Transmigrating And Becoming A Dragonling, I Was Picked Up By An Elven Queen - Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Grand Ceremony, Strange Egg!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Jadeite City, the mysterious city hidden under the Golden Forest, was also the capital of the elves. It, which was usually extremely mysterious, seemed to contain exceptionally abundant life force at this moment.

Under the night, the ancient central square of Jadeite City did not seem deserted. Instead, thousands of pious elves gathered in the square.

They faced the center of the square in unison. A pool of spring water was emitting a dreamy light as if the surrounding night had nothing to do with it. This was the birthplace of all elves, the Elf Spring.

To be able to make the elves, who usually did not like to gather, participate in such a huge event, it was none other than the Birth Ceremony of the elves once every ten years. They would welcome new members with the blessing of the Elf Spring!

However, at this moment, all the elves looked a little worried, which was a little incongruous with this supposedly festive event.

In front of the spring knelt three elves with two wings on their backs. As the three elders of the elves who were second only to the Queen, they naturally could not be absent from such an occasion. They could clearly see many shocking scars on the skin of the elf on the left. Of course, this still could not stop her beauty.

In front of the three elders, an elf, also glowing like a spring, was praying with her eyes closed. Her smooth skin was like jade, like someone who had come out of a dream with a hint of unreal beauty.

She was the supreme Elf Queen, Galadriel.

At this moment, if one looked carefully, one could see seven faint lights above the spring. At this moment, they were emitting vitality that belonged to life.

After a long time, Galadriel opened her eyes. Something flashed in her blue eyes, and the three elders behind her could not hide the anxiety on their faces.

According to the current situation, only seven new members would be born to the elves during this Birth Ceremony. This number was two fewer than ten years ago. Although two fewer seemed harmless, this was already a very dangerous signal to the current elves.

Three hundred and fifty years ago, the Abyss had suddenly descended. The actions of the dwarves had brought devastating disaster to this world. Death and chaos had corroded every corner of the Abyss that the Abyss reached. Those affected had either become the flesh and blood of monsters or fallen to become one of them.

The elves who lived deep in the Golden Forest were deceived by the traitor. When the Abyss swallowed the Golden Forest, Galadriel only noticed it. She led the elves to counterattack and joined forces with other races. Finally, after three years of effort, she successfully sealed the Abyssal Passage that the dwarves had accidentally dug out.

Although the elves were one of the stronger races in this world, they had lost half of their members to the Abyss. Moreover, this war also caused the Ancient Elven Tree to be eaten. The poison of the Abyssal monsters had been injected into the Ancient Elven Tree, causing irreparable serious damage. At that time, the elves had fallen into a desperate situation.

The Ancient Elven Tree was an important medium for the elves to communicate with the Elven Goddess, and they could reproduce and develop so prosperously only with the guidance of the Elven Goddess. Fortunately, Galadriel stood up and finally brought the future to the elves.

The Elf Spring came from the Ancient Elven Tree. Although Galadriel had severed its connection to the Elf Spring from the beginning of the erosion, a traitor had quietly stolen nearly half of the Elf Spring.

This time, the ancient tree had been damaged and there was no way to heal it until now. Not only did it cause the communication between the elves and the Elven Goddess to often go unresponsive, but it was also completely unable to replenish the Elf Spring. This directly affected the reproduction of the elves.

This was because, unlike other races, the birth of elves required the nurturing of the Elf Spring to bring new life to the elves every ten years. The Elf Spring, which could not be replenished, was deteriorating. In the past, more than three digits of elves were born every time, but now…

According to the Prophet Great Elder, Vieruodis, if they could not find a way to heal the Ancient Elven Tree within a hundred years, the Ancient Elven Tree would completely wither. At that time, the Elf Spring would lose its effect. Although elves had long lives, without the addition of new life, extinction was only a matter of time.

This was like an invisible boulder pressing down on the elves.

“The blessing of the Elven Goddess has arrived. I, the Elf Queen Galadriel, will welcome the new life of the elves with everyone!”

As Galadriel’s raised voice reached every corner of the square, all the elves perked up again.

Galadriel came above the spring. When she raised her hand, seven balls of light came to her. At this moment, seven solemn-faced elves walked out of the elves at the back. They were the seven elves chosen by Galadriel. They would be responsible for nurturing the new lives that were about to be born.

As Galadriel reached out and touched the first ball of light, it disappeared like snow. Then a pink baby appeared in her hand.

At this moment, an elf envoy who had approached knelt respectfully and raised his hands. Galadriel pressed her lips to the baby’s ear and sent a blessing. The future of the first elves was handed to the elf envoy beside her.

Galadriel was about to touch the second orb when she stopped abruptly. Then her hands went to the third orb.

Soon, the remaining balls of light finished opening the boxes one after another. Only the one at the beginning was still floating in the air, as if in a hurry. It actually took the initiative to float in front of Galadriel. The three elders behind him noticed this and could not help but look a little happy.

“Don’t be anxious. It’s almost your turn.”

Galadriel’s voice was gentle. Her fingers touched the ball of light, but it glowed a little brightly this time, like a moon that had been shrunk countless times.

Then a small baby appeared in the light and hugged Galadriel’s arm directly.

Galadriel smiled at the crescent mark on the baby’s forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thank you, benevolent Elven Goddess, for blessing us!”

All the elves present stared intently at the baby Galadriel was holding high. Their eyes were filled with excitement and joy. According to the performance of the baby just now, she should be a relatively rare High Elf. Galadriel and the three elders were also in this group.

High Elves had a natural bloodline advantage among the elves, and their individual abilities were relatively outstanding. They could basically be candidates for the position of elder or even Queen. No matter how hard ordinary elves cultivated, they could at most become elf envoys.

“I give this child the name Aurora.”

The fact that Queen Galadriel had personally given it a name was enough to show how much she valued this High Elf. Naturally, she needed to find a new suitable caregiver.

“Undine, you’ve been the one clearing the remaining darkness around the Golden Forest for hundreds of years. On behalf of the entire elves, I thank you and hope you can be her teacher.”

“I won’t disappoint you!”

The Enforcement Elder, Undine, got up and took Aurora. The baby was completely unafraid of the scars on her body. Instead, she leaned in kindly.

The Birth Ceremony ended here, and the appearance of the High Elf heaved a sigh of relief in everyone. However, they did not know when the next crisis would appear.

The elves dispersed one after another, but at this moment, Galadriel, who had already flown into the air, noticed that a dazzling light had appeared in the spring!

“Could there still be an unborn elf?”

She immediately turned around and flew back. The elves who had not completely left had all returned. All the elves’ hearts could not help but rise at this moment. This light was obviously not ordinary. If a second High Elf could be born…

Galadriel came to the spring. The light from the spring was weaker now. She reached into the spring under the expectant gazes of all the elves.

But when Galadriel touched the light in the spring, she couldn’t help but frown. She actually lifted an egg out of the water!
