Sunlight shines through the barrier and into the forest.

Naya's sky is still clear, not the same as the yellow sand rolling outside, and the haze for thousands of miles.

An enchantment separates Naya from the outside world, making it like a paradise.

It's just that since Will brought back the half-pool of Heva's Fountain from the Temple of the Dead, Naya's former tranquility is gone.

The Tree of Eternity rises from the ground, transforming from the Ancient Tree of Life, and while gaining new life, it brings not only hope for prosperity, but also a sign that Naya is no longer a stronghold of elves, but a real city.

A city with all kinds of functions!

As the Tree of Eternity grows, its vigorous vitality can sustain the continuous expansion of Naya's range, turning the Hundred Miles of Sand into fertile soil. With more land and space, the elves don't need to be crowded into the woods of treehouses like they used to.

The huts were repaired from the open space, some with two floors, some with three floors, densely packed and arranged in an orderly manner.

In addition, facilities such as the war hall where huntresses are trained, the moon hut where the dryads live, and the workshop for crafting weapons and armor are also being built.

Will stood at the top of the canopy, looking at the spirits in full swing below. Behind him, Rommel was standing quietly.

Will had calculated that based on the amount of food produced after the Tree of Eternity was summoned, Naya would be able to accommodate at least 100,000 elves to live normally. And now, Nayaman is full, and there are only 10,000 elves.

By the standards of a human city of the same size, Naya can definitely be called a big city.

However, the difference is that a human city of 100,000 people will have a large number of farms and villages on the periphery of the periphery to provide food for the city. In other words, a human city of the same size retains only political, military, and some economic functions, while completely detaching agricultural functions. In addition to the population of the city, there will also be a large agricultural population outside the city walls. A small number of these agricultural populations were commoners who retained their personal freedom, and the rest were a large number of slaves. And these slaves, in fact, are not counted in the demographic.

Naya, on the other hand, is different in that its agricultural functions are mixed with many other urban functions, and there is no strict hierarchy among the elves like humans. As a result, agricultural output in cities will be much less efficient than in human cities.

However, with a black technology buff bonus like the Ancient Tree of Fire, it can well nurture the plants growing around it without the need for elves to take care of it. In the case of a small number of both sides, the difference in production between human and elven cities is not significant.

"My lord, we don't have enough building materials!"

Will leaned back into his lord's house, and behind him, Rommel said slowly.

At this time, the House of Lord Will was no longer the original simple hut, but a newly renovated two-story long wooden house. On either side there were huts where the guards rested, and there were bedrooms, kitchens, and maids' quarters.

As Will entered the house, Rommel didn't say much.

If you want to build a city, even if it's a small city, you need a lot of building materials. Although the Golden Harvest Chamber of Commerce secretly purchased a large number of building materials in the name of rebuilding the town of Lyon, these building materials are almost exhausted today.

Will thought for a moment, glanced at Rommel, and asked, "What do you mean?"

"My lord, we've got our eyes on us. If we purchase a large number of building materials in the market, it will inevitably show traces and be taken advantage of. Moreover, it is a long road to transport goods from the small town of Lyon to the Land of the Wild Moon. Although we are very cautious, if someone wants to keep an eye on it. Sooner or later, they will get Naya's place. ”

In the past, it was enough to transport expensive luxuries such as perfumes and beauty potions, and to have the druids of the wind and the night vultures. However, to transport bricks, tiles, wood, nails, tools and other building materials, without a large fleet of transport vehicles, it is impossible to transport them by air alone.

Naya's city construction is halfway there, and it is impossible to stop. If you don't buy from the south, where will you get so many building materials?

Will led Rommel into a cabin. There is no frills inside, just a wooden bench. Placed on it is a map depicting the Land of the Wild Moon and the surrounding areas.

The map is detailed, documenting the surrounding human country towns and cities.

"These days, I've sent my Nightvin troops around to scout. One interesting point was discovered, the real Land of the Wild Moon is not so different from the traditional impression of humans. It is not desolate and uninhabited. In fact, from the Land of the Wild Moon to the east to the Sea of Prussia. In the vast area of this period, there are a large number of foreign strongholds. ”

One of the advantages of being a lord is that you don't have to do things like exploring the map yourself.

Will smiled, pointed to a place not far from Naya's punctuation on the map, and said, "And our scouts just discovered a dwarven stronghold here, Tuvita!"

"What do you mean by that..."

Will nodded and said, "We've just taken in the sandmen, they can provide us with a steady supply of ore, and there's no shortage of wood on Naya's side. What we lack is craftsmen who can forge tools and make building materials. ”

"But my lord, how do you try to convince them, the dwarves are notoriously hot-tempered!"

"I have commanded the spirits of Naya to make dozens of jars of wine. Send the elves in the name of gifts in a few days, and you should be able to make a trade agreement with them. ”

Rommel smiled and said, "Dwarves are heavy drinkers. In this way, they are able to provide us with a large number of tools and materials. The construction of Naya will be slow, but the security will be greatly improved. ”

"And that's not all. Will looked at the map, his eyes lit up. "Compared to the entire human continent, the Land of the Wild Moon is very small. It is bordered to the southwest by the south, the Dolomites to the north, and the Sea of Prussia, an extension of the Sea of Chaos, to the east. If we can build enough supply depots in the Land of the Wild Moon, and build a port along the coast, and build sea ships. Then there would be a land and sea trade route connecting the southern and eastern borders. Even the barbarians on the other side of the eastern border, the vast Asubis, and the krakens in the chaotic seas beyond the Sea of Prussia surrounding the southern and western realms, we can get in touch with them, and then import their specialties into the human kingdom in a steady stream. ”

"My lord, we don't have the money or the manpower to do this. ”

Rommel poured cold water at the right time, but Will was not angry. His gaze became very determined, and he said, "That's right, the most important thing for us now is to solve the troubles in the southern border!"
