The towering and huge cloud canopy tree is a very rare tree species even in the whole ancient wood forest - whenever the elves decide to settle somewhere, they will sow cloud canopy tree seeds on the flat land.

From tender green branches to towering ancient trees, every cloud canopy tree will multiply and grow with the settlement of elves until the whole settlement is included.

This magical tree has an incomparably huge crown, and the branches will gradually form a wide platform. The thick branches connect these large and small platforms like stairs.

The exquisite wooden houses are located on those high platforms, forming rows of villages. Delicate green vines and flowers swaying with the wind are beautifully decorated.

The shorter platforms and the ground are planted with all kinds of fungi, which thrive in the shade of cool and humid trees; Lush fruit trees surround the ancient trees, and flying birds and beautiful butterflies can be seen everywhere.

At the top of the tree crown is a long and exquisite house surrounded by green vines. Even in the cold wind that has not faded in winter, there are still colorful flowers.

"In the name of the Earl of shenlinbao, ruvin Friede, I would like to extend my sincere greetings to the elders of the morning star forest in lower Loren Turin!"

Standing under a delicate chandelier, the black haired wizard bowed to the Elven elders in front with the most impeccable actions with a humble smile.

Completely different from human beings, almost all of these elves settlements, large and small, have their own elders, composed of elderly people in the settlements. These elders formed the assembly of the settlement to discuss and decide all the big and small affairs of the settlement.

More than a dozen elderly elves, wearing robes and crutches, frowned and stared at Loren surrounded by them.

Although I knew when I talked with Luca that these elders were not friendly to mankind, I didn't expect such "courtesy".

"It's a great honor to meet all the distinguished elders. It's a shame to say that I have only made some small contributions to the next wizard consultant. How can I become the messenger of the count? But since Lord Lu Wen has decided, I have to make it difficult..."

"Cough... Lord Loren Turin." an elder sitting in the center finally couldn't help: "can you make it clear why the Duke of lottel is willing to support us?"

"Why?" Lauren still kept a smile on his face. "With all due respect, you took the initiative to ask for help, and we just responded to it - or did you not expect the Duke to agree from the beginning?"

"Of course we hope he will agree!" the old man quickly grabbed it and hesitated: "but we don't believe he will provide help for no reason. It must not be unconditional?"

"Of course not," Luo ethics replied.

Before this sentence was finished, the surrounding Elven elders immediately became restless and argued excitedly. Their eyes at Loren immediately became more unfriendly, although they were not friendly at all.

"Go back and tell your duke or count that the elves in the morning star forest will never bow down to him!"

The cold faced elf elder suddenly stood up with a crutch: "even if we are defeated by the ogre, even if we lose our home, we will never ask him..."

"Sorry, you asked me a question first, so please let me finish first." the black haired wizard smiled and cut off the elder's impassioned speech directly. The coughing old man suddenly staggered and fell down in his chair.

"Neither the count of Reuven nor the Duke of the Principality of lottel will ever ask you to surrender!"

With his hands behind his back, Loren's voice increased twice: "in order to help you resist the invasion of Ogres, the whole principality of lottel will stand behind the morning star Forest Elves. Of course, it is definitely not without cost."

"As a wizard, I can fully understand why you don't believe in human beings - after all, who can wholeheartedly trust strange ethnic groups?" the black haired wizard said, "but you must also stand in my position to understand why the Duke will lend a helping hand."

"In fact, both I and count ruwen are full of respect for the courage and wisdom of the morning star Forest Elves. It is because of the leaders of experienced elders like you that this ancient forest can be free from the harm of ogres and spend every midsummer and winter in peace and prosperity!"

"The war you are fighting is of great significance. It is a contest between civilization and barbarism, between justice and evil, between light and darkness, and a contest destined to win, because no matter how many times ogres and their despicable accomplices invade, the victory will not belong to them!"

"And all of you here are the stars that lead the morning star Forest Elves to victory, the bright moon that lights up the night, and the red that will rise slowly at dawn..."

"Kekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekeke.

Although he had to admit that the human named Loren was very reasonable, he couldn't help standing up because of the deep-rooted rejection of human beings in his mind:

"Then, Lord Lorraine, what will the Duke use to prove his kindness to us?"

"Of course it's practical action." Loren immediately took it down. He was waiting for the other party to ask.

"In order to show the generosity and friendship of the Principality of lottel, the count ordered me to bring a whole carriage of iron ingots, 30 sets of leather armor, and healing medicine enough to support a fierce battle - these are not many, but I hope they can satisfy you."

"When the two sides conclude an alliance, more resources will continue to be sent here to support you to carry out the battle to the end!"

With his hands in front of him and a smile on his face, Loren looked at the genie elders who had a lot of pleasant faces, bowed silently, turned and left the long house.

Just went out, a thin palm suddenly grabbed his collar, and the whole person was dragged aside.

"What are you doing?!" the fairy grabbed Lauren's collar with one hand and stared at him with emerald eyes: "we're looking for you to convince them, not to make you please these old men with a bunch of flattery!"

"What do you think is the biggest characteristic of the old man?" helpless Loren collapsed his shoulders and raised his eyebrows.

"The biggest characteristic?" Leia thought seriously: "... Stubborn?"

"That's right!" Lauren nodded without hesitation. "That's great!"

"I just..." more or less embarrassed Liya just wanted to be modest. She suddenly remembered something and clenched her right hand: "you were fooling me just now!"

"On the contrary, I'm just telling you how to convince these elders." with a long sigh, Loren patted her hand and loosened her collar: "for a group of stubborn people, you can't convince them by very direct means."

"In fact, all people are somewhat opinionated, whether they are humans or elves - so if you want them to accept your point of view, you must first act as if you think of them."

"But you are completely teasing those old men." the fairy is still dissatisfied: "it's all a pair of useless flattery."

"Yes, that's because the situation is different. These elders are very wary of human beings, so I have to let them relax their vigilance first. I know that this way of flattery may be really shameless..."

"It's just shameless."

"... but we don't have time, do we?!" Loren tried to resist the urge to roll her eyes. This is not the first time for a female elf who never knew she was straightforward.

"The spring snow will melt soon. In other words, ogres will invade here at any time. If we can't let them understand the seriousness of the matter as soon as possible and let them completely believe me, we won't have time!"
