Chapter 797: Chapter 677: The Abilities of the Elf Clan_2
Elves chose to pass from here, which does not seem to be a frantic and random choice.
Because the arrival of the Silver Shield Legion was not for pursuit, but due to plans to deal with the Holy Court, they had been waiting ahead of time here.
No one was chasing, so there was naturally no panic.
The traces of that elf were probably detected by the Silver Shield Legion by chance.
So the search was also very secretive.
And after dismissing the speculation that the elf came to Castle Kasai due to being lost, its visit to Castle Kasai was probably for convenience in entering the Amiciya Mountains.
Although there are many City-States in The North adjacent to the Amiciya Mountains, this time…
One can only say that their luck was not very good.
That’s why a bit of their trail was exposed.
Zuo Fang stroked his chin and sighed, “The intention of this elf is definitely not good-hearted, and we have all brushed past each other. It’s a pity to let it go just like this.”
Xu Shuo responded indifferently, “Then why don’t you chase after it yourself? If you catch it, you win; if not, it’s just bad luck.”
Zuo Fang clicked his tongue, “Better not.”
If it were a player, everyone would have the strength of the second-level peak, and since the creature could escape from the Duke of Silver, who’s to say it couldn’t also escape from him.
In short, it was not necessary.
Unless Xu Shuo joined him in the capture.
But Xu Shuo was currently busy dealing with another matter regarding the Mixed-blood Elves and obviously couldn’t split himself for another task.
When Zuo Fang expressed this regret, it was just bemoaning the ill timing.
After all, between the Ice and Snow Elves and the Holy See of Light, there is an irreconcilable conflict of faith, unless one side gives up on expanding their congregation, otherwise, it’s virtually impossible for them to be on the same side.
——Knowing that the enemy has run past me, yet I can neither chase nor fight, is truly agonizing.
That’s exactly how Zuo Fang felt right now.
“What’s that dragon up to now?” Xu Shuo asked suddenly.
“Sleeping, it says it needs to conserve energy.”
Zuo Fang sneered, “Chased with me all night, I thought it could hold up much longer. Just this? Huh, how uninteresting!”
He mocked the youth back with the same words that had been used to tease him during the day.
But, he did not say it to the face.
Because doing so would mean neither of them would have peace tonight; that lad seemed the type to compete fiercely and get progressively sick from it.
Better to avoid trouble than to invite it.
So he bore this slight.
However, speaking of Luo Kun, Zuo Fang suddenly remembered something.
He asked eagerly, “Right, do you know how the Magical Beasts of the Elf Clan come to be? Did the Papal Highness ever write it down?”

Xu Shuo glanced at him, “I don’t know, why suddenly ask this question?”
Zuo Fang frowned, “After discovering the elf’s movements, that dragon discussed this topic with me. I think he must know something, but when I pressed him for more, he said nothing.”
Hearing this, Xu Shuo’s gaze flickered slightly.
It seemed a thought had sprung to his mind, but he couldn’t quite grasp it at the moment.
But this fleeting idea was definitely a very important detail, so Xu Shuo started to ponder it right then and there!
If the thought doesn’t come now, will it continue when the inspiration strikes again?
No, such a thing does not exist.
Especially in the heart-pounding, do-or-die world of the Script World.
Xu Shuo had to figure it out even if it seemed elusive!
Seeing that he appeared to be deep in thought, Zuo Fang also moved more quietly, not wanting to disturb his contemplation.
However…
As time passed on.
Seeing the youth still showing no signs of enlightenment.
Zuo Fang became a bit restless.
“What are you pondering so hard, that it takes this long? Shall we think it through together?” he couldn’t help but blurt out.
“According to past records, Magical Beasts come from the Far North Mountain Range,” Xu Shuo said, looking at him.
“I know, because in those records, the Elf Clan lives deep in the Far North Mountain Range, and the Magical Beasts are their pets, obeying their commands,” Zuo Fang continued on his line of thought.
“So according to that statement,”
Xu Shuo said somberly, “Magical Beasts exist because of the elves, because there are elves, so there are Magical Beasts.”
Zuo Fang scratched his head, “Because of me, my dog has something to eat; isn’t that pretty normal?”
Xu Shuo suddenly stopped, “…”
The two men looked at each other in silence for a while.
Facing the youth’s deadly gaze and feeling completely off, Zuo Fang realized he had followed the wrong train of thought, and immediately returned to his serious demeanor, narrowing his eyes in thought.
“I got it, what you mean is, the Magical Beasts were created by the Elves!”
“…”
“… Fuck!”
“…”
Xu Shuo didn’t speak again.
However, Zuo Fang suddenly seemed to react to something, slapped his thigh urgently, and blurted out an exclamation without controlling the volume of his voice.
The next moment he quickly came back to his senses, casting a wary glance at the wall beside him.
They were silent for another long moment, waiting until there was no movement from next door before Zuo Fang gradually relaxed.
He looked incredulously at Xu Shuo, “If it’s not a Magical Beast raised from a cub, could the Elf Clan really have the ability to turn ordinary wild beasts into Snow Magical Beasts? So that Elf took a detour to the Amiciya Mountains?”
This ability was too terrifying.
Moreover, if the power to transform Magical Beasts had no limit, then all the myriad beasts in the Amiciya Mountains would become enemies!
Spanning the inland, if enemies were to surge in from all directions, the Holy Court’s army would be unable to stand against them no matter what.
Zuo Fang felt his scalp tingle at the thought of that scene.
Xu Shuo, however, shook his head, “Don’t worry, if this method really had no limitations, the Elf Clan would have been the master of this continent a thousand years ago, and it would not have been humanity’s or the Church of Light’s turn.”
“… That’s true.”
Zuo Fang understood after a bit more thought.
A thousand years ago, the continent was in chaos, and there were more mountain ranges overrun by wild beasts than the Amiciya Mountains. If Magical Beasts could indeed be created in endless billions…
The Empire of Saint Vlaro would have fallen long ago.
Xu Shuo pondered and said, “The military values quality over quantity. If the Elf Clan really had this ability, they’d probably prioritize converting the more powerful Magical Beasts. I think the Elves made this move to restrain the Dragon Clan, and he probably guessed it too.”
“That dragon… hmm?”
Zuo Fang paused, suddenly turning his head to look out the window behind him, and unexpectedly locked eyes with a pair of dark red eyes.
The youth appeared hanging upside down from the window, his face bearing a mocking smile, and it was unclear how long he’d been eavesdropping.
Seeing the two men looking over, Luo Kun grinned, “The Papal is truly prescient, not even having seen the Magical Beasts yet but guessing the situation without error.”
Xu Shuo spoke indifferently, “That Elf’s purpose is to deal with you. If you’re really bored, you might as well take a trip to the Amiciya Mountains.”
However, the youth’s face showed regret, “But what am I supposed to do? I’ve followed you all this way, and I don’t want to separate from the Papal.”
Zuo Fang rubbed his goosebumps, “Can you not talk like you’re crazy? Oh, you actually are.”
“Your giant dragon body needs the Power of Flesh and Blood to maintain itself, so go to the Amiciya Mountains and eat more. If you don’t want to eat, that’s fine too. Decide where you want to die.”
Xu Shuo’s expression didn’t change as he finished speaking and then directly pulled down the window curtain.
Following the Knight Order around, eating and drinking for free while not wanting to work?
No way could that be so cheap!
After all, they had already arrived in the North.
Once the bow is drawn, there’s no turning back; that Mixed-blood Elf girl couldn’t have gotten very far by now.
If Luo Kun disregarded the plan and made trouble here, it wouldn’t matter if they fought a battle right here; it would be just like the Black Dragon had chased them down.
Perfect, take Sola to the Far North Mountain Range and then join forces with the Duke of Silver.
Hey, four players together on a dragon-slaying venture!
Done deal!
Xu Shuo was secretly planning in his mind.
Luo Kun lifted the curtain, pouting, “Fine, fine, but let’s get one thing straight: if something happens in the Amiciya Mountains, I can’t be held responsible.”
“After all… it was you who asked me to stir trouble there.”
The youth’s eyes gleamed with a strange, malevolent energy.
There was also a sense of excitement that had been repressed until now, anxiety too difficult to hold back any longer.
Destructive death, the delicious taste of blood—he had always liked these things deep down inside.
And this giant dragon body, grown on the Power of Flesh and Blood, made those emotions even more desperate, clamoring constantly to feed, to fill that bottomless void.
