Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 11 Great Elf

"Of course, I like a lively atmosphere and don't like long periods of silence."

Noah gave a plausible reason.

"I see. Then I can recruit more companions for you. However, if there are too many of them, they might become a little noisy."

Shivreya hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"This is exactly what I want. If you perform well, I will allow you to enter the dragon's nest and clean it for me."

"Thank you for your gift!"

After hearing the promise made by Noah, Sifrea felt a little dizzy.

She had never imagined that even these weak flower and plant elves like them would one day have the opportunity to enter the dragon's nest and serve a noble pure-blooded golden dragon.

No matter what kind of creature it is, as long as there is a certain base number, then above this number, better individuals will definitely be born.

This is true for both humans and the low-level monsters that can be found everywhere in the wilderness, such as goblins, gnolls, and lizard men.

Even these little elves in front of us are no exception. They are indeed weak, but no matter which little flower elf they are, they have the potential to evolve.

However, there are shortcuts in the evolution of lower organisms.

If a weak creature encounters a being at a higher level of life, after making sure that the other party has no desire to kill or devour, most of them will have the urge to worship, surrender, or even follow.

The most typical case is that once the kobolds and lizardmen with sparse dragon veins encounter a pure-blooded dragon, as long as the dragon is willing to accept them, the entire clan will basically surrender and submit.

The reason is not that these monster clans with dragon veins have any bad nature and like to be slaves to more powerful creatures, but the temptation and attraction of life sublimation and bloodline evolution.

In the biological lineage of the same species and origin, the superior species naturally has a strong and irresistible attraction and temptation to the inferior species.

Because the probability of evolution for lower-level creatures following higher-level creatures will be greatly increased, and they will obtain bloodline advancement that they may not be able to achieve even if they risk their lives.

Who can resist such temptation?
Of course, even if they are not homologous lineages, similar changes can be triggered, but the affected lower-level organisms may be contaminated with some biological characteristics of the higher-level species.

You could call it pollution, but it's also evolution!

"You are quite brave. From today on, you will be responsible for managing the garden for me. You can recruit your companions as assistants and build your own village here."

"I will definitely take good care of them."

"Do a good job. I have high hopes for you."

Since it was a free pie, Noah just opened his mouth and asked for it.

"When you evolve into a great elf, I promise that you can become my butler."

"Big elf?"

Sifrea was stunned for a moment, and then her delicate little face suddenly became excited. This was something she had never thought of before, but looking at the golden dragon in front of her, unprecedented ambition and desire surged up.

"I will definitely not let you down!"

Seeing them rush into the flower garden with full energy and vitality and start commanding their kind, Noah couldn't help but ponder. For pharmacists, flower and grass elves are the best laborers, because they can always take good care of the herbs that contain special magic, and even contain more medicinal power.

Noah had no intention of studying pharmacy for the time being, let alone becoming an alchemist.

He was just thinking, if these elves were really so weak that he couldn't get any feedback from the golden tree, then could he let them create economic value for himself.

For example, this flower garden, which was only used for viewing, could be transformed into a medicinal field for growing magic potions, and then harvested regularly and sold to the outside world.

However, there is another problem in selling potions, that is, who should they sell to? You have to know that in the border areas ruled by the Augustus family, there is almost no commercial activity. Except for some fearless wandering merchants occasionally, there are basically no decent caravans coming here.

"What a bunch of reckless people, they don't even know how to take care of the economy. If you have money, people will come to you naturally."

Noah suppressed the thought that just popped up in his mind. At present, he could not expect to make money by selling potions, but he could ask these elves to collect some special herbs.

Under the temptation of the big pie drawn by Noah, the energetic blue butterfly elf Sifrea naturally established an elf village with more than a hundred members and sat on the throne of the village chief.

This number surprised Noah. He didn't expect that there would be so many flower and plant elves around his dragon nest.

These exquisite, small and inconspicuous elves are indeed very consistent with the aesthetic taste of humanoid creatures. As for the aesthetic taste of dragons, it goes without saying that dragons can appreciate all kinds of creatures.

That is, when the village was built, during another deep sleep, Noah finally saw the feedback from the elves on the golden tree.

Above the tiny roots, on the waves caused by them, a delicate and small village built on flower buds and grass stalks quietly emerged, and then a wisp of almost invisible purple air emerged.

The purple air went straight up along the roots, forming a small flower bud on the trunk of the golden tree, and then nothing happened.

Noah stared at the small flower bud for a long time, but did not see any sign of further growth.

"Sure enough, it's because I'm too weak!"

The good news is that the elves have accumulated a large enough number to give feedback to the golden tree. The bad news is that he will not be able to eat this fruit in the foreseeable future.

"Are we going to train them into great elves?"

Noah himself couldn't help but mutter.

Wood elves are relatively common fey creatures in the wilderness. They are difficult to encounter for most humanoid races because of their timidity and caution.

As for the great elves, they are truly rare spirit creatures. Even among ten thousand small elves, not necessarily one can evolve into a great elf.

However, that was under natural conditions. He didn't know to what extent the probability of evolution would increase if he was close to a golden dragon, a superior species of dragon.

Because after searching through all the inherited memories, Noah did not find anyone like him who would take a small elf as a follower. Even a big elf was useless in the eyes of the golden dragon.

The most common followers of the golden dragon are cloud giants and storm giants, which are superior races among the giants, but he doesn't need to think about them.

Noah would have to at least become an adult golden dragon before he would be qualified to seek out a cloud giant to work for him.

In most cases, no one would follow a being weaker than themselves, even if his bloodline was more noble.
