In this world, there is such a legend.

When the darkness spreads over the earth, when the world falls into despair, a light falls from the sky, and the spirit is born, bringing the dawn of light. They are the weapons that stop the black, the hope of finding salvation.

But they are not complete. In order to test the world, God drained half of the souls of the elves to test mortals, so that mortals could find their own future.

Therefore, whenever the elves walk at the forefront of black, they will always exhaust their lives and cannot return to their hometowns.

It is said that only by finding the 'Flower of Spiri', which represents hope, hidden in the black desperate realm, can the gods be satisfied, the soul of the elf can be restored to wholeness, and the future can truly be brought to the redeemer......

……

"So...... Why are elves flawed? Why do you fall into a magical chaos when you consume too much mana, resulting in death? ”

After listening to this 'legend' of Angelis, Jia Baili was not moved at all, but asked.

Angelis was silent.

After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "You come with me." ”

With that, she stood up, gestured to the three of them, walked out of the big house, and led the three of them to the back of the house.

Ten minutes or so from university, they came to the depths of the forest, where there was a small pool with rippling blue waves and crystal clear bottoms.

This small pool is not large, only about five meters in diameter, and there is a trace of white magic flowing above it, which disappears from time to time.

"This is where the elves are born, and we call them the Fountain of Life," said Angelis. ”

"It's so rich in divine magic." Jia Baili squatted down by the pool, holding a little spring water in both hands, and was about to drink it.

Cen Ying hurriedly stopped it and said, "Jia Baili, don't drink indiscriminately, there is more than divine magic in this spring. ”

"Huh?" Jia Baili was stunned for a moment, let the water flow down from her fingers, looked at Cen Ying, and asked, "Then what else?" ”

"Hmm......" Cen Ying squatted beside Jia Baili, stretched out his hand and tapped the pool surface, felt it slightly, and said: "There is a very familiar energy fluctuation in it, and the spring water seems to have attributes similar to the energy attributes in my body......"

There was indeed a similar feeling in the spring water, just like the feeling when Xiao Zi broke out of her shell, but ...... I always feel like something is missing.

Cen Ying pondered for a moment, put this doubt behind him, and looked up at Angelis, "If it's not bad, there should be a property in this spring that can decompose and absorb energy, right?" ”

"That's right." Angelis nodded and said, "That's true, the energy in the fountain of life is very strange, not only can it create elves, but it also contains a trait that decomposes and absorbs energy, which is judged by the research of elves when they are fighting, and it is very effective on the dark magic of monsters." ”

She sighed suddenly, "I couldn't see any hope at the beginning, and the Great Sage just spent a lot of time and energy extracting a little bit of decomposition and absorbing trait energy, and put it into the strongest machine he created, the Heart of Hope, to send out the most talented, most powerful, and strongest elf Filth...... It's Xiao Zi. ”

About this, Cen Ying and the others learned from Xiao Zi's mouth, but Xiao Zi was originally called Fils, which is a nice name.

Angelis smiled and said, "If you drink it, you'll be fine, because the water after leaving the Fountain of Life only contains the divine magic that Miss Jia Baili said, and the property of decomposing and absorbing energy has disappeared." The fountain of life water is delicious, and I use the fountain of life to cook my meals, so it's even more delicious. ”

Jia Baili's eyes lit up, "Really? ”

"Of course." Angelis nodded, a little smug.

Hearing Angelis's words, Cen Ying threw away the inexplicable sense of worry in her heart.

It seems that he is not too incompetent, but the other party has opened a hanging.

So my cooking skills should still be very good, if I get some fountain of life......

Cen Ying was confident that she would be able to make a better meal than Angel and shut up an angel's mouth.

Well...... Do you want to ask Angel if she wants to go back a little?

Just as she was thinking like this, Jia Baili had already spoken-

"Well, Angelis, can you bring some spring water back when we get back?"

"Of course, it's okay to bring a little back, even if you take it all away." Angelis smiled inexplicably.

Cen Ying felt that there seemed to be a strong sadness in Angels' tone, and he hurriedly stopped Jia Baili, who was surprised, from speaking, and changed the subject: "Can you ask, the birth process of the elf?" ”

"Of course you can, I'll know everything."

It wasn't Angeles who answered, but a strange, old-fashioned voice that suddenly sounded.

The four people present turned their heads and saw an old man with a wrinkled face and a long white beard, wearing a wide white robe, like a wise man in various stories.

Seeing the four of them looking at him, the old man showed a kind and gentle smile, "Hello, guests from afar, I am the Great Sage, as for the name...... I'm sorry I forgot, but welcome to a world on the verge of destruction. ”

"Hello Great Sage." Angelis bowed slightly to the Great Sage, and then asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"It's okay, I'll just come over and have a look." The Great Sage waved his hand at Angelis, and then said to Cen Ying and the others, "Speaking of the birth of the elven race, it probably started with the discovery of the Fountain of Life a hundred years ago. ”

Cen Ying and the three of them didn't speak, quietly listening to the great sage tell the story-

"At that time, because most of the creatures on the earth suddenly changed, causing the surviving races to survive all over the world, while fleeing, a group of people found a forest, that is, the elven forest where we are, and they found that as long as they stayed here, the monsters would not come in, and they would live in it for a long time......"

The story, presumably, is that the news gradually spread around the world, causing most of the survivors to migrate towards the Elven Forest, which is known as the "Great Migration on the Eve of the Counterattack".

When most of the humans and other intelligent races migrated here and lived nearby, various chaotic events led to infighting, when a man escaped from the enemy pursuit and walked into the center of the forest, found the Fountain of Life, and in grief, he threw a plant that accompanied the monster into the Fountain of Life to vent, resulting in the dramatic birth of the first elf.

The first elf was not in infant form, but directly in the adult form of a 16-year-old, and the first thing the elf saw was that person, so they recognized him as their parent.

Suddenly given this opportunity, that man used the elves' extraordinary abilities to rule this chaotic survivor gathering place with iron and blood, and then counterattacked the monsters and reclaimed a large area of land.

Just when the survivors thought that the end of the apocalypse was over, the monsters that could have been injured and killed by high-tech weapons, as if they had been stimulants, suddenly mutated and became invulnerable, and only the magic of the elves could cause damage to them.

However, it is clear that one elf cannot cope with the countless monsters, and the survivors have to use a little recovery technology to divide the land around the Elven Forest and lift it into the air.

The Floating Islands were formed.

At this time, that person also discovered the secret of the elves, as long as the plant was put into the fountain of life at a certain time, the elves could be born, and they could be "mass-produced" to be used against monsters......

……

This person is the old man who calls himself the "Great Sage" in front of him.

PS: I found that some people are discussing the gender of the elves, well, this involves why the elves were born from the fountain of life, and how the fountain of life appeared.
