"Is this the Grace Town?"
"Wow, it's a little beautiful. It reminds me of the Shire in The Lord of the Rings."
Looking at the beautiful town in front of them, Boxed Lunch, who had followed Lilia and the others here, were surprised.
This was an exquisite, small, elegant, and quiet town located in the forest. The town was next to a continuous mountain range, and a stream that looked like a silver ribbon flowed through the town.
Most of the buildings here were made of wood and stone. They were short and low, and they were scattered in a picturesque manner. The front and back of the houses were surrounded by low wooden fences. Within the fences were green trees, bushes, vines, and flowers, showing a vigorous vitality.
People came and went in the town. The residents were all humans with Elf blood like Lilia and the others, and they all looked very young. Even the oldest looked no more than 30 years old.
They were dressed in simple, coarse clothes and were busy with their work. When they saw Lilia and the others, they all put down their work and greeted them warmly.
"Yo! Lilia, you're back! "
"Good afternoon, Lilia!"
"Lilia, did you find the Devil's Snare Flower?"
Lilia and the others replied happily, "We found it!
"Found it, we found it!"
"We actually found it?"
The townsfolk's eyes lit up.
"That's great! Doesn't that mean that the Elder's illness can be cured?!"
After the joy, they quickly noticed Boxed Lunch and the others.
At this moment, the five players had changed their attire.
Although they were still wearing their equipment, they had put on a wide hood over their clothes.
They had prepared it long ago, and it was originally used to conceal their identities in the human world.
The townsfolk sized them up curiously and looked at Lilia in confusion.
"Lilia, they are …"
"They are our distinguished guests! It was their help that allowed us to obtain the Devil's Snare Flower! "
Lilia replied with a smile.
This was the explanation that the players requested.
After communicating with Lilia and the others, the players had realized that this Demiplane was not simple.
There was no country in this Demiplane. The one that ruled this Demiplane was a church called the Church of Creation.
Although the church also worshipped the elves as gods, the players were wary after learning that the church's legends described the Creator God as a great being who controlled life and nature.
Just like Eve, they didn't think it was referring to the World Tree.
Therefore, after a discussion, they decided to temporarily conceal their identities and wait for more information from the elders of Grace Town before deciding on their next course of action.
"I still have to bring our esteemed guest to the Elder, so I won't be chatting with everyone."
Ririya waved her hand at the curious townsfolk. Then, she led a few players into the depths of the town.
The players followed Lilia and walked in the small town.
They looked around curiously as they walked.
At the same time, they communicated in the chat channel.
"Hey, have you noticed that the people in this town are all so young?"
"Not only are they young, but they are also really weak. I thought that Lilia and the others were weak, but now it seems that they are quite strong. Many of the NPCs here aren't even professionals."
"Yes, I thought that the NPCs we met were younger, but now it seems that the entire town's residents are very young. No wonder there are no powerful people at such a young age."
"It's so strange. Was there a mistake in the design? Or was it done on purpose? "
Puzzled, they finally couldn't help but ask Lilia this question.
"Lilia, I think the town's residents are all so young. Where are the elders?"
"Elders?"
Lilia was stunned for a moment before she asked curiously,
She asked curiously, "Weren't the ones who greeted us just now the elders?"
Greeted?
The players were stunned. Then, they recalled that the residents they saw were at most in their thirties.
Their expressions were a little strange.
"Lilia, may I ask, how old are you this year?"
Calabash asked curiously.
Lilia replied, "That's right.
"I'm fifteen years old today."
Fifteen years old?
In that case, their appearance and age should be the same?
The players were a little surprised.
They thought that with a trace of elven blood, these humans, like elves, couldn't judge their age based on their appearance.
"Is there no one over thirty years old in that town?"
Optimist asked.
Lilia looked at him strangely and shook her head.
"Sir, we're just ordinary humans. We don't have a long lifespan like the Protoss. The lifespan of ordinary people like us is at most thirty years old."
Thirty … Thirty years old …
The players opened their mouths and looked surprised.
Were the people here so short-lived?!
While they were still in shock, a cold and familiar voice rang out in their hearts.
"This is normal."
"The life potential of the creatures in this plane will be depleted quickly, so the lifespan of any creature here will be one-third of the normal level."
The one who explained was Eve, who was secretly peeping.
And after hearing Eve's words, the players also understood.
"I see."
"Then the people living in this demiplane are too miserable."
"It's a little pitiful … especially when they still think that this is normal."
"It's just a game. Don't be so immersed."
"Sigh, even if it's a game, it's very pitiful …"
"If that's the case, I also understand why there are no ancient trees in the forest. I'm afraid it's the same for the plants here. Their life potential is quickly depleted, and their lifespan is greatly reduced. "
"That should be the case. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a thick layer of dead trees and deciduous humus on the forest floor."
The players shook their heads as they secretly communicated.
And soon, under Lilia's lead, they arrived at the elder's courtyard.
This was a small courtyard full of fresh flowers and green grass. It was elegant and unique.
As soon as they arrived, Lilia shouted excitedly.
"Elder! We're back! We also found the devil's snare flower! "
A moment later, the vines on the wooden fence of the small courtyard pulled slightly and opened a path.
"Vines?"
Calabash raised his eyebrows.
The courtyard door opened, and Lilia led the players into the courtyard.
She thought for a moment, then bowed apologetically to them and said, "I'm sorry.
"Lord of the Protoss, I'll bring the devil's snare flower to the elder and report to him the purpose of your visit. Please wait in the living room for a while."
Hearing her words, the players nodded slightly to express their understanding.
Seeing that the players nodded, Lilia ran into the inner room with the devil's snare flower.
And the players entered the living room that Lilia pointed to before leaving.
The living room was not big, but the furniture was very complete. All of the items were handmade wood and had a unique fragrance of wood.
In addition, the players also saw a crude statue of a god in the middle of the living room.
The statue of a god was not tall and was in the shape of a human. It wore a large hood that covered half of its face.
The players glanced at it curiously.
At this moment, a weak and tired voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Ahem, this is the statue of the God of Creation that I carved according to the description in the ancient books …"
God of Creation?
The players were slightly stunned and then turned around.
They saw Lilia supporting a human male who looked to be in his thirties and appeared at the door.
This man wore a large robe. Although he looked to be in his thirties, his hair was completely white.
The players looked at him curiously, and he looked back at the players.
Looking at Lilia's respectful attitude, his identity was obvious.
The man smiled warmly at them and then said, "I'm sorry.
"Should I call you Lords of the Protoss or —"
"Elves?"
