Chapter 653 Elves and Elemental Creatures
Hillcart used the microscope to exchange some materials with Ulis, and he didn't ask for too much. The principle of the microscope was very simple, and the magic technology was not too difficult. As long as the elves took it apart and studied it, they would be able to figure it out sooner or later.
If the price is too high, Julis might be resentful in the future. Considering their current situation, it is better to be on good terms with him. Even if he cannot help directly, it should be possible to help indirectly.
And if you have a good first deal, you can have a second one later. If you offend someone once, it will be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, which is definitely not the best strategy.
Although he didn't ask for too much, the materials he needed were relatively rare. Julis didn't have any ready-made materials, so he had to go back to the abyss to collect them. He would give them to him next time.
In fact, Hillcart was also worried about the materials, because he was inspired by genetic research and made new breakthroughs in life magic.
The preliminary research and development of the new magic has been completed, but this magic is not a regular spell, but a triggered one. You need to tattoo the magic pattern on your body first. It will be automatically triggered when the conditions are met.
Therefore, some special materials are needed to make magic pattern potions. And the life-related materials of this level in their world are basically used by him to make scrolls for divine healing.
If Yulis hadn't existed, he really didn't know how to get these materials. He wasn't like Dongfang Xiu, who could just leave whenever he wanted.
……
When Sally heard Hillcart say that elves are elves and showed her the elves' genes, she knew what the flash of inspiration was.
After returning, while fiddling with the microscope, he asked Ulis casually, "If I no longer look like an elf, will you still like me as much as you do now?"
Yulis said: "What I like is your soul, not your appearance. However, if you really become something I cannot accept, I will send you to the reincarnation pond myself."
Sally chuckled and said, "What a truly ruthless man!"
"Have you ever thought that you can't kill me because you can't beat me, and you can't let me enter the reincarnation pond?"
"Haha, woman, do you think I'm really stupid? It's really hard for me to kill you alone, but I can ask others for help."
"Don't think about these things, just be my woman. I said I would protect the inheritance of your clan, and I will never break my promise."
Sally said, “Is that so?”
"Julis, let me ask you some questions. Are the women of your clan beautiful? If I were to reincarnate as a fallen angel, would I still have my current appearance? If I were to recover my pre-reincarnation memories, would I still have the emotions I have now?"
Julis was stunned, looked at Sally with some confusion and asked: "What do you mean by that? What do you want to do?"
"Answer my question, Julis," Sariel said.
"The bodies of fallen angel women are very perfect. Well, much more attractive than those of you elves. Their appearance may change a little, but you can still tell what they looked like in their previous lives."
"As for emotions? Actually, not many angels have recovered their memories. I've only heard that they can be affected by memories of past lives, but it doesn't completely affect the fallen angels after reincarnation."
"Why are you suddenly asking these questions today? Are you going to do something dangerous?"
Sally set up the microscope according to Hillcart's instructions and enlarged the image of her blood sample.
"In our world, the elves are called the darlings of the elements. This is because we are born with a very strong sense and adaptability to the elements."
"However, our bodies are also very susceptible to mutations because they are too adaptable to the elements."
"Once our bodies fully accept a certain element, we will...become, elemental creatures."
Julis was stunned when he heard this, and then he exclaimed, "What? Elemental creatures? How is that possible? Elemental creatures are creatures that only exist in ancient legends, and they have been extinct for who knows how many years. And it is impossible for elemental creatures to be born in the world today?"
This time, Sally was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why? Why are there no elemental creatures born?"
Yulis said: "Elemental creatures can only be born in a single elemental world. They are actually just elemental aggregates, and they don't reproduce by sex."
"That single elemental world only existed a long, long time ago."
"I don't know why, but the laws of the world are constantly changing, gradually eliminating the single-element world."
"And the elemental creatures in those worlds had no choice but to degenerate in order to continue the inheritance of their race."
"Legend has it that elemental creatures have no fixed form and can change at will according to their needs."
"In order to survive, they chose the appearance of a certain race, and then slowly shed the elements on their bodies. Eventually, they survived in the appearance of that race."
"But these are just legends. This story existed even earlier than when our race left the paradise world. God knows what race they eventually became, and whether they survived."
After hearing this, Sally pondered for a while before saying, "I didn't expect there was such a legend."
"Julis, do you think it's possible that our tribe of elves is the degeneration of elemental creatures?"
Julis shook his head and said, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. You are no different from other elves I have seen. How could you be the degeneration of elemental creatures?"
Sally smiled and said, "But, our clan will really become elemental creatures."
"The ancestral teachings of our clan are that we must never specialize in elements, because once we choose to specialize in elements, we will become elemental creatures. And we have detailed records of such cases."
When Julis heard this, he immediately said in surprise: "Sally, you, you don't want...?"
"Yes, you just mentioned the word degeneration, so let me tell you now, I want to evolve back." Sally said firmly.
"You want to become an elemental creature? No, elemental creatures are not that powerful, otherwise they would not have disappeared in the long river of history."
Sally said: "We know more about elemental creatures than you do. It does have many disadvantages, but it also has many advantages."
"And my idea wasn't to completely transform into a certain elemental creature. What's more important is that I found a way to transform back."
Sally pointed to her own gene map and said again: "This is my gene. According to Hillcart, the appearance of the body is completely determined by genes."
"If I allow my body to completely accept a certain element, then under the influence of the element, my genes will change and I will become an elemental creature."
"Then I just need to change the changed genes back. In theory, I will be turned back into an elf."
"No, it's too dangerous. What if I can't change back?"
Sally said: "Julis, in fact, it is because of you that I dare to think about turning into an elemental creature."
"Actually, I don't want to live as an elemental creature. If I can't change back, you can kill me and take me to the Angel Reincarnation Pond."
