An assistant teacher at Starlight Academy? Chen Rui nodded. As for the name 'Rambis', he did not think too much about it. The world was huge, and there were many people with the same name. Furthermore, in Chen Rui's heart, it did not matter whether she was or not. 'Arthur' had already been destroyed, and 'Chen Rui' was still an outsider.
"So it's Teacher Rambis. My name is Richard. Nice to meet you. Since Teacher Rambis has spoken, let's forget about this matter. "
"Thank you. Your magnanimity is admirable." Rambis looked at Michelle, who was at the side. She bowed slightly and led the idiot Mellodan back.
Michelle did not seem to have a good impression of Rambis. Her gaze was a little unfriendly, but she still turned her head and bowed back.
Elves were vegetarians. There was no meat in their diet, only green food. The taste was mainly light, and since they were used to eating meat and fish, this food had a different flavor. Chen Rui ate slowly and chatted with Michelle from time to time. On the other hand, Blanche stood behind Michelle in silence.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Chen Rui stood up. "Let's go to the palace."
As they passed by Rambis's table, the beautiful assistant teacher gave Chen Rui a friendly smile. Chen Rui nodded casually, his gaze lingering on the beautiful red-haired girl beside Rambis. He walked out of the dining hall.
"This guy's eyes really are blind. Even when faced with Senior's Goddess' Smile that instantly killed all the boys, his spiritual undulations did not change at all," the red-haired girl said with a smile.
Rambis shook her head lightly. "Ariel, didn't I tell you not to pry into other people's emotions? It's not polite. "
"Senior Sister, I'm just feeling indignant for you. Besides, my sensing ability has long been discovered by him. Being discovered 'spying' shouldn't be considered spying, right?" Ariel's eyes narrowed. "I can feel that that person … is very strong."
"How strong?" A cold and arrogant voice rang out.
"I don't know either." Ariel glanced at the cold young man behind her and asked with interest, "You can try if you have the chance."
The young man snorted coldly and did not say anything else.
Chen Rui followed Michelle towards the palace. Blanche didn't follow, and they parted ways at the entrance of the Green House.
According to the "Professional Informant" Michelle, Blanche's mother was an elven noble, while her father was a half-elf. The elves had always looked down on half-elves, so their marriage was strongly discouraged. In order to gain the approval of the elves, Blanche's father went to the dangerous Nightmare Plain in search of the Water of Life to save the elves' sacred Tree of Nature. Unfortunately, he died in the Nightmare Plain. Blanche's mother, who had just given birth to her daughter, was devastated when she heard the bad news. She fell seriously ill and died of depression. Blanche had been discriminated against by the elves since she was young. If not for her mother's special status and outstanding contributions to the elves, she would have been chased out of the Jadeite Forest long ago.
The reason why Blanche wore an eye patch was not because she was blind, but because her eye had inherited some kind of power from her father and had mutated. It now possessed forbidden power, so she usually wore an eye patch to hide it.
As they chatted, the two arrived at the palace. The Elven Palace was located on a cliff. The exquisite buildings exuded a picturesque charm. Even the corridors and staircases were exquisitely carved works of art.
Chen Rui followed Michelle without any obstructions as they entered the palace hall.
On the throne was a female elf with a crown on her head. She was beautiful, and her skin was smooth and translucent. She wore a long, silver-white dress that didn't have too many embellishments, but exuded a graceful and elegant aura. What left the deepest impression was her pair of crystal-like green eyes, as if they could see through everything.
The highest ruler of the elves, Michelle's mother, Queen Liv.
Race: Elf
Overall Strength Assessment: S +
Vitality: S +, Strength: S +, Spirit: S +, Speed: S +.
Attributes: Wind, Archery Proficiency, Magic Proficiency.
Danger Level: High.
Beside Queen Liv were the two elders he'd met last night, Patrick and Cheropan.
"Welcome, Lord Richard, envoy of the Hill Dwarves," the Queen's pleasant voice rang out, "Please sit."
"It's an honour to meet the beautiful and noble Queen." Chen Rui bowed and sat on the seat next to Michelle while Michelle stood beside the Empress.
The Queen's gaze landed on the Duoduo on Chen Rui's shoulder. "I'm surprised that the Hill Dwarf King would send a human as an envoy, and one that stands out from the masses." Her expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to normal.
"A special envoy with a bird," Michelle interrupted in a low voice. Michelle interjected in a low voice and was glared at by Queen Liv. She swallowed her words of "I really want to touch it."
Chen Rui chuckled, not lingering on the matter of the bird, "I'm very surprised as well. I was actually fortunate enough to receive an audience with His Majesty. His Highness Orfg, the Dwarf King, gave me an emblem … I'm sorry, I didn't know it was the Sacred Leaf Emblem at the time. He then asked me to find a stolen blueprint and told me to give it to Grandmaster Fenoa of the Elves. I found the blueprint by chance, so I immediately set off for the Jadewood Forest. It's all thanks to Princess Michelle and Miss Blanche that I was able to come here. "
Seeing that Chen Rui deliberately mentioned her, Michelle looked proud. Queen Liv nodded and said, "I see. It seems that Sir Richard doesn't understand the meaning of the Sacred Leaf Badge. When this badge arrives at the Silver Moon Immortal Capital, it itself represents a certain attitude of the Hill Dwarves. As a trusted friend of the Hill Dwarf King, please convey the most sincere goodwill and respect of the elves to the hill dwarves. Let bygones be bygones; we should focus on the future of our two races. The elves and the hill dwarves will help each other, advancing and retreating together, just like an ancient alliance. "
"I believe the hill dwarves will treasure their friendship with the elves. However, I'm afraid Your Majesty will need to send another envoy to Thick Earth Castle. I promised His Highness Orpheus that I would only use this crest to enter the forest and pass the blueprint to Grandmaster Fenoia." Chen Rui took out the Sacred Leaf Crest, "I've already successfully reached the forest. Now, all I need to do is pass the blueprint to Grandmaster Fenoia. As for everything else, it has nothing to do with me."
Michelle did not feel anything, but Queen Liv and the two elders looked at each other in shock. This mission was not difficult, and it could promote the friendship between the two races. 'Richard' would receive favours and benefits that ordinary humans could not receive, be it from the dwarves or the elves. However, the other party had sealed off all of this with a single sentence. At most, he would only be left with a 'personal' relationship with Grandmaster Fenoia.
Queen Liv muttered to herself for a moment, and a voice rang out in Chen Rui's mind, "Sir, is there a special reason why you are so eager to cut off your relationship with the hill dwarves? Or do you not want to implicate the hill dwarves? "
Chen Rui did not expect the elven queen's insight to be so strong. He replied with the power of [Analytical Eyes], "Perhaps. I only have one request. Your Majesty, please allow me to personally pass the blueprint to Grandmaster Fenoia."
"You possess a rather magical soul power." The surprise in Queen Liv's beautiful eyes became even more intense, "From what I can hear, these words are not simple emotional transmissions, but completely flawless elven language. Even the elves' soul language pales in comparison. Not only that, your hidden strength is also unfathomable to me. I feel fortunate for my dwarven allies. They have a powerful friend, a true friend. I kind of understand why His Highness Orpheus passed the Sacred Leaf Crest to you. "
"Your Majesty, you're too kind. I'm just fulfilling a promise."
"Do you know the origin of the little friend on your shoulder?"
"I think I do."
"Looks like you've given me a lot of surprises today …"
After a short and quick telepathic communication, the elven queen looked deeply at Chen Rui and gestured for Patricia to take back the Sacred Leaf Crest, "Since that's the case, I won't force you. Thank you, Sir Richard, for your contribution to the friendship between the dwarves and the elves. Michelle, bring Sir Richard to the Purple Heart Treehouse and pass the blueprint to Grandmaster Fenoia. "
Chen Rui immediately stood up and bade farewell, following Michelle out. The elven queen was not only a powerhouse, but also a wise one. She did not shoulder all the troubles that might arise, nor did she chase him out of the Immortal Capital of Silvermoon. Instead, she deliberately avoided the question. This had already made her attitude clear.
The Purple Heart Treehouse was located in the purple forest on the outskirts of the Immortal Capital of Silvermoon. This forest had been designated as a special area by the elven queen, and without Grandmaster Fenoia's permission, no one was allowed to enter. It had been many years since Grandmaster Fenoia had met outsiders, and even the elves rarely saw him. Most of the affairs were handled by his direct disciple, the famous alchemist Taranna.
Taranna's residence was by the small lake at the entrance of the purple forest, and he was currently welcoming a group of guests.
These guests were students from the Starlight Academy. Taranna's trial was one of the tests for obtaining an advanced bachelor's degree.
There were a total of twelve students participating in the trial, including the elven princess and Michelle's older sister, Feli. Apart from Rambis, there were also two teachers from the Starlight Academy.
Although Taranna was already five hundred years old, he still looked like a handsome young man in his twenties. The appearance of an elf would not change after reaching adulthood, even if it was a few hundred years later. Only in the last ten years of their life would they start to age rapidly.
"From now until nightfall, the closer you are to the Purple Heart Treehouse, the higher your score will be. If you can enter the treehouse, then you can even receive additional guidance from Grandmaster Fenoia. You must know that Grandmaster Fenoia is not only an alchemist, but also a peak Saint-tier expert."
Taranna's words made everyone's eyes light up. The elf master continued, "However, I have to remind you that the purple forest is not a simple place. There are all kinds of dangers, and some of them are even fatal. You can use all methods to enter. Don't lose the teleportation stone that I gave you. If you encounter any danger that you can't defend against, you can use it to teleport out. Everyone only has one chance to teleport. After teleporting out, you can't enter again. You must grasp it well, understand? "
The twelve students replied in unison, "Understood!"
At this moment, Michelle and Chen Rui's figures appeared by the lake. Michelle waved at Taranna from afar. "Master Taranna, can you bring us to see Teacher?"
As soon as she said this, everyone's eyes focused on them.
