When the elves entered the hall, Mingshu was the last one to fly in, and hurriedly mixed into the large group.

There is a stone pillar platform in the center of the hall. Under the guidance of an attendant, the elves landed on the pillar platform and waited temporarily.

The flight never stopped, Ming Shu sat down on the edge of the stone pillar to rest, her transparent wings retracted slightly.

He quietly raised his head and looked at the figures in the hall.

There were three people in total, sitting on the chair above, all of them looked young.

Mingshu's gaze flicked over their faces one by one, gradually becoming confused and uncertain.

All three of them have a little resemblance to Yuan Chen, but only a little bit.

In the last dungeon, Xiuwen and Xiyu not only look alike, but also have seven or eight points of similarity with Yuan Chen, so when entering the new dungeon, Ming Shu also takes this as the criterion for judging.

But according to this standard... the three people in front of me may not be the same.

The one most like him should be the one sitting in the middle, with an indifferent and cold expression, extremely handsome features, wearing a black robe, the edges of the collar and cuffs are embroidered with gold thread, looking very dignified.

The prototype of the dragon clan is one of the largest creatures. Even in human form, sitting on a chair with a tall and straight figure at a distance, it still has a full sense of oppression for an elf the size of a palm.

Ming Shu lowered his head after just one glance, and heard the elves around him whispering.

"Is that His Royal Highness the Dragon Clan?"

"Yes, I heard that he doesn't like elves, so he still doesn't have guardian elves by his side."

Ming Shu frowned lightly. It was written in the plot that all dragons will have a guardian elf since birth, including His Royal Highness the Dragon Clan.

Is it because the plot has been updated too little and the important information has not been disclosed, or is the current development deviated from the original plot from the very beginning?

If it's the latter... Ming Shu raised his head again and looked at His Royal Highness Long Clan in front of him.

Apart from the appearance, His Royal Highness Long's temperament is also similar to Yuan Chen's, especially when Yuan Chen has no expression on his face and looks cold.

But this might just be his illusion, and if he wants to be sure, he needs to get in touch further.

It was His Highness who said that he was not interested in raising an elf just now.

Ming Shu thought to himself, if he was really Yuan Chen, he would definitely not reject him.

The main task is also related to His Highness the Dragon Clan, and he needs to be selected among this group of elves.

Mingshu looked around, none of these elves looked like players, and the dungeon should be for a single player.

Among the elves, it seems that only Mingshu was "born" at the latest. Although the other elves came to the palace for the first time, they knew a lot about it.

"Is the one with red hair the Second Highness? I like the color of his hair, like flower petals."

"But Second Highness has her own elf..."

The elves are small, their voices are low, they are simple and lively, as long as they don't say anything that shouldn't be said, the attendants on the side will turn a blind eye.

From their mouths, Ming Shu learned that there are five His Royal Highnesses of the Dragon Clan, and the one who has no guardian elves for the time being is the Fifth Highness.

His Royal Highness is the youngest, but his bloodline is the most powerful abyssal dragon. It is rumored that he will succeed the only king of the dragon clan.

And the other dragons in the hall, including several attendants, are accompanied by an elf, some are quietly sitting on the master's shoulder, some are waving to the elves here, and another elf is struggling to hold the heavy teapot, He poured tea for the Second Highness beside him.

"Will His Royal Highness choose me?" An elf clutched the hem of his clothes nervously, and said anxiously: "If you are sent back, you will have to water the flower fields."

The number of elves is far more than that of the dragons. If they fail to sign a contract with the dragons, their lifespan is only as long as two flowering periods.

So if they are not selected, they can only go back to the flower field and wait for new dragons to be born, or to be selected again when other dragon elves die, otherwise they will run out of lifespan and wither.

"A talking bird?" It was another Third Highness who spoke, and he shook his head with a smile, "Then you have to choose one. If you really don't like it, just keep it in a cage."

As a giant dragon, it seems that there is no need for a little elf to guard it, but this is the tradition of the dragon clan.

Compared with "Guardian", the elves are more like a dispensable little pet, they can't help much, and the sense of presence is not very strong.

[A new plot update has been detected, do you want to check it immediately? 】

The system prompt sounded, and Mingshu clicked on it immediately.

【Plot reminder】:

[The fifth highness of the dragon clan, Si Ning, is a giant dragon of the abyss with a very rare bloodline. When he was born, the king of the dragon clan carefully selected a guardian elf for him, and the guardian elf accompanied the fifth highness until he grew up. 】

[Because of the rare bloodline, His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness suffered a lot of plots and dangers when he was a child, but these were resolved one by one by the guardian elves. His Highness the Fifth Highness likes his guardian elves very much. 】

[But the elf doesn't like His Highness, and even resents it.He is an elf with a sound mind. Why should he take care of a dragon forever from birth? He was forced to protect the fifth prince when he was young. He didn't like the identity of the guardian elf, nor did he like the contract signed with the fifth prince. He hated this Born into an unequal relationship. 】

【So gradually, the elf treated His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness badly in private. He didn't have a respectful attitude and a humble attitude, and sometimes he was perfunctory and excessive. 】

[The pure and kind Fifth Highness doesn't care about these things, he thinks that his guardian elf just has a bad temper. 】

Sure enough... the plot has indeed shifted.

In reality, His Royal Highness, the Fifth Prince, still doesn't have his own guardian elf, and no matter how you look at it...it doesn't even have anything to do with the words "simple and kind".

Just entered the dungeon, and the development of the situation is different from the original plot. Ming Shu has never experienced this kind of situation, so he feels faintly disturbed.

He opened the system panel and found three rows of progress bars in the corner.

They are "favorability level" and "acceptance value", and there is another line of description that is garbled, not sure what it means.

[Ding dong - side mission released]

[Task 10: npc [Sining]'s [favorability] reaches [-] or more]

There is no specific task description, only the conditions for the eventual completion of the task.

The time limit for completing the task is two days, but before that, Ming Shu has to be selected by Si Ning, otherwise the main task will fail.

"Let them all come over, let the fifth brother have a look," said the Second Highness who was sitting on the other side, and took the teacup from the elf's hand, "Maybe this time there will be some good luck."

The teacup was filled with scalding hot water, and the elf's arm holding the teacup was red, and his cheeks were also smothered by the heat, but he didn't dare to say a word, and quickly caught the teacup and put it on the table, and continued to fill it up.

Mingshu saw it, and had a general understanding of the relationship between the dragon clan and the guardian elves.

The attendants guarding the stone pillar responded and led the elves there.

The elves were apprehensive and looking forward to it, one of them flew in front, and was the first to come to Si Ning, showing a smile: "Hello, Fifth Highness."

Si Ning raised his eyes and glanced over, the elf's body trembled inexplicably, and he backed away in fear.

Seeing that Si Ning quickly looked away, obviously not liking it, the attendant quickly waved his hand to signal for another one.

Ming Shu also wanted to let Si Ning see him earlier, but he couldn't squeeze the other elves, and he couldn't fly fast enough.

It wasn't until Si Ning took a second look at all the elves in front that it was Ming Shu's turn to be the last one.

If he is not selected, all the elves will have to be sent back, and his mission will not be completed.

Ming Shu took a deep breath, flew closer slowly, and called out cautiously: "Your Highness..."

Si Ning's patience was about to run out, and he was about to make a cutscene, saying that he didn't like all elves.

The last elf flew over, and he subconsciously cast his gaze, his gaze slightly fixed.

This elf was beautiful, more beautiful than any elf he had ever seen.

Her long silver hair hangs down to her collarbone, her delicate and delicate facial features look indistinguishable from male and female, amber pupils, and the simple white clothes on her body make her complexion fairer and more tender, and the two pairs of wings behind her are actually transparent.

Most of the elves are blond, with green or blue wings, and wear different colored clothes, like a butterfly or a bird with bright fur.

But Mingshu was different, he was more... pleasing to the eye.

Si Ning's gaze stayed on Ming Shu for longer than expected, and everyone noticed a little wavering in him.

His Highness raised his eyebrows: "Is this the only one?"

Ming Shu was very nervous, he accepted Si Ning's gaze, his tired wings struggled to stay in midair.

He hoped that Si Ning was Yuan Chen. According to the characteristics of the first two dungeons, Si Ning should also be Yuan Chen.

Hearing the Second Highness's words, Ming Shu thought it meant that Si Ning chose him, and was overjoyed, and instinctively flew towards him.

Si Ning frowned at this moment, raised his hand and waved Kai Mingshu.

He was not strong, and a gust of invisible wind pushed Ming Shu back. Ming Shu was flustered and wobbled to stabilize her figure.

Seeing this, His Highness the Third Prince winked at the attendant, motioning him to send the other elves away, and said, "It's rare that Fifth Brother likes it, and I think this one is pretty good too."

If Si Ning didn't choose a guardian elf this time, and his father would get angry again, then it would only be his two "useless" brothers who would be punished.

So he also saw that Si Ning's attitude had changed, so he directly helped him make a decision, deal with today first, and sign the contract with Si Ning himself.

Si Ning withdrew his gaze from Ming Shu, his tone unchanged: "When did I say I want this one?"

However, the attendants quickly took the elves away, leaving only a confused and lost Mingshu.

Ming Shu looked at the indifferent Si Ning, and pursed his lips.

His Highness rubbed his chin and looked over, his eyes fixed on his face: "But this elf is not bad... Fifth brother doesn't want it, why don't you give it to me?"

The elves can't change their shape, they are always only this big, the Second Highness wants to leave Mingshu, most likely he just fancy a pretty thing.

But if he wants to sign a contract with Mingshu, he must first abandon the original spirit.

Hearing this, the elf next to His Highness the Second Highness was trembling with fright, and his little face turned pale.

Once the contract is generated, it cannot be canceled or changed unless the guardian spirit dies.

"What are you doing?" His Highness gave him a hard look, "These batch of elves were selected for the fifth brother, besides, you already have one."

He hinted to the Second Highness not to mess around, Si Ning's things are not to be touched.

The Second Highness pretended not to hear, looked at Ming Shu who was not far away, and waved to him: "Come here, let me take a closer look."

Ming Shu hesitated, but looked up at Si Ning in front of him.

He had no other choice, he had to let Si Ning stay with him for the sake of the mission.

Ming Shu shook his heart, flapped his wings and flew over, hugging Si Ning's wrist.

He struggled to open his arms, almost couldn't hold them, and struggled to grab the edge of the cuffs.

Si Ning didn't expect Ming Shu to act like this. He raised his hand and frowned: "Release."

The Second Highness at the side was silent, and Ming Shu ignored him, which made him a little unhappy, but at the same time, he noticed that Si Ning didn't seem to be really angry.

Ming Shu hugged Si Ning's sleeve tightly, and boldly climbed up his wrist, before hugging a finger.

The thickness of his fingers was just right for him, and he could hug them firmly. Mingshu hung directly on Si Ning's palm.

"Your Highness, let me stay by your side," he tried his best to express his intentions, but said incoherently: "I... I am very obedient, I will not disturb you, nor will I cause trouble..."

The silver-haired elf tightly hugged Si Ning's fingers and did not let go. His expression was flustered and apprehensive, and there was a hint of grievance that he was afraid of being rejected. His small body seemed to be broken if he squeezed it lightly, and his delicate cheeks were pressed against his fingertips. , as light and soft as a feather.

Si Ning's raised hand froze slightly, without saying a word.
