"All in all, His Majesty Emperor Otto already has a large-scale expedition in his hands, the most needed...... Grain! It can be said that the soldiers are well fed and their morale is high, and if they want to solve the Orgrimmar problem once and for all, or just 'simply' beat the orcs to a disability that they can never recover, this is the best chance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoSpring next year...... No, it's been waiting so long anyway, it doesn't matter if it's a few more months. It should be said that after the reclamation in the spring is over, the second round will officially begin. Lu Xi shrugged: "In one year, His Majesty Otto has established countless settlements and cultivated farms in the Great Lakes region, and has immigrated nearly a million people. It would be a pity not to plant the fields in the spring of next year. ”

Tidlight nodded, agreeing with Lu Xi's judgment: "...... Well, with that, you have three months left. In three months, you're ready to take that rabble to join the coalition, saying it's to fulfill the obligations of the Nord allies, but in fact it's to kill the bloodthirsty king, right? ”

"He is the only enemy I can find so far, so naturally it is impossible to let him go." Lu Xi said as a matter of course: "In addition, I need to master an army in the official face, which is very good for the future." ”

"The orcs have suffered heavy losses under the Black City, but they have not lost enough to the point where they have completely lost the power to fight back. Dragon's Heart' Asog is a rare male lord of the orcs in a hundred years, or in other words, your triumph under the Black Man City has cleared the constraints of the race for him, allowing him to strengthen the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the orc tribes unprecedentedly. Once the war starts, it will inevitably be a fierce battle. Even if the Nords have a clear advantage, it is not a sure win...... Xiao Lu Xi, the group of recruits under your command want to participate in such a stage in three months? I can't see your sanity here. What's more, as you said, the Bloodthirsty Lord Parkens has returned to Orgrimmar. ”

"That's the best news. If he doesn't go back, Orgrimmar's orcs might be even more tricky. Lu Xi smiled: "...... Besides, Sister Tido, in three months' time, of course, that rabble will not be able to become an iron army (in the realm of common sense), but once they are brought to see blood, they will become an undefeated and victorious army, do you believe it? ”

"I believe you're going crazy now......" Sister Tido sighed, "But, even if you're crazy, I have to support you?" Family is family, Xiao Lu Xi is Xiao Lu Xi, right? ”

"Don't show this expression, my son owes gambling debts, and I have to pay back the money for me if I smash the pot and sell iron!" Lu Xi shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "In short, I need 5,000 Nolda Wood Elf soldiers. You need to arrive in the Great Lakes by March next year, meet with me, and be under my command. ”

“…… I thought you wanted money. After you left, the Chamber of Commerce has been steadily moving forward with the rules and plans you left behind, and it is still possible to get a million gold and Austrian baht...... But the army is a different story! Sister Tido was stunned for a full three seconds before she smiled distressedly: "You know, little Luxi, the army of the wood elves has not appeared outside the Norda Forest for more than five hundred years. ”

"Yes, so the orcs have almost forgotten the fear of being dominated by the master hunters. Even the Bloodthirsty King Parkens seems to have forgotten that in the War of Enlightenment, it wasn't Emperor Knoeus the Great who was the first to injure his Dharma Body, but the arrow you nailed to his head. Lu Xi said: "Sister Tido, don't you want to come out and make a move?" ”

Tiddelit groaned for a moment, and glanced deeply at Lu Xi, who could see in her eyes that she was shaking, struggling, and eager to try, but after a flash, it regained the calm that had always been unwavering. She shook her head and directly refused: "You know, Xiao Luxi, I haven't touched anyone for more than a thousand years, of course, not now." ”

"Really?" Although Lu Xi was not surprised, he still sighed in disappointment.

“…… The Druid Order needs a new Chief Archelder. The elders who are currently qualified to take over, although they are highly respected and powerful, are all from Tifario's time. They felt that instead of choosing a transitional candidate, it would be better to choose a young and energetic candidate in between, so as to maintain the stability of the Order for a long time. She spoke, as if she was explaining.

…… The transition period of the elves is already an era for humans.

"Tsk, according to the elders, aren't I still very young now?" She raised her eyebrows, as if she was still a little confused about what era she belonged to.

"If you use Transfiguration to hide the characteristics of the elves, you will go out and say that my sister has a human trust." Lu Xi said casually. Of course, his sycophants were successful, and he saw the smile in the other party's eyebrows so quickly.

"So, I have submitted my resignation to the new Pope, and I am going to resign as cardinal, and I will recommend Martina of Twilight? Valinnor took over. In order to maintain the independence of the Druid Order, it would not be appropriate for me to be the head of the Order and then to hold the position of priesthood under the Pope. Anyway, I've always been a cardinal who plays soy sauce, and I've been in this position for 500 years, but I haven't even been to Cloudsdale a few times. Sure enough, such an important position should still be reserved for more dedicated people. ”

A cardinal is the highest priest of a certain Holy Spirit goddess most of the time, but this is not a requirement. You know, in some special periods in history, the most important time in the College of Cardinals was as many as twenty-seven.

She paused, and then said, "In addition, I will keep the position of the High Priestess of the Goddess of Life for the time being, after all, this is a position that has special significance to the Norda Elves. When Ni was fully grown, I gave her the position. During this time with you, Xiao Lu Xi, heh, she has grown up so much that I am a little dizzying, this shouldn't have to wait a few years, right? It's really strange, why did the girl suddenly open up? It's obviously a stupid girl who is confused and heartless, and the roots and courage are not bad, and the others are almost useless. ”

"Is that okay for your own sister?" Lu Xi just complained but didn't refute, he had to admit that by the standards of the mortal dust elf royal descendant, Nicole really couldn't be considered smart, especially compared to Sister Tido.

"When I return to Norda, I will also enter the Ice Crystal Hall for retreat...... I'm still a little bit behind Tifario in terms of my current strength. At the very least, as a Grand Druid Elder, even if he can't turn into a dragon, Gai Randall's Elemental Legion, Infinity Stone Illusion, and Nature's Lord Realm must be firmly mastered. Occasionally, you still need to work hard to do your homework. Oh, I suddenly remembered that back then, it was time to accompany Paan to take the adventurer's career level. It's okay to be in actual combat, and you can find a way to pass the imagination method, but there is actually a written test. We're preparing cheat sheets while we are writing books, although in the end it's useless. ”

Indeed, if it is really by the standard of the mortal dust elf royal descendant with golden blood, Sister Tido is really very young, if she is really willing to calm down and break through the retreat, her strength will definitely be one step closer, right? Although, she has actually been in the realm of legends for hundreds of years.

"As for the army you want. Little Luxi, I'll let them arrive on time. I'll give you 10,000 people, and they'll all be the best elites! You've led them to the mall and they've been invincible, and now, they're probably willing to do the same...... Let you take them to the battlefield and be invincible for once, right? After all, they are elves, and they need money, and possibly honor. ”

"At least I'm not going to make a loss-making deal." Lu Xi said calmly: "I don't dare to guarantee that we will be invincible, but it is not a big problem for the orcs to start standing in two groups as long as they hear the shouts of the black panther and the sound of the iron feather arrow breaking through the air in the future." Of course, my goal is, after all, to bring back the first rank of Parkens...... Sister Tido, I can't guarantee that everyone will make it back to Norda alive. ”

"If you can do it, even if everyone doesn't come back, Noorda will still cheer for you, however, as your family, I want you and as many people as possible to come back safely, it's more important than anything else." The supreme leader of the political and religious affairs of the Norda Elves groaned for a moment, and there was an inexplicable trace of trance and fragility in his voice. However, she hid it well, so that Lu Xi couldn't help but wonder if what she saw was an illusion.

"Little Luxi, what if...... I mean, if you had one more chance, would you be willing to come to Norda with Nicole? ”

“…… Say yes or no, when I was brought back, the girl didn't ask me for my opinion at all. Lu Xi almost burst out laughing: "However, it is certain that I really have nothing to regret." Sister Tido, I'm very happy, so far, I'm very happy......"

"Come back soon. Norda is your home. Tired children should always go home. ”

"Well, I'll be back soon, by all ......"

Tidlet? Lin Ge has always been a very decisive person, or he wants to be a person, and he said goodbye immediately after the funeral, and he didn't seem to be ready to meet Lu Xi's important friends and wings. Actually, that's what she is. The High Priestess of the Goddess of Life, the legend of the Qiming War, the last generation, she was actually quite arrogant, indifferent and even cold and impersonal in the eyes of the public. Most people who have seen her true face have never seen her smile or heard her jade voice in their lives, and even in formal diplomatic occasions facing envoys, they only have the simplest greetings. She will only smile in front of certain people.

Some high-elf aristocrats who may have table tennis in their minds think that "His Royal Highness Tidlight represents the noble mortal elf king, the bearing that a great golden race should have", but Lu Xi knew that in a sense, Sister Tido was actually the same as Lim, who would only regard the things she didn't know and didn't bother to take care of as meaningless tomatoes and potatoes.

"Only you would think that Her Royal Highness Tidlight is an amiable big sister, right? In most rumors, she has always been cold and high, and her temper is particularly perverse and even harsh. If you accidentally offend her, you will most likely be thrown by the wood elves into a dense forest somewhere in Norda to be used as flower fertilizer. I remember that in the book "The Forest, the Panther and the Witch" published by Neosfia, the cold and majestic queen of the forest seems to be based on Her Royal Highness Tidlet. Well, although it's not a villain, it's considered to be much more terrifying than the villain of the Abyss Demon. "I remember a long time ago, Sai Xiliu said this to Lu Xi.

…… Therefore, rumors are rumors, and if novels can be counted, they can starve those conscientious young historians to death. Anyway, no matter how the rumors outside worked, Lu Xi definitely didn't take it to heart.

Sister Tido's promised Noorda army, consisting of elite Black Panther Hunters and War Dancers, will arrive in the Great Lakes region next year and fight under Lu Xi, and before that, the training of what she calls a "rabble" is also continuing.

Three months is indeed too tight to really turn a group of civilians into elite warriors, let alone drag them up to the Great Wasteland to fight the fierce orcs. The higher-ups of the Fourth Legion probably thought so, however, Lu Xi had completely different opinions.

"Strictly speaking, we don't need to make them fearless at all. Just make them fear the whip in your hands, more than the mace and machete of the orcs, and oh, the smelly fangs. ”

The officers looked at each other, and for a moment there was a feeling of uncertainty, but to put it bluntly, they felt that there were too many places to refute, and they didn't know where to start refutating for a while. Of course, there was no way to refute it, so I had to do as the commander asked.

It was the third day after the funeral of Grand Elder Tifario, and there was still a week to go before the official opening of the Dwarven Beer Festival. In this year, there are too many important people left in the world, but perhaps because of this, the living must not disrupt their pace because of the dead, right? Especially the dwarves of Hearthcastle. Elves are a tradition-oriented race, and they may spend tens or hundreds or even thousands of years grieving the death of their friends and relatives; But the dwarves are more focused on the present and the future. They will grieve, but it is precisely because of their grief that they need to live happily, so that their deceased relatives and friends who have gone to heaven can see their happiness. As a result, the once-in-a-decade Hearthburger Beer Festival not only does not plan to stop at all, but is preparing more and more grandly.

However, compared to the increasingly cheerful and relaxed atmosphere of the Furnace Fort, in a wilderness about a day's walk from this thousand-year-old dwarven capital, a human military camp that has been camped here for nearly a month exudes an aura that is different from the Furnace Castle and even all the surrounding air.

The long-lost Sky Rose flag is fluttering on the highest flagpole in the center of the barracks, this is the legendary flag of the Federation, the "strongest army" and "victorious army" that has disappeared for more than a century. However, what did not quite match this prestigious military flag was this group of recruits who exuded a rabble and herbivorous masculinity, lined up in a fairly neat queue in the cold wind and began to train...... According to the commander, "I don't need you to train them to be an iron army that can really fight the enemy, but I must train them to be tools that can reflexively accept orders from the superiors." "That's enough over there.

So, the chief officer of the Fourth Legion, who had just returned to the garrison from the Hearthfort, Sehirus? Major Moore, what he heard was a rough voice like this.

"Listen, you worms! If it were on the battlefield, you worms would have been crushed by the enemy on the battlefield. The so-called worms! If you don't have any brains to connect to the command, I'm going to throw you into a dung pit!" A burly bearded man in a federal officer's uniform with the rank of lieutenant roared.

"Don't cry, don't laugh, you are not human at all, you are a tool that exists for killing, a tool that has no use value, and there is no meaning to exist!" A man of the same size, but a little leaner, and a soldier's beard added in the same loud voice. Then, as if noticing something, he rushed into a queue like a gust of wind, pulling out a soldier who was at least half a head shorter than him.

"Private Mundsen, it's you again! Why are hippie smiley faces in the queue? ”

"Ah, I...... I didn't ......."

"How many times have you said that when you speak to an officer, you have to call your commander!" The man with a ruffian face seemed to want to show the bearing of a "chief", but his fierce face was more like a gangster glaring at the trembling little people and suppressing his throat and saying, "What are you looking at?" "The next step is probably to "take out your wallet" or something, right?

He didn't ask his soldier for a wallet, but then he said something that made the soldier even more devastating: "Private Mondsen, hippie smiley in the queue, no honorifics to the commander, both crimes are punished!" Ten whips! Get ready! ”

This young man, who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, was thin and weak, and obviously some malnutrition, and was suddenly paralyzed by fright. However, before he could open his mouth to plead, several strong men had already pulled him out of the queue, carried him to the big tree next to him, and tied him directly to the big tree with three strokes and two blows, exposing his back.

The long whip "snapped" at the young man's body, bringing up a shocking bloodstain and a terrifying scream.

There was a small uproar among the rabble, but when the third whip went down, and the screams of the soldier named Mondson were already like a fat pig pressed on the slaughterhouse, the commotion subsided inexplicably, and their standing posture suddenly became more standard, and they really had a bit of elite military style. At least the strictness and discipline of the queue is already much better than the 90% of the world's elite soldiers (the so-called feudal era).
