Chapter 1144: I'm Not Here to Find Trouble
Regarding this news.
Matthew found it unbelievable.
However, Beanna was unlikely to lie to him, and considering Jade Court\'s strange and secretive attitude…
Everything seemed to make sense.
"Was it not enough to be fooled once?
"Do you have to be deceived again?
"Do wood elves have a gullible psyche? No, it might also be a fertile psyche…"
Matthew cursed in his heart.
When he was researching the Scar of the Dead, Matthew had learned a lot about the history of the wood elves.
This race indeed had a rich experience of being deceived.
This was especially true for the elven queens of the past generations. Almost every one of them had a naive and gullible expression on their faces.
There was no need to mention the Troll era.
In history, there were at least three Elven Queens who were tricked into conceiving by sorcerers, demons, and high-level demons.
However, the other two didn\'t cause as much trouble as the Scar of the Dead.
Coincidentally.
The three swindlers had initially chosen to disguise themselves as bards when they approached the elven queens.
This also led to the reputation of bards in the elves being harmed.
Jade Court had once ordered the banishment of all bards near the capital, probably to prevent their queen from being deceived again.
Matthew thought.
If there was a love brain domain in this world, then the elven queens would have become gods long ago.
Other than being easily deceived.
The wood elves seemed to have two special characteristics. One was that they were extremely stubborn.
The second was that he would not reflect on himself after the incident and would only blame others.
Matthew observed.
Throughout history, the Wood Elves had always been gambling. Even if they found something wrong, even if their allies kindly reminded them, they would still choose to stick to their own opinions in most cases.
Unfortunately…
Most of the paths they had followed had been proven wrong.
There were also high-level mages in the Alliance who had conducted in-depth analyses of the Wood Elves.
The final conclusion was:
There were two main reasons why this race had such strange characteristics.
First, the Wood Elves had an awkward position in the Elf Tribe. According to the hierarchy set by the Ancient Elven Gods, they were on the same level as the Sea Elves, but were one level lower than the Night Elves and Cloud Elves.
But they were different from the Sea Elves, who were isolated from the world.
The wood elves had extensive contact with the major civilizations on the continent. On the one hand, they did not think much of the weak humans, but on the other hand, they wanted to get close to the night elves and the trolls.
This was a race that would die without a spiritual idol.
They had a huge servile nature.
It was also because of this that they were easily coerced or led astray.
Secondly, compared to the other elves, the wood elves had a single element in their bodies.
This was quite similar to the demons.
The high-level mage discovered that the more singular the element in the body, the easier it was for the species to become dependent on other powerful species, so it was easy to be enslaved.
However, due to historical reasons.
Even after the rise of the humans, the wood elves probably still maintained the mentality of "we were once powerful too".
Regarding this point.
The high-level mage concluded that…
" Wood elves will easily succumb to any powerful race that has massacred them in history.
"The reason why they still maintained their arrogance towards humans.
"It was simply because the humans had never massacred the wood elves."
The mage pointed out.
The other elves more or less had similar situations.
However, because the wood elves had the most extensive contact with humans, these characteristics were also most vividly reflected.
"Therefore, if the Alliance wants to completely control the power of the elf race, it\'s best to find an opportunity to carry out a round of slaughter against a certain type of elf."
Matthew was deeply impressed by the radical content.
At that time, he thought that this Advanced Mage was too extreme.
And now.
Only then did Matthew understand the source of the other party\'s extremism.
"These elves are not human at all!"
Matthew gradually calmed down.
He opened the second letter.
This letter was from Alan, the Winter Moon. The style of the letter was completely different from Beanna\'s.
Alan told Matthew happily.
The Elders \'attitude towards Matthew had changed. They were considering accepting Matthew to deal with the Scar of the Dead.
However, at the specific execution level.
The Elders Guild still insisted on their plan.
Alan also vaguely pointed out that the change in the Elders Guild\'s attitude was most likely related to the Blood Moon attack.
The half-elf mage hoped that Matthew could go to the Jade Court.
Even if he could not directly take over the handling of the Scar of the Dead.
At the very least, he would be able to get some chances to intervene.
As for the one million that Matthew had mentioned earlier.
Alan helplessly expressed that this was unacceptable to the Elders Guild.
Moreover, she also doubted whether there were enough gold coins in the treasury of Jade Court to pay for Matthew\'s appearance fee.
However, if Matthew was willing to come.
Alan expressed that she was willing to pay Matthew a certain amount of compensation out of her own pocket.
The entire letter was filled with optimism.
She didn\'t mention anything about Evil Art Master Lance at all!
This made Matthew a little puzzled.
Alan was a registered mage of Jade Court, and she was also one of the elves.
How could she not know about the Elders Guild\'s plan?
Matthew thought about it.
The probability of Alan being controlled by the Evil Art Masters or being persuaded by the Elders Guild to defect was relatively low.
