His sight passed through a colorful twisted passage, and what appeared before Ji He's eyes was a bustling city scene with countless green light spots floating in it.
Looking up, I saw a train full of flowers passing by at high speed on the track woven with green vines.
Taking a deep breath, a cool feeling spread across his chest. Ji He could clearly feel the excellent quality of the spiritual energy floating in the air of this city.
This is Ji He's first time coming to Elf City.
According to the data records in the database, this city was an important stop on Feng Qi's journey to the west when he chose the path of ascending to the gods and challenging the world in the previous timeline.
The emergence of the Elf City made them understand that the human forces in other areas had not completely fallen, and the central area had established a new growth system that cooperated with the life in the field.
But compared to the graphic records in the database, seeing it with your own eyes can bring you a stronger sense of shock, as if you have entered a different world.
The humans here have completely different clothing styles from the humans in Star City, and the city's architecture and supporting facilities are completely different.
Standing on the teleportation platform, he looked around and suddenly thought of a sentence Feng Qi left in the database.
This sentence is Feng Qi’s evaluation of Elf City.
[Every beautiful vision of human beings in the Eastern Region can be found in the Elf City, but the Elf City has no future.]
This sentence vividly depicts the prosperity and misery of the Elf City's future.
The prosperity in front of us is like a mirror, and it will eventually break. At that time, the Elf City will become a thing of the past.
The information gap allowed Ji He to see the outcome of Elf City one step ahead of time.
This will also be one of his bargaining chips.
At this moment, a figure flew towards the wind from a short distance away.
The visitor was wearing green gorgeous clothes, with a slim figure, delicate white skin, and long flowing light green hair. After landing on her feet, she looked at Ji He and said:
"Dignified guests arriving from Star City, I am the envoy from Elf City responsible for connecting with Star City. Next, I will take you to see the Elf King."
Before coming to Elf City, Ji He asked Star City's envoy to contact Elf City to get in touch with Elf City.
He explained that he came here because he wanted to talk to the Elf King.
Ji He nodded at this moment, and then flew towards the center of the city under the guidance of the envoy.
The location of the space station is not far from the center of Elf City. When selecting the site for the construction of the space station, the first thing Star City considered was how to meet the Elf King as soon as possible.
After all, if you want to cooperate with Elf City, the attitude of the Elf King is particularly important.
It can even be said to be the decisive key.
How to see the Elf King as soon as possible became the first consideration when Star City built a stable teleportation array connected to Elf City.
Under the guidance of the envoy, Ji He climbed over a hillside full of green plants, and what he saw in the distance was a giant golden tree that reached the sky.
At this moment, all the descriptions in the database are inferior to seeing it with your own eyes.
The Elf King standing in the center of the city is like a golden sacred mountain, bringing a strong visual shock and sense of security to Jihe.
The spreading branches and leaves of the giant trees weave into a large umbrella, covering the city.
Although the dense branches and leaves blocked the sunlight, they also shed countless tiny golden light spots, illuminating the city.
Under the guidance of the messenger, Ji He stood in front of the Elf King and looked up at the Elf King's majestic body.
At this time, the golden light spots floating between heaven and earth suddenly gathered in front of Ji He, forming a staircase leading to the Elf King.
When Ji He saw this, he immediately walked down the stairs towards the Elf King.
Every time you step on the golden stairs, golden water ripples will appear on the surface of the golden stairs, and the stairs behind you will disperse like smoke.
As he continued to walk up the stairs, the world in front of Ji He's eyes was gradually covered by gold, and finally he found himself in a golden space, with a kind-hearted old man looking at him with a smile.
"Dear guest of Star City, Elf City welcomes you."
"Elf King?!"
"it's me."
The white-haired old man nodded in response, and as he waved his hand, a stone table, a stone bench, and a tea set appeared in front of him.
Ji He came to sit down in front of the Elf King, took the tea from the Elf King, and after taking a sip, he felt his pores relax, and his mental fatigue and stress were swept away. At this time, he looked at the Elf King and said
:
"This time, I hope the Elf King can help me in Star City."
"Could it be that your star city has encountered some kind of crisis?" the Elf King said slightly surprised.
"It's not a crisis, it's a desire to take the initiative."
The Elf King couldn't help but frown after hearing these words:
"You want to take the initiative, but you want me, the Elf City, to send forces to support you. This... seems a little inappropriate, right?"
Ji He had already anticipated the Elf King's dissatisfaction.
After all, the Elf King is only responsible for the humans in the Elf City. From the perspective of the Elf King, Star City's proactive attack requires Elf City to send troops. The fruits of victory belong to Star City, but the losses are the Elfs themselves.
Ji He was already prepared for this.
He took out a folded map of Star City from his pocket, unfolded it and smoothed it out, pointing to the location marked "Splitting Sky Field" and said:
"This domain is controlled by the Split Sky God Clan, which occupies the north of our Star City. It has a serious impact on the development of our Star City, and it also poses an actual existential threat to the Star City. If this clan is not eliminated, our Star City will have trouble sleeping and eating. In this battle, only the elves will
The city is willing to send troops, and I am willing to promise the Elf City two benefits."
"What's the benefit?"
"If we win this battle, one-tenth of the spiritual resources produced will belong to the Elf City."
"Why only one tenth?"
"In this battle, the Mist Tribe, Silver Moon Tribe, and even Winter City are participating in the battle. The Elf Tribe is only supporting the attack. I agree to share one-tenth of the resources, which is very sincere."
"What's another benefit?"
Facing the inquiry, Ji He was silent for a while, then looked directly at the Elf King and said:
"If Elf City is destroyed one day in the future, I promise you that Star City will be your retreat."
After hearing these words, the expression of the Elf King, who had always been indifferent, suddenly changed:
"What do you mean?"
"What is the situation in the central region? You obviously know better than me. Anmu is getting stronger day by day and has taken control of the human army in the central region. The advantages and disadvantages between you and Anmu are gradually expanding as time goes by... If one day Anmu
Betrayed?"
Ji He's words undoubtedly touched the pain in the Elf King's heart.
Darkwood was cultivated by it personally and was also the best offspring in its eyes. Its growth talent far exceeded its own.
But it is a fact that Dark Wood is out of its control.
Now that the Dark Wood has not yet attacked, it is obviously to wait for the opportunity. Every minute that passes, the Dark Wood will grow a little faster than it. The reason for waiting is to defeat it more smoothly.
With the human combat power in his hands and his own growth potential, he is no match for An Mu.
When that day comes, its failure is already doomed.
When Ji He said these words, he was undoubtedly telling him that if the Elf City was destroyed by the Dark Wood, Star City would open its doors to the Elf City and become their shelter.
But there is something Ji He did not say clearly here.
The Elf King noticed it.
At this moment, the Elf King fell into silence. After a long time, he raised his head and nodded towards Ji He:
"Your request is very reasonable. One-tenth of the resources, plus a future retreat. I promise the Elf City to send troops, but I hope your Star City can keep its promise and open the door to protect the Elf City if it faces a crisis of destruction in the future.
"
"As a member of the Supreme Council of Star City, I assure you that Star City will always open its door of protection to Elf City."
"Contact the messenger in advance before starting the war. At that time, the Elf City will send troops to Star City in advance to prepare for the war."
"Thank you."
When the golden space in front of him dispersed, Ji He found that he had returned to the ground.
Looking up at the Elf King, Ji He had a smile on his lips.
This time he came to the Elf City for two purposes. One was to seek soldiers, and the other was to test the Elf King.
Feng Qi's evaluation of the Elf King in the authority database is: a domain creature with feelings for humans.
But whether the Elf King is completely reliable or not, Feng Qi cannot give a definite answer.
In the previous timeline, the Elf King once opened a way of life for the humans in the Elf City in a desperate situation. However, at that time, the Elf King had already reached the end of his rope, but many residents in the city still had hope of survival.
This is also the reason why Feng Qi commented that the Elf King has feelings for humans.
But in non-desperate situations, when the Elf King still has a choice, it may be a different story.
This problem has also troubled Ji He for a long time.
Is the Elf King trustworthy?
The answer to this question does not necessarily require Feng Qi to find the answer in the future. He feels that now is a good opportunity.
The conversation just now was his test of the Elf King.
The second benefit he gave seemed to be that if the Elf City fell, it would allow the Elf City to retreat into Star City and provide the Elf City with protection.
But there's a potential problem with this benefit.
The teleportation array connecting Elf City and Star City was obviously unable to pass with the Elf King's huge body.
The Elf King obviously understood this question.
So to explain this benefit, when the elf city is about to be destroyed, the humans in the city can retreat to the star city for shelter, but you, the elf king, are not included.
Faced with this question, although the Elf King remained silent for a long time, the final answer he gave allowed Ji He to find the answer to the question left by Feng Qi.
The Elf King's choice is to give the residents of Elf City a way out.
As for whether this promise was credible, Ji He had no doubts.
The Elf King in this timeline has limited knowledge of Star City, and is even less aware that Feng Qi has the ability to travel through the timeline, so his choice is enough to represent his true inner thoughts.
The choice of the Elf King will also add strength to the new future planned by Ji He.
Before coming, Ji He considered many possibilities.
Proposing the option of giving the Elf City a retreat, in addition to testing the Elf King's true feelings for the human race, there is also a long-term consideration.
If the Elf King agrees to the option he gave, when Daybreak City is established in the future, the humans in Elf City will also be incorporated into it, which will significantly enhance the overall strength of the human race.
What Star City lacks now is not resources, but the efficiency of converting resources.
This is also one of the reasons why he launched family planning. A huge population can effectively transform resources into the city's comprehensive strength.
As for the cultural differences between Elf City residents and Star City residents, this can completely change over time.
The Elf King's decision not only gave the residents of Elf City a way out, but also gave Star City an opportunity to rise.
When this trip came, Ji He received a satisfactory answer.
Returning to Star City, Ji He immediately recorded this information in the database and sealed it with the highest authority.
This information will also be handed over to Feng Qi in the future to provide reference for Feng Qi when formulating new development strategies.
…
Daybreak 422.
On this day, Ji He was looking through the database information.
At this time there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in."
The door was pushed open at this time, and a fully armed military soldier came to Ji He with a serious expression, and then said respectfully:
"Mr. Ji, the field field has been set up and is now placed in the underground square of the Psionics Department."
"Take me there right now."
After hearing these words, Ji He suddenly stood up and said.
Ji He then went to the underground square of the Department of Psionics, led by soldiers from the military department, and saw a colorful space crystal suspended in the sky above the square.
In addition to members of the military, there were also many members of the Elders of the Mist Tribe standing at the scene.
Upon discovering Ji He's arrival, the person in charge of the Psychic Department immediately came to Ji He and began to introduce the suspended space beads.
Through the introduction of the person in charge, Ji He learned that the structure of this bead is the same as the space node bead in the field field. It can be carried around and can be unfolded after triggering the internal nodes with consciousness to form a field field barrier.
"Mr. Ji, this field can be opened at any time. How do you plan to use it?"
"Send it to the military headquarters, and I will arrange when to open it."
After giving the instructions, Ji He turned around and left.
After returning to the office, Ji He immediately summoned the leader of the expeditionary group and inquired in detail about the transportation of the relics of the Silver Serpent Empire.
After learning that the relics and items of the Silver Snake Empire have been almost completed.
Ji He knew that his plan could be launched.
With this plan, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone, not only to destroy the Sky Splitting God Clan, but also to weaken the Silver Moon Clan so that the Clan could once again be in the leading position.
One and a half months later.
A domain field suddenly unfolded at the location where the human race was connected to the Sky-Splitting Domain Field.
This matter immediately attracted the attention of Star City, and the Star City Military Headquarters quickly assembled an investigation team to investigate the sudden arrival of the field.
As usual, the Silver Moon Clan envoy stationed in Star City asked the military about the relevant situation.
Star City and the Silver Moon Clan completely share surrounding intelligence. When faced with the Silver Moon Clan's inquiry, the military headquarters did not directly give a clear answer. They only replied that a field suddenly descended on the human race's territory to the north and that they were investigating.
Five days later, Star City brought back a batch of incomplete props and machines from the Unknown Field.
While bringing it back for research, Star City handed part of it to the Silver Moon tribe's envoy stationed in Star City.
When the envoys of the Silver Moon Tribe first obtained the relics of the Silver Snake Empire, they didn't think there was anything wrong with them. However, after conducting research, they suddenly discovered that something was wrong.
The familiar tracks engraved in the instrument made him fall into silence.
Feeling surprised and puzzled at the same time, the Silver Moon Clan envoy stationed in Star City immediately brought these relics back to Silver Moon City.
The elders of the Silver Moon Clan conducted detailed research on the mysterious items produced in the unknown field.
Just when the elders of the Silver Moon Clan were in disbelief, Star City immediately sent several relic stone tablets.
These incomplete stone tablets made the Silver Moon clan completely dumbfounded.
Because it depicts a lost history of their Silver Moon tribe, the murals on the stone tablet even describe in detail the historical process of the Silver Snake Empire's disintegration into multiple races.
Then a piece of bombshell news came that made the senior officials of the Silver Moon Clan completely crazy.
A picture was sent from the direction of Star City. The picture showed a huge jet-black machine. It was exactly the ultimate weapon that the Silver Snake Empire had built with the whole nation as depicted on the stone tablet. It was a terrifying mass murderer comparable to a miracle.
Miracles have many functions, but there are very few miracles suitable for combat.
But the design concept of this war machine from the beginning was for foreign war.
If the Silver Moon Clan can control this war machine, it means that the rise of the Silver Moon Clan will be unstoppable, and developing territory and resources will be as easy as breathing, and the surrounding forces will have no single enemy.
The ultimate machine brought temptation to the Silver Moon clan even beyond a miracle item.
The senior leaders of the Silver Moon Tribe went completely crazy and began to send inquiry messages to Star City. They wanted to know more about other relevant information about this field, and expressed their desire to form a team to explore the latest field with the human race.
Just when the Silver Moon tribe was going crazy over this, Ji He came to the military headquarters alone and held an internal meeting of the military headquarters.
This plan was kept secret from the outside world, and only the top brass of Star City knew about it internally.
The purpose is to get the Silver Moon Clan to take the bait, and at the same time prevent the Silver Moon Clan from knowing through Star City people and other channels that this is a trap specifically targeting the Silver Moon Clan.
Now that the Silver Moon Tribe has taken the bait, the next step of the plan can be implemented.
At this time, at the high-level meeting within the military department, Ji He glanced at everyone present, and then said softly:
"Everyone, let's get started."
A group of senior military officials stood up, nodded to Ji He and dispersed.
That night, the military gathered a secret team and took the initiative to attack the Sky Split Field.
The next day, we headed north to the front line.
Ji He stood on the top of the towering watchtower, looking into the darkness shrouded in the north.
At dawn, a red sun slowly rose from his left side, illuminating the world.
Ji He looked to the north where darkness had dispersed, and saw that the Sky-Splitting Field, which had not been moved for many years, was rapidly expanding, spreading towards the human territory, quickly connecting with the recently arrived field, and gradually swallowing it up.
The cold wind in the early morning blew Ji He's white robe, and he stood alone on the watchtower with his hands folded, unable to hide the smile in his eyes.
