Chapter 794
In the morning of second day, the Silver Eagle scout set off. It is a few days before the snowy moon, and countless snowflakes are flying above the woods. The weather is very cold, but the snow layer on the forest floor is not too thick. It happens to freeze the muddy ground formed in the rainy season, suitable for the team. March fast.
Silver Eagle scout must climb the mountain range of Azores in the distance before the heavy snow seals the mountain. Elus Moonsong is worried that when tracking the human expedition, he will get too close to the other party. The silver eagle scout revealed his whereabouts. Therefore, she chose to take a long route and asked her subordinates to march quickly, trying to find a place to camp and rest on the mountain in four days.
Actually, her worries are unnecessary. The straight-line distance between the abandoned camp and the mountain range of Azores is about 800 kilometers. The Randal expeditionary force only needs one day and one night to reach the foot of the mountain. In the past, the expeditionary army only traveled an average of more than 200 kilometers a day in order to replenish supplies. If it was a rush march, the Silver Moon Scout would have been thrown away long ago. At this time, the expeditionary force led by Nelson and Charlotte had already started climbing, and even if the Silver Eagle scout marched straight, they couldn't catch up with them.
However, Elus chose a detour for Victor to determine one thing, halfling adventurers can follow the secret road signs left by other halflings. Silver Eagle Scout You Qiqi doesn't have to worry about losing Bobo and Tiantian's team.
Qiqi sits with his ferocious black wolf, walking at the forefront of the team to lead the way; the wizard warriors all walk, they use the unique Breathing Technique to save energy, their footsteps are light, and the marching speed can be comparable to that of a horse, but it can’t Talking on the way; short-legged dwarf guards ride on bighorn sheep, but they are the easiest to wear heavy clothing. They talk and talk along the way without stopping, allowing Victor to learn the attributes of the dwarf.
"Victor, Victor, Victor...your name is weird, uh, I mean the pronunciation is weird, I still call you Nightingale."
"Nightingale, this is called By the way, you may be a famous person in the future... By the way, is your original ethnic group called Nightingale Village? Is there any text? I mean, you can't read? Haha, I guess you can't read... Oh, I'm not a joke of you , I’m happy. Yes, I’m just happy... Famous people must be literate, it doesn’t matter if you can’t read, I can teach you, so I laughed happily, haha, I can teach a famous people, praise the moon god, praise the hills, praise My beard..."
Victor glanced coldly at the chattering Aeglo Graybeard, and said angrily: "Has anyone told you that you are really annoying?"
Aiglo patted the big horn sheep with a thick neck, and continued: "This is the enthusiasm of a dwarf, like a flame in a furnace, warming people's hearts, like a spring breeze, sweating, and raging... I can understand your irritability, but I Will teach you to read..."
Victor drew out a bone arrow with a calm face, pierced the bighorn lamb with his backhand, and then the tuberculosis dwarf was taken away by his mount.
This trick will make Victor's ears clean for 5 minutes. Then the other dwarves will take Aeglo's position and run over to chat with Mr. Nightingale.
Dwarves like to brag and show off, their big mouth is like a door that cannot be latched, crackle can speak a lot of things, without the slightest sense of secrecy. Of course, they have regarded Mr. Nightingale with the high elf bloodline as a companion, and removing those worthless nonsense, Victor has a deeper understanding of the Spirit Emperor kingdom and the elf city state from the dwarves' nagging.
Most of the people of Silver Eagle City are wild elves. They are not as delicate, elegant, and love nature and art as humans think. In fact, more than 80% of wild elves are illiterate, savage and militant, and brave and sturdier than ordinary humans. Victor feels that the wild elf warrior's acting style is close to the fictional Amazonian warrior of Earth world, and she likes to treat prey and enemies cruelly. Of course, the male to female ratio of wild elves is one to one, and family status is determined by the strength of the husband and wife. Every year in March of the Water Season, adult unmarried wild elves compete in hand-to-hand martial arts, regardless of gender. The winner chooses a partner, and the loser is selected.
At this point, wild elves are very similar to Barbarian, and humans often unite because of love, at least for romantic love. However, wild elves will have a love life after marriage. The so-called romantic love of elves is purely human imagination. The reason is simple. The physiological characteristics of wild elves are different from those of humans. They become adults at the age of 20 and activate fertility only after marriage. Female wild elves conceive once every two years on average. The ordinary person category is 15-year-old adults with almost no fertility restrictions. As long as they mature, they will pursue their favorite objects in the name of love.
Compared with tree elves and moon elves, Victor pays special attention to the wild elves with the largest population base. Their living conditions determine the overall strength of the Spirit Emperor kingdom, which can be compared with the human kingdom.
The average lifespan of wild elves is longer than that of humans, the population size is smaller than that of humans, and their individual strength is stronger than that of ordinary persons. According to the life level standard of the Spirit Emperor country, wild elves are the second rank wisdom species, analogous to jackals; humans can only be regarded as First Rank creatures, which are the same level as goblins and murlocs. To describe it in detail, all ordinary wild elves are agile divine archers and can skillfully use the 1.7-meter elven longbow. Human elite longbowmen must receive rigorous training, and the shooting level is not necessarily comparable to ordinary wild elf hunters.
However, there is no upper limit to the level of human life. There will be a naturally violent warrior in every 7000 people. Ordinary warriors can also show the characteristics of violent violence after receiving secret training. The ferocity ratio of wild elves is pitifully low, which can be described as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.
Although the life and other levels of Elf Race have strong barriers, the Spirit Emperor nation popularizes the combat Breathing Technique, has a very complete power inheritance system, and even extends to the servants of the elves. The citizens of Silver Eagle City can be illiterate, but they must systematically learn the combat Breathing Technique and combat skills.
The psychic bloodline secret method created by Victor is universal. Due to the limitations of divine technique resources, pharmaceutical resources, food resources, and armament resources, it is almost impossible to achieve universal coverage, which is bound to be the privilege of the elite.
In terms of the level of civilization, there is no gap between the two generations, and it is an indisputable fact that the Spirit Emperor country is more dominant. The weapons used by the silver eagle scouts are excellent. The ordinary iron essence and golden sword have been forged and beaten by the dwarf blacksmith, and their density and tenacious are higher than human iron essence weapons. The armor piercing, sharpness, and sturdiness are not lost to Knight. Dedicated adamantine weapon.
In terms of economy, trade, and military politics, the Spirit Emperor adopts a high degree of autonomy of city-states and villages. Like Silver Eagle City, there is no compulsory taxation and forced conscription of lower-level villages and towns. Since the low-level residents do not have to pay taxes or perform hard labor or military service, they live a rich life and possess disposable private property, thus promoting the development of city-state trade. The spirit city states use gold, silver, and Copper Coin that they minted as currency in circulation, but the spirit Emperor country uses amber as the basis of the entire currency system. The prestigious city-states in the autonomous city-states monopolize market trade. They control the shops in the city, while the residents of villages and towns go to Yinying City for consumption and shopping and sell products through these shops. Famous city-states will also form caravans to engage in hiking trade between the city-states.
Although the villages and towns of the Spirit Emperor country do not need to pay taxes, they will actively and consciously donate properties and gold coins to the Council of the Queens and Women, and pray for the noble moon god rites to give the seeds of the moon tree on time to ensure The normal operation of the Moonlight Well in villages and towns. They have no military service. When the Silver Eagle City Council is mobilizing for war, the autonomous villages and towns will also send troops.
Sun Tree and Moon Tree are the core of the political system of the Spirit Emperor. Victor believes that the upper class of the Spirit Emperor State does not levy taxes and does not enlist for the sake of laziness. What makes him angry is that the Spirit Emperor State can smoothly absorb excellent talents without doing anything.
The elf capital of Elanta holds a solar blessing ceremony every 36 years on average. The younger generation fighters of various city states want to participate in the blessing ceremony hosted by the elf queen. For example, the Silver Eagle scouts convened by Elus Moonsong are all young warriors in Silver Eagle City. If they recapture the sacred relic of Goddess of the Moon and make meritorious service for the Spirit Emperor, once they go to Elanta to receive the blessing of the sun, More than half of them will choose to stay in Elanta. In the same way, the young warriors in the elven village wanted to join the famous gate of Silver Eagle City and receive the blessing of the moon tree.
Excellent combatants flow to the city-state famous gates, and the elven villages below have no strength to challenge the authority of the city-state council. In the long run, Elanta has formed a strong cohesion with the elven city-states and the elven city-states on the lower-level villages and towns. Even if they adopt an almost lazy policy of high autonomy, instead of weakening the empire’s dominance, it reduces the ruling class and the ruled. Class conflicts.
In the final analysis, the number of high elves is too scarce. There are only 16 adult moon elves in Silver Eagle City. They live at the apex of city-state politics and occupy the most city-state resources. However, each month elves can only give birth to one or two elves. This offspring, they don’t have to fight for power, and they don’t have the energy to manage the villages and towns below. The political turmoil of the elven city-state is limited to the middle class represented by the tree elves, which is also a small contradiction within the city-state, and it is definitely not as fierce and sharp as the political struggle of the Human Kingdom.
How many city-states and villages there are in the Spirit Emperor Kingdom is still unknown. Generally speaking, the fertility level of the elves and servants is low, the population grows slowly, the mobility of personnel is poor, and the life of the bottom of the society is stable and prosperous. Although the overall strength of the Spirit Emperor kingdom far exceeds that of the human kingdom, they do not have strong power. Willingness to open up.
Victor believes that the probability that the Spirit Emperor nation poses a threat to the Human Kingdom is very low, but it is also very difficult to develop diplomatic relations with them and to conclude an offensive and defensive alliance.
However, if the target of the Black Blood Demon is the native species, then the human kingdom needs the strong support of the Spirit Emperor kingdom very much.
Even with such an important sacred relic as "Freya's Tears", only the Silver Eagle City in the Spirit Emperor country has dispatched an informal scout team to find out. With such a sloppy style of high elves, Victor suspected that he would wash himself and buy it as a package to the elves Imperial Family. I am afraid that he would not be able to promote the alliance between the Spirit Emperor Kingdom and the Human Kingdom.
In the evening, the Silver Eagle scout marched about 300 kilometers in a hurry. After asking Victor's opinion, Elus ordered the camp to rest. The wizard warrior still retains the fighting stamina, but no one wants to move anymore, sitting on the ground one by one running the Breathing Technique to restore their physical strength. The energetic dwarf guard is responsible for chores and vigilance. They are very good at brewing and ironing, and cooking is average. Dried meat and sweet soup with dry noodles are dinner. Joking, bragging, and singing with a loud voice are extra side dishes for the dwarf.
After everyone had a lively dinner, the elves and warriors all climbed to the trees to rest, and the dwarves stayed in the middle of the night. In the second half of the night, the elf warrior took turns to take a rest with the dwarves. Several female war dancers quietly escaped into the depths of the forest. Two of them were in charge of guarding. The rest took off their Battle Armor clothing, facing the cold night wind, and holding their swords on the snow. Practice the Breathing Technique of war dance.
"Nightingale, you should be underage, right?" Yiluth Yuege silently jumped onto the branch, came to Victor's side, and said softly.
Victor carefully observed the war dancers practicing the Breathing Technique, and asked without turning her head back: "What do you want to say?"
Eloth was a little discouraged, she wanted to imitate the dwarf Make a joke with Nightingale, but she knows that Nightingale is actually impossible to be interested in wild elf women. The big elves do not reach adulthood until they are 60 years old, and only after marrying the moon elves can they understand love. Neither the wild elves nor the tree elves can attract the attention of the big elves.
According to Ruth’s estimation that Nightingale is less than 50 years old, he is interested in the elves’ fighting Breathing Technique, so he turns to say: “This is the war dance Breathing Technique. It’s best to practice naked in the moonlight. Although there are clouds in the sky, they can’t hinder the connection between the moon and the elves. They are all grown up, so we have to practice separately with their male companions, because we don’t want to find a mate now... the elves who have given birth to a child, the moon tree or the sun tree treat her The blessing will be greatly reduced. We will not talk about marriage until we are promoted to the tree elves, or even to the moon elves. If the promotion fails, we can only choose a suitable partner to start a family."
"Nightingale, your race Inheritance of the breath of the Moon God?" Yiluth couldn't restrain her inner desire, and finally asked.
"Breath of the Moon God?" Victor turned his head, looked at the Spirit General army of wild spirits with heterochromatic eyes, raised slender eyebrows, and said, "Well tell me."
p>Iruse lifted up and whispered: "The great Sun Tree gave birth to the first month elves and the first big elves. Each of their descendants is a moon tree, which will look like The moon tree breathes like that and absorbs the power of moonlight that way. The earliest Breathing Technique was passed down by the moon god Freya. Legend has it that the cultivated Breathing Technique can naturally promote the moon spirit. We all call it the "breath of the moon god". "
"Do you think I master the'breath of the moon'?" Victor stretched out his slender white fingers and stroked Yiluth's eyebrows. The movements were soft like the wind at night, and the palms rubbed her rough and tight. To, with elastic cheeks, he asked: "Or any Breathing Technique that allows the elves to naturally promote is the'breath of the moon god'... What about your Breathing Technique?"
Nightingale's With a natural demeanor, Yilusi, who was stroking her cheek by him, was at peace, as if she was bathed in the bright and flawless moonlight with neither offended resentment nor the slightest amount of sentimental thoughts.
"Do you want to see my original Breathing Technique?" She stared into Nightingale's deep and charming eyes and asked seriously.
"If you don't mind...Of course you can." Victor looked flatly nodded.
Eluth suddenly felt ridiculous. Obviously she showed him the mystery of Breathing Technique, but Nightingale put on a graceful gesture, so as it should be by rights.
The idea of unfathomable mystery flashed away. Yuege generously stripped off her armor, revealing a slender body and mysterious war dance magic lines. Her muscle lines are well-proportioned and angular, like A female moonsaber full of power and beauty.
Victor really wants to tell the Spirit General army that there is no need to take off her clothes, but she has already taken off all of them. It is embarrassing to let her wear it again, and it will damage the style of the sword saint of Stormrage.
Eluth concentrates on running the Breathing Technique, and the white mist sprays out from her nose, forming a vortex that is condensed and does not disperse. It seems that there is only exhalation but no inhalation, but the magic lines on the surface of the body are faint Relaxation and rhythm, as if living branches are breathing air. She felt a gentle and soothing wind pouring into her body from her skin, and at the beginning she was swimming with her breathing rhythm. Gradually, the cool wind pushed her breathing rhythm and changed her breathing method.
Iluth, who closed her eyes tightly, could stop demonstrating the Breathing Technique, but her instinct told her to seize this precious opportunity. She relaxed and let the endless wind take her to breathe. With the change of Breathing Technique, her spirit was infinitely elevated, and she broke through the dark clouds and saw the bright and flawless silver moon.
The silver-white moonlight is like water mist, with the breeze as a bridge, penetrates into her body, and continues to nourish her mind and bloodline.
"This is my advance payment to you... You have to remember that every elf is a moonlight tree, but the moonlight tree and the moonlight tree are different... the moon god for you Breath may be the poison of other elves."
Nightingale’s voice went away from her ears, and Elus had no time to take care of her. Her mind was completely immersed in the joy of cultivation "Moon God’s Breath".
