Homo sapiens is a very interesting creature. When the elves handed over the choice of making a contract with the World Tree to the adult elves, the number of elves who chose to make a contract became very few, or even none. Think about it.
It is also normal. After getting used to a certain kind of life, someone would suddenly choose a life with more restrictions. Moreover, such a change has no meaning except trouble.
But when this right of choice suddenly changed, it became a privilege that only a few elites can possess. Only by becoming the Shenmu Guard can they sign a contract with the World Tree. Although once a contract is signed, the precepts must be followed meticulously, there are still countless young elves who pursue becoming
A fixed number of members of the Guard.
The benefit of the change in the relationship with the World Tree is that it liberated the productivity, creativity and destructive power of the elves. The elves even once ruled the Lost World and established a huge empire.
But the side effect that comes with it is that the World Tree seems to be degenerating, the incarnation no longer appears, and even the elves have lost the ability to communicate with the World Tree. Only elves of a certain special bloodline can still communicate with the World Tree.
.
Maybe the branches are still thick and lush, maybe people still dare not insult people under the shade, but except for the bloodline that became the royal family and a very few members of the sacred tree guard, the World Tree seems to have closed its heart and become a tree.
Pure plant.
In this regard, the elves in the kingdom did not know how to recover. At this point, they could only sigh deeply.
The news I got from the mouths of these old elves was completely different from what the wood elves said and what they imagined. As for the reason behind it, someone had a flash of inspiration and seemed to have some clues, but suddenly appeared at his feet.
The furry feeling dispelled his nascent thoughts. Lin looked at the kitten rubbing at his feet in surprise.
"Meow~."
Reaching out to grab the uninvited guest that was calling in a milky voice, Lin asked curiously: "Hey, little thing, how did you get in?"
In my impression, a group of armed elves didn't seal the outside tightly. Was there a mouse hole that allowed this kitten to chase in? It's just the action of holding the cat with one hand, but in the eyes of others, it is
With a puzzled expression, Lin asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you also surprised to see this tabby cat? Let me tell you first, I didn't smuggle it in. You have to ask yourselves."
"No, sir, you don't have anything in your hands," Luka Titov said.
Is this prime minister of the kingdom a liar, or... Lin turned his head, looked at Fen sitting next to him, and asked: "Didn't you see it too?"
The Lich looked at someone with an expression as if he saw an idiot. No matter how stupid that person is, he should know something. He looked back at the kitten he was holding in one hand and said: "Hey, little thing, what on earth are you doing?"
What is it?"
"Meow."
"May I have your name?"
"Meow."
"Meow, that's a pretty good name.──" A certain cat rolled his eyes, "──How did you get in?"
"Meow."
"Where are your parents?"
"Meow~."
Holding the armpits of the forelimbs with both hands, lift the kitten up. "Are you a male or a female?"
"Meow meow meow!" The kitten swung its lower limbs uncooperatively and tried to scratch someone's face with its back paws.
"Okay, okay. You want to ask me for help. If so, just meow."
This mottled-colored cat, who must still be of milk-drinking age, calmed down, tilted its little head, looked cute, and kept meowing. It looked like it was planning to play dumb to the end.
There was some speculation in his mind, how could he let this kitten pretend to be stupid? Lin smiled and asked: "Okay, I am very interested in what you are. So do you agree to let me dissect you? Oh, that is
Cut it open and study it. Meow if you agree, and keep meowing if you strongly agree."
The originally cute calico cat looked at the person in front of him with a pair of lifeless eyes, not daring to make any sound.
"Oh, aren't you going to pretend you don't understand? Do you know how to speak human language?"
"Meow meow."
"I don't understand. It's worthless. You'd better cook it and eat it. Cat meat, I heard Lao Guang said it has a very special taste, but it's a pity that I haven't had the chance to taste it until today."
The calico kitten stopped meowing this time and turned its head to bite the hand that grabbed it. Don’t look at the small size of this little thing. Its claws and teeth are strong enough. If someone is in pain, of course he will shake it away.
.The kitten that broke away nimbly ran across the table, trying to run away.
But how can someone easily let a small animal that has entered the field of vision run away? One flash, grabbing the skin at the back of the neck; another flash, and it returns to its original position.
This one-man show, of course, confused all the elves. They didn't understand the meaning of someone's operation at all. Especially the performance was so vivid, as if he really had something in his hand. But in the end, that
A technique that suddenly appears and disappears still scares this group of well-informed old elves. If such a technique is used in assassinations, who among them can guard against it?
Looking with interest at the empty place where someone was leaning on the table, Fen asked: "What's the reason for this? You can see it, but I can't. And I changed several ways of observation.
, but nothing was detected at all. Is it in consciousness? Or is it in the light frequency of a specific wavelength?" Of course she would not think that someone was cheating. This kind of deception is meaningless. Then the only possibility is
Next, the thing in his hand did avoid the sight of others in some way.
He pressed the kitten in his hand on the table. The suppressed kitten was lying on its back very respectfully, motionless and not meowing. However, its pair of black eyes were wandering restlessly.
Faced with Fen's question, Lin thought for a while and said: "This should be a characteristic of high-dimensional creatures. If it does not restrict its own information transmission, it will be like those indescribable things. Just take a look, and people will know it."
Everyone will be driven crazy by redundant and unprocessable information. But if he restrains himself, then if he does not exist in other people's cognition, he really does not exist."
"Can't you touch it?" Fen reached out and touched someone's suppressed object, and it turned out to be empty. But in Lin's eyes, it was the lich's hand that swept past, and the kitten meowed unhappily.
After making a sound, Fen asked doubtfully: "Then why can you?"
"Well, because he conveyed certain information to me, he established a relationship with me, allowing me to observe the part he conveyed. Of course, he recognized the information he conveyed in a way that I could understand.
But this connection is permanent. Once it is established, it can disappear unless he wants to disappear from my knowledge again. So I wonder if he can maintain this state, will he appear in more places?
In front of others, you may need to consider it. But there are no other ways."
Maybe the elves couldn't understand most of the conversation between the two magicians. But the part they could understand seemed to indicate that the human magician could see a certain existence. And it was very likely... "Could it be that... Can you see His Majesty Lahti?"
The unfamiliar name made Lin directly ask: "Lahti? Who?"
When several old elves mentioned this person, they all said in awe, "Guardian of the Kingdom, His Majesty the World Tree Lahti."
Looking at the well-behaved kitten being suppressed by his hand, Lin said: "Is he your World Tree? I'm not sure. Maybe he is just a little thing that ran from other worlds along the passage of the World Tree."
"Meow~."
Regarding this uncertain guess, someone suddenly thought of himself. How did he come to the Lost Land? Can he follow the same path back? When distracted, his hands naturally relaxed. Of course, the kitten that was pressed under his hands was scratched. Seeing this opportunity, he rushed out and looked at someone warily on the other side of the long table.
Regarding the escaped kitten, Lin looked at his empty hand and did not think about catching it again. Instead, he looked at the kitten with its forelimbs lowered and its buttocks raised high, ready to sprint at any time with a smirk on its face. cat.
Because he had guessed why he was invited to the Elf Kingdom, Lin You made some preparations in advance. At this time, he took out a magic stone that he had prepared long ago, which contained a magic stone related to the innate magic pattern of the World Tree. Introductory knowledge. Mainly some organized and summarized content, as well as explanations using mathematical methods.
This was originally a small gadget used to frustrate the elves and communicate with each other. If the other party made any unreasonable demands, he would throw out this magic stone to send the elves away. Now this magic stone is just used to seduce the little one in front of him. I don’t know what kind of kitten it is.
As soon as someone took out the magic stone, the kitten seemed to have noticed what was inside, staring straight at it without relaxing for a moment. It moved up, down, left and right as the person deliberately moved , the melon seeds in the little head are spinning.
Seeing this look, Lin couldn't help but smile. He stopped teasing the cat and gently threw the magic stone. Not only did the kitten stare at this action, but all the elves and Fen present also watched. The magic stone landed on the table again, and after a few bounces, it started to spin around. Only then did all the elves wake up and realized that they had been watching someone's one-man show for a long time.
Only the relatively calm old elf wanted to scold someone. But right in front of them, the swirling magic stone stopped suddenly. They vaguely saw a variegated kitten. , crossed his short forelimbs to cover the magic stone. Then he lowered his head and put the magic stone into his mouth.
Just when the kitten holding the magic stone in its mouth raised its head and wanted to swallow it, it realized that it had become the focus of everyone's attention.
Recognition is a mutual behavior. There is no one party who can see the other party without being discovered. People who have not established any relationship with the kitten are just a background in its eyes, just like the stones on the roadside. It's no different. Once a connection is established, the person who knows it seems to have come alive in its world, so it can also realize that it has been seen.
Pretending to swallow the magic stone as if nothing had happened, the Sanhua kitten remained cute, tilting its head and meowing in that milky voice: "Meow."
Then he jumped towards the edge of the table. His short limbs kicked hard, and the figure of the kitten in the air gradually faded. Just before landing, it disappeared from everyone's eyes.
At this time, someone said from the side: "In order for others to see things that do not exist, they must first have something they can observe as a medium to make people realize that something does exist. When the cognition is established, you can see the original
Something that no longer exists. Of course, this is not necessarily a good thing.”
