Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 359 - 342 Slightly Eye-Burning...

"What have the players taught him? How did he end up like this?"

Peering through the faith "Star" to observe Serenadil, Eve was both amused and exasperated.

There he was, acting as a charmer to entice female players and scheming behind their backs to get them to work for him...

This wasn’t the Elf Royal Family she wanted!

She originally thought that under the joint guidance of Alice and the players, he would learn the elves’ integrity and nobility, combined with the players’ cleverness and wisdom, thus becoming a king with a broader vision... but she never expected it to turn out like this.

However, this wasn’t the end.

Eve did not stop observing Serenadil; instead, she continued to track him until he and the players finished the party.

The Primordial Elf was indeed a Primordial Elf.

They not only possessed extraordinary talents but also clearly had intelligence far beyond their kin.

Eve clearly saw how Serenadil easily hoodwinked Alice during her daily lesson checks by describing the barbecue party as a fruit party, making Alice fully believe him.

She saw Serenadil holding a wine-filled goblet, mingling among the players with a smile, easily gaining their goodwill, and effortlessly acquiring several new properties developed by the Mengmeng Committee in the Chosen City.

Then... he turned around and sold them to other players who came to the party...

Furthermore, she saw Serenadil with those seasoned old players, sharing all kinds of inappropriate jokes from Blue Star, making them laugh heartily and taking on his tasks with a brotherly camaraderie, all for meager rewards...

Though he organized the party, from start to finish, he did nothing himself.

All of the party preparations and the heavy lifting, including the final cleanup, were cleverly manipulated by Serenadil to be done by the players.

Not only that, but those players were genuinely happy, completely unaware that although they were invited to the party, they ended up being the laborers.

And Serenadil, from beginning to end, just sat back, enjoying it all with a smile.

As for him, he was inseparable from the two young elf girls who had followed him since Li Mu left the Chosen City. The three of them were joyously eating meat and drinking wine at the party... having the time of their lives...

There was an overwhelming display of intelligence throughout.

Moreover... there were a few little episodes. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

It happened that Alice and Berserker were also invited by other players to this party, where they stumbled upon a barbecue stand and... Serenadil and the two salivating young elves waiting for the feast.

Right away, Alice’s face changed.

Though as time passed, the elves gradually got used to the Chosen Ones’ craving for meat, seeing it in person was another matter.

Not to mention, this time Serenadil was caught in the act!

However, with just a few words, Serenadil managed to successfully appease this Holy Daughter and discreetly shoved the blame for the barbecue onto the players.

He even easily found two scapegoats—the two Northeastern buddies he’d invited over ostensibly to join the barbecue party, but who actually became the tools for grilling meat.

Those two buddies, utterly bewildered, stood there as Alice scolded them, only to later express their gratitude to Serenadil for trying to mediate, taking on two of Serenadil’s tasks for meager rewards...

Serenadil simply smiled faintly, waved his sleeve, and elegantly departed.

Leaving behind a handsome silhouette and a chorus of "Serenadil is really something," sighs all around.

Eve: ...

"Well, he’s been completely led astray..."

She shook her head.

Yet, concurrently, Eve was a bit puzzled.

If she recalled correctly, she should have specifically informed Alice to ensure the players did not teach Serenadil any strange knowledge or habits, to prevent him from heading down an odd path...

How did Serenadil become like this?

Apart from his appearance, internally, he completely deviated from being an elf.

*He had the sophisticated maneuvering required of a leader, but what about the habit of drinking and eating meat, and the mischievous demeanor revealed within his smile? Where did all those lewd jokes come from?*

*Taking a deep breath, Eve hastily probed the knowledge Serenadil had been taught over this period...*

She specifically mandated within the game’s teaching system that the players must record the knowledge being imparted before teaching it.

So, she quickly dug up Li Mu’s records...

Eve: ...

"’Comprehensive Mirror to Aid in Governance’ is fine, but what on earth is ’The Thick Black Theory’? And ’I Am Not Teaching You to Con’? Is someone worried the elves won’t be devious enough?"

Looking at Li Mu’s records, she was at a loss for words.

However, seeing the reasons Li Mu left in the task for imparting the knowledge, Eve understood the player’s original intention...

He felt the elves were too innocent and should learn some tactical skills.

Of course, Li Mu stated it this way in the system; Eve strongly suspected that this fellow still harbored thoughts of testing the "NPC cultivation function"...

Nonetheless, even he likely didn’t expect Serenadil to learn so quickly?

Among the players who were just tricked, Li Mu himself was included.

He happily accepted the task of helping Serenadil clean his house, rewarded with 100 contribution points.

Incidentally, Serenadil’s home was also in the Chosen City—a three-story villa, so luxurious, evidently crafted by the Mengmeng Committee Construction Team.

Eve estimated that the house price must be at least worth twenty thousand contribution points... certainly not something a mere NPC could acquire through task postings.

As for the various lewd jokes Serenadil learned, Eve figured out the source as well.

This guy was hanging out with the players daily, surely that’s where he picked it up...

"In a certain sense, he’s achieved something too... Fortunately, as a Primordial Elf, his loyalty to me won’t change, and when fooling the players, he’s still keeping a bottom line..."

*Eve consoled herself internally, while also deciding never to let players teach the other Primordial Elves.*

"Even if they must be taught, I will choose the teaching materials!"

"Those two little ones... have also been influenced by Serenadil. I wonder what expression El would have if she knew."

Thinking of the two young elf girls following closely behind Serenadil, Eve shook her head.

Yet, it wasn’t only the Primordial Elf Serenadil who changed.

Upon further observation, Eve also found that those returning elves had significantly changed under the influence of the players.

Many elves were influenced by the players, learning various entertainment activities and living habits from them.

Activities like poker and werewolf, which prevailed at the bonfire parties, unknowingly became popular among the elves...

Eve even saw an Old Elf set up a table on the streets of Feilengcui, where four people were playing mahjong... surrounded by a group of elders craning their necks to watch.

Watching the Old Elf enthusiastically slap down wooden mahjong tiles while joyfully shouting—

"I’ve won!"

*The scene was... slightly cringe-worthy.*
