The deep darkness gradually covered the drunken sunset above the sky, and the bright stars dotted the black curtain.
The magic moon slowly rises from the end of the horizon, projecting the moonlight that changes colors with the seasons onto the outer layer of the elven capital Liaheim, and then through the barrier that obscures Liaheim's existence. Light up the city of elves.
The night in the Elf City is much different from Aleister. The bright light from the shimmering plants that live with the elves illuminates the entire Elf City. It is not dazzling, soft and gentle. Dim, quiet and peaceful.
This city that coexists with plants has a unique sense of tranquility, just like the peaceful and indifferent attitude of the elves. This is a "pure land" that is much less noisy and noisy than the human kingdom.
Wang Yu and Aviya were walking on the road back from the old man Moira. The girl was holding a cloth bag in her hand. Inside were some small boxes, which swayed and made a soft sound as the girl walked.
"Twin flowers, blue light moss, ball flute mushrooms... and several kinds of magic plants, but they are all magic plants that are easy to grow. Teacher Moira did not embarrass us two inexperienced novices."
As the girl walked, she counted the names of various magic plants, and these magic plants actually corresponded to the magic plants that Moira had given them in the cloth bag she was carrying and asked them to cultivate and plant.
"Ms. Moira is indeed a good teacher. Her teachings are very concise. The various techniques are mainly practical. Occasionally, she will intersperse some important knowledge and expansion about pharmacy. It is easy to understand, but every good pharmacist, "They are both good cultivators of magic plants," I always feel a bit like your aunt..."
Wang Yu lamented the superb teaching level of Moira. The six-hour course could not be said to have learned a lot, but it allowed Wang Yu to broaden his horizons in pharmacy, and at the same time he also found what he should further study. direction.
Somehow I thought of the kind of must-pass teachers I found online in order to pass the final exam after spending a whole semester in college. I have to admit that they have a good way and they really teach well, and Moira is here Basically, it can also teach Wang Yu and them a lot of additional knowledge.
"Haha, that's right. I also think this is a bit like Aunt Lilia. Maybe everyone has different hobbies."
Aviya covered her mouth and chuckled. Wang Yu's mention of Aunt Lilia reminded the girl of the time she spent studying with Wang Yu in a cabin in the forest. It was a really beautiful memory.
"Oh, I still have a lot of pharmacy knowledge to remember, but I have some free time during this time, so I have to find a way to eat all these things."
As Wang Yu spoke, he patted the pile of books piled high on his back. These are the pharmacy knowledge that Moira required Wang Yu to master. Although Wang Yu has a unique advantage in refining medicine, The amount of knowledge that cannot be compared with girls will always be his shortcoming.
"Come on, I believe in you!"
Seeing Wang Yu's bitter look on his face, the girl patted Wang Yu's shoulder gently to show encouragement.
"Speaking of it, it went really smoothly...Although there were a few twists and turns, the results were exceptionally good, including the remains of the stele made of unknown material. I used the power of the chariot to forge and transform it. This will be what I own. Among the weapons I have ever seen, it is the most sturdy and terrifying one."
Wang Yu nodded, and then seemed to think of something, and took out the fragment of the stone tablet in his pocket. Moira gave this to Wang Yu casually, as a reward for hiring Wang Yu to help her process the materials for a month.
"So, what kind of existence is Mr. Aslan..."
The girl knew what Wang Yu wanted to say. She came to find Moira this time simply because of the help of the incredibly handsome and beautiful bard.
The information given by the other party not only perfectly met Wang Yu's requirements, but the results were also extremely perfect, which made the girl have some thoughts about his identity.
At least, not just a bard.
"Whatever, since the other party has no ill intentions, there is no need to make groundless assumptions about others. There will be opportunities to meet again in the future. You still have to ask the other party to help tell the good story."
Wang Yu no longer struggled with Aslan's identity, and the other party didn't do anything to them. No matter what the other party's identity was, who knows how many strong people in this world who hide their identities. Do you have to change the other party's identity when you meet one? Understand.
"Yeah, that's right."
The girl nodded and walked back to the residence arranged for them by the elves with Wang Yu. She showed the guard the token of the elf elder Ge Wen and was naturally let in by the guard who had been greeted by the professor in advance.
The wooden house they were assigned to live in was a wooden house with a small courtyard, which was somewhat similar to Wang Yu's "home" on Hongfeng Street. It was smaller, but the courtyard was much larger.
The girl activated her magic power, and the earth element turned over the land in the small courtyard under its control, plowing into the ground the weeds and low-level magic plants that were originally growing in the yard.
And Wang Yu buried the magic plant seeds in the soil at different depths according to the growth requirements of different magic plants at the place where the girl turned.
"Huh, that's right. If you irrigate it with magic potion every day, it should sprout in about a month."
After taking a breath, Wang Yu looked at the mini "magic potion field" that had just been opened in the yard. He felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment and seemed to be able to see the joy of farming.
"I'll go inside and meditate for a while. Wang Yu, is there anything else you need to do?"
The girl opened the wooden door of the hut and turned to ask Wang Yu.
"No, take this time to read these books."
Walking into the wooden house with the girl, Wang Yu planned to learn more about pharmacy before going to bed. It felt like he was back to the time when he was preparing for the college entrance examination.
The door closed and the surroundings of the hut gradually became quiet.
…
"Shashasha..."
It was like the sound of something dragging and moving on the ground. It wasn't very loud, and it was almost imperceptible if you didn't listen carefully. Even if you heard it, you would probably think it was made by some small animals living in the city of elves.
There was something floating in the darkness. Long, dense and slender roots similar to the aerial roots of a banyan tree hung down from the main body floating in the air, scraping against the ground and making slight noises when the thing moved.
In the area where the elves live, the shimmering plants no longer emit light under the control of the elves, and darkness softly surrounds the various single-family huts here, as deep as water.
And this existence floating in the air quietly entered the place where the elves lived, wandering around their houses, its roots constantly scratching the ground and making a slight rustling sound, but no elves noticed it.
In the area where the elves live, there are some magic circles and extended root systems of the tree of life used to sense the animals living on these giant trees.
This is to prevent harmless monsters from causing unnecessary trouble to the elves. When these existences are sensed, the magic circle will be activated and some small spells or special smells will be used to drive them out.
However, this existence floating in the air has passed through several magic circles arranged by the elves, but not a single one has reacted to it, allowing it to wander around the area where the elves live undetected.
It wandered around for a while, during which time an elven ranger quietly jumped over the house. These were the night watchmen of the elves. The natural secret language they chanted allowed them to communicate with the elves in the city. Giant trees, used to explore.
But like those magic circles, none of these elven rangers discovered the existence submerged and surrounded by darkness. They just passed by it and headed to the next place that needed to be patrolled.
The being paused slightly as the elf rangers passed by, not to avoid being discovered by making a sound. Its main body was slightly raised, as if it was observing the night watchmen passing above it with great interest.
After the night watchmen left, this existence continued to wander near the residence of the elves.
The aimless wandering stopped at a certain moment, and something caught its attention. It floated towards a wooden house. The wooden house had no curtains, and inside was the bedroom of the elf living in this wooden house.
"Snapped……"
With a slight noise, the thing seemed to want to enter the bedroom directly, but failed. The glass separated it from the bedroom, and it could only hit the glass window with little force.
"Pasha, pasha..."
The sound of roots wiping the floor and the sound of glass being lightly collided sounded at the same time. It was the thing that was rotating its body and turning one side of itself into the window.
"Tick..."
The little girl-like elf in the house was sleeping deeply, and her long ears trembled slightly when she breathed.
At a certain moment, a drop of water slid down the wall of the bottle into the small bottle placed on the bedside and fell into the water. The extremely small sound only alarmed the small creature resident in the bottle, a fluorescent frog.
After being slightly frightened, a soft green light emitted from the colorful skin of the fluorescent frog, illuminating the face of the elf girl and temporarily dragging the person observing it outside the window out of the darkness. .
A twisted and haggard face was illuminated by the light and reflected by the glass window it was close to, making it look extremely terrifying and ferocious.
It is similar to the shape of a human face, but all the organs are twisted and mixed together. The nose and mouth seem to be a little overdeveloped. After taking up their original positions, they proliferate and twist to the side.
What's wrong with the growth of both eyes? One of the eyes is just a hole with nothing inside, and the other eye has dense and intertwined strange tiny hair-like things spreading out from the inside, making the person who sees it feel like There is also something disgusting and itchy growing in his eyeballs.
It has no lower body, only a head made of wood stitched together floating in the air, which violates the normal physiological structure. Under the neck where the head is connected, there are only dense roots dragging there, which is ugly and twisted, making people feel extreme. discomfort and nausea
The withered and twisted head was pressed tightly against the glass window. It was impossible to tell whether the eyes were functioning or not. The invisible sight revealed in them was locked on the elf sleeping soundly on the bed. There was something about it that was malicious but not completely consistent. His thoughts covered the elf.
"Creak..."
The glass made a sharp and harsh sound due to the gradually increasing power of the twisted wood spirit, which reached the ears of the sleeping elf in the bedroom.
"Um?"
The elf girl rubbed her eyes, stood up from the bed in a daze, and looked towards the window where the sound came from.
"There's nothing..."
The awakened elf, still feeling sleepy and confused, muttered something and lay back down again.
And outside the window, it's exactly what it says.
Nothing.
The twisted wood spirit was nowhere to be found.
"(Today is full of classes, so there will be a little less update. As per the old rules, tomorrow is Saturday, a holiday, so I will update more!)"
