Chapter 565 The Patrol Team's Encounter
"So they were elves born outside."

The entire elf team suddenly realized what was happening.

Celia noticed a hint of disdain in the eyes of several people.

A thought flashed through her mind, and she immediately understood what the other person was thinking.

"So elves born outside are discriminated against?" Celia thought to herself.

Ross said, "Discrimination exists everywhere, that's normal."

Celia nodded without saying anything.

The leading female elf did not show any discriminatory attitude. She looked Celia up and down and frowned, saying, "Why are you only coming to the Elf Forest now? Generally speaking, people are sent to the Elf Forest for a blessing ceremony after birth. Why wait until adulthood to do it?"

Celia casually said, "My parents are a bit special. They didn't want to stay in the Elf Forest, so they waited for me to grow up and let me come here by myself, so that I could complete the blessing of birth and the blessing of adulthood."

Such things are rare, but they do happen.

Elena once told Celia that some peculiar elves would only return to the Elf Forest after reaching adulthood, so that the Elf Elders could bestow their blessings upon them.

In addition, there are some elves who never enter the Elf Forest and stay outside all year round.

For example, Elena is one.

She spends most of her time playing outside and rarely goes into the Fairy Forest.

Elena didn't say why.

"So that's how it is. Your parents are really irresponsible. Don't they know that only by receiving the blessing of the Elf Forest can they better cultivate natural magic?"

Celia raised her hand, and a cloud of ice mist appeared in her palm. "I have a rare affinity for ice, which is probably why my parents wouldn't let me come to the Elf Forest."

The female elf suddenly realized, "I see, that explains it. Since we've encountered you, why don't we take you to the royal city?"

Before Celia could say anything after the female elf's warm invitation, another female elf couldn't help but say, "Lana, our mission is to patrol the Elf Forest, and we have no obligation to help elves without blessings."

The female elf known as Lana glanced back at her and said, "Is an elf who hasn't received a blessing not an elf?"

"Yes, but our mission is to patrol. Sending her to the capital would be dereliction of duty."

"This one……"

“Miss Lana, thank you for your kindness, but I’ll go by myself,” Celia said.

Lana had no choice but to nod upon hearing this: "Alright then, but you'll likely encounter other patrol teams while you're traveling through the Elf Forest. Here's what I'll do: I'll give you a Forest Leaf, which carries my scent. If you keep it with you, the other patrol teams shouldn't give you any trouble."

Celia glanced at Lana with some surprise.

Wow, there are such kind-hearted elves among the elves!

Finally, a familiar elf has appeared.

If she doesn't show up soon, Celia will think all elves are scoundrels.

Celia thanked her without hesitation and then carefully put away Lana's Forest Leaf.

After saying goodbye, Celia continued on her way.

Among the group, the female elf who had spoken earlier couldn't help but say, "Lana, we can't just give the Leaf of the Forest to anyone. What if she's a dark elf? What if she's a human or orc in disguise?"

A male elf chimed in, "Yes, we are the Elf Forest patrol team. We must prepare for the worst in any situation. We should report her situation to the higher-ups and let them decide, instead of giving her the Forest Leaf and letting her roam freely in the Elf Forest."

Lana said, "She's not a dark elf. I can sense that she has a scent that makes me feel very comfortable."

"A pleasant taste?"

"Well, I don't know the specifics, but I don't think she's a bad person."

Before anyone else could say anything, Lana raised her hand and said, "Alright, let's continue our patrol. I'll write a report about this and submit it later. If anything happens, the responsibility will be mine, so don't worry."

After Lana said that, the others exchanged glances and stopped worrying about it, continuing their patrol.

Meanwhile, after parting ways with Lana and her group, Celia continued on her way.

Along the way, they encountered several patrolling elf squads.

Because of Lana's Forest Leaf, after sensing it, they didn't show themselves and simply let Celia leave.

If it weren't for Celia constantly using Mage's Hand, several teams wouldn't have even noticed.

The girl couldn't help but exclaim, "The Elf Forest has so many defenses! We encounter patrol teams all the time, although the highest level of these patrol teams is only around level three."

Ross's phantom remained beside Celia.

He looked at the surrounding forest, feeling the vibrant natural elements, and a look of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.

“The Elf Forest a thousand years ago was much bigger than it is now, and there were no patrols back then.”

Celia asked curiously, "Aren't there any patrols?"

Ross nodded: "Yes, patrolling is pointless. The Elf Forest has powerful self-healing and perception abilities. Even if some villains try to cause trouble in there, the Elf Forest will quickly send a message to the Watchtower, so that the elves inside can come over."

"The Tower of Watchers?"

"You can use them as sentry towers, scattered around the Elf Forest, with one at regular intervals."

"We don't think we've seen anything like this along the way."

"Perhaps after the Age of Calamity, the Elven race will abandon the Watchtower sentry system," Ross said, not paying much attention.

After a moment's thought, Celia murmured to herself, "I have a feeling that the elves' frequent patrols aren't just for show..."

As she spoke, Celia suddenly woke up and quickly shook her head.

"Forget it, who cares? It has nothing to do with me."

After entering the elven territory, Celia made up her mind that no matter what happened to the elves, she would not interfere.

In any case, elves are different from humans.

Back in the Blue Dragon Empire, Celia was 'house arrest' for a period of time because of her interference, and was later expelled from Dragon Island.

Interfering in other people's affairs on their own turf is a thankless and exhausting task.

"Although I am an elf now, I am just an 'ordinary' third-tier elf. With so many elves patrolling, even if something big happens, it has nothing to do with me!"

Celia muttered to herself, quickly letting go of her burdens and becoming cheerful.

The girl hummed a song as she slowly made her way towards her target area.

Unfortunately, her pleasure did not last long.

As she gradually approached the area given by Ross, a faint fluctuation of pollution entered the perception of her mage hand.

Celia stopped and looked ahead.

"No way... wait, it seems pretty normal too."

This is the area where Ross said the other half of the Death Element Puppet Heart is located.

In other words, it may be the territory of the Twilight Cult.

It's not surprising that the territory of the Twilight Cult is polluted by demonic energy.

"I didn't expect to be so lucky; I ran into them as soon as I got close."

The girl smiled.
