My Players Are So Fierce

Chapter 2524 -842: Castia Secret History · Becoming Human_2

In this matter, she admitted she held 100% of the unavoidable responsibility.

However, Murphy did not leave Triss any opportunity to continue attacking his wife. He asked:

“So, Luna being able to resurrect after being killed by Salockdale and having her vampire heart extracted was due to her divine genes being accidentally activated by the Power of Midnight?”

“No!”

Triss firmly denied:

“What Luna inherited from me is the power of the Storm Queen, one of Avalon’s aspects, while Hero King Boris’s paternal genes strengthened her control over water and liquids. In the series of experiments regarding Avalon’s Divine Power, only one aspect can be inherited. In other words, Luna does not possess resurrection or the self-healing power of the Immortals.

That belongs to the domains of the Moon Girl and the Mother of Forest.

Therefore, I can tell you with certainty, Mr. Murphy, that Luna’s resurrection is unrelated to her divine lineage, and it must be a sign of another power at work.

I am still investigating this, but I suspect it is related to vampire powers.”

“Ah? How come I didn’t know the Power of Midnight had such formidable variations? This is resurrection! Even for vampires who feed on life force, it falls into the forbidden realms.”

Murphy shook his head and quipped.

Seeing that Triss couldn’t provide a reasonable explanation either, he no longer persisted on the issue but instead shifted the topic and asked:

“You just said you, as a first-generation divine hybrid, were born 600 years ago. What happened then that made the elves suddenly start advancing in such a high-end field like artificial humans?”

“The cause of this matter was an accident.”

Triss closed her eyes, speaking in a calm tone:

“Back then, the Druids intended to plant a seed so it would grow into a giant tree, serving as the sacred land for Druid heritage. But fate is fickle; they haphazardly chose a place to plant the seed, and once it took root, the Druids unexpectedly discovered a hidden Relic of Creation underground.

It was a ruin originating from the Eden District, under the codename ‘Life Greenhouse’ Project R-31 Base.

That base was very intact, much more so than the Relic of Creation we are currently at.

Our forebears found relics from the past Era there and interpreted a series of research results on divine powers. It’s said that during the Golden Era, researching divine spirits was also forbidden, hence this base was away from the main civilization of the past Era, fortuitously surviving the apocalypse.

Upon confirming these knowledge and test objects were harmless, our forebears began to explore deeply with a curious heart, and the subsequent events became quite predictable.

Everything went smoothly.

Even when the Druids hesitantly prayed to the divine spirits whether they should continue to cross the forbidden realm of ‘creation,’ the God of Nature did not object but expressed clear support, allowing them to experiment boldly.

Until my birth.

The cause and development of this matter need no elaboration; I express no personal opinion, but I think part of the reason why Avalon today demands my candidness is that he hopes to convey to you some secret truths known only to elves.

About the extremely dire consequences this ‘artificial human’ experiment led to in the elven civilization…”

The Ranger General paused.

She opened her eyes to look at Murphy and Triss, and the Blood Vulture Duke pursed his lips, saying:

“You mean, the split of the Shadow Elves over five hundred years ago was also a ripple effect from this experiment?”

“Yes, about the truth behind the Shadow Elves’ split.”

The Ranger General said without expression:

“This matter is actually unrelated to faith, at least not in the beginning; it merely stemmed from an experiment gone awry. It was rumored that Lady Spider was a dark entity that Avalon voluntarily split off to maintain the purity of his divine nature.

However, the truth is quite the opposite.

Avalon, at the outset, did not realize he had been contaminated by the subspace, which was hidden so deep it could even deceive a divine spirit’s self-awareness.

The cause was an unexpected, special divine reaction triggered during one of our god-spawn experiments in the Elf Kingdom, revealing the truth about the corrupted portion of Avalon’s power.

Avalon was quickly warned by his followers and confirmed his dire situation. Realizing he was being dragged into the abyss, he decisively split his symbolic nature, allowing Lady Spider to be born.

On that night when the dark aspect was split, when Lady Spider was born, that deep and dark divine reaction fed back into all related divine genes, affecting many innocent elves.

Prior to that night, Shadow Elves were just a collective term for the group serving as assassins, scouts, and dark psychics in elven society.

After that night, Shadow Elves truly emerged as a race.

As for the split of the Shadow Elves, that occurred decades after this event, and much like your teachings to Luna, Lady Spider’s teachings to the Shadow Elves were also too ‘successful.’”

“Wait!”

Murphy quickly caught the faint but significant detail that the Ranger General had glossed over.
