Hearing what the clan leader said, Wang Chen felt a little ashamed, "I'm really ashamed."
"I really don't have much free time to come see you often, because there will be a very important competition for me soon, which will determine my future, so I have been seizing the time to improve my strength recently."
"When I'm done with this period of work, I should have time to visit everyone from the Fairy Tribe more often."
Wang Chen said, flashing his fingertips.
"These are some human food and technological creations. They don't have much value, but they are better than novelty."
Wang Chen said, "Humans have all kinds of flavorings. I think there will be some flavors that the clan leader has never tried. You can try them when you want to eat snacks."
The clan leader twirled his beard and said with a smile: "If you are serious, there is no need for the brave to bring anything. You and our fairy clan are as close as relatives and friends. How can anyone bring gifts to their own home?"
"This can't be called a gift. It can only be regarded as a small kindness." Wang Chen said with a smile, "By the way, there seem to be many new faces in the village, all of which are fairies I have never seen before."
"Well, they are all fairies who defected from various scattered tribes because they heard that our tribe has recovered the fountain of life." The clan leader replied.
"Tribe? So the fairies are divided into many tribes?" Wang Chen asked curiously.
"Yes, it's quite complicated to talk about. Basically, there are three types: forest fairies who live in the forest, mountain fairies who build villages in the mountains and plains, and seaside fairies who make a living by fishing and hunting on the rivers, lakes and seaside."
"Then our tribe should belong to the mountain fairies?" Wang Chen used "we" skillfully.
Sure enough, when the clan leader heard what Wang Chen said, his birch-bark face wrinkled with laughter again, "Yes. In addition to these three main types of fairies, there are also some scattered tribes, but they are too small. Even my many Sometimes I have to read the ancestral books of the fairies to find out."
"Anyway, it's a good thing that the tribe can grow stronger." Wang Chen said with a smile, "If there is anything I can do to help, just ask."
The old man and the young man exchanged the tribe's future plans for a long time, and Wang Chen finally found the opportunity to tell the purpose of his visit.
He described his physical condition to the patriarch.
After hearing this, the clan leader looked solemn and said, "It turns out that Na'er has already given her support to you."
The patriarch sighed, "I knew there might be a day, but I didn't expect her to make up her mind so quickly."
Wang Chen was confused when he heard this, "Yongzan? What is that? Does it mean that the changes in my body are related to Na'er?"
The clan leader looked at Wang Chen and asked, "Did that happen between you on the night of the celebration?"
Wang Chen looked embarrassed when he heard this and nodded stiffly.
"This is Yongzan." The clan leader explained. "When a goblin gives his first time to another person, he will pass on part of the vitality in his body to the other person."
"If this process occurs between two fairies, then it is an exchange of vitality, which is a good thing that complements each other, because the vitality of each fairy is different, and the exchange can make its own vitality more complex and vigorous. It helps a lot.”
"But if you combine with a species other than the fairies, you will unilaterally transfer life and lose part of your own life."
The patriarch looked at Wang Chen solemnly with his deep eyes, "You and Na'er fall into the latter situation. The changes in your body are caused by the influx of a large amount of vitality."
Wang Chen panicked when he heard this. He knew that vitality was very important to goblins, otherwise he would not have paid so much attention to the fountain of vitality.
The goblins who had lost the source of vitality would still have black spots on their bodies, which looked very dangerous no matter how they looked.
"So if Na'er loses part of her vitality, wouldn't it have a great impact on her?" Wang Chen asked.
The patriarch nodded slowly, "First of all, her lifespan will be affected. It is easy for a goblin to live for a thousand years, but now she may only have half of her previous lifespan."
"And she is almost three hundred years old." The patriarch said.
Wang Chen asked eagerly: "Is there no way to remedy it?"
"The fountain of vitality can restore her lost vitality, but the process is very slow, and acquired remedies are not as good as the innate vitality, and may not be able to replenish her original lifespan in the end." The patriarch explained.
"This..." Wang Chen slumped in the armchair in confusion, and the girl with a charming smile seemed to appear in front of his eyes, "Why are you so stupid..."
"That's all, it's useless to regret what happened now." The patriarch comforted Wang Chen, and then said to him seriously, "You have to become stronger as soon as possible. Na'er may... no, she will definitely need you when she needs you, and That time will come soon.”
Wang Chen was stunned and quickly asked: "What should I say? Will she be in any danger because of Yongzan?"
"It's not time to tell you the specific matters. I should tell you. Telling you now will not be beneficial to you, and may even dampen your ambition."
The patriarch stood up and stood in front of the window of the wooden house, looking into the distance. "You just need to remember that the stronger you become, the better."
Wang Chen fell into silence after hearing this. He realizes that there are many things about Na'er that he doesn't know, and those things may drag the two of them into a whirlpool.
After a long time, he said firmly to the patriarch: "I understand, I will be strong enough to face any challenge."
When the patriarch heard his words, he turned around and smiled and said, "That's it."
The old goblin man walked back to Wang Chen and said, "There is one more thing. The changes in you may continue. What it will look like cannot be determined yet."
Wang Chen wondered: "Isn't it just that the body has become better and the life span has been longer?"
"The effect of the goblin clan's praise is not that mediocre." The clan leader said, "Because you are a human being, your race cannot be called longevity in front of many races."
The patriarch walked to the cupboard and took out two cups of different heights.
"If water represents life, how much life it can hold represents the limit of your lifespan. This tall cup represents the lifespan limit of the fairies, and this short cup represents the lifespan limit of humans."
The patriarch poured water into two cups, about a little more than two-thirds full, "Assuming that normal fairies and humans have so much innate talent, then after you go through the process of praise, you will become like this."
The patriarch picked up the tall cup and poured water into the short cup until the water overflowed. "Did you see it?"
Wang Chen was puzzled, "What did you see? The water came out?"
"Yes." The patriarch put down the water glass, "Because of the upper limit of human endowment, vitality will not be stable enough to support you to live for thousands of years, it will only overflow."
"But how it overflows is unknown. Life will find a way to consume itself. As for whether it will be evaporated or dumped, it is not under our control."
