Infinite Chimera Creation

If Bai Ye could see that magical item called "Magic Rune," he would surely be able to see the strange rune inside his body that is emitting a blood-red light and trying to stain his soul with blood.
Not long after that spirit left, on a tree he passed, a slender thorny branch suddenly emerged from the head of a Gastrea that was lying quietly, swaying slightly in the air.
After swaying gently a few times, a crystalline, bloodshot eye formed at the tip of the thorn, gazing sadly at the cave below, and uttering a faint sigh like a chilling wind blowing through the valley.
"Does this mean that time travelers can't be trusted? Could it be that seven years of feelings were all a lie?"
Chapter 131 Revision
"Hey, Soyog, I've come to find you."
Looking at the unfamiliar soul in front of him who was greeting him so warmly, Soyog asked hesitantly,
"You...you are Bai Ye??"
Bai Ye readily nodded and explained.
"I'm being watched closely by those guys and can't get out at all, but I don't want you to wait any longer, so I'm using this soul form to come find you."
Upon hearing Bai Ye say that he was being closely watched, Soyog asked with some concern,
"Are you really okay? If the situation is really serious, you don't need to come all the way to see me."
"Don't worry, don't worry. The reason they want to take me back is because they want my snake-patterned ability to drive away chimeras. Right now, nobody knows if the snake pattern will transfer after the owner dies and be inherited by someone else. At most, they can only imprison me; they wouldn't dare to really harm me."
Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand, believing he had figured out Gu Luo's purpose in taking him back. Naturally, he was no longer worried about his safety. All he could think about now was how to get rid of Gu Luo and live a free and easy life with the girl he loved.
Although Bai Ye spoke with great conviction, Suoyuege was still not at ease. After all, when Bai Ye and Zhu Bi left, they seemed very heavy-hearted, as if they were going to the execution ground.
The young elf wasn't good at hiding her feelings. She looked at her friend with concern and gently advised her...
"If you need any help, please let me know, and I will do my best to help you."
Hearing this, Bai Ye was overjoyed. He had been worrying about how to persuade Soyog to take him to see the Elf Queen, and now that Soyog had brought it up himself, he certainly wouldn't stand on ceremony and immediately said...
"In that case, I do have something I need your help with, Soyog. Could you introduce me to the Elf Queen?"
Upon hearing that Bai Ye wanted to see Her Majesty the Queen, Soyog immediately hesitated. All the elves knew Her Majesty the Queen's personality; she disliked troublesome matters and abhorred boring conversations.
If Soyog really went to Her Majesty the Queen and said, "I have a friend from the outside world who wants to see you," there would probably be two outcomes: either Her Majesty the Queen is in a bad mood and personally takes care of Bai Ye, who is trying to bother her, or Her Majesty the Queen is in a good mood and sends an enforcer to take care of Bai Ye.
Of the three rules that the Elf Kingdom has had since its inception, the first is that no outside creature is allowed to enter the Elf Kingdom without the Queen's personal order, and the second is that no elf is allowed to lead outside creatures into the Elf Kingdom without the Queen's order.
If Soyog were to bring Bai Ye into the Elf Kingdom without consulting Her Majesty the Queen, he estimated that he would not only be severely punished, but Bai Ye would also likely be executed on the spot by those law enforcement officers.
Having already considered Bai Ye a friend, Soyog naturally couldn't bring himself to lead him into danger. After a moment's thought, Soyog decided to politely decline Bai Ye's offer.
But before Soyog could speak, the tiny soul that lay dormant deep within her soul, bearing the exact same appearance as Blanche, trembled slightly.
Suddenly, Soyog's thoughts underwent a significant change. She gently touched the soul in front of her, feeling its slightly cool touch, and said in a light tone,
"No problem, Her Majesty the Queen is a very nice person with a gentle personality. As long as I say you are my friend, she will definitely see you."
"Are you sure it's alright? The Elf Queen really won't punish you for this?"
Soyog agreed so easily that Bai Ye hesitated. Although she had never met the Elf Queen before, and this mysterious queen had only appeared a few times in the comics.
However, Bai Ye understood one thing: the top leader of any powerful organization wasn't someone you could just meet whenever you wanted. In order to make contact with the Elf Queen, Bai Ye specifically reviewed the plot of the comic in detail and found some information that might appeal to her, intending to have Soyog deliver it to the Elf Queen.
But before he could even take these things out, Soyog had already agreed without showing any sign of difficulty, which inevitably made Bai Ye feel a little unreal.
"Tch, aren't you being a little too hasty?"
Seeing Bai Ye's reaction, Blanche, who was far away in Yuan Yuan's laboratory, scoffed in annoyance.
The white gap left by Yuan Yuan has coordinates on the other end that are located on Bai Ye. Bai Ye's physical body is not moving at this time. He is only using the soul of a Gastrea that he once killed to find Soyog. Logically speaking, Blanche should not be able to monitor the controlled soul.
Fortunately, Søyorg's body contains Blanche's soul seed. Through this soul seed, Blanche can use Søyorg's eyes to monitor the soul controlled by the White Night.
Through his observations, Blanche had a general idea of what was going on. It seemed that the stronger Bai Ye's thoughts of betrayal were, the faster the "Rebellion" rune would grow. If he really did betray Bai Ye, the rune might actually take shape.
Therefore, when Bai Ye asked to see the Elf Queen, in order to further promote his betrayal, Blanche didn't hesitate to influence Soyog's mind through the Soul Seed, making her agree to take Bai Ye to see the Elf Queen.
However, Blanche was still a bit too hasty, causing Bai Ye to hesitate. Although she hadn't yet suspected Soyog, her impulse to see the Elf Queen was suppressed by reason and diminished considerably.
"Damn it, I'll just give up this backup body if I have to."
Blanche cursed viciously, gritted her teeth, and once again influenced Soyog's thoughts through the Soul Seed.
Soyog smiled slightly at Bai Ye and said,
"Seeing Her Majesty the Queen is easy, but entering the Elf Kingdom is not so easy. You must meet a very important condition."
Hearing that there were other conditions, Bai Ye felt slightly relieved and asked seriously,
"Although I don't know what conditions you're referring to, I believe I can definitely do it."
Soyog's cheeks flushed red, and he lowered his head slightly, seemingly a little shy, as he spoke.
"The Elven Kingdom does not welcome outsiders; we only allow our own people to enter. In other words, if you want to enter the Elven Kingdom, you must become a resident. And the only way for outsiders to become citizens of the Elven Kingdom is... is..."
Seeing Soyog's shy demeanor and recalling her earlier words, Bai Ye suddenly had an unbelievable thought, and stammered, "..."
"Could it be... a guardian, a protector?"
Blushing, Soyog suppressed his embarrassment, nodded, and answered in a voice barely audible.
"No, that's right. The only way for you to enter the Elf Kingdom is to become, to become my guardian."
In an instant, ecstasy surged into Bai Ye's heart, and reason seemed to have vanished without a trace.
Chapter 132 Doubts
A series of events made Bai Ye realize his identity as a "transmigrator" for the first time since he transmigrated.
First, the woman he loves takes the initiative to confess her feelings when he is in danger. In fact, if his true self were not present, she might even offer herself to him.
He then entered the Elf Kingdom, a place where no outsiders had ever entered before. After nervously paying his respects to the Elf Queen, he was surprised to find that she actually took a liking to him. She spoke to him in a very friendly manner, not only granting his request to attack the monster's lair but also declaring him a friend of the entire Elf race and allowing him to move freely within the Elf Kingdom.
Looking at the wondrous scenery of the Elf Kingdom, which could never be seen from the outside world, and enjoying the friendly attitude of the elves when they greeted him, Bai Ye couldn't help but feel elated.
Having just transmigrated to this world, in order to save his life, he carefully avoided those powerful Gastrea creatures every day, used all his brainpower to calculate the location where Yuan Yuan would descend, and then risked his life to sneak there, entrusting his fate to the heavens, hoping to obtain the original life essence.
After finally obtaining the life essence, he took the initiative to talk to Guro, the future sage, and become his family in order to cling to him.
After that, he did many, many things, worked hard to develop his abilities, and racked his brains to complete the tasks assigned by Yuan Yuan, but he still failed to catch Yuan Yuan's eye and was not recruited into his ranks.
But things are different now!!
A passionate cry echoed in his heart, and Bai Ye's expression became incredibly fervent.
[Now someone appreciates me! Finally, someone has discovered my special qualities! I've made connections with the Elf Queen! I no longer have to be at the mercy of Guluo! And even, I no longer have to be at the mercy of Yuan Yuan!]
On one hand, Yuan Yuan still calls Blanche "senior sister," and on the other hand, now that he has climbed up to Blanche's level, Bai Ye naturally hopes that Blanche's strength is strong enough. In Bai Ye's mind, Blanche's strength and status have been infinitely elevated, from being on par with Yuan Yuan at the beginning to now far surpassing Yuan Yuan.
"This is the kind of treatment that time travelers should receive."
Bai Ye let out a long breath and sighed unconsciously, while constantly envisioning his bright future.
If something good suddenly happens to Bai Ye, he might suspect a conspiracy. However, when a series of good things happen to him, Bai Ye, who has always been proud of his transmigrator identity but suppresses this pride due to insufficient strength, will think, "Ah, my protagonist template is finally starting to work."
"Huh? A time traveler? What's that?"
Miss Soyog, whose entire race consisted of transmigrators, heard Bai Ye's exclamation, tilted her head cutely, looked at Mr. Bai Ye beside her who was still proud of his transmigrator identity, and asked softly.
Bai Ye, who felt that his transmigrator benefits had finally arrived after being nearly ten years overdue, was no longer as nervous as before when the word "transmigrator" was mentioned.
Grinning, Bai Ye revealed what he thought was a sophisticated and mysterious smile, but to others it just looked like a monstrous grin, and explained,
"A time traveler is a special being who carries great fortune. No matter what they do, everything goes smoothly. Not only people, but even the world will help them."
"Huh? Is Bai Ye a time traveler? That's amazing!"
Clearly, Soyog's admiring gaze gave Bai Ye a great sense of accomplishment, and his grin widened, revealing his gleaming white teeth.
Looking at Bai Ye's performance, Blanche asked incredulously with a disappointed expression,
"Is this the little guy you've been training for seven years, junior? His temperament is terrible. He can't find his place. He gets smug and arrogant as soon as he gains a little power. He's just like a petty person who has gained power. Any one of your subordinates is better than him."
In Blanche's memory, her junior should be an extremely strict person. When they were creating chimeras, even chimeras that she thought were already quite good would be ruthlessly destroyed by Yuan Yuan if they had the slightest flaw.
It was precisely because of this preconceived notion that Blanche could not understand how Bai Ye, whom she disliked, could have been patiently nurtured by Yuan Yuan for seven years without being eliminated.
Understanding what Blanche was wondering, Yuan Yuan smiled slightly and explained,
"I just wanted to see if there was anything special about naturally occurring transmigrators. After all, the barriers between worlds are not so easy to cross. I suspect that his transmigration might be due to this world actively drawing his soul."
By this point in Yuan Yuan's explanation, Blanche had already grasped his thoughts, but she did not interrupt him and continued to listen quietly.
"If my guess is correct, then he is very likely the so-called destined protagonist. Of course, this guess no longer holds true after I saw the child with the protagonist's magic mark, but I still believe that he must have something unique about him to be able to travel through time, so I have not dealt with him, but have continued to observe him."
"Although his performance in all aspects is unsatisfactory and does not meet my standards at all, which makes me very annoyed, it's like asking you to keep a human observation diary. No matter how much you hate humans, you can't just kill the observation target in order to get detailed data, right?"
Hearing Yuan Yuan's final example, Blanche felt relieved. Her aversion to humans was like an ordinary girl's aversion to insects. However, in order to collect data, she could also observe humans with the same mindset as an ordinary girl keeping an insect observation diary.
"And then, did you discover anything special about him during those seven years?"
Composing himself, Blanche's expression turned serious as he asked softly.
"No, nothing at all. He's just like any ordinary person you'd see on the street—ambitious, but lacking the ability and drive to achieve his ambitions. There's a selfish and cruel side to his soul, but when he's safe, he also displays false compassion. He craves to be relied upon and respected, but at crucial moments, he's always defeated by his own cowardice. He's neither black nor white, but completely in the most annoying gray area."
Nodding, Blanche had already formed a general image of White Night in her mind, and asked,
Are you still planning to continue observing him?
"Although seven years haven't yielded any results, I should continue observing. However, the nature of transmigrators isn't important to me right now; what matters is the magic runes. Once he successfully develops magic runes within his body, I will kill him and seize them."
Although there are two types of runes to acquire, Yuan Yuan does not believe that someone whose rune signifies "rebellion" will truly submit.

Chapter 133 War Beasts
"The Elf Kingdom is now in a state of Level 1 war. All main combat elves are to arrive at the War Beast Reserve within three minutes. I repeat, the Elf Kingdom is now in a state of Level 1 war. All main combat elves are to arrive at the War Beast Reserve within three minutes."
A cold yet grand female voice echoed throughout the entire Elf Kingdom. Upon hearing this voice, the elves were all taken aback. Immediately, the adult elves with strong fighting spirit showed joy on their faces. No matter what they were doing, they immediately put it down and ran as fast as they could into the depths of the Elf Kingdom.
Bai Ye also heard the voice. After a slight pause, he looked at Soyog with excitement and asked loudly,
"Is this an attack on the monster's lair? Her Majesty is so decisive! It's only been less than a day since we finished discussing the attack on the monster's lair!"
Soyog smiled and nodded, confirming Bai Ye's guess.
