Chapter 37 Don't Run After School
Time slowly passed.
William and his party arrived safely at their destination without any drama.
The various parts of Blue Moon lake gradually combined to form a large lake. As they approached Blue Moon Town, their vision expanded.
As dozens of thousands of Elves resided in the town, it was definitely several times larger than the current Border Town.
However, apart from the main city, Dark Night City, the Blackleaf Elves had no city walls because they liked to stay in trees and liked completely free views. Elven wood elemental mages would often have knowledge of rare skills and inheritance.
They were able to plant magical seeds in the ground and use magic to germinate the seeds. As the trees grew, they could modify them into different types of treehouses.
Therefore, this amazing Elven city slowly appeared in everyone's eyes.
All they saw was…
Tall trees linked to each other, while every treehouse looked different and exquisite. These tree houses were built more than ten meters above the ground and various pots of colorful flowers lined the balconies, looking extremely beautiful.
As for the branches, they were like paths linking the treehouses together. Elves walked agilely along the tree branches. Even if they started to run, they wouldn't fall.
It was like a monkey climbing a tree. It was instinct…
There were also many vines curled around and under the branches. These vines were turned into swings, ladders, and hammocks using magic.
The Elves lived on the south side. Blue Moon Lake was on the north side. Every morning, they would open the window and see the bright Blue Moon Lake, starting their days on a great note.
The arrival of William and his party attracted the gazes of several Elves. Some Elven children, who were playing by the lake, looked curiously at William. One of them said, without any regard, "Uncle, why aren't you dirty?"
"…"
William turned around and glanced at his men that looked slightly pitiful. He immediately used a comforting gaze.
With that, he got off the horse and walked in front of the little girl, patting her head. "Because you're shorter than me, so you wouldn't know."
"…"
The Elven girl was confused now. She really didn't understand what he meant. She couldn't even understand what this Uncle's reply had got to do with her question.
However, by the time she regained her senses, William had already left with his men.
Thinking of the fish again, she continued to play and caught them with her friends in Blue Moon Lake…
The Elves in Blue Moon Town weren't too surprised to see the armored elves.
As a species of long-lived Elves, they wouldn't hug each other loudly in excitement even if they suddenly met friends that they hadn't seen in decades.
Of course, unless their relationship was extremely good, they would usually only nod and drink some fruit wine, discussing any interesting things they had achieved over the past few decades.
Their long lifespan, they were used to living leisurely.
They liked to appreciate art, enjoy the beauty of nature, and enjoy life properly, instead of going to kill others.
This also caused the older Elves to have more experience in these aspects. In fact, they could be so good that it could send shivers down one's spine.
A real Elven blacksmith could become a Grandmaster or Legendary as long as they could live up to a thousand years. As long as he really liked this hobby, it didn't matter how low his talent was.
After all, someone once said that even a pig could become a god after living for ten thousand years.
Even if it didn't become a god, a pig that had lived for ten thousand years would be a legend itself.
And one of the ten biggest unsolved mysteries in Gods voted by players:
How many Legendary professions did the Elves have in terms of the living occupations?
No one knew the exact number but there were a lot.
It was no doubt that older Elven warriors were stronger. Even if their battle experience, skills, battle energy, and magic ability never changed and they couldn't increase their level anymore, their personal attributes would continue to grow with time.
Just like how old Giant Dragons were very strong, no one liked to provoke Elves that were over a thousand years old.
These undying Elves were more intelligent than human geniuses. Not to mention, their race name included the word intelligence.
They had experienced too many wars and challenges in life. When they really wanted to do something, they would definitely make their opponent lose hope.
This was also one reason the Elves were able to remain in power and were still one of the most important races on the continent, as long as they didn't want to conquer it.
…
After his party arrived at the center of the Elven town and had settled their horses, Lautner led William to find Blue Moon Town's executor.
Because of how terrible they looked, the other warriors were invited into the houses of the well-mannered, friendly Elves.
After all, Elves who didn't live in human society rarely paid attention to things like wealth, so it was very normal to receive their people warmly.
Of course, the Elves were rich to begin with, so they didn't really care about such things…
Also, the Elves all liked to depend on themselves. As long as they were in the forest, food was not a real problem and they could find more and more treasures…
When William and Lautner arrived at the center of Blue Moon Town, they looked up at the giant thing that was at least three hundred meters tall.
This was a Moon Tree. Its roots were thick and strong, its length at least ten meters long. There were no less than a hundred tree houses on it.
What was most shocking was that…
Every night…
The entire Moon Tree would glow faintly…
It was very clear that this was where the Moonlight Elves lived. The tallest and prettiest tree house at the top of the tree was probably the house of the Moonlight Elven little princess.
"Tsk, you are indeed treated like a Princess…" William suddenly felt a little bitter, though it wasn't for himself. It was for the previous William.
"She is the Moonlight Elven youngest princess after all. You have to know that her youngest sibling was older than her by 800 years.
"Now that the Moonlight Elven King is old and is almost returning to the arms of the World Tree, why would he be unhappy with such a daughter?" Lautner pouted.
He seemed to want William to understand the difference between them. After all, this was the daughter of an Elven king…
William nodded slowly. He wasn't that unhappy…
He merely looked up and walked into the tree hole next to the tree trunk. As the residence of an Elven Princess, did they really want the little princess to wear a dress and climb a tree, letting a bunch of people admire the view under the Princess' skirt?
Of course, they had to climb the stairs!
After all, this tree was so thick…
The two of them entered the tree hole but were not stopped by anyone.
However, it was because they were both Elves…
No one could even tell that William was a half-Elven…
This was the key.
If other races came here, they would be watched closely.
Of course, after the two of them climbed up the tree, a handsome male Moonlight Elf stopped them with a smile.
Moonlight Elves had silver hair and their eyes shone with silver light. He said, "Hello, I'm called Arthur. I'm the executor of Blue Moon Town. May I ask who you are?
"What do you want to do or need help with?"
Seeing that it was just the right person, William hesitated slightly before he said straightforwardly, "I am William Blackleaf. I have a few hundred kilograms of mythril I would like to sell!"
"A few hundred kilograms of mythril?" Arthur froze. As her Majesty's knight and her executor, he never thought that mythril was sold in hundreds of kilograms these days.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something.
He immediately widened his eyes and glanced at William…
William shrugged his shoulders innocently.
Arthur, who was originally smiling, slowly changed his expression and pointed directly at William. "Mythril? Wait a minute, I'll call someone over now. Don't run away…"
Lautner and William watched as Arthur ran away quickly.
They glanced at each other.
"Does he want to do business? But why did he ask me not to run?" William scratched his head, his throat dry as he suddenly felt as if he was in primary school and someone had asked him not to run after school.
Lautner patted his shoulder. Don't worry, the reason he asked you not to run after school was at most a beating.
