Chapter 143 Elves Are Companions of Humans, Not Weapons! Proper Plan! Countdown to Arrival!
Zhu Jianyuan walked up to the steel-armored crow. At this time, the corner of the tough man's eyes twitched slightly.
"Xiao Liu... is the secretary of the City Lord's Mansion. Because he has the level of an A-level awakener, he was also assigned to fight against S-level dead beasts."
"To save his teammates... sacrificed."
"What people didn't expect was that his blue crow evolved into a steel-armored crow after his death."
He touched the steel-armored crow that was still working tirelessly to wake up its master, and said sadly: "The elves are very smart, especially the blue crow, who is far smarter than I imagined."
"He should know that his master is dead, but... he doesn't want to face it."
"It's a pity...Xiao Liu didn't see the scene of Haicheng people planting fruit trees all over the wild..."
Zhu Jianyuan did not elaborate on how Xiao Liu died, but Su Bai could imagine it.
If I had come a little later, that honest-looking shield warrior would probably have died at the claws of an S-class beast.
As for why the secretary of the city lord's palace is on the front line... Even the city lord Zhu Jianyuan is working hard, so the secretary can't stay away from it.
With great ability comes great responsibility.
Haicheng people, there are no cowards!
Su Bai looked at the Steel Armored Crow and sighed silently.
Elves like Steel Armored Crow are covered in black armor from top to bottom, and even their feathers are as hard as steel. After evolving, they are over two meters tall, even taller than humans.
Even with its wings folded, it looked like a huge creature, filled with a deep and fierce aura.
However, at this time, this big guy, who looked like it could make a child cry, kept sobbing at the corpse on the ground.
His deep red pupils were full of anxiety and sadness, and he gently cupped his master's body, not caring that he was still covered in bruises.
With an IQ that is not inferior to that of humans, it knows that its master is dead.
However, it is not willing to accept this result.
The secretary of the City Lord's Mansion is named Liu Jiantao, and he can be regarded as an acquaintance of Su Bai.
Zhu Jianyuan is very busy, and many aspects of things are actually handled by Liu Jiantao. For example, the fruit seed distribution plan is handled by him.
This is a very shrewd and able man.
Elves like the Steel-Armored Crow have very rich emotions, and are even very close to humans in terms of intelligence.
Being able to evolve directly for Liu Jiantao even though the training level is not up to standard shows that Liu Jiantao has a very good relationship with it.
In fact, the Steel-Armored Crow was not the only elf who stayed with his master's body and refused to leave.
Three swimming ring weasels, five formation soldiers, four blue jays and two snorkeling weasels were also wandering hesitantly next to their master's body.
Because of the special nature of the elves, as long as the owner does not want the elf to fight to the death, he can take the elf back at the last moment.
This means that as long as the elf is not killed instantly, the elf will not really die.
Coupled with the subsidies of wound medicine and various status medicines, it is very difficult for elves to die.
But humans are different. Injuries and other medicines are not effective on humans.
The healing potions in the human world are far less magical than the healing potions.
So in this battle, only human beings were sacrificed.
After Su Bai was silent for a long time, he asked: "What are you going to do with these elves?"
The elves are purchased by the city lord's palace. As long as there is no abuse of the elves or anything, the right to dispose of them naturally lies with the city lord's palace.
Zhu Jianyuan looked at these sad-looking elves and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Originally...to be honest, for the sake of the integrity of the Elf Legion, these elves should serve the next person selected into the legion."
"But seeing the appearance of these elves...I suddenly didn't want to do it."
"It would be cruel to do so."
"After these days, especially when the blue crow evolved into the steel-armored crow, I understood a truth."
"Elves are not weapons, elves are our companions!"
"Even if we want to replenish the Elf Legion, we will not force them to serve without the consent of these elves."
Zhu Jianyuan thought for a while, and said to Su Bai: "I remember... there is a storage center in your elf center?"
"Without the master's training, if these elves stay in the city lord's mansion, I'm afraid watching other elves and their masters train...it won't be good."
"Can the City Lord's Mansion sign another agreement with the Elf Center?"
"We put the elves of the fallen soldiers in the storage center. If there is a new warrior to replace the sacrificed soldier, then we will let him go to the storage center to give it a try."
"If this person has a way to get along with the elves in it, then lead the elves back to the City Lord's Mansion."
Zhu Jianyuan said resolutely: "These elves... are also heroes of our Haicheng, and I will not let them suffer any grievances!"
"It's just... there is a problem that is not easy to solve."
Zhu Jianyuan looked at Su Bai and pleaded: "The storage center uses nurturing points, but in this situation... nurturing points will be a bit difficult..."
Su Bai sighed and nodded, of course he knew what Zhu Jianyuan meant.
Zhu Jianyuan's attitude towards elves made him very pleased.
Ordinary high-ranking people, especially in this kind of doomsday world, elves will probably be regarded as a weapon, right?
Maybe the people in Kyoto also think the same way.
But Zhu Jianyuan didn't, and instead regarded the elves as companions.
Things that seem to be taken for granted are actually not so rational for the city lord.
Of course, Su Bai likes this kind of irrationality very much...
Just when Su Bai was about to communicate with the system to solve the problem, the system's voice rang.
[For the victim’s elves, the storage center will charge a symbolic fee of one federal coin and store them permanently. 】
[Please note that the above terms are limited to victims. 】
After two brief sentences, the system fell silent.
Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief, the system was still powerful.
He nodded and said: "Don't worry, City Lord Zhu."
"Your solution is very good..."
"Anything sent to the elf storage center only needs one yuan of federal currency, and it can be stored permanently, so you can rest assured."
Zhu Jianyuan heaved a sigh of relief, just now he was still considering, if Su Bai couldn't use the federal currency instead.
The entire elf legion was responsible for the nurturing points.
Although this would inevitably delay the growth of the Elf Legion, Su Bai had many secrets. He knew that Su Bai also had many unspeakable secrets, and he never thought of forcing Su Bai.
On the contrary, it was Su Bai's answer, which was a pleasant surprise for him!
Zhu Jianyuan smiled and patted Su Bai's shoulder lightly: "Since you are here, then your task over there is also done, right?"
Su Bai nodded and said, "Yes, the trainers have all grown up..."
Zhu Jianyuan and Li Zhi looked at each other, and suddenly laughed loudly: "That is to say... we succeeded?"
"Have we laid down enough places for the coming of the elves?"
"The elves who can change the world will appear around Haicheng soon, right?"
At this time, Zhu Jianyuan was excited like a child.
Seeing this, Su Bai couldn't help but chuckled softly: "That's right...the elf that can change the world...will appear soon."
His eyes were fixed on the deathly energy surrounding the horizon.
The arrival of the elves... has entered the real countdown!
