Chapter 404: World Tree Lahti
Homo sapiens is an interesting creature, and when the elves put the choice to make a contract with the World Tree into the hands of adult elves, the elves who choose to make a contract become quite few, if not even none. It's also normal to think about it, who would suddenly choose a life that is more restrictive after getting used to a certain life, and such a change doesn't make any sense except for trouble.
But when this choice was transformed, it became a privilege that only a few elites could have, and only by becoming a Shenmu Guard could they make a contract with the World Tree. Despite the fact that once a contract is made, the commandments must be followed scrupulously, there are countless young elves who aspire to become part of a fixed number of guards.
The change in the relationship with the World Tree has the advantage of liberating the productivity, creativity, and destructive power of the elves, and even the elves once reigned in the world and established a huge empire.
But the side effect of this is that the World Tree seems to have degenerated, the avatars no longer appear, and even the elves have lost the ability to communicate with the World Tree. Only a certain special bloodline elf remains, and it can still communicate with the World Tree.
Maybe the branches are still dense and lush, maybe people still dare not insult under the shade of the trees, but except for the bloodline that has become a royal family, and a very small number of members of the Divine Wood Guard, the World Tree seems to have closed its heart and become a pure plant.
In this regard, the elves of the kingdom do not know how to redeem it. Speaking of which, I can only sigh deeply.
The news from the mouths of these old elves was really completely different from what the wood elves said and imagined the situation. And what is the reason behind it, someone has a flash of inspiration, as if he has some clues, but the sudden hairy feeling at his feet dispels his budding thoughts. Lin looked at the kitten rubbing at his feet in surprise.
"Meow~."
Reaching out to grab the uninvited guest who was screaming in a milk voice, Lin asked curiously, "Hey, little thing, how did you run in?" ”
I have the impression that a group of armed elves did not seal the outside strictly. Is there a rat hole that allows this kitten to chase in? It's just that he was holding the cat in one hand, but in the eyes of others, there was a look of confusion, Lin smiled and asked, "What's wrong?" Were you surprised to see this cat? First of all, I didn't smuggle it in, you have to ask yourself. ”
"No, Your Excellency, you don't have anything in your hands." Luca? Titov said.
This prime minister of the kingdom is deceiving, or is it ...... Lin turned his head, looked at Fen who was sitting beside him, and asked, "Didn't you see it either?" ”
The lich looked at someone with the expression of seeing an idiot. Someone, no matter how stupid, should know something. He looked back at the kitten he was holding in one hand and said, "Hey, little thing, what the hell are you?" ”
"Meow."
"What's your name?"
"Meow."
"It's called Meow, what a good name. - A cat rolled its eyes, "- How did you get in?" ”
"Meow."
"Where are your parents?"
"Meow~."
Hold the forelimb armpits with both hands and lift the kitten high. "Are you male or female?"
"Meow meow!" The kitten's uncooperative lower limbs flicked around, and the paws on its hind feet were about to scratch someone's face.
"Alright, alright. You're looking for my help. If yes, just meow. ”
This variegated cat, which should still be drinking milk, settled down, tilted its little head, looked cute, and kept meowing. It looks like he's going to play dumb to the end.
There was some speculation in my heart, how could I let this kitten pretend to be stupid. Lin smiled and asked, "Well, I'm very interested in what you are." So do you agree to let me dissect you? Oh, that's to cut open and study. Meow if you agree, and meow all the time if you agree very much. ”
The three-flower little milk cat that was originally selling cuteness directly looked at the person in front of him with a pair of loveless dead fish eyes, and didn't dare to make any sound.
"Heh, aren't you going to pretend you don't understand? Can you speak human words? ”
"Meow meow."
"I don't understand. Then it's worthless, it's better to cook it and eat it. Cat meat, I heard Lao Guang say that the taste is very special, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to taste it to this day. ”
Sanhua Kitten didn't bark this time, and turned her head directly to bite her hand. Don't look at this little thing is very small, the claws and teeth are strong enough, and when someone eats pain, of course they shake it off. The freed kitten nimbly scurried across the table and wanted to run away.
But it's so easy for someone to let a small animal that has come into view run away. One flashes, grabbing the skin at the back of the neck; In another flash, it was back to its original position.
This one-man show, of course, made a vote of elves stunned. They don't understand the point of someone's actions at all. Especially when he acted vividly, as if he really had something in his hands. But the last trick that suddenly appeared and disappeared still frightened the well-informed group of old elves. If such a technique is used in assassination, who of them can prevent it?
Watching with interest as someone pressed against the table, the emptiness. Fen asked, "What is the reason for this?" You can see it, but I can't see it. And I changed the way I looked at it, but I didn't detect anything at all. Is it in the consciousness of existence? Or is it a specific wavelength of light frequency? "She certainly doesn't think that someone is cheating, that this deception is pointless. Then the possibility remains, and the object in his hand does somehow avoid the eyes of others.
Press the kitten in your hand on the table. The kitten, who was suppressed, lay on its stomach very recognizantly, not moving or barking. Those black eyes were restless.
Faced with Fen's question, Lin thought for a while and said, "This should be a characteristic of high-dimensional creatures. If he does not limit his information transmission, it will be like those indescribable things, and at the first glance, people will be driven crazy by superfluous and inaccessible information. But if he reins himself in, then what doesn't exist in other people's cognition really doesn't exist. ”
"Can't you touch it?" Fen reached under someone's suppressed object and felt it empty. In Lin's eyes, it was the lich's hand that swept by, and the kitten barked unpleasantly. Fen asked suspiciously, "Then why can you?" ”
"Well, because he sent certain messages to me, he connected with me and allowed me to observe what he was transmitting. Of course, to perceive the information he is sending out in a way that I can understand. But this connection is permanent, and when it is established, it is not something that he wants to disappear from my perception again. So I think if he can keep this state, maybe he needs to think about whether he wants to appear in front of more people. But it's not like there's no other way. ”
Perhaps the conversation between the two magicians was not understood by the elves for the most part. But what they could understand seemed to show that the human magician could see something. And most likely...... "Can Your Excellency see His Majesty Lahti?" ”
Unfamiliar name, Jean Lin asked directly: "Lahti? Who? ”
When several old elves mentioned this one, they all stood in awe and said, "Guardian of the kingdom, His Majesty the World Tree Lahti. ”
Looking at the kitten that was pressed under his hands and pretended to be well-behaved. Lin said, "Is he your World Tree?" I'm not sure. Maybe he's just a little thing running down the passage of the World Tree from other worlds. ”
"Meow~."
Speculation about this uncertainty that someone suddenly thinks of themselves. How did you end up in Maze? Can we go back the same way? With such a distraction, the hand will naturally relax. The kitten, of course, seized the opportunity and swooped out, watching someone warily on the other side of the long table.
For the kitten that escaped, Lin looked at his empty hand, but he didn't think about catching it again. Instead, he looked at the kitten with its forelimbs lowered and its buttocks cocked high, ready to sprint at any moment.
Because he guessed what he was invited to the Elven Kingdom for, Lin You made some preparations in advance. At this time, he took out a magic stone that had been prepared a long time ago, which contained introductory knowledge related to the World Tree's innate magic formation. It is mainly a collection of inductive content, as well as explanations with mathematical methods.
This was originally a gadget used to prevaricate the elves and make errands. If the other party makes any unreasonable demands, he will throw this magic stone to send the elf away. Now this magic stone is just used to lure the kitten in front of me, who doesn't know what it is.
As soon as someone took out the magic stone, the kitten seemed to sense what was inside, and its two eyes stared straight at it, not relaxing for a moment. As someone deliberately moves up and down, left and right, the little head and melon seeds follow suit.
Seeing this look, Lin couldn't help but smile. He stopped teasing the cat, and gently threw the magic stone. This action, not only the kitten stared, but all the elves and Fen present also watched. When the stone fell back on the table, and after a few flicks, the bones swirled, and all the elves woke up, realizing that they had watched someone's one-man show for long enough.
There is a relatively calm old elf, who has to speak out and scold someone. But right in front of them, the swirling magic stone stopped abruptly. They vaguely saw a variegated kitten, covering the magic stone with its short forelimbs crossed. Then he lowered his head and put the magic stone into his mouth.
Just when the kitten holding the magic stone was about to swallow it, it found itself in the center of everyone's attention.
Cognition is a reciprocal act. There is no one side that can see the other side and go unnoticed. People who don't have any connection with the kitten are a background in his eyes, no different from a stone on the side of the road. Once the connection is established, the person who knows it is as if he has come to life in his world, so that he can realize that he is being seen.
Pretending to swallow the magic stone as if nothing happened, the Sanhua kitten was still cute, tilted its head, and called out in that milky voice: "Meow." ”
He then jumped towards the edge of the table. The short limbs kicked hard, and the kitten in the air faded. Just before hitting the ground, it disappeared from everyone's eyes.
At this time, someone said on the side: "To let others see things that don't exist, you must first have something that they can observe as a medium to make people realize that something really exists." When cognition is established, it is possible to see things that are not there in the first place. Of course, this is not necessarily a good thing. ”
