Chapter 647 Your reputation is known to everyone from Galar to Donghuang.
Xia Chen's elves were sizing up King Lei Guan, who was also observing them with a critical eye.
Again, although the power is no longer what it used to be, King Lei Guan's wisdom and vision have not weakened at all.
As a legendary elf, and a rather high-level legendary elf, he can tell the strength level of most elves at a glance.
The demon fox that can only transform into the appearance of other elves is at most 0.1 of its original self, and the big flaming moth with its whole body on fire can barely reach 0.2.
As for the noodle-like alien and the red-skinned lizard... they are so powerful that Lei Guanwang is not qualified to evaluate them, even at their peak.
You must know that King Leiguan is never strong as an individual, but when he is bonded with his beloved horse.
In terms of combat prowess alone, not to mention the outstanding bosses like Guluton and Deoxys, who are considered outstanding among the legendary elves, it would be difficult for King Lei Guan to fight against a Flame Bird alone.
But then again, it is not unusual to have the strength of the Flame Bird, but King Lei Guan's ability to make all things grow is unique.
Creation is always a more shocking force than destruction.
It's a pity that now I have even lost the power to create.
King Lei Guan thought this in a dazed way.
After seeing the elves like Xia Chen, it became more and more curious about this human who suddenly appeared in front of it.
Although he has been staying in an inaccessible place like the Crown Snowfield all year round, King Lei Guan also knows that these elves can stand at the top anywhere.
As their trainer, Xia Chen must also be a legend among humans.
Why did he come to find me?
Before this question could be answered, Lei Guanwang was suddenly attracted by a strange fragrance.
It was a wonderful experience that I had never experienced before. Among the five senses, except for the sense of smell, all other senses seemed to be blocked. Lei Guanwang closed her eyes unconsciously and savored the scent of meat mixed with it.
, spices and more complex aromas that cannot be judged.
Gu~
Lei Guanwang swallowed her saliva again unconsciously. Her voice was not loud, but it was extremely loud in the quiet environment.
It opened its eyes with some embarrassment and secretly looked at the Vulcan Moths. It thought they would look at it strangely or teasingly, but the eyes it imagined were not at all.
On the contrary, Vulcan Moth said very gently: "Kona~ (You must be very hungry, wait a moment, you will be ready to eat soon~)"
This actually makes some Lei Guanwang feel depressed, what the hell is the attitude of "I don't blame you for not seeing the world"!
For a proud elf like King Lei Guan, sympathy is a more difficult emotion to accept than ridicule.
Although it appears as a benevolent figure in legends, King Lei Guan is not a legendary elf with a "Mother" character.
In fact, this is easy to understand. Kindness, fraternity, or the various behaviors of "God loves the world" are all based on one premise - this is me, as a strong person, helping and giving to vulnerable groups like you.
.
Just like the rich people among humans who are keen on charity, aside from showing off, most of their inner drives are like this.
Sympathy is a power reserved only for the strong.
King Lei Guan can accept the offense and attack of those mahuola, can endure the abandonment and forgetfulness of believers, and can even survive the cold and loneliness of these thousands of years.
But the only thing he couldn't accept was sympathy from other elves, even if it was pure kindness.
But the Vulcan Moth's eyes were so warm and peaceful that even if it stung King Lei Guan's self-esteem, it could not produce any negative emotions such as anger or displeasure.
It knows that the current Vulcan Moth is no different from the one who saved the humans and elves on the Crown Plateau.
But, I don't accept it!
Therefore, King Lei Guan made a silent decision and would eat the tree fruits offered by the believers.
As for the food cooked by humans?
Even if I, King Lei Guan, jump off the Snowy Fields of the Crown, I will never take a bite!
…………
"How about this, isn't this Scallion Stir-fried Slow Beast Tail good? The green onions are from the top-quality Galar Green Onion Duck. They are slightly sweet, crisp, tender and delicious. It's a waste of money to use this kind of peerless green onions as weapons.
ah..."
When Lei Guanwang listened to Xia Chen's rambling introduction, she felt that the rice in her mouth tasted even more delicious.
But, why is it that I, who vowed not to take a bite of food, am now feasting on it?
Lei Guanwang, whose taste buds have been satisfied like never before, has no intention of thinking about this problem. Now he only wants to say two words, it tastes so good!
What kind of dignity as a king, what kind of privileges do the strong have, are they comparable to the food made by this human being?
"I have decided that you will not only be the future generalissimo of the kingdom, but also the chief cook of my palace!"
With a long way to go to restore the country, King Lei Guan has given his only subordinate an official position.
Even this subordinate is not recognized by me, but King Lei Guan thinks it is.
Xia Chen nodded indifferently, his mood was similar to that of playing house with his friends when he was a child.
He took advantage of the situation and asked: "Your Majesty King Lei Guan, our road to national restoration is a bit bumpy. Do you have any plans?"
Lei Guanwang suddenly froze, even taking a big mouthful of food.
After pondering for several seconds, it hesitated and replied: "Well...of course I have a plan, but the time is not yet ripe, so I can't tell you."
When Xia Chen heard this tone, he knew that it had a poor plan. Please tell me why your power has been lost so seriously!
It seemed that he couldn't find anything to say to this old monarch with a strong self-esteem after all the twists and turns. Xia Chen thought about it and decided to attack directly.
He asked the fundamental question: "So, how do you restore your power? Do you know?"
As soon as this question came out of his mouth, King Lei Guan suddenly felt like a cat being grabbed by the scruff of the neck, and the whole elf became wilted.
It whispered: "Well... I'd better talk to you about the plan."
Xia Chen did not reply directly, but suddenly changed the topic: "In my hometown of Donghuang, there is an elf named Duduli. It has three heads, and each head has different thoughts, so it often
They will quarrel over an inexplicable thing, such as where to go or even what to eat, so if they can't distinguish the main body, they can hardly do anything."
King Lei Guan was a very intelligent legendary elf. It looked at Xia Chen thoughtfully, seeming to understand what he meant.
Xia Chen paused, then suddenly changed the topic and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty King Lei Guan, if you don't want to believe me, I can't help you."
…………
Incomplete trust means complete distrust.
King Lei Guan understands this truth, but is this human named Xia Chen trustworthy?
Think about it from another angle, does he have any reason to harm himself?
If you want to subdue yourself like an ordinary trainer, it seems that you don’t need to talk so much, just knock him out and subdue him.
If he has any appeal for the strength he had at his peak, then he must first help himself regain his strength.
No matter how you look at it, you will never lose money.
King Lei Guan was silent for a long time, and finally asked: "Human, I want to know, what do you want after you have worked so hard to help me?"
At this point in the conversation, it was a "confession" situation for both parties. Xia Chen no longer concealed his purpose, nodded and said: "You guessed it right, I have plans for your power that can make all things grow."
King Lei Guan was not surprised by this result. Rather, it was the reason that was least unexpected.
Nothing in this world is good without reason. If Xia Chen said something like "There is no special reason, I just want to help you", it would feel uneasy or even afraid.
Everyone wants something, and it can accept this reason.
Seeing that King Lei Guan did not reply immediately, Xia Chen continued: "In addition, I also need you to help me fight a battle after regaining my strength, a battle that may be life-threatening."
The battle he was talking about was naturally the battle to go to the ultimate world to resist the dark matter.
That's right, since meeting King Lei Guan, Xia Chen has been thinking about how to trick this guy into boarding his ship.
The pressure from the dark matter was too great. He, Sirona Cattleya and the others were really unsure.
As for those legendary elves he knew, Xia Chen didn't have enough reasons to take them to the ultimate world full of dangers.
King Lei Guan is different, this is a pure transaction - I help you regain your strength, and you fight for me once.
Fair enough, isn't it?
"I agreed."
King Lei Guan said.
…………
One person and one elf reached a consensus, but Vulcan Moth, who had been eating melon for a long time, was a little confused.
What the hell? Is this guy really powerful enough for Xia Chen to value him? He also has the ability to make all things grow?
Could it be that the arrogant words it said about the "King of Galar" earlier were true?
Vulcan Moth suddenly felt that the world view had collapsed. It was true that elves had no appearance...
"Then, tell me the reason why you lost your power, Your Majesty King Lei Guan."
Over there, the conversation between Xia Chen and Lei Guanwang has entered the next stage.
King Lei Guan was no longer as vigilant and resistant as it was at the beginning. After recalling it for a moment, it slowly said: "Thousands of years ago, a powerful elf came to Galar, named Wuji Dina, and it brought a The disaster is called [Dark Night].”
It’s Wujitina again, and it’s dark night again!
Xia Chen was a little frightened, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was a reasonable thing. The person who could make the legendary elves lose their power must not be ordinary people.
He did not interrupt Lei Guanwang's story and listened quietly.
"The disaster started in North Galar and continued to spread southward. It was only a matter of time before it affected the Crown Plateau. I couldn't sit back and ignore it, so I took action. Together with two guys holding swords and holding shields, The disaster was solved, but I was also injured."
King Lei Guan's tone was very calm and her words were very concise, but these few words concealed the bloodshed of a cruel war.
But why can Cang Xiang and Zangmarante become heroes of Galar and have been praised by people for thousands of years, but no one mentions King Lei Guan?
Xia Chen knew that something must have happened.
He couldn't help but ask: "What happened next? Your injury never healed?"
King Lei Guan shook his head and said: "No, my injury will be completely healed within ten years."
Xia Chen was surprised, "Then why is your power so weak now?"
King Lei Guan said calmly: "Because during the period when I was injured, I could no longer let the flower of glory bloom, the crops no longer grew rapidly, and there was even a severe drought for two years, but I could only watch. Unable to exert any power, my followers gradually...forgot about me."
Xia Chen's heart trembled, and he said as if he suddenly woke up: "So, your power comes from faith?"
King Lei Guan nodded slowly and showed a bitter smile.
Xia Chen murmured to himself, "I see..."
Everything is explained.
…………
It is not uncommon for gods to become powerful through the power of belief in incense.
In other words, the world of Xia Chen's previous life. Such a setting is simply bad in many myths and legends, as well as later literary and artistic works.
The traditional Taoist myths in China are like this, and there are also film and television works abroad such as "American Gods" about the fight between old and new gods for belief.
However, after coming to the elf world, Xia Chen had never encountered such a legendary elf, so he did not expect that King Lei Guan had the ability to absorb the power of faith.
Recalling the old lady's story and the current situation of Dong Ning Village, Xia Chen understood the story that followed.
During the ten years when King Lei Guan was injured, humans and elves who were accustomed to its power to make all things grow rapidly were disappointed.
Human beings are very forgetful creatures. It is fine for one or two years, but they have not seen another miracle for ten years. The believers are naturally disappointed.
The emergence of natural disasters has intensified this process. Crop yields have plummeted, and people cannot survive. Naturally, the attitude towards King Lei Guan, a god who has "abandoned its followers," has deteriorated sharply, and may even turn into resentment.
And when King Lei Guan recovered from his injuries, the power of his faith dropped sharply, and he no longer had the ability to bloom the flower of glory.
Then there is a vicious cycle in which faith continues to decrease and ability is weakened again.
Until now, only a dozen old people in Dongning Village still remember this old King of Fertility.
This is the entire experience of King Leiguan falling from a legendary elf with infinite scenery to a weak existence that even Mahuola can bully at will.
"You are truly an admirable sage."
Xia Chen praised it sincerely.
When the dark night falls, it comes forward.
He was injured while trying to save Galar, which led to a series of subsequent chain reactions. He even lost his faith and strength and fell from the top to the bottom. Xia Chen did not hear any resentment from King Lei Guan.
Such an elf deserves people's respect and history's remembrance.
If before this, Xia Chen only wanted to help King Lei Guan because he wanted to borrow its power.
Now, he no longer has so much utilitarianism.
Xia Chen stared into King Leiguan's eyes and said seriously: "I will make your name spread from Galar to Donghuang, and no one will know it."
