Chapter 17: The Elven Secret Translator
When it came to the elven kingdom, a hint of fanaticism flashed in the eyes of this elf named Tabby, but under the painful look, this fanaticism was well concealed.
"Elven Kingdom! It is the kingdom of His Majesty Chinchilla, the supreme lord, the master of the land where the sun shines, and the only king of the entire continent. ”
After a piece of nonsense, nothing substantive is missing.
"I'm asking you, how big is the Elven Kingdom? And how many people the country has! ”
The old tabby spirit blushed, and it took a while to reply: "I don't know!" ”
This answer made Ye Jinyu stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such an answer.
"Don't know? Really don't know or fake don't know? ”
Ye Jinyu asked suspiciously, and threateningly stretched the barrel of the gun to the wound at the base of the elf's thigh.
Seeing that the black-haired monkey was about to torture himself again, the elf was anxious and hurriedly said:
"I really don't know, from our tabby tribe to Berman City, the main city of the Green Elf Forest, it takes two days and one night to ride the fastest deer all the way without stopping; It is said that it takes up to three months to get from Birman City to Elven King's City. Aside from tribal leaders and travelers, few elves wander around; I'm just a warrior in the tribe, and there's no need to go far away; At the farthest, I have only followed the tribal elders to Berman City, so I don't know how big the elven kingdom is, and I don't know how many elves there are in the elven kingdom. ”
Although the tabby elf said that he didn't know anything, there was still a lot of information in his words.
The first one, the territory controlled by the elves is very large, and the deer Ye Jinyu saw it just now, it is very miraculous, and it is only faster than the horses when it runs; If this deer is going to run for three months, well...... Ye Jinyu didn't know how far the deer would run in three months. It's big anyway.
The second is that the information is very backward, just like in ancient China, ordinary people do not go out of the county in their lives, and they go to places dozens of miles away from the door. Information is obtained almost by word of mouth; It is estimated that it will take a long time for a message to spread.
In addition, the technology of the elves is not developed, first of all, it can be seen from the fact that they have to rely on four-legged vehicles to go out, and they do not have the speed to carry heavy vehicles. The degree of development of transportation technology limits the size of the territory that a regime can control, just like Mongolia in the history of the earth, the powerful empire fell apart, aside from other things, the underdevelopment of transportation is definitely an important reason, imagine that if there were trains and planes during the Mongolian period, the army could come day and night, and it would definitely be able to slow down the speed of decomposition. From this factor, it can be inferred that either the upper echelons of the elven kingdom have some special means, or they use very loose management, such as the colonial rule of the British, or simply the feudal tribal alliance type of government in ancient China. But either way, the connection within the elven kingdom will not be too close.
It's just the same that the means of transportation are not developed, and their weapons are also very backward, at least the weapons that Ye Jinyu sees now are not advanced, this elf he uses a bow and arrow, although it is very exquisite and powerful, but it still can't change the fact that it is just a backward weapon.
Of course, this is just a conclusion that Ye Jinyu has speculated based on his own experience on the earth, and it is not excluded that elves have a very developed level of black technology or magic, after all, the aura here is so abundant, it is normal to make some similar cultivation exercises or something; Maybe this tabby elf is just a hillbilly with little knowledge, so he just doesn't know.
Thinking of this, Ye Jinyu asked one more question:
"Do you elves have spellcasters?"
"Spellcaster?" Looking at the reaction of the elves, it seems that they are unaware of the existence of such creatures; Ye Jinyu could only ask in a different way.
"I see your eyes lit up just now, did you practice some exercises, secret methods, or something?"
The elf still looked at him with a confused expression, clearly not understanding what he meant. Ye Jinyu couldn't do it, and asked again:
"Why do your eyes shine?"
This time the tabby elf finally responded: "This is the talent of our green elves; Each elven race will have unique talents. ”
Ye Jinyu knew a new word, and a new question arose: "Talent? Do you just need talent? Don't you need to study and practice? ”
When the elves heard this, they became arrogant again, and said: "Our elves are the darlings of nature, from birth, the elves will be baptized by the World Tree, and the baptized elves will continue to grow stronger with age!" ”
When Ye Jinyu heard this, he seemed to understand a little, it seems that this elf race has been nourished by the vitality of heaven and earth since he was a child, and the older he gets, the more aura he passively absorbs; So it naturally became stronger, and there was no need to practice at all.
"What's the matter with that guy lying on the ground over there? Why are they so afraid of you? "Actually, Ye Jinyu wanted to ask the rainbow-haired human if he could absorb aura to strengthen himself.
Speaking of rainbow-haired humans, a trace of contempt flashed in the elf's eyes, and it seemed that the pride of being an elf had returned to him, and when he was about to habitually belittle a few words, he happened to see the black-haired guy frowning, and when the words came to his lips, he changed his words:
"Foolish...... The monkey clan is a discarded thing of nature, they are not blessed by the World Tree, and they will not be able to become strong in their lives; They are inferior creatures and can only be enslaved by noble elves. ”
Although the elves had tried not to say those insulting words, Ye Jinyu, who didn't expect that he would become an inferior creature as soon as he crossed over, was still disgusted. Your sister, you are an inferior creature, and your whole family is an inferior creature. I wanted to give the elf's wound again, but seeing that he was so pale that he was about to die at any time, Ye Jinyu endured it.
However, although the elf's words were not listened to, they revealed an important information, that is, the rainbow-haired humans did not know whether it was because of physiological structure problems or some other reason; It seems that the elves can't use the World Tree to unlock the talent of absorbing aura; Just as a talisman that has not been stamped with a sigil cannot work, the Rainbow Man cannot absorb or can only inefficiently receive the nourishment of the aura.
Just like the characters in the game add points, elves are one year old and three measurements plus ten points, while humans can only add one point when they are one year old; The number of points added by human beings in the process of growing up is far inferior to that of elves, and the strength of adulthood is naturally far inferior to that of elves.
Of course, this is just Ye Jinyu's speculation, and the facts are still to be discovered by Ye Jinyu. Still, there was a question he didn't understand.
"Why are those rainbow people afraid of you, should you be afraid of elves just because they are not as strong as elves? Also, why did you call me a fugitive slave just now? ”
"All inferior races are slaves of the great elves!" The elves spoke spiritually, but they were starting to run out of breath.
His blood was still flowing slowly, and it looked like he was about to go into shock if something was not done. Speaking of which, the vitality of this elf is really tenacious, if it is an ordinary person who has three holes in his body and chats with people while bleeding, he is afraid that he will die of blood long ago.
The elves were still barely holding on: "Some inferior races do not submit to the noble elves and try in vain to challenge the rule of the noble elves!" After being suppressed, he fled to the mountains......"
was listening attentively, Ye Jinyu suddenly heard the sound of Suo Suo from the bushes next to him, and turned his head to look; I saw that the rainbow hairs that had escaped just now had returned, and they were trying to rescue the golden retriever.
Seeing the black-haired guy Ye Jinyu looking over, they shrank back in fright, but they didn't run away and hide directly when they heard the sound of the elf's deer hooves; It seems that Boss Ye's deterrent power is far worse than that of elves; In any case, the black-haired guy is not much different from them except for the black coat color; It's not like an elf, it's completely alien.
Compared to the elves, these rainbow people should be no threat to themselves; But Ye Jinyu doesn't understand the language of these people, so he doesn't know how to communicate with them; According to the elves, these rainbow people don't have the natural powers of the green elves, and they can't understand Boss Ye's words. Looking at the elves, and then at the rainbow people, Ye Jinyu wondered if he could use the talent of the elves to communicate with the people of this world.
So Ye Jinyu shouted at those with rainbow-colored hair: "Hello! ”
The black-haired man spoke suddenly, and frightened those people a few steps back, and for a while, he didn't see the black-haired man move; A few people watched the older leader take a few steps forward and said something to Ye Jinyu.
Ye Jinyu still didn't understand, it seemed that the talent of the elf did not give Ye Jinyu the possibility of communication with the rainbow man.
Ye Jinyu could only turn his head to look at the elf again and asked, "Can you understand their words?" ”
After asking, he didn't get an answer from the elf, and after a closer look, he found that the elf's eyes had begun to roll white.
People have fainted, and naturally they can't maintain their natal powers, save or not? According to Ye Jinyu's temperament, this elf is dead when he dies, and it is about him; But if he dies like this, he will lose such a translator, and he will not be able to communicate with those rainbow natives. Next time, I don't know if I can catch another elf who knows how to connect with spirits.
Forget it, let's save it first. He took out a rejuvenation talisman from his pocket, and his mana moved. A green streamer of light entered the elf's body, and the wounds on the elf's body began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye; I don't know if it is affected by the abundant aura in the local area, or if the elf itself is abnormally talented, and the recovery speed of the wounds on its body is even faster than in the Datang time and space.
Seeing that it was about to be fully healed, Ye Jinyu hurriedly interrupted the mana output.
You can't cure all the elves, if he regains his strength and rebels, it's still troublesome!
I have to say that the vitality of the elf is really tenacious, and it is only half the effect of the rejuvenation talisman; The elf, who had already rolled his eyes, came back to life in minutes.
After waking up, he looked around, then looked at Ye Jinyu and asked puzzledly, "You saved me?" ”
Ye Jinyu stared at him vigilantly and said, "Yes, I see that you are still a little useful." ”
