309: Conquer the Fire Elf Clan

Mo Yan’s mind raced, piecing together all the fragments of information.

The more he thought, the more he felt that his “Law Replacement” hypothesis was the only truth.

This was like two Systems patching.

The old System, Lord World, felt it had too many restrictions and was not running smoothly, so it uninstalled the restriction patch.

As for the new System, Blue Star, its Foundation was too weak, completely lacking extraordinary powers. So, that supreme existence slightly modified the uninstalled patch, turning it into the “Frozen Age,” and then forcibly installed it onto Blue Star.

For Lord World, this was liberation, an upgrade.

For Blue Star, however, it was a dimensionality reduction strike, the arrival of the apocalypse!

“I probably… know what’s going on.”

Mo Yan sent a wisp of comforting thought, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart.

Now was not the time for shock; he had to seize this opportunity to gather more intelligence and find a solution to the problem.

The Elf Princess’s light flame suddenly brightened.

“You know? Please tell me!”

Mo Yan did not directly explain the complex conjecture; it was too distant for her.

He chose a more direct approach.

“The new shackles you feel originate from another world.”

“My homeland.”

“It is undergoing a massive transformation; a brand new, harsh Law is forming there.”

As this thought emerged, the entire Elf Spring fell into a deathly silence.

Even the weak little Fire Elfs stopped their flickering lights.

The light flame on the Elf Princess’s body solidified.

After a long while, she finally conveyed an incredulous thought.

“Another world… Law…”

“Do you mean that the restrictions appearing on us are the Laws of another world, projected onto us through you… or some connection we cannot comprehend?”

“That’s one way to understand it.”

“Moreover, this influence will likely become more apparent as my connection with you deepens.”

Mo Yan’s thoughts became clear.

These Lords and Professionals were like “routers.”

Connecting Blue Star and Lord World.

“Then… what should we do?” The Elf Princess’s thought was filled with despair.

“Are we to watch our Origin be frozen and then perish?”

“There is a way.”

Bai Lingyue listened to Mo Yan’s battle of wits with the air from the side. Although she didn’t know the specifics, seeing Mo Yan’s confident demeanor,

she knew that her Lord had surely found a solution to the problem again.

Mo Yan continued to transmit his thoughts: “Since the problem lies in the conflict of Laws, then we must use a stronger force to resist it, or… adapt to it.”

“Your fire seed heart, used by the Flame Demon Leader as the energy core of the altar, has been contaminated by abyssal Qi for too long and is already very weak.”

“Now, under the impact of the new Law, it will naturally accelerate its decay.”

He paused, then presented his solution.

“I have two plans.”

“First, and most direct. I will find a suitable replacement as soon as possible to swap out your fire seed heart from the altar.

Let it return to the Elf Spring and re-nourish your clan. This is addressing the root cause.”

“Second, before finding a replacement, I need to find a way to help you resist the erosion of the new Law. This is a temporary solution.”

The Elf Princess’s light flame flickered slightly.

“Resist? How can one resist a power that originates from the Laws of the world?”

“Use one Law to contend against another Law.” Mo Yan’s thought was steady and powerful.

“The power eroding you comes from my homeland.”

“But my Domain, protected by my authority, forms its own heaven and earth, possessing independent Laws.”

“As long as you become my subordinates and enter my Domain, it is equivalent to entering my Law’s Domain.”

“The Law power of my homeland world will naturally be isolated by the authority of my Domain.”

“In exchange, you need to provide me with the Elf Spring and fight for me when I need it.”

The Elf Princess fell silent.

To become a subordinate of a human Lord?

This was almost unimaginable for elemental life forms, who were naturally proud and never bowed to any force.

This meant they would lose their freedom, and their entire future would depend on the whim of this human before them.

But could she refuse?

She looked at her clansmen in the spring, whose lights were growing dimmer and slower.

She felt the constantly emerging shackles, making her tremble.

She suddenly realized that she had no choice at all.

By themselves, let alone resisting the strange Laws from another world, they couldn’t even retrieve their own fire seed heart.

Annihilation, or submission.

This mysterious and powerful human before her was their only and last hope.

After a long while, she finally made up her mind.

The brightest light flame, representing her true form, bowed towards Mo Yan, performing the highest form of submission for an elemental life form.

“Great… Master.”

“The Fire Elf Clan is willing to pledge allegiance to you! From now on, you are our protector, and your will is our direction!”

As her thought was sent out, hundreds of small Fire Elfs in the spring also bowed deeply in unison towards Mo Yan.

“Prompt: Special race, the Fire Elf Clan, has sworn allegiance to you! Loyalty has been locked to fanatical!”

“Prompt: You have gained the eternal friendship of the special race ‘Fire Elf.’ Your affinity for fire element power has greatly increased!

When you learn and cast fire-type skills, consumption is reduced by 20%, and power is increased by 20%!”

“System Prompt: You have unlocked a new Domain characteristic — Elemental Covenant (Fire)!”

“Elemental Covenant (Fire): Your Domain is bound to the Fire Elf Clan. Your Domain will automatically produce 100 units of Elf Spring (Legendary) daily.

All your Domain residents will receive an additional 5% damage reduction when facing fire attribute damage.”

Mo Yan could no longer suppress the curve of his lips.

This harvest was far greater than he had imagined!

Not only did it solve the survival crisis of the Fire Elf Clan, but it also brought their entire clan under his wing as subordinates; they were now his private property.

More importantly, it could automatically produce 100 units of legendary spring water every day!

This was a legendary resource!

Whether used to cultivate spiritual plants, for Alchemy, to treat injuries, or directly for subordinates to drink to improve their cultivation, it was an invaluable treasure!

With this continuous supply of Elf Spring, the overall strength of Cangming City would surely experience a leap forward!

Crisis?

No, this was a huge gift package dropped from the sky!

“My Lord?” Bai Lingyue looked at the undisguised smile on Mo Yan’s face and curiously leaned over, “Solved?”

“Yes, solved.” Mo Yan was in a great mood, “They will be our new neighbors in Cangming City from now on.”

Bai Lingyue’s eyes sparkled, but her heart was filled with shock.

“Master, then… our fire seed heart…”

The Elf Princess’s thought came again, carrying a hint of anticipation and apprehension.

“Don’t worry.” Mo Yan’s thought was conveyed, “Since you are now my people, your affairs are my affairs.”

“I will deal with this matter as soon as possible.”

“Now, the top priority is to move!”

Mo Yan looked at the large expanse of amber spring water before him, a slight frown on his brow.

This was a technical challenge.

The Elf Spring was alive, the Foundation of the Fire Elf Clan, not as simple as just scooping it into a water bag.

To move it entirely to his Domain would probably require some effort.
