's probably a beautified version, right?" ”

As he thought, Lark pointed more respectfully at the bottom statue, and even lowered his head slightly.

Maca saw that the statue depicted a creature with long ears and large eyes. If I have to say that there are any similarities with the elf clan, I'm afraid that's all there is to it.

Unlike the elves, the statue was neatly dressed, well-proportioned, handsome, holding a wine glass in one hand and a broom in the other, grinning as if singing, looking smart and full of fun.

"This is the ancestor of our elf clan, and 'Ral' is his name. He is industrious, he likes to think, he is curious about everything, he is willing to act to protect weak creatures, and he is willing to sing loudly to create laughter...... Most importantly, he is faithful to his oaths and promises and will not break them for the rest of his life. ”

Old Luck paused, and said as if full of longing: "Ral, Parker, and Philie, they often sing, play, and dance in the forest, sowing life for the sake of the beautiful nature!" ”

"Oh, you have a good ancestor." Maca chimed in.

But in fact, he had just figured out one thing now—regardless of whether the ancestors of the three races were really good friends, at least Maca thought it was still very possible.

Because in ancient times, these three races had a common hobby, and that was - teasing humans. As for now, the elf clan has become a house-elf, and there are finally only two of these three noisy races left.

"So, did you bring Luna here?" As Luna and Hermione watched curiously, Maca asked Old Luck again.

"Don't you know?" Old Luck glanced at Luna leisurely and said calmly, "Our ancestor Ral, like his two friends, deeply loved the great nature. And that human girl, she is closer to this nature than the other children......"

"And then?" Maca is a bit inexplicable.

"Venerable Ral would be very happy to see her coming." Old Luck repeated the phrase again, and Maca instantly remembered the centaurs, for they liked to be tricky when they talked.

But fortunately, the situation that Maca imagined that she couldn't ask no matter how she asked didn't come up.

“…… I think that His Excellency Lal will perform the miracle of life for the sake of this human girl. As he said this, old Lack's eyes sparkled with longing.

Maca subconsciously looked at the statue in the shrine, but she was a little skeptical. Not to mention that he was an atheist before, even if he was a wizard, he had never been in the habit of believing in any gods.

In the long history of shamans, there have been few gods and religions. Even if there were, for example, the Druids, which were all the rage in ancient times, believed in the truths that were hidden in nature.

And Old Rak's behavior of expecting miracles has obviously crossed the level of taking the ancestors as spiritual sustenance, and has embarked on the road of deifying the ancestors.

"However, it cannot be ruled out that the ancestors of the elves did leave some magic."

Maca stood aside and gestured towards the shrine and statue, but he didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

He put this somewhat mysterious matter aside for the time being, intending to reorganize his thoughts and think about how to convince the elf elder for a while.

First of all, he didn't plan to take the methods of the Giant Tribe and use them again. Because although Old Luck also has signs of believing in the ancestral gods, he is not as obsessed as the giants after all, and these elves are not stupid at all.

Secondly, this group of elves has a solid bloodline inheritance, and they can vaguely detect the truth and falsehood of the words, which is also not easy to fool.

Therefore, the breakthrough point may fall on today's unexpected character - Luna.

But before Maca could finish pondering, he suddenly felt a strange magic power fluctuation suddenly vibrate, startling him a lot.

This fluctuation is not aggressive, but as old Luck said, it seems to be full of vitality and vitality.

It's just that the source of the fluctuation can't be found at all, which makes Maca a little worried.

"Luna, Hermione, come to me—"

At the moment when the elf Lark suddenly crawled to the ground, Maca hurriedly took two steps and pulled the somewhat dazed Luna and Hermione to her side.

None of them could sense the magic, so they didn't notice anything unusual around them.
