Chapter 238
@Infinite great literature, all in Jinjiang Literature City
【You have consumed a 'Ning Bing Guo (mutated)', Fire Resistance permanently +10】
Ye Bai: “!”
It really works!
If it were just reflected on the panel, Ye Bai might have doubted it was a ‘dream version of personal attributes,’ but hearing the system prompt confirmed it—there was no deception. Even after leaving the dream, the effect remained the same.
With this realization, Ye Bai's eyes lit up.
In this forest, magical plants like the Ning Bing Guo were everywhere! Moreover, in terms of quantity, the high-level magical plants in the entire Emerald Forest outnumbered the crops in the fields of Bai Ye City.
Even if consuming these fruits, which permanently enhance various attributes, would gradually lose effectiveness after a certain amount, there were simply too many varieties here.
Instantly, Ye Bai stopped holding back Ottofis and joined in, becoming Ottofis II.
【You have consumed a 'Long Lin Guo (enhanced)', Health permanently +1000】
【You have consumed a 'Bai Ling Cao', Poison Resistance permanently +10】
【You have consumed a 'Tai Yang Guo (mutated)', Ice Resistance permanently +10】
【You have consumed...】
In the game, you can't overeat, and in the dream of the game, you definitely can't overeat. Besides, Ye Bai also had the effect of the title [Sea God Breeder], which had already granted her an epic enhancement in terms of ‘eating.’
Exploring the Emerald Forest while munching away with Ottofis was the greatest respect Ye Bai could show for the main quest.
They walked slowly for a hundred meters when suddenly, both Ye Bai and Ottofis came to a halt.
Through the gaps in the dense magical trees, a massive branch appeared in the sky, seemingly spanning the heavens, enveloped in a green glow.
At the same time, the life branch in Ye Bai's hand began to emit a light, pulsing like a breath, resonating with the branch in the sky.
“This is... the Life Branch.”
Ye Bai confirmed it at first glance.
Of course, compared to the small piece in her hand, this was the true essence of the Life Branch. Its true form was enormous, as the space of the Emerald Forest was supported by it. The strange flowers and plants seen ahead were all dependent on the existence of the Life Tree.
As Ye Bai approached the corner of the Life Tree with her branch, the next moment, over a dozen colorful light points flew out from the long branch.
The light points had a clear target; after appearing, they floated straight down towards Ye Bai.
Could they be fairies?
So far, on this journey, aside from the lush plants, she hadn’t seen any animals, including the native inhabitants of the Emerald Forest—the high elves.
As the light points drew closer, Ye Bai's confusion deepened.
Because the light points were just pure points of light, not magical or elemental creatures, and certainly not the high elves she initially thought lived on the Life Tree.
The light points approached and slowed down.
Ottofis curiously sniffed at the nearest light point and then sneezed.
Then, under Ye Bai's watchful gaze, the light points danced around her for a moment.
Ye Bai followed the light points with a wary yet puzzled expression, but she wouldn’t make any aggressive moves until she was attacked.
After all, these light points emerging from the Life Tree must have some intricate connection to the elven race.
The high elf race is one of the top groups in the divine realm, and like most fantasy settings, they possess delicate and beautiful appearances, are graceful and kind, love nature, and have high artistic accomplishments.
This seemingly hermit-like race has one notable flaw... or rather, a characteristic: they hold grudges.
As one of the top factions in the divine realm, high elves can learn advanced wood magic related to life and poison if they join a magic profession, while physical professions include archers and sharpshooters.
Among the physical profession's signature skills, the [Hatred Mark] is akin to a devil's contract; it persists even after a player dies and respawns.
If you offend an elven NPC and get marked with a Hatred Mark, you must complete specific quests to remove it; otherwise, you might find an elf from the Emerald Forest hunting you down in any forest terrain.
So, at least in the divine realm, it’s best not to cross elves.
The light points seemed harmless; after circling around Ye Bai, they hovered in mid-air before her.
Then, the light points gathered and pulsed, and a gentle, melodious voice, as clear as a spring, spoke:
“Messenger of the God King, you have finally arrived.”
“Please follow the elves; I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
Messenger of the God King... Upon hearing this title, Ye Bai shivered, instinctively glancing at the pendant at her waist, her mind racing with speculation.
Could the paper figure be that God King? And whose voice was speaking from behind the light points?
Unfortunately, the paper figure couldn’t enter the dream, and no matter how many questions Ye Bai had, she couldn’t confirm anything at this moment.
Ahead, the light points began to fly purposefully in one direction, with one or two bouncing back and forth, as if beckoning Ye Bai to follow.
Seeing this, Ye Bai didn’t hesitate and quickly followed after Ottofis.
...
As she moved forward, Ye Bai pondered.
Her entry into the Emerald Forest was clearly related to the Life Branch, which she had cleverly obtained from the Hell Demon, linked to the God King’s treasure quest issued by the paper figure.
Aside from that, the only confirmed information she had about that God King was the incident of the deep sea descending into hell and the Kraken devouring the core of hell, a contingency left behind by the other party many years ago.
Following the light points, the magical plants along the way parted like sentient creatures, creating a path for Ye Bai and Ottofis.
This ability to control plants... It was only now that Ye Bai recalled the words she had missed from the mysterious figure: “Follow the elves.” Were these light points truly elves?
Just as she was astonished, Ye Bai suddenly found herself in front of a magnificent giant tree trunk, a sight that could only be described as a wonder. The rich life force surged from every branch and leaf of this divine tree, supporting this dreamlike forest like the heavens.
In front of the giant tree trunk stood a stunning blonde elf, dressed in the simplest white gown, yet radiating an unparalleled beauty.
The beautiful blonde elf had her eyes half-closed at first, but as Ye Bai approached, her pointed ears twitched, lifting her similarly light golden eyelashes to reveal her eyes, which sparkled like the most precious gems in a pale blue hue.
Then, the elf smiled gently at Ye Bai and introduced herself:
“Pleased to meet you, I am the Elven Queen, Ainoluxia.”

Chapter 161
“Pleased to meet you, I am the Elven Queen, Ainoluxia.”
The Elven Queen, in her white gown beneath the Life Tree, smiled at Ye Bai, radiating a dreamlike glow.
Even Ye Bai, the creator, found herself mesmerized, each frame of this scene could serve as a promotional image for the game.
After all, she only knew the racial setting, while the elf before her was a fully realized individual.
After a moment, Ye Bai snapped back to reality: “Hello... I am Bai Ye.”
At the same time, she used Insight on the Elven Queen before her.
【Elven Queen Ainoluxia】
Level: 1??
Health: ?????/??????
Skills: Emerald Dream, ?????, ????
Weaknesses: ????, ????
A true Elven Queen, one of the top races in the divine realm, was standing before her... This revelation left Ye Bai unexpectedly astonished.
In this great depression of the divine realm, witnessing the last ancient dragon perish, the Sea God Kraken starving to the point of separating its spiritual and physical forms, and the Hell Demon cursed and imprisoned, seeing a well-preserved, communicative king of a top race was enough to leave Ye Bai feeling somewhat ‘overwhelmed.’
At this moment, the light points guiding Ye Bai had already flown towards Ainoluxia, playfully circling around her, jumping with mischief.
