Chapter 234 The Abnormalities of One's Own Intelligence Channels
The actual situation isn't that urgent...
The Emerald Forest covers a vast area, and the scattered forest dwarf tribes form a loose tribal alliance. Because the forest is rich in resources and backed by the powerful elf forces, the forest dwarves live a very prosperous and peaceful life.
The information obtained from the Wind Fairy reveals that only one forest dwarf tribe has accepted the challenge, while there are hundreds of forest dwarf tribes living in the entire Emerald Forest.
Therefore, even if the human race could defeat them, and even if the human empire were determined to break through the Emerald Forest despite the risk of angering the elves, it would still take a very long time.
The question is, why did the humans suddenly attack the forest dwarves?
The message that the Wind Fairy sent to Pupusop was quite clear: the attack on the forest dwarves was carried out by a large number of hired wandering warriors. The reason it was said that the human empire was behind it was because there were organized small groups of troops supporting the wandering mercenaries. The Wind Fairy's side was still investigating which human empire it was.
To be honest, the intelligence information was so comprehensive and specific that Shu Xin suspected that the kingdom from which Popsorp originated was using this information to curry favor with the Land of Sin.
Shu Xin immediately sought confirmation from the Tree of Life, wanting to know if this "human empire" was the Blatzman Empire, since this human empire was the only one that had any connection with the river elves.
Unexpectedly, the Tree of Life's response was that it could not be explored.
Shu Xin was stunned when she received this answer. The Tree of Life had always seemed to know everything and be omnipotent, and she had almost come to believe that the Tree of Life was truly all-powerful.
To be honest, Shu Xin is increasingly inclined to believe that the force behind the wandering mercenaries is the Bretzman Empire.
If one did not have a clear understanding of the powers of the Tree of Life, why would one deliberately and precisely conceal one's own information? This is truly a case of "protesting too much."
After sharing the Tree of Life's answer and her own speculations with the officials who came to report the news, Shu Xin offered her opinion: "We need to have our own intelligence channels."
It's possible to take advantage of the wind sprites, but relying solely on Pupusopp is definitely not enough. Although she has signed a magical contract, she is, after all, a spy from a foreign land. It would be safer to establish an intelligence department belonging to the Land of Sin.
Garnar used mist to encircle most of the kingdom. Regardless of his intentions, this did provide a certain degree of protection for the naive flower fairies. Correspondingly, it also isolated the Garnar Kingdom from the outside world. If it weren't for the Tree of Life, Shu Xin would probably be completely lost.
The problem is, can the flower fairy really be sent out to gather intelligence? Shu Xin is very worried!
"What are your thoughts?" Shu Xin asked her thoughtful subordinates.
Shan grinned, his tone very cheerful: "That's easy! We just need to go outside and capture lots of humans and fairies, and bring back their heads and souls!"
...It was indeed a very simple and crude method. Humans could be picked and captured, but the innocent fairies were best left alone. Shu Xin did not express her opinion directly, but turned to look at Peng Peng An and Nuo Nuo Li.
Peng Peng'an's idea was similar to Shan's, but he was considering a different direction. Instead of going out to capture people, he was waiting for them to come in: "Our territory can hold the Wind Market now, right? When the alien races come to participate in the market, we can receive news from the outside world."
Shu Xin shook her head: "It's not a good time to hold a market in the wind."
Xi and Lanjiao went to the Demon Realm. They have been gone for a while and it is unknown when they will return. If they do return, they will definitely bring a large number of hybrid demons with them. It would be safer to wait until these new demons have been converted and settled before holding the Wind Market. In addition, relying solely on the Wind Market to obtain information would be too slow.
Nono had also thought of the Market in the Wind, but hearing the Flower Fairy's meaning that the time wasn't right, he pondered and slowly said:
“Most of the flower fairies with both strength and intelligence in other territories have become patrol officers. Our warriors in the Land of Sin are no less capable than the patrol officers. Perhaps we can use a magical contract to protect the souls of our warriors and then send them out together with the ‘Dark Moon Elves’ to gather intelligence?”
Shu Xin thought this idea was great, and she immediately nodded: "I think it's a good idea!"
To gather intelligence and information about the outside world, it would be best to send people out. Shu Xin's biggest worry was that the flower fairies who went out would be harmed or even lose their lives. Nuonuo's idea reminded her of this.
This is a magical world! We can absolutely use magic to protect the flower fairies!
The river elves, once so innocent and kind, were reduced to the point of near extinction because they were too naive and trusting of their human "friends." But she was not a true river elf; her mind was full of suspicion.
Afterwards, we can hold a meeting to discuss and try our best to set up a complete and detailed magic contract to protect the flower fairies who go out. We can also equip the flower fairies with teleportation rune stones so that they can teleport away directly in case of an emergency.
Speaking of teleportation, it was only when the alien fairies arrived in the Land of Sin that Shu Xin realized that not all races could use various teleportation spells as casually as the flower fairies.
Perhaps it was their shared sense of being strangers in a foreign land that brought them a common feeling of being adrift and lonely. After arriving in the Land of Sin, apart from Barbaria who worked hard to save money to buy a house, the other three fairies would occasionally get together. After learning that they would meet regularly, Shu Xin, although a little embarrassed, still went to the Tree of Life and browsed through their meeting details.
The fact that flower fairies could so easily draw teleportation magic circles in various places was quite unbelievable to the otherworldly fairies.
Because the water sprite Dedemarin is a priestess, she can use divine magic to cast teleportation spells, while the wind sprites can only obediently use teleportation magic circles. However, neither the water sprites nor the wind sprites can draw teleportation magic circle diagrams.
From their exclamations, Shu Xin learned that regardless of race, one needs to possess extremely superior spatial perception to become a spatial mage proficient in teleportation magic. The consequence of rashly attempting teleportation magic without the relevant talent is a direct and tragic death due to various forms of spatial displacement.
The alien fairies found it hard to believe that all the flower fairies possessed not only different magical talents but also formidable spatial perception. They ultimately concluded that the flower fairy race was likely a reclusive spatial-type spirit.
If the otherworldly fairies knew that, given enough magical power, a flower fairy could teleport herself anywhere regardless of distance using only a magical vessel inscribed with teleportation runes, they would probably become even more convinced of their own ideas…
Shu Xin didn't think much of it. She just felt that since the River Elves were a race created by the Tree of Life, which was formed from the divine essence of the Creator God, they must have special talents. The fact that they could use teleportation magic at will was probably a manifestation of these special talents.
Because it was a crucial event that could potentially affect the safety of the Kingdom of Ganar, Shu Xin convened a meeting of all officials to brainstorm ideas.
Finally, after being perfected by the Tree of Life, a magical contract that could protect the flower fairy from body to soul, from emotions to magic was freshly made. The two parties to the contract were naturally the Tree of Life and the flower fairy. It has to be said that with the Tree of Life as a backer, Shu Xin felt particularly at ease.
In addition to the flower fairy warriors and demons mentioned earlier, the intelligence team for the trip also included a flower fairy merchant. After all, all flower fairies who can become merchants possess mental magic and can distinguish between good and evil, friend and foe, without relying on their brains but only on their magical talents. This can be considered an extra layer of insurance.
With the flower fairy merchant, the wind fairy merchant was naturally brought along as well. After receiving the notice that they could continue to go out to do business, Qinqinlaer's whole family of wind fairies were very enthusiastic and eager to sign up.
In this way, the flower fairy can become familiar with the outside environment more quickly under the guidance of the wind fairy, and at the same time, she can better contact various forces under the guise of doing business. Of course, it would be even better if she could make money by doing business along the way.
After arranging everything properly, Shu Xin finally had time to reflect on the unusual things she had noticed earlier.
There's nothing wrong with the fact that the Garnar Plains border the Emerald Forest, and it's normal for forest dwarves to live in the forest. However, if we follow the order of the undead phantoms that attack during the Harvest Month, the races living near the River Elves should be orcs and goblins.
When the River Elves were besieged by the human magic puppet army, the first wave to come to their aid were the Wind Fairy and Water Fairy. These two fairy races now live not far from the Garnar Plains. Crossing the Emerald Forest would take them into the sphere of influence of the fairy and human races.
The second wave to investigate the situation consisted of orcs and goblins. They arrived quickly and left just as fast, indicating that they were not too far away. However, the orcs and goblins currently live in the southern part of the Lefra Continent, while the Garnar Plains are located in the northern part of the continent. It's impossible for them to have teleported across the entire continent.
The third wave came from the Feathered Race, also known as the Feathered People. They also live in the southern part of the continent. Even though they have superior racial talents and extremely fast flight speed, it is impossible for them to cross the entire continent in a short period of time.
Among the friendly races that arrived later, it's understandable that the giant eagles and unicorns arrived slowly. They still live in the southern part of the continent and must have traveled across the entire continent to get here.
The second to last are the Treants. They have been in the northern part of the continent, but their racial characteristics determine that their movement speed is quite slow.
The last to arrive was the Great Horned Deer. Although they were the slowest, the entire tribe mobilized. Perhaps the distance was too far, or perhaps the distance was close but the entire tribe's strength was needed, which delayed them. Of all the races that came to rescue the River Elves, only the Great Horned Deer perished on the Garnar Plain.
So Shu Xin spent a lot of time carefully and meticulously inquiring about the continental structure three thousand years ago from the Tree of Life.
