When Nostradamus found Joshua, the soldiers were drinking with the incarnation of the nature teacher in the underground dome of the Wanjie sacrifice hall.

"Elves are a race whose blood roots are easy to change. In the long past, our ancestors were influenced by the father of nature to become elves, and then adapted to the environment of the forest. Perhaps because of this, when elves left the forest and went to other areas, they would easily evolve into a constitution suitable for the local environment."

Garanord was wearing a navy blue petal dress. Although she was holding a wine glass, it was honey water in it. It seemed that she was talking with Joshua about the problems related to blood transformation. Now she was sighing: "forest spirit, plain spirit, northern spirit, distant sea spirit... And the dark spirit who just returned a while ago, Each of them is the result of the rapid changes in the local environment

"The cause of this mutation, if found, would be a blessing for all races." On one side, Joshua listened silently. When the nature teacher finished, he nodded and said, "the adaptability of elves is indeed the best in the world of mirov. No wonder they are the first race to colonize the multiverse."

"That's all in the past. Now we can only shrink to the far south." Smiling and shaking his head, Garan Nord turned his head and looked at Nostradamus standing by. Then he said with a smile, "ah, here comes the master."

"Of course I will."

Forced to smile at the nature teacher, Nostradamus turned his head, forced to change his expression, and then said to Joshua with a straight face: "count Radcliffe, do you know, you just..."

"I solved the problem of downtime in Wanjie sacrifice hall."

Put down the wine cup, Joshua simple reply: "elite team now in the world coordinates in my hand."

"Cough - OK... OK." All of a sudden, Nostradamus's momentum of asking questions was one of the vent: "I knew that although you seem to have no brain, you are still organized... Where are they now?"

As far as possible, he didn't pay attention to the nature teacher's smile and Joshua's expression of doubt. The old mage went to the table where they were and built a chair with magic to sit down. Nostradamus didn't know whether it was to bring up the topic or really urgent, so he asked in a hurry: "now is not the time to hesitate, Who can doubt if they are still alive now! Where are the world coordinates? If you want to save it, hurry up

"Still alive... Not in great danger for the time being. Although I can't connect the steel force, I can at least make sure that the repair light column hasn't been destroyed. "

Joshua nodded, then shook his head: "the problem is, I know the coordinates of 1200 years ago, now the world is turbulent, God knows that the world is not in its original position, rashly looking for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

What's more, because of the time expansion effect, the 1200 years of mirov's world may be equivalent to the thousands of years at the edge of the world's Star River - thousands of years, which is enough for a group of primitive people to use stone tools to drink blood and become civilized people who can fly out of the atmosphere.

"It's better to look for it than not."

Smell speech, Nostradamus know the problem, so he just sighed: "after all, I made the return letter to mark the problem, if these little guys encounter something bad... Really uneasy."

Joshua understood the feeling.

Most of the legends of McCullough's world don't match up with the usual sense of "good people", but there is no exception. Everyone has a sense of responsibility. Although most of this sense of responsibility is only for their own clan and their own forces, it is enough.

"I'm here mainly to ask the nature teacher if I can borrow the star map stored in the" tree of the world "... Now, it's probably the seedling of the tree of the world."

Joshua calmly explained to Nostradamus: "most of the star maps stored in the Wanjie sacrificial hall are wrong. There is a time gap of a thousand years. Although the transmission is possible, it is not helpful to find people. On the contrary, it is the star map sent by the father of nature some time ago. Although there are some errors, it is generally the star map of the recent period, which has been revised. "

"By comparing the two star maps, we can find the track of the Star River motion, and then find the world coordinates we need - as long as your natural tutor is willing to..."

"Is there anything to refuse? Originally, you brought back the world tree." In this regard, Garan Nord helplessly drank a mouthful of honey water, shook his head and said with a smile: "it's just such a small matter. It's a little help. What's more, with count Radcliffe in your relationship, if you like, I will agree to anything more excessive. "

At this point, the nature teacher gave a smile and raised his glass to Joshua.

"Is it?" However, in the shocked expression of Nostradamus, Joshua suddenly frowned. He raised his glass and clinked it with the nature tutor, and said with a smile: "in this case, there are three legends who are going to look for those lost little guys. They will be flattered."Garanord: "eh?"

Just as the three legendary giants at the other end of time and space are ready to set out.

On the edge of the world, inside a bright underground cave, among the elves.

"This is my home!"

With a neutral, not like a girl's straightforward voice echoing in the cave, Prester followed Sue's steps and entered each other's home.

Although it is said to be home, in fact, it is just a relatively large ventilation cave around the root of the mother tree of life.

After walking through a short corridor, Prester found that there are a lot of gentle magic in the caves around the roots of the mother tree, which can promote the development and growth of all kinds of creatures, and even make them obtain extraordinary natural affinity - just like most elves.

Perhaps this is the truth of the elves' affinity to nature. It is not the inheritance of blood, but the influence of living environment.

But it's meaningless to think so much, because the study of the customs of the alien elves can be postponed a little. Today, it's sur who invited him to his home.

Speaking of this, I have to say what happened not long ago after Prester talked with the deer crown elves.

After knowing that the alien spirits resisted the chaos erosion by concentrating the vast majority of chaos erosion on a few people, killing them and eliminating them completely, Prester understood why these spirits had not improved in technology after so long.

Think about it.

A tribe is well-off in food and clothing, comfortable in living environment, no natural enemies around, no contradiction in internal spiritual network, and no curiosity about unknown things because of sharing knowledge and information. All technologies are enough.

It sounds too much, but is this really a perfect start to the development of civilization?

The answer, of course, is No.

Too perfect an environment, on the contrary, will make civilization stagnate, especially if this perfect environment is still an isolated island.

There are a lot of aborigines living on the island in the far south and far sea. These aborigines living in the tropics are also the survivors who came out of the shelter a thousand years ago. They can spend a comfortable year fishing and picking fruits without much hard work.

However, they are also the survivors who came out of the shelter. The civilization on the continent of mirov has developed into the void and multiverse. The aborigines are still the aborigines of the island. They still live a comfortable life, like monkeys. They even didn't invent the wheel.

And these elves in the different world, not only do they have no motivation for development, they even have no internal contradictions, because their spirits are connected, they can feel sadness and indignation, and all of them are united, so that there is no division in the millennium. Up to now, they are all OK, not unable to develop, It's just that the development is slow, but the most terrible thing is that the way for the elves to get rid of alien diseases is to sacrifice the strong in the clan voluntarily.

Yes, everyone's spirit is linked together, so the strong are willing to sacrifice, and the weak feel sad and revered from the heart. But when the word "strong" itself means "sacrifice", does anyone really want to be strong? Everyone doesn't mind sacrifice, but naturally they will not go against their natural nature, become stronger voluntarily, and then die, right?

In such a world, even after thousands of years, the society of Elves will never change.

Unless, there is an outsider, break this already fixed samsara.

"Prest, what are you thinking?"

Priestley, who is sighing silently in his heart, suddenly feels a burst of heat coming from his ear. He quickly turns his head back and sees that Sur is looking at him with a puzzled face: "you said you wanted to come to my house to have a look, but how did you get there, but you are in a daze?"

"Cough... Thinking about something."

Priestly can't help but feel embarrassed, and then pretends to look around naturally.

This time, it's true that Prester offered to go to sur's house to have a look. The main purpose is to confirm the living habits and technical level of the alien elves. Generally speaking, it's still to observe the situation and collect information. Ordinary elves don't easily let Prester, an outsider, into the house. On the contrary, it's Sur, who knows himself well, even if Prester doesn't mention it, She would invite each other to come and have a seat.

After several days of communication and contact, sur and Prester are very familiar, so in the face of each other's request to "want to see the fairy cave", the fairy girl agreed without hesitation.Taking advantage of the girl's kindness, Prester can't help but feel ashamed, but because of this, he takes it more seriously.

The hall of the whole underground cavern is about 150 square meters, with an average height of 340 cm. It is very wide and has no narrow feeling at all.

On both sides of the hall, there are several rooms. According to sur's warm explanation, Prester knows that there are warehouses, clothing and equipment storage rooms, and storage rooms for various tools, such as fishing nets and agricultural shovels. Everyone's room is also separate. Inside, there is a magic array to adjust the temperature and air, which depends on the magic of the mother tree of life.

The life of the elves is more comfortable than expected. You can see that there are some primitive tool tables and utensils in the wide hall. It should be sur's father, the place where the antler elves usually mix magic potions and make magic wands and arrows. Even on the right side of the hall, you can see a huge fish box with many colorful fish in it, Beautiful looking fish and shells.

The fish box is made of rough glass, which should be made by some strong people with their own strength.

It's just strange that the fish in the fish box are very sick. They don't move very much. Some of them even turn their eyes and turn their belly up.

"Well? Do you like fish? "

Noticing Prester's expression, Sur, who was putting his net into the storage room, showed a proud smile: "ha ha, I caught all the fish in this tank! Isn't it beautiful? Unfortunately, they don't like my father. Even if my father made a fish tank for me, he still doesn't think these fish are beautiful. "

At this point, sur stepped forward. The fairy girl bent down and put her hand on the fish tank. Unfortunately, she said, "the color is so gorgeous and looks so good... But why don't they understand dad?"

"The flowers are so beautiful, the deer are so lively, the trees are tall, and the grass is delicate... Just this forest is so colorful, which makes people never tire of seeing... But when we cross a mountain, there is a brand new and equally beautiful scenery. Why does my father always say that this is meaningless?"

At this point, sur's eyes were a little dim, and there was a mist in his beautiful big eyes.

Prester looked into sur's eyes. Most of the pure blood elves have golden green eyes, just like the grassland in the sun. It's very beautiful... For a moment, priestly, whose original cultural level was limited to the extraordinary power, couldn't find any adjectives, and subconsciously looked at it for several seconds.

"No way."

But very soon, Prester realized that this was not the time to think about this... Calm down, he secretly took out a black, inconspicuous metal bead from his arms, and then pretended not to pay attention to it, so that it fell to the ground. When the bead touched the ground, it immediately stretched out a lot of mechanical tentacles, like insects, and quickly made a hole, Deep into the soil.

In the distance, the four members of the elite exploration team, who are patiently waiting for their team leader to take action in the cave, cheered: "it's a success! The captain made it

"The energy stored in the miniature investigation puppet can be excavated more than 500 meters away. We are too far away from the mother tree of life here. 500 meters is not enough."

"But the residence of the elves is different. The root of the mother tree of life is the pillar of their cave. We can soon collect the data of the mother tree of the different world, and then judge how serious the chaos infection is in this land! By the way, you can also collect special information about the mother tree of alien life, and then you can sell spirits a large amount of exchange points! "

"It seems that the captain has not forgotten the business." Wiping a sweat, the master touched the staff in his hand and joked: "I thought he would indulge in chatting with the fairy girl and forget his task."

"It's said to be a beautiful girl. In fact, the other person's age may be older than our grandmother." Said the clergyman objectively.

But the knight is not willing to say: "say what - the age of the spirit, that can call age?"

Just as the clergymen and knights began to argue about the topic of "how old can an elf be a girl", Sur, who was a little sad, completely regained his spirit.

"Well, these fish are beautiful, but they always die faster."

Patting the fish tank, sur sighed deeply, then shook his head discontentedly and said, "I spent most of my time fishing them up. As a result, none of them gave me face, and I would die in seven or eight days at most - no way. Although it's so beautiful, it can only be made into braised fish or grilled fish..."

Then the fairy girl swallowed, He showed a "sad" expression.

After confirming that he had finished the task, priestly let go and turned his attention to the fish tank, looking at the sick fish.Just by sniffing and smelling the water, Prester, an experienced fish, immediately figured out why the fish would die.

——Nonsense, sea fish with fresh water, can live seven or eight days has been regarded as high magic world of fish vitality!

Looking at all kinds of sea fish struggling to survive in the aquarium, Prester looked at them with sympathy - at the same time, he thought of his sister.

The same is not to face, a sapling as grass, a sea fish as freshwater fish, this is really... A little cute.

Speaking of which, did you tell little Britney before she left that what she was holding was actually a sapling instead of grass?

However, it also reveals that the spectator tribe does not care about this knowledge at all. It seems that they have never raised sea fish, and they never care about similar things. Even sur's special discovery problem is that there is no other discussion about why sea fish can't live in fresh water, It can only gradually become a simple "no face" without causality.

This sad mode of thinking is the foundation of ignorance.

"Sur, don't you find that the sea water is salty, but the water you raise these fish is not salty..."

"Ah, I see!"

Priestly tried to explain the reason for sur in simple words, but he underestimated the intelligence of the fairy girl. When he just said that the sea water was salty, sur's face suddenly turned pale, so that priestly didn't need to explain the difference between fresh water and sea water.

Looking at Sur, who suddenly realized, then turned his head and touched the fish tank, apologized to all kinds of fish in it, Prester couldn't help but want to laugh, but he couldn't.

In fact, this kind of thinking is nothing more than a barrier. Even if one more person ponders, he can quickly figure out why. But in this elf tribe, there is no one else to discuss "for a living" with sur. All of them just work step by step, like ants, and never think about the reason and truth behind everything.

"Well, I'm sorry."

All of a sudden, Prester saw the fairy girl turn her head. Sur stroked the fish tank with one hand and said with a trace of apology: "originally, I wanted to take you home to have a look and let you see the wonder of the mother tree... But now, I want to go to the seaside as soon as possible to exchange water for these fish."

"Ah, no problem."

Prest was stunned, then shook his head with a smile. The magic of the mother tree can be seen with the help of the miniature detection puppet. His purpose of coming here has been achieved. Whatever he does next is free time. "If you want to go, I'll go with you."

No matter sur or priestly, they are all aggressive people. Soon, they took advantage of the sun in the evening and walked out of the elf tribe with the fish tank.

Back and forth, there are many elves who have finished hunting and picking and come back to the tribe from all directions. Sur and Prester are very conspicuous. However, except for one of the leading elves who looks up at them, the others are not changed and seem to pass by without any care. Prester even sees sur's father, The golden class Druid deer crown spirit also passed by without expression. Even if his daughter left the tribe with a strange man, he didn't have the slightest curiosity.

Under the calm and natural appearance, it is the stagnant water like the deep well green pool.

The orange sun of strange world sets slowly, and the nine wheeled rust moon rises. Under the strange or gloomy red light, Prester and sur walk silently on the road to the seaside.

Prester is carrying the fish tank, while Sur is holding the tool to change the water. This is his own initiative request. After all, for a gold soldier, there is no big difference between a fish tank and a piece of paper. Prester carries it on his shoulder, trying not to let the water in the tank have any waves.

Soon, they came to the seaside.

The tide is rising sharply.

This is a completely different landscape from that of the day. Under the nine dark red blood rust moons, the rough sea tide surges like a blood wave, and the strange fluorescence billows in the sea, bringing waves of magic. Although the elves' fishing dock was built very high, it was also submerged for a little while, and the bottom of the rock casting was beaten by waves, It glows like Mars.

Strange, but not terrible, and even has a unique aesthetic feeling.

"Put it here."

Sur is the first to walk to a beach that is not completely submerged, while Prester is the second. He puts the fish tank on the edge of the wave, waiting for sur's next action.

At this time, the fairy girl was staring at the horizon, looking at the distant clouds and stars."You say - prest." Sur suddenly asked, "what's across the sea?"

"... probably another continent."

The young soldier narrowed his eyes and said with some uncertainty, "it's hard to judge whether it's the planet world or the mainland world."

But sur didn't seem to care about the answer. She just seemed to like someone to answer her own question. The fairy girl sat on the beach with her hands on her knees and said with a trance: "I like to look into the distance... The sea, the mountains, the woods... I like it all. Every time I just think about it, I feel so excited that I can't help myself. I even want to get on a boat, Go across the sea and have a look. "

"If you think about it, the ancestors must also like to look at it - otherwise, why is the name of the tribe called the gazer? What on earth do they want to see, that's why they take overlooking as their clan name? "

Maybe it's the starry sky. Prester didn't answer. He just subconsciously raised his head and looked at the world barrier, which is very solid and can't be broken even by the giant void. They can't get in or out, and they can't get in or out. They isolate the barriers of the inner and outer world.

Even the elves who go out to colonize will miss their hometown.

"But father, they, uncle, aunt... All don't like to look. It's called the gazer, but he always looks down at the earth and never wants to go out. "

At this point, sur fell into a deep silence. Only when Prester felt something was wrong and wanted to comfort each other, sur snorted. Then he stood up and almost hit Prester's nose. The fairy girl pointed to the sky with one hand and to the ground with the other, and said in a loud voice, "anyway, I'm going to die - it's decided, I may not be able to cross the sea, But before I die, I must go to the opposite side of the sacred mountain to see what's there! "

After that, sur lifted the fish tank on the ground, opened it and poured the fish and water into the sea.

"EH - suer, didn't you say you wanted to change the water?"

Seeing this, he was still immersed in the matter of "Sur is dying". Prester, who was in a daze, had no time to react and stop him. He just went to sur's side and took down the empty fish tank. Unfortunately, he said, "you said that you spent a lot of effort to catch these beautiful fish. How could you let them all go?"

"Well, it's hard for me to support them anyway."

After releasing all the fish, sur looked happy. She straightened her hair because of the sea breeze. She narrowed her eyes and said with a natural smile, "after all, fish is not a life in a vat. It belongs to the sea - it's one thing to catch it and another to keep it in a VAT."

"After all... I don't like being locked up, and I want to go out. Just thinking about it, I don't want to raise fish any more. "

Smell speech, don't know why, Prester tone suddenly low down: "you can go out."

He looked up at the surprised elf girl, and Prester said in a deep voice, "you should go out - it's everyone's right."

"Ha ha, would you like to take me to the other side of the mountain, I might die in the middle of it? It's very cumbersome. "

Sur said with a hearty smile. He was like a middle-aged uncle who had drunk wine. His tone and attitude were completely different from his delicate and delicate appearance. But soon, the fairy girl's seemingly hearty laughter was only self mocking laughter, but it was interrupted by Prester's serious voice.

"Yes, and not just on the other side of the mountain."

Prester looked up at the top of his head, looking into the dark void except September. He whispered, "you have so much to see in the future - definitely more than that, such a small world."

"I promise - I promise that."
