Chapter 161

There are some common small flying insects and bees in the farmland, but these insects only feed on pollen and nectar and cannot produce qualified honey at all.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei even had Moli find several wild beehives nearby and observe them.

The honeycomb contains mature nectar.

This nectar is made by bees collecting nectar from all the nearby flowers.

They even found nectar from the flowers of the Golden Vine Pumpkin, but not from the Star Berry flowers.

Perhaps level two magical plants are too advanced for these ordinary little bees, and they simply cannot convert the nectar of the Star Berry into honey.

With half a flower that Xie Juanhan had given him dangling from his mouth, Telingewei said, "I wrote to the adventurers to see if they could find any special bees."

"Write it down." Xie Juanhan looked at the berry field. "I think it's almost impossible for special wild bees to find this berry field on their own. We'll have to figure it out ourselves."

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei chose a day to write to their friends, inquiring about the special bees.

Xie Juanhan also sent special letters to the various plant fairies.

When they first planned to plant, the planting fairies from various races sent them a lot of seeds.

Planting fairies deal with crops quite often, so if any race knew anything about special bees, Xie Juanhan thought the planting fairies were the most likely.

Soon, letters came back from all directions, but none of them brought good news.

The plant fairies of all races had never heard of bees capable of collecting nectar from magical plants on a large scale.

It's possible that magical plants in the wild wouldn't bloom on such a large scale at the same time.

Therefore, bees that specialize in collecting magical plant flowers cannot evolve in the wild.

Xie Juanhan opened each reply letter, and with each one, his disappointment grew.

When he received the reply from the Elf, the Elf Priest Yiluo did not answer whether he knew about the special bees, but instead asked him a strange question.

Xie Juanhan unfolded the letter for Telingewei to see, blinking in confusion. "What are other races? Are there bee-like races in this world?"

Telingewei looked down at the letter.

On the letter, Priest Yiluo had written a key question in beautiful cursive script: Must it be bees? Are other races acceptable?

Xie Juanhan searched through all the magical knowledge in his mind, but still couldn't figure out what the other races were.

Back in his hometown, he had worked with bees and knew that for bees to make honey, they needed to use enzymes in their bodies to convert sucrose in nectar into fructose and glucose.

Are there other local organisms that can secrete converting enzymes?

Or can they make honey using magic?

Telingewei stared at the letter, deep in thought for a moment, then gently shook his head.

He hadn't expected any magical creature to be able to make honey like bees.

Judging from Yiluo's tone, it's clear that there's some creature that can replace the bee.

Even though he couldn't immediately recall what kind of creature it was, Xie Juanhan replied to the letter without hesitation, asking the other party to recommend such a creature.

The little messenger bird carried Xie Juanhan and the others' letters into the sky, flying towards the Elf Forest.

However, before the little messenger bird could even fly out of the Magic Forest, a large flock of creatures riding Demon Bird roared into the air above the farmland.

Moli, who was on guard around the farmland, spotted the guys immediately.

It cautiously ran to the edge of the farmland, its wolfish eyes fixed upwards. "Awooo!"

The deep howl of the wolf carried a clear warning.

Biological probe riding on the back of the Demon Bird:

"It's Demon Wolf!"

"Oh, there's Griffin too!"

"What a huge Griffin! Aren't Griffin supposed to live in remote highlands?"

Those were none other than swarms of winged little fairies—

No, she doesn't look like a fairy.

Moli sniffed the air and keenly distinguished between the creatures above and the fairies.

These creatures possess a strong natural aura, unlike fairies, and are more like Elf.

However, no matter what kind of creature it is, Moli will not allow them to approach the farmland without permission.

Nibote, standing nearby, acted according to Moli's signals.

Seeing Moli's serious expression, Nibote rushed out without a word and shouted a warning at the group of creatures at close range, "Awooo! Awooo!"

The creatures, carrying small bundles on their backs, had already jumped off the Demon Bird's back and were flapping their wings as they flew towards the farmland.

Startled by the sight of the Griffin rushing out and yelling, they quickly grabbed their small bundles, flapped their wings frantically, and turned back onto the Demon Bird's back.

Nibote's eyes were fixed on the Demon Bird high in the sky.

If they hadn't run away, things would have been fine. But as soon as they tried to run, Nibote couldn't hold back his claws. He pushed off the ground, leaped into the air, spread his huge wings, and charged upwards at almost a ninety-degree angle.

The Demon Bird was so frightened that it lost all its feathers. It had been circling above the farmland, but upon seeing the Griffin, it immediately shrieked and swooped into the sky.

"Awoo--" Moli warned from below.

Upon hearing the warning, Nibote paused in his pursuit of the Demon Bird, instead circling in the air to keep watch.

"Chirp!" Hearing the noise, the Companion Beast rushed out from the Magic Forest.

They looked up at the unfamiliar visitors who had flown high into the sky.

They were too far away to see clearly, but they knew they were outsiders.

"Chirp!" Harper greeted Moli, signaling Moli to stay on guard while they went back to get help, then turned and ran.

The Companion Beast rushed over in a flurry, then scattered in a flurry.

The Demon Bird high in the sky dared not land.

They just hover and circle high in the sky.

Xie Juanhan and Telingewei arrived quickly.

Upon seeing them, Moli's shouts softened, and Nibote also suppressed his fighting spirit.

All the furry creatures ran to the dragons' feet and snuggled up to them affectionately.

--Mainly next to Xie Juanhan.

"Hello—" Xie Juanhan waved to the sky, "Are you guests who have come from afar?"

"Hello! Lord Silver Dragon!"

These guests from afar poked their heads out to greet the Demon Bird.

Realizing that the Demon Wolf and Griffin had indeed stopped attacking, they once again carried their packs, flapped their wings, and flew down from the Demon Bird.

"Lord Silver Dragon, we are Flower Elf. We heard from the Greater Elf that you need Elf who can make nectar here, so we came—"

The Flower Elf introduced themselves loudly, sunlight shining on their translucent wings, making them look beautiful and divine.

When Telingewei heard their self-introductions, his expression turned somewhat strange.

Xie Juanhan caught a glimpse of Telingewei's expression out of the corner of his eye and was about to ask him something.

Just then, a flock of Demon Bird flew in from the sky.

On the backs of these newly arrived Demon Bird sat a group of Flower Elf carrying small bundles.

The new Flower Elf flapped their wings and swooped down from the sky, pulling out various petals and berries from their small bundles and hurling them at the group of Flower Elf in front of them.

"Despicable Blue-Winged Ones! I knew you'd sneak over here."

"Come on! If you Green Wings hadn't sneaked over here, how would you have run into us?!"

"We're doing this to prevent you from sneaking over first!"

While the Flower Elf were arguing, they started throwing berries and flowers at each other.

Petals and berries flew through the air in an instant, just like snowballs flying around in mid-air during a snowball fight.

Telingewei pulled Xie Juanhan back.

Harper and the others quickly grabbed the little fur ball from Nibote's tail and dragged the eager Griffin backward.

Moli stayed close to Xie Juanhan, protecting him.

Xie Juanhan didn't expect that the two groups of Flower Elf would start fighting before they could even exchange a word with them.

Xie Juanhan stretched out his arm and intercepted a berry in mid-air, sniffed it, rinsed it briefly with water, and then tasted it.

The berries have a sweet and refreshing flavor with a unique berry aroma.

They taste better than the bland berries that have recently grown in the Magic Forest.

It seems the Flower Elf are quite capable.

If you're not capable, you won't find any delicious berries.

Xie Juanhan stuffed the remaining half of the berry into Telingewei's mouth and asked, "What's wrong? You haven't been looking quite right."

Telingewei chewed on the berries in his mouth and said softly, "I know both groups of Flower Elf."

A question mark appeared above Xie Juanhan's head.

Telingewei: "They used to be Flower Elf from the Magic Forest. They fought with me and then ran away."

Xie Juanhan: "Huh?"

Chapter 161 [VIP]

The Flower Elf in the air were still throwing berries and petals at each other.

Xie Juanhan stretched out his arm to scoop up the berries in mid-air and ate them while listening to Telingewei recount what happened back then.

The story of the Flower Elf and the Black Dragon is simple: the ancestors of the Flower Elf disliked the powerful dragon and, unable to subdue it, moved their entire tribe.

These Flower Elf clearly no longer knew much about their ancestors' stories.

They angrily threw down the petals and berries, then flew over in unison, hands on hips, seeking Xie Juanhan's help to settle the matter.

"Lord Silver Dragon--" The two Flower Elf spoke at the same time, then glared at each other before turning to Xie Juanhan together.

Their movements were so synchronized that it was almost like a theatrical performance.

Xie Juanhan couldn't help but chuckle, and smiled under the gaze of the Flower Elf.

The Flower Elf stared at him with wide eyes.

Stared at by the Flower Elf, Habei, standing beside Xie Juanhan's legs, couldn't help but let out a small burp. "Burp."
