As in the legend, although men and women are generally equal within the elves, in important positions, female elves usually hold important positions.

Elucia, the elder of the Nightsong Clan, is a female elf, and the Lunaris clan has three elders, all of whom are female elves.

Elder Lisanya Shadow Song was the oldest and most qualified of the three elders, and naturally the one with the highest prestige.

According to Elder Elucia's description of Xu Yi, she should be close to four hundred years old this year, dozens of years older than Elder Elucia.

But judging by her appearance alone, she was not much different from a young girl in her early twenties, and she looked very close to Elder Elucia's youth.

Because of Elder Elucia's letter, Elder Lisanya Shadowsong's attitude towards Xu Yi was not as wary and hostile to him as ordinary elves, but instead looked at Xu Yi with curiosity.

"Human, you don't seem to have anything special about you from the outside. You're supposed to be a human magician, but I can tell you're not that powerful. I'm curious, why does Elucia look at you differently?" Elder Lisanya's first sentence was very straightforward to express the curiosity in his heart.

Xu Yi smiled and replied, "Elder Shadow Song, I think about me, Yanis must have told you a lot in the past few days. ”

"Yes, Yanis seems to like you, she describes to me your good qualities, and she even thinks you can save the entire elven race. "Lisanya?" Elder Yingge looked Xu Yi up and down again, and shook his head slightly. "But I don't see that possibility. ”

"Elder Shadow Song, you can't see this kind of thing just by looking at it. Of course. I'm not as exaggerated as Annis describes. It's just that I think the elves just don't lock themselves up. If we humans get along normally and friendly, then the elves don't actually have any crisis at all, and naturally they don't need any rescue. Xu Yidao.

"Are you getting along with humans normally and friendly?" Elder Lisanya's expression was a little embarrassed, and his thoughts instantly returned to a long time ago. "Before the outbreak of the Race War, humans did get along with us elves for a long time. But as soon as humanity felt strong enough, you went to war mercilessly. Since then, humans and elves have never had the possibility of normal friendship. ”

"You care too much about the past. Xu also said unceremoniously. "Although we human beings also respect and value history, our human creed is that history is history. The past is in the past. Now, thousands of years have passed since the race war, and the hatred between humans and elves has long since disappeared. Since the elves of the Nightsong tribe can get along with us humans normally and friendly, then I think the elves of other tribes can do the same. ”

"I must express my admiration for the courage of Elucia, who conquered her heart in order for her tribe to survive. But...... We of the Moon Shadow tribe are not facing the same crisis as the Nightsong tribe, and even if we don't get along with humans, we can still survive. So humans, even though I met you because of Elucia's letter, I don't think we need to continue communicating. Please go back. ”

Looking at the calm expression on Elder Lisanya's Shadow Song face. Xu Yi couldn't help but scold in his heart.

These elves all seem to be ruthless. But in Xu Yi's opinion, this is clearly tsundere.

Obviously, the elven race of the entire continent is now facing a big problem of racial survival, but she is still here to say that there is no crisis.

Should I say that this is the arrogance of the elves, or is it true that she is not aware of the problem?

Thinking of the scale of the Moon Shadow Clan, which numbered more than 3,000 elves, and how they got along with ordinary humans in the Duchy of Stantin, Xu Yi felt that the latter possibility should be the majority.

After all, Xu Yi knows so many elves, they may seem arrogant, but they have one common advantage, that is, they are very honest.

Since Elder Lisanya Shadowsong said that she didn't think the Moon Shadow Clan was in crisis, that meant she really thought so.

Thinking of this, Xu Yi felt that it was better not to go around in circles with her, so after thinking about it, he asked directly: "Elder Shadow Song, you said that your Moon Shadow Clan is not in crisis, then I want to ask a question. Excuse me...... What is the total number of elves in the Lunaris tribe right now?"

Elder Lisanya Shadow Song was stunned and asked, "What are you asking for?"

"Because the total population represents the prosperity of a race. If the total population of a race is constantly and steadily increasing, it means that the whole race is in the process of thriving upward, and if the total population is always declining, it means that the race is in crisis. Elder Shadow Song, has the total number of elves in the Moon Shadow Clan increased or decreased compared to ten or a hundred years ago?"

Elder Lisanya's face changed slightly.

As the oldest elder in the Moon Shadow Clan, she certainly knew very well that compared to ten years ago, the total population of the Moon Shadow Clan had not changed much, but if compared to a hundred years ago, the total number of elves in the Moon Shadow Clan now was only less than ninety percent of what it was then!

Just a hundred years later, the Moon Shadow Clan has lost one-tenth of its population.

According to this trend, I am afraid that it will not take a thousand years for the Moon Shadow Clan to naturally disappear on this continent.

Seeing Elder Lisanya Shadow Song's expression, Xu Yi immediately knew that he had guessed correctly.

In fact, it's not just the Nightsong tribe and the Moon Shadow tribe, it should be said that since the race war, the total number of elves on the entire Sainz continent has been declining.

The reason why elves are rarely seen on the Sainz continent now, in addition to the fact that the elves are unwilling to get along with humans, the most important reason is that the elves have become extremely rare.

According to this trend, in another thousand years, the elven race will become a rare race that is even rarer than the pandas in the Celestial Empire on Earth.

It was precisely because of seeing this terrible trend that Elder Elucia would meet Xu Yi and begin to seek the possibility of peaceful coexistence between the elves and humans, trying to bring the elves back to the entire continent and let the elves regain their lives with a new way of life.

Elder Elucia was forced to make this bold choice because of the crisis of the Nightsong Clan, and the Moon Shadow Clan was not facing such an urgent crisis, so Elder Lisanya Shadowsong would not give a damn about it.

But when Xu also raised this question, Elder Lisanya Shadow Song also had to face this reality.

At this time, she suddenly remembered something mentioned in Elder Elucia's letter.

In the letter, Elder Elucia said that since choosing to cooperate with humans, the Nightsong Tribe has actually appeared with three newborn elves in just one year!

This is a birth rate far beyond imagination for the Night Song tribe with a total population of less than 1,000!

Even before the Race War, during the most glorious period of the elven race, the birth rate of the entire elven race never exceeded one in a thousand. And now the Night Song Clan, such a small elven tribe, has actually reached three thousandths!

If you compare the lifespan of the elves several times that of humans, then this birth rate is almost close to that of humans!

Elder Elucia did not understand the reason for this change, but she pointed out in her letter that the change in the birth rate and the various changes in the tribe were all caused by the appearance of this human named Xu Yi.

Although I don't know the specific reason, this Xu Yi may be the key.

Thinking of this, and thinking about the possibility that the elven race could also multiply as quickly as humans, Elder Lisanya Shadow Song looked at Xu Yi's gaze and instantly became kind.

###

Another three days passed, and Xu Yi and his party returned to Samara Town.

Compared with when he went, in addition to Xu Yi and Yanis, there were two more maids given to Xu Yi by the Weilun patriarch, and three more female elves of the Night Song tribe.

These three female elves were ordered by Elder Lisanya Shadow Song to follow Xu Yi back to the Lampari Kingdom.

According to Elder Lisanya Shadowsong, these three female elves were the messengers she sent to the Nightsong Clan, and in addition to bringing greetings to Elder Elucia on her behalf, they also had to follow Xu Yi for a while to learn about the human world like Anis.

Xu Yi had no objection to this, he had not expected to be able to convince the Moon Shadow Clan to cooperate with him through a simple meeting.

It would also be good to let Elder Shadow Song understand the cooperation model between himself and the Nightsong Clan through these three elves, and experience the changes he has brought to them before making a decision.

However, what he couldn't understand was why Elder Lisanya Shadow Song had sent three elves at once, and all of them were extremely beautiful female elves.

What's even more strange is that she should send some old and serious elves with sufficient wisdom for this kind of thing, but the three female elves sent out this time are all less than a hundred years old.

If you put it to the corresponding human age, it is less than 20 years old.

Three yellow-haired girls who are less than twenty years old, can they really find out anything?

Xu Yi had a lot of doubts about this, but looking at Yanis beside her, she shrunk back this question.

Originally, Elder Elucia sent out Janis, who was not yet an adult according to human age, and now Elder Shadow Song is doing this, probably just a simple imitation.

Of course, that's not a problem for him.

Anyway, he just wanted to show Elder Lisanya Shadow Song the cooperation between himself and the Night Song Clan, and such a little girl would instead hand over the most intuitive report, which would be more convenient for Elder Shadow Song to make a judgment.

As for the final result, Xu Yi is still very confident.

Especially when he saw that the road leading to the Black Rice Wasteland outside the small town of Samara was nearing completion. (To be continued......)
