Chapter 140 The Three Little Ones Waiting
Dizio: "Sperian has disappeared."⊙_⊙
Budno: "He was eaten by the mother tree!!!" (=°Д°=)
Angel: "No, he took the initiative to fly into the trunk of the mother tree." (||o_o)
The three little elves looked at each other, all doubting what they saw. They rubbed their eyes at the same time and looked towards the mother tree again, but there was still no sign of Sperian.
Desio couldn't believe it.
Ten minutes ago, Angel said that the boss was a little strange, and he thought Angel was making a fuss. He never expected that after they followed him secretly, they would see such a shocking scene.
The eldest brother, who was supposed to go to the Elf King's room to study, suddenly turned small and turned back, quietly returned to the courtyard, then dived into the trunk of the mother tree and disappeared.
how so?
Dizio said anxiously, "Let's go over there and take a look."
He flew towards the mother tree first, and Angel and Budno followed quickly.
The three goblins flew to where Shu Li disappeared and tried to crash into the tree trunk.
"Ouch..." Budno covered his head, which hurt from the collision. "Why can't we get in?"
"Idiot!" Dizio patted the hard, rough bark. "It's so hard, there's no way I can get through it!"
"But...why was Sperian able to get in?" Budno muttered aggrievedly.
Angel flew around the massive trunk of the Mother Tree, flapping and slapping it repeatedly. He returned to his friends and speculated, "The Elven Mother Tree has existed for tens of thousands of years. It must possess magical powers. I think... Sperian and the Mother Tree may have reached some kind of agreement."
Dixie frowned: "Some kind of agreement, what kind of agreement?"
Budno had a flash of inspiration: "It's a contract!"
"Yes," Angel said. "Sit taught us before that there are many different types of contracts, some good and some bad. We must be careful when signing contracts with others, otherwise we will not only suffer losses, but also become enslaved."
Disio asked worriedly, "Then...what kind of contract did Sperian make with the Mother Tree?"
Will the boss be enslaved by the mother tree?
Angel shook his head. "I don't know. When Sperian comes back, we'll ask him."
Budno held his cheek and asked, "When will Sperian come back?"
Angel folded his wings and landed on the protruding roots of the mother tree. "As long as we stay here, we can definitely wait for Sperian."
"Okay!" Desio and Budno sat on his left and right.
Three little goblins sat in a row on the tree roots in a daze.
After ten minutes, they started to get bored.
"How about... let's go back to the room first?" Budno suggested.
"No!" Dizio immediately objected, "If I fall asleep, I won't be able to wait for the boss!"
Budno sighed, "Okay!"
Angel suggested, "Let's read a book while we wait!"
He took out a book and a cylindrical magic lamp from the storage ring and turned on the reading mode.
Desio and Budno thought this method was good and immediately followed suit.
Soon, three small spots of light appeared side by side on the roots of the mother tree, and from time to time there was a slight sound of turning pages.
In a room opposite the mother tree, the Elf King stood in front of the window, staring out with his green eyes without blinking.
Ilio stood behind him, using his external perception to "see" the three night-reading goblins under the mother tree, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
The night before yesterday, Sperien suddenly slipped out of the window early and secretly looked for the mother tree, which immediately attracted the attention of the elves.
However, the king did not give any instructions, and the other elves could only wait and see.
In the early morning, the little guy returned safely, and the elves were really relieved.
The next morning, the four goblins told him that they wanted to stay in the Elf Kingdom for a few more days to ask Danlov about magic, and he felt that something was fishy.
As expected, Sperian went into the trunk of the mother tree early for two consecutive nights and did not return until after midnight.
In the past, it only took about ten to twenty minutes to purify the branches of the mother tree. Why has it exceeded four or five hours in recent days?
Ilio was as confused as the other elves, and even more worried that the little creature might get into trouble if he stayed in the Dark Elf territory for too long. He wanted to ask the king if he could get any information from the mother tree. However, the king remained calm and offered no response, so he could only wait and see.
However, to Ilio's surprise, the other three goblins discovered Sperion's secret.
Angel has been a little elf who observes details since he was young. As he grows older, he becomes more and more able to see the big picture from small details.
It's not surprising that he discovered Sperian's secret.
"King, is it okay if they find out?" Ilio asked the Elf King respectfully.
It was an open secret in the Elven Kingdom that Sperien purified the Mother Tree and stole its fruits, but only a few fairies on the Sacred Tree side knew about it.
"It's okay." said the Elf King.
"Do you need me to urge those three little ones to go back to their rooms and sleep?" Ilio asked again.
Waiting outside until midnight can easily lead to catching a cold.
"Don't alarm them."
The Elf King withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked to the wicker chair by the window. Like the three little elves, he took a book and read it in the moonlight.
“…Yes.” Ilio sighed inwardly.
The king is so indulgent towards Sperian.
As long as it was related to Sperian, he would not interfere or ask questions, allowing it to develop freely. Even if he knew that he would be in danger, he would silently protect him and help him at the critical moment.
The king not only indulged Sperion, but also spoiled him excessively.
Whatever Sperian decided to do, the king would acquiesce to him.
For example, five years ago, Sperian was cursed and wanted to personally deliver a letter to the magician who cast the curse. The king agreed and made an exception to allow the underage goblin to travel to the human world.
There are many similar things. Ilio has lived for more than five hundred years, but he can't see through the king's actions at all.
Of course, he firmly defended all the king's decisions.
Because since Sperian came, the future of the elves has been continued.
Elio bowed slightly to the Elf King and quietly left the room.
The Elf King continued reading without turning the page for a long time.
Shu Li, who was teleported from the root system of the mother tree to the desert, was now hiding in the tree roots on the exposed surface and eating melons.
Today's adventure team was lucky enough to find an oasis again.
This oasis was larger than yesterday's, with lush trees and abundant water. It was now occupied by a level 6 monster. If the adventure team wanted to enter the oasis, they had to compete with the level 6 monster for territory.
When Shu Li came over, the battle was almost over.
The sixth-level Warcraft was beaten to death by the adventure team, and its body was carefully dissected. With the presence of goblins and dwarves, all the useful "parts" of the Warcraft were removed.
The horns, scales, claws, tail, meat, internal organs, skeleton, etc. were divided into several parts and distributed to the five members of the adventure team.
The poor level six monster was fully utilized, leaving no trace of it.
Shu Li observed a moment of silence for Warcraft.
Speaking of the "melon", the cause was that the white magician wanted the horn of the monster, but the horn was in the hands of the dark elf who made the greatest contribution.
Therefore, the white magician wanted to exchange other treasures with the dark elves for the monster horns.
The dark elves used all kinds of tricks to tease the white magician in an inappropriate way.
The white magician retorted with a blank expression.
The other members of the adventure team looked left and right, and since neither of them was easy to deal with, they quietly did their own things, pretending to be very busy, and did not dare to get involved in their quarrel.
Shu Li came here to eavesdrop, not to listen to people quarreling, especially those quarrels that were meaningless.
The White Mage said coldly, "Morrisi, put away your dirty thoughts. Now that this mission is over, we will go our separate ways."
The dark elf crossed his arms and asked with a grin, "Saidler, tell me, what dirty thoughts do I have?"
The White Mage said, "You know it clearly in your heart."
The dark elf raised his eyebrows: "If you don't tell me, how can I know that my thoughts are dirty?"
The White Mage launched a map attack: "Dark Elves are indeed the most shameless race in the world."
The dark elf waved his hand: "Don't confuse me with those dark elves. I am different from them."
The White Mage sneered, "I can't see the difference."
The dark elf said, "I don't kill innocent people, I don't cheat, I live a clean life, I'm loyal in love, and I've survived to this day by my own ability. There's no other dark elf as unique as me."
Shu Li, who was hiding in the tree roots, agreed very much with the white magician's words.
There is no other dark elf as shameless as this!
Efit is the unique dark elf, there is no other like him.
The white magician was obviously shocked by the dark elf's shamelessness. He didn't react for a while, and after a while, he said, "Whether you are well or not, it has nothing to do with me."
"How can it be irrelevant?" The dark elf approached the white magician and lowered his voice, "It's about your sexual happiness—"
The next second, the dark elf was chased by a small fireball, and the white magician swung his magic wand mercilessly.
After three days of observation, Shu Li roughly guessed that the dark elves had ulterior motives towards the white magician.
He lived in the original world for eighteen years and traveled to the other world for fifteen years. He was no longer surprised by the attraction between people of the same sex.
Fairies and elves can marry same-sex people, and he has participated in many weddings.
But he never thought that it was possible to fall in love with people of different races and beliefs?
White mages are humans who believe in the God of Light.
Dark elves are elves contaminated by darkness and believe in the god of darkness.
If one day there were another war between light and darkness, how would they choose their side?
Moreover, the Dark Elf was too frivolous, and every word he said was open to question. Who knew if he had other intentions towards the White Mage?
Judging from the current developments, the White Mage remains unmoved by the Dark Elves' explicit and implicit hints.
Shu Li hoped that he would stick to his original intention and not be deceived by the sweet words of the dark elves.
He touched his ears and sighed.
I'm just eavesdropping, so why should I care about the emotional issues of a stranger?
It seems that I won’t hear any useful information today.
Shu Li patted his butt and left with a disappointed look on his face, then went to Wanaku to purify the branches of the mother tree and the fruits.
Fruit number three has been almost purified and can be moved tomorrow.
Shu Li was excited. After finishing his work, he followed the root system of the mother tree and returned to the Elf Courtyard.
Shu Li came back an hour earlier than usual today. He carefully crawled out of the trunk of the mother tree, released his perception, and explored the surroundings.
Suddenly, his body froze and he looked in shock at the three little goblins sleeping soundly together under the tree.
They leaned against the thick tree roots, huddled together tightly. Probably to avoid the cold night wind, each of them covered themselves with a small blanket, wrapping themselves tightly.
Angel: ZZZZ~~
Disio: ZZZZ~~
Budno: ZZZZ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shu Li: (*￣０￣)
