Chapter 273: A Shocking Truth
"Your Majesty......"
While Chu Heng was thinking, Liana suddenly interrupted his train of thought, and Chu Heng asked with some puzzlement, "What's the matter, Liana?" ”
"If Your Majesty is in any trouble, perhaps...... The elves can help Your Majesty. Liana said with a slurrel.
Hearing this, Chu Heng was a little inexplicable, the elf clan did have a lot of strong people, but they were basically almost dead in the battle of the elf royal court, and even if they survived, there were only a few ninth-level and tenth-level powerhouses, this kind of power may be very strong in the Iss world, but with the strength of the current Zerg, they can't be used at all.
Liana stared at Chu Heng's eyes for a while, as if she had mustered up the courage to suddenly say: "Your Majesty may think that the elf clan is simply unable to resist the enemy of the current Zerg, but in fact, this is not the real strength of the elf clan......"
"What do you mean?" Chu Heng was very surprised that Liana would say these words, what does it mean that this is not the real strength of the elf clan? What is the true strength of the elves?
"Your Majesty misunderstood, I'm not saying that the elves still hide the strong, but...... I can't explain this matter in a few words. Liana didn't seem to know what to say.
Seeing Liana's distressed cute appearance, Chu Hengle was happy, and the previous gloomy atmosphere was also swept away: "Then let's start from the beginning!" ”
"Your Majesty, remember what I just said, even if the elven clan still has so many elven powerhouses in ancient times, it will also decline." Liana asked.
Chu Heng nodded, with the temperament of the elf clan, this is indeed the case. Even if it is strong for a while, it cannot last.
"Didn't Your Majesty doubt that the strength of the elven clan in history has always fluctuated with the strength of this world?" Liana asked again.
"What do you mean?" Chu Heng suddenly came back to his senses, the strength of the elf clan was indeed very strange, although it could not compete with the Reenigian dragon clan in ancient times, its strength was terrifyingly strong. It is said that there are as many as a thousand powerhouses at the ninth and tenth levels, and with such a number of strong people, even the Reneguia dragon clan did not dare to underestimate it at that time, but after the battle to destroy the dragon, the elven clan immediately declined, and its strength was even less than one-tenth of its peak.
This may have something to do with the fact that the elves fell too many strong people during the Dragon Slaying War, but it is indeed a bit strange that such a powerful elf clan has collapsed because of this. You must know that the Thunderbolt Titan clan also participated in the Battle of the Dragon Slayer, and they suffered heavy losses at the beginning, but later they became the number one force in the continent, and the Elf Clan, as the main force of the Dragon Slaying War, should have reaped the fruits of victory like the Thunderbolt Titans. But the fact is that the status of the elves in the Isis Continent is still half-dead, neither the strongest nor too weak, and they are always in the middle and upper ranks.
This status has lasted from antiquity to the present day, and has hardly changed. It's as if the elves are constantly changing with their surroundings......
"Actually, I only woke up to this a while ago, because I was bored in my spare time and taught magic to a newborn elf. At first the elves were playful and did not want to learn, but when I said that His Majesty wanted her to study well, she changed her attitude, and the cardinals worshipped His Majesty as if they were gods. These little elves, who are like blank sheets of paper, naturally obey His Majesty's words. ”
"And then?" Chu Heng came to be interested.
It only took her half an hour to learn to meditate. In two hours, he became a first-class magic apprentice...... Half a month later, she had mastered all the magic below the second level. Liana said with a solemn expression.
"This ...... Half a month to become a second-level magician, this elf is a genius? Chu Heng asked in surprise.
"I thought so at the time, but then I taught another elf magic in the same way, and she became a third-level magician in just ten days......"
Hearing this, Chu Heng sensed that something was wrong, one elf is like this, maybe it can be said that he is a genius, and the two are also like this, so what does it mean?
"I went to the Temple of Life to pray and reflect on the moon god, and it was only after the millennia that I had experienced that I discovered a fact that many elves probably knew. It's just that they don't want to admit it when habit has become natural. ”
"What facts?"
"The elves have a cultivation talent that is far beyond this world, but without the pressure of the external environment, the elves are not willing to learn at all. Because of the teachings of the moon god, the elves are the darlings of nature. If you pursue power excessively, you will lose yourself, so the natural spirit will naturally not deliberately cultivate. In the past thousand years, including me, I have basically never really deliberately cultivated, and like all elves, I spend my time raising flowers and plants, weaving clothes, and pursuing nature......" Chu Heng was stunned when Liana told the so-called truth, he never thought that the elves would be like this.
"Weird, right? Maybe you shouldn't be surprised, after staying in the Elven Court for so long, have you ever seen the elves cultivate? Maybe there is, but it's three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, they won't be interested in anything else except playing, I can say that I have worked hard to train an elven army, and I also promised that the Horned Eagle Legion would have half of the rest time every year before they agreed to join, and even after joining the Horned Eagle Legion, they still went their own way, riding the Horned Eagle Beast every day, saying that it was better to go on patrol than to go to the mountains and rivers......"
The elf clan is not strong enough because their talent is not good, they have an endless lifespan and are not as fast as humans, this Chu Heng also doubted, after all, Chu Heng did not believe that the Moon God clan would create such an inexplicable race as the elf clan for no reason, that is, they would not teach them the knowledge of biological civilization, nor give them super cultivation talents, so what was they created for?
Chu Heng once suspected that this should be related to the creation of KEY and the study of the life field by the Moon God Clan, and the Mother Tree of Life, which can create elves, has a powerful energy conversion ability that even KEY does not have...... But then Chu Heng found that this explanation didn't work at all, maybe the reason why he took it for granted was that he was misled by some factor, at this moment Chu Heng seemed to feel the invisible thin threads pulling his body again, and he was the marionette, a marionette who acted according to other people's wishes.
"Vess? KEY? How many things are true, and how many are you unwilling to tell me? But that's okay, you, who have been silent all along, have finally revealed some clues. Chu Heng thought silently.
At this moment, Chu Heng finally understood the origin of the elven clan's strange strength, the cultivation speed of the elven clan was not inferior to that of the Isis Star humans, or far surpassed the Isis Star humans, because not every Isis Star human had cultivation talents. If they wish, with their infinite lifespan, almost every elf can become a powerhouse above level 9. Even if they had the right cultivation techniques and magical knowledge, their cultivation speed would not be inferior to that of any cultivation civilization in the universe.
But such a gifted race is unwilling to cultivate because of the "teaching" of the moon god Weiss, those elves who have been instilled by the elders since childhood have also inherited the stubborn, arrogant and unwilling to cultivate personality of their ancestors, they would rather sleep on huge leaves for a whole day than meditate on the spot for a minute, but it is such an extremely playful race that has given birth to countless strong people, because they only need a little effort to become shocking powerhouses.
Although the number of elves in ancient times is huge, it is not much more than the number of elves thousands of years ago, but in ancient times, there were thousands of elf powerhouses above level nine, and how many strong elves were there in the elf clan thousands of years ago? Why is this happening? Because of the powerful Renigian dragons around them in ancient times, they naturally "worked harder" to ensure that their strength could protect the elves from extinction.
And the reason why the elves were so weak a few years ago was because they had almost no natural enemies, as long as they didn't get out of the South Whisper Jungle, there were no enemies at all, so these elves who obeyed Weiss's teachings and were playful by nature naturally wouldn't work the way to cultivation.
Why are the elven rulers and elders so much stronger than the others? If you talk about age alone, both Miriam and Liana are younger than other elves who are not elders, but they are only a thousand years old and already have more than ten levels of strength, while most of the elves who have lived for ten thousand years are between seven and eight levels, and even some extreme elf strength can reach level four......
It is because the rulers of the elf clan have a sense of crisis, they do not live a carefree and decadent life all day long like other elves, and they will deliberately cultivate after feeling the pressure around the elf clan, and they have a lot more time to cultivate than other elves, so their strength is stronger than other elves.
It's a pity that they don't have more advanced magical knowledge or fighting skills, and even if they have a sense of crisis, they won't forget Ves's teachings, and having such a psychological flaw is fatal after level 10, which is also an important reason why elves like Frena can't break through after so much effort.
"Has there always been a connection between Vis and your elves?" Chu Heng asked the most critical question, because in fact, the elf clan has always been facing the danger of extinction, but under such pressure, the strength of the elf clan has not improved, which makes Chu Heng have to suspect that Weiss has been controlling all this remotely, in order not to let the strength of the elf clan expand too much.
"It is the duty of the High Priest Miriam to communicate with the great Moon God, but the Great Moon God of the Blood Moon more than ten years ago has completely lost contact with us, and before that, the High Priest can indeed communicate with Ves......"
"More than a decade ago? It just happened to be the time when Weis's death was recorded in KEY......" Chu Heng thought silently. (To be continued......)
