Leah took Siegel for a walk around the camp, seemingly unconcerned that he was seeing everything here. Maybe it's pride, maybe it's confidence, but Siegel thinks it's most likely that Leah doesn't think he'll sneak up on the camp.

"As you can see, most of the elves are not preparing for a siege. Leah and Siegel were standing on a hill as she pointed to the field in the distance. "Do you see the forest? a few days ago it was a burning wasteland, and now the elves are transplanting trees. In a few years, it will be a forest that is beginning to take shape, and countless animals can inhabit it. And then in a few decades, when all the trees have grown, we'll plant new rune trees, and then there will be elves moving here. We want to make this place a better place, not set fire to everything like humans do. ”

"I used to ride through the place you mentioned, and before you arrived, there was a pumpkin field. Although the harvest is long over and the fruit is gone, new pumpkins will be planted there next year. Siegel responded, "Even if the forest looks more harmonious and beautiful, there's nothing wrong with pumpkins." ”

Leah glanced behind the two, mage Rocien still following them. Siegel knew that Leah had something to say to herself, so she turned her head to look at the elven mage, and said, "Don't you need to learn spells or practice spell-casting skills?

"I'll do my best. The corners of Rosian's eyes twitched, but he still said strongly.

"Master Leah, I gave you the most straightforward demonstration. Tell you why the elves can't defeat the Knox Guild. Siegel chuckled, "If it weren't for the fact that Knox would have been more devastating than you." Why should I come to you?"

"Alright. I see what you mean. As long as Heim's soldiers stay behind the walls, we elves won't attack, and more trees make more sense than war killing. ”

Siegel nodded, he needed such a commitment. Now that he had achieved his goal, he decided to take his leave. "If you're in trouble, I'll come back to you. Be careful of the Knox Guild and take care of yourself. ”

Leah waved her hand and said, "Okay." Let's go. ”

After returning to Mir City safely, several people breathed a sigh of relief. The most difficult step of the whole plan had passed, and the feigned cooperation with the elves had bought time for Heim Territory.

"How did you hide from the Priest of the Temple of the Moon?" Ferzak was curious, "When I went to see the elves, I was most afraid of the priests. No matter how clever the deception is, it is difficult to evade the magic trick. ”

"I'm in a special situation, you can't learn it. But at that time, I was telling the truth, and even the moon god wouldn't say much. ”

"What are we going to do next?" asked Janet.

"Hurry up and build a fortress and use it as the center to find the barbarians. I need them to provide plenty of meat at once, so that Dwarf Ding Bao can develop his canned food. Denis, how is the communication with the Southern Lord? Can there still be a transportation line outside?"

Janis wiped the sweat from his head and said to Siegel, "The elves have taken control of the wilderness. The main road is very difficult to pass. However, they are understaffed, and the goal of the War Ancient Tree is so obvious, it is still easy for a small caravan to dodge. Whether it's mercenaries or smugglers, it will work to find them. The more difficult part is how to transport it into the castle. ”

"Every castle has an escape tunnel. Find some nimble mercenaries to enter the castle and tell the lord inside. Either use these lanes to deliver supplies, or be trapped alive by the Elite. Don't worry about this matter first, on the one hand, we have to wait for us to solve our own supply problems first, and on the other hand, the food storage of those castles can last for a long time, and no one will pay attention to it now. ”

Janis nodded and said to Siegel, "My lord, I have received news from outside that Lord Uther is preparing to fight with the elves and is secretly looking for allies. ”

This Uther seems to have a lot of ideas, but the method is a little too simple. He's only had one unsuccessful battle with a mage, but I'm afraid he hasn't learned his lesson yet. If he left the castle, the elves would not let him go back.

"If you find a way to find someone to tell him, just say that I already know his plan of attack, and I will bless him from afar. ”

Denis was stunned for a moment, "Huh?

Siegel nodded. Even he had heard the news, could the elves not know? I hope Uther would understand the warning implied by this sentence and quickly stop it. The mage then asked Hum, "You've been in the castle lately, have you seen Mozuka Erdu?"

"You mean the tin jar that can walk?" the orc thought for a moment, "He should be at Red's." The soldiers who went for treatment used to talk about it. ”

"Okay, I'll go find it. You tap at the soldiers, it's your own people, not the enemy. Siegel had heard of Hum's rigorous training, with whips and sticks being his magic weapons, and he was even more skilled with his hands than with a heavy sword. Every day, soldiers were wounded and sent to Red for treatment, but fortunately there were no deserters so far, and the training was progressing well.

"Recently, they are obedient and practice well, and they play less. Hum scratched the short hair on his head, and said, "It's better to smoke a few more times now than to be shot by the elves on the battlefield." ”

"You're right, just pay attention to proportion. ”

Janet knew Siegel the best among those present, and when she saw the mage's eyes roll, she knew that the mound had an important role in his new plan. "Do you need anything for me?" she asked, "I don't know what Erdu likes." ”

"Who's the best blacksmith in the castle? ”

"Besides the dwarves, it's Brent. He is also a good armorer, able to create full-body armor, and his skills are the best among blacksmiths. ”

"Okay, call him too, and say I have a big business to hand over to him. ”

Siegel had arrived at Red's temple, and it was the first time he had been here. It is a simple building made of stones, and the cracks in the stone are plastered with plaster. Airless. Rhett built this place with his own hands, earth and stone. He has lived here ever since.

It is a shrine without a holy emblem. Apart from exhorting people to do good and providing healing, there are no elaborate rituals and complicated rules. The people of Myr love to come here, and humans, orcs, dwarves, and gnomes all get the same treatment. Red is very happy to be able to help others, and the tolerance of outsiders here makes him feel comfortable.

It's just that many people have asked him recently why the elves invaded their land, drove them away from their homes, and planted big trees in the fields. Is the life of an elf necessarily noble, and must be more meaningful than the life of a peasant? I can only persuade everyone not to worry, Lord Siegel will find a way to solve everyone's dilemma. As long as life remains, there is hope for everything.

When Siegel walked in, Red was helping Erdu adjust his body parts. This mound that came back from the Void has been going wrong lately, and the steel shell twists from time to time, as if it has been smashed flat. Fortunately, this situation has no effect on the health of the mound, but it makes it very inconvenient to move. Obviously a blacksmith's job, Erdu insisted that he needed healing, not repair. Almost every day, he has to help Mozuka adjust his body parts, but the next day he always has problems again for some reason.

The mage looked at the mound, who crossed his slender fingers. The thumb kept spinning. "I can keep a fix on you so that nothing goes wrong with your shell. ”

"Healing is useless!" replied categorically, "You can't keep healing, can you?!"

If Erdu hadn't kept looking at Rhett with round eyes. I'm afraid Siegel doesn't understand his intentions yet. Golems that can use divine magic prove that if a constructed creature is alive and dead, then it is possible to travel to other kingdoms of God after death in addition to returning to the mechanical plane. Mozuka never wanted to go back to the place where he used to work forever, so he tried his best to get rid of Red's gods. But the golem himself didn't know the source of the magic technique, so he couldn't help Erdu.

I'm afraid I'm not going to give up, so I'm looking for a reason to come and see it every day, hoping to be the first to know the secret of the golem's faith.

"If I need to, I might try to learn how to heal. Siegel pretended to scare the mound, so he said, "But if you are obedient, I will not use spells to strengthen your shell." That will keep you from being damaged, but it will be very heavy. ”

"If your lord has any instructions, you can tell me," Erdu replied through gritted teeth, "I am very interested!"

Siegel took it to the second basement level of Myr City, which was on the ceiling of the Elemental Rune Array, and there was nothing in the empty room. The warehouses were all packed up, and the large and small boxes were moved to other places. Most of Siegel's original collection was sent to the Federation Mage Tower, where it was currently safer.

"I remember spending a lot of time on the Void Ship and being able to repair the machines in the fabrication shop. Siegel said to Erdu, "I still remember that assembly line, which could use the plasma technology of Nakus to make magic equipment in batches. Now I need such an assembly line, and my war cannot be without weapons. ”

Erdu shook his head desperately, almost throwing his brain out of his brain. "It's impossible, I can't do it to the extent of Nagkos. And I can't do magic, I can't sculpt plasma patterns, I can't make magic weapons, and I can't restore those machines anyway. ”

"I don't need to make a heavy hammer, and I don't need such nuanced runes. I just need to know how the machines fit together and how they can be combined in a perfect and orderly way. ”

"I know how to work with gears and belts, but I can't get the machine running. Motsuka said, "The machine uses the Flame Soul Crystal as the power, and it also needs a device to convert it into plasma. ”

"I can take care of that. Siegel replied confidently.

"I know the dimensions of the parts, but I can't make them myself. ”

The mage said to him, "That's not a problem, I'll get a master blacksmith who can cast to help you make the parts." ”

"What kind of things do you need to make once the machine is built? I don't have the strength to make this set smaller, let alone make weapons of the usual size. ”

"I don't need daggers and swords," Siegel said, "I need to make crossbows and bolts." (To be continued......)
