Eve was also confused by the sudden knock on the door. She had no idea who would come to see them.

After all, they are a group of people living abroad now, and it is impossible for them to have any acquaintances locally.

Judging from the time, it doesn't seem like it was done by the hotel staff. After all, according to the moon elves' schedule, it's still close to the time they get up, so it can't be a breakfast notification.

At this time, Istina and Melchis had not yet gotten up and were sleeping soundly in bed. Only Eve was sitting between the two of them, holding a pen and paper, planning her itinerary.

"Well, let's go and take a look."

She waited on the bed for a while. Although the knocks on the door were still so light, there was no sign of stopping. Eve had no choice but to go and see who was at the door.

"Hey~"

Eve tiptoed under the bed so as not to wake others, then carefully moved to the door and opened it.

"what!"

The elf standing outside was obviously startled when he saw the door in front of him suddenly open.

Um, you were the one knocking on the door just now, so why did the person inside get scared when he came to open the door?

After complaining in her heart and seeing that the other party still didn't respond, Eve had no choice but to take the initiative to ask the other party's purpose.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

"Ah! Um, um, are you the vampire princess, Her Highness Eve Lesombra?"

"Eh?"

After hearing the other party reveal her identity, Eve became more serious. The lazy aura on her body disappeared instantly, and her expression became much more serious.

"Yes, I am Eve. Is there anything the elves can help me with?"

"Yes Yes!"

However, the elf in front of him was obviously frightened by Eve's sudden serious look, and he began to stutter and even tremble when speaking.

Seeing this, Eve could only sigh helplessly and restrain her momentum.

"Okay, don't be so nervous. So what do you want to see me about?"

"Your Highness! I'm Ashley! Lady Melfirin asked me to deliver a letter to you!"

As he spoke, Ashley took out an exquisite envelope sealed with wax and handed it to Eve. In addition to the wax seal, the envelope was also enchanted with magic to verify whether it was the first time it was opened.

"This is?"

When he opened the envelope, he saw a piece of letter, several permission forms, and a map of the Moon Elf territory. Three areas on the map were specially marked.

In addition to some basic polite words, the letter mainly asked Eve and others whether they were interested in collecting several things, including Moonlight Fish, Thousand Star Stone, and Moonlight Dew.

Hmm, I haven’t heard of any of them. What are these things?

"Hmm...what are these materials used for?"

"These are all things that will be used in the festival in a few months. The place where these things are produced is usually off-limits. Actually, Lady Melfirin wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone go there for a tour."

Ashley seemed to be worried that Eve would be dissatisfied with letting them collect materials, so when Eve asked, he hurried to explain.

"Is that so? Well, thank her for her kindness. We'll go there later. Just take the permission slip with us, right?"

"Yes, yes! Ugh!"

With a slightly out-of-tune response, Ashley suddenly showed an expression of pain, but he held back the tears with his eyes.

Ah, I must have bitten my tongue out of nervousness.

Shaking her head helplessly, Eve felt that it would be better to get rid of the other person as soon as possible. She felt that if she stayed in front of her for a while longer, she would probably faint.

"Is there anything else?"

“No, no more!”

"Then Ashley, please go back first. The others haven't gotten up yet. We'll go check on them later."

"Yes!"

With that, Eve closed the door and went back into the room, but Ashley did not leave immediately. Instead, he leaned against the wall and gasped.

“Huh…Huh…Huh, I’m so scared…”

"Wow, why did Lady Melfirin suddenly ask me to deliver a letter to a princess of a country..."

"Ugh...my tongue hurts."

"Same for Her Highness Eve. She was nothing at first, but as soon as her identity was revealed, she immediately became serious. She was even more oppressive than Lady Melfilin. Is this the princess of the vampire clan? She really has an aura."

"And I didn't behave too rudely just now, did I?"

After breathing in and out for a while, Ashley finally stood up and patted his cheeks gently.

"Good! The letter has been delivered. It's time to go back and report."

As she said this, she left the hotel where Eve and her group were staying and walked towards the city management office.

On the other side, Eve in the house tiptoed back to the bed and began to adjust her itinerary according to the map in the envelope.

From the map, we can see that these three locations are lakes, canyons and forests, and they are located in places where you can visit them when you visit the territory of the moon elves.

Eve is quite interested in this secret place that is usually off-limits to outsiders.

She had never heard of the materials they were commissioned to collect, and she thought they were probably more like ritual items rather than things with practical effects.

Moonlight Fish, Thousand Star Stone, and Moonlight Dew, the names suggest that they are items related to the star and moon customs of the Moon Elves.

The last two were fine, but could that moonlight fish be a real fish? She couldn't fish, so asking her to go fishing wouldn't be a good idea.

However, I do know a lot of jokes about anglers, including but not limited to setting up the nest by hand and never coming up empty-handed.

Well, forget it. Don’t think about it anymore. Things will work out when the time comes.

"Hmm...brave...sir..."

Suddenly, Istina beside her started talking vaguely in her sleep. I don’t know if she dreamed of something good, but she suddenly started talking about Eve, and kept trying to stretch out her hands and stroke the air, trying to hug something.

"Ugh."

Shaking her head lovingly, Eve put the notebook aside, slid down into the quilt, and put her arm into Istina's arms.

"I'm here~"

“Hmm…”

Finally, Istina felt something and hugged Eve's slender arms. She then put her cheek close to hers and rubbed it gently for a few times before she fell asleep again.

"Huhu, what a wonderful dream I had."

Looking at Istina's cute appearance, Eve gently closed her eyes and began to doze off.

Anyway, the itinerary planning has been almost completed, and it’s not far from time for everyone to get up, so let her have a short rest.

§147 Yuequan Mountain [Fourth Update]

A few days later, in the Elf Forest, near Moon Spring Mountain.

"Eve, how far is it?"

Melchis, who was walking in front in the forest, suddenly shouted to the people behind her.

"That's the mountain ahead."

"Okay~~"

After answering, Shizu continued humming an unknown tune and walked in front to lead the way for everyone.

Well, letting someone who doesn't know the destination lead the way always seems problematic in many ways.

It had been a while since Eve received the invitation letter from Melfilin. Since they were closest to Yuequan Mountain, where the moonlight fish was produced, they went here first.

On the way here, Eve also inquired about things about this place. According to the elves, the area where Moon Spring Mountain is located is the source of several rivers.

In order to protect the water source, people are usually prohibited from entering the area around Yuequan Mountain, and there is even a no-fly spell in the air. This is why Eve and her friends are now walking in the forest.

There is a lake on the top of Yuequan Mountain. It disappears when the sun rises and appears when the moon rises. The shape of the lake also changes with the phases of the moon. It is quite magical, so it is named Jingyue Lake.

The moonlight fish, one of the three materials mentioned in the letter, comes from this Mirror Moon Lake, but it is not food, but a ritual item.

Although it is called moonlight fish and can be obtained through fishing, the essence of this thing is a strange energy ball born from the long-term absorption of moonlight. After being caught, it will turn into a piece of crystal jade, so there is no need to worry about preservation.

However, in order to ensure the purity of the moonlight fish, special fishing gear needs to be used when fishing, and it is strictly forbidden to use any magic or mental detection assistance, otherwise it will damage the quality. In serious cases, the moonlight fish will even disappear directly.

Very good, Eve seemed to have seen the miserable situation of the few of them who were about to be killed by the air force.

Since Mirror Moon Lake disappears during the day, the only time they can actually fish is at night. Moreover, the moonlight fish will not appear immediately after Mirror Moon Lake appears. Basically, they can only be caught in the few hours of the night and will disappear again near dawn.

Well, now there's another time-limited buff, like a built-in fishing mini-game challenge! And maybe a weather-limited one! Shouldn't there be a size limit too?

In this way, the group walked in the forest for a while and finally found the tree house outside the blockade line.

The blockade in the Elf Forest is similar to the walls surrounding a town, both of which are high walls made of trees and vines.

"You guys over there! The area ahead is off-limits!"

Coincidentally, they also happened to meet the garrisoned elves who were returning from patrol.

I saw a few people walking around in front of the tree house. They were obviously

“We have obtained permission.”

As she spoke, Eve took out the letter of permission signed by Melfilin and handed it to the other party.

"Eh? Ah! Sorry, I overreacted just now. Please forgive me."

"It's okay. After all, this place is very special to you. I can understand it."

"Yes, yes! Yuequan Mountain is like a second mother to me, but sometimes people still try to sneak in, which is really annoying..."

As a result, Eve's casual remark unexpectedly opened the other party's mouth, and a lot of complaints followed, making Eve only able to laugh dryly and unable to get a word in.

Finally, her companion couldn't stand it anymore and reached out to pull her, thus interrupting her incessant complaints.

"S-Sorry, I tend to lose control when I talk about this. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"It's okay, it's okay. Is there anything else we need to do before we go into the mountains?"

Smiling and waving her hand, Eve then asked about the procedure for entering the mountain.

According to the elves nearby, some rituals are required to enter Moon Spring Mountain, but they don't know the details, so they can only ask the garrison personnel.

"Ah, yes, please follow us."

With that, Eve and her group were brought into the tree house and officially entered the area of ​​Yuequan Mountain.

"Please wait a moment, everyone. We'll go to the back to put the equipment away."

"Ah."

After saying that, the elves went into the back room together, leaving only Eve and her group in the front hall.

"Hmm... nothing interesting."

After walking around the front hall, Eve sat down on a chair nearby with some boredom.

The entire front hall was plain and simple. There weren't even any decorations on the walls, just a painting hanging there. It looked like it was a painting of Jingyue Lake on a full moon night.

"So what do you think will happen, brave hero?"

"Like, is there any introduction about this place?"

"How could that be possible? This isn't a tourist attraction or anything."

After hearing Eve's idea, Istina smiled helplessly. What was the brave man thinking? How could there be an introduction hanging in the house for a place that basically does not allow people to come?

"Well, that's true."

At this time, the voice of the garrisoned elves was also heard from inside the house.

"Dear guests, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I'm Tracy and I'll be leading you into the mountain. Please take this and follow me."

As she spoke, Tracy handed each of Eve and her group a moon-white robe, which seemed quite thick to the touch. Then she walked to an inconspicuous small door, opened it and walked out.

"Let's go."
