The Experimental Log of the Crazy Lich

"The mother god's most favored and beloved child—the elf."

If the Creator also has his own preferences, then the elves are undoubtedly the most favored children.

A beautiful face, a long lifespan, a powerful and preferred talent, the possibility of both magic and martial arts, the extraordinary potential of the high elves and royal elves, all of these are the grace of the Creator.

And these favors have also created a unique elf culture, talent in combat and long lifespan, allowing them to reach the pinnacle of the multiverse in magic and martial arts, and formed a social structure with a strict hierarchy but a strict division of labor.

Naturally beautiful, coupled with their sensitivity and relentless pursuit of beautiful things, their art, music, and literature have reached the point of extravagance and waste, and this also allows them to have a long-standing ethnic culture, which is not as good as it was during the long ice age. fall apart.

Elves, the most beloved children of the Creator, this is a truth that no creature can deny.

No civilization has such a long history. The oldest golden elves are the people of gold who were born with the first batch of ancient dragons and demons. It can be said that they were born at the beginning of the world.

In the history of the elves, they have fought against trolls, exchanged technology with sage civilizations, and even taught ancient and modern humans what magic is. Their brilliance is too long.

"Don't discuss history and art in front of elves, just like don't show off your courage in front of orcs." This old proverb may explain a lot.

Jihad is brutal. Other dominant races lost their status as "protagonists" and often disappeared in history, such as troll empires, sage civilizations, dwarf city-states, and undead republics. However, the elves, who have experienced several jihads, only gradually withdrew from the stage of history.

This is not only because of the grace of the creator and the potential of the race, but also because the elves were very good at dealing with other races in the past, and at many key points in history, they stood on the side of the winner.

The republic of the undead, the civilization of sages, and the kingdom of mages of modern humans have all received more or less the favor of the elves and were guided by the golden elves. The Elven Empire has always expressed inexplicable friendliness to upstart races other than trolls.

But perhaps it is precisely because of this slightly weak style of dealing with things that the golden elves are gradually opposed by the higher elves who yearn for greater glory and eternity.

"Why should we bow our heads to those lowly monkeys!"

"Why should we move to the forests and mountains."

"Why can't we just wipe out those inferior races?"

As time passes and elemental tides come and go.

The golden elves, like other races from ancient times, have entered the final stage, and the reduction of elemental power has led to a gradual decrease in the fertility rate of the golden elves as an ancient race, reaching the end of the age. The birth of every golden elf can make the empire hold the grandest celebration ceremony.

On the other hand, the jihads and race wars of the past dynasties have damaged the top immortals of the golden elves, and the spiritual decline has caused the senior elves to fall into eternal sleep. The new generation is insufficient, and other lower elves and upper elves naturally gradually occupy society. the upper layer.

Does it look familiar? Yes, the current moon elf and silver elf society is also facing the same problem. The quantity and quality of the lower races have increased, so naturally they can't understand the upper races that are getting poorer and weaker. This has nothing to do with the stupid and wise decisions made by the upper race. It is simply a rebalancing of the power of all social classes as society changes. The new mainstream class of society has re-selected the surrogates.

Just like changes in productivity lead to changes in society, in the magical world, the replacement of upper-level combat power and strategic personnel naturally leads to social changes, or the whole society is calling for changes.

At this time, no matter what the golden elves do, it is wrong. As a result, the upper elves holding the banner of freedom collectively rebelled. The great rebellion is not just a matter of the mortal world, the key is the reshuffle of the elven god system. The final result is that all the golden elves are destroyed, the gods fall and the mortals die. Only Heloise reunited after hundreds of years Waking up, but things have changed.

But success is Xiao He, failure is Xiao He, the golden elves who have ruled the elves for countless years are obviously wise, even if they must decentralize power, they handed over the country's most important military affairs, religion, people's livelihood, and diplomacy to different upper elves , although such a political structure led to the generation of family groups among the high elves, it also allowed them to restrict each other.

Moreover, it also planted the cause of future disillusionment.

And after the top existence of the golden elves fell, the four high-ranking elves with almost the same strength faced the most troublesome problem. So stupid that, for a while, parliamentary and senatorial systems seemed the only options.

result? The current scattered elf tribes and elf kingdoms are proof. Some things only need to see the results. The turning point of the elves from prosperity to decline lies in the collapse of the elf empire. The loss of the balance and lubrication of the golden elves made everything start to get out of control.

The dark elves and Rose were exiled as the losers of the struggle, the wood elves and druids withdrew from the elf empire and joined the neutral natural camp, other upper elves attacked the wood elves, the moon elves and silver elves broke up, if the gold elves were still there, all these None of the historical events will happen.

When the head on top of the head was taken down, the upper elves and the elves and gods were extremely inflated after tasting the joy of victory and power, thinking that they could replace the "corrupt and weak golden elves" and lead the elves to a better tomorrow …Then the upper elves with different natures began to intervene in the opponent's domain, and the constant friction eventually escalated into a civil war, followed by a holy war, which caused the elf empire to return to the tribal system.

If you talk about losing money quickly, I am afraid that there are few races that can compare with the upper elves. Of course, they will not admit it themselves. Everything is "other people's fault", "it is all the fault of this world", "it is all gold The conspiracy of the elves"...although it is more or less the responsibility of the golden elves. But it's really miserable to be dug out and shot after everyone dies.

When the branches of the elves separated, everyone was very happy. I'm afraid everyone has the idea of ​​"at last there are no such drags", but life is getting more and more sad, and naturally some people will miss the old dynasty, and as the entire group is surpassed by humans and other "short-lived monkeys", it is becoming more and more marginalized. Their life is getting more and more difficult, and they begin to miss the era of the Great Empire again.

As the difficult years accumulate. More and more high elves are nostalgic for the glory of the past, and this is in the eyes of some old antiques. It felt like some irony of fate.

And now, the elves have once again reached a turning point in their fate.

The moon elves have established a new elf empire in name, which is considered to have fulfilled their long-cherished wish, but at the moment. The realization of this long-cherished wish is indeed of great practical significance.

First of all, it ruled all the elves in name, then, when the imperial capital is threatened, are the strong elves obliged to rescue it? And if someone escaped from the Moon Capital at this time, can it be said that he is a deserter and a shameless traitor?

The answer is yes, there are always old-fashioned and dogmatists among the elves. The moon elves have not given up hope, they long for even a glimmer of hope.

Every day, countless reinforcements set off from all over the world for the capital of the moon. There are wood elf druids and rangers who came out of the forest, half-elves and human mercenaries who admire elf culture, and young warriors who yearn for merit and glory.

"Maybe the information is wrong? Maybe the demon tide is not as desperate as in the historical records? Perhaps, we still have reinforcements, we have the favor of the gods, we can survive this demon tide. We can survive this disaster."

Perhaps this fluke seems silly, but if you think about it. There is a prediction with high accuracy, saying that an island country on the earth will sink into the sea in ten days, what will happen?

Because the population is too large and the time is too short, it is too late to flee, and even if those islanders fled to other countries and were kindly accepted, they were just reduced to refugees, and the country was completely over. Even the homeland was gone, and this nation was still counted. exist? Even if it exists, can he still be independent and free?

And if they are enemies on all sides like elves, when the national elves are still the most valuable slaves in the eyes of humans, the actual situation is even more terrifying than just assumed.

If there is a great escape of the elves, and countless elves flee to other countries in chaos, will there be more than a dozen slave-hunting brigades jumping out of the border line on the human side? Count on the integrity and lower limit of those human nobles?

To be honest, this kind of assumption and decision-making is too difficult to make, but no matter how you look at it, no matter what decision the elves make, it is a scene of despair.

If the decision to escape is made, it is tantamount to announcing the end of the Moon Elf Empire in advance, and the ensuing elf catastrophe and humanitarian disaster are historical responsibilities that no high-level elf can bear. The slow death of the entire elves is better than uniting to face the doomsday crisis.

Even, driven by various fluke mentality, there have been rumors that the magic tide will not appear in the moon capital. This is just a rumor spread by humans in order to disintegrate the elf empire.

Needless to say, this rumor is being spread, and many people really believe it. After all, people always like to hear things that are beneficial to them.

Now, all countries in the world are stunned by the moon elves, they didn't refute the rumors! This seems to be an official acquiescence, they are actually whitewashing peace?

The attitude of the moon elves is very clear. Now I have at least rebuilt the elf empire and left traces in history. The chances of a crisis will also increase a lot.

In the eyes of some people, this kind of fluke mentality is the most stupid. You have fallen into the pit. At this time, pulling people into the pit together, are you happy to die together?

The most sensible thing at this time is naturally to shout "Leave me alone", and then obediently enter the pit to die, so as to preserve the flesh and blood of the elves as much as possible, but many times, especially when life is threatened, the sensibility of intelligent creatures Instinct far outweighs reason.

Perhaps those split silver elves chose to go north after seeing through all of this, but it seems that it is too late for them.

Perhaps, it was the Creator who didn't want to see the elves perish, and that drove the invisible hand of fate, touching key people at critical moments.

"Roland, come here, I have found something here, which makes people very concerned."

at this time. I was also a little surprised when I heard Heloise's exclamation, because it was in the soul link. It was a rare surprise and joy. Is there anything that can make the well-informed Heloise so happy.

I didn't look forward to the treasure house of the succubus lord too much, because these old guys have a habit of not keeping real treasures in their homes, or they will lose money and lose money if they are robbed by their enemies... Well, I admit that I also dug a bunch of treasure houses and drew a bunch of real and fake treasure maps.

As for the treasure house at home? Save some things. Let others not go home empty-handed and kill people to vent their anger. After all, no one can really succeed in preventing thieves for a thousand days.

I looked at Didina in surprise. Didn't expect her to be so "new and tender"? But then, judging from the undisguised surprise on her face, it seemed that she hadn't expected it either.

Walking into the treasure house, it was no surprise to see a bunch of dazzling golden lights. But without my identification, those gold coin mountains are either fantasy gold coins of leprechauns or cursed gold coins of devils.

But amidst the golden light, Heloise and Margaret were busy around some worn-out antique furniture. Among them, what she repeatedly wiped with a wet towel was a classic white oak dressing table.

"Roland, this is the dressing table I used back then!"

Heloise only showed me the treasures presented, maybe because I was too excited to see my own supplies back then, and my mental age seemed to show signs of degeneration.

Just looking for me for this? I said angrily.

"Yes, yes. The furniture from back then can be regarded as super antiques. You have further proved your fossil-like age... Strange?"

At this time in the past, the dead cat had turned into a flying cat and bit it. Today, she is a little excited and a little strange.

"Hmph, I know you don't know the goods, just watch."

Heloise stood in front of the mirror on the dressing table, clearly incarnated as an adult, displayed in the dilapidated mirror. But it was the blond elf.

She took a deep breath and tapped the mirror with her fingertips. But there are ripples slowly rippling.

She touched her neck, and the girl in the mirror did the same, but there was an extra golden sapphire necklace, and the next moment, the same golden necklace appeared on Heloise's neck .

She playfully nodded her forehead, and a small and lovely golden crown appeared between her foreheads.

She stretched out her hand in front of the mirror, shook it, and there was an extra golden scepter no matter what was inside or outside the mirror.

"Ivis's tears, the will of the Elf King, the last golden crown...the three-piece set of artifacts of the golden elf royal family! The lost proof of the Elf King!"

Didina actually recognized this treasure that had disappeared in history. I re-estimated her age and value again, but at this moment, I somehow felt that the situation was not right, as if some super trouble had already been encumbered.

Looking at the smiling Heloise and accidentally picking up the baby, I should feel pleasantly surprised, but this series of "coincidences" reminded me inexplicably of the previous conversation with Cattillo (the former God of Destiny).

"Catilo, can you really control your destiny? Then, can you help me change my luck... I don't need wealth or anything, just give me a little luck for women, a slightly normal woman... ..."

"...I feel a little ashamed, can I pretend not to know you?"

At that time Hades had already been established, and the two had a sneaky conversation in private. Cattillo was in a good mood, but it was rare for him to crack a joke.

But I was really not kidding at the time. A daughter who is so old has become a beating or a virgin. It is not shameful but horrific to say it. I just want a normal girlfriend to start a normal family. There are two A normal kid, is that too much?

But then, Cattillo was passing by. Since he mentioned fate, he must be serious.

"Change of luck? Others may be able to, but you are impossible. Every individual is involved in countless lines of cause and effect. They shout to get rid of the shackles of fate, but they don't know that it is also a part of fate."

"Every existence has its own destiny, whether it is an ordinary life or a heroic life. In the river of fate, there is no essential difference. The thread of fate is determined when they are born."

When he said this, Catillo gave me a playful look, as if there was something in his words.

"As the guardian of the Temple of Destiny and the River of Destiny, I can cut and reconnect the lines of cause and effect, but to give an individual good luck in certain aspects, it is natural to give him the same amount of bad luck. This is the basic rule of fate. "

"There is a limit to this change. I can watch the thread of other people's fate in the long river of fate, but after I leave, I will automatically forget it and cannot disclose it. No matter what changes I make, it is itself a part of fate."

Hearing this, I was not surprised but happy.

"Luck of wealth doesn't matter, as long as luck is enough."

"Perhaps this can be regarded as changing fate. And you, you have not been in the river of karma from the beginning. You can change the fate of the people around you, but you have no distinction between good luck and bad luck. You should be unlucky... Call it worst luck."

I still remember that he looked at me with incomprehensible sympathy.

"I can tie the thread of other people's marriage to you, but this is tantamount to challenging the original basic rules of the river of fate and throwing cause and effect into the void. In the end, not only will I be punished, but my luck will definitely turn into a catastrophe..."

"Then you have a use!? The master of fate is so useless? You are still a powerful god, so useless."

At that time, I was very upset and cursed directly, but Cattillo laughed at that time.

"Yes, the God of Destiny is indeed very useless in front of the shadowless and invisible hand of fate, in the face of the inevitability that countless chances finally converge..."

Obviously speaking of his own powerlessness, the master of fate seems to be showing off the greatness of fate.

"...No matter how I change and arrange it, I can't match the fateful arrangement of fate. Roland, let me give you a piece of advice. Maybe you are not in fate, but the people and things you are involved in are also in the long river of fate , unless you are willing to cut off all attachments, in the end, you still cannot escape."

That playful smile made my scalp tingle, and I reconfirmed that the most hated thing in this world is the magic stick, especially the magic stick that is halfway through the conversation.

Now, looking at Heloise who is showing her baby to others, I feel more and more numb in my scalp.

"Damn god stick, where did I get tricked again?" (To be continued)
