221: Chapter 220 Star Spirit Grass

Suddenly thinking of this, his heart felt an unbearable itch of curiosity.

With a few leaps, he returned to the car and left quickly, heading straight for the eastern part of the city where the Elf Race resided.

He landed near the treasury from before.

As soon as he got out of the car, a group of elves surrounded him with guns.

Don't think they didn't use high technology; they used it, and they were quite proficient at it.

"Human, you are not welcome here. This is a restricted treasury area. Please leave," an elf leader said solemnly.

Normally, they would have killed this human long ago, but the Elders had instructed them to be polite when seeing humans now.

They couldn't treat them like before, ordering them around at will, because the Human Race was now in charge of Chaos City.

Lu Qingfeng found it somewhat amusing to see an elf, who looked like a little boy, speaking so seriously.

However, he wouldn't actually think they were children; it was just their appearance.

"Call your Elder here. Tell them the leader of the humans has come to visit. Hurry..."

He didn't have the contact information for the elven Elders. Lian Caiyi did, but he didn't want to tell her about this right now.

Hearing his words, the elves all took several steps back.

Their faces showed some terror; the human leader had long been imagined by them as an irredeemable demon.

The leader immediately had the crowd disperse and took out a communication device to contact the Elder.

Then he bowed his head and said, "Greetings, My Lord. I did not recognize you, please punish me."

Lu Qingfeng waved his hand. "Ignorance is not a crime. Go about your business, and have your Elder come quickly."

The leader breathed a sigh of relief, gave an acknowledgement, and left quickly.

In the distance, a group of female elves looked at him curiously.

Their language was unbearable to hear. Lu Qingfeng once again wondered if his hearing was too sensitive.

"That Lord doesn't have a bloody maw like I imagined, and he's not ugly at all; he's actually quite handsome."

"Exactly, exactly... It's said this Lord is as powerful as our Holy Warriors. I really want to ♦♦♦♦ with him..." a female elf said with a blushing face.

"I want to too... I haven't been to the human side yet. I heard from the sisters that the human one is quite large..."

"Yes, yes, yes, unlike our Elf Race's, which are much smaller and not satisfying..."

"The strong must be very powerful in that aspect too!"

"Definitely..."

Lu Qingfeng: ...

He had only heard that the Elf Race was lewd; today he was finally seeing it for himself.

Perhaps it was because they couldn't reproduce; it was said they were all born from the Elven Holy Pool, though he didn't know the specifics.

Fortunately, it wasn't long before... three streaks of light streaked across the sky.

Three figures landed.

"Greetings, My Lord..."

"No need for formalities. Let's find a place to talk; I have some things to ask you."

The three looked at each other, and Elder Yun immediately said, "My Lord, please follow me."

She led Lu Qingfeng into a wooden house. The house was built very spaciously and was filled with flowers and plants.

Even the stools were part of the original ecology.

Lu Qingfeng found a random spot to sit down and saw that the three were still standing.

He said gently, "Sit down, all of you. Why are you standing? I've purely come to consult you today, so don't be too constrained. We're on the same side now; there's no need for this."

"Yes, My Lord..." The three felt somewhat apprehensive.

But they still sat down obediently and then had someone serve tea.

Lu Qingfeng held the tea and took a sip.

Mhm... the taste was excellent.

He put down the teacup and looked at the three somewhat nervous individuals.

He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I said I'm here to consult you today."

"If My Lord has any instructions, please just say..."

Sensible!

"I just want to ask you how your race increases Mental Energy. I'm a bit curious, so I came specifically to ask."

Hearing this, the three breathed a sigh of relief.

The woman sitting in the middle, Elder Yun, spoke up: "My Lord may not know, but our Elf Race relies on star spirit grass to increase our Mental Energy."

"star spirit grass?" He was hearing of it for the first time.

"Yes, it is star spirit grass."

"What is star spirit grass?"

Not very sensible? Do I need to ask again?

Elder Yun's expression was a bit conflicted and hesitant.

The three looked at each other, and seeing that Lu Qingfeng was becoming a bit displeased.

Elder Yun sighed. "My Lord, this is considered a secret of our elves, but since My Lord wants to know, we will naturally tell you."

"My Lord should know that our Elf Race cannot reproduce. Although we have male and female distinctions, we do not have the ability to bear children."

"Our birth depends entirely on the Holy Pool. Every year, a large number of various elves are born. And star spirit grass is a kind of natural spiritual object that grows by the side of the Holy Pool. Currently, it only has an effect on the growth of our Elf Race's Mental Energy. Each person is allocated one stalk every year; more than that is useless... As for how much Mental Energy it can increase, that depends entirely on talent."

Lu Qingfeng pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there any more of this star spirit grass?"

"There is, but it's not in the treasury; it's with Elder Xing. He is specifically responsible for managing the star spirit grass." She then turned to Elder Xing and said, "Go and bring ten stalks of star spirit grass."

"Yes..."

Elder Xing rose and excused himself.

Sensible... that's more like it.

"Can you tell me more about this star spirit grass?" Lu Qingfeng asked again.

"Alright... My Lord."

Elder Yun decided to go all out. Although it was a secret, it wasn't that big a secret; she might as well say it.

Otherwise, if this Lord flew into a rage, they wouldn't be able to withstand it and would still have to speak. Elf lives would be lost and buildings destroyed; why bother?

So she explained in detail:

"Because our Holy Pool is on a floating island above the Sea of Clouds, and it's surrounded by star spirit grass. They absorb starlight at night to grow rapidly, so we call them star spirit grass. star spirit grass matures once a year, and we have enough for the Elf Race's use. The method of use is to eat it directly; it will slowly strengthen our Mental Energy."

Lu Qingfeng nodded. He was somewhat interested in the island suspended in the sky, but with current technology, it could be easily achieved.

This star spirit grass actually absorbed starlight to grow, which was somewhat unscientific.

Anyone who had gone to school knew that stars emit their own light, while planets reflect the light of stars.

The light emitted by stars is the light and heat given off by the energy of nuclear fusion.

It was just a chemical reaction; could the Elf Race have misunderstood?

What the star spirit grass absorbed wasn't starlight, but cosmic rays?

Like a Star Beast, absorbing cosmic rays to grow? If so, then this star spirit grass should be something special.

Before long, Elder Xing returned with a long box, over two meters long, much taller than himself.

He placed the box on the table next to Lu Qingfeng and opened it, revealing ten stalks of lush green grass.

Aside from emitting a faint, flickering starlight, wasn't this just rapeseed?

It looked quite similar; truth be told, he had seen it in the countryside, and it looked very much like rapeseed.

"This is the star spirit grass?"

"Yes, My Lord!" Xing said respectfully, "A gift for My Lord!"

Sensible...

"Then many thanks. By the way, let's exchange contact information to make it easier to stay in touch in the future."

"Yes, My Lord!"

After adding the contact information of the three, Lu Qingfeng took the box and got into the car.

He wanted to go back and study whether this star spirit grass was actually useful...
