Neres' face turned pale, and his face was even more ugly when he saw that Richard's left hand was empty, and there was not even the slightest shadow of a fireball. I was actually deceived by Richard!

In retrospect, the whole fight was awkward from the start, and Nereus never had a good time at all. Richard's fighting style always made him very uncomfortable, and he was afraid of being deceived when he went all out, and if he didn't dare to go all out, he would be pressed and beaten by Richard. He was the last to be fooled, and in the end he was deceived by Richard.

"Richard, who did you learn all these dastardly tricks from?" asked Nerius indignantly.

"White Nights. ”

Nereus immediately decided not to dwell on the matter anymore. After letting go of this obsession, he immediately discovered another problem: how could Richard fight him for so long like a warrior?

After Richard demonstrated the magic weapon, Nereus was completely shocked. He was shocked that there was such a wonderful build, and he was shocked by the speed at which Richard's construction level had improved. Now Richard is at least on an equal footing with Luneau, and in the near future, Richard will become a Grand Constructor, or even a Holy Constructor.

As for the function of the magic force itself, Nereus did not approve of it.

Norland has long formed a clear division of labor for thousands of years, a warrior is a warrior, a mage is a mage, and a priest is a priest. Everyone is focused on going further in their careers, not trying other fields. For example, Nereus can't try magic, and he can't learn it at level 1. It's not that he can't learn magic, it's not that he doesn't have talent, and if he goes down the magic path, he will at least be a great magician. However, Nereus can easily cross the Sanctuary in terms of combat duties, so he will only develop his combat duties with all his might, and will not think about magic at all.

From this point of view, the construction of the magic weapon simulates the fighting spirit with magic power, so that the magician has the ability of some warriors, which is completely nonsense. And it also occupies a valuable building position. Since Richard is a magician, it is good to focus on powerful magic, so why bother to get such a thing on his body. Protecting the mage is the job of the warrior. As for the duel, if it is done according to the rules, the mage does not have to fear the warrior at all, instead of fighting the warrior.

Richard smiled and didn't argue with Neres. Only by being to the Peerless Battlefield can you understand why St. Lawrence designed the Magic Force. Magicians can't always be protected, once they are alone, they need to have the ability to fight heads-up, especially the ability to protect themselves after being close to someone. Dead magicians can't cast magic.

Magic armament is not only a way for magicians to save their lives, but also a means to kill enemies in battle. Just like Richard did with Neres. As long as you can bring the enemy down, there is no need to distinguish between what methods are passed.

After this battle, Richard had fully appreciated the power of the demonic forces, but Nerith was not so happy. He kept muttering that if he could use the power of level seventeen, he would definitely make Richard look good. Looking at that tangled look, it's like a little beauty who has just been taken advantage of by a man.

Richard didn't care about Neris's awkwardness, and he next handed Nereus a set of Savage Strikes, ready to exchange for magic materials. The damn magic weapon has depleted his material reserves, and if he doesn't replenish them, he will soon face the dilemma of running out of cooking. And in the near future, there will be one more Luoqi who consumes magic materials.

Bidding farewell to Nereus, Richard returned to his home and began to meditate and draw the same composition.

A few days later, Nereus sent the magic book and magic materials. So Richard continued to draw the suit. And outside the city, the warriors cut down wood day after day, carving out the way to the Tree of Life.

The gunpowder ran out quickly, but fortunately, Deep Blue sent a second batch of gunpowder in time. This time, instead of using the expensive teleportation magic array, it was transported using a bipedal wyvern. So the amount reached ten tons, enough for Richard to use for a long time. As soon as the gunpowder arrived, the pace of logging was accelerated.

Two months passed quickly, and the thirty-kilometer road to the Tree of Life had been opened. The situation on the other side of the Tree of Life is stable, and there is nothing out of the ordinary. The warriors stationed at the Tree of Life were so bored that they began to crave a battle that was better than repeating it day after day.

When Richard learned of this situation, he immediately arranged for the soldiers guarding the health tree to enter a rotation system, changing shifts every three months.

There was also a conflict between the garrison and the elven tribe, because several warriors felt that these attached elves were slaves and felt that their status was superior, and the green forest elves looked really good if they put aside their skin color totems. Although it is not as good as the High Elves of Norland, it is also above the average level of humans. So a few panicked warriors couldn't hold back and blocked a lone female elf in the treehouse, ready to enjoy the style of the different planes.

The fate of these fighters was tragic, one dead and three wounded.

The combat power of the green forest elves is completely equal for men and women, and the average level of adult elves is above level ten. Moreover, they are wild and untamable, and have always had a strong murderous intent, most of the reason for their willingness to surrender is the Tree of Life, and a small part is due to the Great Elder of the Elven Tribe. These warriors touched the heart of the elves' most cherished heart, glory and purity, but the female elves suddenly broke out, wounded them hard, and then fled into the forest, where they never disappeared.

Then the garrison and the elven tribe completely entered a tense confrontation, and a great war could occur at any time. The soldiers of the garrison demanded that the elven tribe hand over the murderer, and the elven tribe demanded severe punishment for several soldiers who tried to rape/rape. If it weren't for the timely suppression of the elite humanoid knights and the elven clan elders, it would have been another battle long ago. If you really want to fight, even if there are five elite knights here, these warriors are not enough for the elves to kill.

After learning of this, Richard immediately issued an order to the elite humanoid knights to arrest all the fighters who committed the crime, send them back to the base city and then try them publicly, and then execute them all. The wounding elf was acquitted, and the elven elder and the druid elder were invited to the base city to oversee the matter.

As soon as the decision was made, the anger of the elven tribe quickly subsided, while the human warriors were in an uproar. Most of them are from Lina's subordinates, the dragon mage has always led the army to be relaxed and easy-going, where have they seen such strict military discipline? And in the heterogeneous plane, due to the long-term displacement of the warriors, the commanders have always turned a blind eye to some small actions of their subordinates after the conquest, which is also the unspoken rule of most dimensional war armies.

However, the five elite knights were extremely ruthless, killing several warriors who took the lead in the noise on the spot, which calmed down the scene.

Seven days later, in the central square of the base city, three wounded fighters were hanged. The Elven Grand Elder and the Druid Elder watched the execution with their own eyes. Only then did Richard's doubts be dispelled.

Another takeaway from this incident was that the young Druid Jub Spirit, who had been imprisoned all along, finally decided to surrender. The young druid was about twenty years old, and was indeed a teenager among the green forest elves who naturally lived for more than two hundred years. However, his druid level had already reached level fourteen, which was not far from the standard of an elder of level sixteen, and the elven elder was only level seventeen. The rapid increase in the level of the Spirit Wind is closely related to his ability to communicate with the Tree of Life.

Another gain from this incident was to deter the original garrison in the base city, and clearly tell them who the real leader of this plane was. Originally, Richard had the smallest number of descendants, and in addition to his followers, he now had more than twenty Akmund freedom fighters and infantry knights, fifteen constructed knights, and ten elite humanoid knights. Although the dozens of people are all strong and strong, they are insignificant in terms of number compared to the original more than 2,000 defenders in the base city.

After Richard entered the Green Forest, except for cutting down trees or blowing up trees, there was no big battle. Only thirty men were used in the battle to defeat the elven tribe, and the course of the battle is unknown. Therefore, those original garrisons were not very convinced of Richard, although Richard's reputation as a royal constructor was resounding, but his young face always made it easy to ignore his strength and achievements.

The situation in the Green Forest is at an impasse, and without the ability to completely break the will of the Forest, it is impossible to attack the other two Living Trees. Richard also wanted to replicate the classic battle of the previous one, but the other two elven tribes only attacked occasionally, and even the walking forest was no longer driven, which made Richard helpless.

The surrendered elven tribe was willing to help Richard unconditionally guard the lifetree, but they refused to lead Richard's troops to attack the tribe of their compatriots. In the face of the green forest elves who are stubborn and do not cherish life so much, Richard does not have a good solution for a while.

The will of the forest is an invisible barrier in front of you. Without eliminating it, Richard could not move forward again. Richard consulted with Neris, Lina, Agamemnon, and others many times, but could not find a good solution. Although Richard's sacred unicorn can provide shelter in a large area, there is only one of them, and it can't be sent around the forest every day to search aimlessly, right? In the vast forest sea of hundreds of kilometers, only one unicorn needs to be searched for what year and month can find another tree of life? And the tree of life can be moved.

There is no harvest in the stalemate, and there is a benefit to logging. Now that the attacks of the Green Forest Elves have been reduced to a minimum, almost all the soldiers and civilians stationed in the base city have been dispatched to cut wood. Richard urgently procured 500 logging axes to get them back. Although ordinary warriors can't deal with rockwood, they still have no problem dealing with other trees. So now the income from the timber cut down by the moonlight is close to 200,000.
