In fact, when leaving, someone just wanted to get away from Pilsen City, and had no plan at all about where to go. He just took the biggest path and walked along the road. And then... it became awkward.
It was before someone was seriously injured that he agreed to sell browser magic stones to the Magician Association in all the land. And in the more than a month since he was seriously injured, a lot of changes have happened in the world. Especially the users of the forum showed explosive behavior. The growth gives people the feeling that magician associations everywhere are ready and waiting.
As for what they are waiting for? It can't be someone agreeing to set up a fund so that various places can get rid of the intellectual property rights of the Midland version. Maybe only a few regional chapters are offering a bounty on someone's head. President. But now it seems that everyone is waiting for such a result.
Regardless of the matter that has been resolved, what were the original thoughts of all the parties involved. The explosive growth of users on the forum naturally brought several times the number of messages flowing to this mysterious version of the virtual platform.
The first one to be impacted was actually Kaya's forum indexing program. The original purpose of this program was to integrate related topics and organize them according to relevance. But now, it must be organized into two categories: characters and events. Duo Index Cloud will create another index. Otherwise, in addition to the search function, if you want to directly use time series to view recent major events, there will be too much stuff to see.
The reason why I am so interested in this function designed by Kaya is because no matter how much I don’t care about current affairs, I still have read the so-called "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle" in Sun Tzu's Art of War. As for the place you are going to, the general situation What it is, it doesn’t hurt to know a little bit about this aspect.
However, it would be better not to read it. After working hard to guide the dark-haired and brown-skinned girl to adjust the forum indexing process, and after reading the forum reviews along this path, someone wanted to take a detour. .
The "arrogance" of the elves is only more exaggerated than the rumors someone heard in the tavern before.
The Kingdom of Payat Jaime is actually a small city-state with a small population, mostly concentrated in the capital. But it is quite large and contains several high-quality grain-producing areas and many minerals, including some precious metals. mine.
The kingdom was established after the collapse of the elven empire in the past, when a few elves who retained their strength migrated here. At that time, this place was far away from the traditional areas of civilized development and was an out-and-out barbaric zone. After that, it experienced the silent development of human dynasties. Development, but in the dark age when a certain demon king ruled, the kingdom was destroyed once. After the light came, the survivors returned to the original location to re-establish the kingdom.
The resilience of such a race and country that has experienced turmoil is not comparable to that of ordinary emerging countries. Compared with the rumored romance of elves, in fact, if you study the national policies of the existing elven kingdoms, you will find that they are more pragmatic than many human countries.
Apart from anything else, let’s just talk about the dark days when the elves were like animals, constantly hunted by slave teams of other races, and then countless half-elves were born. Several elven kingdoms that survived those years, But they all use real swords to fight with others to create their own piece of pure land.
The price of being peace-loving is either being bullied by others, or being so cruel that no one dares to bully you. The existing elven kingdoms all follow the latter path.
The character of the entire nation is ruthless, and the individual strength is naturally higher than that of other races. It is not difficult to imagine how arrogant the character of this race will be.
As long as a stranger approaches, they will first suspect whether the person approaching has bad intentions. If there is any behavior that exceeds the rules, they will kill first and then investigate. Accidental killing is considered unlucky. Anyway, within the scope of their territory, those who bring seeds The military went to discuss with them whether sovereignty or human rights were more important.
As for the resources in their territory, for a race that has more druids than magicians, it is to provide extreme protection and then limited access. Even if it is a plant, a tree, a rabbit, a monster, outside the kingdom Adventurers who dare to come will be treated as poachers and illegal harvesters, and the only penalty is the death penalty.
Even if a monster that has no territorial concept of Homo sapiens goes outside the kingdom to eat people. The Avengers will cross the border to hunt monsters, and they will be treated as poachers, and the consequences are self-evident.
For travelers, if they want to pass through the Elf Kingdom, it is best to ensure that they bring enough dry food and water. If you want to catch some small animals for dinner, sometimes you can drink them. Drinking water will cause problems.
Under such circumstances, the few borders with other countries' territories are naturally subject to constant disputes. The Elf Kingdom also adheres to the attitude of cutting off hands and cutting off feet, firmly maintaining the integrity of the kingdom's territory and protecting the people within the territory. People, resources.
Therefore, what the elves call "peace-loving" actually means that I will not attack you, but please take a detour when you see me, and it is best for the two sides to never have any contact with each other.
It is precisely because the attitude of the entire country is very tough, and on the basis of the reason that doing more is better than doing less, someone wants to find a way around this troublesome country on the map. Although one of his own people destroyed the kingdom once Lord Demon King, it’s not difficult to do the same thing a second time.
Even if she is alone now, with only two or three kittens around her, if she wants to destroy a country by herself...it's better not to think about whether she can do it or not. Because someone can't figure it out herself, and herself. I wonder how far the relevant research has advanced this lich. So what I can make up for now is to try not to let this person go crazy.
It’s just that God never obeys people’s wishes...
The fork in the road that could bypass the Kingdom of Pyat Jaime was just ahead. But before they could turn smoothly and head away from that troublesome kingdom, a group of llama knights surrounded the two carriages.
Someone who was originally staying in the carriage, studying maps and information from various places, and calculating the next direction, noticed that the carriage stopped and there were shouts and screams outside, and he secretly prepared himself. , and then got out of the trunk. The first thing that caught my eye was a group of blue-feathered llamas with the same coat color, which looked quite dazzling.
You must know that Luo Bird is a monster. Apart from being unable to pull a cart or cargo, it is effortless to carry a heavily armored knight on a long-distance attack. Its endurance can be said to be the best among all conventional war riding. Simply put, relying on each With two ordinary horses pulling a cart, it was impossible to escape from the hands of a knight riding a camel.
Although llamas are good at running, they can still fly short distances and low altitudes by vigorously flapping their wings, or glide to the ground from high places. They can be said to be excellent war horses with no shortcomings. In terms of the difficulty of keeping in captivity, It is also much taller than ordinary war horses. To be able to use the same coat color and choose similar body types is something that ordinary organizations and forces cannot do.
Regardless of the envy, jealousy, and jealousy that surrounds the crowds of luxury cars of the same model and color that are the same as on Earth, the armor on these knights is also very attractive.
Except for one of them, the armor of the rest is obviously standard equipment, and everyone has the same gorgeousness. And behind this gorgeousness, there is a silent murderous intention. Some people will criticize the elves' equipment for being flashy, but usually those What people see are all elf-style armors made by human nobles, the kind that have only been superficially learned.
Real elf equipment, with its gorgeous textures and colors, but the genuine combination of magic patterns and magic materials, is completely different from the generally recognized enchanted equipment. When it comes to armor, we only pursue stronger defense. Lighter weight to get better flexibility. In terms of weapons, they are more durable, sharper, etc., constantly pursuing higher destructive power.
The elves don't add some weird magic to their weapons and equipment, they just want to defeat the enemy by surprise. Their pursuit of melee combat is better equipment and better martial arts. The former is just continuous strengthening. Attack power and defense power, and the latter is purely for honing one's skills.
For equipment of this level to be standardized and mass-produced, it is impossible for some second- or third-rate small organization to be able to do it. As for the person wearing unique armor, that is even more incredible. Even a layman can see it. It can be seen that the grade of the armor is one level higher than that of others, and it even faintly exudes the aura of magical power.
Is this the regular army of the Kingdom of Payat Jaime? Did it enter their country by mistake?
If you were an outsider with no sense of geography, you might be intimidated by this battle, but Lin was very sure that you had not entered the kingdom yet.
The difference between Lost Land and Earth is that there are still gaps between some countries. This is not because people don’t want to occupy it, but before occupying it, the natural creatures entrenched on it must first be eliminated, including king-level monsters. The development of Lost Land to this day The power is still unable to overpower the powerful creatures that exist in nature.
In addition to boundary markers, most countries choose to use natural borders to mark national borders, such as rivers, mountains, forest edges, etc. The national border line of the Kingdom of Paiyat Jaime in this direction is a line leading to the interior of the kingdom. The valley is a terrain that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is an important place that any force must seize.
This also means that walking from this direction, as long as you don't enter the valley, you are not entering the territory of the Kingdom of Pyat Jaime. So what are these people here for? But I have never heard that elves will also be bandits. , to rob the Tao.
Someone got out of the car and looked at the knights. They talked in Elvish, and their voices were very soft. Lin used the common language of Enchantment and said: "Everyone, I don't think we have invaded your country yet. Territory."
"Of course you haven't. This is an ownerless territory, and my main destination is to come to you." The one who also spoke in common language was the bird knight wearing particularly gorgeous armor. The voice was female, and
