"Dude, you guys are seriously analyzing the personalities of fairies? Aren't they just born this way? Fairies are born with this kind of personality, which is why others hate them. Otherwise, how can you prove why they are all like this?" Valerie couldn't hold back anymore.
She felt there was nothing to analyze about those fairies; they were born evil, as if they were inherently wicked. She had disliked Daphne's arrogance when she first met her, but now that she was here, she realized that Daphne was actually a humble fairy.
The other fairies were even more exaggerated, as if they were born to be so annoying.
"Here you go. Don't interrupt the adults' discussion. Be good and listen to me." Li Ge casually tossed out a few packets of spirit liquid, which Valerie immediately caught.
Ignoring her complaints while she ate, Li Ge and the other two continued their analysis.
“If only nobles are like this, then I would think it might be a class issue. If most fairies are like this, then I really think that's how the fairy race is. But if everyone is like this... then it's hard to say…” Li Ge added.
"Well, you know, fairies have only been in this world for a few thousand years, although for most races, a few thousand years is an unimaginable length of time," Yilian sighed.
The mutant elves, strictly speaking, have only a few thousand years of history. Thousands of years ago, their ancestors were water elementals and had not yet made a pact with the goddess to become the mutant elves they are today.
In just a few years, the Morphlings seem to have completely separated from the water elementals, as if they had become two completely different races.
As for the fairies, according to the information that Yi Lian could find, they had only been in this world for less than five thousand years. Before that, they lived in the world of the Golden Emperor and only moved here more than five thousand years ago.
It is precisely because they failed to bring the Four Evil Gods with them when they moved that things have spiraled out of control.
"Fairies from thousands of years ago, while they might have some negative reputations, certainly weren't as universally hated as they are now. After all, one of the fairies was in Senior Karl's hero team. I looked up posts about fairies from three thousand years ago and found that most of them were just complaints about them being unsociable." Xiaoye seemed to be browsing the forum, sorting by time and searching through the long list of posts.
"And now, as you can see, any post that talks about fairies exudes an ominous aura."
"What's the situation like in this world, outside the fairy kingdom? What about the native inhabitants of this world?" Li Ge suddenly asked.
Yi Lian and Xiao Ye both shook their heads; clearly, they hadn't been able to find out what was going on outside of that.
So the group could only sigh. For them, the best way to obtain information was to search for it themselves. The school had a lot of information, but it wasn't all-encompassing, especially when it came to such private matters concerning a race.
But it's clear they all realize something: an alien species suddenly colonizing another planet, which could lead to racial wars, or, outside the fairy kingdom, hatred from other native races whose homes have been taken away.
And this arrogant attitude is perhaps, possibly, probably similar to that of certain races who think they have returned to the Promised Land.
Li Ge suddenly thought of something strange.
"Let's talk about something happier. Could that senior named 'Nya Li' really be another ring holder?" Li Ge suddenly changed the subject.
"I don't know, that's why we came here," Xiaoye replied.
"I can only say it's most likely, not certain," Yi Lian explained, then asked with some doubt, "By the way, why did the school actually entrust us with such an important task?"
Li Ge and Xiao Ye were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other.
Li Ge, in particular, twitched at the corner of her mouth.
Could he say that he was tricked by Abaddon again?
Or perhaps, Abaddon was the first to think of using a domain to seal the evil god, burying the sealing ring within the domain—a place that even the Church of Order couldn't find no matter how hard they searched.
It is clear that although the field has now become mainstream, from the vice principal and the three directors to the freshmen who may be just starting out in a few months, they will all study the field and gradually develop their own field.
However, it seems that currently only three people in the entire school possess true expertise in their respective fields.
Two of them were in their team.
Li Ge's domain is purely a matter of talent. According to Abaddon, in terms of domain, Li Ge's talent completely surpasses that of his original gem.
As for Xiaoye, perhaps she triggered some strange connection, which caused her to seem to have merged with a part of Li Ge's domain talent.
Yilian had actually figured this out a long time ago.
"So, no wonder this era was called the Era of Domains by your crazy teacher." Yi Lian sighed. As the person with the worst domain talent in the whole team, he deeply felt that without a domain, it seemed like he would really be abandoned by the times.
“Actually, the school had considered expanding the scope of entry into the field a long time ago, in order to produce as many talents as possible in the field, but as you can see, it was impossible. The school knew the strength of the field, but at that time it was a dead-end major.” Li Ge shrugged.
Therefore, the school has always regarded the field as the ultimate in magic, but now, the threshold for this ultimate has suddenly dropped, resulting in an effect similar to a magical revolution.
“If we don’t use the domain to deal with these seals, I estimate that they will still be dealt with in the same old way,” Li Ge said. “They will be guarded and stored by one administration after another, and when we are negligent, the four evil gods will suddenly break out of the seal and cause turmoil again.”
"Just like in old movies, the heroes of the past could deal with the Demon King, but they didn't kill him. They just sealed him away and left this mess to their descendants. Without a domain, this is probably the case."
Yi Lian asked, "I'll say something you might not like to hear: if we seal the ring with our domain, but then we die, what will our domain become?"
This question was instead asked of Li Ge.
He could only scratch his head, and finally, he offered his own guess.
"It might become an extremely hidden spatial rift somewhere in the subspace."
Li Ge thought to herself.
Abaddon seemed to have mentioned these things briefly, but it was just a casual remark, and Li Ge couldn't guarantee it was true.
To be honest, Li Ge didn't know anything about the subspace, so explaining the rifts within it was still too advanced for him.
However, he only needs to know one thing: most of the current magic and spell systems actually rely on the warp, and even the source of spiritual particles is in the warp. The God of Order is the gatekeeper of the warp. Having this basic knowledge from textbooks is enough.
As for the nature of the subspace, why the source of spiritual particles is the subspace, and other such profound questions, Li Ge doesn't even know the end of the universe, so how could he possibly know such profound questions?
“Daphne is still following her pace, but we also need to conduct our own investigations. Like what we just mentioned, what about other species outside the Fairy Kingdom? And is Senior Sister Naya really buried here? We need to investigate these kinds of information ourselves,” Li Ge said.
“Leave it to me, my abilities are best suited for this,” Xiaoye said.
"Then I'll take care of drawing their fire." Li Ge gave Xiao Ye a thumbs up.
He now estimates that he'll be surrounded by an aura of utter mockery whenever he stands in front of the fairies.
"Ok!"
After Xiaoye nodded, she sank into the shadows, as if sinking into the water.
Yi Lian looked at the spot where Xiao Ye had disappeared and couldn't help but click his tongue. He had always felt that Xiao Ye's ability was incredibly insidious, and apart from having to rely on shadows, it was the most sinister of abilities.
After all, this ability combines stealth, invisibility, evasion, assassination, combat, and defense. With so many mechanisms combined, it can only be described as incredibly cunning.
Being in the shadow, unless someone can use a spatial slash-level ability to cut through the shadow, Saya is invincible. She can also move quickly inside the shadow and live a normal life inside it.
The downside is that if someone knows the principle and uses it to achieve a similar effect to a shadowless lamp, Xiaoye's ability will instantly become ineffective, and her strength will be greatly reduced.
She lost to Daphne before because Daphne used three rising small suns to simulate the effect of a shadowless lamp, which immediately rendered her ability ineffective.
Even so, Xiaoye's shadow is still a treasure that will almost certainly be stored in the hands of God.
“Let’s go, let’s go out and take the hits together. It would be best if we could attract enough attention so that Xiaoye can gather intelligence more safely,” Li Ge said.
"Maybe I shouldn't go?" Yilian pointed to herself.
He felt that if he stood next to Li Ge, he might accidentally be overwhelmed by Li Ge's current domineering manner.
"No way, how can my good brother let me get scolded alone? Come on, let's go see how the demon is punished!" Li Ge was ready to cause trouble. They were going out shopping, and while attracting attention, they could also boost their heroic spirit points.
"Should I go too?"
"Correct!"
Meanwhile, the fairy royal family resides in that Gothic-style castle.
"Mother, I'm back!" Daphne said as she entered the palace.
It was a slightly older woman who was processing and reviewing intelligence sent up from the fairy kingdom.
"You're back? I heard you brought some friends back this time?" The Fairy Queen looked at Daphne, who, perhaps due to years of fatigue and work, had some wrinkles on her face, even though she was far from her lifespan.
It's also possible that he had a child late in life?
"I guess so, friends from other races." Daphne didn't deny it, but what she wanted to brag about most to her mother right now was that she had become the new chief.
Although this position of Chief is somewhat clownish—it wasn't a direct victory against Li Ge and the others, but rather a position he only attained after they graduated early and began their internships—it is still Chief, and at least it can make his mother a little happier.
She never knew who her father was, which seems to be quite normal among fairies. Basically, most fairies don't know who their fathers are. After all, in the fairy kingdom, it's practically impossible for people of other races to survive.
This is an absolutely matriarchal clan, because the fairies can only give birth to girls.
"Hmm? Congratulations, little Daphne." The Queen Mother seemed to find some comfort and relaxation after her work, stretching and yawning, while Daphne immediately went to massage her shoulders.
"By the way, Mother, do you know a senior named 'Nyali'?" Daphne felt that now was the right time, and seeing her mother's relaxed expression, she asked directly.
She hadn't forgotten that this trip home wasn't just about bringing friends over for fun; it was a mission from Li Ge and his team's execution department.
Although she seemed a little confused as to why she had acted so irrationally at the time, she immediately volunteered after learning that Li Ge and the others had taken on a mission related to fairies.
Perhaps it's vanity?
Maybe, but she's happy to help them find clues right now. When Li Ge asks her for help, she'll generously hand them over like a handout.
However, in an instant, she felt her mother's body stiffen.
"What's wrong, Mother?" Daphne asked immediately.
She actually remembered the name, similar to the kind of name you might occasionally hear once or twice in the clan, but you can't quite recall what it is.
"It's nothing. By the way, little Daphne, where did you hear that name from?" the Queen Mother said with a smile.
"Ah, it's like this, I saw a missing person record for a fairy of my kind at school, it said that Senior 'Nyali' was missing, so I made a little note of it." Daphne immediately tried to get away with it by being cute.
After all, if she really revealed that she had received a mission from the Execution Department, then she might really be finished.
"I see..."
The Queen Mother seemed to relax, and Daphne realized something.
The Empress Dowager clearly knows this senior; there's hope!
She immediately rubbed her hands together excitedly. It seemed that she still had to rely on herself to take charge. After all, in this situation, she could grasp the core of the mission in an instant and then complete the mission under the admiring gazes of Li Ge and the others.
Such vain thoughts inevitably arose in her mind.
"Mother, Mother? Do you know that senior? Or is there some story about her?" Daphne immediately began to whine.
After all, she was an only child, so she was pampered from a young age and was not afraid of anyone competing for her affection.
"I know him, but he's an ancestor who died a long time ago. All I know about him are some historical records." Seeing how happy her daughter was, the Queen Mother finally relented a little.
"Where?" Daphne asked immediately.
"Hmm... I don't know about that. That was many years ago. Even when I was a child, that senior was a legendary figure. So, your school might be wasting its time, since she really died a long time ago."
"Is she buried in the Fairy Kingdom? Is there a cemetery there? I want to go and pay my respects to this person who is both an ancestor and my senior," Daphne asked excitedly.
"No, not this one." The Queen Mother smiled and reached out to rub Daphne's cheek. "However, our little Daphne has grown up quite a bit."
"Hey hey hey..."
The atmosphere between the two was very harmonious, as if there was no generation gap at all.
Finally, Daphne found some historical records about Senior Nyarli. Although she didn't find her definitively, it was still a breakthrough.
