Chapter Eighty-Eight: Love
The so-called high elves, except for the word high in their names, the rest of their bodies have no sense of high at all.
"They're a bunch of robbers!"
Standing in the square in front of the lord's house, looking into the distance, you can easily see the elven knights galloping outside the yellow sand.
These High Elves were dressed in shining armor, shining with golden light, and dazzling. The men were tall and large, and they were much bigger than the White Elves and Dark Elves, almost half the body taller.
There was a look of disgust in Elder Kobber's eyes, and his beard trembled.
Will stood aside, a little puzzled, only to hear Elder Cobber explain.
There are always some unconscious people in every race who like to do things, and the High Elves are exactly that.
Before the decline of the Elven Empire, the High Elves were the guards of the Elven royal family, they were tall and powerful, and they were natural warriors.
At the height of the Elven Empire, in order to show the majesty of the Elven Empire, the royal family equipped each High Elf who was a guard with a magical gold armor and silver helmet, symbolizing honor and dignity. Even after the fall of the elves, the High Elves still abide by this ancient tradition, which is what Will now sees, the shiny cool outfit.
However, if you want a cool outfit, you need money. When the Elven Empire existed, the military salaries and equipment of the High Elves were directly funded by the royal family. But now that the Elven Empire has fallen, where are they going to get money?
Born as natural warriors, they started to do business without roots. And, after a long life of decline, they began to become extreme. High force and strong combat power allow them to easily plunder the weak races.
At first, they were somewhat restrained, but after being taught a lesson by the magician in the human realm, they began to slowly withdraw from the human realm and turned to the rest of the race, including their kindred, the elves.
"When they were in the Elven Empire, they were very close to the royal family and were known as the servants of the Elven Empress. After the fall of the Elven Empire, they felt superior to others, believing that the rest of the elves of their own clan should selflessly offer their goods to them to squander, and even wantonly kill those of their own clan who did not want to be blackmailed by them. In short, they have a bad reputation. ”
Listening to Elder Cobber's words, these high elves are really god-hating characters.
"So, there's only one possibility for them to appear in droves, and they're short of money again?"
"Yes!" Cober nodded solemnly.
"I see, just send them some money!" Will said with little interest, and turned his head back to sleep.
Inside the elves, there are many subspecies. For Naya, there are many elves lacking now, but among these elves, there is no shortage of natural warriors.
Because for Will, as a natural warrior, one of the characteristics is that he eats a lot, and there is no way to convert it into productivity. There are now five Chimeras among Naya, and although they are still minors, they are more than enough to defend Naya in this desolate place.
Will doesn't like war, because it's a last resort, it's expensive, and it's just a bunch of High Elves who don't have anything but a cool outfit. If possible, he still likes to spend money on Ping An, which is the most cost-effective way.
When he had finished his confession, Will went back to sleep in the lord's house. After all, as a lord, there are two elders, Kober and Ruber, who are responsible for everything, big and small. Will has always lived a depraved capitalist life of teasing the eagle and playing with the leopard, and flirting with the little maid Arya when he has nothing to do.
By the time Will wakes up, the sun is setting, and at dusk, the Land of the Wild Moon will become unusually cold, and this is only the prelude to the night.
However, there is no need to worry about it in Naya, because the Eternal Tree is like a giant air conditioner, which can regulate the temperature within the barrier it is arranged.
When Will woke up, the gentle and lovely little maid Arya walked in and said, "My lord, the two elders, Cober and Ruber, are outside. ”
"Let them in!"
The two elven elders did not look good, and they were arguing with each other.
"What, they're asking for too much?"
At this time, Arya walked in with a plate of tea and dinner, and waited beside Will.
"They don't want money. ”
Rubeus said bluntly.
"They're converted?" Will picked up a cup of tea from Arya's plate. The tea is fragrant and has a green sheen.
"Things are a little different from what we expected, and they are here to beg for asylum. Following Ruber's words, Cober explained.
"Why?" asked Will, confused.
"According to them, three months ago, they made a single business. After that, he was chased and killed. They originally had the strength of three legions, but now there is only one left, and there are a large number of old and weak. ”
"I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet. It's not uncommon to do that kind of business, and it's common to run into hard stubble, what an unfortunate elf!" Will held the teacup and drank the tea slowly, but glanced at the faces of the two elders and asked, "What do you two think?"
"I mean no, after all, they are unknown, there are many of them, and there are strong enemies behind them, so don't get Naya in trouble. But Rubeus didn't think so. Elder Cobber said.
"I fully understand their situation and feel sorry for what happened to them. Tell them that Naya is willing to provide humanitarian relief for their situation, providing some food and a quilt to stay overnight. And if possible, we are willing to mediate between the High Elves and the forces that hunt them down. ”
"Your Excellency means we don't accept them?"
"Why bother yourself!" Will spread his hands indifferently, then passed the mouth of the teacup to his lips, ready to drink.
"But my lord, we learned from our conversations with them that among the goods they had looted was the artifact we needed, the blessing of the Spirit of Nature. Seeing that Will was about to agree, Elder Ruber said hurriedly.
"Poof!"
The tea he had just drunk in his mouth squirted out, Will wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Really?"
"I've been there to see it, and it's indeed a blessing from the true Spirit of Nature. Rubeus nodded and said.
"Everyone is an elf, so we should help each other, unite and love each other. As you just said, there are still a large number of old and weak in this group of High Elves. The night in the Land of the Wild Moon is so cold, how can I, who am so loving, bear to let them spend the night outside?
“......!”
