Chapter 235: Elves?



Alex thrust the knife forward, expecting it to pierce the tree bark. But what happened was unexpected.

The moment the knife pierced the bark, it was like the bark turned into a sponge, and the knife was just a normal wooden stick—it was pushed back out.

It was like Alex was punching rubber.

He blinked a few times to process what had happened, then turned his gaze to the knife, which had lost its blade.

There was no sound of metal breaking; it was like the blade had been eaten by the tree.

Alex focused his gaze on the tree, then looked at his hand. He hesitated for a moment before becoming determined.

He started moving his shoulder, trying to punch the tree, but only halfway through, his fist was stopped.

MingYue\'s cold hand gripped it.

"What do you think you\'re doing? Are you stupid?" She asked coldly.

With what had happened before, Alex felt irked by being called stupid, so he raised his tone a bit and retorted, "What do you think I\'m doing? I\'m trying to find out more about the tree."

"By sacrificing your own hand? Are you crazy?"

"I can regenerate it anyway. What\'s the problem? It\'s not like I\'m asking you to do it."

Alex\'s reply made MingYue\'s veins throb.

"And what use is that? You might as well cut it off yourself and throw it toward the tree.

Then, great. You find some of its features, but what use is that?

We will find out all the same after binding one of the people here. Stop wasting time."

Alex\'s lips twitched. He had many words forming in his mind, but he held them all back.

He knew they were just venting his anger and would only hurt both of them.

"Fine, you go first then, I\'ll just follow from behind," Alex replied, his tone tinged with irritation.

MingYue\'s gaze lingered on Alex\'s for a moment. She felt like saying more but decided against it.

Her reasoning was similar to Alex\'s; she didn\'t want to escalate things further. She began leading the way toward the village.

They passed a variety of plants, some of which even bore fruit. Each time they encountered these, Alex\'s gaze lingered, but then he would notice MingYue looking at him coldly.

This make him abandoned any thought of cutting or eating the fruit.

It happened several times before they finally neared the village They noticed a humanoid figure climbing one of the trees, seemingly reaching for a fruit that looked like an apple but with crimson red skin, like a tomato.

They were alarmed because, as expected, they couldn\'t depend solely on detecting life force in this place—the area was too saturated with it, making it difficult to pinpoint the man\'s presence until he moved.

Fortunately, their eyes were sharp enough to spot him.

The figure wore long pants and a robe-like shirt.

The fabric looked unique to them, colored brown and green like it was made from wood and leaves, yet flexible enough to suggest it had been turned to a thread before being woven into cloth.

The man had long, golden hair tied into a ponytail at the back He had blue eyes and a handsome face, But the most striking feature Alex noticed was his ears—they were long, like those of an elf.

\'Let\'s capture him, then you can put him in awecube,\' MingYue suggested telepathically.

\'MingYue, he looks like a normal villager. We can\'t just bind him like that.\'

\'Then what\'s your proposal? Knock him out and interrogate him for information?\'

\'No, we captured him and tried to negotiate to get a better understanding of the area.\'

\'That won\'t work. In the first place, are you sure you can understand his language?\'

\'I\'ve already copied Vesa\'s language library, so as long as he doesn\'t speak some entirely new language, I\'m confident I can talk to him.

If not, I\'ll just use my ability to analyze his speech.\'

MingYue felt Alex\'s approach was too ineffective and a waste of time, but she knew that if she rebuffed him again, he would probably get mad, which she didn\'t want

\'Fine, you negotiate with him, then.\'

She then looked at the man Since her ability was ice-based, it would be better for her to knock the man down.

Her initial plan was to encase the man in an ice coffin, but since Alex wanted to negotiate, it was best to keep things as amicable as possible.

MingYue used her qi to create a small puddle of water, then shot it toward the tree.

The amount was negligible and would cause no damage, but for the man in the tree, it was more than enough.

The water splashed onto one of the branches he intended to jump to. It was still a few steps away, so he didn\'t notice anything strange until it was too late.

The moment he jumped onto the puddle that MingYue had purposely made slippery like oil, he tripped.

The man fell from the tree, his head crashing to the ground.

\'Your turn,\' MingYue\'s voice reverberated in Alex\'s mind.

But Alex didn\'t move immediately. He wanted to see if the man had been knocked out.

The best scenario would be if the man owed them for helping him. Judging by his appearance, his civilization seemed cultured.

Alex started calculating his chances and decided to tilt the odds in his favor.

There was too much life force in the air for the man to be knocked out easily. He took out a small sphere and flicked it toward the ground where the man would fall.

Caught off guard by the fall, the man didn\'t notice the sphere. It hit the ground and exploded, releasing an odorless gas with strong anesthetic properties.

This sphere was a reward Alex had obtained from the last dungeon.

Within seconds, the man fell unconscious.

Alex cautiously approached, making sure he was knocked out. MingYue stood close by, her expression unreadable.
