Chapter 375: I Almost Believed It
The strange task released by the system was decisively ignored by Nangong Rong, anyway, it couldn't be completed without any punishment and there was no eye-catching reward, but if the boy really dared to try to do the task, he would definitely be greeted by Her Royal Highness the eldest princess immediately, and if he didn't get the benefit, he would risk being beaten into a pig's head, so he really didn't have much interest in trying.
Of course, Octavier is skeptical about this, she thinks that Nangong Rongnai is ostensibly refusing, but secretly secretly giving a thumbs up to the golden retriever, ready to wait until the two girls relax their vigilance because of the teenager's refusal to accept the task, and then find an opportunity to jump out at night and do a lot of [beep] things, the standard mouth is honest - there seems to be something wrong?
In short, the unreliable tasks released by the system caused by the undisciplined daily routine are still continuing, Nangong Rong can't help but feel very helpless, he really doesn't have that kind of idea, but the eldest princess doesn't believe anything, and the cheap sister is in all kinds of pit brothers, so in the end, he decisively left the two girls and slipped out, the reason is to breathe clean and pollution-free fresh air.
There were four guards guarding the door of the room, who were sent by the sharp-eared bigwigs to protect the young man, and when he saw Nangong Rong walk out of the door, he immediately separated one person to follow him.
"Where are you going, sir?"
The soldier seemed to ask Nangong Rong very casually, his face was full of a posture of preparing to talk, if the young man went out to do something unspeakable or unspeakable, then he would definitely feel that the soldier in front of him was a trouble and then kill people or something - this kind of royal road The soldier said that he was not worried, and the large amount of training he received was specifically to deal with similar situations, and the soldier was just testing Nangong Rong and then making a decision according to the other party's reaction.
If Octavier is here, I'm afraid that he will open his brain again, but fortunately, Nangong Rong, who has been labeled as a [natural stay] by the eldest princess, is not aware of these twists and turns at all, unless the young man is willing to stop what he is doing and concentrate his brain cells to run at full strength, it is possible to temporarily get rid of the natural stay attribute and become a smart person, but it is obvious that he is not doing this now.
"Ah, my hometown has serious air pollution in the city due to the development of mechanical technology, and it is rare to encounter a time when the air is fresh, so I plan to experience it here for a while. Nangong Rong also behaved very casually, because he really didn't think about some complicated things, "I want to go outside to breathe in the air and enjoy the scenery along the way, after all, looking at the forest from such a big tree is a rare experience for us." β
The boy came to the surface of the branch as he had said, but he did not take in the beauty of the forest below, and his attention was drawn to the various things on the surface of the branch.
In other words, the sunny part above the surface of the branch is the farmland of the elves, they have carefully cultivated a large number of edible crops on the thin branches that are taller than the second floor and the green leaves that are larger than people, and the branches as wide as the street are also planted with plants on both sides, but there is a road for people to walk in the middle; the elves have no habit of eating meat, so they have never raised animals, and there are some wild animals that are not afraid of people, and they are standing in place and curiously looking at Nangong Rong, a two-legged beast that is somewhat similar to the elves but not a little differentγ
Of course, there are more elves who are busy in the fields, and they are constantly casting spells to urge the creatures to grow and sturdy and then put them into space objects and take them away, and they are constantly repeating this kind of thing. There is no trace of leisurely cultivation in these pointy-eared bodies, but more like numb workers in a factory after a long period of mechanical work.
They are producing food, not only to feed the stomachs of the inhabitants of the tree of life, but also to feed the large number of refugees gathered around the tree, and it is not feasible to wait for the crops to grow on their own, as they normally do. Fortunately, the pointed ears seem to be very good at life spells, and they can produce fruits and grains in batches like factory-made products, otherwise they may not be able to feed so many people.
The side effect of this is probably only that the consumption of the tree of life is too great, after all, the energy and materials required for the growth of crops are all provided by the big tree, and if you don't replenish the leyline energy in time, you will definitely die in the end - but there is nothing to worry about, how can this place that houses refugees be on the front line close to the mountain range, it is not far from the leyline node of the core base of the elven race, and it is not a problem to replenish it at all.
"I heard that a new batch of refugees will be resettled in a few days, and everyone is now busy producing food in preparation for that. The soldier explained very indifferently behind Nangong Rong, it was obvious that he was used to this kind of thing, "I heard that the Council of Elders has begun to discuss whether to build another Tree of Life nearby, but in my opinion, it should be unlikely. β
Building a sub-base requires a lot of resources, manpower, and time, and unless the elves postpone preparations for a general assault on the front line, they will certainly not have the heart to build a new tree of life.
Nangong Rong nodded lightly, not knowing which words the soldier said, and said in a very emotional tone: "Yes, I feel that you guys are also quite hard." Anyway, haven't you ever thought of creating a special place in the forest to grow crops?"
"Ahh
Very good, this answer is very elf!" The boy could only shrug his shoulders speechlessly, and was about to change the subject, when a huge black shadow suddenly flew from the sky, and landed straight towards the Tree of Life.
It is a strange creature about the size of Octavier's dragon mount, with the wings of an eagle and the body of a tiger, with a bulging lower abdomen like a ball, and two snake heads, like a cyborg that has been spliced together by a mad scientist from various animal fragments, the kind that can be directly filmed in a movie without special effects.
"Chimera?"
The young man, who remembered many legends related to the elves, pointed to the unknown creatures in the sky and asked the soldier, but he received a negative answer.
"What is that, I've never heard of that word. As for that guy in the sky, he is a magic pet made by spells, and he is responsible for transporting things that can't be transported with teleportation arrays. β
The boy originally thought that the teleportation array was omnipotent, and that no matter people or things, it could accurately teleport over long distances, so the elves did not design and make a means of transportation, but used chocobo as a mount, but now the soldier in front of him told him that there were some things that the teleportation array could not do? Nangong Rong couldn't help but feel very curious, and when he was about to continue to ask, he found that the creature that was suspected to be a Chimera had landed on the ground.
Then it lowered its head and opened its mouth to bite deep into the epidermis of the root of the tree with its teeth, and its swollen lower abdomen immediately trembled violently, as if it was gasping for breath, and then deflated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What the hell, if this thing is extracting the internal energy of the Tree of Life, its stomach should bulge, how can it be deflated? Just when Nangong Rong was puzzled, a faint emerald green light suddenly bloomed on the surface of the entire tree, and it seemed that something called vitality had entered its body.
The boy understood that what could not be transported through the teleportation array was energy, and this Chimera had come to replenish the leyline energy of the Tree of Life, probably in preparation for accommodating more refugees in a few days - but big brother, could you please change the way to replenish it a little more reliable, now this appearance will only be reminiscent of a hateful creature called a mosquito, hey!
"Huh?" Suddenly, Nangong Rong felt as if he had sensed something in the air that made him feel uncomfortable, but when he came back to his senses and looked carefully, he didn't find anything, "Is it an illusion?"
"What are you talking about, sir?"
The young man who was heard muttering by the soldier next to him could only immediately give an embarrassed but polite smile: "It's nothing, don't care." β
The Chimera, who had replenished the energy of the tree, flew away quickly, and not a single spirit showed curiosity about it from beginning to end, as if a human had seen a bus passing by in the city, and seemed very indifferent;
Nangong Rong also immediately threw the discomfort he had just felt out of the clouds, and refocused his attention on the nearby flowers and plants and small animals.
Why don't you pick up a squirrel before you go back?
Looking at the few furry cute creatures that ran to his feet and pulled his pants to ask for food, Nangong Rong made a fairly reliable decision.
Half an hour passed, and Octavir appeared on the surface of the branch, too, with a Guards soldier. The eldest princess came to find Nangong Rong, because this kid said that he was going to go for a walk outside to breathe, but he never came back, and the girl said it was very strange.
However, Octavier only saw Nangong Rong for the first time, and her whole person became embarrassed on the spot, and the thick black lines covered her head gorgeously, and she couldn't even wave it.
"I said, what are you doing here?"
Nangong Rong, who was squatting on the ground and busy, immediately turned his head to look at the familiar girl's voice when he heard it, and nodded at the eldest princess and said, "Ah, Tavier, you're here." β
"Tavier, you're here - a big-headed ghost, I didn't come back for so long, I thought you were hooked by a beautiful girl of the elf clan, and you didn't even care about everything around you!" However, in a city full of handsome guys and beauties, instead of flirting with girls and feeding here, what kind of strange neural circuits do you have!?"
At this moment, there are not only a few bold squirrels around Nangong Rong, but also many cats, dogs, and colorful birds, all of which are looking at the young man waiting for feeding.
"Oh, don't you think these little things are really cute?" Nangong Rong, who even had a colorful parrot standing above his head, said that he was an animal trainer, and some people probably believed it, he raised his hand and pressed it twice against the eldest princess to signal the girl not to be excited, and at the same time took out a handful of unknown objects and put them in front of the animals, so that the group of little guys worked hard, "Look, isn't that the case?"
"It was lovely and lovely. "The parrots are also flapping their wings to join in the fun.
Octavir watched as a squirrel snatched the unknown food from Nangong Rong's hand and then ran to the young man's shoulder and began to eat it slowly, and the anger in his heart quickly dissipated. It is reasonable that the eldest princess is very envious that Nangong Rong is so close to the small animals, you must know that she has never enjoyed this kind of treatment when she fed the squirrels.
Seeing that his menacing appearance made the animals vigilant, Octavier hurriedly withdrew his anger and slowly walked to Nangong Rong and squatted down, which did not startle the animals away, and also made the eldest princess breathe a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "Now, what method did you use to attract so many animals around?"
"Well, of course, it's the easiest and most practical way to feed. Nangong Rong said that he took out a square cardboard box from the space item he bought cheaply-a small cloth bag the size of a palm, with a hard texture and a trademark and other patterns printed on the surface, which was the packaging box of a certain commodity.
Her Royal Highness the eldest princess only glanced at the whole person, and immediately became messy in the wind, and her tone when she looked at the text on the surface of the packaging box was also full of deep pain: "Universal pet biscuits, whether your master is a dog, a cat or a bird, will like this nutritious, crispy and delicious biscuit, suitable for feeding the vast majority of warm-blooded pets?
"I'm going to say that I accidentally read the wrong biscuits when I bought them in the supermarket, do you believe me?"
This is really a strange reason, but if you think about it carefully, it may be possible, Octavier also once took the supermarket in Lin Weiyin's hometown, and the goods in it are so rich that they will indeed make people picky, and the eldest princess herself has made a similar mistake.
"Don't listen to this kid. The golden retriever suddenly opened his mouth and dismantled the young man's platform without hesitation, "He simply bought a few boxes of pet biscuits on purpose, saying that he would use them as bait when hunting in the future." β
"Is this what it looks like, I almost believed it just now!"
Sneering and avoiding the eldest princess's angry gaze and turning his gaze to the cute things in front of him, Nangong Rong very simply stuffed the packaging box into the girl's hand: "What, don't you want to try to feed them?"
Octavir was then successfully distracted by the teenager.
