Chapter 502

Shien was quite satisfied with the treatment of having a natural hot spring all to himself.

It was just a pity that he didn't have Tierre by his side to enjoy the pleasure of bathing with.

Thinking of the girl who was proactive and resolute, Sean felt a little nostalgic and missed her.

"Well, it's only half a month anyway."

At the thought of this, Shien set aside his longing and turned to look at Caroline beside him.

"What? Is there a problem? "

Sensing Shien's gaze, Caroline immediately inquired.

To this, Shien only replied with one sentence.

"It's not me who has a problem, it's you."

Shien was all smiles.

"???" Caroline was immediately at a loss. She asked with a frown, "What problem could I have?"

"You're fine?" Shien nodded in understanding, then changed the topic. "Since you're fine, why are you still here? Do you want to see me undress?"

"You …!" Caroline blushed. She was so angry that she could no longer maintain her stern and old-fashioned demeanor. She glared fiercely at Shien, but she didn't say anything.

But she didn't say anything. She just turned around and left.

Seeing this, Shien looked as if he'd won something, but he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly spoke up.

"Wait, no one will come here, will they?"

Shien had to figure this out first.

"You're worried?" Caroline mocked. "Don't worry, no one will come to peek."

Did this man really think that the elves would care about these things?

Who were they?

Elves who valued purity!

Elves would never want to peek at a man bathing!

But …

"Am I worried that someone will peek?" Sean replied sarcastically, "I'm worried that you unreasonable women will break into this place later and take advantage of me. You'll even pretend to scream and attract everyone here. Then, you'll smear my name and say that I'm acting like a hooligan. Who am I going to reason with then?"

These words really infuriated Caroline.

But Shien wasn't joking.

Similar plots had appeared countless times in all kinds of novels. Whether it was accidentally seeing some beautiful scenery or letting others see some beautiful scenery, the one who suffered in the end was always the male protagonist.

Shien didn't want to fall into such a vulgar plot and be slandered instead.

Otherwise, with the special status of foreign males among the elves, he wouldn't be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

With his violent temper, if he really became like that, he would not be like those cowardly male protagonists who did not dare to fight back even after being targeted. He would act like he did not want to bully or hit a woman, but in reality, not only was he not the slightest bit righteous, he was also extremely stupid.

If he were to encounter such a thing, he would have to apologise. He would have to capture them and beat them up first.

Only by beating them into submission would they have the right to speak. Otherwise, how could they expect a group of angry women to reason with them?

Otherwise, would he be able to reason with a bunch of angry women?

"Anyway, I'll say this. If someone barges in later and causes trouble, I won't be polite," Shien said with a smile. "We haven't even finished our fight yet."

Caroline glared at Shien. That look in her eyes made it seem like she was about to pounce on him and bite him.

After a while, Caroline gritted her teeth and said, "Only Her Majesty the Queen comes here.

"Only Her Majesty will come here. Lady Reiya and Lady Niya will come with Her Majesty sometimes, but they won't come during the peace ceremony."

After all, it was Sophie who'd brought Shien here and let him use the hot spring.

Under such circumstances, Sophie naturally wouldn't come here, and neither would the two legendary corps commanders.

"I'll wait for you outside. You can rest assured now, right?"

After saying this, Caroline turned around and left as if she didn't want to talk to Shien anymore.

Until …

"You can wait outside, but don't steal what you're guarding, okay?"

These light words caused Caroline to stumble and almost fall.

Finally, Caroline stormed out of the place in a huff.

Caroline didn't even notice that Shien only had a triumphant smile on his face.

"That's what you get for putting on airs in front of me. See if I don't piss you off."

Obviously, Sean was deliberately making it sound like he deserved a beating.

…

"Ah ~ ~ So comfortable ~ ~"

A figure soaked in the natural hot spring, accompanied by an incomparably satisfied yet refreshing sound.

"This hot spring has some tricks up its sleeve. It's not simple."

Sean took a comfortable bath, but he looked at the hot spring with a meaningful look.

If someone who had learned the skill [Mana Perception] were here, they would discover that this natural hot spring was not only emitting heat and steam, but it was also emitting rich mana.

Shien discovered this as soon as he arrived and immediately understood.

How is this a hot spring? It's clearly a source of mana!

That's right, this was not a hot spring at all, but a natural source of mana.

The hot water in this source of mana was all condensed from natural mana, and it was not ordinary hot spring water.

With the perception of Destiny, Shien saw through many things.

This source of mana should have absorbed the special mana in the deepest part of the Tagore Forest during the process of expansion, which caused some changes and turned it into a form similar to a hot spring.

Sources of mana were divided into sizes and levels. Some were only small sources of mana, some were medium-sized sources of mana, and some were large sources of mana. According to the size and level, the quality of the spring water in the source of mana was also different.

This hot spring source of mana should have been a small source of mana, and after countless years, it expanded into a medium-sized source of mana. However, because of the special mana here, it did not grow into a medium-sized source of mana in the end. Instead, it mutated and transformed into such a hot spring source of mana.

"That special magic power should be the reason why the elves were born in nature here, right?"

Shien used Destiny to feel the surroundings.

Generally speaking, magic power was transformed from life force, and so was natural magic power. It was naturally transformed from the life force that flowed out of the largest existence in the world.

Therefore, mana was closely related to vitality. Once there was a problem with vitality, there would be a problem with mana, and once there was a problem with mana, there would also be a problem with vitality.

This caused all the mana to actually contain a strong aura of life, but it was not as pure as vitality.

However, Shien discovered that the natural mana in the home of elves was not only as pure as vitality, but it even had a special pulse.

If one were to say that ordinary Mana flowed like air currents and rivers, then the Mana here would be like a heart, beating rhythmically in the process of flowing.

That feeling was no longer like the air currents and rivers of ordinary mana, but more like blood vessels flowing in it. It was very special.

It was because of this special mana that the elves were born from nature and became a kind of natural life.

It was the same for this hot-spring source of mana. Under the condition of absorbing the mana here all year round, it had undergone a strange change.

"If one often soaks in such a hot spring, it will definitely be able to make the mana in the body active, accelerate the growth of mana, and even feed back to vitality, allowing people to live longer, and even heal some serious injuries."

Shien sighed emotionally.

"This is much more precious than ordinary sources of mana."

Shien was certain that if the source of mana here appeared in the outside world, it would definitely be fought over by countless forces and even countries.

In order to occupy such a unique source of magic power, many countries wouldn't mind going to war and snatch the land with such a source of magic power.

Its value was limitless. It was truly a priceless treasure.

"No wonder even the elven royalty would come here."

Shien turned his head and looked to the side.

There were actually a few unicorns with their horses' heads lowered, drinking from the spring water in the hot spring.

The levels of those unicorns were not low at all. The lowest one was at level 84, while another was at level 88 and 89. They were only a step away from the Legendary-grade.

Being able to drink from the spring water here should be a great help to these unicorns, right?

"The world only knows that the elves have a group of mages that is known as the strongest, but they don't know that the monsters and fantasy creatures under their management drink the spring water here all year round, and their levels are also not low."

Shien pursed his lips. He could totally imagine that in the Elven Homeland, apart from the elven group, there was also a high-level army of monsters that was definitely not inferior to the former.

The elves might have a small population, but not only were they long-lived, but they also coexisted peacefully with so many high-level monsters, and even managed them.

Shien had reason to believe that when necessary, the elves would definitely be able to command this high-level monster army.

At that time, the powerful monsters would charge at the front, and the elves would provide support from the back with powerful magic that surpassed the human race. The combat power displayed would not be inferior to any other race in the human race.

Note, it was race, not country.

If it was just the power of a country, even if the Mithra Kingdom and the Ragnar Empire were to go against the elves, Shien felt that they would not be able to gain an advantage.

Of course …

"No matter how much combat power they have, they are no different from ants in the eyes of the Transcendent Level that has broken through the limits of life."

Now, Shien was very clear about the gap between the existence that had transcended and the existence that had not.

"Without the existence of transcendence, even a powerful race like the elves would still have to fear Ai Yi and Lilith."

Shien saw this clearly.

At this time …

"Ai Yi …?"

A very soft voice suddenly came into Shien's ears.
