However, in most cases, this advantage of the elves is not used in military affairs. Over the years, few lunatics have dared to enter the Sacred Tree Forest.
Therefore, portals are basically used by elves to travel.
And no matter where you go, there is no charge, even the elves themselves have abandoned the 'currency system'!
Although the elves store precious metals such as gold, that is to trade with other races for certain desirable items, and in most cases they just treat these precious metals as ordinary metals. Internally, general materials are distributed according to demand or taken at will, and higher-level special materials are distributed according to work. If you want to get something from someone else, you can barter.
If this system wants to run perfectly, it is basically a fantasy for humans. After all, the Church of the Goddess of the Sea has proved that even if the true God is sitting above their heads, the people below dare to mess around.
But for the elves, this has been a daily routine that has been going on for who knows how many years.
The elves have a normal outlook on life: loving labor and taking pride in it, respecting technology and talent, and despising those who get something for nothing and those who cheat and play tricks, etc.
Apart from being extremely cruel to other nations, elves are the most favored race by Mozo and even the original race.
They are so good!
But for some reason, Yuanchu seems to be very obsessed with dragons. He likes elves the most, but he likes dragons the most.
This is something that even Mozo couldn't figure out. All he could say was that Yuanchu probably liked powerful creatures like dragons.
There are still a considerable number of Sanxes and powerful dragon species from the Age of Gods to the present day, which is undoubtedly a naked bias in the original.
However, the dragons did respond to the original's preference. In that noble rebellion that made all creatures look sideways and tremble, the original creations either followed their main gods and chose to blaspheme, or remained silent and avoided because of fear or greed. From the beginning to the end, only the dragons have always stayed by the side of the original.
It was also the dragons that finally put an end to the glory and splendor of the ancient gods.
Therefore, dragons have always been at odds with other races, one reason being their arrogance, and the other being their hostility.
There is a deep blood feud between the two sides.
If it is a pure white Libra, it would be very happy to fall into the hands of a dragon. After all, they all like to talk about the Lord and the Origin.
In short, in the face of the powerful technology of the elves, Eldaran easily took Audrey to Rivendell.
It is a legendary city standing at the feet of the Twin Sacred Trees, and it was also the glory that once belonged exclusively to the Sun King.
However, one thing that many people misunderstand about the Twin Trees is that ignorant mortals always imagine the Twin Trees as two giant tower-like trees nestled together based on the name of the Twin Trees.
In fact, this cannot be blamed on them, because firstly, the name of the Twin Trees is too misleading, and secondly, many of the elves' own cultural symbols, such as the holy emblem and seal engraved with the Twin Trees, and the Sun Coins that were once issued to foreign races, are all engraved with two sacred trees leaning against each other.
However, this is simply because if it were portrayed truthfully, it would not be easy to express the existence of the Sun King. Therefore, when the elves created these symbols, they portrayed the Twin Trees as two giant trees nestled together, and then added the existence of the Sun King between the two giant trees.
It is said that the Sun King also said that this would better reflect the essence of the Two Sacred Trees. But in fact, it seems that only Mozo felt that if this continued, many people who did not know the truth would be shocked after knowing it.
In this way, under the guidance of many factors, the fact that the Twin Holy Trees are two giant trees nestled together has almost become common knowledge for many people outside, and has also been written into textbooks and teaching materials.
In fact, according to the understanding of many mortals, there is only one of the Twin Holy Trees!
This was what Audrey thought when she first saw Rivendell and the Two Trees.
After passing through the ancient and exquisite portal that had been perfectly integrated with countless green plants, the first thing Audrey saw was a huge lake as calm as a mirror.
In the center of the lake, there is a giant tree rising from the ground like a tower!
Rivendell is hidden at the foot of the sacred tree. This legendary city makes use of the huge root system of the sacred tree and the elves' ingenious construction technology to perfectly embody the elven aesthetics without damaging the roots of the sacred tree!
Rather than saying that Rivendell is a city built at the foot of the sacred tree, it would be better to say that it is a miracle growing within the sacred tree!
It is a kind of perfection and stunningness that goes beyond the limits of human language description.
But after a brief and huge surprise, Audrey became confused.
Isn't it the Twin Sacred Trees?!
Why is there only one
Then Audrey came to her senses.
The Twin Sacred Trees are a tree in the center of the lake and its reflection is a tree!
This is the real twin sacred tree!
Moreover, the holy tree reflected in the center of the lake is a pure holy tree. There is no Rivendell there!
Before Audrey could continue to be surprised by this discovery, Eldaran said:
"Come on, human girl. Ra made time just for you."
After saying that, he took Audrey's hand and walked forward without saying anything.
This made Audrey stunned:
“There’s no road ahead!”
Eldaran and the elves who were accompanying him all laughed, and then Eldaran stepped onto the lake in front of Audrey's surprised gaze.
Then she stood on it steadily, and the other elves stood on it as steadily as she did, as if they were standing on a mirror instead of the lake.
But Audrey could clearly see the green moss and fish swimming under the lake!
"If one steps on it without blessing, he will sink, and if one steps on it, he will drown. But if one steps on it with glory, it will be as flat as the ground."
"Human girl, this was common knowledge for many humans in the past. I knew that you short-lived species forget knowledge very quickly, but I didn't expect it to be so fast."
"Okay, don't hesitate any longer, come on up, we still have to go see Ra. Ra's time is very precious!"
After saying this, Eldalan pulled Audrey onto the lake without further ado.
What made Audrey feel relieved was that she was standing on it like the elves, instead of drowning underneath as common sense described.
However, Audrey's peace of mind soon disappeared as she continued to move forward.
The elves might be used to it, but Audrey, who was walking on the lake for the first time, found that the water under her feet was too clear as she went deeper into the center of the lake...
Not only was the lake so clear that it felt like she was standing dozens or hundreds of meters above the ground, but even more terrifying was the countless indescribable giants beneath the lake!
Audrey had always thought she had no fear of the deep sea, but now she found out she was wrong.
Not only does she have it, but it's very serious!
If Eldaran hadn't been holding her back, she would have been unable to walk the first time she saw a huge white snake with a dorsal fin swimming beneath her feet.
It's not that Audrey is timid, it's just that all of this is too challenging for a normal person!
Fortunately, those giant creatures are just huge, and their appearance is still very aesthetic. Otherwise, if they were replaced by those deep-sea monsters that were pulled behind the ships by the large fleet in the Sea City last time.
Audrey felt that she would not be able to hold on until now.
"Why am I walking slower and slower? Am I tired? But why is this happening at the foot of the sacred tree? Ah, I remember now!"
Eldaran, who turned around in confusion because Audrey was walking slower and slower, remembered.
"I remember my grandmother said that in her time, there were occasionally sages from humans or great men from other races who came here. When they passed by the Sacred Heart Lake, they would develop a psychological disease called deep-water phobia."
"I originally thought that my grandmother was fooling the child, because the sages who were invited here, even if they were humans or orcs, would be very elegant and noble. How could such people be afraid of the completely harmless Sacred Heart Lake?"
"But now it seems that grandma didn't lie to me. Sacred Heart Lake seems to be a bit challenging your psychological endurance."
Eldaran said as he picked up Audrey by the waist amid her small exclamation:
"That won't do. La is still waiting for you."
Audrey, who was held in Eldaran's arms again, seemed to be in a complicated mood.
If possible, she hoped that the one holding her at this moment was Mozo instead of this elf.
After being out for so long, Audrey really missed Mozo.
In Eldalan's arms, Audrey was quickly brought to the front of Ra's palace.
The elven guards guarding the door seemed to have received the hint long ago. Even when they saw Eldaran coming over with a human in his arms, they did not ask any questions and pushed open the exquisite door behind them that had the true scene of the holy tree carved on it.
Here, Eldaran said goodbye to the elves who had followed him all the way, and only Eldaran and Audrey entered.
But before entering the palace, Eldaran did not forget to say to a young elf guarding the gate:
"Grandma, I'll come back to see you!"
Looking at the grandmother who looked very similar to Eldaran but almost as "young" as herself, Audrey was stunned.
She knew that elves were immortal, but was it so outrageous? !
But before Audrey could continue to be surprised, she was distracted by the new character.
Not far from the entrance, Audrey, led by Eldaran, walked to a pavilion standing in the garden.
It was also here that Audrey finally met the legendary La!
The other party's clothes were not as gorgeous as Audrey had imagined. Although they were indeed exquisite clothes that could not be compared with the clothes of human nobles, they seemed to be very common among elves.
At least it didn't quite match Audrey's imagination of La.
After all, Ra was a great man who was elected by the high lords to lead the elves after the death of the Sun King.
In human cognition, Ra has basically become the uncrowned king of the elves.
Many sages who have been to the Sacred Tree Forest said that the elves have a unified and unanimous name for Ra - the Great Ra!
So Audrey naturally elevated La's image infinitely, but when she first met her, she found that the other party did not seem so "out of this world".
But even so, La still met Audrey's imagination, that is, his appearance and temperament were amazing even for a girl like her.
Perhaps judging from her appearance alone, Audrey was not inferior to La, but the other party's temperament far surpassed Audrey's.
With this indescribable temperament, Audrey's appearance is far inferior to La.
Another point is that everyone says that elves are slender and not voluptuous, but why are the elves she has come into contact with more and more exaggerated figures? ?
Audrey looked down at herself with a bit of inferiority complex. Her figure wasn't bad, but among the elves who weren't inferior, it was just average...
No wonder human nobles always want to catch an elf.
Elegance, beauty, and dignity, when these three are combined into one, how many male animals can resist
After sending Audrey to La's side, Eldaran knelt down on one knee apologetically and said:
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm late!"
Looking at Eldaran in front of him, La shook his head and smiled:
"It is not late, my dear little Eldaran. You always exaggerate my work, but in fact I have very little to do. So I am free!"
But Eldaran still said with shame:
"Please don't comfort me. My great-grandmother told me that during the prosperous period of His Majesty the Sun King's reign, she privately lamented that it was difficult to rule a race and that it was exhausting!"
At this sentence, La's expression froze slightly. At this moment, she really wanted to tell Eldaran that leading the elves was not a difficult task even during the time of the Sun King.
The reason why that bastard king said that was just to explain why he was lifting people's skirts everywhere because he was too tired...
Also, from that time on, she was basically in charge of all the internal affairs of the elves!
That bastard king was in charge of things except for the initial period. She was the one who took the blame the rest of the time! If she confronted him about this, he would still yell that the king's job is not to force himself, but to put the right people in the right positions!
Obviously, in the eyes of the Bastard King, she is the unlucky person who is suitable for handling government affairs.
Otherwise, the high lords would not have nominated her to lead everyone later.
Even that bastard king would fall directly on his lap after a busy day and yell that what he wore today was not suitable enough for him? !
Well, it would be fine if he ordered her around and took advantage of her, but he even had the guts to complain that the clothes she wore were not to his liking!
After thinking of this, La's blood pressure rose instantly, but after moving her body slightly, she felt like something was missing in her legs, and she calmed down again with a look of loneliness in her eyes.
Even though he's a bastard, he's still her only king!
183 The Sun's Choice (3k)
Neither Eldaran nor Audrey would know what kind of ups and downs this great Ra went through in his heart in these few short breaths.
No matter what, La hid his true feelings from Audrey and Eldaran.
In front of the two girls, La was still so intellectual and gentle.
La did not answer Eldaran's question about the Sun King's diligence, but turned to look at Audrey.
It was a look full of scrutiny, which made Audrey shrink back.
Because she felt that in La's gaze, she seemed to be completely seen through by him both mentally and physically.
Eldaran bowed slightly to La at this time, then backed away. Elves respect those who should be respected.
This is not out of awe of power or strength, but respect for the other person's ability or personality.
In the elf society, if you want to reach a certain position, there is only one way, and that is to become a person who is qualified for that position. There is no other way!
