Arcane Lord
Chapter 4 Elf Impression
Conifera City is located in the forest east of Savile Town. It is a border city for trade between the empire and the Cormanthor elves. However, due to the restrictions of the elves, it is difficult for Conifera City to destroy the forest and open up large-scale farmland outside the city. .
Therefore, for more than a hundred years before the Savile Territory was opened, many supplies from Connefila City had to be transported across hundreds of kilometers from the rear of the empire. Not only was it time-consuming and laborious, but also if they encountered a tide of murlocs in the river along the way, , goblin communities, trolls, beasts, etc. in the wilderness, then this trip is likely to be empty.
If it weren't for the occasional support from elves, it's hard to say whether Conefira City could have survived.
Therefore, in the year 744 of the Netherese calendar, the Grand Arcanist of Saville chose to come to the Wolfburg River to open up the wilderness and laid the foundation of the current Saville Territory, which has been in place for 90 years now.
In the past 90 years, Savile Territory, located on the commercial road from the core of the empire to Conifera City, has become the main collection place for daily necessities in Conifera City, and has achieved tremendous development through this.
The east side of Savile Town today even retains some of the buildings from decades ago. The most low-key among them is of course the stone road that Xia Duo was stepping on at that time. The only thing left in the entire Savile Town is this stone road in the east side. The road was built during the time of the Grand Arcanist of Xavier.
Other roads have been lost to the township's expansion over the years.
Xia Duo observed carefully while walking. This stone road that had been used for nearly a hundred years did not appear to be damaged. This should be due to the magic of magic and the constant maintenance of future generations.
The buildings on both sides of the road have been replaced several times in the past hundred years, and only a few of them have been preserved. Those buildings that have been preserved basically have a distinctive elven style. Perhaps this is the reason why they can be preserved.
The elven architecture is somewhat similar to the ancient architecture of the country where Sha Duo traveled before traveling. It is exquisite, elegant, and gorgeous. How could this not be regarded as a miracle in front of the Nese people who were almost newly civilized at the time.
The establishment of diplomatic relations between the Nese people and the elves began in the early days of the founding of the country. Since then, the influence of the elves has penetrated deeply into the bones of the Nese people. They are advanced, assimilated and backward. Sha Duo has seen too many examples on the earth. .
If it had not been for the discovery of the Nese Scroll, Shado would even think that the Nese people would eventually become "elves, elves, and humans" whose physical body is human but their spirit is elves. But are elves really that beautiful and kind?
The information that Sha Duo had before his time travel may not be accurate, but it can at least provide some reference - there was a Crown War that lasted for thousands of years, and several elven kingdoms fought against each other, resulting in countless casualties.
Recently, 70 years ago, a complete set of Nese scrolls in the empire was stolen out of thin air. It is said that no clues have been found until now. Is it really impossible to find it?
Even if it is just based on the principle of "whoever benefits, whoever is the suspect", after thinking about it for a moment, you will know that it is probably the elves. What Xia Duo knows based on the information before traveling is that in the future, the Cormanso elves will establish a mystery. When Strono made the secret lock, he referred to the knowledge parsed from the scrolls of Nese.
Of course, having personally traveled to the continent of Faerûn, Sha Duo was not sure whether it was really the elves who did it, but the elves were definitely not that pure and kind.
How could a mature civilization have any nature? The country before Xia Duo traveled through was known as a foodie empire, but there were not many people who really knew how to eat and cook. Another example was the fact that the fighting nation was not actually brave.
One can imagine how authentic the artificially added labels are.
For more than half a year in Savile Town, Xia Duo saw elves several times with his own eyes. They looked indeed beautiful and innocent, but elves often came and went in a hurry, rarely staying, and had no time to observe carefully.
Among them, the one that impressed Sha Duo the most was when an elf came to Old Neil's hotel to replenish food - he wanted meat, and the elf wanted meat! How fresh!
However, this was not what impressed Xia Duo the most. After all, the vegetarian diet of elves was just a preconceived notion he brought from before time travel. The Nese people probably did not have such an idea.
What really impressed Xia Duo was that he saw the magic of magic for the first time. It was no longer a street trick, but a cleaning technique that covered the entire hotel. Even Xia Duo's clothes were brand new.
It's just that the elf's arrival only lasted for a while. Before Xia Duo could take a closer look, the elf left in a hurry. He didn't look good to anyone the whole time, but Old Neil had a smile on his face.
I wish I could receive the elves every day, because whenever the elves make a move, there is nothing less than a gold coin. That time it was just a few pieces of raw meat, and the elf paid 5 gold coins. He probably grabbed it casually, and gave 5 gold coins after grabbing 5 pieces.
As for the cleaning spell that covers the entire hotel at once, if the wizard Nese is asked to cast the spell, let alone whether the mages are willing to cast the spell for a hotel. Even if they are willing, it will cost at least dozens of gold coins to cast the spell.
Having money and power, this is an elf.
…
No matter how long this stone road was during the time of Savile's Grand Arcanist, it had an end. Soon, Shado and Junior arrived at the east gate of the town, which was similar to the west gate that Shado took when he came to Savile Town half a year ago.
They are all wooden gates. The only difference is that the east gate is wider and can accommodate three carriages passing by at the same time. The guard at the gate wears half leather armor and holds a spear, leaning against a wooden pillar, looking very lazy.
On the other hand, the tax official sitting behind a wooden table opened his eyes wide and stared at everyone who came in and out, his eyes almost gleaming, wishing that everyone who came in and out met the tax standard, and then Squeeze even a copper coin out of them.
Savile Town originally had a stone wall, but it was later removed as the town developed. Now, only a wooden fence surrounds the entire town. This is certainly not regardless of safety.
Instead, the entire Savile Town is within the spell coverage of the mage tower. No matter how stupid the goblin is, he will not choose to attack the town. As for the wooden fences, of course they are not that simple. It is said that the mages have attached them Surveillance magic will sound a piercing alarm whenever someone steps over or breaks it.
Those caught could be sentenced to slavery at most.
Naturally, Xia Duo would not want to climb over the fence, but as he passed by, he couldn't help but wonder, if he flew over or jumped over with a pole, would it trigger an alarm if he didn't touch the fence?
This question may never have a chance to be verified.
If you are not a mage, you dare not verify it; if you are a mage, you can ask people who know, or maybe this is the common sense of some kind of mage!
After passing the city gate, except for the discomfort of being stared at by the tax collector, Xia Duo didn't feel much else, and that was it when he left the town.
As soon as he left the gate of the town, Little Neil called out, "Xia Duo, look at the tent of the Lion and Fire Circus!"
yes! It was a group of tents in gold, red and white colors similar to yurts, with colorful streamers hanging on the tops of the tents. Almost every tent had two doors open, and visitors entered through one door and exited through the other.
It seems to be free?
Xia Duo has never seen a circus on earth, but if there is no charge, what are they trying to do?
Here, Xia Duo speculated on the profit model of the circus. Xiao Neil couldn't bear it any longer. He pulled Xia Duo and ran forward. I really don't know where he got the energy!
After getting closer, Xia Duo discovered that most of these tents were selling things, ranging from scissors, needlework, salt, pots, basins, to tables, chairs, benches, weapons and armor.
These circuses also double as grocery stores!
What about trolls?
Xia Duo couldn't help but want to ask.
"What about the troll?" Xiao Neil had already asked.
