Chapter 611 The shadow of the Vanilla Archon is covering the Elf Forest!!
The Moon Kingdom and the Dwarf Kingdom have carried out many cooperative projects.
In addition to the key project of alchemy experiments, the magical materials are studied in parallel with mechanical engineering and forging technology.
There are also some conventional livelihood projects, such as the use of hydraulic ore washing machines, the technical prospects of mine ventilation, hydraulic forging hammers, and optimization research of mine structures, etc.
In short, both the Dwarf Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom will benefit from such cooperation.
Of course, His Royal Highness the Dwarf Prince had to return to the Dwarf Kingdom in shame.
However, with the dwarf prince's strenuous efforts, he was allowed to come to the resort to relax for three months every year.
These are already very relaxed terms. After all, a round trip from the Moon Kingdom would take several months.
After dealing with the cooperation issues related to the Dwarf Kingdom, Rand is about to set off to the Elf Forest to rescue the Vanilla Archon.
Of course, the real reason is not to help Vanilla solve the problem of working overtime without overtime pay and without rest all year round.
This problem is indeed big, but the real problem is that the war in the Elf Forest is about to officially begin.
Now the influence of the Vanilla Archon has become stronger and stronger. Facts have proved that facing the long-term solidification of the Elf Forest, the people of the Elf Forest are not dissatisfied, but they are just suppressing it.
Now, a leader has emerged who advocates opening up to the outside world, developing oneself, and pursuing the improvement of the quality of life and productivity of civilians. Suddenly, many elves have decided to support the vanilla archon.
Now, the elven nobles of the other two factions had to send soldiers to patrol the border to prevent the elves from continuously trying to sneak into the area controlled by the Vanilla Archon.
The two factions of the elves now have realized the potential of the elven reformists. They have clearly realized that if they do not launch a war as soon as possible to annihilate this faction, and wait until the elven reformists are fully developed, there will be no need to fight the war.
And at such a critical period.
Rand, the sponsor and the mastermind, is going to the Elf Forest to secure his own interests.
And in the Elf Forest, there are secrets that Rand wants to know.
"Then it's time to set off again." After Rand said goodbye to the dwarf king and queen, he looked at the wronged dwarf prince with pity, then turned back and said to the top leaders of the Sanctuary.
This time, Elsa and Lysa will accompany Rand to the elf forest.
…
At this time, the Champs Elysees Kingdom was discussing the relevant countermeasures against the Moon Phase Kingdom.
This issue was discussed five months ago and three months ago.
Five months ago, it was not until several days after Elsa, the horrible killer, left Champs Elysees that the kingdom's top professionals dared to report the relevant matters to the ministers and the king.
The king of Champs-Elysées was extremely angry and incredulous about this.
The king thought that was just the result of the top professionals being afraid of death.
But soon, from the attitudes of several top professionals, the king and ministers of Champs Elysees Kingdom realized that there might really be a terrifying and powerful person in the Moon Kingdom.
It is quite possible that top professionals are afraid of death, but if the top professionals of many different professions are terrified and dare not resist, then it means that this existence must be extraordinary.
Therefore, the relevant retaliatory actions were left unresolved.
Three months ago, the Champs Elysees Kingdom learned that the Moon Phase Kingdom had defeated the ships of the former naval fleet of the Boren Kingdom.
This made the Champs-Elysées Kingdom stop thinking about re-repurchasing the former naval fleet of the Bolen Kingdom.
Today, this issue is reopened, naturally because there are new considerations.
That is, when they learned that a considerable part of the Boren Kingdom's naval fleet was still on the move, they wanted to swallow up these fleets, but now they no longer want to continue to be hostile to the Moon Kingdom.
So the problem they have to solve now is how to swallow the fleet of the Kingdom of Bolen without intensifying the conflict with Rand.
The Kingdom of Champs-Elysées is located close to the Endless Sea in the south, and is plagued by mermaids, fishmen, nagas, and human pirates in the Endless Sea.
They urgently needed a fleet to guard their territorial waters. The previously established fleet of the Kingdom of Bolen was a little too large for them, so they had been hesitant.
But now, it is exactly what they need.
"So what should we do now? Our people have made contact with the remaining fleet of the Kingdom of Bolen, but obviously, we can't anger Rand Nicholas too much now." The king of the Kingdom of Champs-Elysées looked at his ministers.
"I think we can first contact the Moon Kingdom and try to establish friendly relations. We can spend some money to ask them to deal with the remaining fleet on our behalf." said the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Champs Elysees Kingdom.
"Does anyone have any other suggestions?" The king of Champs Elysees looked at his ministers again.
The kingdom's ministers either remained silent or expressed support for the Foreign Secretary's proposal.
In fact, ever since Ranta and Chad destroyed the cooperation between the Bolen Kingdom fleet and the Champs Elysées Kingdom, the number of nobles in the Champs Elysées Kingdom who are hostile to the Moon Phase Kingdom has increased.
At times like this, when it comes to vital interests and national security, everyone starts to think rationally again.
The same is true for the king of the Champs Elysees Kingdom. At this time, he doesn't need to consider his face too much, but should consider practical interests.
Perhaps only some young and impulsive kings would want to save their fate when they are about to die.
Now, if the Champs-Elysées Kingdom can help Rand deal with the remaining pirate rebels of the Boren Kingdom, it will be beneficial to Rand.
Because Rand can no longer handle so many fleets, and can't spare too much energy to deal with these pirate rebels.
So as long as they can provide benefits to Rand, Rand will probably be very willing to hand these things over to them.
It would be a win-win situation then. The Champs-Elysees Kingdom would get a fleet to deal with territorial issues, and Rand would no longer have to spend energy chasing after these escaped pirates.
According to the analysis of the Minister of State, the current development focus of the Moon Kingdom should still be on land.
And if we continue to be hostile to Rand.
Rand's army definitely cannot defeat the Champs Elysees Kingdom as the distance between them is ridiculously long.
This does not mean that Rand has no way to deal with the Champs-Elysées Kingdom.
It now appears that Rand holds a lot of troublesome cards in his hand.
For example, there are those two troublesome people, Ranta and Chad, and there is also the terrifying killer who scares even the top professionals.
Compared with these troubles, the king and ministers of the Champs-Elysées Kingdom still felt that it was much more cost-effective to give Rand some benefits in exchange for the opportunity to deal with these fleets.
…
It's another somewhat long journey.
Rand finally arrived at the present capital of the Elf Forest Reformers - Giantwood City.
This huge elf town built in front of the giant tree makes people feel prosperous and vast at first glance.
Only with the help of elven druids who can communicate with plants can an elven city be protected by trees, thus building such a majestic city that coexists harmoniously with nature.
Rand was quite interested in these elf features, but he didn't stop to watch them now.
Rand was about to line up to go into the city.
Here, today, the city is less hostile to humans than it once was.
The Elf Reformists advocate not limiting their vision to the Elf Forest, but looking to a wider space, such as the vast ocean and the prosperous human living areas.
Nowadays, thanks to the human technology and human materials that have been publicized, at least the elven residents of Giant Wood City have felt some of the excellence from the outside world.
Not all elven residents can feel this, nor do all elven residents like this, but at least some elven residents have felt it.
Even if this feeling is very weak.
Such a slight change in perception has brought about a significant change in the elves' overall view of humans.
At least now some unarmed humans have entered this majestic Giant Wood City, and everyone is more inclined to believe that they are here to transport supplies rather than to capture slaves.
And now the human slaves in the city will be treated better than before.
These changes are still fairly preliminary, but Rand sees them as a very good start.
Show your identity and then go into the city.
Vanilla had already arranged for people to wait here, so Rand only waited in line for a while before being recognized and then entered the city through a special channel.
There are now a lot of elves queuing up in front of Giant Wood City to enter the city. Many of them seem to be elves who have fled here from other places. They are ragged, pale and thin, and look hesitant.
Rand also observed that many elves had determined eyes, and some were even eager to try. Perhaps they came to join the reformist army to defend the ideals of the current vanilla archon.
Walk up hundreds of steps to the upper floors of the city, where the administrators’ residences are located.
Rand soon met the current competitor for the throne of the Queen of the Elven Forest, Vanilla Moonshadow, the governor of 12 cities including Greatwood City.
The residence of the Vanilla Administrator is located at the highest point of Giant Wood City. It is a palace that is far more complex and luxurious than the Rand Palace.
The morning light penetrates the layered canopy of leaves, gilding the frosty white palace. The pointed arches with silver reliefs and the crystal dome supported by icy columns all highlight the ingenuity of the palace designer.
The sunlight refracted through multiple facets, turning into thousands of silver threads that fell on the central fountain. The emerald fountain pool was filled with amber liquid and morning dew. Looking up, one could see the relief sculpture on the dome flowing - the living star-silver vines were growing slowly along a predetermined trajectory, and the light spots leaking from the hollows moved on the glazed floor tiles, like broken diamonds accidentally dropped by the gods.
Rand walked through these beautiful palace architectural designs and soon saw the elven archon Vanilla, who was lost in thought in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
Vanilla was wearing a moonlight silk robe, looking down calmly at the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front of her, at the entire Giant Wood City where her will was implemented.
Rand saw the light in his eyes as blue as the vanilla sky, as if the essence of the sky and clouds gathered there.
When they first met, Vanilla indeed already possessed the temperament of a future queen.
Then, noticing Rand's arrival, Vanilla's expression could no longer be maintained.
The dignity that Ben should have as a consul disappeared in an instant, and Vanilla's face fell instantly, and she said, "Your Majesty! Save me!"
At first glance, I thought that Vanilla was not here to be the archon above all the elves, but to go to jail.
Rand snorted coldly and arrogantly: "Now you know how good our Sanctuary is, right?"
Vanilla nodded vigorously, agreeing deeply with Rand's words.
In the past, when she was an elf slave girl working in the sanctuary and being exploited by Rand, Vanilla often suspected that Rand was an evil lord who liked to exploit the labor of slaves.
For Vanilla, that was a time when she often worked overtime, and even on her nice days off she would be forced to work from time to time.
Although Rand will try its best to make up for the occupied vacation time, there are times when it cannot be adjusted and the vacation is just eaten up.
However, Rand will definitely pay her overtime pay for overtime work, and unless it is particularly urgent, Rand will not ask Vanilla to come back to work after she has left work during non-working hours.
Moreover, Vanilla's office and residence are very close to the entertainment and rest areas of the sanctuary. After get off work, Vanilla can go to the tavern to order a glass of mixed juice, or go to a restaurant to eat and drink, or watch some dramas or take pictures of dramas to relieve work stress.
Now Vanilla wants to repent for her past doubts about the great, kind, wise, tolerant and benevolent Majesty Rand! As expected, Majesty Rand is so friendly and kind. Under Majesty Rand, she only needs to work 10 hours a day, and has precise off-get off work time and fixed holidays.
Then, after losing the protection of His Majesty Rand, all the cruelty of the outside society bombarded Vanilla.
Vanilla has a deep understanding of what it means to work full-time and never have a holiday.
This is simply a nightmare!!! Although saving and changing everything in the Elven Forest was indeed Vanilla's choice from the heart.
Vanilla really wants to learn from what she has seen and change some things.
The Elf Forest was a solidified amber and a silent tomb in the past, and Vanilla wants to bring some life to it.
But working 24 hours a day is really not something a normal elf can bear, right? No matter what time it is, once something happens, there will be servants to report it. Some things that can obviously be decided by the subordinates will also be reported to Vanilla for the decision.
There were also often elves who would deliberately cause trouble in order to see the face of Archon Vanilla so that Vanilla could deal with it personally.
Not to mention that there are always some elves who want to test Vanilla's bottom line, or really want to fight for some immediate benefits or power.
In addition to getting the job done, it's really annoying to have to engage in intrigue with some stupid people.
From time to time, there are extremely unskilled people trying to assassinate her. Doesn't she know that her teacher is the black dragon wizard Nidhogg?
The work is never done, the enemies to be defeated are everywhere, the political procedures are imperfect, and the military training is ruleless.
Vanilla felt like she was going demented.
"Help! Your Majesty!" Vanilla said again.
