What is Old Elvish?
I don't understand.
Hiccup~
The elves suddenly suffered a disaster, and Lin Jun was also extremely sad.
It's a pity that I'm just a straw mushroom and can't sneak into the Elf King's City to attend the funeral ceremony of the Elf King Auriel. It's really a regret in my mushroom life.
During the turmoil, Puji saved little Ruier.
Riel followed the Pujis through the underground web tunnels, and finally naturally ended up in the Puji dungeon.
There are many reasons for bringing Riel here.
For example, Riel has already seen Puji's true abilities and the underground web tunnels, so it's not convenient to just put it back like that.
For example, Lin Jun had long been planning to bring back one or two elves to reflect the multiculturalism and inclusive spirit of the mushroom garden, and to satisfy his own collecting habit.
But in the final analysis, the fact is that Lin Jun was too lazy to make the medicine himself.
The pharmacy of Puji House has opened and business is pretty good. Then Lin Jun experienced the life of a worker who works overtime every day.
I'm the boss, but I still have to meet targets every day. Isn't this a waste of my job?!
The priests of the Mushroom Clan's Spark and the Lizardman Tribe can indeed make medicine, but their methods are full of the casualness of primitive tribes - the amount of materials depends entirely on the feel, the efficacy of the finished product varies, and the quality is comparable to opening a blind box.
This is purely a self-made method, and if they are forced to change their style, they won't even be able to produce such an unstable finished product.
In comparison, although Ruier, who was trained by the old elf himself, has little experience, his techniques and processes are standardized, which far surpasses those unconventional ones. He is exactly the high-quality... talent that Lin Jun urgently needs.
The opportunity was so good that I brought her here.
There was just one small problem. Due to the language barrier, Ruier seemed a little uncomfortable with the environment.
…
"Little elf~ Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I really don't mean any harm~"
Norris put his hands with ten-centimeter claws behind his back and coaxed the trembling Riel in the most gentle voice, while trying hard to open his mouth and try to make a friendly smile.
However, looking at the lizardman in front of him, staring at him with his fangs shining and his mouth almost drooling, Riel buried his face in the body of the big mushroom next to him and muttered in Elvish with a tearful voice: "Don't eat me... Riel has very little meat... Big mushroom, save me!"
Looking at Riel's terrified look, Norris felt that he was the most hurt one, but he still had to continue trying to comfort him.
Finally, in response to the boss's evaluation of "waste", Norris had to invite the language master in the Mushroom Garden, Yellow Book, to come over.
The Yellow Book is indeed a professional evil book that is used to mislead people. Even without using those tricks, it only took a few minutes of communication to successfully calm Riel down.
The Yellow Book even helped the uncommunicative Norris to clarify that he only looked scary but actually had a kind heart.
"But...but his claws are so long!" Riel was still frightened by those ten ten-centimeter-long claws.
Did you notice it has no tail?
Rui'er nodded. She didn't see any tail on Norris.
[Actually, he used to have a beautiful big tail, but...]
As the yellow book continued to tell the story, Riel's eyes gradually changed when he looked at Norris.
After listening to the story, she mustered up her courage, stretched out her slightly trembling little hand, and gently patted Norris's scaly head as he squatted on the ground.
Now she felt that this lizardman who was willing to share his tail with his companions when food was scarce should not be a bad guy!
Norris was responsible for taking care of the children.
Interestingly, if we go by age, Riel is actually a few years older than Norris.
However, due to the difference in mental maturity between the races, and the fact that they had lived in the secluded Elf Forest for a long time, Riel's every move was still like that of a child, while Norris was already a mature lizardman who had rejected the werewolf's advances more than a dozen times.
In addition to recruiting a new member for the mushroom garden, Lin Jun naturally would not forget the SSS-level mission that he had worked so hard to take on.
He decisively asked Aidin and Inanna to find out the current situation of the adventure team.
The most crucial thing right now is to find out the attitudes of those diamond-level adventurers towards the artifact fragments.
If they only regarded it as a valuable prop, Lin Jun could get it through exchange in the name of Aidin or Inanna.
Gold coins and S-level magic crystals can be negotiated. If all else fails, you can ask the wealthy woman Inanna to pay first. I believe the other party will not be blinded by greed and ask for an exorbitant price.
But if they think that the fragments of the Yesheng wood core have some irreplaceable value and insist on not letting go, then it will be a bit tricky.
After all, facing the temptation of levelless skills, Lin Jun is determined to obtain this artifact fragment.
…
The development of fungal mats in the human world is now in good momentum. It is no longer limited to the three cities, but continues to spread steadily to surrounding cities.
Even with the deliberate promotion of human officials, a fungal blanket has extended directly to a castle near the northwest front.
The first batch of Puji Division troops recruited by humans have been transferred there to garrison.
However, since this fungal carpet was completely laid by humans themselves, there is really only a layer of fungal carpet on the surface, and Puji's underground network tunnel did not follow up.
To be honest, Lin Jun was also very curious about how much role the human Puji Master could play in a real war.
Although it should perform well in theory, no one can guarantee its actual effectiveness.
He sincerely hoped that these Puji masters could perform better. After all, their performance was directly related to whether the fungal blanket could successfully expand its territory.
Unfortunately, although the castle where the Puji Division was stationed was close to the front line, it did not directly confront the demon army.
In fact, even the Puji divisions themselves felt that they might not have the chance to participate in the war.
Whether it is the northwest front guarded by the Sword Saint or the northern high castle fortress commanded by the Duke of Alama, the demon army they are facing has recently seemed to have low morale.
They seldom took the initiative to attack, and most of the time they just camped and confronted each other. Even if they occasionally launched an attack, it seemed to be perfunctory, and they looked like they had no intention of fighting at all.
The Duke of Alama turned from defense to offense and won several victories in succession.
Many Puji divisions discussed privately, regretting that they did not catch up with the good times and missed the opportunity to make military achievements.
Confined to the second-line fortress by the fungal blanket, they could only watch the other troops' frequent victories and felt extremely envious.
This war of aggression launched by the demons was about to end with humans successfully resisting the foreign enemies, but it started well but ended badly.
