Chapter 36 - Undercurrents

It was the next day.

The first thing Galadriel did when she woke up was to check on the golden egg.

Seeing it lying there safe and sound, Galadriel smiled and kissed the eggshell.

But in fact, every time Galadriel saw that the golden egg had not changed, she would feel a little anxious.

Because she had been looking forward to seeing the creature in the egg break out one morning.

"I want to break out of the shell too, but there's really nothing I can do with my bloodline."

Sensing Galadriel's thoughts, Chen Kun, who was lying in the egg, replied helplessly.

The golden egg, on the other hand, ran into Galadriel's arms and rubbed against her.

Today, she needed to test the results of the little elf's magic cultivation, so Galadriel brought the golden egg to the classroom early.

All the little elves had a look of anticipation on their faces. They also wanted to know the results of their studies during this period of time.

Galadriel placed the golden egg on the table and announced the next test.

Tricia was sitting below now, her gaze fixed on the golden egg beside Galadriel. Her mind replayed the humiliation of the night before.

Soon the test began. Aurora and Tricia both achieved good results.

After being liberated, the two of them also ran toward the golden egg.

But Aurora was still a step too slow. Tricia took the lead and hugged the golden egg.

This scene filled her little face with question marks.

"I thought you didn't like holding your balls much in the past, Tricia?"

"I… I want to play with her for a while today. Can you give me this opportunity?"

"Of course. Then I'll play with the others, but you have to let go of Eggy if she doesn't want to."

Although Aurora was reluctant to part with the golden egg, she agreed.

At this moment, Tricia was suffering. Now, she had become a slave to this egg.

That's right, this was all Chen Kun's order.

After the test was over, Galadriel would give them time to move around.

This was nothing. It was mainly because these little girls liked to run around with him in their arms.

There would also be some competition during the process.

These young elves had yet to familiarize themselves with magic and would often accidentally injure Chen Kun.

Although his shell was hard enough, Galadriel had already agreed to use the Elf Dew on him.

He didn't want anything to go wrong at this critical moment.

Galadriel, who had just finished the test, also saw a strange scene.

Tricia, who rarely interacted with the golden egg, was actually sitting at the side with the golden egg in her arms.

Slyph, who had finished registering, could not help but be curious when she saw this.

"I thought Tricia didn't like the golden egg. Now it seems to work."

"That's normal. Perhaps Tricia is just a little arrogant. She might have liked the golden egg a long time ago."

After Galadriel finished speaking, she turned around and asked, "How's the preparation for unsealing the Elf Dew?"

"It's almost ready. The other elders are in place, but because the seal set back then is too powerful."

"That's why it will take a few days to completely dissolve the seal."

Galadriel nodded. "That's good. Remember to keep this strictly confidential."

Nearby, Tricia was still holding the golden egg in the same position as before.

Chen Kun, who was in the golden egg, had long heard their conversation through his outstanding hearing.

"I didn't expect the Elf Dew to even need to be sealed. Looks like I can completely get rid of this eggshell after this!"

Chen Kun was agitated. Trish sensed his emotions and was puzzled.

But she had been denied the right to speak, so she was not even qualified to ask questions.

At this moment, outside the Golden Forest.

A few elf envoys flew across the ground quickly, their powerful perception covering the outer area of this golden forest.

However, as soon as they flew away, a man walked out of the shadows.

Clearly, he was not an ordinary human. Otherwise, he would have been discovered long ago.

"I didn't expect the elves to become so much stronger. The information was indeed right."

The man's voice was a little hoarse. Although he looked like a young man, his eyes flickered with depths that did not belong to his appearance.

He came slowly to the boundary of the Golden Forest, then stopped.

Crouching, he took out a gauze shirt as thin as a cicada's wing from the backpack he carried. He could see three rings symbolizing identity and status on his fingers.

There was only one human on the current Dolan Continent who could receive such treatment.

'Demigod Magister Jax.'

He had participated in the Abyssal War 350 years ago and knew Galadriel.

However, the fundamental positions of both sides were different after all, so they did not interact much after the war.

The reason why he came this time was that the elves had been frequently collecting materials for the Philosopher's Blood for more than ten years.

Although there were many materials that could be collected, some too rare materials could only be bought.

This also caused the news to leak.

Although the elves had never been a combative race, such a thing would inevitably attract the attention of the various empires.

Therefore, although the three empires maintained the war on the surface, they still secretly entrusted it to Jax.

The purpose of Jax's trip was to completely figure out what the elves were doing collecting so many materials for the Philosopher's Blood.

This was because the elves had always prided themselves on being noble.

Although the Philosopher's Blood was the item with the richest magic power on this continent, with the arrogance of the elves, it was unlikely to be used.

All kinds of anomalies also interested Jax.

"I hope I get something this time."

In order to successfully infiltrate the Golden Forest, Jax even specially brought the divine veil.

The elves had their Elven Goddess, so humans naturally had gods they believed in.

This divine veil was a divine artifact that had obtained the blessing of the gods. It could completely hide a person's aura and ignore any magic defense below a high-level Forbidden Spell.

Of course, such a heaven-defying divine artifact had very strict usage restrictions. Every time it was used, it had to be worshiped for five years.

Jax put the divine veil on. His aura instantly disappeared like a breeze.

Then he passed through the outermost magic barrier of the Golden Forest without resistance.

A few days later, the most tightly guarded barrier of Forbidden Spells rose in the Jadeite City as usual.

Galadriel's solemn-looking hand held a transparent bottle. Although the bottle was small, this contained the hundreds of years of hard work of the entire elves!
