Chapter 3394 The Current Situation of Sea Elves Understand
As the Riptide dived to a certain depth, the exterior scene projected into the cabin was almost only a deep darkness, and all the mages in the cabin were a little uneasy.
Even Xia Duo felt a little uncontrollably depressed in such a scene, but he did not turn off the external projection in the cabin, but took the initiative to talk to Meira, in this way to dilute the dark environment on the seabed.
The depression caused.
"How long does it take to get from Sinaria to Belluno?" Chateau asked.
"Take the Riptide as an example. Under normal circumstances, it takes about two hours to travel at full speed. If you are lucky and can catch up with the downstream ocean current throughout the journey, you may be able to advance by about half an hour."
After hearing that the whole journey would take at least an hour and a half, Chateau couldn't help but sigh at the remoteness of Belluno. After all, he now knew that the speed of the Riptide was no slower than modern ships on Earth.
If he also calculated the vertical height underwater, he could roughly determine that the straight-line distance between Belluno and Sinaria on the surface was approximately 5,600 miles.
It's just a little longer than the distance from Sinaria to Ilfarang.
Of course, it doesn't take an hour and a half to go from Sinaria to Ilfaran, because the magic ship can't only sail underwater, it can fly directly there and back.
In addition, it is a faster way to teleport the magic circle.
Although Belluno and Sinaria have established a relatively close relationship, the two sides have not established an effective teleportation circle. A considerable part of the reason for this is probably due to the estrangement caused by the long-term differentiation between sea elves and surface elves.
"Tell me about Belluno! What kind of city is that?"
"Belluno is located on a plain on the seabed. There are at least three long-term ocean currents nearby. These ocean currents provide Belluno with food to survive. Of course, Belluno also raises fish, kelp and other things in captivity on the submarine plain.
, but food is probably still scarce compared to the ground, and the thing we trade the most with Belluno is probably food."
Speaking of this, Meira seemed to be in a low mood and couldn't help but reveal her true feelings, "Compared to Belluno, Sinaria's supplies are rich, but compared to the real continent, they are far behind."
Already."
"Keep talking."
"yes."
Mera calmed down her emotions and continued to introduce, "Belluno has no natural enemies on the seabed. The biggest enemy is actually the environment. Although sea elves can move freely underwater, they are not born marine creatures after all.
"Their infants and young children cannot adapt to the underwater environment. Even in the water element realm, they still need long-term care from caregivers. They have to wait until they are about 10 years old before they can adapt to normal life in the water element realm.
"And if they want to truly adapt to the underwater world without magic assistance, they must at least wait until their bodies are fully mature, which is around 30 to 50 years old.
"Usually at this age, sea elves have already become mages. Without the power of magic, sea elves cannot stay away from Belluno. There are too many accidents that can kill them."
Upon hearing such a description, Shado immediately had an initial impression of the sea elves - they were strong-willed and might even be very warlike. At the same time, all the people were magicians and had great potential for war.
Fortunately, the environment under the sea is harsh, which is not conducive to survival, and is not conducive to the reproduction of sea elves after the transformation of the original land-based race. Otherwise, based on Xia Duo's understanding of the elves, those sea elves will most likely try to conquer the ocean or even counterattack the land.
Of course, Xia Duo's judgment is somewhat subjective, especially when the sea elves and the Illuminati are involved, so he will naturally bring more scrutiny.
"Since the seabed is so inconvenient, have the sea elves ever thought about returning to live on land?" Xia Duo asked again.
He had already understood when he arrived that the current sea elves are more similar to amphibians. They can live underwater for a long time and can also leave the water. They just need to regularly moisturize their skin that has adapted to the marine environment.
And this is not an insurmountable technical difficulty for Belluno, a universal mage.
In other words, Belluno's sea elves can actually return to live on land. Compared with the seabed, land has many advantages for them, who are originally land creatures.
Regarding this question, after Meira was silent for a while, she gave an answer that surprised Sha Duo——
"I think the Belluno elves may have developed a self-exile idea, which makes them not want to return to the land, or even be unwilling to contact terrestrial creatures."
"Why is this happening?" Xia Duo continued to ask.
Meera continued to be silent, when Master Tai Lun suddenly interjected: "I think it may be the rejection of us land relatives that makes them resist life on land."
"Why do you say that?"
This time it was Tyron's turn to be in trouble, but under Shado's gaze, he still told the truth: "Actually, after Ilfaran conducted trade with the sea elves for a period of time, they made a request to us -
—
"We just wanted to build a nursery off the coast of Irfaran, but we rejected it. Since then, although the trade between the two parties has remained the same, there has never been a breakthrough in the relationship between the two parties."
"Has Cynaria ever received such a request?" Shado asked the question to Meira again.
In response to such a question, Mera's face changed for a while, and finally she gritted her teeth and nodded. After all, Ilfarang admitted that they had received such a request. As they have a closer relationship with Belluno, how could they not have received it?
?
"Indeed, we also received Belluno's request for establishing a nursery off the coast of Cynaria a long time ago, but at that time Cynaria itself had not been able to establish a foothold in the Moon Shadow Islands, and of course it could not ask Belluno for it.
What to promise.
"When Sinaria had enough control over the offshore waters, Belluno never made such a request again."
The reasons are all the same. Xia Duo actually wants to ask one more question. As a caring ally - not to mention allies, but friends who have helped you, can't you take the initiative to be friends if the other party doesn't tell them?
Do something?
However, his trip was not to investigate why Sinaria or Elfaran did not provide Belluno with an offshore nurturing environment, but to track down clues about the sea elves related to the Illuminati.
In this case, of course there is no need to support Belluno.
But from Tyron, Mera, and the previous female official of the Cynaria Palace, Shado also had a relatively complete understanding of the sea elves, enough that he had a certain degree of understanding of the sea elves' choice to join the Illuminati.
.
It’s true that these land relatives don’t regard sea elves as elves, so let’s just destroy them all! ()
