"So it’s this..."
Sasa finally found sothing related to the enchanted gem in the library of Gass City.
The elves described in books—
Secret realms occasionally produce so ’treasures,’ which the elves call ’secret treasures.’
Secret treasures always possess so astonishing power; so can expedite plant growth, such as shortening the maturation cycle of a plant from three years to just three months; others are tougher than anything, unbreakable even under strong attacks; so can even swap souls within the body!
The enchanted gem amplified the power of the Bone-Chilling Bear, elevating it to a catastrophe level, thus considered a ’secret treasure.’
As to why Blue Star had not discovered secret treasures before, according to the book’s description, the elves explained—
Secret treasures don’t exist in the secret realm from the beginning; more than ten thousand years ago, no secret treasures were produced in Alfheim’s secret realms. Only when the link between the secret realm and the world itself becos close to a certain extent will secret treasures be produced.
This ans that the Abyss on Blue Star is now much closer to Blue Star, which is why secret treasures appear in the Abyss.
Each secret realm in Alfheim will produce two or three secret treasures, and wherever they appear, they will be found by demons and carried with them.
If the elves exploring the secret realm search carefully, they can gather all the secret treasures of a secret realm.
This implies that besides the Crimson Abyss, other abysses on Blue Star might have already nurtured secret treasures; the hunters in those abysses just haven’t discovered them yet.
Or perhaps they’ve discovered them but haven’t publicly shared the secret treasure information like Crimson No.2 did, or maybe they don’t understand the value of the secret treasures at all and directly sold them.
As the elves have coexisted with the secret realms for over ten thousand years, their understanding is far ahead of modern humans.
Sasa closed the book, put it back in its place, then descended the stairs and returned to the dormitory arranged by the Lord of Gass City for the human trade convoy.
Since humans always co to stay in Gass City for a few days, the Lord prepared several houses as fixed dormitories, and each ti Sasa and others leave, soone would be sent to clean them, awaiting their next visit.
Through collaboration with humans, every street in Gass City is now lit with street lamps, and sewing machines have entered thousands of households.
The elves, as if filled with artistic aura from legends, and the tailors who ca along with the convoy to Alfheim marveled at the elves’ attire.
This ti, when the convoy returns to Blue Star, they will take away a batch of elf-made clothes, which are expected to sell for a high price on Blue Star.
Sasa had already discussed with the Lord of Gass City that next ti they visit, they will bring so chanical farm tools to make planting and harvesting easier for the elves.
Although the food grown on the farmland outside the city is enough for all the elves in Gass City, it doesn’t allow them to truly live a prosperous life.
Therefore, the Lord of Gass City wants to purchase farm tools from Blue Star and expand the barrier to increase farmland area.
Only when you have abundant food at hand can you talk about other things.
When Sasa returned to the dormitory, she saw Julia leaning against the courtyard wall, seemingly waiting for soone.
"Julia?"
Hearing Sasa’s voice, Julia looked up at her and pursed her lips.
Seeing her expression, Sasa knew Julia had sothing she wanted to say.
Taking out the key, she opened the courtyard door and invited Julia inside, saying, "Let’s talk inside if you have sothing to say."
Julia obediently followed behind Sasa into the courtyard prepared by the Lord of Gass City for the human trade convoy.
Behind a garden, there was a large house, but now only Sasa, Yulia, and a few engineers and tailors lived there.
To help clean this large house, Sasa brought along a few smart machines when they ca.
Although Alfheim’s magical environnt is similar to the Abyss, the magic here is ’ownerless,’ aning smart machines won’t be infected and betray humans if they co into contact with magic.
Besides, smart machines are only used within the city, where the barrier filters so magic, creating a suitable magic environnt for elves. This level of magic won’t cause ’awakening’ in the smart machines.
Julia curiously watched a sweeping robot pass by her side until the smart machine moved away, then retracted her gaze.
Sasa led Julia to the reception room, and using her personal terminal, she sent a ssage to a smart machine butler, asking it to prepare a pot of tea for them.
Then, Sasa invited Julia to sit down and asked, "Julia, were you waiting for at the entrance earlier?"
Julia nodded, "Yes."
Sasa asked again, "Then what’s the matter you want to discuss with ?"
Julia was silent for a while, took a deep breath, and resolutely asked Sasa, "I want to ask, is Yan Luo a Saint?"
The reception room suddenly beca quiet.
Only the sound of breathing and heartbeats of one human and one elf filled the silence.
Julia’s breaths beca sowhat rapid, and her heart rate slightly increased.
In this seemingly stagnant silence, Julia and Sasa silently looked at each other.
Click!
The butler smart machine opened the reception room door, entered, and opened its chest to take out a pot of tea and two teacups.
Ti seed to flow again as Sasa leaned forward and poured a cup of tea for Julia, almost as if talking to herself, saying, "Looks like soone accidentally let it slip."
The matter of Yan Luo being a ’Saint’ is now universally known; there are many people who entered Alfheim this ti, with complex backgrounds, so it’s possible soone inadvertently let it slip.
"No, I figured it out myself."
Julia shook her head and said, "It was the last ti Yan Luo ca to Alfheim when I guessed he might be a Saint."
At that ti?
Sasa was sowhat surprised.
Because at that ti, Yan Luo hadn’t revealed his true identity to the world, people only knew he had an unusual constitution.
With just that, there was no way to determine Yan Luo was a ’Saint.’
Sasa picked up the teacup in front of her, blew the steam floating above the tea, and asked Julia, "Why did you suddenly bring this up?"
Actually, Sasa already had a guess in her heart.
"I want to receive Yan Luo’s blood reward!"
Julia’s answer hit right on Sasa’s guess.
Julia looked at Sasa with sincere eyes, almost pleadingly, saying, "Any elf desires the Saint’s blood. Receiving the Saint’s blood greatly accelerates an elf’s growth rate. It used to take us hundreds of years to reach our growth limit, but with the Saint’s blood, that ti can be shortened to less than ten years.
"Even elves want to shorten their growth ti because the faster their growth, the stronger they might beco!"
This was the first ti Sasa learned.
It turns out the elves’ power growth system works like this.
Although they are naturally equipped with casting ability, able to grow stronger through ditation, their growth is slow and requires endurance.
Don’t be fooled by Julia and Suniya being young, reaching the warrior rank in just a few decades, but they might need another hundred years to reach master rank.
Apprentice, Warrior, Hero, Master, General, Great Monarch, Saint—these are the rough strength divisions among the Elf Race, where warrior rank corresponds to Sequence 5, Great Monarch corresponds to Sequence One, and Saint’s existence exceeds the Blue Star people’s expectations, beyond the current sequence system.
Julia and Suniya are considered geniuses among the elves; generally, elves need to be at least ninety to reach the hero rank.
This is under their diligent cultivation.
Many elves never put much effort into cultivating; most die at the warrior rank.
Thus, although the Elf Race is entirely made up of the Extraordinary, their actual warti potential isn’t high.
Julia’s craving for the Saint’s blood is to beco stronger.
"If Yan Luo is willing to grant his blood, I am willing to leave Gass City, join your tribe, and beco a concubine by the Saint’s side," Julia stated.
Sasa felt, Julia... might have misunderstood sothing.
