The towering palace city, the gorgeous and elegant palace, the solemn and solemn hall, Jiang Ning sat on the throne and looked at the data in his hand. This is everything that happened in Iswell during the years he was gone, including the progress of the project, the degree of materials, the distribution of personnel, and the daily loss of materials, all of which are readily available, and the records are accurate and detailed, which shows that the noble regency council established at the beginning during this period of time has indeed done a very good job.

Nodding, Jiang Ning put down the information in his hand and turned to look at the magnificent palace. The characteristic style of the elves is known for its simple three-dimensional elegance. Including columns, large frescoes of the interior dome, and many other types of art buildings. The palace is beautifully decorated, and it is unusually ornate and sturdy. And the head of the fire demon he brought with him hung above the back of his throne, so that everyone who came to his palace in the future could clearly see the head of the fire demon. Although, hanging such a trophy head does not seem to be in keeping with the style of the elves in the royal palace. However, Jiang Ning knows very well that such a practice can greatly deter the ill-intentioned guys, and can also improve the cohesion and pride of the entire clan.

The simple analysis of the arrogance of the elves is roughly only a few places, one is the first-born children of Iluvita, after all, in addition to Vera and Maia, they are the first intelligent race in the world, plus Iluvita's love and immortal life. This gives the elves ample advantage in terms of time, and they don't have to be busy and on the go like dwarves or humans all day long. They have plenty of time to plan their long lives and learn whatever interests them. The second point is that the elves are highly civilized, and humans, ents (treants), including dwarves, have all learned from the elves. Human beings are the students of the elves, and many of their knowledge and the rudiments of civilization come from the teachings of the elves. In addition, the High Elves of the First Age were generally more powerful than their descendants in later generations, in every way. After all, although humans and dwarves also joined the elves to resist Morgoth during the First Age, the main force against Morgoth was still the elves.

Other than that, neither dwarves nor humans have a chance of winning against Morgoth. This is true in every aspect, weapons, civilizations, etc., and Morgoth's legions are no threat at all. Only the elves defeated Morgoth's army again and again, and until they completely besieged Morgoth's lair fortress Angban. This is also the capital that the elves are proud enough of, because when it is their turn to fight alone, few races can pose a threat to the elves, let alone the first era in the era of civilization and barbarism? Humanity has just emerged from obscurity and has not yet risen completely, and the dwarves are no different.

In this First Age, there was no race that could pose any threat to the High Elves, not even the slightest. And the only people who can pose a threat to the elves are their kindred, and besides that, the dark forces that belong to Morgoth. Although after the birth of the sun and the moon, the first age and the third age in the future, the protagonist will gradually shift to the human body. However, during the First Age, the elves were well-deserved overlord-level leaders, although they were few in number and had not yet spread throughout the west, and the land east of the Shire was inhabited only by a single group led by Jiang Ning. In addition, the footprints of the elves are only found in the northern, western and eastern parts of Doriath. The vast Western territory has not yet been completely occupied, let alone the whole of Middle-earth.

However, although the number of elves is very small, in the First Age is this period, no race in the whole of Middle-earth can really pose a threat to the elves, even if they are united.

Visiting some of the city's layouts and buildings, Jiang Ning wandered around the large construction site to supervise the dwarves' workmanship. Oversaw the overall progress of the project, although the population was small, the progress was slow, and until now his palace has not been completed. In other words, the whole city has not been completed much except for the outer wall of the fortress, which was the first to be completed, that is, the inner wall of the inner fortress. The buildings inside the city, even more so, were almost unfinished, except for the roads, but only the crossroads that ran through the four directions. Since then, no small roads, buildings, parks, and other public places have been completed, and countless dust has been raised throughout the city day and night. Let the scruffy dwarves become more sloppy, and the elegant elves become dusty.

The dwarves don't care about this at all, they don't care much about their appearance. They are naturally very good at enduring hardships, and they are constantly digging tunnels every day, excavating all kinds of minerals buried in the mountains. The gold that was excavated was forged into gold coins and various ornaments, and even later it was very luxurious to cast huge statues of great men in gold. In addition, the dwarves are not overly concerned about the situation in the outside world. They will only ponder their own one-third of an acre, as long as the outside world does not provoke them. At this point, the elves of the future are the same as the dwarves, only the second son of Iluvita, who causes trouble all day and night, expands his territory in all directions. In case of disputes, the first subconsciously in the heart to measure the strength of the other party, if that is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, if strong, then everyone sit down together to discuss.

On this day, he was making his rounds around the city. Suddenly, Hassan hurried over to him and informed him that some of the Treants were out asking to see him.

"Ent?" Jiang Ning was surprised, "Yavanna's creation, the protector of trees." Why did these forest spirits come to our land? He thought about it, went outside, and decided to ask these ents what the purpose of coming here was. As he arrived, he saw several tall Entes, half-crouched on the ground under the watchful eye of the elves, and talking kindly to them. They communicated in the language of the elves, and Ente's language was very slow, and it took most of the day to greet each other.

"Forest Spirit, the creation of Viriavana, I welcome you on behalf of the Elves of Iswell!" Jiang Ning strode forward and walked towards this group of tall ents.

An old Ent, who was the leader, stood up, he slowly walked towards Jiang Ning, and stood still a few meters away from him, and then saluted slowly, "Respected Elf King, the tree people greet you. ”

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, the magic ring in his right hand lit up slightly, and the invisible force held him up, as if he didn't see the surprised gaze of the tree man, he said: "The spirit of the ancient forest came to my land, I don't know what happened?" The Treants spoke their language to each other, and then the leading Treant spoke, "Ancient is a word we dare not take before you, the Elven King. He said, "Since the creation of the Treants by Yavanna, our duty has been to protect the forests, but the elves, who are also children of nature, have cut down so many trees. Therefore, it is necessary for us to warn you! ”

Nodding slightly, indicating understanding, he said, "So that's what happened!" He continued: "We have traveled tens of thousands of miles to get here. We have obtained our ideal living land as a place for our people to multiply. And the land under my feet is the best, but there are many trees, and if you don't plan the city, you will inevitably be invaded by evil! Therefore, I cut down the trees and forests here in order to obtain a wide area of land for survival. I am well aware of your duties, and I assure you that the land under our feet is sufficient for us to survive and reproduce, and we will not cut down forests for no reason. ”

The Treant nodded, and he said, "We believe in the Elven King's promise, and since that's the case, the Treant is leaving!" Jiang Ning said a few polite words, and then the group of tall tree protectors returned to the Fagong Forest in twos and threes. As for why the tree people didn't come to warn them at the beginning, Jiang Ning guessed that it was probably because the tree people were discussing with each other at that time! The consequence of deliberating in their language was that it was only after several years that the content was finished, and the results of the discussion were reached, and these tree people arrived. Jiang Ning couldn't help but want to laugh just thinking about it!

The arrival of the Treants was only a minor episode, and while Yavanna's creations were tall and powerful, they were relatively slow to move. This is especially true of the older the Treant. However, they spend most of their lives sleeping, which causes many treemen to not feel it even if they are cut down. However, for a long time, even though most of them were asleep, they could recognize the sleeping clansmen and their friends in each area when they woke up. This kind of memory, even when they were a seed, can clearly remember anything that happened at that time.

It's a pity that they are just tree people, and if they were humans, then the consequences of this talent would be incalculable. Good memory, if human beings get it, it means that the emergence of talents and geniuses within the human race is no longer rare. Rather, they are multiplied, and humanity will use them in warfare!

After all, these are just speculations, and there are many human beings who have such excellent memory skills, but they are only a minority. The rules of the world lie in balance, and many of us know and know this. Therefore, there will always be various shortcomings in human beings, but these are both disadvantages and advantages. Human beings will continue to find ways to make up for their own shortcomings, and the final result is that the strength of the entire human race is improving step by step, and finally becoming the absolute protagonist of the whole world. And the race that was once stronger than humans has also begun to retreat because of the rise of mankind! The same is true of elves, dwarves, treants, and orcs. Time, the more advanced and the more civilization continues to develop, the advantages of human beings will become more and more obvious, otherwise the elves will not call the era after the birth of the sun and the moon belong to the era of human beings, and they will not call human beings the title of robber.

And from the elves' name for humans, it can also be seen that the elves will withdraw from Middle-earth in the future, withdraw from the stage of history, and return to Amen Continent deep in their hearts. Because that means that the era of elves is over, and the era of humans has just begun. And, as mentioned above, with the passage of time, with the continuous development of civilization. The advantages of human beings will be greater and greater, and even if the opportunity for the rise of the elves reappears in a certain era in the future, it will be difficult for the elves to return to Middle-earth again. It is also difficult to return to their own land in Middle-earth again, because at that time, the whole world was occupied by human figures, and they did not have the slightest advantage in the face of endless human beings.
