Chapter 378: The Guide
"Can you take me with you to the Shadow Clan?", after meeting the matriarch, Al made his request directly.
When facing the matriarch, he tried to be as open and honest as possible, rather than engaging in some intrigue and temptation.
"This ......," the matriarch looked embarrassed.
"We'll do our best to meet your request, but you're human, and you're probably going to cause some trouble there. ”
Al has long thought about this, the dark elf clan has just fought a big war with humans, and has suffered heavy losses and sacrificed a lot of clansmen, except for the moonlight clan, it is normal for other dark elves to have resentment towards humans.
"I'll just say it here, the patriarch should also be suspicious of the Shadow Clan, so he will deliberately hide the news of the successful cultivation of the fluorescent wheat, right?"
"Similarly, I have some doubts about the Shadow Clan, and I also have some doubts in my mind that must be verified on the spot before they can be solved. ”
"Please think of a way. ”。 Al said sincerely.
"Looks like the nightingale has already told you. A sad look appeared on the matriarch's face, she stood up, looked at the flickering light outside the window, and suddenly said after a while.
"Mr. El, do you still insist that there are traitors among our dark elves?"
"Yes or no, didn't the patriarch have already made up his mind? Al replied in a respectful voice.
The matriarch sighed, as soft as the fragile cold light by the river, but as solemn as the cold rocks underneath.
"I hope not, but I can't ignore the possibility. After a few moments, the matriarch finally replied.
"Mr. Al, get ready, and we'll be on our way tomorrow. ”
...... The members of the matriarch and her party were very simple, except for the human El , there were only a few elders accompanying them. To Al's surprise, Nightingale and Pandan also followed, adding up to only ten people.
However, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs. Among the less than ten people, there is the eldest elder in the Moonlight Clan, who is highly respected and can make decisions on the spot when the patriarch is not there.
Two of them are experts in plant cultivation, and after Al has been trained in the past few days, they have very good experience in cultivating fluorescent wheat.
There are also a few people who have traveled thousands of miles and know thousands of miles, and have certain experience in identifying, selecting, and collecting phosphate rock. They hope to be able to remember and mark several phosphate rock veins on the road.
There is also one, and the most crucial one, who is responsible for leading the way.
Al was still a little faintly uneasy, and he quietly asked the matriarch, "Patriarch, is it a little inappropriate to bring only such a few people? There are also nightingales and pandan grass, so you don't have to participate, right?"
"It's okay, Mr. Al. The matriarch comforted him: "I know that you are worried that there will be an accident in this line, please rest assured, even if there is really a traitor in the Shadow Clan, we Dark Elves will never kill each other in the same group." ”
"As for the nightingale and pandan, they are also older, and they are no longer little girls, ignorant and ignorant, who don't care about anything. You should slowly participate in the major affairs of the clan and make your own contribution to the clan. ”
"You don't know what the dark elves will look like after that. Al thought to himself, but he couldn't say it.
He knew that this was the matriarch who was cultivating Nightingale and Pandan Grass, increasing their experience and experience, and preparing for the future leadership of the Moonlight Clan.
"It's just that the patriarchs of the Dark Elf clan are generally elected, can they still be appointed by the patriarch of the previous generation?", Al pondered, he also couldn't read the thoughts of the female patriarch.
Her every move seems ordinary, but when you taste it carefully, it is intriguing everywhere.
The roads in the underworld are intricate, and there are places where there are no roads at all. You have to turn left and right in the rock pile to find your way.
Sometimes it seems that there is no road at all, and it is tightly blocked by huge rocks, but when you get closer, you will find that there is a small gap in the two large rocks, which can only be passed through by one person.
Through the gap, there is another road ahead.
Al had only followed for a while, and he was already dizzy, unable to distinguish between east and west. At this time, he also had to admire the Dark Elf Elder who was leading the way.
Even this kind of road that is not a road, he can remember it clearly, and there is no hesitation or mistake when guiding the way, which has to be amazed and admired.
"Actually, it's not about remembering, but practice makes perfect, when you walk a road thousands of times, even if you walk in the dark with your eyes closed, there will be no mistakes. To Al's inquiry, Nightingale replied.
"Could it be that this one knows all the ways to the other clans, and has traveled them all thousands of times?" Al asked in surprise.
Nightingale nodded, "Elder Sunflower is the guide of our Moonlight Clan. She then explains to Al what a guide is.
When the Dark Elves first entered the Underworld, the environment in the Underworld was too harsh. They had to divide into clans and find a suitable habitat for their survival.
Just like those nomads on the earth, they are constantly on the move, chasing the pastures with abundant water and grass.
And because of this, the entire dark elf clan is torn apart, and it is difficult to communicate with each other. In order to strengthen the bond with each other, each clan has set up a special guide as a guide.
Every guide does nothing else in his life, just to travel through the entire underground world, find every dark elf clan, and memorize the path between them.
"The guide has spent his whole life on the road, ensuring that every road is unblocked, and that every clan is connected, and no one is missing. The nightingale looked at the Sunflower Elder who was standing in front of him and said respectfully.
"One can't be missing?", Al slowly savored the unusual determination and strength contained in it.
He looked at the Dark Elf Elf, different from the usual tall Dark Elf, his back was a little rickety at this time, and he looked like those old men who were old.
It was bent by the fatigue caused by the rush year after year, day after day, and also by the heavy trust and responsibility.
Along the way, they also met teams from other clans who had gone to participate in the meeting, and the teams that were also dark elves naturally merged together.
Al wrapped his head firmly in his cloak, especially his ears, which were tightly obscured. Externally, he pretended that he had been severely burned and could not see the slightest light.
Fortunately, he had learned Elven language before, and with the nightingale covering on the side, he didn't show any flaws.
