Chapter 298: Half-Elf
It turns out that the forest elves are indeed creatures that are not good at lying, even if they are the so-called elf endorsements, after being fooled by Xiwei, they almost explained everything that could be explained.
However, considering that the elves do not communicate with humans except for the necessary trade, it is to be expected that their conversation skills are not high.
All in all, this incident is that in the forest where they live, there has been a change that cannot be ignored.
Large areas of vegetation begin to crystallize abnormally, and herbivores will naturally move away from those areas when they run out of edible plants, as do carnivores that feed on herbivores.
As the crystallization area expanded, the number of animals and insects in other parts of the forest began to increase dramatically, and many plants were eaten like locusts and only had their branches left, and this trend is expanding with the increase of herbivores.
The larger the crystallization area, the greater the density of animals in other areas, and the corresponding increase in the irreparable damage to the forest. As long as the crystallization does not stop, this vicious cycle will continue until the entire southern forest, the home of the forest elves, is completely destroyed.
To make matters worse, if the average forest elf stays in the crystallized forest area for too long, their bodies will gradually begin to crystallize. This caused the forest elves' investigation to be dealt a major blow, and even stopped halfway through.
For the forest elves, this has reached the point where it is a matter of life and death, and even with their dislike of communicating with humans, they have to send messengers to invite the strongest of the human beings to help.
After sending the little leprechaun to the guest room to rest in the two elves who had been stunned, Sivi walked slowly in the direction of the bonfire party with a thoughtful expression.
"I hate it so much~"
Fett suddenly emerged from behind Sivi, sticking out his tongue like a real ghost, with two small dark blue ghost fires. Said in an eerie tone.
"What are you playing again......" Sivi, who was interrupted in thought, gave the girl an angry look.
"Because you've been used to my sudden appearance lately, I can't scare you at all and feel so lonely~"
The ghost girl put away the two ghost fires, and her pale blue cheeks, which were originally a little miserable, also returned to their round pearl color as before: "So you're going to help?" ”
"Hmm. Think about it a little more. ”
Sivi scratched his head in annoyance: "Those two elves are vague about the specific situation, and I suspect that they have not personally visited the forest area of Crystallization. ”
"As the spokesperson of the Venerable Elves, how could they possibly go to such a dangerous place."
The ghost girl's tone revealed a sense of familiarity with the elves: "Generally speaking, the only people in the forest elves who carry out dangerous tasks are those forest patrols. But maybe the Luna Guardian will also intervene this time, after all, it's an incident related to the Moon Tree. ”
Although each forest elf can be considered half a magician, they also have a profession unique to their race. One of the most common. It is a forest patrol with a similar function to the human city guard, responsible for patrolling the jungle and protecting the safety of the tribe.
In addition, in addition to the War Elder and the Great Elder, the strongest and most mysterious class among the elves is the Moon Guardian. They live near the Moon Tree, and the only thing they have to do is pray to the Moon of Tranquility and keep the Elven Sacred Tree Moon Tree safe.
This time the incident was directed at the forest itself. In other words, it's also possible that the Moon Tree will be involved, so it's not impossible for the Luna to protect those mysterious creatures to make a move.
"Speaking of which, I've always been curious about one thing."
Seeing that the ghost girl seemed to know a lot about the forest elves, Xiwei suddenly asked the question that had been bothering him: "The forest elves are all born from the moon tree, and they have no gender. They are also incapable of reproduction...... So, how did the so-called half-elves come about? I've looked up a lot of ancient books about elves, but there's no clear record of this. ”
In addition, what Xiwei was most puzzled about was related to the piece of equipment he had in hand.
A long time ago, he acquired a treasure-level piece of equipment called the Moon Branch. In fact, until now, the powerful attributes of this equipment have allowed it to rank among the best in Sivi's collection.
But the problem is that the full name of this piece of equipment is 'Elven Princess's Moon Tree Branch'.
There is no distinction between men and women in the elven race, and as far as Xiwei knows, the highest status among the forest elves is the Great Elder, followed by the Moon Loft composed of twelve elders, and there are no words related to princesses at all.
So, who is the 'Moon Princess Elquite' mentioned in the remarks on this piece of equipment?
"The matter of the half-elves, it is indeed difficult for ordinary humans to know the inside story of the Dao." Fett didn't disappoint Sivi, she nodded with a clear face: "I did hear a friend say it before I was alive - well, I can't remember which friend exactly, but someone did say that." In the Age of Mythology, the elves were on the verge of extinction under the attack of the Abyss Demons because of the slow birth rate of their clansmen and the low number of races. At this time, a great alchemist in the elven clan concealed the moon god guard, secretly stole a moon branch, and through the study of that branch, he created a special 'seed'. ”
"Seeds?" Sivi asked curiously, "Could it be that the plants that grow can give birth to half-spirits?" ”
As he spoke, the image of the cultivator in Dragon Ball Z came to Sivi's mind.
"No, if it's really such a simple item, I'm afraid that the half-elf won't be a secret thing for the elf clan." The Ghost Maiden shook her head and continued, "That kind of 'seed' can only grow normally if it is planted on a female humanoid creature, and judging by its appearance, it is called pregnancy. And the last thing they gave birth to was a creature with a certain talent for elven magic, mixed with other bloodlines, and with reproductive functions - half-elves. ”
Listening to the deliberately created eerie feeling in the ghost girl's words, the cognitive image of the half-elf in Xiwei's mind suddenly changed from a cultivator to a heteromorphic face-hugging insect......
"The elves of the Age of Mythology are so heavy-mouthed......" After trying to dispel the image in his mind, Sivi couldn't help but sigh.
It's no wonder that the elves don't like half-elves, and it's no wonder that there is almost no account of the birth of half-elves in the classics...... No race, you don't like that kind of freaky creature. Although they themselves are innocent......
By the time Sivi found out that his conversation with Fett had unconsciously deviated from the theme of whether or not to help the elves in the first place, it was already after arriving at the barbecue banquet venue. (To be continued.) )
