There are only about two dozen elves left in the Elven royal clan now.

This is obviously different from the order Li Guangfu received, according to the intelligence, it should be that less than half of the elven royal families who plan to take this opportunity to betray the empire should be right, and that information is so accurate that Li Guangfu even has a [dead list] that is ready to be used in the backup plan.

But the brutal truth now is that the silent majority all joined the betrayers when they found betrayal plausible.

Li Guangfu didn't know how these only relatively young elven royal clans were able to hold on, just as he didn't know how he was going to deal with him when he went back.

At first, Myloholm seemed to think that the other elders who didn't show up with the one-eyed elves were staying outside to help pacify the army, but he soon discovered the truth, and sat silently in the corner of the ritual platform alone, silent.

The other two princes and princesses were also obviously depressed, and if they didn't care about the occasional sneer from the little princess, they would be depressed......

Myrohir had just placed the mysterious blue gem on top of the orb of the ritual table, and the gem seeped into the orb as if dissolving, and then the blue light swept around the ceremonial table, and more ornate devices of unknown purpose gradually appeared as if they were cast by the light, and soon almost filled the entire space.

One of the most eye-catching, and the ones that occupies the most space, are hundreds of devices with blue lids shaped like coffins, and as they are activated, the streamlined blue lids quickly fade in color, and through the translucent covers, you can see that they are bed-like settings inside, but there are many more small magical items of unknown purpose.

Li Guangfu's soldiers are not idle now, and they are called by the elven royal family, who are obviously understaffed, to help control the many extra magic equipment, and it seems that this is the fastest way to deal with the chaos outside.

Li Guangfu didn't join in the fun, he went to a martial general, that is, many coolies, which was obviously not a good excuse to avoid talking to Princess Myrohir.

"No, princess, I should call you Her Majesty by now, right?" said Li Guangfu to Myrohir, who walked beside him.

She smiled slightly bitterly and sighed, "What is the value of such a king?"

"Despite the great calamity that has befallen the royal family today, many elves still need your leadership. When these words came out of the mouth of Li Guangfu, who personally harmed the royal family and suffered such a catastrophe, he inevitably felt a little guilty.

Myrohir sensed Li Guangfu's embarrassment and said, "I'm sorry, Terran general, we personally gave a verdict to our companions, but we still want you, a human, to help us wield the butcher's knife. ”

Well...... I don't know how big the misunderstanding error is on both sides, Li Guangfu only knows that half of the elf royal family intends to betray and wants to deal with them himself, but he doesn't know that the other half who haven't betrayed actually wants to deal with them.

What did that Mylokle say to the elves here?

In any case, Li Guangfu believes that he does not need this apology, because his original mission is to kill people.

"You don't need to apologize, Your Highness, although I didn't know that you had made such an internal decision, it didn't change my approach, I'm a soldier, I carried out the orders I received, that's all. Li Guangfu said with a wry smile halfway through, "It's just that the order I received was to kill the small half of the betrayed elven royal family and ensure the survival of the other half, and now it seems to have failed." ”

Myrohir shook his head: "The betrayers are cleared, the loyalists remain, and your mission is perfectly accomplished." ”

Li Guangfu felt that it would not be good for both parties to continue the topic, so he pointed to the blue, well, coffins, and asked Myrohir, "What are those strange devices? Could it be that the elven royal family still has vampires?"

"That's what the betrayers are aiming for, though it's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes. "I don't know if the General has been told the true origin of this space, so I'll give you another introduction." This dimension is not an imitation of a legendary spell or artifact, but a genuine Outland Fragment, and a stable Outland Fragment that has been proven to be capable of living on its own for thousands of years. Although it is now captured by us, fixed to the edge of our world, it can be stripped back at any time. At this point, I'm sure you've already guessed what the betrayer is trying to do, right?"

Lee Guangfu showed a look of disgust: "They want to escape from our world? Those devices are prepared for this, but when did they prepare for them?"

Myrohir nodded and said, "Before I was born, before the elves left their country. ”

"Then why didn't they leave directly then?" said Li Guangfu.

With a hint of ridicule, Myrohir spoke of the elders' misery: "Because at that time the true God was still asleep, and the true [hero] was still alive. ”

"True Heroes...... Are you referring to the prototype of the current heroic inheritance, the hero who fought with the [Bandit Daughter], the [Ostracized Magic Apprentice] and the [Rehabilitated Noble], the hero who saved the world?" Li Guangfu didn't expect that there was such a person back then, and he thought it was all made up.

"That's right, at that time, the [heroes] were going around crusading against those mages who wanted to escape from this world, and the elven royal clan was afraid that they would become the target of the crusade, so they never dared to really do it, of course, this is only one of the reasons. Myrohir said.

Li Guangfu was curious: "Why do [heroes] crusade against those mages? they just let them go if they want to, and killing them can't make them contribute to the war against filth, if [heroes] are injured in the process of fighting those mages, wouldn't it be worth the loss?"

From a general's point of view, Li Guangfu could not understand the meaning of doing this, those mages could not surrender to the enemy, as a neutral force, there were only two possibilities: assisting and not assisting, and the enemy's current crusade against them would only increase the attrition.

Moreover, even if those mages are killed, they will not be able to escape the fate of being filthy, and they will have to fight countless times, so it may be better to let them go, but to prevent them from becoming enemies.

Myrohir corrected Lee Kwang-fu's misconception: "Those mages don't just want to escape from this world, they want to continue to live in other worlds. So in order to ensure that they can live to find a new world, that is, an outer land, they must be fully prepared, and take away a lot of precious resources and magic from this world to ensure that they can survive in the astral realm for a long time, at that time the whole world is facing a life-and-death crisis, this kind of person should not be killed, so who should be killed?"

She pointed to the many magical devices in this space and said, "General, do you know how many resources that could have been used to save the world are stored here? If these resources had not been left here, the early days of the United Kingdom would not have been so difficult. ”

"You say that [heroes] and true gods are only one reason, but what about the others?" asked Li Guangfu.

"The other main reason I know is that even with so much magic and resources, even if there are only a few hundred dormant silos for the royal family to use, and all the other elven people are abandoned, they can't be sure that they will find the new world one day. This outland fragment has been adrift for thousands of years before it was captured by the elven kingdom, and who knows if it will drift for another ten million years? What a desperate thing it would be if the energy ran out and everyone was forced to wake up from its dormancy, only to find that they could only wait to die in this small space!" Myrohir said, "The elves are always looking to the future, but this is a bit good at this time - they are frightened by their own expectations and have not been able to take that step back then. ”

She looked at Li Guangfu and said, "There is something that may make the general angry. The reason why those betrayers planned to restart their escape plan was not only because the Elven Kingdom had escaped the control of the filth because of the explosion, but also because they had found several feasible astral coordinates from the history of the Qin and Han people, who had been fighting against the evil gods outside the territory. They believe that they can find a new world where they can survive by traveling to those few coordinates. ”

Li Guangfu didn't feel anything to be angry about, because he had never experienced the time when his ancestors were kept in the dark by the true god and fought against the endless evil gods and cults that emerged one after another, and he was a modern person who grew up with the blessing left by the true god.

When he said this, he forgot his roots, and he could only think about being beaten by the old man.

But there was one thing that puzzled him.

"Why are they planning to restart this plan again?" Li Guangfu couldn't understand, "We are not on the verge of extinction now, we have already recovered the Wickam Kingdom of the past, why are they still thinking about running?"

The development of the United Kingdom is thriving, and no matter how many of these elves have the slow reaction of the immortal species, and their thinking is stuck in the stinky problems of the past, they should not run away at this time.

Myrohir counted the inferiority of his race without changing his face: "Elves are such creatures, we remember the past that other races don't remember, and look forward to the future that other races can't see, but we can't grasp the present that everyone lives in." General, after recovering the Elven Kingdom, what do you think the Royal Council and the military will do?"

"It is not enough to say that it will be disposed of. "Let me think that some of the defenses in the north, east and west should be retained in case of emergency, but the defenses in the south are no longer needed and must be dismantled." There are too many flashy buildings here, and so many valuable resources should not be left here for people to see, but should be transformed into real combat effectiveness...... No, wait, wouldn't it, the royal family of the Wicken people has also dismantled their capital defenses, and there is no reason for the elven royal family to ...... now."

Myrohir smiled bitterly: "That's right, for most of the elven royal clans, life in the elven kingdom is the main theme of their lives, and if they want to watch other races dismantle their own kingdoms, they would rather simply leave." That's the reason for the past. ”

Li Guangfu understood what she meant: "Is there a reason related to the future?"

"Sure enough, General, you don't know. "But even among the Terrans, there are people who have discovered the danger ahead. General, has the border defense become more and more difficult in recent years?"

"Yes, it's a shame to say, the first time in hundreds of years that I was counterattacked by filthy forces was when I was a small soldier, and in recent years, there have been several incidents of filthy counterattacks every year. But on the whole......, we're still moving forward! Border, border line...... The border is getting longer and longer......" Li Guangfu sweated on his face.

Myrohir did not rush to speak this time, but waited for Lee Guangfu's question.

"Demolished this elven kingdom, did you fill it in?" asked Li Guangfu without hesitation.

"I hope so. Myrohir couldn't hide her admiration for him, "It's a pity that as a new generation, I don't really know how many resources can be recycled in this kingdom, and other elves ......"

She turned her head to glance at the one-eyed elves who were busy, "I'm sure you can understand that those of us who gave the death penalty to the betrayers are not only not high-ranking people, but not even most of them. We don't know all about the many hidden secrets of this kingdom, and I don't think we would have succeeded if it hadn't been for King Myrocle choosing to side with us. ”

"But it is impossible for the adventurers to abandon this new land to the north, and in the past hundred years even the people have developed a desire to move spontaneously, and the royal council must not have realized this...... No, even if you realize it, do you want to use the army to forcibly control the adventurers and the people? If you tell the truth to the people......

Myrohir shook his head, "It must have caused panic, but even then it was originally a viable path, but now it's no longer viable. ”

Li Guangfu's eyes were split: "Those [pastor] pastors who have escaped! If people's hearts fluctuate, they will be like a cult to demagogue, and they will not let go of this opportunity! No, this explosion was originally related to a [pastor] pastor, could it be that they planned it!?"

After confirming that none of the soldiers brought by Li Guangfu were eavesdropping, Myrohir continued: "In the worst scenario, the area of the United Kingdom will shrink considerably. But these are actually secondary. ”

"Is this secondary?"

Myrohir, despite being a young queen, points out the short-sightedness of humanity as an immortal: "As a short-lived species, it is indeed encouraging to be able to see this step, but you still don't see the long term enough. Even without this crisis, the United Kingdom would have been in a helpless equilibrium for the next few hundred or thousands of years. As more and more land is reclaimed, the borders that need to be defended become longer and longer, and the output of internal resources gradually becomes less than enough to keep up with the consumption of the battle. ”

"The day will come when people will find that there is as much land lost in a year as they have been lost, that the territory of the United Kingdom will gradually stabilize, that people will no longer have the vigor to overcome obstacles, and that the world will enter a stage of equilibrium. At that point, there will be divisions within the kingdom, and when the reconquest is halted, many issues that have been put on hold will come to the surface. The physiological dislike of the other races towards the Ant-Man, the discord between the Dark People as an underground race and other races, the fundamental ideological differences between the Qin and Han people and the Western world, the long-term contradiction between the dwarves and the elves, the contradiction in the way of thinking between the immortal and the short-born, and so on. It is conceivable that there will be a few [border countries] that will take on the important task of [blocking] pollution for a long time, and at the same time, the intrigue between [mainland countries] will become the mainstream of the world struggle. ”

Myrohill recounted a terrible prophecy to the stunned general.

"At the same time, let us not forget that the main body of the world will still be in the hands of filth! The sea is still a terrible hotbed of filth, and every time it rains, it pollutes the earth. Countries with borders should face severe fighting pressure, while inland countries may gradually forget the pain of their borders. In the next few hundred years after the first stage of equilibrium, new grievances and contradictions will inevitably arise between the border states and the inland states, and the worst case scenario will be civil war: the border states will abandon their duty to defend against filth and invade the hinterland. In less than a hundred years, the world will usher in a new round of balance, and in this second round of balance, the territory belonging to intelligent beings will be greatly reduced!"

"Then people will reflect, reclaim the land again, meet the limit again, and enter the first equilibrium again...... History will repeat itself, and the world will go back and forth in two balances, and this is the future that we elves see. And the worst thing for us elves is that this time, we can't be left alone. We can't live in our own elven kingdom and be isolated from other races, but we will be held hostage by other races, repeating the same story over and over again in this futile cycle!"

Myrohill calmed down his somewhat excited mood and smiled at Li Guangfu: "This is the reason why the elders want to escape. ”

Li Guangfu was almost speechless, he looked at Myrohir who was smiling for some reason, and said in disbelief: "And you chose to stay, knowing all this, but you still chose to stay, and even did not hesitate to ...... for this."

"This is our responsibility as a race born into this world, and we will not forgive the evaders. Myrohir laughed.

"But, in that case, doesn't it mean that no matter how hard we try, we will not be able to completely recover this world!?" Li Guangfu said excitedly, "Then isn't all this in vain!?

Oh God, how did these elven royalties manage to smile in front of such a reality!

Myrohir looked at Li Guangfu's almost lost soul and realized that he had gone too far.

She was still too immature as an elven queen to forget the iron rule that she couldn't talk too much about the short breed.

But she really can't learn the misty way of speaking of the elders, and now there are no elves who can teach her, and those elf royal clans died just now.

Well, it doesn't matter, she doesn't need to hide it, she has to find her own style!

So she tried to comfort Li Guangfu, who was selected by her as the experimenter, and said: "Don't be discouraged, the general of the human race, the usual means may not be possible, but we still have hope in the other direction!"

"Really! What is it!" Li Guangfu didn't care about the etiquette now.

"If the true God can wake up now, then everything will be solved!"
