Chapter 1000: Tanuki?
Edith's words prove that Sumi's experiment was "illegal" in that era. Roddy can't help but think of the monsters in many science fiction movies that are made by blind experiments regardless of political orders... But what Sumi made was not a monster, I am afraid that it was something that he didn't even think of himself.
"Could it be that such a transformed guy is a demon?" Roddy suddenly had a strange thought: "Could it be that the demon was created by a high elf?
"There is not much evidence, and it may be difficult to confirm this speculation. ”
Edith pointed to the top of her head, "The hardest thing for me to understand is why the gods are once again affecting the inside of the plane. As you said, Prime Minister, the Luna cult easily created the 'Divine Domain', and Barty also created such a thing as the 'Light of Destruction', and even you yourself received the help of the gods through sacrifices..."
As a demigod, the Grand Arcanist had a solemn face: "Throughout history, this is too abnormal. ”
Roddy carefully recalls the "history" he experienced in the game and finds that he has never heard of any "miracles" from beginning to end. So what exactly is affecting the world, is it...
He suddenly realized that his experience with Kardashian in the "Time and Space Prison" seemed to be the key to changing all this. Because Corseus was more than just a successful businessman on Earth. As a god, even if he is already an ordinary person, after developing a quantum computer, it is impossible to say whether he can affect the other gods above his head...
As he pondered, Roddy noticed a prompt pop up in the "Quest Bar", and the previous "Fog of History" quest that was displayed as "green" was displayed as complete - as a reward for the mission, Roddy received the "Energy Drain" skill.
He frowned and opened the skill description to take a look, and suddenly understood:
【Energy Devouring】
Use: Associated with the energy obtained by the Magic Crystal, the energy of the Magic Crystal is shared, which can be used to replenish mana and obtain the "Sanity Interference" status at the same time.
Obviously, this is the main reason why the group of wood elves holding magic crystals seem to have "infinite magic power", and Luo Di didn't expect the system to teach this skill directly to himself.
He frowned and looked at the words "sanity interference", which should be what Edith said about the negative effects.
Now that he doesn't have a magic crystal at hand, Roddy can't try it. He glanced left and right, the contents of the village had almost been emptied, and according to the plan, everyone would leave here with the magic tower.
He began to walk back with Edith. At this time, Roddy is no longer the captain of the scout team, and there are too many things for him to worry about. As the prime minister, there are at least a team of staff to help, but on the side of the dragon clan, they can only participate in the discussion and research themselves.
Thinking that the five dragons had been deposed as a result, Roddy was tormented by how to explain to these lords. He went to the magic tower and checked the information on the map bar one last time, but was about to step up the steps, but suddenly froze in place.
"What's wrong?"
"There's a monster nearby, it stands to reason... It shouldn't be. ”
Edith looked at Roddy and suddenly turned her head and looked over. However, the forests around the village were relatively lush, and all she could see was the chaotic and complex trees - as a spirit body, she couldn't cast spells herself, so she used the magic tower to conduct a spell reconnaissance.
As the spell rippled through the air, she finally realized what Roddy was looking at: in the trees at the end of her vision, a figure was crawling slowly...
"What is this—what?"
Edith's eyes widened, because the target was three or four hundred meters away, and there were various trees blocking it, and the naked eye could only see the general outline moving slowly. However, Roddy's face gradually became serious: "Go over and take a look." ”
At this time, no one dared to take anything in the Silent Forest lightly. Roddy didn't even dare to let the dragons come out to contact these guys, so he simply let Edith manipulate the magic tower to float and slowly approach the target from above.
Roddy looked down at the base of the tower, and when the tower was suspended fifty meters away from the target, he and Edith had already noticed... The "Warcraft" in his judgment turned out to be a living wood elf!
It's just that at the moment, this wood elf is obviously not normal, and Roddy can recognize her as a wood elf woman, but the problem is that not only is the other party not wearing clothes, but also crawling naked in the snow.
She is like some kind of herbivore, crawling on the snow-covered ground as she plows the dirt with her hands, digging out roots or grass stalks from the ground and eating them. Roddy was able to spot her because he toggled several of his tracking techniques on the map bar - but at the moment, the Wood Elf was not marked as a "demon" or a "wood elf" on the map, but a "monster" of no lower rank.
Luo Di was just curious about why there were more than twenty-level Warcraft here, so he took a second look, but he didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing.
"It's... What's going on?"
Edith hadn't heard of this either. Her apparition appeared beside Roddy, and the two of them looked down in mid-air at the mud-stained wood elf.
"It's not like a decoy... There was nothing else around. ”
Roddy looked left and right, and suddenly said, "Put some food from above and try it." ”
In order to satisfy the recipes of the various dragons, Edith stored enough food to eat for many years, so she quickly used spells to slowly place various foods from the air on the ground with spells.
The Wood Elf was digging out the roots of the tree with both hands and chewing, and was startled when she heard the movement, and instantly made an attack gesture - this time, both Roddy and Edith saw that there were many bone spurs on her body, which was no different from the Wood Elf, and at the same time, her fingertips also stretched out sharp claws when she made a threatening sound.
However, the Wood Elf was obviously not of high intelligence, and she only saw the food that fell on the ground, but she did not notice the magic tower above. After glancing at the vegetables and meat for a few moments, she crawled over and began to sniff...
She was naked, but she didn't have that seductive curve. Because the chest and buttocks that originally stored fat are thin, there are not a few taels of flesh left, and the limbs are only the outline of bones except for muscles, which looks like a hungry stray dog on the side of the road, which is very pitiful.
She tossed the dried ham and chicken aside, and the wood elf was soon devouring the watery vegetables. Roddy's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he raised his hand and threw an elemental summoning stone down, and the summoned earth elemental climbed up from the ground. Under Roddy's control, she approached the wood elf—but she ate the fragrance of the incense, and didn't even look at the earth elemental, but only turned her body as it approached, keeping a face-facing posture.
"This posture and characteristics seem to be like a kind of magical beast..."As soon as Roddy finished speaking, the earth elemental that had just approached a distance of five meters was knocked down by the burst of the wood elf, and her claws frantically tore at the earth elemental, and soon dismantled the elemental creature into a piece of slag.
"Brick Tanuk?"
Edith suddenly said the scientific name, and Roddy was stunned for a moment, because in his system display, the name identified on the top of the head of this wood elf was "Brick Tanuk"...
