Game of the World Tree - Chapter 208

208. Chapter 208 Unicorn

After walking a few steps, Eve could clearly hear the players talking.

“Awesome! Sarandil, how did you catch it?”

The loud voice was from Demacia, and his words were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

“I’ve said it many times, I didn’t catch it, but I brought it back because I saw it was injured.”

The tone of the original elf Sarandil was somewhat helpless, his voice was mellow and gentle, very pleasant to hear.

“Do you have to tie it up with a rope after bringing it back?”

Li Mu’s voice was somewhat speechless.

“There is no other way… It is too uncooperative, and I haven’t learned healing magic yet, so I can only bring it back forcibly to find someone to heal it, and… didn’t I already let it go?”

Sarandil spread his hands.

“But speaking of which, it is really handsome and beautiful! It is worthy of being a sacred beast in the Western fantasy legend!”

“If I can take it as a mount, it will be dozens of streets away from the cave spider, right?”

Demacia’s voice was filled with excitement.

Mount?

Eve’s heart moved.

She took a few steps forward and came behind a few players, finally seeing what they were watching.

It was a snow-white animal, shaped like a slender white horse, with a spiral horn on its head.

It knelt in the corner, watching the players around it vigilantly, and there was an obvious claw mark of a monster on its hind legs. The wound was very serious and was still dripping with bright red blood…

Is this… a unicorn?

Eve was slightly stunned.

Unicorns are a kind of monster unique to the Forest of Elves. When they are adults, they have the strength of Black Iron to Silver. If they sign a contract with other wisdoms, they can even grow further.

They are snow-white and look like white horses with spiral horns on their heads. However, their manes and tails are much longer than those of ordinary horses, and they look very noble and beautiful.

Unicorns are arrogant and stubborn, and like to live in forest areas with high concentrations of magic. They run very fast. They are monsters with wind and nature attributes, and the sharp horns on their heads can also release healing and detoxification magic.

However, the magic of unicorns cannot be used on themselves, and they often use their magic to help companions in need.

This beautiful creature was mentioned in the World Tree inheritance that Eve obtained.

During the Silver Civilization, many elves would cultivate their own unicorns and call each other partners.

However, with the thousand-year war of gods, the world tree fell, the elves declined, and the unicorns also encountered similar treatment as the elves…

With their beautiful appearance and unique healing magic, they are also regarded as excellent magic pets by other races. Even if they cannot be taken as magic pets, their horns are the best magic materials and are sought after by many races.

Especially humans.

With the support of humans, orcs also began to capture unicorns and sell them to the human world.

However, unicorns are arrogant and stubborn, and only those who they actively recognize will be followed by them.

They are cautious and vigilant, and are very sensitive to the emotions of other creatures. If you cause resistance from unicorns at the beginning of meeting, it will be difficult to become companions with them.

Because of the stubborn and vigilant character of unicorns, the saying that unicorns only like pure and innocent virgins has gradually spread in human society. Only beautiful and kind girls can capture their hearts…

Of course, these are all rumors.

However, it is true that unicorns are difficult to subdue.

Except for the powerful archdruids who have a generally friendly relationship with Warcraft, other intelligent creatures can only rely on luck to become friends with them.

If they are caught by force, unicorns will not accept taming and enslavement, and eventually choose to starve and die.

Recalling the inheritance of the World Tree, Eve looked at the unicorn surrounded by the players.

This is a small unicorn, it seems to be underage, and its strength is the middle level of Black Iron.

Because of the injuries on its body, it is estimated that even a player with a lower Black Iron level can easily subdue it.

However, looking at this unicorn, Eve thought of more.

Unicorns are social creatures.

If the players encounter one, it means that there must be a whole tribe behind it.

After the elves declined, the magic power level in the core area of the Elf Forest gradually decreased, and the unicorns gradually disappeared from the forest.

There are rumors that they migrated to the northern area of the Elf Forest…

Now it seems that with the improvement of the magic power level in the core area of the Elf Forest, they are likely to migrate back from the north.

Eve can understand why the players are so excited.

From any angle, such beautiful creatures are indeed the best choice for mounts. Their compatibility with elves is much higher than that of crypt spiders.

However, it is not easy to gain their recognition.

Unicorns are soft-hearted and rely on their rapport. It is probably difficult to subdue them with the violent means of the players.

However, unicorns are also a kind of creature that attaches great importance to repaying favors. If you help it, you can easily gain its friendship.

“Let’s talk about other things later. I’ll treat it first.”

Looking at the injury on the unicorn’s hind leg, Li Mu pondered.

However, as soon as he took a step forward, the unicorn began to struggle, humming, panting, twisting its body and showing its sharp horns, in a defensive posture, not allowing Li Mu to get close, let alone treat it.

“No… It seems that its temper is very violent… It won’t let anyone get close to it…”

“Come on, let’s hold it down together! Heal its wounds first.”

Demacia suggested.

For a while, several players came forward to hold it down, trying to heal it by force.

The injured unicorn was no match for the players. The players quickly controlled it, and it could only struggle and hum while twisting its body.

“Hurry up! Brother Mu, heal it!”

Li Mu nodded, chanted a spell and cast a ring of magic [Heal Injury].

The light green energy gathered in his hands and poured into the unicorn’s wounds as he directed, but… to everyone’s surprise, the unicorn’s injuries did not weaken.

“What’s going on?”

Li Mu was slightly stunned.

“Let me try.”

Another druid player said.

He also chanted a spell.

However… his healing spell had no effect at all.

“Why can’t this be cured?”

The players were very surprised.

“You can’t cure it like this.”

Just when the players were confused, a sigh came from behind them.

A few people turned around and found that it was Alice, the Saint of Nature, who was speaking.

She was wearing a noble long dress of a natural priestess and came behind the players at some point.

After seeing who was coming, the players immediately put on a warm smile and saluted respectfully subconsciously:

“Lord Alice, good afternoon!”

As a rare purple NPC in the whole server, Alice has already established prestige among the players.

Everyone wants to build a good relationship with the Saint, improve their favorability, and then ask for a few rare private tasks, so the posture is quite respectful.

Eve, who was watching with a vest on the side of the players, also saluted the elf girl like the crowd.

“Hello, the Chosen Ones.”

Alice nodded to the players.

Then, she looked at the unicorn with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes:

“I never thought that after so many years, I would have the chance to see unicorns again. Could it be that… as the darlings of nature, they also sensed the return of Her Majesty the Mother Goddess?”

After that, she ordered the players:

“Let it go first. Unicorns have special physiques. If they don’t want to, your healing magic will not have any effect on their bodies.”

“Fuck! Magic immune physique?!”

Demacia cursed subconsciously.

Alice ignored him, but faced the other players and said:

“Therefore, you can’t use force, but communicate with it first.”

With the NPC’s order, the players quickly let go of the unicorn.

Seeing the players’ actions, Alice looked at Li Mu again:

“If I remember correctly, you should have mastered [Whisper of Nature]. You can communicate with it with this spell.”

Li Mu suddenly realized, and then slapped his head:

“Yes, how could I forget this.”

After spending contribution points to exchange for several powerful skills of druids during this period, he almost forgot this “weak” skill given by the goddess!

Thinking of this, Li Mu quickly cast [Whisper of Nature] and said to the unicorn:

“Don’t be afraid, we will not hurt you, but will treat your injuries.”

After hearing what Li Mu said, the unicorn raised its head slightly.

It seemed to be calmer, but the look it gave the players was still cautious and vigilant.

“It worked!”

Li Mu was happy.

However, when he was about to go forward to treat it, the unicorn retreated again, showing resistance again.

Li Mu: …

“This… won’t work. It’s too sensitive.”

Alice was not surprised to see the unicorn’s reaction:

“This is normal. Unicorns are cautious and vigilant. The relatively strong actions you have taken before have made it wary of you.”

“Then… what should we do now?”

Alice sighed and said:

“Now, it will not trust you, and will definitely not approach you. You are too close to it. Stand back, I will heal it.”

After hearing her words, the players had to step back a few steps to make way for Alice.

Alice walked towards the unicorn and added:

“With the cave spider in front, I can probably guess what kind of mentality you have towards the unicorn.”

“I can only remind you here that the unicorn is the traditional companion of the elves, symbolizing nobility, beauty and purity…”

“The elves are naturally more likely to be favored by the unicorn than other races, but… if you look at it with the idea of enslavement from the beginning, then you will never be recognized by it.” “

The only existence that can gain the favor and recognition of the unicorn as soon as they meet is the true archdruid, and those who are friendly, sincere, pure-minded, and love nature. There are not many such people among traditional elves, let alone you as the chosen ones.”

After saying that, Alice came to the unicorn, squatted down and began to cast a healing spell on it.

However, as soon as the elf girl squatted down, the unicorn struggled to stand up, and even refused her treatment, and limped away from her.

Seeing the unicorn like this, Alice frowned slightly:

“This is troublesome… Maybe you scared it too much before, and it doesn’t trust anyone now. Perhaps, we can only go to Barcelona…”

Alice didn’t finish her words.

Because the unicorn moved again.

Under everyone’s surprised eyes, it limped to Eve, who was wearing a vest, and lay down obediently at her feet…

By the way, it raised its head and rubbed her calf in a flattering manner…
