"Spit it out, little fellow."
Liszt cradled a restless Rubber Bug in his palm and trudged through the mud to a long-planned vacant rubber plantation—the rubber plantations would eventually cover more than ten thousand acres, so their locations had been mapped out in advance.
The Rubber Bug opened its mouth, and a faint green glow flew out.
It was a tiny seed. The moment it landed, it took root and sprouted, then shot upward, spread its branches, and unfurled its leaves at a speed visible to the naked eye, gradually growing into a colossal Bug Grass tree.
Watching such a vivid scene of plant growth stirred Liszt's thoughts. "A seed can grow into a towering tree, and Elf Bugs are nurtured this way... Then what exactly is the magical fire seed within me? What connection does it have with the seeds of Elf Bug Grass?"
Elves could be considered beings nurtured from seeds.
If his guess was correct, Fire Dragons were also nurtured from magical fire seeds.
That meant elves and dragons were both born from seeds, and their seeds clearly were not ordinary seeds, but condensed magic—Elf Bug Grass seeds also retained the function of ordinary plant seeds, whereas a magical fire seed probably could not be planted in the ground and made to sprout.
