Just being a dark elf in Warhammer

At the place where the tea party was held, Darkus crossed his legs and looked at the noisy Senate below. This time he was only accompanied by Ren, and the other elves had their own things to do. If Marist, who was sitting opposite him, had not been present, he and Ren would probably be the only two outsiders to witness everything below.

"When I return to Nagaros, the once famous magic center of the Kingdom of Nagaros will be opened again, but now it has become the Black Ark Nagor. I wonder if the noble queen is interested?

Of course, Black Ark can not only train spellcasters, but also naval officers and sailors. "Dakeus said to himself. He knew that Marist would definitely not agree. He was just teasing Marist out of boredom.

Sure enough, as Darkus expected, Marist, who was looking down, turned his head to look at him expressionlessly, and then turned his head to look down again.

It has been more than a month since he last visited the ancient holy ruins below Tal Litanel. Darkus can't calculate the specific time. He stayed in Lauren Loren in darkness, just like Go to the North Pole where there is never any darkness and it is always daytime even in the second half of the night.

The result of the visit was certainly fruitful, but from a certain perspective it was not fruitful either.

Darkus discovered the third Ancient Holy Sanctuary in Ersin Alvin, far away on the Lustria continent. Based on the murals, he speculated that this Ancient Holy Sanctuary should be that of the Ancient Saint Axel Belin. This is an ancient sage who is very unpopular, so unpopular that not many people know him. This is an ancient sage who is connected with the night sky and the stars. Perhaps, as he had thought before, these ancient saints were Space Slann who had traveled through space just like him.

There are various beings in the Space Slann group. The leader, Koteg, should be wearing combat equipment related to the sun, such as hanging solar panels on his body? He is something like a war lord.

There are also some archmages who avoid the world, but will provide advice and fight at critical moments, just like scientific researchers who can fight. Darkus thought that Taibok, Zongqi, Axl Belin, Ihamenshi, Ashoto, Ashoranka, Potek, and Ukesa should all be of this type. After all, these The Old Ones knew magic, philosophy, law, and mystical powers like the back of their hands.

For example, Uksa is an ancient saint who represents language and speech, and Solok is an ancient holy man who represents precision. Moreover, Darkus speculated that Sorok might be responsible for controlling some war equipment during wartime. Such a large-scale killing weapon, after all, Solok represents precision... War equipment requires precision and aiming.

There are also some beings like warriors, such as Tarancsla who drives a chariot, brothers Quiteli and Quigi, Huangqi, Krashia, Shapati, Zikadi, etc. From Darkus' point of view, these ancient saints are responsible for different matters. Quitely, the Quige brothers and Zikadi are more like close combat existences, while Huangqi, Krashia and Kasu'an are more like It is the one who scouts and launches surprise attacks.

It's a bit far-fetched...

Darkos didn't find anything new in the Ancient Holy Sanctuary, let alone the incubation pool he desperately needed. There was only one running Ancient Saint creation standing there. It looked like a Shaping Engine, but it was different from the Shaping Engine. It was a variant similar to the Shaping Engine.

Like the ancient holy creations of Conquata, which were specifically responsible for changing the surrounding environment, the stone slab placed not far away is also a duplicate of the one found at Conquata.

This is also the reason why Lauren Loren is special, while the Shadow Forest and Duncanwald Forest not far away are just ordinary forests.

Taking this as an inference, Darkus thought that the Shadow Forest and Duncan Wald Forest should not have matching Old Saint creations, or they were not activated after being placed, or the Ancient Saint creations came to a standstill with the arrival of the great invasion. As for Athel Loren, there must be something similar to the Old Saint's creation, and maybe there is more than one, otherwise it would be impossible to explain how evil Athel Loren is.

The so-called harvest is the bookshelf placed in the ancient holy sanctuary. According to the contents recorded in the books and scrolls, the so-called demigod Salil is the incarnation of Hoth, just as Darkus guessed.

The person who confirmed this was Belloda. After checking the contents on the bookshelf, she said that it was very similar to some contents related to Hoth in the Tower of Hoth.

Hoth is the god of knowledge, magic, and wisdom, and the patron saint of elven mages and scholars. When an elf faces a difficult dilemma or confusing problem, he will pray to him, because his wisdom can help the elf see the truth of the matter. Elf mages will also pray to him when preparing a powerful magic.

Of course, most of these elves refer to Asul of Ulthuan. Just like those ancient saints who are not only capable of magic in Taibok, there are also many elven gods who are capable of magic, such as Hecate, Lilith, etc., and some Demigods who are incarnations of elven gods, such as Isa in Athel Loren who is the incarnation of Queen Ariel.

This is also the reason why there is only Renn around Darkus now. His companions all have their own responsibilities or things to do. With the emergence of Heth's knowledge, the group of spellcasters are also hungry while communicating with the dragon lizard. I want to get some valuable things from the knowledge of Hess. After all, I have seen it all, so there is no reason to refuse it. If it were not for a council meeting, Marist would also be studying it.

As introduced before, the Senate will meet in Tal Litanel once a year to discuss foreign affairs involving neighbors or the defense of the entire territory of Lauren Loren. In times of crisis, emergency Senate meetings can be convened.

The Senators are respected elders, warriors and explorers, comprised of the four regions of Lauren Loren, who propose specific courses of action to the High Council based on their frontline experience.

"Now those dwarves and men are seeking our hair..."

"Recently, a large number of humans are trying to go deep into the frost zone to find hyacinths. They are also trying to go deep into the sun zone to find moonflowers!"

As soon as these words came out, not only the Enils in the Senate and the surrounding Enils burst out in noise, but even Marist, who was sitting opposite Dax, also showed a surprised look.

"Not only hyacinths and moonflowers, but also fire nettles!" Aenir in a cloak added.

However, this Enil's words did not generate any controversy. After all, fire nettles are too common among Lauren Loren. One of the raw materials of the information card is fire nettles. Otherwise, the previous trade agreement cannot be signed. Try replacing the raw materials of the information card with those rare moonflowers. No matter how greedy the city-state relatives are, they will not sign the trade agreement. This has already reached the core.

Darkus, who was sitting there, listened intermittently. After listening for a long time, he could not figure out the general outline in his mind. The information given by Enil in one word and one word was really too fragmentary. Besides, he He is not the ruler of Lauren Loren, so he doesn't know the ins and outs of it.

"Are you sure that the so-called ancient saint's creation is operating normally?"

The council meeting was over, but Darkus and Marist had no intention of leaving. After looking at each other with their triangular eyes for a long time, Marist asked.

"I know that the Ancient Saint's creation is very important to Lauren Loren, and it is also very important to you and the Enils. Although there are some differences between us, I clearly understand that as the Ancient Saint Umak Let me tell you, there is no problem with that Ancient Saint creation! Absolutely no problem!

Because there is also an Ancient Saint creation on the mist-shrouded Obien Island. The operating mode and structure are the same as the ones below, and the instructions on the stone tablet are also the same! Darkus said decisively, and as he said, despite the differences, everything he said on this matter was true.

"Although I don't want to repeat it again, as the ruler of Lauren Loren, I still want to say it once, thank you for your dedication to Lauren Loren." Marist nodded slightly, with sincerity in his tone.

Darkus didn't do anything, but raised the wine glass on the table to signal to Marist.

"Maybe I know the reason." Marist took a sip of the wine in the glass and sighed. After a while, she continued.

Darkus still didn't say anything, but he tapped his index finger twice on the table.

"This goes back to ancient history." Marist started.

Darkus had a serious expression on his face. Things about elves always involve ancient history, but as I said before, ancient history is not old, especially those old monsters and those who experienced the things are still alive. situation. Not to mention the immortals in Nagaris and Leandra, whom he heard from Bajir a while ago that she has been alive, there are also several Lauren Loren alone, such as the first-generation festival lord who presided over order and so on.

"Then where do we start? The beginning of the elven colonization of Elsin Alvin during the Balshana period?" Darkus asked in a teasing tone after thinking about it.

"No! Let's start with the battle of revenge." Marist glared at Darkus and said.

Marist began to tell the story, from the origin to the end of the Revenge War. Although it was very different from what Darkus knew, he still found some key points. For example, there was no Druch in it. Participating shadows, perhaps in the perception of the colonial elves, the war of revenge is the war between Ulthuan and the colonies and the dwarves.

"The Frostfall region is very unstable compared to other regions. Plagues have appeared intermittently before, which is one of the reasons why Cole Imamoor has always been in ruins. But this time the plague seems to be more serious than before, and Yaddo told me that the symptoms of this plague were somewhat similar to those at the end of the War of Vengeance.

At the end of the War of Revenge, the gray lords who secluded themselves in Lauren Loren recruited an army of spirits to destroy the dwarf troops that penetrated deeply into Lauren Loren. At that time, Kor Imamor had been captured by the dwarves and became the place where the dwarf reserve army camped. A gray lord named Darolhan also released a terrible disease in the ruins of the city. The subsequent dwarf offensive was disrupted, and although the War of Revenge continued for several years, the dwarves never again threatened Eshor Talarian.

That period was very chaotic, and even the elves who came from that era like Yaddo and Asanok didn't know the whole thing. The only archmage Sestela who had any contact with Dalolhan was working with my aunt. The Betrayer fell in battle. "

"Wait, Asanok? I heard Kaia said it, but specifically? And this archmage?" Darkus found the right moment to interrupt Marist's intermittent narration.

Darkus felt a little confused. He really couldn't understand the relationship between these characters. He only understood that the Archmage who was related to Dalolhan died hundreds of years ago. Kaia mentioned to him before that something happened when Marist did not succeed to the throne.

Marist's mother, Queen Trelia, also has a sister with advanced spellweaver abilities, who is Marist's aunt. Without succeeding to Queen Lauren Loren, Trelia's sister conspired with a human necromancer for some reason and attempted to kidnap Marest, who was still a princess at the time, to launch a coup.

As long as Marest, the heir, dies, Marest's aunt will succeed to the throne and become the fourth-generation Queen Lauren Loren.

As mentioned before, the inheritance rules of Queen Lauren Laurent are that when there are women, there is no business for men. As long as Marest, the heir, dies, Marest's aunt will succeed to the throne if her sister Trelia dies, becoming the fourth generation Queen Lauren Loren.

There must be sacrifices in battle, and Kaia survived that battle and emerged as the ruler of the Storm Zone. However, Sestra, who survived the battle of revenge, died in the internal fighting of Enil. It must be said that this is an irony.

"Athanok? He is a refugee who entered Lauren Loren during the War of Vengeance. He comes from Kor Vanas. He lives in a cave by the river with other refugees. Now he is an isolated man. A hermit who guards the passage that connects the Sun Zone and the Frost Zone.

The Archmage Sestra who is related to Dallolhan comes from the Redfern family. She was very famous during the War of Revenge, but... as I said before, she was born before I succeeded to the throne. The moment fell. The Redfern family moved from Ulthuan and settled there after the founding of Cole Imamor, but now the Redfern family has withered away, with only one heir named Tolandil. By the way...he's also a bard, although I've never heard him sing.

As for Dalolhan, as a Druchi, you may know better than me. "

Marist didn't forget to choke Darkus until the end.

"Shall I go back to Nagaros to check now? And then inform you of the news? Within ten years...there should be results!" Darkus retorted decisively. He smiled at Marist who looked at him. After Rest had no intention of replying, he then asked, "I'm curious, why didn't the hermit follow Leandra? Instead, he stayed in Lauren Loren. As far as I know, Leandra still Alive, living a secluded life like Asanok, but Leandra is in Athel Loren."

"Leandra is still alive?" Marist asked with some surprise. As the ruler of Lauren Loren, she certainly knew about Leandra. After all, many of the current woodland relatives are from Leandra. Those brought over by Erso Talarian were either brought over from Kor Vanas, but Kor Varnas has been ruled by the Arsino family of Leandra since its establishment.

As a result, Leandra, who had a strong influence on Lauren Loren, actually chose to leave Lauren Loren after settling everything. Otherwise, Lauren Loren's political ecology will be even more complicated than it is now, and Leandra can completely serve as a spokesperson to lead the refugee group against Lauren Loren's colonizer group.

"That day when we were in Jinchi, the forest dragon Bagir told me. Didn't he tell you? It seems that the connection between you is not as close as I imagined.

I was originally going to ask you about the location of Bajir's lair. Before we separated last time, he invited me to visit him, but he didn't tell me the address. "Just like Marist often choked Darkus, Darkus would also choke back when he found the opportunity. Fortunately, this was the only way Mrs. Bu could deal with them. He and Lilith had not yet started to fight. As for developing into a lover? Becoming the festival lord of Marest...

Pull him down, everything comes to an end. From the bottom of his heart, Darkus doesn’t like this Marist, who has the same inverted triangle eyes as Belloda. He can also feel that Marist doesn’t like him. In this situation What is the operation of becoming a lover?

Even if you can become a lover, you have to pay attention to the influence. In Druchi society, it is a symbol of strength for men to maintain so-called loyalty. Of course, this is not important. What matters is what Drusala thinks of him, what does Alyssa and the two brothers of the Takaia family think of him, how does he become a lover with an elf with Aenarion blood, and what does Malekith think of him? This is an elf with the blood of Aenarion, not Genevieve, who has no importance in elven society.

And Darkus never belongs to Lauren Loren's Aenir, he belongs to Nagaroth's Druch. He was just a passerby in Lauren Loren, and he and Marist used each other more to achieve their own goals. Just like Marist signaled him to find an opportunity to beat the festival lord, just like Marist compromised and asked him for help.

"Let's get the topic back on track." Just like Darkus knew the boundaries, Marist also knew where the boundaries were. She did not attack Darkus personally and condemned Darkus for his lack of grace. But he said calmly.

The thirsty Darkus raised his glass again and gestured to Marist in an extremely friendly and graceful manner.

"Ivan's death hit me hard, and it made me think about Laurellon, who had been there for four thousand years, and I could sense that he was tired of that job and maybe it was time to call it a day. Marist said a little tiredly after finishing the drink.

"So in my opinion, the trade agreement between our two sides is very necessary to sign. As I said before, with more people, there will be more spellcasters, and more spellcasters represent more With more advanced spellcasters, you will not be so passive, and Ivan's tragedy will be avoided." Darkus said something that seemed unrelated to what Marist said, but it was actually very related. .

"You're right, more people, more spellcasters." Marist agreed.

"Dear Queen Marest, perhaps after the Ulthuan matter is resolved, your ambition and power can be even greater! The continent of Lustria has the ability to create the creations of the Old Saints under our feet. When the elves return to Elshin ·When Alvin is here, we can drive out the monsters entrenched in the Shadow Forest and Duncanwald Forest, and place the Old Saint's creations on the roadstone nodes. After that, we can take Marion into the bag and take West as well. It turned into a forest and bordered Lauren Loren." Darkus climbed up the ladder and directly drew a pie for Marist with his backhand.

In Darkus' opinion, this pie is really possible. Duncanwald Forest borders Reikland, Middenland and Lauren Loren. After eating Duncanwald Forest, it can further control Altdorf and Middensea. Im exerting influence.

After eating the Shadow Forest, there will be no need for the Nordland to exist. Maybe Archaon will disappear directly. You must know that Archaon was born in Hagendorf, the Nordland. Hagendorf borders the northern part of the Frostfall Zone, at the mouth of the Demster River. Strictly speaking, Hagendorf appeared with the acquiescence of Aenir after the Treaty of Leaf, just like Lauren Loren. Just like the Nordland is a weird conjoined one. The Shadow Forest also connects the Ostek Territory and the Hawk Territory, and of course the damn Brass Fortress.

At that time, we will find some way to control Marienburg. We can adopt a method that does not cause disputes. For example, as happened in history, let Marienburg and Westland become independent. The elves dominate the Marienburg Human Parliament by controlling them. everything. After eating the Shadow Forest and Duncan Wald Forest, and then transforming the Westland into a forest through the environmental transformation created by the Ancient Saints, this operation will mean that the entire northern part of the empire is gone. By then, humans will control the city, and the elves will Control the forest.

The forest coverage rate in the empire is very high, and it is full of monsters and monsters, which humans cannot control at all. From another perspective, the forest is like an unconquerable ocean, inhabited by monsters and Kraken, while human towns are like isolated islands. You must be cautious when traveling to prevent sudden attacks by monsters in the forest. That's it... still want to build a railway? The difficulty is no less than building an undersea tunnel that can be visited in a sea full of sea monsters.

"Is this your ambition?" Darkus' words made Marist laugh, but when she thought about it carefully, it was really possible. After all, as an immortal species in the forest, she had witnessed all kinds of human beings outside the forest.

“We can give some benefits to humans, such as helping them set up their magic system, helping them resist the invasion of Chaos, and providing them with supplies and weapons.

But there are some key things that must be in our hands. After all, human lifespan is too short. No one can guarantee that the successor of a wise monarch will also be a wise monarch. Maybe he is a pig who only knows how to eat. Including mankind’s weird elector system, and as far as I know, the elector system has been abandoned for a long time. "

Darkus felt that he was a little arrogant and a little extreme, but he believed that this was necessary. The key things must be in his own hands, and humans couldn't control them anyway. As we all know, there are three emperors in the empire, namely Sigma, Magnus, and Karl, plus Mandred at most. As for the others, he can't remember them. It's just like a quick glance at the past two thousand years. Who can remember all the 397 emperors?

Besides, after taking control of the northern part of the empire, the elves will also fulfill their responsibilities. At least the external pressure on the empire will not be as great as before. As long as it penetrates the empire thoroughly enough and binds all aspects of the empire to the elves, the empire will not use force against the elves on a large scale. At most, it will be caused by some careerists and the Tzeentch sect.

"I admit that you are right, but our pressure will also increase, and our relationship will become closer than it is now. We must maintain the three forests while building a navy to defend against the Chaos that may invade from the north at any time.

But like you said, there's a lot of benefits that we'll get as well. "As a ruler, Marist thought a lot at this moment. She thought about how to use the expanded forest to expand her power, ease the conflicts within Aenir, and have a closer connection with Ulthuan. In addition, There were many things going on outside. After a while, she came back to her senses and found that the topic was taken away by Druchi in front of her again.

"I suspect that the plague has something to do with Darolhan, and that humans and dwarves are also involved." Marist said directly without giving Darkus a chance this time.

"Is Darolhan also alive?" This time it was Darkos's turn to be surprised.

"He disappeared after the Revenge War. No one knows where he went, whether he is still alive or dead. It was as if he suddenly evaporated and disappeared into the forest." Marist shook his head and said , after answering Darkus's question, she continued, "Based on the intelligence feedback, I judge that humans found the research samples of Darolhan in Lauren Loren, which resulted in a similar situation to that of Darolhan. The plague breaks out again among Lauren Loren, and the addition of dwarves deepens the conflict."

"Where's the evidence? Not... where's the basis of the argument?"

"Not long ago, humans established a guild of Northland Foresters, and a human named Oswald served as the president. I conducted an internal investigation in Seinmond and found that the guild office in the city only had one idle scribe."

"What kind of leather bag company?" Darkus complained secretly.

"In human terms, Oswald was a famous timber merchant and a member of Parliament in Sessenmund. He owned a logging camp. The purpose of his establishment of the guild was to represent those loggers who had nothing to do after the plague. who protest against the share of logging we allocate to them.

Now more loggers have joined the guild, and as he seeks support for his attack on us, the fawning woodsmen will protect him with axes, claiming that we spread the plague to prevent them from logging. , and other strange rumors.

The Enils living in the Frostfall area believe that human logging and encroachment on Lauren Loren caused the plague. Oswald seems to know what he is doing, but he does not know what he is doing. Seeking death! He brought Nordland to the brink of war, and he and his supporters in Sessenmund are responsible for his actions! "

Ren, who was standing behind Darkus, suddenly raised his head and glanced at Marist. After Marist looked at him, he lowered his head and continued recording.

"It's something that can be solved with a wave of charges, evidence? We don't seem to need that thing..."

Darkus defined this so-called leather bag company of the Northland Foresters' Guild. He always considered himself to be very humble, just like the Druch captain he met in the Bjorn tribe Skjod. He thought that if he were replaced by that captain, he might not be as comfortable as that captain. This is why he and Maranur were willing to write a letter of introduction to the captain that could change their fate.

However, Darkus really didn’t look down on Oswald and the woodcutter. After all, no matter how outrageous it was, this was Lauren Loren. This was the old world. There was no way those woodcutter could be like Osuancha. Are they the same as the white lion guards in the Kingdom of Reis? If this is true, then there is no need for the White Lion Guard to exist. He will write a beautifully worded letter to the current Phoenix King, asking the Phoenix King to recruit human woodcutter to form an organization just like he did in Eastern Rome in his previous life. A guard similar to Vaglian's, but isn't this pure nonsense?

"You know what this means!"

"Isn't this what you want?"

Darkus and Marest played a riddle. Of course he knew what it meant. It was nothing more than a war... During this period in history, a one-sided war broke out between Lauren Loren and Nordland. , maybe this Oswald is the trigger, and his joining is a catalyst, accelerating the process of history. Yes, he is ready to join as an outsider.

As for why Darkus chose to join, there are many reasons, otherwise he would not pay attention to this matter, and it involves the fact that Lauren Loren is declining. If Tal Litanel's ancient holy creation is functioning normally, the problem lies elsewhere, such as Cole Imamoor in the Frostfall Zone, which is also the core of Lauren Loren's spiritual node. one.

Anyway, now that he is here, Darkus must try his best to find the reason. Although he has no system instructions, the main task he has defined for himself is to repair the water pipes. This time he comes to the old world and rules in Ulthuan. Well, they are all for repairing water pipes, and what if, what if, once the stone slab about the hatching pond is found in Cole Imamoor?

Moreover...Silver Mountain is also in the Frostfall area. Darkus will definitely find an opportunity to do something this time. After coming to Ulthuan, the elves will definitely dominate Elsin Alvin. With Potosi, he has no shortage of metal coins, and he doesn't need the silver mines in the Silver Mountains. What he needs is influence!

Using supplies and weapons to dominate the Empire's influence, rather than in exchange for some metal coins that are worthless to Darkus, he needs to let Potosi's metal coins circulate in the old world so that he can control Elsin. Alvin can further control Ulthuan and increase Ashriel's influence.

"As Umak of the Ancient Saint, I have a duty!" Darkus knew that this was what Marist was waiting for. After he waited for Marist to smile with relief, he gave it to Marist in advance. He said, "In addition to preventing Lauren Loren from declining, I have one more thing to do, or this thing is included in preventing Lauren Loren from declining."

"You're so annoying."

"Thank you for your...praise." (End of chapter)
