Chapter 348: Chapter 331 Thank you, Chosen One!
Morning.
The sunlight was like strands of golden sand, filtering through layers of leaves, casting dappled shadows on the forest floor.
The mist exhaled by the trees floated softly like a white veil in the air, refracting the golden sunlight and making it even more ethereal and dreamlike.
Occasionally, lodious bird calls could be heard from afar, accompanied by the faint sound of babbling brooks, adding a touch of liveliness to the tranquil and beautiful Elf Forest.
Transforming Ji Gang strolled through the forest.
He wore his newly exchanged, polished Black Iron Middle Rank legendary armor, carried freshly picked herbs on his back, and bounced along according to the mini-map in the system navigation.
Having grown up in a tropolis, Transforming Ji Gang loved the natural and pleasing scenery of the Elf Forest, and the unique scent of various wildflowers and pine mingling in the forest…
It was a faint, refreshing aroma, completely opposite to the ever-present exhaust fus in the city.
Every ti he did a quest in the forest, listening to the relaxed and cheerful tunes of the ga system, observing the vibrant green beauty of the forest, breathing in the fresh air far superior to reality, Transforming Ji Gang *felt his soul being completely relaxed and uplifted…*
*In those monts, he forgot all the worries of the real world, and his mind was more at peace than ever.*
“Spring is here…”
Looking at the wildflowers sprouting on the grass and the beautiful butterflies fluttering playfully among the flowers, Transforming Ji Gang unconsciously wore a faint smile.
Spring had arrived.
Half a month had passed since the last hidden quest against the invading rcenary group.
As usual, players successfully completed this hidden quest, annihilating all the invading rcenaries…
No, more accurately, midway through the battle, those rcenaries had already been tainted by a bizarre force.
Later, players were fighting against the Despair Scale Monsters the rcenaries had turned into…
Of course, the quest was not entirely smooth sailing.
The disappearance of Mairrel midway caused a slight unease among the players.
However, for so reason, the rcenaries who turned into monsters suddenly beca panic-stricken, giving the players an opportunity.
They then called for help from young El and Divine Favored Zero to defeat the monsters one by one…
And later, through so insider information from first-test players, Transforming Ji Gang learned that it was likely the Goddess had defeated the evil Dragon God they intended to sche against, causing the subsequent changes.
After that quest, like many players, Transforming Ji Gang gained a large amount of experience and contribution points, along with abundant loot…
By now, he was already at level 30, just a step away from Black Iron Upper Rank.
A glance at his nearly full experience bar made Transforming Ji Gang even more delighted.
He humd a lively tune in sync with the background music, quickening his pace.
The shoes on his feet shimred faintly, and Transforming Ji Gang activated the [Accelerate] effect that ca with the shoes.
His body beca lighter, swiftly weaving through the forest.
The trees on either side rapidly receded, the sound of wind whistled in his ears, and the scenery in his view gradually beca familiar.
Transforming Ji Gang’s eyes lit up:
“Almost there.”
He quickened his steps, bouncing as he continued to speed ahead.
The distant murmur of voices could be faintly heard, and the gaps in the trees revealed the spire of a chapel.
Transforming Ji Gang began to slow down, changing his full sprint to a walk.
After navigating around a few towering ancient trees, his view opened up brightly.
In front of him, a beautiful city constructed from large white stones ca into view.
The architectural style of the city was ancient elven, adorned with intricately carved patterns, while green grass and flowers embellished every corner of the city, making it seem imrsed in a sea of green, full of life and vitality.
This was Feilengcui, the forr Holy City of the Elf Clan, now their new ho.
Elves dressed in silk robes were busily moving to and fro within the city.
Their faces radiated with joyful smiles, and their eyes shone with hope for a beautiful future, unimaginable that just months ago they wore expressions of numbness and despair.
Every now and then, figures clad in ornate armor, wielding large blades or great swords, or draped in magnificent robes while holding flashy magic wands, would weave through the city.
They were elves too, appearing as if they were Elf Warriors and Mages of the Elf Clan.
But, upon closer inspection, one would notice that, aside from their combat-oriented and mostly stylish clothing style, their movents seed sowhat odd.
So couldn’t resist hopping and bouncing, using [Accelerate], [Sprint], and other magic to hurry along, with so even eschewing normal paths, choosing instead rugged, difficult-to-traverse routes…
So rushed through the city, so gathered around elves in long robes, chatting and laughing, and others set up stalls along the streets, selling various items enthusiastically…
Everywhere one looked, it was bustling with activity.
Transforming Ji Gang took a deep breath and walked into the city.
Along the way, elves who spotted him would pause, smile, give a slight bow, and draw a tree symbol on their chest.
Transforming Ji Gang would smile back in return.
A burst of cheerful giggles ca, and several lively and adorable young elves appeared within Transforming Ji Gang’s sight.
They were playing and frolicking, so running ahead, others chasing behind.
The children in the front wore homade rcenary paper armor, while the ones in the back were dressed as cute Elf Warriors, waving wooden toy swords.
Sweet, pleasant voices could be heard from afar:
“Stop, evil rcenary! I am the brave Chosen One! Co face in battle!”
Hearing their crisp voices, Transforming Ji Gang couldn’t help but let the corner of his mouth lift upward.
*Becoming a legend in the stories, perhaps this was what it ant?*
*His gaze softened even more, and for a mont, he forgot it was just a ga, unconsciously slowing his steps.*
Suddenly, the young elf at the very front didn’t notice a rock underfoot and stumbled, heading straight for the ground…
Transforming Ji Gang frowned slightly, instinctively activating the [Accelerate] effect, rushing forward to catch him steadily.
The running young elf was startled.
When he looked up and saw who had caught him, his big, watery eyes instantly sparkled with little stars:
“Ah! It’s the Chosen One! Thank you, Chosen One!”
His voice was filled with admiration and longing.
“Be careful while walking.”
Transforming Ji Gang said softly.
Even as he spoke, he was surprised at how gentle his voice sounded.
But…
*Looking at those adorably cute faces, those pure, untainted big eyes, anyone would unconsciously beco gentler, right?*
“Yes, Chosen One!”
The young elves giggled, paid their respects to Transforming Ji Gang, and then clumsily drew a tree symbol on their chests.
“Go on and continue playing.”
Transforming Ji Gang said warmly.
The little ones nodded and then chattered as they ran off into the distance.
Watching them leave, a hint of a smile swept across Transforming Ji Gang’s eyes.
*He felt…*
*He probably wouldn’t be able to quit the Elf Kingdom ga for the rest of his life.*
