Rules for raising elves [Interstellar Apocalypse]

Today is Mo Xili McCarthy's celebration banquet, but Alice, who had started preparing three months in advance, was unexpectedly absent.

"Are you really okay? Mussel said you were sick, and I'm worried about you." The elf looked worriedly at Miss Goldfish, who was hiding her face under the thick quilt.

"My head is so dizzy... I feel so uncomfortable... But if the lovely Sia can stay with me tonight, then my illness will definitely heal faster..." Alice said weakly, as if she was ready at any time. Looks like he's about to faint.

"..." Mussel rolled his eyes at this poor acting.

But their kind and simple Miss Shia is very fond of this trick.

Xia carefully touched the other person's forehead. Although she didn't know the purpose of this action, Leo always did it every time she felt uncomfortable.

The body temperature of water beasts is generally low, so she didn't find anything. She could only comfort the other person gently: "If you can get better soon, then I am willing to stay with you."

She couldn't even perform any basic healing magic now. She felt that if she could get better just by being with him, she would be very willing to do so.

After all, Alice is the only precious same-sex friend she knows.

Alice showed a successful smile under the quilt.

Mussel wanted to stop her again, but unfortunately the elf's attitude was extremely determined, so he had no choice but to agree to her request to stay at Alice's house for the night.

Today is Mo Xili's celebration banquet. All the big shots in Hayward gathered at McCarthy's house. Caleb and the others finally found the opportunity to go to the genetic testing center to arrange everything.

Sia heard that Alice was sick, so she came to visit her no matter what. Fortunately, almost all of the rose garden was now filled with their own people, and even Alice Silko's personal guards had been replaced by them. Replaced everything down to the feet.

Mussel thought about it, and a "sick" Alice couldn't make any big waves, so she finally agreed.

Leaving twice as many guards behind, he left Alice's residence and prepared to go to the McCarthy house to meet with Mo Xili.

After all, he is Mo Xili's closest lieutenant and a retainer of the McCarthy family. It is obviously inappropriate for such an occasion not to occur.

Alice, who was under the quilt, listened carefully to the footsteps getting farther and farther away. Finally, when there was no movement at all, she immediately jumped up from the bed. She didn't look "weak" at all.

She grabbed the confused elf and said excitedly: "Xia! Do you want to go out to play secretly? You haven't visited Highgard at night, have you?"

No, she hadn't even visited during the day. The elf shook his head honestly.

Alice was even more proud. She approached Sia's ear mysteriously: "There is a particularly big underground auction in Hayward today! Let me tell you a secret. There is a secret passage in my basement that leads to the rose. Outside the park, we can quietly..."

Unexpectedly, Xia shook her head like a rattle: "Caleb told me not to go outside. It's very dangerous outside. Caleb will be worried if he finds out."

Alice immediately said: "If we go quietly, doesn't he know? And Felix promised to go with us. He will meet us at the tunnel exit. We dress up as boys and go to see Come back in one glance!”

"But..." Sia was still hesitant. But when she mentioned Felix, his beautiful and passionate eyes immediately came to her mind.

In terms of aura, Sia didn't think the other person was a bad person.

"And it is said that even the attendants at the auction are all beautiful boys, and the meals are unlimited!"

Feeling Sia's wavering, Alice immediately added a strong dose of medicine: "Hmph! If you don't go, I'll go alone!"

After saying that, he immediately put on an angry look, turned his back to Sia and started collecting things.

"You can't be alone! It's very dangerous! Then...that...that's fine, but you have to promise me that you will come back soon!"

-

No one knows why there is a secret passage leading outside in Alice's basement, but Alice herself seems to be very familiar with this tunnel.

"I discovered this accidentally after I moved here. There seemed to be a fire here a long time ago, and a female lady seemed to have died! What was her name...Martha? After the renovation, many people were unwilling to live here, but I especially like the hillside behind it... Later I would occasionally run out from here to play." Alice explained in a low voice with a flashlight.

Sia followed closely in Alice's footsteps and stuffed her hair into the woolen hat Alice gave her. Although she was still a little nervous, she felt a sense of stimulation and excitement in her heart.

In her vague memory, it seemed that she had never done anything so "rebellious".

The name Sia is always accompanied by words like "powerful", "gentle", and "trustworthy".

In her long life, it seemed that she had never done anything that went against other people's expectations.

They had already changed their clothes. Alice was wearing a green jacket and sweatpants, and Sia was wearing a pair of gray overalls with a cream-white sweater and a beanie of the same color.

Because Alice's residence was close to the outskirts of the rose garden, the secret passage was not very long, and soon they saw the light.

Felix was already there with a lantern.

"Hello...Hello." Sia was still a little reserved, but still greeted politely.

"Good evening, Miss Shia."

Felix curled his lips and smiled, his purple braid swaying slightly along with the movement. Only then did Shia realize that the person in front of her was not wearing that strange robe, but was wearing a decent black dress.

The smoothly cut suit outlines his tall and handsome figure, which is a little less feminine and more masculine.

"You look so beautiful today." Ellie did not hide the appreciation in her eyes.

"Thank you for the compliment." Alex bent down and gently helped Miss Goldfish sit in the car, then turned around and extended his hand to Sia.

The hover car was still a bit too high for Sia. The elf thought for a while, and then imitated Alice and placed her hand on the other person's palm.

It's cool, but holds firmly.

-

The Oaks Auction is indeed the most unique underground auction in Hayward.

It looks unremarkable on the outside, but it has seven consecutive underground floors. There are casinos, dance halls, and bars. The colorful neon lights mark their different functional areas.

The guests here all wear half-masks of various colors, hiding their various identities. Beautiful attendants shuttle among them, offering various drinks to the guests.

Alice chose a fiery red fox mask, and Shia chose a cute bunny mask.

"This way, please." After reading the invitation presented by Felix, the attendant led them to the reserved seats.

Their position was very good, hidden and able to have a panoramic view of everything in the auction, but Alice was nervous and excited. After sitting down, the hand holding Sia was sweating, and she had no intention of caring about why Felik A "stylist" can book such a position.

"Do you need anything to drink? Sir, and the two of you..." A handsome young waiter came forward and asked softly, and glanced at the two "little boys" who looked like children.

"A glass of champagne, and...two glasses of apple juice."

Although Alice is about to become an adult, the size of the female is already small. Dressed up, she could be thought of as a young teenager, but Shia looks like a cub in her early teens.

"Okay, sir." The waiter left in response. He didn't ask why he brought two children to a place like this, but kept an appropriate silence.

Sia just wanted to be a quiet kid who could only drink juice and eat snacks without mercy, but Alice was so excited that she wanted to share everything she saw.

"Have you seen the lady sitting over there?" She pulled Xia's sleeve frantically, asking her to turn around: "It's the one wearing the peacock mask!"

Sia looked in the direction she pointed and saw a woman wearing a peacock mask and dressed in luxurious clothes who was teasing a beautiful young attendant and stuffing something into the other's hand.

"She is Mrs. Sevey, who comes from a big family. Before she got married, she was a famous 'social butterfly' in Hayward. Her husband has a very cowardly character. After she gave birth to a daughter, he couldn't control her anymore. He had a lover outside. There are countless of them, and I like the young and beautiful boys the most..."

Mrs. Servi turned back in their direction with feeling, and Alice and Sia quickly retracted their heads, hiding in the shadows and continuing to whisper.

"What is 'lover'?" Sia asked curiously.

"That's it..." Alice looked at the elf who was still a cub in front of her, and struggled to change her explanation: "In addition to her husband, other male friends who have a good relationship. The husband can only leave one, but There can be many such 'friends'."

"Oh..." The elf nodded in understanding and drank the last bit of apple juice in the cup.

“It’s started, it’s started!!”

As the lights suddenly dimmed and exciting music sounded, the largest underground auction in Haigard finally began.

"Good evening, dear gentlemen! Welcome to Oaks Auction!"

"Today's auction items are all rare and good products! Please don't miss it..."

The elf looked at everything in front of her with curiosity. A few small cards were stuffed into Leng Buding's hand. She looked up and saw Felix looking at her with a smile. Then he bent his head and whispered in her ear: " Miss Shia can hold up a sign for whatever she likes."

"But I don't have money." Sia said honestly with her round eyes open.

You have to pay "money" to buy things, but "money" has always been in charge of Li Ao. She is a penniless elf.

Felix was stunned for a moment, probably because he had never heard such a straightforward answer. He covered his face and laughed softly, then touched Sia's golden little head: "It doesn't matter, I can lend it to you."

But everything "borrowed" must be "returned". After thinking about the team's pitiful savings, Shia frowned.

It’s better not to buy it, it’s not easy to make money.

"Next is our first exhibit, an A-grade cloud crystal!" The mustached host lifted the black velvet cloth, which immediately aroused considerable cheers from the audience.

Cloud crystal is the core material for making mechas. Only this medium can enable energy stones to drive huge mechas, and the higher the level of cloud crystals, the better the performance of mechas.

Although there is no longer a war, mechas, as the most powerful weapons of the Galactic Empire, still firmly rule the post-interstellar era.

The empire has been organizing various mecha competitions frequently in recent years. Not only are the prizes generous, they are also an important channel for many orcs to enter the core area.

Of course, playing mecha is also very expensive.

"The starting price is one million star coins."

Shia didn't eat any snacks either.

She stared intently at the palm-sized dark green stone made of velvet.

Wow……
