Sivian grinned, his grayish-green skin contrasting sharply with his densely packed teeth, giving him a strangely malevolent look.
“Great Sivian, great Oroc, I am about to become the savior of all Oroc people—everyone will remember the name 'Sivian'! Everyone, everyone!! Aoki, my friend, come with me, come with me to complete this perfect experiment, we can do it—”
He reached out his hand, and Aoki then saw that the other's skin, hidden beneath the robe, had begun to turn into wood, the pulsating blood vessels beneath the skin had transformed into plant vines, and the stone chips on the stone chair statue had begun to crumble, revealing the grayish-white skin beneath.
—They were two elven girls whose blood had already been drained by the vines; they were not "statues".
"You're using elf blood to cultivate plants?!"
Aoki's pupils contracted. He wasn't stupid. He originally thought that the other party was just audacious enough to sell elves to some nobles with disgusting fetishes, but he never expected that Sivian would actually dare to kill an elf!
He took a step back.
"Oh, elves, I forgot they are the darlings of nature, the followers of the goddess of nature, they are pure and noble, and they also possess the long lifespan that all Orok people dream of."
Sivian showed Aoki his petrified arm, his eyes gleaming with excitement:
"See that? Feeding the rose with the flesh and blood of elves, how beautiful it is! If all the Orok people drink its juice at the carnival in three days, we can live forever like plants—I'm a genius, my dear friend. I know you've consumed culinary dread. We're the same, aren't we? Come, join us."
Aoki's ears twitched. He heard footsteps outside the door, the sounds of the guards inside the castle.
"good."
He lowered his eyes slightly and slowly took a step forward:
"I want to see those elves first."
Sivian seemed quite satisfied with Aoki's cooperation. He reached out and twisted the candlestick under the table. With a "click-clack" sound, the entire large wooden table sank deep, revealing a dark hole in the ground.
"Come on, let's go see those cute little guys."
Sivian smiled.
...
...
"You lost the seeds of the fairy tree???"
Overland nearly lost his composure, covering his face and taking several deep breaths before barely accepting this tragic reality:
"By the God of Nature, what have you done? You should have returned the seeds of the Elf Tree to the Elf Royal Court before the next tide arrives—"
"Don't worry, I've already found out the whereabouts of the Elf Tree Seed in the past two days."
Laura downed a whole glass of ale and said confidently:
"The Elf Tree Seed was purchased by Grand Duke Sivian as a jewel and sewn onto his jeweled crown. I heard that Grand Duke Sivian will also participate in the parade at this year's Oroc Carnival, where he will show everyone the newly cultivated Crimson Rose. The Oroc people have always been close to elves, so I will contact the Grand Duke privately and ask him to return the Elf Tree Seed—of course, I will exchange it for the 47-star ingredient 'Earth Core Mushroom' that I captured this time."
"This plan sounds feasible, much more reliable than your idea of stealing tree seeds on the black market during the chaos."
Xu Milu yawned and said lazily:
"Do you want to participate in the parade in a couple of days? According to Oroq tradition, everyone can decorate their own float as they please, and even outsiders can sell their homemade food to the islanders. If you're done with your work, you can try the food I've prepared. Oroq's ingredients have given me a lot of inspiration, and I plan to make some desserts with fresh flowers—"
"Your food must be delicious—perhaps I can wait until after the carnival to visit Grand Duke Sivian?"
Lola seemed hesitant, and Overland, unable to bear it any longer, stood up, grabbed her, and headed out.
"You'd better deal with everything before the Queen finds out, otherwise even I can't keep it a secret for you—God of Nature, what are you thinking about all day long?"
"Overer! You bastard! You scoundrel! Let me go!"
Lola struggled in vain and could only look at Xu Milu with a reluctant expression, but in the end she was dragged away by the tall male elf.
...
...
"Given Lola's unlucky nature, I have a feeling this matter couldn't have been resolved so smoothly."
Xu Milu complained for a moment, then picked up the beer on the table and took a sip. The slightly bitter sparkling beer had a refreshing taste and produced a lot of foam in her mouth. It was icy cold and refreshing, making it an absolute must-have for cooling off in the summer.
[Host, the new helmets have been delivered to the players. Currently, ten players can log in to the game. Should we issue a game announcement?]
Xiao Qi reminded Xu Milu.
Xu Milu took a total of ten White Jade Immortal Lotus roots from Nezha. Before the game test, only five game helmets were given away. After two days of player testing, the game system has gradually improved, and she plans to give away the remaining five game helmets as well.
[Game Announcement: The Oroq Flower Carnival begins tomorrow at 9:00 AM and ends the following day at 9:00 PM. During the event, the map teleportation function will be available for a limited time. Players can choose to teleport to Oroq Island to participate in activities such as "Float Parade," "Cooking Dishes," and "Purchasing Ingredients." Many more gameplay options are available for players to explore. Screenshot and screen recording functions are now available. Our company will develop more game features in the future, so please stay tuned.]
