"The elves rarely have spiritual ores. I don't know whether it's because of lack of mineral deposits or because they haven't been mined at all, so I need to get some spiritual ores from Trais. The previous white roses have been almost consumed, and the refining furnace is a huge waste of money.
, after advancing to the fourth level, the demand for spiritual energy is higher, so you must reserve some."
"I have no need for magic weapons. As for firearms, I'm not used to them either... The only things that are relatively lacking at the moment are cultivation techniques of level 4 or above, as well as superpowers..."
Although these can also be exchanged through Jiu Si, but... Cheng Lin still prepared to be prepared and prepared more trump cards. If he could have the opportunity to get the skills and powers in advance, there was no reason not to take them.
"But it is conceivable that the Secret Service will definitely have some reservations in this area."
These "privately enriched" transactions accounted for only a small part. Cheng Lin's heart was not dark enough, and most of them were still thinking about the elves.
Books account for a large proportion of the items traded. Although the written language is unintelligible, since the elves have a long lifespan, they can slowly analyze and learn Chinese.
Human beings can use their wisdom to figure out the meaning of strange-shaped oracle bones, but there is no reason why elves can't do it.
"As long as they can digest some of the knowledge in these books, it will be enough to cause revolutionary changes in the entire civilization."
In addition to books, there are also a large number of industrial products and manufacturing drawings.
This is to upgrade the industrial level of the Elven Court, as well as a large number of civilian supplies and entertainment content. However, due to the lack of electricity, there is very little room for choice.
Then there are all kinds of weird things, such as toys and food.
The rest is completed with gold.
"Wow."
After turning the last page, Cheng Lin put the booklet on the table. There was still time, and with the continued communication between the two parties, the list might be expanded, but this was no longer something he needed to consider.
"The rest is just waiting."
Cheng Lin leaned on the solid wood seat, stared at the gorgeous chandelier hanging on the roof, and murmured. Then, exhaustion and sleepiness came over him like a tide and overwhelmed him.
…
The second day after the projection solidified.
The whole city is getting busier and busier, and several more helicopters have been added. They are probably reinforcements from the local military district that the Special Intelligence Department has temporarily communicated with. Cheng Lin also came forward to coordinate several times in the morning. In the afternoon, the whole process became smoother and smoother, and everything
Everything proceeds in an orderly manner.
Cheng Lin no longer needs to intervene.
It's another evening.
Burning red clouds piled on the horizon, wisps of them, shining brightly on the faces of the busy people below.
"well."
Standing on a corridor in the city.
Cheng Lin put his hands behind his hands and looked at the busy scene below, sighing softly. This reminded him of the busy dock and port.
"What are you sighing for?" Suddenly, a familiar voice floated from behind. Cheng Lin turned around and saw Ellu holding a wand walking towards her. Her pure eyes were like a mirror lake, reflecting a figure shrouded in black robes.
figure.
"Sigh? Is there any?" Cheng Lin was stunned for a moment and said.
"Of course." Ellu said seriously.
Cheng Lin smiled and said with a bitter smile: "I didn't even notice it myself."
"Is there anything that's bothering you?" Ellu walked closer and asked gently.
Cheng Lin held the railing with both hands, shook his head, and then nodded: "Not really... everything is fine. There is no war. Everyone is doing business in harmony. It's really good."
"Then why sigh?"
"Well...probably..." Cheng Lin looked at the setting sun in the western horizon, "The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's almost dusk."
Ailu was confused for a moment and didn't seem to understand. After a moment, he said tentatively: "Although I don't understand much, I can guess something about the fusion of worlds...I mean the projection is about to end, right?"
"I don't know, but according to experience, there should be some time left. Maybe it can last for a day, maybe not."
"So... when the projection disappears, the God Envoy will leave?"
"Yes, not just me, but them and all humans will leave, and everything will return to the way it was before." Cheng Lin nodded.
"...I experienced this kind of separation once more than a hundred years ago." Elu said suddenly.
Cheng Lin was silent.
He knew that this elf girl was referring to the time when the "evil god" left. At first, he thought it was a farewell, but he thought that there would be a day when we see each other again, but...
"This time it's over, it's really goodbye... right?" Cheng Lin suddenly felt a little unsure.
After all, he was not sure about the deduction procedure.
Who knows...whether there will be any more tricks in the future?
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Since I no longer need to take care of this place, we have to hurry up and do some business while the projection is still there." Cheng Lin exhaled and spoke in a higher tone.
"Doing business...? Let's..." Ellu was stunned for a moment.
"Have you forgotten my real mission here?" Cheng Lin smiled.
"Ah! Seed of Life!" Elu whispered.
"Yes, now, can you take me to pick it up?"
The elf girl nodded vigorously and said, "Of course!"
…
"Chirp!"
The Seed of Life is hidden in the World Tree, so they still need to rush back to the capital.
Elu ordered to go down, and soon a soldier brought a blue bird over, and the two rode together. Elu gently tapped the blue bird's head with the wand, and the guy chirped, fluttering its wings to the west, like a black silhouette.
, running towards the red and fiery sunset.
"That's how I flew with the gods from Krum to World Tree. Even the route was almost the same."
Standing on the back of the blue bird, today's elf girl is no longer the little girl who fearfully hugged the bird's neck and clutched the feathers for fear of falling. Instead, she can stand calmly on it, spread her hands, squint, and remember.
A big girl.
"Well... the teacher didn't say that," Cheng Lin finally took off his mask, revealing his true face, and looked at Ai Lu quietly, standing in front of him with his arms spread out, with a somewhat emotional expression. After a moment, he hesitated and said
, "If it's convenient, can you tell me about that journey?"
"... Of course, as long as you want to hear it... remember that the gods had just saved the city of Krum, and then took me with them to purify the World Tree. At the beginning... I didn't understand anything..."
wind.
In the sunset.
Cheng Lin stood quietly, listening to Ai Lu narrating the story from another perspective. For him, that journey had only been a few days, but for Ai Lu, that memory was already deep enough.
Buried for more than a hundred years...
When she finished telling this story, the two finally came to the huge "tree hole" above the World Tree again.
Riding the blue bird, it flew directly into the tree hole. The gem on the top of the magic wand in Ellu's hand emitted a soft light, illuminating the path ahead. After a long time, it finally stopped.
"Here we are."
Ellu said.
Cheng Lin raised his head and once again saw the seed suspended in the huge space, emitting holy white light.
