356 Faces? [VI]
Therefore, the status of men in the elves is lower than that of women, not only because the overall strength of female elves is stronger, but most importantly because the reproduction of this race relies entirely on the tree of life and female elves, and male elves cannot reproduce at all. role.
In other words, after an elf is born, there is only a mother, not a father.
The tree of life can only produce ten mature fruits and ten new fruits every year, which means that the entire forest elves can only increase ten people every year. This kind of reproduction speed is really not flattering.
As the race war continues, there will be a certain amount of consumption every year, and it is rare for the elves to keep it unabated.
The relatively low status of male elves, coupled with the slow reproduction speed of the elves, caused some elves to have other ideas in their hearts.
Years ago, a male elder tried to break the rules and reproduce by mating a man and a woman.
Not only can it solve the problem of the slow reproduction speed of the elves, but if it succeeds, it can also greatly improve the status of male elves. However, the matter between men and women is the biggest taboo in the elves. For the elves who are extremely close to nature and have a pure heart, that kind of thing is the dirtiest behavior. There have been elves who have done that kind of thing, and they were all executed as a result.
With the help of his status and power, the Elf Elder secretly had a relationship with a certain female elf, and that female elf successfully became pregnant.
As a result, an internal dispute began to unfold.
.....
The reproduction speed of the elves is the biggest flaw of the clan, but physical communication is also a big taboo. The dilemma directly leads to the division of the whole clan into two factions.
The patriarch naturally opposed it, while the faction headed by the male elder stood on the opposite side, believing that this was the best way to strengthen the elves.
The feud between the two factions didn’t last long, and as the first pixie born to a female elf grew up, a big problem arose.
Although this child who was not conceived by the tree of life has the appearance of an elf and has an affinity for the magic power of life, it must be cultivated to possess the ability.
The elves, like the cyclops, will have powerful abilities as they grow naturally, which does not appear in the elves conceived through the mother.
Therefore, the elves bred in this way had disadvantages, and the patriarch at that time completely overthrew the opposing faction on the grounds.
It’s a pity that the elder saw an opportunity. He believed that although the elves conceived in this way lost their natural ability to improve, they could make up for the deficiency through cultivation, which was enough to increase the reproduction speed of the elves.
In the end, accompanied by irreconcilable contradictions, the elves were divided into two parts, one is the forest elves who stick to the ancestral precepts, and the other is the dark elves who are regarded as rebellious.
There was only one tree of life, and the rebellious dark elves at that time were obviously not as powerful as the forest elves, so naturally they failed to capture the tree of life, and their race reproduced in the same way as humans.
The disadvantages of that method can be made up for by the day after tomorrow, and the advantage is that the reproduction speed is far faster than that of the forest elves. As the years go by and thousands of years have passed, the originally weak dark elves have developed enough to compete with the astonishing power of the forest elves. degree.
Chen Han didn’t ask Evelyn why the forest elves didn’t know how to be flexible. He knew very well that saying this sentence might cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
This is a tradition that has been formed by a race for countless years, and it exists no matter how weird you think it is.
“Today is the day when the clan will multiply this year. The clan will add ten new members. As the most loyal friend of the clan, you can stay here to watch the ceremony.”
After Evelyn finished speaking, she shifted her gaze to the ten largest fruits on the tree of life, where small lives were bred there, and they were also the hope of the forest elves.
Sensing the faint pulse of life coming from the fruit, Chen Han frowned and said, “Why can the tree of life only breed ten people each year? Is there any way to make it breed more?”
“It relies on absorbing the power of natural life to condense into a young life. Ten tribesmen per year is the limit, unless...” Evelyn hesitated to speak, and shook her head helplessly.
“Unless what?”
“Unless you can find the spring of life and use it to water the tree of life, you can speed up the breeding speed.”
Evelyn smiled and sighed helplessly, and changed the topic: “That’s just a legend left by the ancestors. There is no guidance on what the spring of life looks like and where it is.”
Sudden!
A huge fruit radiated green light, a vigorous breath of life stirred up, and several tiny cracks appeared on the surface of the fruit.
Immediately, a female elf flew out of the crowd with a face full of joy, and the transparent light wings on her back floated to the side of the fruit, her expression was full of love and tenderness: “My child... my child is about to be born, he is about to be born , I hope it’s a cute little girl...”
In a race that is completely different from Yanhuang’s traditional patriarchal patriarchy, girls are favored and will have more status than boys in the future. She naturally hopes that her child will be a girl.
When all the elves were cheering for the arrival of the new life and celebrating the female elf who had a child, Chen Han frowned silently and thought about something: “I don’t know what the spring of life is, but the tree of life bred elves. If you want to absorb life force from other plants, don’t you just need to speed up its absorption?”
A bold idea emerged in his mind. If this method is feasible, it can be regarded as returning the favor of the elves. He doesn’t like this feeling of being indebted...
