Speaking these words, the wishing elf Rainier learned the etiquette of ancient courts and gave a tribute to John. Seeing this little thing as he looked like a little demeanor, John couldn't help but feel amused.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. Tell me the story of your elves."
Rainier was skeptical, but he still spoke to John with questions and answers.
When he saw John at first, he was actually very scared because this was a powerful divine life that could only be seen on earth during the period of the gods in ancient humans. He was basically a powerful man of strength like an ancient hero.
Although it is a magical creature and has something to do with divine creatures, the only thing worthy of praise is the limited ability to make wishes. You can be above the mortals because they have no way to use it. As a wishing elf who has mastered the power of the law,
Even if the nuclear egg explodes, it cannot be killed.
But facing a strong man like John, he can strangle himself to death with just one finger.
After listening to Rainier's story, John realized that the origin of the wishing elves is actually quite interesting. They are not real flesh and blood lives that reproduce from nature, but magical elves that are born from fantasy.
The elves originated from the fusion of world rules and the fantasy of intelligent life. They were close relatives with natural spirits and spirits, which were born in nature. However, as the elves gradually learned to live and had their own civilization.
It began to be semi-individualized and developed into different kinds of elves.
Among them, the wishing elves are the one that maintains the most life level of spirits. Many elves and monsters have evolved into half-energy flesh and blood bodies, which can reproduce with humans, and have given birth to many half-elves and mixed-blood species with extraordinary bloodlines.
.
This situation is common in the multiverse, which means that the elves in the main world were born in this way at the beginning. All elves are born in the natural law creations, and can be said to be secondary products of innate gods.
The reason why the elves in his body is called the extraordinary bloodline of the Silver Race is the same as its source.
So John became more interested in looking at Rainier's eyes, which made the wishing elf shudder.
"Master, do I have anything to do for you?"
Faced with the humble attitude of the wishing elf, John certainly would not take ruthless measures, but just smiled at it and said:
"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. You just need to cooperate with me to do some experiments..."
Although John smiled kindly, Rainier didn't know what, as if he was facing the great devil in hell. He was so scared that he couldn't beat him, and he didn't dare to run away, so he could only obediently cooperate with John to make trouble.
.
John first checked the signs of the wishing elves and took a little Rainier's blood. He found that the blood of the wishing elves was not the blood in the usual sense, but was more like a product of energy in a liquefied state, exposed to the air very much.
In a short time, it will evaporate into an invisible existence and disappear.
"interesting!"
This is the first time John has seen this situation.
He found that the blood of this fantasy elves contains a large amount of energy and law-realized products, which are similar but different from divine nature, and are more like a secondary divine power.
He quietly collected some through the system, and the results showed that this was an extremely complex composite law power, which involved many laws. To summarize it in one sentence, it was a power similar to "fantasy comes true", that is, if you master it
If this power is upgraded to divinity, then in the future, you may be able to achieve priesthoods such as "fantasy", "creation" or "reality" and become a full-time god of wishes.
Therefore, the value of this law power cannot be said to be low, but for John, who already possesses several powerful and practical divinity, it is just icing on the cake.
From the weak combat power of the wishing elves, we can see that this path is not easy to walk.
And if you really need to rely on wishes to achieve everything, including fighting against the enemy, then at least you must be able to overcome all enemies in every period. The omniscient and omnipotent have been recognized as a refutation in the mysticism of the main world, and it is not at all
What is possible is that even the powerful divine power of the main world is impossible. Even the legendary Creator, God and God, are only able to achieve limited omniscience and omnipotence in the universe he created himself, and still cannot achieve omniscience and omnipotence without that environment.
So John decisively gave up on this extraordinary path that seemed promising, but in fact the road was full of thorns.
After studying the original body of the wishing elves, he began to study why the wishing elves collected gold coins to make wishes for mortals.
Faced with this question, Rainier answered in a proper tone:
"Of course it's for eating! Humans have to eat to live, and we elves also have to eat. Of course, our ethnic group is quite special. We don't need to obtain energy from food, but draw nutrients from human beliefs..."
Through the elves' narration, John realized that this ancient gold coins that can be used to make wishes are a medium for wishing elves that carry the power of faith. The wishing elves belong to the spirit creatures and are born to feed on the power of creatures' wishes.
The pure faith power generated by these mortals when making wishes will be attached to the gold coins used as medium, just like the Middle Earth gods need incense, Western gods need prayer, worship and other sacrificial activities. They only carry the faith.
The power of thought is transmitted to the medium where the gods are.
"In addition, why do we choose ancient gold coins? It is because the old coins have been held and touched by countless people, and they have accumulated a certain amount of faith. They are delicious supplements for us. Gold coins are the most expensive coins.
, This power of belief will be more pure, and as for gold itself, it has no value to us elves."
John nodded. For him now, the value of gold is far less expensive than when he had not mastered extraordinary power in his previous life. At most it is a trading currency and metal material.
"I don't make things difficult for you. I have some questions. Maybe it involves some big shots. Let's follow the rules and follow each question with a gold coin. I think there should be no limit on me like a mortal that only allows one wish, right?"
As he said that, John took out more than a dozen ancient gold coins circulating in the main world.
The special power of belief that exists on ancient gold coins in different worlds made Rainier's eyes wide open and his saliva was almost gone.
This is like getting used to fried pork and braised pork. Suddenly, one of the Tianren family brought you a table of roasted whole lamb with grassland specialties, making it feel particularly fresh and surprising.
Rainier asked in disbelief, covering his mouth:
“Are all these for me?”
John nodded.
"So you like it, then my first question is, how many monarchs are there in hell?"
