Chapter 506 Benchmark

When I turned around to look, I was startled.

I saw a few huge treehouses, stretching out their branches and rolling up Li Zi and Lily at the same time.

The two women were less than half a meter off the ground, kicking their little arms and legs and yelling.

The sudden change made me stunned for a moment. The next second, my hand went directly to the handle of the Odachi, and I wanted to draw the knife and cut the branch.

Lilea stretched out her little hand, hugged my arm hard, and said urgently: "What are you doing?"

"Quickly let go," I said, "Didn't you see they were caught up?"

"Calm down, don't be impulsive!" She still hugged my arm tightly to prevent me from drawing the knife: "The treehouse will not attack adventurers casually. They are greeting Lily and the others and will not harm them. of!"

"Say hello?" I glanced at Lily and Lizzy. Sure enough, they were not restrained or attacked. Instead, they were placed firmly on the trunk, and from time to time, small branches touched their creaking nests. , making them laugh.

Seeing that Lily and Lizzy finally stopped panicking and began to giggle, I breathed a sigh of relief and turned to ask Lilea: "What on earth is going on?"

"Treehouse will take the initiative to get close to people with the blood of elves and goblins."

"So, the tree house is not just a building, but a living animal?"

"This statement is wrong," Lillea said: "The tree house is not an animal, it is a plant, one of the many plants living in Moonlight City."

She explained: "Due to some special reasons, the plants growing in Moonlight City have a simple sense of autonomy and are able to complete certain simple actions."

I looked up at the two study trees that were having fun with Lily and Lizzy. They twisted their branches together and turned them into a large swing chair for the two girls to lie on and swing comfortably. , and even very considerately placed a buffer seat belt on the chests of the two girls.

So, Lilea changed her words: "Of course, there are also those with higher evolutionary levels who can perform many difficult behaviors that are beyond our expectations."

I raised my hand, waved it twice, and said, "You two can play here first, and come to us later when you are tired."

"Okay, brother Xiaoyi~" "Okay, okay~"

The two little girls were having so much fun that they even forgot to ask questions like, 'How can we find us later?'

Lilea said: "Don't worry, I have already arranged for people to bring them over when they get tired of playing."

I nodded.

After walking for nearly an hour, I felt a little tired. Looking at the three women around me, all of them looked tired, especially the others. I couldn't help but ask: "Don't you have transportation to pick up and drop off guests?"

"Transportation? What is that?" Lilea asked confused.

Oh, I forgot, there is no such word in Zephyr Continent.

"It's just a means of transportation such as a carriage."

"Oh, carriage." Lilea shook her head apologetically: "No, we don't let horses pull the carriage."

I wondered: "Why?"

"Because all species in Moonlight City are equal," she said, "we will not force them to do things they don't like."

"Huh? How do you know what they like and what they don't like?"

"It's very simple," Lilea said: "We elves are born with the ability to communicate with any animals and plants. This is a natural talent that every tribe member has."

"Hey, you're so cool!" I praised with my thumbs out.

After taking a short rest, we walked forward for another twenty minutes, and finally, an elegant and majestic tall building came into view.

Lilea said: "It's almost there."

Looking at the building, I guess I still have to walk a thousand meters, so I couldn't help but ask: "Do you, the royal family of the elves, never leave the capital very often in your life?"

"Why do you ask that?" Lilea didn't know why.

"You see, even if you don't have a means of transportation, it will take at least an hour or two to walk. This is just the time to get out of the city gate. When you return to the city, you will have to spend another hour or two of work, both inside and outside. Together, it took almost more than three hours. This does not include trivial matters such as dressing up. Just this trip back and forth took almost half a day. There was no leisure time and time for an outing. ?”

After hearing this, Lilea chuckled.

I looked at her incomprehensively.

She explained: "You are overthinking it. The royal family has transportation tools when they travel."

Ah?

I was confused: "Didn't you say you won't force animals to be your means of transportation? What about human rights? Are you feeding the dogs?"

Lylea rolled her eyes at me and said, "What a rude thing to say! I said that the elves will not force animals to be their means of transportation, but if they are not forced, they can naturally become their means of transportation."

"There are also those who like to be ridden." All kinds of obscene pictures that are not suitable for children appeared in my mind.

Lilea asked Cajiali in a low voice: "Is Xiaoyi thinking about something bad?"

Cagalli didn't even think about it: "Of course."

"How could I choose such a man to be my lifelong partner?" Lillea muttered.

I coughed and said to myself: "Uh-huh, I heard it all. Pay attention to your words."

Finally arriving in front of the palace, I sat down on the ground and sighed, "It's not easy."

Cagalli gave me a look of disdain: "I'm so tired after such a short journey. I really don't know how you spent your time in the dungeon."

"That's different." I spread my hands and said, "The dungeon is full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will burp, and your blood will naturally be ignited."

"You always find a lot of lies," Cagalli said coquettishly.

After Lylea showed the certificate to the adventurer guarding the door, we were let in.

When you step into the palace, you always feel an aura of nobility and elegance. There are not many patterns and carvings on the four walls, nor are they complicated, but they always exude a lingering artistic atmosphere.

"Ouch," I exclaimed, "Everywhere here exudes a sense of literature and art. Even a picky man who knows nothing about art can become a famous artist if he is left here and nurtured for two or three years!"

"How can it be that simple?" Lilea covered her mouth and laughed.

After passing through the corridor and entering the main hall, from a distance, I saw a woman in luxurious clothes, sitting high on a giant seat made of vines.

Presumably, that is their Queen.

Lilea and a group of elf adventurers knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "See Her Majesty the Queen."

Cagalli turned around, winked at us, then followed Lilea's example, knelt down on one knee and said, "See Her Majesty the Queen."

However, people like me, who live under the red flag of socialism and grew up in the atmosphere of working people, still cannot accept the etiquette of kneeling when we meet, so I have become a very conspicuous person like a benchmark.
