Chapter 37 I’m not only greedy for my body, I’m noble

"Very good, that's enough." Lann nodded with satisfaction. "I can go into the forest alone, but I hope that before I come out, you will stay outside the forest and be accompanied by our soldiers."

Hearing this, the tree spirits behind were shocked: "Ellie, no!"

Lann continued: "I can be more generous and let her, she, she -"

He stretched out his hand and pointed at a few tree spirits who had not drawn their bows and made attacking gestures just now: "I can let them accompany you, so that you will not be alone."

Ellie frowned: "What are you paying attention to? Human being."

I will take you as a prisoner to ensure my safety. Lann thought to himself, but if he wants to say this, he must embellish it.

Lann said: "I said before that I would negotiate an equal agreement with you and let my people live peacefully with you. I was serious about it - of course, now you are not the first to raise the conditions. You have already given up this right."

"I hope this can be a good start: I will go deep into the forest alone to find the princess, and bring the princess back safely to express my trust. And you can also take this opportunity to get along with humans for a while and feel our sincerity."

This passage was not something Rann came up with on the spur of the moment.

In fact, as early as when Lan knew that his territory was Brochlon, he became interested in this territory that played an important role in the original work.

But no matter what Lan En's plan is, his first priority now is to find Ciri.

This kind of thought was not much at the beginning, because he knew that he would not be able to manage the territory in less than a year, and he would eventually lose it all when Cintra destroyed the country.

Therefore, the current role of the territory of Cintra Blochlon for him is to provide tax revenue and give him a little financial capacity to arrange for his men to search for information and collect the magic items that he expects to be the source of magic. That's all.

That's all.

From this point of view, Lann is not yet a qualified earl.

When Lann, an obvious male heir of the ancient blood and the royal family of Cintra, is here, it is hard to say who will provide shelter to whom. It is better to be a wandering knight for safety, at least to hide.

Moreover, the resources that a border town can provide are too few. Not to mention supporting an army of Rann, even maintaining their own self-defense force with a population of a thousand people is a big problem.

Dryads are not absolutely exclusive. After Nilfgaard invades, the Dryad Queen will also provide blessings to the Scoia'tael, which is composed of elves, dwarves and other demihuman races, and will also train a Geralt girl-hunting team in the future.

Member of: Milva. And Milva is a human being.

But now, perhaps due to fate, after Lan En came to Brochlon for a field trip today, he felt that he had seen another possibility:

The greatest resource that Cintra Blochlon can provide him may not be the original value of this territory at all, but its geographical location "near the tree spirits".

He doesn't want to be that kind of person either.

When he came to look for Ciri this time, Lan was invisibly blessed with the power of the entire country of Cintra, giving him the basis for a brief conversation with the Dryad Queen.

Even if Queen Calanthe fails to destroy Brokilon in the end, Lan will come back to avenge Ciri when she becomes invincible with the system.

The dryads are elite archers per capita. They have rare healing abilities on the mainland, and they also possess the water of Brochlon, which is most likely the source of magic.

Bringing the topic back, after hearing Lan's request that was close to "exchanging hostages", the tree spirits started a heated discussion.

If you really can't become a demon hunter, you can find a safe place to live for five, ten, or twenty years with only one-third or less of the system. In the end, even if you can't make a comeback, you can at least be able to come and go as freely as you can in the world. The knight errant.

If he waits for his individual strength to become stronger and stronger, and then raises a private army willing to follow him before the destruction of Cintra, will he have enough power to still retain a viable force after the destruction of Cintra? , so that after the country is destroyed, he will become a homeless dog and become homeless?

In the end, Airlie thought for a moment and made a decision, then nodded and said, "Okay."

The relationship between tree spirits and humans is very complicated, not just a simple "feud". Tree spirits will use men of other races to reproduce, usually elves, and in a few cases, humans. These men will leave children. Afterwards they are driven out of the forest, and some even remain reluctant to leave.

If something unexpected happens to Ciri, then what he said to scare the dryad will definitely come true. Queen Calanthe is really reckless when she goes crazy.

She turned around and summoned a dryad and said to Lan: "This is Dunka. She can speak Common Language and will be your guide to help you find your princess."

The title of earl was a title bestowed upon his father by the Queen. The title given to Lann was closer to that of a palace noble. He was not the kind of established nobleman who had been worked hard for generations, and he had little real power in his hands.

If it doesn't work, Lann thinks he can be a little aggrieved and provide some seeds for the dryads and give them a few descendants of the ancient blood. This is a win-win situation.

It's just that Lann doesn't have the qualifications to use the resources of these tree spirits yet, and it's too unequal to talk about cooperation status now. In the royal capital, he is the martial arts champion, the queen's nephew, and the new star of the royal family. Facing the tree spirit queen, he is nothing more than He is a small town lord.

And since the dryads are all women and cannot give birth alone, their reproduction depends on human men, which makes them conflict with humans but at the same time has the slightest basis for cooperation.

In this regard, Brokiron's financial support for him was not as helpful as the Lannister family property and Calanthe's free reward.

Compared with Ellie, Dunka's dress is more "natural". She wears a flower crown on her head, bracelets and anklets made of grass and branches, and a short skirt made of bark and leaves. But Her upper body was almost uncovered, and the only thing that could cover her chest was her hair.

Lann looked over and recognized that this was one of the more sensible tree spirits from before.

Therefore, Brochlon was not originally in Lan's future plan. He was more inclined to defect to Geralt's wolf sect of demon hunters together with Ciri, or simply hug Mossas' thigh.

This is also part of the reason why the towns of Shikoku near Brokilon did not have a real large-scale conflict with the tree spirits. No one among humans knows how many of their daughters there are among these tree spirits.

The shadow of the destruction of Cintra has always shrouded his mind, and he has been looking for his own way out.

The matter has been decided, and for now this is the best outcome acceptable to both parties. If it continues to be delayed, who knows what unexpected situations will happen.

Lan briefly explained to the soldiers on his side, then rode into the real Brokiron with the tree spirit Dunkar.
