The elves were quite surprised, but they still led the three thousand elves deep into the basin to meet the pure-blooded elves there.
"This is the rule of the Elven race, somewhat like political correctness; a meeting or contest between purebloods cannot be refused."
"Although it's unclear why the internal strife among the ancient elves dissipated and subsided so quickly, it might just be their biological characteristic. Not all races are as fond of internal strife as humans."
During the journey, Xiao Linlin obediently explained these things to Su Lin. She had already established a good relationship with the elves like Elrere and extracted a lot of localized intelligence information.
"Um."
Su Lin nodded. Different game modes have their own customs and habits, and learning and accepting these is a necessary survival skill.
The group of elves in front of us, although they are stronger, do not rely on complex terrain such as forests and mountains to protect themselves. Instead, they live openly in the basin area where there is no natural defense.
They have lived here for countless ages without ever perishing, which is enough to demonstrate their formidable strength and ability to easily fight against any creatures or races with malicious intentions.
If we look beyond the surface to the essence, these spirits are very similar to ancient China, occupying the most fertile terrain, enjoying leisure and pleasure, while the surrounding small countries dare not invade. Even if there are occasional disasters, they cannot take away the core of the Central Plains.
As the group ventured deeper, more and more Pokémon appeared around them. Most of them were busy with their work, and occasionally someone would look up at the group but quickly look away.
According to Su Lin's observations, larger groups of elves actually do not differ much from the lifestyle of regular human communities.
The elves also mastered agricultural techniques such as breeding, planting, and forging. Although none of them were top-notch, they at least lived normal lives, and even had a village-like atmosphere.
This is not meant as a derogatory term, but rather as a sense of detachment from the world, a disdain for so-called higher social structures and racial independence.
"My goodness, so many handsome men and beautiful women..."
Jia Zhengyi was dazzled by the sights all around him. He looked left and right, and everywhere he looked were creatures that perfectly matched his aesthetic sense. They were so beautiful that he couldn't help but feel a little restless. He muttered to himself, "If only I could kidnap one of them."
"Sir, elves do not intermarry with outsiders."
Ellie's reminder startled Jia Zhengyi, who looked up, scratched his head awkwardly, and remained silent.
Look at the mess this has made; he even got overheard talking to himself.
Fortunately, Jia Zhengyi was cheerful and quickly found Xiao Linlin to change the subject: "Hey, I think the elves are pretty strange. We've been to two settlements and haven't found any supplies."
"Have you noticed? The elves are so powerful, yet the places they live in are not high-resource areas, and they don't even have the most basic white containers. It's frighteningly clean."
"Yeah?"
Xiao Linlin glanced at Jia Zhengyi. She had noticed this earlier, but she also took the opportunity to ease the awkward atmosphere for Jia Zhengyi: "This may be an arrangement made intentionally by the system. I have always suspected that the system will deliberately arrange the distribution of resources in the game based on the overall situation of the survivors."
"My brother already had Lyanna before entering the game. He had a pure-blooded elf in his hands, yet he encountered a fantasy magic world. That was powerful enough."
“If we were to designate each elf gathering area as a high-resource zone, it would be clearly giving the older brother a free pass, which doesn’t align with the game’s inherent logic.”
Xiao Linlin's analysis startled Jia Zhengyi: "You mean to say that this should have been a high-income area, but it was destroyed by the system? Just to suppress our boss?"
"Yes, that's a possibility, but I have no evidence."
Xiao Linlin nodded, and Jia Zhengyi couldn't help but slap his thigh: "Damn it! This is a bastard's scheme, isn't this deliberately suppressing us? They just can't stand to see us eat more good food, can they!"
"Boss, I think this system is really unfair; it's deliberately targeting us!"
Jia Zhengyi was indignant, but Su Lin's attention was completely elsewhere; he was still studying martial arts manuals and didn't say a word.
However, after Jia Zhengyi finished speaking, Lyanna, who was riding ahead, suddenly stopped.
Jia Zhengyi also sensed something and looked up. He saw more than a dozen elves standing neatly in front of a large circular building. Jia Zhengyi silently counted them and found that there were exactly eighteen!
Eighteen purebloods, members of the Elven Council here! The true rulers!
Among them were both men and women, each with an elegant demeanor and exceptional temperament. Standing together, they formed a beautiful and pleasing sight to behold.
However, the elves around the team members did not think so. After the eighteen purebloods appeared together, there was obvious chaos in the three thousand elf team. Many elves could not help but feel restless and uneasy, and the previous orderliness was completely gone.
Ellie also seemed a little off, and frowned slightly.
"elder sister?"
Xiao Linlin, being observant, took Elle's hand and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"They are very strong."
Ellie lowered her voice.
Every pureblood here is no weaker than Elrere! This is an unexpected situation far beyond what was planned!
This information made Xiao Linlin and Jia Zhengyi somewhat nervous, as they were unsure whether Lyanna could successfully complete the plan.
Just as Xiao Linlin was looking at Lyanna's back and about to say something, the eighteen purebloods in front of her withdrew their gazes from the crowd and turned them back to Lyanna, with two of them turning slightly to the side.
"Dear partner, you are qualified to challenge us. Please come in."
One of the female purebloods spoke softly, her tone as gentle as the wind: "You can now choose any one of us as your opponent, but to be fair, you can only fight one pureblood each day."
One per day?
Lyanna's voice rang out softly. The squad members couldn't see her face, but could hear her calm reply through her straight and beautiful back.
"No need, all of you come at me together, my Holy Spirit is in a hurry."
