Chapter 278:
After completing the preliminary trade agreement in the waters of Lake Luna, Herad and his party went to Ashenvale as guests at the invitation of Tyrande.
Ashenvale is the main gathering place for night elves.
There are big and leafy trees everywhere.
A cluster of towering trees supports a quiet and peaceful forest world.
Relying on the rich resources of the large forest of Ashenvale, the night elves live a carefree life.
The trees in Ashenvale are a little different from normal trees.
Their trunks, branches and leaves are lighter purple.
It looks like the skin of a night elf.
This was after the War of the Ancients, before the High Elves split from the Night Elves. The ancestors of the High Elves summoned a magic storm here to demonstrate.
Magic storms gathered in the sky above Ashen Valley, causing the sky and earth to change color, showing the powerful power of arcane magic.
Although this act caused no actual damage, it dyed the trees in Ashenvale and surrounding areas purple, a symbol of arcane magic.
Then the high elves were driven out of Ashenvale by the angry night elves because of their abuse of arcane magic.
In fact, the night elves themselves do not reject purple trees.
Even their houses are made of these purple trees.
In fact, the night elves' love for purple has penetrated deep into their bones.
Their lives are filled with purple.
Even their customized armor was required to be painted purple.
However, those natural intelligent creatures do not like this color.
From time to time along the way you will see trees turning into normal green branches and leaves.
Even the purple on the tree trunks has almost receded, leaving only very light traces.
That was restored by the guardian of the jungle using natural magic.
Turning purple trees back to green is not an easy thing to do.
But as long as the forest guardians feel that they are destined to a certain tree, they will spend a lot of energy to transform that tree.
This is why green trees mostly appear on the roadside.
Things like fate also depend on whether you can meet them.
Trees that the guardian of the jungle cannot usually see are naturally unlikely to be encountered by fate.
Of course, sometimes the guardians of the jungle will go deep into the forest, and they will transform themselves when they meet someone who matches their eyes.
While passing a tree house on the road, Herard finally saw the legendary guardian of the jungle.
It was a powerful creature with a lower body that resembled a reindeer, an upper body that resembled a night elf male, and huge antlers on its head.
The tough appearance of the jungle guardian is much stronger than the centaurs roaming the desolate land!
He is about three meters tall, with muscles all over his body, and he is also a natural spell caster.
Grom Hellscream, let alone defeat the demigod Cenarius.
I guess it would be tough to beat these jungle guardians!
First, the roots are wrapped and tied, and then a big closed bucket comes up.
Those big hands with skin like tree bark would definitely hurt if they hit someone!
The idle jungle guardian saw Tyrande passing by with guests, and immediately waved hello enthusiastically, inviting everyone to come and be guests.
Tyrande was originally taking guests around to introduce the customs and customs of the night elves.
Someone jumped out to entertain them, and of course she was very happy to do so.
"Marandis, quickly take out the moonlight wine you bought from Moonglade."
Hearing Tyrande ask for the moonlight wine, Marandis suddenly felt that her mouth was very mean.
If I hadn't said hello just now, I wouldn't have had to bring out the moonshine wine to entertain the guests.
Moonlight Brew is a high-end wine well-known in night elf society.
Its value cannot be compared with ordinary famous wines!
If you want to brew moonshine wine, you must first have water from Luna Lake.
Lake Luna is a huge lake located in the central area of Moonglade.
The sparkling water surface is like the moonlight against the starry sky.
So people gave it this legendary name.
Moreover, the water of Luna Lake has indeed been blessed by the moon god Elune.
The result is one of the purest and healthiest water sources in Azeroth.
It sounds like there is a lot of water in Luna Lake, so it shouldn't be difficult to get it. However, Moonglade is the domain of the Keepers of the Jungle.
If it weren't for the close relationship between the jungle guardians and the night elves, it would be difficult for them to get in and take a look.
Druids who have been to Moonglade regard it as a holy place.
How can you take out the things in the Holy Land casually?
Only some jungle guardians who like to make wine will go to Luna Lake to get some lake water to make wine.
The reason why things are rare is very valuable, coupled with the really excellent quality.
Making Moonlight Wine a very precious wine.
Seeing Marandis taking out a glass tube in pain, Herard was speechless.
He could tell the condition of the wine at a glance.
This is fruit wine mixed with water from Lake Luna.
He has a wide range of fruit wines available in large quantities.
As long as Marandis can get the water over, he can make various flavors of moonshine wine in minutes.
Herard thought very simply.
The key is that Marandis, the guardian of the jungle, cannot take water from Luna Lake at will.
Fetching water must be done secretly.
Although the other jungle guardians would not stop him from getting water, there was definitely some criticism behind his back.
Therefore, he would wait until no one was around, quickly fill up a few cans of water, and then stop.
This opportunity is rare.
After all, there are always people around Luna Lake.
Especially those tree demons that walk and jump around.
They just like to play in the woodland around Lake Luna.
Marandis poured wine for everyone while telling them about the difficulty of getting water from Luna Lake.
Herard picked up the clear fruit wine and took a sip.
The fruit wine is very refreshing in the mouth and is indeed much better than ordinary fruit wine.
And with just a sip, my connection to arcane energy becomes even more acute.
Night elves don't have mages.
Priests and druids don't think this way when they drink moonshine brew.
What they can sense is that meditation becomes smoother.
Feeling the benefits of moonlight wine, Herard's mind suddenly started to work.
How to make these jungle guardians thick-skinned and get more water from Luna Lake?
However, the guardians of the jungle have no desires and demands, and there are not enough benefits to impress them.
Even if some of them like to drink, they don't have to drink moonshine wine.
Herard considered several options, but could not find one that was reliable.
Just when he was at his wits' end, the clear and sweet sound of play came from the distance.
Soon, several tree demons who were playing carelessly ran out from the depths of the forest.
Dryads and jungle guardians have the same origin, and are both descendants of the demigod Cenarius.
The Jungle Keepers were copied from male night elves, and the Dryads were copied from female night elves.
Horad glanced at Tyrande and silently put double quotes on her.
The first generation of female night elves like her were tall and muscular.
If it weren't for his delicate face and the fact that he was wearing a priest's moon-white robe, he would be a proper violent female man!
The body shape of the dryad is relatively standard.
Their upper body is not that strong, their lower body is similar to that of a sika deer, and they walk very lightly.
These are the most active little fairies in the forest, and they are also carefree in character.
After jokingly saying hello, they took fruits and cakes from the table to eat without hesitation, not knowing what dignity was.
Looking at these shameless guys, Herard suddenly had an idea.
The plan to get water from Luna Lake requires characters like theirs.
