Chapter 440 First meeting
The sea was calm and petals fell to the ground.
. . . . .
The Elf King Cocoxi Hestice was lying on the flower basket hammock she had woven herself, with a sad look on her face.
Because of her selfish thoughts, the Long-Eared Tribe was cursed by the World Tree, and some members of the tribe began to lose their lives.
Kokoxi curled up in a corner, regretting becoming the Elf King and regretting controlling the power of the world.
The power of the world seemed to be integrated with her and could not be shaken off no matter what.
"As long as I'm gone, my people can be saved..." She had thought this more than once.
But Kokoxi didn't find a new candidate for the Elf King, so she had no choice but to die.
Just as she was worried all day, the appearance of a child attracted her attention.
Maze, kids.
In Kokoxi's opinion, these are two things that cannot be connected at all.
A child who couldn't even walk appeared in the big maze she created.
"How did he get in? Playful?"
"He's still so young, how could he possibly want to play around? Are you stupid, Kokosi?"
"Could it be that it's an abandoned baby?"
Kokoxi was a little confused, not knowing whether she should take care of this human child.
"Should we send him away?"
"If he is really an abandoned baby, even if he is sent to his parents, he will not be able to escape the fate of being abandoned again. How pitiful..."
"Just leave it here and ignore it?"
Kokoxi hit herself on the head with a chestnut.
"Of course not. He's still so young, he'll definitely be eaten by the monster!"
After struggling for a moment, she decided to move the child to a safe area first.
After doing this, Kokoxi became even more conflicted.
Even if there were no monsters attacking, it would be impossible for such a young child to survive in the maze.
"He will starve to death..."
"How to do?"
"He needs food!"
Kokoxi moved her mind, and many green vines grew in the room where the boy was.
The vines grew rapidly, soon covering half of the wall, and then bloomed and bore fruit.
She looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and nodded, "This way, I won't die of hunger or thirst, huh..."
"Ok?"
"Kokoxi, are you really an idiot? He is so young, how can he pick fruits by himself?"
Just as she was struggling fiercely with herself, the boy suddenly opened his eyes.
Kokoxi covered her mouth instantly, as if she was afraid that the noisy quarrel in her heart would scare the child far away in the maze.
Seeing that the child was not crying or making a fuss, and looking at the surrounding environment, she felt warm in her heart.
"What a cute baby..."
"You didn't cry at all, you're so good..."
"Ah, don't run around, the fruits over there are too high, you can't pick them..."
Suddenly, Kokoxi was stunned.
"Ok?"
"Can a human child of this age already stand up?"
"He even ran!"
Before she could recover from her shock, the boy's next move caused her brain to completely shut down.
The child pulled off some vines covered with green leaves and wove a grass skirt for himself with his bare hands.
He also used branches he found nearby to knock down the fruits that were high up on the vines.
He even wiped the fruit carefully with leaves before eating it with peace of mind.
Kokoxi blinked her eyes and stared at it all in a daze.
“I really ate the fruit…”
"She's so young..."
“Amazing…”
Afterwards, the boy looked more closely at his surroundings.
After making a simple spear using gravel, vines and sticks, he carefully walked out of the room.
Fortunately, the area that Kokoxi chose for him had almost no Warcraft activity.
After the boy became familiar with the nearby terrain, he further explored the outside world.
Opening a hidden treasure chest for the first time, discovering a monster for the first time, and realizing how weak you are.
The boy seemed to understand his situation quickly and immediately began to fight for survival.
Find water, build shelter, and make a series of living utensils.
He miraculously adapted to life in the maze, and from time to time he would observe the living habits of the monsters, trying to understand these creatures.
He never seemed to give up looking for a way to leave here and reach the outside world.
The boy's appearance made Kokoxi forget her troubles for a short time.
She developed a keen interest in this frighteningly independent child.
The boy mastered the language skills on his own without even being taught.
And, in more than one language.
He spent most of his time talking to himself, using a language that Kokosi couldn't understand.
Of course, Kokosi guessed it was some kind of language, even if she couldn't understand it at all.
However, the good news is that she knows the boy's name.
Meath.
One day, Mis went out exploring as usual and found a stranger in the temporary base where he had rested before.
This was the first time he saw other humans in the maze.
It was an old man holding a wand and holding a baby.
The old man sat back in a dark corner, blood gushing from multiple wounds on his body.
After hearing the baby crying, Xiaomi quickly discovered the bloodstains and slowly approached the corner.
A brilliant light came on, illuminating the entire secret room.
He saw real magic for the first time.
But the splendor is fleeting.
Perhaps the old man had run out of strength, or perhaps he saw the boy's appearance clearly and couldn't bear to kill him.
The magic had just been constructed when it collapsed on the spot.
After Xiaomi was sure that the other party had no ill intentions, he put down his weapon and stepped forward to stop the old man's bleeding and bandage his wounds.
When the old man learned that he lived alone in the maze, he instantly had the same idea as Cocoxi.
This child, who is less than ten years old, is actually more mature and stable than some adults.
The old man knew that he was seriously injured and even with the presence of a healing magician, he would be powerless to save him.
After entrusting his granddaughter named Nora to the boy he met for the first time, he gouged out his eyes.
This action frightened Little Miss.
Kokosi discovered that the old man used some kind of magic to make Little Miss lose consciousness.
Afterwards, the old man merged his own eyes into Little Miss's body as a thank you gift for agreeing to raise his granddaughter.
"The eyes of the devil?"
Even though there was a seal on those blood-red eyes, Kokoxi could still see their specialness at first sight.
After the eyes left the old man's body, their color became brighter and they emitted enormous magical power.
It was as if the seal had disappeared, revealing the original appearance of the Demon Eye.
Kokoxi didn't hesitate and cast a spell to repair the seal on her eyes.
The devil's eyes can influence the minds of humans.
She didn't want the boy to become the person she hated.
After burying the lifeless old man, Kokosi sent the two children back to a safe area.
From that day on, Little Miss's maze life was no longer lonely.
