Chapter 30 The Reward of the Fruit of Life?
Chapter 30 The Reward of the Fruit of Life?
In this battle, 11,342 elves were injured, of whom more than 3,000 were seriously injured.
Fendona felt downcast when she thought of the 2,719 people who had died in the battle.
Although this casualty ratio is already an unprecedented miracle.
But more than 2,700 vibrant lives were ultimately lost forever.
The joy of victory was instantly overshadowed by a heavy sadness.
She waved her hand, signaling the squad leader to step back, and silently gazed at the mountain of demon corpses about to be buried in the giant pit in the distance, remaining silent for a long time.
When elves die, they return to the embrace of the goddess of nature, while the corpses of demons become nourishment for the World Tree.
"Beep—"
Just then, a loud eagle cry descended from the sky.
A magnificent griffin landed on the open ground, and a royal messenger dismounted and quickly ran to Fendona, kneeling on one knee.
Dozens of hippogriffs and griffins carrying dozens of wooden crates descended slowly behind them.
"Your Highness! A personal letter from Her Majesty the Queen and the first batch of reinforcements!"
Fendona perked up and quickly took the letter.
On the letter, the Queen's elegant and powerful handwriting lavishly praised the victory as "a miracle worthy of being recorded in history."
She also expressed her desire to meet Lin Mo and hoped that Fendona could invite Lin Mo to Avenor.
At the end of the letter, the Queen wrote with emphasis:
"Please convey to Lord Lin Mo, the distinguished guest from another world, the highest respect of the Elven race."
"He is the brightest star our people saw in the darkness, and he won the friendship of our elven race."
"To express our gratitude, we may reward them with a Fruit of Life!"
Fendona was slightly startled upon seeing this.
"They're actually using the Fruit of Life as a reward?"
"However..." she thought for a moment,
"Without the help of Lord Lin Mo and his clan, the city of Lostia might have already fallen."
Thinking of this, she felt fortunate and felt that Lin Mo deserved this reward.
She put away the letter and went forward to open the wooden box that the elves had just unloaded.
Inside these wooden crates were a total of eight hundred brand-new composite bows and eight hundred repeating crossbows, along with tens of thousands of matching arrows.
They gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen, but to Fendona, they were clearly a beacon of hope.
The surrounding elves immediately erupted in excitement!
"Excellent! With these divine artifacts, the demons will no longer be a threat, and we will surely be able to protect our homeland!"
"Haha, with these crossbows and the ones we produced ourselves, if the demons come again, we'll make sure they never return!"
"Praise be to the Goddess of Nature, praise be to Her Majesty the Queen, the embodiment of wisdom!"
They gasped in surprise and swarmed around them enthusiastically.
He caressed these "divine weapons" that had just displayed their might on the battlefield as if they were his lover.
Fendona was in a great mood. She glanced in Lin Mo's direction and went home to get a box.
After riding the griffin to the top of the World Tree, which was heavily protected by the elders, they flew down.
She came up to Lin Mo and said:
"Lord Lin Mo."
Lin Mo extricated himself from the adoration of a group of female elves.
"What is it, Your Highness?"
Fendona solemnly took out a small box wrapped in moonlight silk from her bosom.
"Our Queen has written to invite you to visit Avenor when you have the time!"
"And to express our gratitude for your help, we've prepared a small token of our appreciation. We hope you enjoy it!"
Lin Mo smiled and said:
"It's nothing, it's only right that we help each other out."
Then Fendona slowly opened the box.
A fruit the size of an egg, entirely emerald green, radiating a soft glow and a powerful sense of life, lies quietly inside.
The moment the fruit appeared, the surrounding air seemed to be cleansed.
Lin Mo's eyes widened.
"What...what is this?"
"This is the 'Fruit of Life,' a treasure that the World Tree can only produce a few of every thousand years."
"Whether it's the nobles of the Holy Human Race or the high-ranking members of other races, they would be more than willing to accept it!"
After Fendona finished her introduction, she looked at Lin Mo with a strange expression and said:
"I see that your physique seems... somewhat weak, which is probably due to the fact that the human body is different from ours."
She carefully chose her words, afraid of hurting the pride of this great contributor.
"This Fruit of Life, once consumed, will not only double your lifespan but also transform you completely!"
"It will also greatly improve your physical fitness and injury recovery ability, making you immune to all diseases."
Double your lifespan!
A complete transformation!
Invulnerable to all diseases?
Each of these words, taken alone, could stir up a storm of bloodshed!
Lin Mo's breathing quickened instantly, and his heart pounded wildly.
Isn't this the ultimate elixir from cultivation novels?!
On Earth, he was a corporate slave burdened with debt and physically exhausted. Forget about extending his lifespan; he'd be lucky to even live to retirement.
Now, a miraculous fruit that can extend his life by several decades and comes with a super gene buff is right in front of him!
It's out! It's out!
If Qin Shi Huang were alive, he probably would have given him half of the country.
So if this thing could be brought back to Earth...
An incredibly audacious idea began to sprout wildly in his mind.
Take it back and let Academician Qian and the others study it!
If we could analyze the ingredients, even just to create a youth version...
Wouldn't the average life expectancy in the Great Xia Kingdom then skyrocket to two hundred years?
Because I have suffered, I know how difficult it is for ordinary people to live.
He... wanted to hold an umbrella for everyone.
Moreover, with this, the All-People Super Warrior Plan can be launched on the spot, unifying the entire Blue Star!
Let those like the United States and Japan go wherever it's hot!
Thinking of this, his heart burned with excitement.
