Shura’s Wrath

The elves' houses are all made of trees, and they are relatively small in appearance. Even the house of the patriarch. The first time you walk into an elf's house, the most direct feeling is freshness and elegance. When Ling Chen walked in, Aoki was standing in front of the wooden table, and seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time, seeing Ling Chen walk in, Aoki said with a smile on his face: "Come on, young human, please sit down."

After saying hello, Ling Chen sat down opposite Aoki, and asked straight to the point: "Patriarch Aoki, you called me, do you want to tell me how to get out?"

Aoki sighed and shook his head: "Ashamed, I have already asked my mother, but she doesn't know how to pass through the barrier to the outside world outside the ring of nature. In fact, frankly speaking, when I saw you appear in my elf When I was in the clan, I knew that you would never be able to go out like us."

Ling Chen frowned deeply: "Is there really no other way?"

Aoki nodded with a heavy face, then stood up, took a few steps, raised his head and said: "Some things are secrets of my elves, and only the previous patriarchs know about them, but you do not belong to our elves. , I must tell you first, otherwise, you may not feel at ease."

"What's the matter?" Ling Chen also stood up and asked cautiously.

Aoki turned around, looked at him and said, "Do you know why there is such an invisible barrier around our clan?"

Ling Chen thought for a while and said: "Just now Cai'er told me that the barrier was set up by the ancestors of the elves to prevent the elves from stepping into the outside world."

"That's right." Aoki nodded: "This is indeed the original intention of our barrier. My elves have a very high prestige in the Forgotten Continent, and their overall strength is also exceptionally strong. If you have heard the legends of my elves, You should know that what our people hate the most is war. But this kind of thing has never been interrupted in the Forgotten Continent. For the long-term peace of the Forgotten Continent, our ancestors even did not hesitate to join the war, using their strength and lives Destroy those ugly creatures, even if you bear the price of extermination. However, in the last fierce battle, our elves were greatly injured, but our ancestors never regretted it, because they successfully eliminated those The terrifying demons also wiped out the most terrifying haze in the Forgotten Continent. They originally thought that without those terrifying demons, the Forgotten Continent would be peaceful, and there would be no more wars that should not have occurred."

"However, they found that they were wrong. The human beings they had been guarding had no demons to scare them. However, there were frequent wars between the clans due to conflicts of interests. Every war was accompanied by countless The disability and death of living beings. Even the human beings they have been guarding and close to use their kindness and want to use their power to seek personal gain for themselves. Moreover, the elves at that time were severely injured, and their overall strength was not as good as that of the heyday One-tenth, the human beings who have always been gentle and close to them have also reduced their fears, and began to think about the treasures of my elves..."

Ling Chen: "..."

"Our ancestors were finally completely disappointed and gave up, petitioned the great Moon God of the Moon God Clan, and then returned to the original land of the Elf Clan, and built a maze outside, so that everyone could not find it here, and at the same time An invisible barrier was cast to completely seal the elves' secret realm, so that all the elves could not leave... because they believed that if the elves were always in the outside world, one day their temperament would be tainted with greed, arrogance, violence, The sinful side of adultery and so on. At that time, it will be the time when the elves will completely 'perish'."

After Aoki finished speaking briefly, he looked straight at Ling Chen: "Young human beings, do you think that what our ancestors did was too extreme, blocking the future generations of the elves with their own will?"

Ling Chen was silent for a while, but still nodded.

"Alas," Aoki sighed, "Actually, you don't need to think that this is an offense to our ancestors, because it is true."

"You don't want to be blocked either?" Ling Chen blurted out.

"Hehe," Aoki laughed self-deprecatingly: "At that time, what our ancestors faced was the great loss of vitality of the elves and the deep disappointment of human beings. , They made the decision that was too impulsive and extreme. They blocked the whole clan at the beginning because they didn't want the elves to be contaminated with evil, but blocking the whole clan will make the elves die in a real sense one day."

"Why?" Ling Chen asked in surprise. There is no war here, no pollution, and the lifespan of elves is several times or even ten times that of ordinary humans. How can they perish in this place without any negative factors?

Aoki's eyes dimmed, and his voice became heavy. He sighed and said, "Because elves' ability to reproduce is too weak. In my clan, for every ten elves born, six are male on average, and only four For women, and among the ten female elves, there are generally two infertile ones, and those who are fertile can only bear once in a lifetime, and at most one at a time, there is no such thing as "multiple births" that you humans will have. In this way, in this closed world, you should be able to imagine the ending of our elves."

Ling Chen felt a shock in his heart. The male to female ratio of the elves is so out of balance, and the reproductive ability is even worse. If this is the case, then every generation, the number of elves in the elves will decrease considerably. If things go on like this, it won’t take long , It only takes a few thousand years, and it will wither and die.

"Hehe, there is no other way. In the past, it was normal for elves to marry humans. There are always more male elves than female elves, so many male elves are combined with human females and can be cultivated by human females." Multiple descendants of elves. Therefore, at that time, the elves will not decline in number. But after being blocked, alas."

Aoki let out a long sigh, venting the worry and helplessness in his heart, and then continued: "In addition to what I just said, there is another terrible fact, that is... here, although it will be much purer than the outside world , but because of the surrounding barriers, it has become a gorgeous cage. No matter how gorgeous it is...it is still a cage."

Ling Chen was silent, waiting for him to continue.

"No matter how beautiful a place is, if you stay for a long time, you will get bored and want to leave here to see what the vast world outside is like. But there is no way for us to leave here, so we can only warn you from generation to generation The horror of the outside world and the filth of the outside world are the only way to kill their desire for the outside world. This is the only way to maintain the peace of our family. It is also under this influence that the young elves will reject and They are afraid of the outside world, but even so, it is impossible to completely obliterate their yearning for the outside world. However, with that layer of barriers, all elves can only stay helplessly in this beautiful cage, even if they want to, But you can never leave."

He let out a long breath again, and Aoki said in a heavy voice: "Young human beings, I tell you this just to let you know that in fact, we have always been eager to get out of here. It's just to prevent the elves Because of the complete demise of our clan, we can never stay in this closed world forever. However, as I said before, the barrier that blocks this place cannot be destroyed even if all the strength of my entire clan is used. It can be broken Under that layer of barriers, there should be only the Moon God clan mentioned by the ancestors in the world. But at the beginning, the ancestors took the initiative to petition the Moon God to retire forever and never interfere with the affairs of the mainland. Now they are in a closed world, and there is no There may be a chance to contact the Moon God. Therefore, we can only stay here for generations, and now, even you, like us, will stay here forever."

What Aoki said was mainly to tell Ling Chen the fact that after he entered here, it was impossible for him to leave. Because even the patriarch of his elf clan was eager to leave here but could not.

"Don't you have the ring of nature? Why don't you use the power of the ring of nature to send you out?" Ling Chen thought of the space power that transported him thousands of miles away before, and asked in confusion.

"The reason is very simple. The ring of nature can indeed achieve space transmission that ignores all barriers, but it is ineffective for us elves. Because this kind of random transmission that reaches thousands of miles is biased towards attack, it is very likely to transmit to extremely dangerous places. Therefore, when the ring of nature was generated, it avoided the teleportation to the elves. But it can work for you." Aoki explained.

Ling Chen was even more puzzled: "But, I was sent out with Cai'er before, isn't Cai'er an elf? Or your daughter."

"No," Aoki shook his head in Ling Chen's astonishment, and said meaningfully: "This matter is a secret of our clan, I can only tell you that Cai'er is not a pure elf. It's not my biological daughter...you just bury this matter in your heart and don't tell others, especially Cai'er."

Ling Chen was shocked, but when he thought about Cai'er's appearance, it was indeed very different from other elves. When he first met Caier, what he cared most about was her too small body. The other elves were obviously about the same age as humans, and there was no one as small and dainty as Cai'er.

If Cai'er is not a pure elf, then what is it?

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by Yingxue's cold voice: "Father, ancestors and the ten elders have all arrived."

Aoki turned around and calmly said towards the door: "You all come in, the ceremony can begin."

ceremony? What ceremony? Ling Chen was puzzled.
