Chapter 619 The Ancient Tree of War
Chapter 628 Ancient Tree of War
"This place is still so dilapidated!" Roland looked at the desolate Changhu Town with a hint of helplessness and nostalgia.
"After being ravaged by dragon flames, I can have some fun even if I can leave a frame behind..." Ormsk frowned. The destructive power of a pseudo-dragon is no different from that of a giant dragon to the civilians here.
"So... Is this why you asked me to rock the boat here?" Ormsk said with a black eye, as he was a hero and was actually working as a coolie under Roland.
"Hahaha! We're almost there!" Roland patted Ormsk on the shoulder and changed the subject naturally.
"..." Ormsk rolled his eyes, Yun Feng is the wronged, I'm sorry, Yun Feng will never fall for such a clumsy way of changing the topic.
"Huh? There are actually residents?" After jumping onto the scorched pier, Roland discovered that there were still many residents living on the old site of Changhu Town!
"My lord, don't you know something? It would be great to have a place to stay in this chaotic world! Although this place is a bit dilapidated, it can still be lived in after repairs!" A woman who was doing laundry was dissatisfied. He glared at Roland, apparently blaming Roland for standing and talking without his back hurting.
"Haha, that's true!" Roland nodded with deep understanding. The fish in Chang Lake were abundant. These refugees who came from afar would at least have a safe livelihood when they settled here. Moreover, without farmland, they could only fish to feed themselves. The fresh and tender white fish from Chang Lake nourished their thin bodies, making the homeless people's faces rosy.
"Madam, I want to ask how many people are there here?" Roland looked curiously at the scorched Changhu Town. He could still smell the burnt charcoal of Longyan in his nose, but among the ruins, there were only a few small buildings. The brand new wooden house looks out of place in this environment. It is obvious that it was built by a latecomer.
"There are probably more than 300 people..." The woman looked at Roland with some worry. Roland looked cool and handsome in his well-dressed outfit, but he was mainly followed by a fully armed Ormsk, who was covered in heavy armor. The woman's eyelids twitched when her feet stepped on the wooden board, for fear that the wooden board would not be able to support him.
"There are not a few people. Are you under the rule of King Bard?" Roland said and handed over a gold dragon coin as a reward.
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you for your generosity, sir! Is there anything I can do for you?" The woman immediately put on a smile and bowed quickly. She is very knowledgeable. A gold dragon coin can make a family of three happy. It's been a few months.
Because they are both northern kingdoms, there are a lot of private transactions between the several kingdoms. Changhu Town happens to have a geographical advantage. People from Akvia, River Valley State and Lagrand Kingdom will gather in Changhu Town to conduct transactions. Trading, the entire Long Lake has also come back to life because of fishing and trade! Although the current population is not too large, it is obvious that Changhu Town will still be a surrounding trade center in the future.
"No need!" Roland waved his hand and Ormsk left and walked towards a more central place.
"This Changhu Town is built on an island!" Ormsk looked at the foundation tunnel exposed under the collapsed house. At first, he thought Changhu Town was floating on the water!
"Well, Changhu Town has always been the territory of the River Valley State, but it has a high degree of autonomy. This is why Bard's ancestors arrived here and became civilians after losing the River Valley State..." Roland sighed.
The prosperity of Changhu Town gave the mayor the confidence to say no to the descendants of Girian who had lost their family dogs. Changhu Town rejected the rule of the descendants of Girian... Without the deterrent of force, the descendants of Girian could only integrate into Changhu Town as civilians. , it must be said that it is really ironic that a town mayor actually refused the legal rule of the lord...
It can only be said that the north was in chaos at that time, and there were no lords with big enough fists. Otherwise, he would have faced a crusade from the noble coalition by relying on his rules of provoking the nobles. Roland can still be sure of this. Those nobles can do anything they can't do. , can be the first in terms of combating heretics. Challenging the aristocratic order is simply seeking death. If it had been until now, Roland would have sent troops to crusade. After all, the butt determines the head.
"Ding! Successfully checked in at the historical location! Changhu Town! Honor point*1!"
When Roland walked to the original town hall, the system's voice finally rang. Roland let out a sigh of relief. He almost thought there were no honor points to earn here!
"Six points of honor!" Roland narrowed his eyes excitedly. He had already set his sights on a good thing, and now he can redeem it.
Ancient Tree of War: A companion creature of the elves, a tall ancient tree with wisdom and amazing defense and attack power! It is one of the elves’ heritage! Quantity: 3! Price: 6 Honor Points!
That's right, Roland is eyeing the elves' ancient tree of war. It's not that a team of warriors can't afford it, but the ancient tree of war is more cost-effective! Compared with having a hundred more mouths, Roland prefers the ancient war tree that can survive by taking root in the earth. Besides, this thing has another advantage!
As we all know, the grassland elves are elves without a home, and the Elf King Verwei is also a wild king. Without the support of the magic well, the grassland elves are far less powerful than the woodland elves and star elves, let alone those ancient elves. With the power of the elven holy sword Manicati, Valve probably couldn't beat that good-for-nothing Thranduil.
There are three elf treasures: the magic well, the ancient tree of war, and the ancient tree of life. Unfortunately, there is no prairie elf. Why? The prairie elves don't even have a stable clan territory, so where can they get three big ornaments? That is to say, Roland wanted to win over the prairie elves with good intentions (it was definitely not that Roland was eyeing the prairie elves' combat power, but mainly that they were too pitiful) and was preparing to take the prairie elves under his command. As for his promise to help Verway become the elf king... …Isn’t that simple? When Roland became the Emperor of Laglan, didn't he give him a title? From this we can see how kind and selfless a person Roland is! In order to help the grassland elves, they actually gave up other professional armies and chose the ancient tree of war!
What? You said Roland annexed the grassland elf tribe? What a fool! Since ancient times! The Rangers of Lordaeron are an integral part of Lagrand's army. The Rangers of Lordaeron have elven blood, so is there anything wrong with the elves being an integral part of the Lagrand Empire? As Emperor Lagrand, how could Roland be so superficial? Seeking happiness and development for the intelligent races in Middle-earth is the responsibility and obligation of the Laglan Emperor! As for the current collapse of the Lagland Empire, it also needs development.
"Your Highness? Your Highness!" Ormsk looked at the giggling Roland and felt a chill in his heart. Isn't this King Mader useless after dying over and over again? Come back and giggle all day long? Ormsk kept this in mind. It seemed that he needed to find someone to show King Roland. Although this king was unreliable, at least he was a good person. Ormsk did not want Roland to die in an accident.
"Ahem! Okay, I've seen it, let's go back!" Roland's eyes regained their clarity. He coughed a few times and waved his hand to signal Ormsk to go back with him.
"Okay!" Ormsk nodded. No matter what, it's good that Roland didn't act like a monster. Ever since he lost Roland once, Ormsk has been very wary of Roland. He secretly thought that next time this guy runs around blindly, he will be the one to do it. The verdict is given to him...
Please give me a monthly ticket to reward me. Thank you bosses for your rewards.
