Chapter 249 (Catching Bugs)
After registering the number of the sweet cake, Yunmian also ended her break.
She held the cake in her hand and said to the system, "Let's start the next task."
Upon hearing this, the system immediately entered the mission world to apply. After a while, the only person left in the temporary residence was a black cat lying on a soft pillow, its belly rising and falling gently with its breathing.
After entering the new mission world, the system immediately threw away the small cake that the host was holding.
Little Sweetie didn't even have the time to say goodbye to his owner before his senior threw him away somewhere unknown.
Yun Mian, whose memory was completely sealed, was unaware of its existence, and the appearance of the five-year-old child at this moment was very different from all the previous worlds.
The system looked at the host, who was not much older than itself, and couldn't help but circle around her twice.
Yun Mian raised her little face in a daze, and her eyes followed the big ball of light as it turned twice. She then became dizzy. The slightly transparent green wings behind her flapped subconsciously, but still could not save her from the tragic ending of fainting on the ground in mid-air.
"Pah~" A small figure fell straight from mid-air into the grass under the tree, and there was no movement for a long time.
The other elves who had been watching her not far away flew over nervously, worried that this little creature who had been hanging on the elven mother tree for five years would fall to death. They flew over from the branches and leaves everywhere to check on her condition.
Among them was an elf wearing an exquisite crown on his head and holding a scepter in his hand, and slowly landed beside Yunmian.
"Queen, is Little Cotton okay?"
"Queen, why isn't Cotton moving?"
"Queen……"
Yun Yejin raised her white fingers to signal the noisy elves to be quiet, and then they all fell silent and focused their eyes on the Elf Queen and Little Cotton.
Little Cotton was born from the essence of the Queen's heart and the most vigorous branches and leaves of the Mother Tree of Life. She is the future princess of the entire forest elves. If something happens, who knows how many years it will take to wait for the next princess to be born from the Mother Tree of Life.
In the silence, the only sounds were the rustling of leaves in the wind and the clear chirping of birds in the forest.
Yun Mian was so dizzy from the fall that she lay in the soft grass for a long time without being able to recover.
Until her wings were gently touched with the tip of a scepter.
The recovery magic spreads from the wing tips to the entire body in an instant.
The little elf in the grass climbed up in a daze, and was frightened by the grass stems in front of him that were taller than himself. His green eyes widened slightly, and he stumbled and fell before he could stand firmly. In front of all the elves, he sat down firmly in the grass.
"Little Cotton is so cute~"
The forest elves who had been observing quietly finally couldn't bear it any longer and started to touch each other with their wings, whispering their feelings.
"She seemed frightened. The blades of grass were too high for her."
"Look at her delicate features and beautiful wings. Mother Tree is above. Little Cotton is worthy of being the only creation of Him and Her Majesty the Queen."
"Her cheeks must have been wonderfully soft, as soft as the loveliest petals of a flower I have ever seen."
"No, it's more like human silk. It's the softest thing I've ever touched."
"Leah, I think it should be like the down of a peacock. That's the softest thing I've ever touched."
"Neither is right. The softest thing is the clouds in the sky. Unfortunately, none of us has ever felt what it feels like."
"We haven't touched Cotton's cheeks yet, so her cheeks must be as soft as clouds."
The elves who had been arguing in low voices danced happily, as they finally reached a consensus on this strange matter.
And in the grass, Yunmian finally crawled up again.
The tip of her small white toes lightly touched the sharp edge of the grass blade. She looked up curiously, her sparkling green pupils penetrated by the sunlight filtering through the gaps between the leaves, making her look even more translucent green, like a lake sparkling in the sun, or even more like a new green bud.
Newborn, ignorant, naive, innocent.
"Mom?" The elf raised his little face and called softly to the elf queen who was leaning over and looking at him tenderly.
A subconscious name, an instinctive name, the most intimate and dearest name in the world.
Hearing the little guy's voice as tender as a baby bird, Yun Yejin was stunned for a moment and then couldn't help but smile.
"Little Cotton, try flapping your wings and flying." She gently guided the little fellow whose wings were flapping in vain behind her.
Yun Mian nodded obediently, and the next second, she tried to flap the wings behind her.
There was a gentle breeze in the endless Silver Moon Forest. When the wind passed by her gently, the green grass leaves gently leaned over, and the transparent wings spread out silently, allowing the breeze to slowly lift it up from the grass, just like lifting up a soft young leaf, dancing slowly and leisurely in the air.
The wings behind the newborn elf are so soft and cute. The sunlight penetrates her transparent wings as gently as through the gaps between leaves, and creates beautiful colorful glows on the wings.
Like the shimmering water in a lake rippling with wind, only softer and gentler.
I don't know which elf ran out first and held Little Cotton's hand, taking her to fly flexibly among the leaves, and then picked the sweetest and most fragrant petals and scattered them from mid-air, fluttering down on the elves, and the gentle fragrance of flowers was brought by the wind, and then the most cheerful and melodious elf song in the world gradually sounded in the forest.
Fairies, flying birds, flowers, grass leaves, big trees, breeze, sunshine...
Everything in the Silvermoon Forest was celebrating the birth of the little elf. They were smiling, cheering, singing, and humming a song full of childish vitality.
But all of this is hidden by a forest called "Silver Moon". The tall, dense, and stacked vegetation is the most trusted, relied upon, and solid safety barrier for all life in the entire forest. The forest elves hide in the center of the forest, guarding the only mother tree of life in the entire continent for generations.
Yunmian was led by her mother to the foot of the Mother Tree of Life.
The Mother Tree of Life was very tall and large. She raised her head as hard as she could, with the back of her head almost parallel to the ground against the tips of her wings, but she still couldn't see where the crown of the Mother Tree was.
The system can no longer nestle on the host's shoulders or head. It is afraid that it will crush the newly born little cotton ball. What if it will never grow taller in the future?
Therefore, it flew aside and looked up at the mother tree of life with its host, and marveled in its heart at the miracle of life created by nature in every world.
Such a tall tree of life not only nurtures the forest elves, but also is the core of the entire Silver Moon Forest and even the Fairy Tale Continent.
The mother tree of life of the elves, the tree of life in the Silvermoon Forest, and the world tree in the quest world.
"Little Cotton, hold my hand." The Elf Queen smiled and stretched out her hand to Yunmian.
Yunmian held it without hesitation, and the next second, she was carried by her mother to fly from the ground towards the Tree of Life with flapping wings.
The leaves of the Tree of Life are of different shapes. On some branches, the leaves are full of vitality and cover the elven fruits that are in the process of growth. They are transparent, golden, tender green, and as diverse as the leaves.
"Every fairy fruit here will fall off the branches of the mother tree when they are ripe, and then be supported and wrapped by the accompanying leaves, turning into a healthy new fairy in a very short time."
As they flew around the Mother Tree of Life, Yun Yejin softly explained to Little Mianhua the importance of the entire Mother Tree of Life to the elves. Finally, after they finally reached the top, she led the little elf to step on the soft and thick leaves of the Mother Tree of Life, tilted her head and said to her, "Little Mianhua, protecting the Mother Tree of Life is our lifelong duty as forest elves. Once the Mother Tree of Life is damaged, it will be difficult for us forest elves to continue to reproduce in peace."
Yunmian nodded as if she understood, then under her mother's encouraging gaze, she half squatted down, stretched out her delicate fingers and gently touched the broad leaves of the mother tree.
The next second, she closed her eyes and tilted her head slightly, as if she heard the gentle humming of the leaves in the wind.
Yunmian opened her eyes in surprise.
I just happened to see the leaves under my feet curling gently and touching my ankles.
"Mom, is the mother tree talking to me?" Yun Mian looked up at her mother.
Yun Yejin smiled and nodded: "We forest elves are all children of the Mother Tree. She will always protect us until our souls return to the Mother Tree."
Yunmian: "Is mom also a child of the mother tree?"
"certainly."
Yun Yejin touched Little Cotton's wings that were waving happily, and said softly: "The leaf under your feet is your companion leaf. Little Cotton, pick it. From now on, it will always carry your soul. No matter where you are, it will guide you home."
Under the guidance of her mother, Yunmian carefully picked off the large petal-shaped leaf, and then curiously bent it to cover her head.
The sunlight was blocked, casting a green shadow in front of my eyes.
The queen tapped the leaf with her scepter, awakening the magic to wrap the leaf. Soon the petal-shaped leaf shrank a lot, and finally stayed obediently on the elf's head. As the wind blew, it slowly turned into star-like lights and lingered on the elf's body to form a small petal-shaped dress.
Yunmian and the system sighed at the same time at what was happening.
Yun Yejin touched the thumb-sized small leaf that had appeared in the elf's hair at some point, and then took the elf by the hand and flew down from the top of the mother tree.
The system can only be thankful that its host is not afraid of heights, otherwise if it jumped from such a height, even if it had wings, Mianmian, the newborn elf cub, would probably be scared to death.
While the Elf Queen was taking the elves to choose a tree house in the Elf land, the system also took the time to introduce itself to the elves who had been immersed in the new world and new things.
Finally, when the little elf Yunmianmian was swinging on a small swing made of vines, the system squatted on another swing and swayed slowly with the wind and said, "Little Cotton, this world is a fairy tale series. We have seven world missions to complete. The main mission of the world is to protect the Mother Tree of Life and let Him avoid the ending of death and withering."
This mission world is not some big Western fantasy world, but a medium-sized mission world composed of small fairy tale worlds spliced together by the World Tree.
There is magic, warriors, dragons, and seven princesses who will eventually live happily together with their princes in fairy tales.
And those seven world quests all rewrite the fairy tale ending.
A new idea, I hope I can work hard to write better.
