Rules for raising elves [Interstellar Apocalypse]

Compared to Castleman, Little Ball, as its name suggests, is really a very small planet, with a total population of less than 50,000. Although it is small in size, the vegetation is relatively lush, and tall trees can be seen everywhere in the bushes.

Most of the races on the planet are relatively weak vegetarian races and rodents. Affected by the strong electromagnetic barrier, they are far away from war, but the technology is relatively backward. Many residents still live a relatively traditional and primitive life, and people do not like it very much. Leaving home, foreign exchanges only relied on a few caravans traveling through the empire.

The Evening Star team landed in an open space in a small forest. As soon as the hatch opened, Shia flew out like a bird.

Whether it was the garbage star she was born on or the later Castleman star, they were almost barren stars with little vegetation coverage. At a glance, the Gobi was the desert, and only a few listless cacti could be seen on the exposed sand.

Although the little star looks like a small nut in the universe, the coverage of green plants is relatively amazing. Especially for Sia, those vibrant green plants exude a comfortable feeling all the time. breath.

The elf seems to be the darling of nature. When she is in the forest, the fatigue of her body and the uneasiness of her mind seem to be melted into the whisper of the wind. She can hear the sound of gurgling water in the depths and the sound of small animals stepping on fallen leaves. There are sounds and flowers and plants stretching comfortably under the shade of the trees.

Amidst Leo's exclamations, Sia climbed up to a big tree nearby in a few seconds. Her agility made her look as if she was not a ten-year-old lolita, but a fluttering leaf.

"Miss Shia! This is too dangerous!" Leo nervously looked up at the elf sitting on the treetop swinging his legs happily, feeling his heart about to jump into his throat.

God! This tree is fifteen meters high!

Caleb, on the other hand, was relatively calm. He just watched silently as the elf sat firmly on the tree, making sure that she would not fall. Then he ordered the two wolf cubs to keep an eye on her while he started to do other things. .

Sia closed her eyes, feeling the wind gently caressing her hair, then opened an iron box, took out a biscuit from inside and took a bite, showing an intoxicated expression.

Of course, this is not the cookie that Leo made on the spaceship before, but the tin box that Leo used to protect with his body in the grocery store at the outpost. It is a box of berry-flavored cookies.

Now think about how outrageous it is that Leo was severely beaten by those hyena orcs because of a box of cookies.

After all, Leo was just a novice in the kitchen. The originally decent cookies had no idea what happened after they went into the oven. In Shia's heartbroken eyes, they all turned into a pile of unknown black objects that could only be mosaicd. In the end, it all went into Leo's stomach.

It's impossible to waste food. Fortunately, Rio's prototype is a killer whale. Their terrible food intake means that their sense of taste is really not that sensitive, and they are surprisingly receptive to the taste of many strange foods.

Shia really cherished this box of cookies, not only because it was the best thing she had ever eaten, but also because Leo had tried his best to get it for her. After tasting one on the spaceship before, she Not even willing to give it to anyone else, not even Caleb.

Silently counting the remaining biscuits in the tin box and planning the remaining portion, Shia closed the lid tightly.

It was at this time that an accident happened.

Shia keenly caught the sound of leaves scraping above her head, and then a big black and white tail quickly swept away the box in her hand, then quickly jumped up another tree and ran towards the depths of the forest.

This incredible rogue behavior completely aroused the elf's anger.

Shia pressed her legs hard on the branch, and with a light posture that defied Newtonian mechanics, her whole body flew towards the thief in an instant like an arrow off the string.

This frightened Leo, but the Stoker brothers, who had been silently paying attention to the elf, also chased after him.

The Kenai Mountain wolf is particularly good at running fast and long distances. It can move easily through mountains and forests, so it quickly caught up with the little elves that kept jumping and moving in the trees.

The figure of the elf shuttled between the trees like a beautiful butterfly, so light that it could not feel any resistance. When it jumped from one branch to another, the branches did not even sway at all, as if they were weightless.

The waterfall-like platinum blonde hair is extremely light in color, and seems to blend in with the sunlight falling in the forest.

Larry and Duck thought they had amazing jumping abilities, so they couldn't help but be surprised by the unscientific scene in front of them.

Shia's speed was very fast, and her sensitive senses allowed her to easily lock onto the target in front of her. No matter how tricky this little thief was, he couldn't get rid of her.

When she turned the next corner, Shia kicked off the tree trunk and threw the scurrying shadow in front of her to the ground.

They fell into a thick pile of fallen leaves. Sia shook the leaves on her head, but the strength of her hands did not relax, and she firmly held down the man struggling crazily below.

"You let me go!"

"Give me my stuff back!"

"Let go first!"

"Pay it back to me first!"

Until Larry and Duck arrived, Larry picked up the angry elf, and Sia was still holding the box of biscuits she snatched back tightly in her hands.

After looking down into the pile of fallen leaves, they saw clearly what was underneath -

He is a little boy with a big black and white furry tail.

I saw him struggling to get up from the ground, and then spitting out leaves and soil. He was wearing dark linen clothes and had two ears with slender white hair on his head.

The next second, he felt his collar tighten, and then he was slowly lifted off the ground. He stared hurriedly with his golden eyes and protested loudly: "What are you doing! Put me down!"

But when he saw the tall man narrowing his yellow-green yin and yang eyes, and the dangerous aura of a superior predator came towards his face, his voice became smaller and smaller, and even started to whimper.

"Ugh, you are bullying others, three of you are bullying me! I want to tell dad."

"Hmph, weren't you very proud just now? Who gave you the courage to snatch something from a lady at such a young age?"

As the bully in a group of children who have always relied on their fists to talk, Dak has always looked down upon this kind of behavior that only bullies the weak.

The little boy's mouth tightened, and he argued unconvincingly: "It's just a box of broken biscuits! I still don't like it! What kind of lady?" After speaking, as if he had just reacted, he mechanically twisted his neck and raised his eyes quickly. In the direction of Shia.

Sia was wearing the improved male cub overalls that Leo found for her, and the cloak made of sacks was still on the outside, but these things could not hide the elf's beauty.

After seeing Sia's appearance clearly, her face suddenly started to turn red, and her voice became stuttering: "No, right? You, you, you are a young lady?!"

Sia glared at him angrily, then twisted her face, leaving him with a golden look on the back of her head.

Suddenly there was a sound of branches breaking, and Larry turned around suddenly, only to see a group of people wearing the same dark linen clothing walking out from behind the bushes with weapons raised, the muzzles of the guns pointed at them, and a rough warning: "Let go." Shoot him! Stranger!"

Then the little boy seemed to suddenly gain the confidence to twist hard, break away from Duck and hide behind the leading man like a gust of wind, shouting proudly "Dad!"

His father is the strongest orc in the tribe! There is an A level!

"Now it's interesting." The corners of Dak's mouth curved dangerously, and his fists clenched.

Even though they were holding weapons in their hands, Dak took a visual inspection and found that most of them were relatively short in stature and only had genetic levels of B to C. The man at the head was obviously much taller than them, even in terms of aura. There is an A grade.

As if he felt that the people in front of him were not good people, the man whom the boy called "Dad" hid his son behind his back, but his expression didn't reveal anything.

Just when the atmosphere was getting more and more solemn, Caleb appeared with Leo.

"Ivan! It's me."

After seeing the person clearly, the familiar silver hair and silver eyes, the leading man lowered his guard, ordered the tribesmen to put down their weapons, and then slowly nodded to Caleb: "It's Mr. Caleb, long time no see."

This surprised Larry a little. Caleb has been transferred to District 9 for quite some time, and those who will call Caleb "Sir" will only be Caleb's old acquaintances when he was in the Legion.

I saw Caleb shaking hands with Ivan, and then introduced to them: "This is Ivan Fingrelir. We fought together in the Battle of Orville."

The man named Ivan has slightly curly brown hair. He is tall but not very burly, but rather slim and long. He has some stubble on his chin and his eyes are gentle and powerful.

The Battle of Orville was a border battle between the Empire and the Zerg. During the battle, a wave of dark beasts broke out, resulting in particularly heavy casualties.

Ivan said politely: "Lord Caleb once saved my life. I was a little surprised when I met you here by chance six years ago." Then he pushed out the confused little boy behind him and said, "This is My son, Macaro."

After Larry explained the cause and effect, Ivan realized that his naughty son had actually robbed a precious female lady. He instantly changed his tone and reprimanded: "Makaro, I have said many times, you can't Don't be so naughty again! It's wrong to snatch other people's things. This is still a distinguished lady! Where are the politeness that I usually teach you? Your mother will not let you go if she finds out."

Macaro was obviously shocked when he mentioned "Mom", his eyes began to wander around, and his fingers twirled his clothes uneasily.

"Apologise, Macaro." Ivan looked at him seriously.

"I'm sorry." The little boy with a big black and white tail said reluctantly under the pressure of his father.

Sia's anger was obviously not over yet, but she still didn't want to embarrass everyone and waved her hands grandly to indicate that she would not pursue the matter any further.

As it got late, at Ivan's suggestion, all members of Evening Star Team were invited to their tribe.

Because of its vast territory and sparse population, the residents of Little Ball Star do not live in a town-like manner. Apart from organizing some markets every week, most of them stay in their respective tribes.

After passing through a forest path and pushing aside the vine curtain, we arrived at Boser's tribe, Maya, one of the largest tribes on the small planet.

"They live in the trees!" Sia's bright eyes looked at the colorful houses built on the tall trees, which was very strange.

The houses are of different colors and shapes, and they look like beautiful little lanterns hanging on the trees.

Macaro jumped off his father's body, then quickly climbed up a vine, and disappeared with a "whoosh".

Ivan looked apologetic, as if he had nothing to do with this naughty son: "Makaro is really difficult to control. No one can control him except his mother. I will arrange for you to take a break first."

Except for Ivan, the orcs of the Maya tribe are relatively small in size. Although the treehouses are dazzling, the area of ​​each treehouse is not very large. Each treehouse is only barely enough for two members of the team to live in.

It was absolutely impossible for Sia to live alone in such a strange place, so Ivan found them a slightly larger house and separated the inside and outside to make two bedrooms. Sia lived in it, and Caleb lived in it. Sleeping in the outer room.

Because Xia is a female and a distinguished guest of the tribe, her room is decorated in a particularly unique way.

The small bed made of wood was layered with layers of soft leaves, and then covered with a soft green quilt. There was also a bouquet of freshly picked flowers on the bedside table. The floor lamp on the side is in the shape of a mushroom. When you pull it gently, it emits a soft light.

There were also fruits on the table. Although they were all unknown to Xia, each one was washed clean and filled to the brim. The large fruit basket could hardly fit in it. It was the first time for Sia to live in such a lovely house, and she had to look at everything in novelty several times.

But the fruit elf in the basket remained obedient and did not move. He just asked Ivan with his eyes.

In her opinion, this is different from being on their spaceship. This is someone else's territory. Ivan is obviously the owner here and must obtain the owner's permission.

Ivan was a little surprised by Sia's politeness. In his opinion, most of the female ladies in the empire would take all courtesy as a matter of course. He was the first person to ask his opinion specifically for a basket of worthless fruit. Seen for the first time.

Instantly realizing the difference in this female lady, Ivan smiled knowingly and his eyes became much kinder.

He took out a purple fruit from the basket and handed it to the greedy elf: "Eat it, it doesn't matter, these are specially prepared for you. This is salsa fruit, a specialty of the little star. The flesh is delicate and tastes great." sweet."

Shia took the salsa fruit and carefully looked at the fruit, which was almost as big as her face. She felt a little confused about how to start.

The fruity aroma wafted from the thin purple peel. Xia tore open the peel and took a small bite on the white and tender flesh. The sweet juice instantly activated her taste buds, and the white flesh inside was very soft.

Shia let out a contented sigh.

As we all know, the elf is a person who has no other hobbies except food.

Turning his head, he suddenly found that there were many heads outside the window trying to peek into the house. They were all wearing the same dark linen clothes and had white fluffy ears on their heads. They were all very happy to see that she liked salsa fruit. , with idiotic smiles on their faces.

"Look, she likes salsa! Our salsa at Maia is the best for little stars!"

"Miss, feel free to eat, if you like, we have plenty more!"

"Do you like a sour taste? I also grow some lemons at home, I will pick some for you right now!"

As if she didn't expect that there were so many people watching her eating, Sia was startled, hunched her shoulders and leaned against Caleb.

"Ahem." After seeing the tribe's gaffe, Ivan tried his best to pick up the dignity and said: "You have scared the lady, do what you should do, don't pile up here and affect the lady's meal." Then he shouted and chased the people all the way. Everyone rushed to other places.

Caleb took a handkerchief and wiped Sia's hands clean carefully: "Go to sleep for a while, I'll be outside."

He thoughtfully covered the elf with a quilt and gently closed the door.

Sia didn't have the habit of staying in bed, and when she woke up, her genius was bright.

When you open the window, you can still see the stars hanging like diamonds on the night sky. The fragrance of plants is mixed with the aroma of food. It means that the people of the tribe have gotten up early and are getting busy.

Suddenly, a familiar black and white furry big tail appeared in his sight. Macaro appeared in front of the window hanging upside down and silently pushed in a rattan basket.

Inside were several purple fruits called salsa fruits that Shia had just eaten. Each one was evenly sized, and the purple peel was still stained with dew.

Seeing that Shia didn't take the initiative to take it, Macaro hurriedly explained: "I don't think you like food! I just picked a little! It's not an apology or anything! Dad. He said that breakfast is ready, let you come and eat! Let me go!" After that, he ran away from the house with the power of his tail.

Sia looked at the basket of salsa fruits left alone on the windowsill. Each one was very full, and they were obviously carefully selected.

The elf was stunned for a while, then silently moved it indoors and placed it on the table.

Macaro, who was still secretly observing from a distance, saw that the basket of salsa fruits was missing. He secretly jumped for joy and thought happily: "She accepted what I sent! Does that mean she forgives me?" Then He turned a few somersaults on the spot and jumped down from the tree house.

Because Caleb once saved Ivan's life, and Xia is one of the most expensive female ladies, all members of the Evening Star team received a warm welcome from the Maya tribe, and the breakfast was also sumptuous.

Breakfast is placed on a long wooden table, covered with green leaves. It is filled with a variety of fruits and breads, and even some fresh, wriggling insects.

The Maya tribe is almost all orcs with ring-tailed lemur genes. In addition to fruits and general cereals, their staple food is insects. They also like insects very much. They bring up almost everything they can get their hands on.

When Shia selectively ignored the plate of insects, the ring-tailed lemur orcs hiding in the dark were still secretly feeling pity.

The old bear grinned and rubbed his waist, and then made a tooth-piercing squeaking sound. "This room is really small and the bed can't accommodate me at all. I might as well sleep on the floor."

"I haven't even said anything yet. I really envy the captain and Miss Shia together," Leo sighed. The larger old bear can still live in a room alone, and he, Carl, and the two wolf cubs all share a room!

Caleb evenly brushed the bread with a layer of mellow jam, and then handed it to Shia. From his face, which was used to facial paralysis, it was not clear whether he had slept well or not.

"After all, this is someone else's territory, and we are only here temporarily. We will hurry up and complete the modifications to the spacecraft in the past two days, so that we can leave early."

"Come on, come on, I've dismantled all those ugly birdman decorations. I just need to change some materials to change the color of the paint." Karl took a bite of the unknown fruit and closed his eyes with soreness.

Caleb nodded: "Then you can go to the market and have a look. The caravan of young football stars just came back from outside."

After breakfast it was time for the sun to rise.

When the sun shone on the earth, Shia found that the ring-tailed lemur orcs who were still in the tribe had put down their work, climbed into the trees, and spread their limbs so that the sun could fall evenly. On their chests, bellies, arms and thighs, they look like devout pilgrims.

After seeing this, Xia followed suit. She jumped onto the tree and opened her arms, feeling the warmth of the sun baking her body.

"Isn't it very warm?" Macaro on the side no longer looked like the itchy naughty boy he was before. He spread out his body with enjoyment, then raised one eye and secretly looked at Sia.

The elf closed her eyes, the sunlight fell on her curled eyelashes, and the remaining warmth dyed her face a seductive pink.

"very warm."

Elves can always get strength from nature, and the sun is also one of them. When they penetrate into her skin, they slowly merge into a warm current, nourishing her body. She feels that her spirit, which was a little tired due to the burst of power before, quickly also Got restored.

Ring-tailed lemur orcs like to use this method to dispel the coldness brought to the body by cold nights, so they are also called "sun worshipers". When I saw that Shia also liked the sun so much, I was very happy.

"I'm going to help in the orchard later, do you want to go?" Macaro plucked up the courage to say.
