Chapter 235 Leon never felt that he had a dark heart.
Alicia liked the food at Fort Wilson very much.
Although the elves sit in an entire Moon Shadow Forest and live in the endless forest, most of the berries taste weird under the influence of the black mist.
So that most ordinary elves can only roast the fresh wild fruits they picked on the eternal fire.
how to say?
The taste is very strange.
Even though Alicia, the queen of elves, would never have as simple a diet as ordinary elves.
But the problem is...
those berries that grow on the edge of the World Tree, even if they don't make you lose your temper after eating them, they definitely don't taste very good.
But it's different here at Fort Wilson.
Not to mention that when the people are farming, they must first disperse the black fog.
Today, the territory of the Jimena family can be said to span the Abandoned Land, Antolia, and the south bank of the Meyerson River.
Fort Wilson is surrounded by farmland, and food such as berries comes from the north of the mountains.
And on that piece of land, which is far wider than the Moon Shadow Forest, there are naturally more types of edible berries and other plants growing there.
Naturally tastes much better.
Even though elves don't eat meat, Alicia still loves the soft and fluffy white bread.
Of course, Alicia couldn't be doing it entirely for food.
She always remembers her mission as the Elf Queen.
So in these days, she has been observing everything happening on this land with her own eyes.
And everything here naturally shocked her.
From nothing to something.
With the World Tree once planted by the elves as the center, Fort Wilson can be said to rise from the ground on this plain.
Countless settlers from Antolia crossed the Bergori Pass and opened a new page in their lives on this land.
Street after street, building after building.
The city walls of Fort Wilson are being built in an orderly manner, and the farmland outside the city is continuously extending.
The Antolians are even trying to tame the skeletons that roam the abandoned lands!
Although she was unwilling to admit it in her heart, Alicia had already realized that the humans in front of her were far more diligent and creative than the elves!
Especially a few days ago.
She saw with her own eyes that the young Marquis of Antolia appeared in the city again.
And behind him were countless prisoners of war.
Alicia had of course received the message from Clementi.
According to the moon elf elder, the Antolians have achieved significant results in the human civil war. The tens of thousands of prisoners of war from Walras are the best proof of the strength of the Antolians.
Tens of thousands of prisoners of war invested in the construction of Fort Wilson without any trouble.
I am afraid that within a few years, this city will become the strongest fortress of the Antolian people in the abandoned land!
Humanity's return to the abandoned land has become an irreversible trend!
Just as Alicia was thinking about her next human observation plan, Leon sat across from her carelessly.
Alicia looked up.
Then she decided to frown to show her majesty as the Elf Queen.
Because this is what the elders of the Moon Elf clan taught.
Maintaining a cool attitude and a plain face is a required course for all elf queens.
Leon: "???"
"Her Majesty the Queen, do you know the Pig Man?"
Facing the threat from his second senior brother, Leon said straight to the point.
"Huh?"
Alicia shook her head blankly. "Antoria's scouts discovered traces of pigmen in the southwest of Fort Wilson. They ride tall bison on their crotches and seem to be quite hostile to all other races." Leon took the initiative to explain .
"Pigman?"
Although the moon elves are also the aborigines of the abandoned land, to be honest, this is the first time she has heard this name.
"Yes."
Leon said with great confidence:
"Fort Wilson is built on the west side of the Moon Shadow Forest. I think it is necessary for elves and humans to join hands to resist all potential threats."
In the previous Norton battle situation Among them, Leon has clearly realized the role that the elven long archers can play.
The elves' melee combat strength may be average, but the elves' long-range deterrence ability is definitely second to none in this era.
After all, Antolia had just finished a war.
It would be great if we could get one more helper.
After all, for now, the Antolians and the elves are probably on the same front.
Therefore...
risk sharing naturally became Leon's first choice.
"Does the Marquis want to cooperate with the elves?"
Alicia looked directly into Leon's eyes.
"Yes."
Leon nodded seriously: "And... aren't we already cooperating?"
The reason why he stated his request so straightforwardly was because Leon was completely sure that he would be able to handle Alicia's rejection if Alicia refused. , dragging the elves into the water.
The Moon Elves want the Shadow Manipulators from the humans, and Leon also wants the Elven Longbows from the Moon Elves.
You know, Clementi is now leading hundreds of elven long archers to be loyal to the Jimena family!
When the time comes for a volley of bows and arrows to be fired, even if the elves still only want to guard their own one-third of an acre, they will inevitably attract some hatred from the pigs.
The reason why he came to meet Alicia first was entirely because he was a progressive nobleman of the new era.
It's just...
After hearing what Leon said about cooperation, Alicia's face couldn't help but darken.
"Does the cooperation mentioned by the Marquis mean that only half of the business is done?"
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Leon's face naturally showed an innocent look.
"The Shadow Manipulator can only dispel the black mist! But it cannot make the World Tree become vibrant again!"
"Can't it?"
Leon couldn't help but have a flash of surprise in his eyes, and asked with a slight hesitation.
"Even with the help of the Shadow Manipulator, the World Tree of the Moon Elf clan only stopped withering, but it did not grow fresh branches and leaves like the World Tree in Fort Wilson." Seeing Leon's face was full of
innocence , Alicia couldn't help but become a little hesitant.
Don’t the Antorians know this either?
"That's probably because of the land compactor?"
After pretending to think for a long time, Leon finally gave an ambiguous answer:
"Your Majesty the Queen, the elves want to make another deal?"
Alicia: "... ..."
If the strength of the Antolian people is only average, then Alicia will naturally not give Leon a good look, and will definitely ask for the land compactor to be directly reissued.
But the problem is that the strength of the Antolians is enough to make the moon elves fearful.
Looking at Leon's innocent face, Alicia just felt that this nobleman had a black heart!
No more today.
