Chapter 155 What kind of species is the Moon Elf?
the following few days.
Rhodes stayed in the Dream Forest and did not go out.
The Elf Empire also experienced a huge explosion in foreign population.
A large number of troops rushed here and poured into the major cities of the Elf Empire, presenting an extremely prosperous scene.
Especially in the Elf Capital, there were so many people that the queue outside the city gate stretched for several kilometers.
Fortunately, the elves were disciplined and had strong garrison, so there wasn't too much trouble.
"Stop! Undergo inspection!"
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard outside the city gate.
The temple team that was about to enter the city was stopped by the elven guards, attracting countless surprised looks.
"The Temple actually sent people over as well."
"It seems to have come from the Jade Empire."
"Do they want to spread their teachings in the Elf Empire?"
"The elves believe in the Moon God. It's not easy to spread the Holy Light here."
"I heard that they are selecting saint sons and saint daughters recently. Maybe it has something to do with this?"
The crowd chattered and talked in low voices.
The news that the Temple selects Holy Sons and Holy Daughters every ten years is no longer a secret.
At a glance.
The entire temple team has many more handsome men and beautiful women, each of them has an outstanding temperament and exudes a holy aura. They should be this year's candidates.
It was obvious that the Temple wanted to take this opportunity to test their abilities, so they brought them all here.
but.
The elves were not worried.
Because they had been notified long ago what these guys were here for, so it was just a routine inspection.
The candidates from various branches in the temple team tried hard to maintain their image and looked calm and composed.
“Is this the capital of the Elf Empire? Although it is a bit difficult, I will do my best to bring the blessing of the Holy Light here.”
A handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes lifted his hair up with a faint smile on his face.
"Adams, I think you should save your energy. I will spread the Holy Light. As a holy girl, I have the responsibility to complete this arduous task."
The other girl had a pious look on her face, holding the cross tightly in her hand.
As soon as these words came out.
The whole team went into an uproar.
"Sacred Daughter? How dare you flatter yourself?"
"Forget it, I am the only one needed to spread the Holy Light."
"God, please forgive these people's ignorance. I will become your incarnation walking in the world and purify all evil."
"Greed has blinded your eyes, the Holy Light will cleanse your souls."
"I am the incarnation of Holy Light!"
A series of menacing words kept coming from the team, making passers-by look upset.
Before they even entered the city, the tension between the candidates was already extremely strong. They were constantly showing off their devotion to the Holy Light and belittling their competitors.
It is estimated that there will be more good shows to watch later, which makes everyone look forward to it.
"Lisia, have their heads been eaten by the undead?"
Next to Licia, a girl in a white robe of the same age as her had a look of disgust on her face and shuddered all over.
I've seen people pretending, but I've never seen anyone pretend like this.
Does she really want to compete with these guys for the reserve position?
"You'll get used to it." Licia smiled. "Many of them came from the central area of the headquarters, so they will definitely be more deeply influenced by the Holy Light."
Isn’t it strong?
It's all thick in my brain.
But it must be said that the talents of these candidates from the headquarters and other branches are truly amazing.
At her age, reaching the second level is already considered very outstanding.
But among these people, many have already reached the third level.
Adams, who spoke first, was promoted to the fourth level some time ago, which is simply terrifying.
"So what if they are from the headquarters? They are just two arms and one leg." The girl curled her lips, "I really don't understand what the higher-ups are thinking. They actually changed the assessment target to negotiations with the Elf Empire."
Yes.
The purpose of their coming here this time was not to preach, but to obtain the purchasing rights of a kind of healing nectar unique to the elves.
Of course, this matter is the responsibility of the leading bishop, and all the candidates need to do is to follow and learn.
Their performance during this period will also be included in their assessment.
After all, being able to negotiate in a place where it is difficult to spread faith is also one of the indispensable abilities of the Holy Son and Holy Daughter.
"Okay, go in and don't make trouble!"
After the inspection, the Elf Guard gave a warning and let the temple team pass.
Just as the team passed by them, the ranger captain in charge of the team seemed to have discovered something and his eyes suddenly fell on Licia.
"What's wrong, captain?"
The elf next to him asked doubtfully.
"It's okay, I found something interesting."
The captain narrowed his eyes, pointed at Licia who had already gone far away, and whispered: "Isn't the Temple going to select candidates for the Son and the Holy Maiden? Inform Erin and the others that she is the one, and try to give her as much preferential treatment as possible."
Originally they were not very welcoming to the temple. After all, they had different beliefs and had even had many conflicts in the past.
But now.
It seems a little different.
"The breath of nature spirits is quite interesting."
The captain of the guard murmured to himself and silently withdrew his gaze.
And at this time.
Licia had no idea and had already followed the team into the city. She was stunned by the prosperous scene before her.
“Is this the kingdom of nature?”
Licia took a deep breath of the air around her and felt like she was home.
The natural spirit in her body also began to stir.
"what happened?"
Licia asked doubtfully.
However, the response was an excited emotion, as if sensing something, causing the originally quiet natural spirits to become restless.
"Leaving Licia, what are you daydreaming about?"
At this moment, the girl's voice came, interrupting Licia's thoughts.
"Oh okay, here we come."
Licia suppressed her doubts and quickly caught up with the team.
Today they were going to meet and negotiate with the elders of the elves, so they didn't dare to stay and disappeared in the busy streets in a blink of an eye.
…And at this moment.
The deepest part of the imperial capital.
Rhodes, whose consciousness was projected over, looked around with a puzzled look on his face.
"Strange, where are all the people today?"
He left the tree house where he was resting and went outside, only to find that all the guards on duty had been withdrawn.
The surroundings were empty and there was not a single person in sight.
"Could it be that there are too many people and they are all busy maintaining order?"
Rhodes' eyes gradually brightened.
Just right.
Without these annoying guys following him, he can go out and wander around freely again, which is something he cannot experience in the dream forest.
Rhodes at this moment.
Like a wild cat sneaking out to steal some fish.
Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly left the tree house and ran in a random direction.
And he was running very fast, almost using all his strength for fear of being caught up.
But as he ran, he felt something was wrong.
"Strange, why haven't you come outside in so long?"
Rhodes gradually slowed down his pace and found that the trees around him not only did not become less numerous, but became more and more numerous.
He seemed to have run in the wrong direction and ran deep into the forest, where even the tree houses became much smaller.
boo~
Just thinking about it.
A wave spread out before my eyes.
His body passed through an invisible barrier and entered a quiet woodland.
"Huh? Why is there a barrier here? Could this be some elder's secret base?"
Rhodes looked around and saw no one, only a wooden house inside.
After hesitating for a moment, he walked towards the wooden house curiously and looked inside. It was empty.
strangeness.
Is no one living here?
Rhodes looked puzzled, not understanding why a wooden house was built in such a place and why a barrier that didn't look very useful was set up.
However, when he turned around with his head tilted and was about to leave, he suddenly found that a figure had been standing behind him, staring at him intently.
"..."
"..."
When their eyes met, the air froze in an instant.
Rhodes opened his mouth and was about to say something, but found that the other party was not the same as the elves he had seen before.
With long silver-white hair falling naturally, a beautiful face that looks like a piece of jade sculpture, and a long emerald green dress full of life, she stands there as if blending into everything around her.
Even compared with the Elf Queen, she is not inferior!
"You are... the Elf Queen's sister?"
Rhodes blurted out a word out of the blue.
"..."
The Moon Priest stood there blankly, looking at the figure in front of him that was both familiar and unfamiliar, and a majestic voice full of disgust echoed in his mind.
"Hey~ You're all wet right after you were born. You'll be my sister from now on. Silas, quickly change her into some nice clothes. How about a princess dress? Not saying anything means you agree."
"Lord Moon God, she doesn't seem to be able to speak yet..."
"...You're the only one who talks too much nonsense, go get dressed!"
silence.
There was a long silence.
The figure in front of him seemed to be lost in some memory. He stood there blankly, staring at him with his eyes, which made Rhodes feel uneasy.
"Um... I said I broke in accidentally, do you believe me?"
"letter."
The Moon Priest answered almost subconsciously.
Then she was stunned for a moment, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.
But maybe because he hadn't smiled for a long time, he looked a little stiff.
"What makes you think I'm the Elf Queen's sister?" she asked.
"Ah? This one, it feels a bit similar, but the temperament is a little different. Did I guess wrong?"
Rhodes felt that the elf in front of him was very strange.
It was not an elf he knew, nor was it a dark elf. Could it be some kind of mutated elf that was afraid to see people so it locked itself up here and isolated itself with a barrier?
It sounds a bit pathetic.
"No, you guessed right. I am the sister of the Elf Queen." The Moon Priest's eyebrows moved slightly. "My name is Felris Elune, what's yours?"
"My name is Rod. Do you live here alone?"
Seeing that the other party had no ill intentions, Rhodes relaxed and started chatting.
He was actually quite curious about what kind of species the white-haired elf was.
The ones that Yilin and the others wore were emerald green and yellow, and this was the first time he saw silver-white ones.
I don’t know if Xiaodou can produce this kind of elf.
"Rod..."
Phillis murmured softly, then raised her head and whispered, "Well, I live alone because I don't like noisy places."
"So that's how it is. I thought you were afraid to go out because you looked different from other elves."
"…I'm a moon elf, so I look different from them."
"Moon Elf?"
Rhodes paused when he heard this.
Do elves have this species?
However, before he could ask more questions, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps in the distance, which made his face change.
"Oh no! They're chasing us. I have something to do, so I'm leaving now. We can talk again some other time. Don't tell them I've been here!"
After saying this, Rhodes ran away.
Only Phillis was left standing there, looking at the direction he left with a complicated expression.
"is it you……"
He murmured softly, and stood there for a long time as if he was lost in some memories.
And the other side.
Rhodes, who had been running out for a short while, was eventually bumped into by the elf guards.
In desperation, he could only randomly get some seeds, then hurriedly retracted his consciousness projection and rushed back to the dream forest.
"It's really hard to deal with them. These guys are good in every way except that they are too stubborn. The elf babies raised in the forest must not be like them!"
