Vansayti's eyes flashed with shame, but this time he didn't refute anything.

"They can't quit, and they will stay in the trading cities of Sleepless, Muward, Fiji, Oak City, and Mochizuki City, many of whom are addicted to addiction, or second-tier dealers who are engaged in the trade of ambergris cream, and they also run incense smelling or incense parlors in their hometowns, and they need to buy from the trading cities. Modi said.

"It's not that I don't want to quit, do you know what we ambergare-sucking elves are called? Van Sayti said excitedly, and then something more about the elves came out of his mouth.

In fact, it's not that the High Elves don't know the harm of this thing, as early as the First Ambergris War, when if the elves won the war, they might still have a chance to resist the harm caused by the ambergris.

Unfortunately, the elves lost, and although they retained control of the west of the River of Awakening, Edom was in chaos.

In this chaos, as mentioned earlier, some of the elven guerrillas still regard the land of Shangri-La as orthodox, while others are acting on their own. Their attitude towards ambergris paste is also different, some are resolutely forbidden and destroyed as soon as they are discovered, while others are used as captured materials to trade, trade with the Terrans, and even with the Centaurs in exchange for things. Some may think that this is wrong, but it is not in the territory east of the River of Awakening, which has been chaotic for twenty years after the end of the First Ambergris War, where the High Elves who initially insisted on fighting the kingdoms of the Azure Continent have all but given up on fighting the invaders head-on, and have instead made Centaurs and Orcs their primary enemies.

This is certainly because of the fact that those who have the strategy in the nations are after the armistice. Contraction forces have long been worked out. A strategy that only maintains order in and around the treaty city. At the same time, it is also because the Centaurs and other orc tribes are really encroaching on the interests that originally belonged to the elves, forcing the elves to either choose to give up the east of the Awakening River and return to the west of the territory, or only fight;

In a tough environment, sometimes you have to trade. Ambergris was a trade that even the Centaurs accepted, and the emptiness and collapse of faith after the defeat caused many High Elves to relapse even though they knew it was harmful.

Relatively speaking, west of the Awakening River, the area where the Elven Court still has a greater ability to control the resistance to the ambergris paste is the best, although according to the treaty signed after the defeat, it is impossible to stop the trade of ambergris cream on the surface, but it is strictly forbidden in private, and this prohibition is manifested in the fact that if you smoke the ambergris cream, the people around you will treat it as a plague, so that it has a certain effect in the private ban.

But there are definitely side effects. The side effect is discrimination and division of the High Elves from other regions. Or rather, the western elves have erected an invisible wall, and the elves who are found to be smoking ambergris will be physically isolated.

About the abstinence of ambergris ointment. After the war, the druids studied it with all their might, and it should be said that they still found a certain effective means, with a firm will, and with the assistance of natural magic, divine magic, recovery and purification, it is not a small possibility to help addicts get rid of drug addiction, but long-term examples show that there must be one more thing that must be added, that is, an environment suitable for excavators.

This environment means that there are no similar addicts around to lure the newly quit elves to relapse, and there is no obvious discrimination against the former addicts by other people in the environment, so that they can gradually return to the normal population.

The western elves can be said to use coercive means to forcibly isolate and create a suitable environment, but after awakening, the elves in Edong lack such an environment, especially for the elves who have become addicted, the probability of relapse is quite high, and it is very difficult for them to quit the ambergris cream.

Like Versaily, he was a member of the Makuward Resistance Front guerrillas before coming to the city that never sleeps, and the ultimate goal and slogan of this elven guerrilla is to recover the Makuward region from the invaders and restore the elven rule and traditions. In the early stage, they also engaged in guerrilla warfare against other countries over this goal, and at one time seriously threatened the transportation routes between the city and other trading cities. In order to deal with this difficult elven guerrilla, in addition to strengthening the protection and taking the initiative to clean up, the countries also allowed the Centaur to migrate to the wild in the Muwald region, and promised that the minerals found in the wild would be jointly developed by the countries and the Centaur tribe.

As a result, the conflict between the aborigines and the foreign invaders was successfully transformed into a conflict between the aborigines, and a few years later, a favorable situation was formed in which the armies of various countries and the centaurs jointly dealt with the resistance front guerrillas, and the situation faced by the elven guerrillas can be imagined.

In such a difficult environment, sometimes injured, there were simply not enough elven priests to treat the injuries, and some team members smoked ambergris in order to be less painful, in order to continue fighting under the huge pressure.

It was under these circumstances that Van Setti became addicted, and one of his parents was a former addict, which made his resistance to ambergris very weak, and he tried to quit after several failed attempts after becoming addicted.

He was forced to leave the guerrillas, whose situation was beginning to improve, and the nations began to suppress the centaurs and orcs, and no longer fully supported them against the elves.

And an addict like him will not accept going to the western elves, and it is not suitable to go to the areas controlled or contested by other guerrillas, first, the combat ability has greatly regressed, and second, he still has a sister Hurley who depends on each other.

So he can only come to a place like the city that never sleeps, where he can find a job, do things for people, and it is easier to get ambergris ointment, and there are incense smelling halls and incense parlors directly in the city.

There are not many elves like him, and due to the unfriendliness of the Centaurs, the elves will also group together and develop into the form of gangsters, and the famous Taiping Club in the city that never sleeps was created by the elves, and they even controlled some elves and provided services for the exchange of benefits.

Van Sayti was better than those who had fallen into the past, and though he could not get rid of the addiction to ambergris, he would not join the depraved ones.

He chose to become an amateur pickpocket. And especially like to steal tourists from various countries. First, there will be more gains. The second is a means of revenge.

But here, he still smokes ambergris until today, when he hits an iron plate.

Rand was silent for a while after learning about the situation, and Huo Qiu stretched out his head, "What are you going to do with this guy?"

Rand thought for a moment and said to Versails, "You stole our things, but the necklace has already been retrieved, and you have also been shot." It can be regarded as a punishment. If you do one more thing for me, I won't pursue you anymore. ”

"What's the matter?" said Van Sayti with a sigh of relief.

"I'm here to travel, but now I'm very interested in what you said, Modi is a guide I hired, and with his guidance, I know some things that I didn't know before, but now that I meet you, maybe I can see something deeper. And Modi is just a Silva, there are some things I want to know, his identity is not convenient, but it should be easier to have your help. ”

"What do you want to know?" said Van Saiti, puzzled.

"For example, the Taiping Club you just mentioned. And the Centaur Gang that almost blocked you just now, they belong to the Axe Gang, right? Rand said bluntly.

"No, I can't. Too dangerous. Van Sayti refused, "It's impossible for me to get close to the Centaur axe, we're a different race. ”

"What about the Taiping Club?" Rand said.

"I can think of a way there, but if something happens, I can't stand here unless you can promise something. "The Versailles Causeway.

"Tell me about it. Rand said.

"Help me and my sister get the right to live in Asturias, or some other alien plane, and get out of here, out of the Emerald Continent. Van Saiti gritted his teeth and offered his own terms.

"That's right. Rand muttered, thinking he could understand the conditions offered by Van Sayti.

Whether it was because he wanted to quit the ambergris cream, or because he wanted to find a more suitable environment for his sister, who was not yet addicted to drugs, he didn't want to stay here anymore.

"I've heard that the Wood Elves can live a normal life in your kingdom, and so can I, I have to give Hurley a good environment. I'll help you know some of the things you want to know, but you'll help me too. Van Saiti said in a deep voice.

"Okay, deal. Rand agreed after a moment's thought, and he reached out and struck Versailles with a blow.

"Hey, you really help him, just to see what kind of Taiping Club? If there is really something wrong with that place, we should be able to enter it if we reveal our identity. The fat man whispered.

"Show your identity, maybe we can find one of our uncles and uncles in the city council to help, but that means our journey is coming to an end. Also, even if you can go in like you say, you won't see what I want to see, and at most someone will serve you. Rand shrugged.

"What do you want to see?" said Hocho, puzzled.

Rand ignored Huo Qiu and said to the Causeway of Versailles: "The agreement between us is that we can buy another magic contract and officially sign it." Now, let's go see your sister first. ”

Moddy stepped forward to support Versailles, and the group walked towards the area where he lived.

The area where Van Saidi lived could not be found on the map of the city of Sleepless, or it was built next to the area found on the map, and it was relocated many times.

Every time the life and business district of the city that never sleeps expands, residents like them have to move.

Over the decades, the city has expanded several times, especially thirty years ago, when the industrial zone was established. Originally, there was no industrial area in the city that never sleeps, and even if there were factories and workshops, they were scattered and scattered.

After decades of development, the industrial zone of Asturias is divided into blocks, because the industrial zone is only involved in manufacturing, and the use of black rock factories is also convenient to get magic from black rock, so as to plan the source power route, realize directional input, and then divide the output. If you don't, the Black Rock Industrial Zone, which can provide magic, will be cluttered with inputs and outputs, and the entire supply network will be like a spider's web, and it will be very cumbersome to maintain.

The teleportation channel is located at this end of the city that never sleeps, and the mana required is maintained by magic crystals in the early days, but with the increase in transportation and trade volume, the throughput of the teleportation channel increases year by year, either the teleportation channel is increased, or the transmission efficiency of the original teleportation channel per unit time must be improved, and either way, it is inevitable that the magic power of operation and maintenance will increase.

Relying on the use of magic crystals alone, the cost was too high, so in the end, they still embarked on the establishment of some black rock industries in the Emerald Continent, so that there could be a more economical supply of source power to maintain the teleportation channel.

The Van Sayti home is in the style of an old elven treehouse, but instead of being built on a tree, it is on the ground, and it is surrounded by thick stone walls.

When Rand and the others arrived at their destination, they found that something seemed to have happened, because the wall had collapsed, and it seemed that someone had destroyed it.

"Hurry!Hurley!" Vansayti was startled, shook off Moody, and limped forward. (To be continued.) )
