I'm really a crispy French

"Teacher?" Eldy's green eyes widened. "He told you he was going to dance the fairy dance?"

"No...someone asked him to dance, and now he is dancing."

"..." Eldy's green eyes returned to their long and narrow shape, but his brows were furrowed, and an indescribable expression was written all over his face, "One time the teacher was drunk, and he gave us a fairy dance ..."

"It's so hard to say? Is the natural elf attracted by Maurifio's dancing some kind of indescribable insect? Dung beetle?" Leon didn't think there was anything wrong with Maurifio's dancing posture. He was a knight, but not a bulky muscular man. Han, his figure is very elf, he does not lack the strength and ferocity of a knight in battle, but at the same time he is flexible and flexible. Such a Morifio just stands there, swinging his arms casually, and it is a pleasing dance.

"Is the teacher so scary in your heart?"

"I also think it's scary." Leon touched his chest, "It's fine. So is it a beetle? A cicada? A wasp? Is it a bug problem? Or is Morifeo's dance of elves causing other problems? ?”

"Give up, I won't tell you."

Even if the two of them are so close that they can share each other's secrets, it doesn't mean that the secrets of friends and relatives can also be shared.Leon sighed regretfully, he was the same as Eldy.

So... what's the problem?

"Gods! Why didn't you tell me that your natural elves are these things?!" Fan Sel let out a scream of collapse, and the growth of eyeballs would not make him like this.

Morifio scratched the back of his left hand: "Even if I don't say it, there is always a reason for my refusal to dance. Anyway, your desire to let me dance has been fulfilled."

Morifio scratched his neck with his left hand again.

Yes, the spirits of Maurifio's nature... are mosquitoes, each of which is a female mosquito that needs blood to drink.This kind of natural spirit mosquito is invincible. In short, it is an entity when it sucks blood, but when you hit it, it is a phantom.

In the closed secret room, densely packed mosquitoes buzzed and screamed. Fan Saier screamed and flew around dodging. These mosquitoes were too small for people, but they were too big for him. He was sucked blood, it will take a long time to suffer.Seeing his miserable appearance, Morifio spoke indifferently, but finally moved.

Morifeo stood in front of the little Dream Demon, preventing the mosquitoes from approaching.Seeing him like this, Fan Sel was slightly less angry at him for concealing the situation.

However, when these mosquitoes aimed at a target, and there was an obstacle in front of the target, they turned into illusions again—directly passed through Morifeo's body, and aimed at Fan Saier.

It's over!The word came to Van Sel's mind when he saw the first mosquito that passed through Morifio's back.But he still has to struggle!Van Sael also became unreal, just like he was before entering Leon's dream.

But the mosquito still came after him, and landed on the illusory Fan Sael, who was changing flight routes at high speed.And then...then there is no more.

A tongue protruded from one of Fansel's eyes, and before the mosquito had time to pierce its long, sharp beak into Fansell's skin, it was stuck by the tongue, and then the tongue retracted into the eye.

"I feel...power..." When Fansel realized it, the eyes on his body had already swallowed four or five mosquitoes. He stopped running and hovered in place, watching his tongue actively catch the mosquitoes in surprise.

Morifio looked at Van Sael, he closed his eyes, covered his face, and turned away.It's not that he is willing to make such a pink girly action, it's because the scene is so eye-catching.If he didn't, he'd be screaming even more pink girly.

Leon couldn't see Morifeo for two days, and when he finally saw him on the third day, the pimples on Morifio's face and hands had been pushed off, but his face was still so bright and energetic. sluggish.

"Did Van Sael really just ask you to dance?" Leon looked at Morifio, feeling a little uneasy.

"Yeah, just let me dance."

"You don't look in good condition now." It's like XX is overdone, and it has been two days, with Morifio's battle rank and half-elf's innate physical condition, he is still like this...

Morifeo raised his hand and rubbed Leon's head frantically, and Leon obediently let him rub himself into an afro: "Don't think about it! And even if what happened to me and that doll, with his size, you Think he's going to be a burden to me? I'm like this because things have been so bad lately, that's it! Got it?"

How can he say that he has had nightmares every night for the past two days, and falling asleep is worse than insomnia with his eyes open?

"Understood, I understand!" Leon nodded quickly.

However, the "recent things" that Morifio said was not just used to fool Leon.

"Some nobles also got involved." Morifio let out a breath, "After surviving the evil disaster, wouldn't it be good to continue to live honestly?"

It was indeed the instigation and use of evil religions at first, but the cause was also the low-level poor, especially farmers. Not only did their lives not change after the disaster, they even fell into a greater crisis.I originally thought that this kind of thing could be easily suppressed after consultations between various countries and churches, but... who would have thought that this matter would intensify instead?

"Eight years of disasters, not all countries or churches have a small dilapidated village as a safe backyard for food production."

Morifio glanced at Leon, it was more accurate to say that there was no Leon than there was no small broken village.

The current situation is that the food reserves have been exhausted, the land has been polluted on a large scale, and the nobles who have taken refuge and the nobles who stayed behind are now focusing on fighting for power and profit.

During times of catastrophe, a lot of manpower is required for logistics, or at least it can be used as cannon fodder, so at least it will give the people some food to go on.After the catastrophe, the food-producing churches not only did not stop their aid, but also increased their aid, but all the grain was eaten by the secular rulers.These grains are now used to feed the army and artisans, but there will be no more.

farmer?Worker?They're like rats in the gutter, you think they're all dead, and then the next spring they come out and make a mess of everything.

Therefore, ignoring the poor is actually a kind of deliberate abandonment.

Theocracy, a country with separated political power, basically prohibits the church from giving food to the people.

As for countries where politics and religion are united, it is even more troublesome now. After all, many churches cooperated in the disaster, which shows the powerlessness of their own gods in some aspects.In the past eight years, there were many conflicts in various churches, but they were all suppressed by the high-level in the face of the top priority of survival—or some were not suppressed, but basically those places were destroyed in the disaster.

After the catastrophe passed, the problems that were originally suppressed broke out. These countries are busy "purifying their beliefs", and their domestic problems are even more terrible.

Now it cannot be said that there are no peaceful places on the mainland, but there must not be many, and the small broken village that has become a small broken city must rank high among all the peaceful places.In fact, many people who left regretted it, but the church never mentioned this matter to Leon, so there was no need to waste Leon's time.

The church sent them back and forth because they had received benefits, and of course these benefits were also part of the small broken city, and they were forced to do so.Now that the church doesn't like their benefits, and there is no threat of evil disasters, who cares about them?

Back to the mess.

"We can't control the outside world." Leon spread his hands, "But we will try our best to maintain our own stability. In addition, this year's grain should be harvested, will the church harvest it?"

"Of course!"

"Leon, I finally found you." Leon and Morifio were about to bargain, when Hogan suddenly appeared.

"how?"

"I want to ask, do you want to rent your tentacles?"

"what?"

"Gujiu Gujiu~"

It took Hogan a moment to finally explain the situation.What he wants is not to rent the tentacles, but to have the tentacles clean up the pollution.During the demon disaster, the tree-like tentacles not only insulate the temperature, but also block the pollution of demonization.After the disaster, the polluted land and water sources around Xiaopo City have basically recovered.Although there are still little devils, demonized animals and demonized plants, but they are just sporadic little things, just clear them up slowly.

Every church has some methods handed down from history to purify pollution, but none of them can recover as quickly as the small broken city.

"...So the church would like to ask, besides blocking pollution, is there a way to remove pollution from your tentacles?"

Morifio squinted at Hogan, and said he rented it, which of course confirmed Leon's ability, and asked the other way around?This is definitely taught by the above, but it should be talking about renting, right?Forget it, as long as he is happy.

Leon thought for a while, and said: "Tell me how to rent. The main thing is, how much rent to give."

He was so calm, but honest Hogan was so embarrassed that he couldn't open his mouth.

"It must be calculated according to the area of ​​cleared land, right?" Morifio put an arm on Hogan's shoulder.

"The church only hopes that Leon can secretly help clean up the pollution on the periphery of the three cities. The scope of cleanup does not need to be very wide, only within 150 miles of the city's periphery, and there are also several groundwater sources." Hogan told Morifey Ao's dead arm twitched, "The basic remuneration is Hope City's best treatment for the next [-] years, and I promise Leon three conditions. In addition, Leon and Eldy can also ask for any needs. .”

The scope of the cleanup is indeed not large, and the reward for Leon does not sound like much, but this is the basis, which shows that the Church of the God of Nature has relaxed the conditions, and it seems to be very sincere.

After waiting for a long time, they waited until Leon said: "I don't want to leave Eldi for too long. So, can you turn the cleaning work of the three cities into a three-year task."

"You mean one year between missions?"

"No, what I mean is, it's the end of September now, and I'm going to the first city in early October. After the processing is over, I'll go back to City of Hope. The next departure will be in early October next year."

Both Morifeo and Hogan were a little dazed, and Hogan asked inexplicably: "Are you... finished?" After asking, he suddenly realized something, "No, I didn't make it clear to you. The church please The three cities you helped are all heavily polluted cities. Even if the area that needs to be cleaned up is not large, it cannot be cleaned up in a short period of time."

"If I can't finish it, I won't come back, and if I still can't finish it by October next year, then I won't rest, and I will continue to clean up."

"No, I didn't mean to force you." Hogan was embarrassed, "Don't be angry."

"I'm not angry, I'm serious."

"It was impossible for you to work all the time. After the middle is finished, you can come back and rest for half a year every time. Moreover, we provide free teleportation arrays, and Eldi can visit you every month."

"make a deal."

Seeing Leon nodding, Hogan and Morifio also nodded subconsciously, and suddenly they shook their heads in unison.

Morifio: "What is a deal?! The deal is about to be done before the conditions are met?"

Hogan: "Leon, the relationship with each other can last longer, and you can't develop the habit of the church asking you arbitrarily."

After educating Leon for a long time, the two dragged Leon to the church and called Eldi.

Eldy was nervous before he came because Morifio called him urgently, but he didn't say what it was.After coming here, after listening to their explanation, I realized that this matter is not a good thing for him and Leon personally, but it is a good thing for Hope City.

In fact, most officials should be convened to discuss this matter. After all, this is a great opportunity to pluck the church's wool. There will be no such good opportunities in the future, but what should be concealed about Leon's situation is better to continue to conceal.

As a result, Leon sat on the edge and dragged a tentacle to tie a Chinese knot. Each of Hogan, Morifio and Eldy took out a notebook and listed in detail the development needs of the small broken city. And what the Church of the God of Nature has—it is, but it cannot be taken out.

"I really want a cathedral." Eldy said greedily, looking at his notebook.

"I can give you what you want, but the Cathedral of the God of Nature will not be built alone. If you want to build it, at least the God of Flowers and Trees, God of Thunder, and God of Rain must also build churches." Hogan explained.

The God of Thunder and the God of Rain are both gods of agriculture in this world. The God of Thunder is the forerunner of the God of Rain, and the God of Rain is the foundation of a good harvest.It is all the more evident from this that the God of Nature is a philanthropic deity.

"Is there no God of Light?" Leon threw the tentacles that were tied into a mess out of the window, just on the head of Dandan who was lying outside and dozing outside. Dandan looked at the mess, showing the obsessive eyes of a cat.

"Of course not. Although the believers of the God of Light seem a bit like that." Morifio made a gesture that Leon didn't understand, but it must have no meaning, "But the God of Light is indeed ranked higher than the God of Nature So many righteous gods, how could they hold a group together with us?"

"Oh..." Leon replied dryly, "But there is still a problem. Since there is no way to resume the cathedral, why did you include the giant green emerald tree?"

The giant green emerald tree is not a tree, but a vine, an extremely huge vine.The descriptions of it in the books that Leon came into contact with were all the same - Ferruga, the holy city of the God of Nature, seemed to be built on an emerald mountain, but it was not emerald but crisp and translucent grape leaves.

Its size is comparable to the tree of life of the elves, and its preciousness is also comparable.

"Of course what we want can't be the main body, as long as a small vine is enough." Morifeo compared it to a foot long, but it seemed too short for him, so he made it a little longer, about a foot and a half Bar?

"That's equivalent to a divine body, right? Can you have a divine body without building a cathedral? What's the use of having a divine body?" Eldi pointed between Morifeo's empty hands.

"Of course you can have it." Hogan became excited, "There are various ways to stimulate and use the divine body. The branches and leaves of the giant green emerald tree are the simplest function for normal people to carry around, so they are not easy to get sick. They have the ability The body will become stronger and stronger, and better results can be obtained during exercise. In fact, the vine armor of the cycle knight is made of the vines of the giant green emerald tree... and ordinary vines after grafting."

Morifio was startled, but when the panting Hogan finished the second half of the sentence, he retracted again: "I thought I had some new equipment recently." He muttered, and then became angry again Get up, "It's not just grafted, it's also a vine that has been multiplied for several generations. The divinity has been quite reduced. Now there are more and more waste in the church. It has been hundreds of years, and new vines can no longer be grafted."

"Okay, let's send what you wrote down..." Leon looked at the thick book that the three had researched, and felt that if the upper echelons of the Church of the God of Nature saw this thing, they probably wouldn't Willing to invite him.

As a result... On October [-]th, the Church of the God of Nature's final reply came—it seems that Morifio and Hogan have been haggling with the Church for the past few days.

"This is your salary." Morifio brought over a thick checklist.

"I always feel that it is thicker than what you discussed that day. Is it the paper quality or the font is different?" Leon flipped through it, and the whole book was full of small characters, which were only one and a half sizes larger than the font of the newspaper. Feo's wanton handwriting is much denser.

"Of course not. Three of us wrote three books each that day. There may be some repetitions, so after deletions and additions, this is the current book. Now the first batch of materials is being unloaded at the teleportation plaza."

"Then when can I leave?"

"Over there means as soon as possible. The person who came to pick you up has already arrived, and he is also an acquaintance." Morifio led Leon out, and he met an acquaintance.

"Hello, Lord Leon. I'm here to pick you up." This is the heavy-flavored wolf cycle knight, Feinon.He looked fine, except for a dark red scar on his face.

"I'm glad to see that you're safe and sound." Leon and Finon hugged each other, patting each other's backs, "Are we leaving now?"

"The meaning of the church... and myself, I hope it can be done as soon as possible." Finon said, feeling that people in the Church of the God of Nature are rarely polite.

Especially people like Morifio and Hogan who are not polite to their own people...

"Okay, I'm going to say goodbye to Eldi." In addition, Leon is also worried that if he goes too far, his tentacles will lose control. It's fine if they wither directly. .

From the day he learned about the church's entrustment, Leon has been gathering his elements, and has entered the underground world one after another, and Leon is firmly sealing the entrances and exits.If the tentacles are unconscious, they will not come to the surface until they completely control the underground world.

But he still kept a small one, only a small one, which shouldn't cause a big problem.Even if something goes wrong, he can come back in time.

"Be careful." When saying goodbye, looking at the other party, Eldy couldn't think of other words.

"I will." Leon smiled and kissed Eldi on the cheek, waved his hand and left.

Eldie touched his face and sighed.He also thought about whether he was too paranoid, or too ignorant?But... When he was a child, he could accept and feel very happy about things, but when he grew up, he understood a lot.

——Does Leon really love him?

Kiss, carefully prepared food, hugs in the cold, and those tender words, Leon did not treat him like that because of liking or admiration.He did it because "if we like each other, then I should do it."Leon has been trying to find a way to satisfy him during this time...but their problem is not how to do it, but their relationship.

"Wow~" Eggy came over and rubbed against Eldy with his big head, and Eldy also hugged Eggy.

Eggy is a ferocious beast, the hair on her body is thick and hard, even if she deliberately restrains herself when facing her master, it still feels prickly, but Eldi can also protect her skin with fighting spirit, which makes her whole face The feeling of being buried in thick fur is so relaxing.

After taking two big mouthfuls of the manticore, Eldy decides to... not keep his distance from Leon anymore.If Leon can't fall in love with him now, then he won't fall in love with him.If he continues to refuse like this, what if Leon goes to find someone else?They still have decades to go. If he works hard to continue to raise the rank of warrior, he can have more than 100 years, and even imagine that there may be hundreds of years of time together. In the long years, even if there is no love, there will be There is a stronger family relationship that binds them together tightly.

Leon didn't expect that his first stop would be Ferruga, the God of Nature, the city on the emerald.

He couldn't see the green jade now, not only because he was standing on it, but also because most of the green jade had withered.The crisp green leaves turned yellow, tan, and even black.The tangled vines beneath the leaves, which should have been thick and sturdy, were now covered with rotting patches.
