  Chapter 78 Seventy-eight: Queen Marist's Parade (please subscribe!)

  In the old world, the origin of the wood elves will not be repeated too much. Eslai lives and relies heavily on the magic forest. When they leave the forest, they lose their place of belonging, and their souls will be exposed to the eyes of the evil **** Slaanesh, making them coveted.

  If the evil **** Slaanesh had a recipe, the souls of humans and dwarves would be the equivalent of appetizers, and the souls of elves would be nothing less than the most precious pine mushrooms.

In order to avoid the gaze of the evil **** of chaos, each wood elf will carefully wear a small piece of the branches and leaves of the oldest magical tree in the forest area before leaving the forest, such as the age oak in the Athel Loren forest, the Lauren Loren forest Gold and Silver Sacred Tree.

   And the corruption of Chaos is constantly eroding the enchanted forest of Eslai. As time goes by, the situation becomes more and more serious, and the sacred tree slowly withers.

  Thousands of years ago, an elf **** prophesied that the moment the holy tree dies completely, that is, the end of the world will come.

Aisha, the goddess of elves, issued an oracle. She instructed the way to revive the forest, capture the heather, wake up the sleeping creatures, and use the vitality of the awakened creatures to heal the sacred tree. The huge vitality it contains will also attract all kinds of Coveted by the greed of the enemy, Eslay has continuously dispatched a large number of troops to retake the heather.

  The heather will grow over time, gradually radiating more vitality, and it is used to heal the sacred tree of the old world. Obviously, this heather near Oak Village is still in the growth stage.

". This is the general situation. If there is no accident, Olasif and the others will be able to clear the goblins gathered around the heather in three days." After the omission, look up at Laren

"Since you can easily deal with a group of forest goblins, then I wish Aislei victory in advance." The wood elves already have enough information, and there is no need for Laren to get involved. He raised his wine glass as if to celebrate: " Take back the heather as soon as possible, and drive away the annoying creatures from my territory as soon as possible."

After the end of the bandit suppression a month ago, Lailun did not want to wage wars frequently in a short period of time. So far, the territory has only expanded by two-thirds of the land, and the population has not kept up. Beastman.

   Military aid the wood elves to get back the heathland, not to mention the waste of money and the people, and to get a forest in order to deepen the relationship with the wood elves, the fool agreed.

   He never wanted to be taken advantage of, and foolishly rushed forward as bait.

   "Is this different from what we agreed on?" The female elf frowned and said calmly.

"What's the difference?" Laren put down his wine glass, stood up from the soft couch, and said in a slow manner: "The heather land has a limited effect on humans, and you Eslai need it more. I can provide your compatriots with a certain amount. Supplies, enough for you to use for three days, but after that, Esley must pay the corresponding compensation."

   Amber eyes flashed with cold light, and Katarina said solemnly: "The only thing that helps Esley is supplies? Naked deception!"

"Deception? Don't forget, your compatriots were not invited by me. They did not sign a non-aggression pact with the Earl of Draven, nor did they have the right of military passage. According to human law, Eslay entered my territory rashly. Behavior is equivalent to undeclared war."

The kingdom knight has his own considerations, and his starting point must be from the perspective of the empire: "The wood elves of the Athel Loren forest and the knight kingdom have signed the mutual watch regulation, they can cooperate with each other to fight against the enemy, including the empire, while Lauren Loren The Wood Elves of Lun and the Northern Province at best have 'common enemies' and are officially called 'friendly woodland neighbors', but our diplomatic posture is unclear."

Lailen spread his hands and said in a tough tone: "Sending an army in my own name obviously won't work. Oak Village belongs to the Earl of Delavan, and any military action must be approved by Earl Delavan, otherwise, my actions will be tantamount to Treason."

   "You!" The female elf stared at Laylen, her chest heaving.

The behavior of the    kingdom knight is not a temporary change, he has never agreed to the elves to fight together, it is purely a misunderstanding by Aisley.

   Katarina is the maid of Queen Marist and has a strong voice in the Woodland Council, but she cannot represent Queen Marist herself after all.

Originally, the Woodland Council approved sending more troops to support her for this heather, but Katarina only chose twenty Eternal Guards, sixty Woodland Scouts, and a low-rank Woodland Lord out of pride, to occupy them for a short period of time. The heather land is barely enough, but in the future, the life energy of the heather land will become more and more surging, and the tide of life will attract more enemies. By then, this small army of wood elves will definitely not be able to hold on. She needs human allies. That is, the Oak Village Army.

   And now, Laren is only willing to give part of the sustenance, which puts her in a dilemma.

"Even so, I have at least solved a lot of trouble for you." The female elf lowered her eyes, and the bright moonlight would be sad at this moment, she said in despair, "Could it be that you are so heartless that there is no room for negotiation? ."

"You are not the same as other wood elves, Katarina, I will never forget your contribution to Oak Village." Laylen couldn't help but softened his tone, "But it's only for your personal kindness, you can't In place of Lauren Loren Forest for all Eisley, if I think so, I owe more."

   "So, you still don't want to help me." Katarina looked even more lost, and pulled her hands tightly to the hem of her clothes, looking like she was about to burst into tears.

   "Why don't you ask about the conditions of aid?" Laylen said softly. As the time as a lord became longer, he became more and more fond of teasing others.

The    female elf raised her head and blinked smartly. She couldn't help but wonder about the strange question of the kingdom knight: ".Conditions?"

Lailun raised his brows at her and said slowly: "Although the non-aggression treaty and the military right of passage have not been signed, this does not mean that the normal trade between the two sides will also be cut off. Wood elves' handicrafts, exquisite gems and brewed Fruit wine and medicine are highly sought after by the old world aristocracy, and Earl Delavan has the greatest sincerity to sign a trade agreement with Eslay.”

"What does the trade agreement have to do with the heather? I don't." Katarina asked in a puzzled way. Her intuition told her that this was a trap. Just when she was about to refuse, Lallen reached out and interrupted: "Don't rush to cover it. The final conclusion, listen to me patiently."

The kingdom knight motioned for the female elf to sit on the chair and sat next to Katarina with a wicked smile: "The goods of great value can always attract peeps, what if a team of rogue knights robbery on the trader's road? Slater can't have any extra troops to guard it, but human beings have the strength and confidence to maintain the safety of the business road."

"This is actually a compromise. Under the guise of protecting the trade routes of the wood elves, Lord Draven and I will send enough troops to support Eslay in occupying the heather, so that it will not be implemented. , and will not violate the laws of the empire, and achieve a win-win situation.”

  The female elf had never learned these things in the forest. Lailun's words in front of her made her stunned. After a while, she recovered: "Win-win?"

   "The wood elves captured the heathland, and Earl Draven and I got the trade agreement we wanted. Isn't it a win-win situation~" Lailen smiled even more, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.

  If there is a mirror in the house, he will feel like he is kidnapping an ignorant girl.

"." Katarina pursed her red lips and thought for a while: "It sounds very reliable, but the trade between the woodland council and human beings is in the dark, and trade on the bright side will arouse the dissatisfaction of the woodland lords. ."

Wood elves are secretive and absolutely isolated. Although the elves of Laurent Loren are not as isolated from the world as the elves of Athel Loren in the south of the knight kingdom, they have always maintained a lukewarm attitude on the surface. After all, Ace Lai only saw the forest, and only reluctantly joined forces with the humans outside the forest when a strong enemy came.

Wood elves will trade with a few trusted imperial lords or nobles, such as the well-known Westland Archduke Emil von Corden. His chamber of commerce sells a large amount of wood elves medicines, wines, and handicrafts every year, earning money for him. Hundreds of thousands of imperial gold coins, but in the long years, after being deceived countless times by many "tricky" and "despicable" human beings, Eslai is more selective and cautious in choosing trade partners.

  In the eyes of the wood elves, greed and selfishness are synonymous with humans and dwarves, so these lonely guys will never trust human nobles easily, even an elector, a "vulgar" Nordland archduke.

  Lyren had already prepared a speech that it was difficult to enlighten the inflexible isolates, but there were always more ways than difficulties.

The knights of the kingdom kept smirking: "A small amount of trade will not arouse the dissatisfaction of the Woodland Council. I know that easy-to-understand words cannot persuade them. You can use an inconspicuous name, such as the parade of Queen Marist. , which makes sense and works perfectly under the laws of the Empire."

  Lyren remembered a well-known incident about the "circus" incident in the Kingdom of Kislev that happened more than ten years ago.

A touring circus of the north of Kislev, they started from the city of Errengrad, entered the Empire Osterland, and went all the way to the Duchy of Carcassonne in the Kingdom of Knights opposite the Grey Mountains. When you go to a city, you will stay for a few days, and you will leave countless joys. The security of the places you pass has improved a lot, and it even boosted the economy.

   became popular in the old world for a while, and became the favorite "sweet bun" of managers.

It was not until the third year after the tour that people found out that the circus belonged to the Tsarist family, and carried a huge amount of Kislev merchandise, sometimes as many as forty carriages full of goods, because of the tour name, They can enter the country with extremely low tariffs, earning more than 100,000 gold coins for the Kislev Shah royal family, causing the empire and the knight kingdom to lose tens of thousands of tariffs indirectly. When the big nobles calm down, the circus has long disappeared. trace.

   Katarina looked at Lallen with complex eyes. After weighing it, she nodded: "I will inform Queen Marist of your request. There is no guarantee of success, but I also have a condition."

  Laylen leaned closer to the female elf again: "Tell me."

   "Whether the Queen agrees or refuses, you must support Eisley to regain the heather."

   Amber eyes stared at him intently, Lailun exhaled and smiled lightly: "No problem, I'll repay you a favor."

".Um."

  Katarina looked out of the window. The moon was shining brightly on the York River. The Oak Village was lit up, and her Eslays were camping there.

  The female elf said softly, "I should go back."

   "Okay, I will let Earl of Draven come to Oak Village as soon as possible, and try to sign a trade agreement within three days," the kingdom knight said softly, the wood elves have a unique way of messaging, and there is no need to worry about them delaying the timing.

   "By the way, I forgot to mention, that beautiful stag suits you very well."

  Lairn clapped his palms and stood up: "Do you need to send it?"

   "Okay." Katarina nodded lightly.

  The knights of the kingdom led the war horses and crossed the long road, and the endless fields stretched to the other side of the river.

Adol Overland, a pot-bellied businessman, invested and built several workshops along the river, pulp washing and dyeing workshops, but these workshops are still being built slowly, because most of the lands and craftsmen are busy with labor and Renovating windmills, expanding barns, ramming dirt roads, and many of the craftsmen who built the workshops needed Overland to keep recruiting from Westerland and Rick.

   "Lauren." On the way, Katarina, who was also holding the stag, spoke out of nowhere. She fluttered her long brown hair and tucked it behind her small pointed ears.

   "I'm listening." The Kingdom Knight smelled the fresh air in the wild, and the cold wind blowing in front of him made him conscious.

  "When I wasn't there." Katarina seemed to be a little confused, she hesitated, but she still said her inner question: "Where does that human sorceress live?"

"Why do you ask this all of a sudden? Rosamina has been living in that sheltered mage tower, researching new magic potions all day long, and occasionally letting it out, and likes to play disappearing like you." Laren enjoyed the rare silence. , let him cherish every moment: "You seem to care about her very much?"

   Facing the smile of the kingdom knight, the female elf rolled her eyes: "I just want to know if the room I lived in was given to the sorceress."

"My longhouse has an exclusive room for everyone, dwarves, Luther Huss, Rosamina, and some elf who likes to be angry. No matter when, Oak Village will always have a place for you." Larendan said.

  The knight of the kingdom looked at the sky, the dark night sky, a shooting star, and the constellation Aegir flashed extra. He remembered a certain **** trapped in the magic space.

  Perhaps at this moment he is staring at himself, at the twinkling stars in the sky, or some other **** is watching him, Erson, Uric, Tar?

  Lyren shook his head, putting aside the random thoughts in his mind.

   The only thing he didn't expect, amber eyes kept looking at him, full of softness.

   Ask for tickets and subscriptions!

  It's June 1st, I wish you a happy holiday, and I wish the Hammer to be eighteen forever.
