Elf Farmer

Liat was now in a very, very bad mood.

The name of the potion she dropped on the cargo list is "Devil's Gaze". This potion was one of the trophies she got after killing a black magician when completing a combat mission assigned by the academy, because this potion The medicine can make the words written with the devil's potion appear, so she deliberately kept them——

The devil's potion is an invisible potion often used by black magicians to write. It will only appear when "the devil's gaze" is used.

Whether it is "Devil's Gaze" or "Devil's Potion", they are both magic potions that only black magicians can refine, because among the magic materials needed to refine these two kinds of magic potions, there are two things that white magicians absolutely cannot What was obtained were the horns cut off by the devil himself and the newly opened eyes of the human baby.

The unicorn caravan's cargo manifest was apparently written using devil's potion.Liat now suspects that this unicorn caravan is not a real orc caravan, but is disguised as a human race - the black magician among the orcs may take action against the goblins, but will never take action against the Yalong. !

Because the Beast God and the Dragon God fought side by side in every recorded divine battle - in Liat's opinion, it was actually more like the Beast God following the Dragon God in battle - so the Beast God's family must not be malicious. Anyone who kills the dragon god's dependents will be punished by the gods.

There are real gods in this world, so as long as the orc black magicians do not want to die due to divine punishment, they will never take action against Yalong - Yalong also belongs to the dragon clan and is naturally a dependent of the Dragon God.

And they are all weak human races - otherwise the elves and tiny dragons wouldn't be the only ones appearing on the cargo list.

Whether it is the Snow Feathered Dragon, the Cloud Feathered Dragon, or the Crimson Flame Dragon, their size is not much different from that of the Fairy Clan, and they are all considered quite small among the tiny sub-dragons of the Dragon Clan.

Liat took a deep breath and let it out slowly. She closed the inventory and stood up to go out. Suddenly she remembered that Mia had told her last night that Granny Hannah had sent five sets of clothes for the rainy season -

Opening the wardrobe, Liat saw five sets of completely different styles of clothing. She noticed that whether it was trousers or skirts, Hannah's mother-in-law had specially made them in two sizes. One set of skirts and one set of trousers were made according to her body shape. Sewn to the Snow Elf's measurements, the other three outfits are based on her measurements after she transforms into a giant squirrel orc.

Probably because she wore a cloak every day when she went out, Granny Hannah specially sewed a cloak for each outfit. The style was exactly the same as Liat's college cloak, even the college emblem on the edge of the cloak's hood. Mother-in-law Hannah embroidered exactly the same pattern on them.

Looking at the set of carefully sewn clothes in front of her, Liat rolled her eyes and felt that she was in a much better mood - she wore the college cloak every day because it had runes to control temperature. After all, the dry season in the town was very difficult for snow. It was too hot for the elves. Granny Hannah probably thought she liked the cloak so much that she wore it every day.

The temperature will drop significantly after the arrival of the rainy season, so the clothes given by Granny Hannah are very thick. Liat touched the college badge on the edge of the hood that showed no magic fluctuations, and thought that she would put it on her clothes when she was free. Just draw some temperature-controlling magic circles. She really likes the style of the college cloak.

Transforming into the form of a giant squirrel orc, Liat moved his big furry tail, took out a few bottles of magic potion from the storage ring and put them in the inner pocket of the cloak for easy access, and then opened the bedroom door. , go downstairs and get ready to go out.

As soon as he arrived on the first floor, Liat smelled the sweet smell of fruit soup.

Aunt Norma's greeting came from the kitchen: "Good morning, Mr. Liat, today's breakfast is sweet fruit soup with pan-fried meatloaf, and dessert is the cream pudding from the recipe given by Alvi, Mia Go feed the Pegasus, I’m going to clean the food processor now.”

Aunt Norma poked her head out of the kitchen while wiping her hands on her apron: "What do you want for lunch? I can prepare it in a minute."

After seeing Liat, who was dressed in snow-white fur, she couldn't help but praise: "This is the first time in so many years that I have seen such a beautiful color of your fur. It is as pure as the moonlight of the birth month of God!"

Looking at Aunt Norma, whose face was not only rosy, but also the hair on the animal ears on her head had become much glossier, Liat showed a smile: "I have to go out for a while. Help me heat up breakfast in the food processor." Okay, just watch and make lunch, Aunt Norma, I trust your craftsmanship!"

Aunt Norma also laughed: "Okay, then leave it to me!"

After saying hello to Mia who was feeding Pegasus, Liat walked out of her house. She stood in front of the teleportation circle at the intersection and looked inside. The projection of the town in the spiritual sea clearly showed the foreign caravan. Location - They are currently setting up a stall in the central square of the town, and it seems that they are preparing to sell things.

Liat was about to teleport when he saw the mayor and Uncle Hood rushing towards his home - is something wrong?

So Liat waited at the door, and soon saw the mayor and Uncle Hood coming out of the teleportation circle. Their expressions were solemn, which made Liat's heart rise involuntarily.

"What happened?" Liat stepped forward and asked.

The mayor and Uncle Hood looked at each other, and the mayor said: "It can't be said that something happened. Liat, you were studying magic in the Human Empire before, right?"

Lia nodded: "Yes, I studied magic at a magic academy before. What's wrong? Does it have something to do with the human race?"

Uncle Hood sighed: "Yes, it has something to do with the human race. Buck was attacked by a team of adventurers while hunting in the Dawn Forest. Do you still remember it?"

Liat recalled it, and she still had some impression. Sophia mentioned it when she was chatting with her, saying that the adventurer team not only wanted to capture Buck alive, but also wanted to capture Buck's hound Podgers alive. Buck was so angry that he tied back the adventurer team.

"Did the interrogation produce any results?" Liat asked. She remembered that Sophia said she was being interrogated.

The mayor's expression was more serious than solemn: "No, they didn't say anything, or in other words, they couldn't say anything."

"When we passed by today, we found that they were dead." Uncle Hood frowned: "The soldiers responsible for guarding them did not find anything unusual at all."

The mayor added: "There are no external injuries on their bodies. We asked Sister Grace to take a look. Sister Grace said that these humans died of starvation, all of them. But we send them meals every day. The soldiers guarding them also said they ate every meal.”

"When Sister Grace checked the bodies of the adventurers, she found a badge on them." Uncle Hood looked at Liat's hood: "The pattern of that badge is the same as the pattern of the badge on the edge of your hood. Exactly the same. So we thought you might be able to tell something."

Liat's mood became bad again - maybe the academy badge belonged to a member of that adventurer team, maybe the academy badge was just kidnapped by them, but no matter which case, it was not a good thing.

Thinking of the unicorn caravan, Liat took a deep breath again: "Take me there first to have a look."

When they arrived at the central square of the town, the caravan's stalls were also well-established. Liat took a look from a distance - the stall with a unicorn horse tied to it should be that of the unicorn caravan.

The unicorn is not a unicorn, but it is also funny.Liat pouted, looked away, and followed the mayor and Uncle Hood into the town hall.

The prison was built underground under the town hall. As Liat walked down the steps, he waved his magic wand and released a small area of ​​detection magic - nothing unusual.

When he reached the prison where the adventurer team was being held, Liat only took one look at the corpses in the prison and couldn't bear to look at them anymore: "They did all starve to death."

"...Is it magic?" the mayor asked hesitantly.

Uncle Hood shook his head: "If it's magic, I can feel it."

Liat lowered his eyes: "You can say it's magic, you can say it's not magic."

Lifting up the magic wand and waving it gently, Liat chanted in a low voice: "Grow quickly."

Although the human adventurers lying on the prison floor are dead, the bulging muscles on their arms and calves under the armor still look very strong, and the skin on their cheeks is also very full on their sleeping faces. The word "starved to death" has nothing to do with it. However, as the sound of the spell chanted by Liat fell, one after another double-petaled flowers as big as the mouth of a bowl suddenly bloomed on the surface of their skin - but In the blink of an eye, the prison floor where the corpse lay seemed to turn into a small garden full of beautiful flowers.

The bright blood-red flowers were in full bloom. However, this beauty was extremely short-lived. In the blink of an eye, large pieces of heart-shaped petals fell off from the calyx, turning into little bits of light and dissipating in the air. .

When all the flowers withered and disappeared, all that was left on the prison floor were pale skeletons one after another.

"This plant is called Death's Smile. It is a magical plant cultivated by black magicians. It is estimated that Death's Smile has been planted in the hearts of these adventurers. This magical plant will grow in the flesh after germination. , all the nutrients in the human body will be absorbed by it during the growth process, but because its root system is all in the flesh and blood, there is no abnormality on the outside, and because it is just a plant, there is no magic. Fluctuation." Liat raised his eyes and looked at Uncle Hood: "Catch the unicorn caravan in the square outside, they have a deal with the black magician."
