Chapter 109

When the sun rose from the ancient wood forest in the East, the heavy snow all night also subsided a lot under this rare good weather. The Golden Dawn sprinkled on the snowy earth, dispelling the cold winter.

The tower not far away is like a knight in a silver cloak. The heraldic flag of the Fred family is still flying at the top of the tower, silently announcing to Loren Turin that he has reached the border of the human world.

Crossing here into the ancient wood forest is the territory of the elves.

Lorraine, who turned down his saddle and took the reins, walked over - he had read in vimpal's library that the elves regarded human dismounting as a sign of kindness.

I don't know why, these elves didn't live in the tower, but built a temporary camp nearby. A fence made of branches surrounded several exquisite looking tents.

"Are you really going to take the risk?"

Asriel, who followed him, tilted his head curiously: "these elves don't seem to be easy to deal with. What if they decide to kill you?"

"First of all, they came to ask for help from the Duchy of lottel, and I am the wizard adviser to the Duke's successor. If they kill me, the Duchy of lottel will... Well, even if they kill me, the Duke will not declare war on them; but since they came to ask for help, they will always lower their posture?"

"Secondly, Asriel, if you can share my worries a little, we don't have to look for these elves at all." Loren said in a very regretful tone, "but it's a pity, you ~ no ~."

"... dear Lauren, you are becoming more and more capable of telling cold jokes."

As he approached the camp, Loren raised his arm a little. The helpless boy sighed and turned into a black feather Eagle again and landed on his shoulder.

"Don't come any closer, stranger. Explain your purpose."

A slender figure blocked Loren's only way, and behind that figure, it seemed that more people could be seen.

Although he was wrapped in a thick leather coat and cloak, his figure was much thinner than anyone Loren had ever seen, like a tall and straight branch; Fire red hair tied into a capable horsetail at the back of the head, revealing a pair of sharp ears; Emerald eyes watched the black haired wizard's every move with vigilance.

The man holds a long gun in his hand. The top of the two meter red grip is a gun head that emits bright silver light and looks like a willow leaf; There was also a hide package on his back, tied with a few shorter shotguns.

"I am the count of shenlimburg, the heir of the Principality of lottel..." lorenton paused: "... A wizard consultant of... Loren Turin, I come with friendship!"

When the man heard the first half of the sentence, he was ready to salute Lauren. After hearing it, he immediately showed a somewhat angry expression: "the man we want to see is Duke lottel. We have nothing to talk about with you!"

"But if you want to enter the territory of shenlinbao, you must get the consent of the count of shenlinbao, and I am His Wizard adviser and concurrently his military manager." Loren impolitely robbed Sir Aaron of his title: "only I can help you meet the count."

"Let him in, Leah." a more steady voice came from the camp: "we can't refuse a friend with friendship, let alone a guest."

The spirit named "Leia" reluctantly stepped aside from the road, threatening Loren sincerely bowed to the spirit, and then walked in without scruples.

A group of elves took Loren to the campfire in the middle of the camp and surrounded him. The elf named Leia never looked away from him and stared at him like a thief.

While walking into the camp, Loren never forgot to observe these "elves" - their bodies look much thinner than ordinary humans, but their limbs are still very powerful, leaving only shallow footprints in the snow.

It seems that the difference between elves and humans is not just sharp ears

"It's a great honor to meet you, Lord Loren Turin." the elf who just spoke came up to Loren and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand: "I'm afraid to disturb you. I hope it doesn't cause any anxiety."

"Not at all. In fact, we welcome you very much." with a formulaic smile, Loren shook hands with him: "it's my honor to receive you."

This is an elf who looks a little older. Although it is different from human appearance, it can also see the wrinkles on both sides of his forehead and cheek; A huge scar extends from his forehead to his chin, making his originally beautiful face look a little scary.

"You can call me Luca." when the two sides sat down, the elf named Luca asked, "surely our stationery has been delivered?"

"That's why I'm here." Lauren looked at Luca sincerely with a righteous expression: "although we haven't met, please believe me and swear in the name of the holy cross that I will do my best to make an alliance between the two sides!"

"For this reason, I thought for a long time and made a full plan; to be honest, after receiving the news of your arrival, I didn't stop for a moment, so I rushed here directly, because you really don't allow me to wait!"

The tone of the black haired wizard was so sincere that even the elves around him were confused - how did the human wizard care so much about the elves?

"Er... I don't know. How are you going to help us?"

"Before discussing this matter, I think we must recognize the reality." Loren suddenly changed the topic and showed a very embarrassed look: "that's the Duke of lottel. He may not be interested in supporting the elf settlement in the ancient wood forest."

The voice fell, and Luca, sitting in front of Loren, also showed an embarrassed look and coughed gently: "... In fact, we don't need the Duke's army, as long as we can provide us with some materials."

"With all due respect, it's difficult to do even that," Lauren sighed, "because it's an unequal exchange for both sides."

For a long time, the elves of the ancient wood forest had never left there, and the Duke of lottel was not interested in conquering this barren land.

After all, the elves can only provide him with some exquisite sculptures, amber, and ogre leather and teeth. For these things, it is not worth him to conquer a group of races that are fierce enough to fight against ogres.

However, these elves could not completely leave the Duke of lottel - although the elves living in the ancient wood forest did not lack food, they were seriously short of iron ore. Without iron ingots, they could not forge weapons.

Using wood guns and stone weapons against ogres, the results are obvious.

In such a situation, it must be impossible for Duke lottel to support the elves with more supplies for a pile of amber and statuettes; After all, although the Principality of lottel has its own iron ore, it is not rich land after all, and it has not reached the point of free support.

Luca obviously knew this, but did not give up: "is there really no hope? We have guarded outside Shenlin castle for so many years and never let any ogre settlement cross the border!"

"But it's not worth mentioning in the Duke's eyes. Forgive me for saying that!" Loren immediately explained: "you may not know, but the Earls of shenlinbao in the past have always been fighting the Duke. Maybe they wish you could let the ogre pass the border!"

Hearing these words, the elves finally became silent and looked at each other. They didn't know what to say - what could convince a lord sitting in a principality?

"Didn't you say you had a plan?" the elf called "Leia" who kept staring at Loren said, "why don't you just say it and linger here for a long time?"

"In fact, I do have a good way to persuade the Duke to provide support for the elf settlements in the ancient wood forest." Loren smiled and a little imperceptible pride flashed across his eyes.

"Moreover, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - you can not only get support, but also form an alliance with the Principality of lottel for decades!"
