Chapter 298 Half-elf
Facts have proved that forest elves are indeed not good at lying. Even if they are so-called elves endorsements, they will almost explain everything they can explain after being fooled by Xiwei.
However, if the elves do not communicate with humans in addition to necessary trade, it is predictable that their conversation skills are not high.
In short, this incident happened in the forest where they depended on for their living, and there was an unignorable change.
Vegetation in large areas begins to crystallize abnormally. When herbivores lose plants that can be eaten, they will naturally move out of those areas, and the same is true for carnivores that feed on herbivores.
As the crystallization area expands, the number of animals and insects in other areas of the forest begins to increase sharply. Many plants are eaten like locust plagues, leaving only bare branches. Moreover, this victimization trend is still expanding with the increase of herbivores.
The larger the crystallization area, the greater the density of animals in other areas, and the irrecoverable damage to the forest will increase accordingly. As long as the crystallization does not stop, this vicious cycle will continue until the hometown of the forest elves and the entire southern forest is completely destroyed.
What's worse is that if ordinary forest elves stay in the crystallized forest area for too long, their bodies will gradually begin to crystallize. This has caused a major blow to the investigation of forest elves, and even stopped halfway.
For forest elves, this has reached the point where they are related to life and death. Even with their personality that they do not like to communicate with humans, they have to send envoys to invite the strongest among humans to help.
After sending the dwarf demon to the guest room for a good rest, Xiwei walked slowly towards the bonfire party with a thoughtful expression.
"I hate it so much~"
Fitt suddenly emerged from behind Sevi, sticking out his tongue like a real ghost, carrying two small blue ghost fires, and said in a gloomy tone.
"What are you playing again..." Xiwei, who was interrupted by the thought, gave the girl a angrily glance.
"Because you have become accustomed to me suddenly appearing, and I can't scare you at all. I feel so lonely~"
The ghost girl put away the two balls of ghost fire, and her light blue cheeks, which were originally a bit gloomy and miserable, returned to the previous round pearl color: "So you plan to help?"
"Well, I have to think about it a little bit."
Xiwei scratched his head in distress: "The two elves are vague about the specific situation. I suspect that they have never personally visited the forest area where the crystallization talks are."
"As the endorsement of noble elves, how could they go to such dangerous places?"
The ghost girl revealed her familiarity with the elves: "Generally speaking, the only forest patrolers are the ones who perform dangerous missions among the forest elves. But maybe the moon god guards will intervene this time, after all, it is an incident related to the moon tree."
Although forest elves can be considered half a magician, they also have professions unique to their own race. The most common one is forest patrolers who have similar functions to the Human City Guard, who are responsible for patrolling the jungle and protecting the safety of the ethnic group.
In addition to the war elders and the great elders, the strongest and most mysterious profession among the elves is the Moon God Guard. They live near the Moon Tree, and the only thing they have to do is pray to the quiet moon and protect the safety of the elves' holy tree, the moon tree.
This time the incident is aimed at the forest itself. In other words, the moon tree may also be involved, so the possibility of the mysterious guys guarding the moon gods will take action.
"Speaking of this, I've always been curious about something."
Seeing that the ghost girl seemed to know very well about forest elves, Siwei suddenly asked the question that had been bothering him: "Forest elves were all born from the moon tree. They have no gender and have no ability to reproduce themselves... So, how did the so-called half-elves appear? I have looked up many ancient books related to elves, but there is no clear record of this."
In addition, what Xiwei is most confused about is also related to the piece of equipment he has.
A long time ago, he obtained a treasure-level equipment called Moon Branch. In fact, until now, the powerful attributes of this equipment still allow it to rank among the top in Xiwei's collection.
But the problem is that the full name of this piece of equipment is 'Elf Princess' Moon Branch'.
There is no distinction between male and female among the elves. Moreover, as far as Severe knows, the highest status among the forest elves is the Great Elder, followed by the Moon Loft composed of twelve elders, and there is no word related to the princess at all.
So, who is the "Princess of Moon Elquit" mentioned in the note of this equipment?
"It's really hard for humans to know the inside story about half-elves." Fitt did not disappoint Severe. She nodded with a clear face: "I heard a friend say that during my lifetime - well, which friend can't remember it, but someone has indeed said that. In the mythical age, the elves were born too slowly and the number of people too low made them on the verge of destruction under the attack of the abyss demon. At this time, a great alchemist in the elves concealed the guards of the moon god and secretly stole a piece of moon branches. Through research on the branches, a special 'seed' was created."
"Seed?" Sivi asked curiously: "Can the plant grown produce half-elves?"
As he said that, the picture of cultivating people in Dragon Ball Z appeared in Xiwei's mind.
"No, if it was such a simple item, I'm afraid the half-elves would not be a secret thing for the elves." The ghost girl shook her head and continued: "That kind of 'seed' can only grow normally only on the humanoids planted on females. From the appearance, it is called pregnancy. What they finally gave birth to is a creature with certain elves magical talents, mixed with other bloodlines and reproductive functions - half-elves."
Listening to the gloomy feeling deliberately created in the ghost girl's words, Xiwei's cognitive image of half-elves suddenly changed from cultivating people to an unusual face-cuckling insect...
"The elves in the mythological age are so heavy..." After trying to dispel the image in his mind, Siwei couldn't help but sigh.
No wonder the elves don’t like half-elves, no wonder there are almost no narratives about the birth of half-elves in the classics... No matter what race it is, it won’t like that kind of freak creature. Although they are innocent themselves...
