Chapter 053 Brave Sperian
Although elves and goblins are a peace-loving race, they are never weak, cowardly, or ignorant of the sufferings of the world.
The longer you live, the more insightful you become.
They are close to nature, integrate into nature, and adapt to nature.
Survival of the fittest is the law of nature.
Because of their strength, they can stand at the top of the forest, and even high-level monsters dare not cross their line.
Friendship is based on peaceful coexistence.
Since the elves haven't had any cubs for a long time, their education is not as complete as that of the fairies.
Adult fairies are very tolerant of the cubs, creating a beautiful and warm environment for them to grow up without worries.
However, this only applies to children under the age of ten.
After the age of ten, goblins typically master two or three languages and possess a strong sense of self and reasoning ability. Adult goblins gradually guide them toward a comprehensive understanding of the world, including the laws of survival in the forest, the social structures of various nations, the customs and folkways of different races, and the sheer diversity of things.
Although it was a little early for the five-year-old to join them on this mission, they had something to ask for, so they had to pay a price.
For example, recognize the cruel side of the world in advance.
The adult fairies waited patiently for the child to calm down. Not only did they not urge him, they also gave him some comfort.
After Budno vomited, he felt weak all over. Anna let him lean on her arms, patted his back gently, and comforted him like a baby.
Ivy held Discio and Angel on his left and right, and told them in a relaxed tone that monsters get hungry and need to eat when they are hungry. Hunting is their instinct. These are just small incidents and there is no need to panic.
With their comfort, the three little guys' faces finally regained some color.
Xier's pale golden eyes turned slightly and looked at Sperian. He was surprised to find that he was neither panicked nor scared to tears. He just tugged at Kumandi's clothes with a pale face and said nothing.
Xier frowned slightly.
Compared to the three frightened children, Sperian seemed too calm. He didn't cry or make a fuss, and was so well-behaved that he was lovable.
Sometimes, venting your emotions is not a bad thing, but holding them in will cause problems.
After listening to Jingjing's words, Shu Li was immersed in his own thoughts and had no idea of Xier's worries.
Why don't Warcraft attack fairies?
That's because this forest is called "Fairy Forest".
The goblins are the rulers of this forest. If the monsters dare to attack the goblins, they will be seeking their own death.
At the beginning, the big stupid bird accidentally took him to the edge of the forest, and found that he had accidentally "stole" the fairy cub. He was so scared that he ran away, not even daring to return to his nest, and fled directly to the Warcraft Forest to hide.
When Mr. Orochi appeared in front of him, he was filled with terrifying aura. If he were not a demon, the grass on his grave would be three feet high by now.
Therefore, there is only one reason why fairies can move freely in the forest, and that is because their race is so powerful that the monsters are afraid of them.
The monsters encountered on this road were actually not of high level, and their sizes were not as big as Mr. Snake. Apart from the hunting scenes being a bit bloody, they did not hinder them.
Shu Li took a few deep breaths and adjusted his mentality.
After being taken care of by the fairy for five years, he lived too comfortably and neglected many problems.
The other world is not as peaceful as his original world.
The black knights I encountered five years ago were brutal and cruel, and they took no human lives.
After learning the common language of the mainland, I learned that the production levels of various countries were low, their thinking was backward, their society was feudal, their classes were clearly divided, and they were still trading in slaves.
The nobles lived in luxury, the common people were poor, the slaves suffered terribly, and injustice was everywhere.
If the people have a good king, they may be able to live and work in peace and contentment; otherwise, they will suffer.
There are thousands of countries, big and small, in the entire Austin continent. From ancient times to the present, wars have never stopped. Every year, some countries perish and some countries rise.
After thousands of years of separation and reunion, countless countries have been submerged in the long river of history, leaving only a few moving poems for future generations.
When these little goblins grow up, they will leave the forest and go to the mainland to gain experience.
If your heart is not strong enough, how can you face the cruelty of the world?
Now when we see the bloody scenes of monsters hunting, we are terrified. If we encounter something even more inhumane in the future, will we flee back to the forest in horror?
That's so embarrassing!
It's a cowardly act!
Since they themselves wanted to go to the Amethyst Tree to pray for branches this time, they should persevere and move forward bravely.
It's just a scene of Warcraft eating, no big deal.
Didn’t he give Mr. Orochi a toothpick a few days ago?
Apparently, subconsciously, he knew that Mr. Orochi was a carnivore that hunted.
Otherwise, will the tooth pick be used as a decoration?
Just because you haven't seen Mr. Big Snake eating, you can't have a filter on him. In essence, he is no different from the monsters you just encountered.
If he can accept eating Mr. Big Snake, why can't he accept being hunted by other monsters?
After calming himself down, Shu Li let go of Jingjing's clothes.
Kumandi looked down and watched him walk towards Ivy and Anna with firm steps.
Shu Li took a few steps and then stood there, looking at his little friend who was huddled in the arms of the adult goblin for comfort. He took out the five-stringed harp he carried with him from his storage ring, and with his nimble fingers, he gently plucked it, and a beautiful melody sounded. He sang in his still childish but powerful voice:
"Beautiful Fairy Orchard
The arrogant Sekon bird appeared
Stole the goblin cub
Thrown into the edge of the forest
Brave Sperian
Not afraid of danger
Determined to cross the forest
Return to the sacred tree..."
When Discio, Angel, and Budno heard the piano music and Shu Li's singing, they all looked up at the same time, their eyes shining.
"...Brave Sperian
Sitting on the head of the demon snake..."
They sang in unison, leaving the adult goblin's embrace and walking towards Shu Li.
"Facing the sunset
Found the direction of the sacred tree
Please keep in mind
The name of the demon snake is
Bazin Burgareth
Bazin Burgareth..."
The four little goblins sang louder and louder, and became more and more excited. Their fear of the monster disappeared with the singing.
After the song was finished, Shu Li continued to pluck the strings and sang it again from the beginning.
"In the beautiful fairy orchard, the arrogant Sek'n bird appeared... Brave Sperion, fearless of danger, is determined to cross the forest and return to the sacred tree..."
The cub's loud voice was heard from the high branches to the bottom of the tree. The hunting beasts heard the name "Bazen Burgareth", tucked their tails and sneaked away.
Xier and the other three adult goblins looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
When they were racking their brains over how to comfort the children, they never expected that the children would eliminate their fear in their own way and arouse their courage with the power of poetry.
Ivy gave a thumbs up to the author of the poem, Kumandi.
Kumandi remained calm, took out his harp and joined the singing and playing.
A clear young voice sounded, and Shu Li turned around in surprise, looking at the top student Jingjing with a smile on his face.
"...Please remember, the name of the demon snake is—Bazin Bulgareth! Bazin Bulgareth!"
In the last sentence, Budno used his lion's roar, and all the birds in the forest were startled and flew away. They flapped their wings and knocked down countless leaves.
"Leaves rain" began to fall overhead, and the goblins laughed heartily.
"You sing so beautifully!" Anna applauded and looked at them tenderly.
Budno danced with joy and twisted his chubby waist, looking completely different from the way he had just been lying on the branch vomiting.
Disceo clenched his fists, flapped his cicada-feather-like wings, flew in front of Xi'er, and said firmly: "Captain, let's keep moving forward!"
The boss is not afraid, so they are not afraid either!
Although Warcraft has an evil side, it also has a good side, and they shouldn't generalize.
"Sperian, I want to be as brave as you!" Angel wiped his face to wipe away the remaining tears.
I was so embarrassed that I actually cried out of fear.
I sang "Brave Sperian" many times, why did I forget it at the critical moment?
Shu Li put away the harp and hugged Angel. "Yes, you will be as brave as me."
Angel is a bit treacherous. He will definitely become a hidden demon when he grows up. It will be difficult to see his weak side again.
After the other children calmed down, Xier asked, "No matter what you encounter on the road ahead, you won't back down?"
“Don’t back down!”
The four goblins shook their heads in unison.
"Okay, then let's continue heading towards the Amethyst Tree." After a pause, Xier said in a low voice, "Whoever starts crying again will be punished to go back and clean the school playground."
“We won’t cry!”
They would rather face the terrifying monsters than clean up the piles of bird droppings on the playground.
Without magic, cleaning the playground is a very, very, very hard job. Every time a goblin is punished to clean the playground, he suffers terribly.
Seeing the child's horrified expression, Ivy couldn't help but laugh.
The corners of Kumandi's mouth also rose slightly.
Anna wanted to hug every little one and rub them hard.
Woo woo woo~~~How can there be such a cute little cub?
The rest of the journey was very smooth. When the goblins encountered hunting beasts, they were no longer afraid. If they were afraid... they would sing "Brave Sperian".
Shu Li started to sing along, but after singing seven or eight times, he decisively shut up.
Singing a song once or twice is motivational, singing it three or four times is courageous, but singing it more than five times is embarrassing.
There were no more scary scenes afterwards. It was obvious that the three little goblins were addicted to singing and they would sing whenever they had the chance.
Two hours later, they arrived at a stream and took a rest.
It's noon, time to eat.
The adult goblins found a large rocky creek under the shade of a tree, set up their tent, and spread out soft blankets for everyone to sit and rest together.
Budno threw himself down on the blanket, too tired to move.
Angel poked his raised butt with his finger and asked, "Aren't you hungry?"
"Hungry~~~~~~~~~~" Budno climbed up painfully, took out a bunch of fruits from the storage ring, and took a big bite.
He didn't eat much for breakfast. He finally managed to get some food on the way, but he vomited it all. He relied on his strong willpower to hold on until now.
He held a fruit in each hand, taking a few bites from the left and then a few bites from the right, eating with great pleasure.
Seeing how he was chewing the fruit, Anna finally understood why the fat boy couldn't lose weight.
Shu Li was worried that he would swallow it, so she reminded him, "Budno, your stomach will hurt if you eat too fast."
Overeating can easily damage your stomach and intestines.
"Yeah, I know..." Budno said vaguely, slowing down his eating.
Seeing that he had listened, Shu Li took out a wooden box from her storage ring.
When he learned that he had to bring his own food for the mission, he specially bought six wooden boxes to use as lunch boxes.
A layer of fresh large leaves is placed in the box, and then various washed fruits, cooked bird eggs, edible vegetable leaves, crispy baked biscuits, sweet cheese, etc. are neatly placed in it. It is a balanced combination, rich in nutrition, and very appetizing.
Ivy saw his food box and raised his eyebrows in praise: "Wow, not bad!"
The little guy is quite resourceful. He knows to use one box for each meal, ensuring he eats enough without wasting food.
Seeing him staring at his food box, Shu Li thought he was greedy, so she took out a shortbread and handed it to him.
"Uh." Ivy blinked and shook his hand. "No, no, you keep it for yourself. I have some."
As he spoke, he took out some baked shortbread from his storage bag and began to eat it slowly.
Shu Li put the baked biscuits back into the lunch box and ate the fruit first.
The water in the kettle was finished while I was on the road, so now I can only eat fruits to quench my thirst.
After flying for a whole morning, everyone was starving, and even the adult goblins sped up their eating.
After Kumandi finished his meal, he took his water bottle and flew towards the stream.
Shu Li saw this and called out to him, "Kumandi, wait a moment."
Kumandi flapped her dark purple wings behind her and looked back at him.
Shu Li took out a stove and kettle from his storage ring, walked outside the tent, and placed them on the rocks. "I think it's better to boil your own drinking water."
The water they usually use is water elements condensed from the air by water magic, and is relatively clean. However, the stream water in the wild contains microorganisms and some harmful substances, and drinking it is not good for the body.
Fairies are close to nature and don't care about this. When they run out of drinking water they carry with them, they directly draw water from streams, lakes, dew, etc.
I had walked this Kumandi route many times and knew clearly that there was a clear stream flowing along the way, which was convenient for replenishing supplies, so I didn't bring much drinking water.
Now called by the cub, she flew back to the stone and waited for his next move.
Shu Li opened the kettle lid, took out his magic wand, cleared his throat, and chanted a spell: "Great Water Goddess Hildani Geti, I am Sperien of the Fairy Forest. I beg you to command the element of water to gather around me... and bring me clean drinking water..."
He pointed the magic wand at the kettle and waited for a moment, but not a drop of water appeared.
He was sweating profusely.
Failed... failed?
Sit said that spellcasters must learn to be flexible. The prefixes of spells are similar, but the suffixes can be changed freely.
So he changed the second half of the Water Ball spell.
However, after waiting for most of the day, nothing happened.
Being stared at by so many eyes, Shu Li was filled with embarrassment. "Well... let me try again."
In front of Jingjing, the top student, he recited the spell again seriously.
This time, the great water god heard his prayer, and the water element finally condensed.
"drop--"
Small drops of water like raindrops fell into the kettle.
"Pfft..." Ivy couldn't help laughing.
Shu Li's face flushed red, and she felt so ashamed that she wanted to dig her toes into the ground.
Anna stretched out her fingers to twist Ivy's arm and glared at him: "How can you laugh at a child?"
It's quite impressive that a five-year-old kid, who has just learned magic, can apply what he has learned to other situations. Although it's only a small drop of water, it's better than nothing, isn't it?
As expected of the little elf blessed by the king, she is brave and smart, so lovable.
Ivy's arm was twisted, and he opened his mouth to scream, but suddenly received Xi'er's death stare and shut up obediently.
"Sperien, I'll help you!" Budno held his magic wand and chanted towards the kettle, "Great water god Hildani Geti, I am Budno from the Fairy Forest. I beg you to command the element of water to gather around me... and bring me clean drinking water..."
“Tick-tock—”
Another small drop of water.
"Huh?" Budno scratched his head, confused, "I don't think I can do it either."
Two young water magic apprentices died.
Disio is a fire type and Angel is a light type, they have the will but not the ability.
Shu Li looked at Kumandi apologetically, "I'm sorry, I... my magic is terrible."
Kumandi said nonchalantly, "It's okay."
He is a wind element and can't help.
Shu Li turned to look at the three adult fairies. Was there a water magician among them?
Xier received the child's pleading look and said calmly, "I am a light element."
A small flame appeared at Ivy's fingertips. "I'm a fire element."
Anna pinched a seed and winked at Shu Li: "I am a wood element."
Shu Li opened his mouth in surprise.
It turns out that there is not a single proper water magician in their team.
No wonder Kumandi went to the stream to fetch water. It turned out that he didn't count on him and Budno, two rookies.
He was so dejected that even the hairpin that had been transformed from a small flower crown had lost its luster.
If he had known this earlier, he would have brought more water.
"Oh, don't be sad, little one!" Ivy reached into his storage bag, took out a large bucket of water, and placed it generously on the stone. "Here, feel free to use it!"
When you go out, how can you not bring some drinking water?
Shu Li's stove finally found a use and he was able to boil water.
He sat in front of the stove, waiting for the water to boil, and the afternoon breeze blew, making him drowsy.
“Sizzle—”
He thought the water was boiling, and he perked up and was about to turn off the stove. Suddenly, the huge head of a strange insect appeared in front of him, only ten centimeters away from his nose.
Shu Li's pupils trembled in horror.
