Du Wei's face immediately showed the most sincere smile, he laughed a few times, held his head high, and strode towards Luoxue. When he got closer, looking at the enthusiastic smile on his face, it seemed that
He was about to go up and hug the Elf King.
"Mr. Luoxue!" Du Wei had already held Luoxue's hand with both hands. The expression on his face was like that of an old friend meeting again for many years. He was excited, happy and happy at the same time. His voice was even more emotional: "We said goodbye in the past.
I am in the northwest, and every night when I can't sleep, I think of Mr. Luoxue's voice and smile. I can vividly remember his demeanor. I also want to go north this time and wonder if I will have a chance to meet you. I never expected that you actually know my feelings. First of all,
Even if you don’t write to me after inviting me, I originally wanted to write to you and invite you to come to Yajin City and have a big drunken time!”
What he said was so intense that even the water was boiling. Rohart, who was following behind him, blushed all over and thought to himself: Our Lord Duke is so thick-skinned that he cannot deny it.
!
Luoxue's originally calm expression suddenly became a little unnatural. She coughed and pulled her hand out of Du Wei's paw with a strange smile on her face. She glanced at Du Wei and then said with a bitter smile:
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you don't mean what you said."
"How could that be possible?" Du Wei immediately said solemnly: "I have missed you so much over the years."
Luoxue couldn't help but have a strange look in her eyes. She rolled her eyes and suddenly lowered her voice and whispered in Du Wei's ear: "I'm afraid you don't 'want me to death', but 'want me to die'."
Du Wei chuckled: "It's the same, it's all the same."
Luoxue sighed. It was chasing Du Weiman northwest. It had already learned that the Tulip Duke was dark-hearted and thick-skinned. Now that they were reunited, although they were dumbfounded, they were not surprised.
Afterwards, Luoxue and Du Wei held hands and walked into the fortress in a grand manner.
Along the way, Du Wei only saw that the fortress was still in chaos. The houses, buildings and streets that had been burned down by the war a few days ago seemed to have not been repaired these days. There were even blood stains on some of the ground, and they were just using water randomly.
After flushing, a faint red color was left.
There were no elves in the fortress. There were orcs everywhere who were busy carrying wood and fodder back and forth. Du Wei couldn't help but feel a little lost as he watched. Most of the orcs didn't seem to be preparing for battle. Most of them were dressed up.
None of the orcs wore armor, but ran back and forth shirtless to make it easier to work.
Such a place does not look like a military fortress, but a busy construction site.
Luo Xue and Du Wei were walking casually on the street. Perhaps Luo Xue had given special instructions before. Along the way, some orcs would stop and look at us from a distance, but no orcs would dare to come close. Even
Even Luoxue himself didn't bring an entourage, so the two of them walked side by side, arm in arm.
Luoxue looked at Du Wei's expression carefully and saw Du Wei's eyes flashing. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Du Wei, it's a pity that you have come to this fortress for the second time. I happened to be away when you came last time. Otherwise,
, I’m afraid our reunion won’t have to wait until today.”
Du Wei thought to himself: If you were here last time, I might not be able to escape. But he said: "Unfortunately, if I knew you were here, I would have stayed a little longer last time, and I wouldn't have left in such a hurry."
Luoxue knew that Du Wei was talking nonsense, so he was not angry, but suddenly asked: "Du Wei, what do you think of this fortress?"
When Du Wei heard this, his heart moved, and he thought: I donated money to the imperial government to build this fortress. Every brick, every tile, every plant, every tree, was all spent on my money. The original city defense design
The pictures are all for my own purposes. Of course I know them very well, do you still need to ask?
Although he thought so in his heart, he smiled faintly: "Of course it is extremely bad. Otherwise, you would not have led your army to sneak attack at night and defeat them overnight."
Luoxue snorted and smiled: "You are too polite. The construction of this fortress city defense is very rigorous. If I didn't have dragons at my command, plus the previous strategy of weakening the enemy, it depleted the morale of your human defenders, and through the
Otherwise, it would be difficult to defeat the dragon tribe's sneak attack at night. I heard that most of your country's northern defense line was built with your money. Even the design has many of your ideas since the war started.
, but it really caused us a lot of suffering.”
After hearing this, Du Wei said calmly: "So what, why don't you capture it?"
After hearing this, Luoxue also smiled calmly: "It seems that, Duke Tulip, you have no regard for this fortress."
Du Wei frowned, not understanding what this meant for a moment.
The two of them walked all the way to the commander's palace in the city. This was originally the headquarters of the human garrison. After the fall, it naturally became the headquarters of the criminal people.
Luo Xue and Du Wei came in through the gate. Du Wei saw that the roads around the commander's mansion were clean. The orcs working in the distance did not dare to come near. There were several elven warriors standing at the door, all dressed in uniform.
He was wearing silver hollow-patterned armor and had a handsome appearance. When he saw Luoxue from a distance, he quickly knelt down on one knee.
What used to be the headquarters of one's side has now become the enemy's lair. If it had been someone else, it would have been a bit awkward to be touched by the situation at this moment. However, Du Wei seemed to be heartless and walked in side by side with Luoxue, but laughed.
Said: "Last time you went to my territory, but this time you have arrived at your home ground. You must entertain me well, with good wine and delicious food, but no less."
The two walked into the handsome man's house. Du Wei followed Luo Xue into a hall that had been prepared in advance. However, when he looked back, he saw Rohart following behind with a somewhat depressed expression. Du Wei and Luo Xue entered.
When he opened the door, he was hesitant and didn't know whether to follow, but Du Wei glanced at Luoxue and deliberately said loudly: "Rohart, you can come in with me. Mr. Luoxue is very talented. If you can get closer to him, you can
You can also benefit a lot.”
At the same time, Du Wei nodded to Luoxue and said with a smile: "My subordinate was originally a bit reckless and impetuous, so I didn't want to stay with you for a while, but you have made me more enlightened. I want this."
Thank you very much."
Luoxue didn't say anything, just smiled lightly and led Du Wei into the hall.
This hall was originally the commander's hall of the human garrison, where the garrison generals held discussions. It was very spacious. But at this moment, the three people walked in, but they saw only the original furnishings inside, such as weapons, sand tables and the like.
, all have been emptied out a long time ago, and there is only a long table and a few chairs inside. Some fruits and other food have been placed on the table, but there are no utensils to serve them. Instead, they use pieces of green leaf-like things.
Holding.
On the wall, the elves probably used magic to create many plants, and vine-like branches covered the wall.
The three of them walked in, and the elves immediately closed the hall door outside.
Then, Du Wei heard the sound of footsteps outside. In a moment, all the elves in the yard had retreated, leaving no one behind.
Du Wei smiled and heard Luo Xue say calmly: "We are old friends again. Naturally, we have to say something. It's not good for others to hear. I called everyone out. If you and I talk here, it won't be spread!"
After saying that, Luoxue walked to the table and held up a green wine glass with both hands. The wine glass was exquisite and strange in shape. It looked like a piece of green leaves rolled up, with a shallow cup of liquid inside.
It has a light amber color and is extremely moist. When you smell it lightly, you can feel a fresh and faint aroma, but you don't know what it is.
"This is the wine of our elves, which is very different from the wine brewed by humans. Come on, Duwei! After four years of separation, let me respect you first!"
With that said, Luoxue picked up the green wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. Then she squinted her eyes and looked at Du Wei with a smile.
Du Wei had come here alone anyway. If Luoxue wanted to harm him, he wouldn't have to poison the wine by taking off his pants and farting. He felt very calm in his heart. He picked up the wine glass and swallowed it. There was no pungency in his mouth at all.
But it was like a warm current flowing down the mouth, and I immediately felt the comfort that penetrated my heart and lungs.
Then, the faint warmth quickly spread throughout the body, as if the energy was a little stronger.
"This is the secret method of our elves. It is made from six unique plant fruits. And... after drinking it, it is more beneficial to the practice of magic. I know you are a magician, so I specially prepared such a good thing
Normally, the elders of our clan can only drink this stuff on some special days when offering sacrifices."
Luoxue put down her wine glass and looked at Du Wei.
Du Wei laughed, met Luo Xue's eyes, and shook his head deliberately: "You don't mean what you said. Luo Xue, Luo Xue. With your cultivation, can't you feel that the fluctuation of magic power in my body is very different from before?
?”
Luoxue smiled lightly: "Yes, I feel it. I was curious in my heart. Your magic power cultivation was already quite good. I originally thought that after four years of not seeing each other, you must have made a breakthrough in your realm. I thought that when we meet again
, your magic level should have broken through in one fell swoop and entered the holy level. But... I don’t know why, but for some reason, your originally proud magic power seems to..."
"Huh, but it seems to be gone, right?" Du Wei deliberately took the initiative to finish the second half of Luoxue's sentence, his eyes flickering as he looked at Luoxue.
Luoxue didn't try to hide it, but calmly sat down and nodded lightly.
Du Wei pondered for a moment, then suddenly smiled, stretched out a finger, and tapped the wine glass on the table that he had just drank from. Then he crushed it with his fingertips, and the wine glass that was originally like a green leaf rolled up.
, it was soon crushed flat by him, and stretched out again like a flat leaf.
Luoxue's eyes moved and she nodded.
The green leaves of this wine glass may seem ordinary, but they are actually something extremely rare among the elves. They are the leaves of a magical plant uniquely cultivated by the elves. This kind of leaves is extremely strong and is the top among some of the elves.
It is a good material used by strong men to make weapons and armor. In addition to its solid body, it also has inherent magical properties.
Such a thin leaf may seem ordinary, but if an orc were to hit it with a hammer, it would never be flattened. Duwei crushed it lightly with one finger, and it looked like this, and
Luoxue didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of magic power on Du Wei, so it was obviously due to pure power!
"Unexpectedly... you actually gave up the devil and practiced martial arts." Luoxue sighed: "This is really beyond my expectation."
As it spoke, a cold light suddenly flashed across its brows, and when it held its hand, the wine glass in front of it immediately emitted a ray of lavender light, and shot toward Du Wei!
Du Wei looked calm. He watched the wine glass come over, took a breath, raised his finger and pointed at it. With a pop, he saw the wine glass immediately spinning rapidly in the air and flying towards Luoxue.
go back.
Luoxue looked a little surprised. She raised her right hand, as if making a strange gesture, and lifted it far in the air. The green wine glass suddenly split into six petals and changed into six directions. At the same time,
It shot towards Du Wei again. Only six rays of light were seen, as fast as lightning!
Du Wei's eyes finally showed a trace of seriousness. He was still sitting there, watching the six-petal green leaves flying in front of him. He smiled at the corner of his mouth. He stretched out his hand as if in a gentle movement, calmly and unhurriedly, and raised his hand in mid-air.
One picked it with gentle hands, just like picking flowers!
His movements did not seem to be fast. However, the six lightning-like rays of light were not even close to him, and he picked the six-petal fragments one by one from the air with his calm and slow movements.
After holding it in his hand, Du Wei moved, pressed, and pressed with his fingers. When he took back his hand, the leaf in front of him had been re-integrated into a complete green leaf. Where were there any signs of fragmentation?
When Luoxue saw this, she was finally moved. She frowned and said, "You... actually entered the holy level with martial arts? But the last time we met, you were still very lowly in the field of martial arts. In just four years,
, you jumped from a martial arts beginner to the holy level? It’s really shocking!”
Du Wei seemed calm on the surface. In fact, these seemingly calm attacks just now allowed him to use almost all his strength.
He put down his hand at this moment, but only because his wrist was already heavy and his back began to sweat.
Although he has an almost abnormal physique, after all, he has been learning martial arts for too short a time. Although he was already at the Holy level, it was based on the level of magic. Including the Grand Knight Commander who killed the Holy Knights in the ring that time.
Because of his dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, coupled with the martial arts of "Gongyue Dance", it is no longer a pure martial arts, but has magical attributes in it.
Later, I lost my magic power, which meant that I lost 70% of my 100% ability. I started practicing martial arts again, and recently I barely managed to return to the holy level, but my level has already deteriorated a bit compared to when I went overseas to look for Chris. Just a few days ago
Next, he tried his best to use it. Luoxue's attack contained powerful earthly holy power. He almost used all his strength before forcefully using the rules of time and space, using slow and fast, and picked off six green leaves.
.
Luoxue is not a fool. She is far stronger than Du Wei. Naturally, it can be seen that Du Wei seems to be doing it easily these few times, but in fact he has tried his best. However, Du Wei can break through the holy level by practicing martial arts in just a few years.
, this kind of miracle is always shocking.
Sighing, Luoxue looked at Du Wei and smiled: "I was originally worried that your strength would decline, but now it seems that you have taken a different path and taken a path that ordinary people can't imagine. It seems that I am
No need to worry about you."
Judging from its expression, it seemed that Du Wei had shown great strength and it was actually very happy and relieved.
After staring at Du Wei for a while, Luoxue asked in a low voice: "Du Wei, what do you think of this war?"
After hearing this, Du Wei couldn't help but sneered, shook his head and said, "What you are asking is too strange. You are invaders, we are just resisting to protect our homeland. There seems to be no point in asking this kind of question."
Luoxue smiled softly: "Protect your homeland... But is this land your homeland for humans?"
Du Wei still shook his head: "No one can tell clearly what happened ten thousand years ago. But now we only know that humans have lived here for ten thousand years. From generation to generation, we humans have multiplied and established themselves on this land.
Civilization. For example, if you plant a field of fruit trees on a piece of land, and when it is time to harvest, a group of outsiders suddenly come and tell you that this land belonged to them eight hundred years ago, so they want you to combine the land with the harvested land.
Let all the fruit trees out... Humph, Luoxue, it's you. Are you willing?"
Luoxue sighed quietly, but also shook her head and admitted: "Yes, if it were me, I wouldn't agree."
Du Wei then nodded: "Most people in the world don't know what happened ten thousand years ago. But I do know. From my personal emotional standpoint, maybe I will also treat those of you who were exiled in the past.
The race is born with a trace of compassion. But... now it is absolutely impossible for humans to give up their homes where they have lived for generations!"
Luoxue said nothing.
Du Wei continued: "You want to live, you want to survive. You want to return. These cannot be said to be wrong. But just because you want to live, should we humans give up our homes and then all die?
Luoxue, you are not a mindless thing like an orc, you should understand what I mean."
The Elf King was still silent. He suddenly tapped his fingers and asked in a strange tone:
"But...Duwei. With the current situation...can you see the end of this war? Can you see it?"
As soon as this question was asked, Du Wei suddenly fell silent.
He suddenly felt a heavy feeling in his heart. Then he smiled bitterly, grabbed a green wine bottle shaped like a pointed leaf on the table, poured himself a glass, drank it all, and then sighed and shook his head:
"I can't see! Or...I can't see it temporarily."
"Ten years, thirty years, fifty years...one hundred years..." Luoxue's voice was a little difficult: "Perhaps our descendants after you and me will continue to fight like this generation after generation! Perhaps, you humans, with the help of your huge
Our country and deep national power can push us back time and time again, but we will launch wars of return again and again... Maybe we will reappear the 'dark age' of 10,000 years ago, no, maybe far away
It’s longer than that dark age.”
At this point, Luoxue looked at Du Wei: "Do you think that if you continue to fight wars for a hundred years or more, what will be left of your human civilization? How much will be left?"
Du Wei suddenly became annoyed. He slammed the table hard, stared at Luoxue, and shouted: "Okay! Luoxue! You don't have to be so merciful! Don't forget, you are the invaders! You are the one who started the war!"
"
"But are we wrong? We just want to survive!" Luoxue squinted her eyes. There was a cold light in her eyes.
Du Wei sneered repeatedly and stared into Luoxue's eyes: "You invited me here. If you just talk about these nonsense, then Luoxue, I am really disappointed. You will do such boring things!"
Du Wei tried to anger Luo Xue by saying this, but when Luo Xue heard this, he didn't look angry at all. Instead, he stood up leisurely, walked slowly, came to the wall, raised his hand, and gave the wall a faint sweep.
The wall was originally covered with green and crystal clear vines. Under the sweep of the falling snow, they suddenly retreated silently in all directions. After the vines retreated, they exposed the bottom of the wall, revealing something!
Du Wei followed Luo Xue's hand and looked over. After just one glance, he immediately held his breath, widened his eyes, and stared at the thing on the wall.
In the hall, Luo Hart had been sitting quietly aside. Whether Du Wei and Luo Xue were trying to make a move or speaking sharply, there was no room for him to interrupt. But now his eyes were cast on the wall, looking at the wall.
After looking at it twice, he suddenly couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah!"
Du Wei stared at the things on the wall for a long time. The expression on his face was uncertain, his lips were pursed tightly, and his fingers could not help but clenched into fists.
The hall fell into silence for a moment.
After a long time, the three people's breathing gradually calmed down from the heavy breathing, and Du Wei turned to stare at Luoxue: "Humph! Luoxue, what do you mean by creating this thing?!"
Luoxue shook her head and stood by the wall, staring at the things on the wall. She did not look back, but said leisurely: "Du Wei, do you think it is possible for us and you, as several races, to completely exterminate each other?"
How big is it?"
Du Wei was no longer lying at this moment, and immediately shook his head: "The possibility is very small, very slim. It is easy to win or lose, but it is difficult to completely exterminate the opponent's clan!"
"That's it." Luoxue turned around and looked at Du Wei with a smile on her face: "Since we can't exterminate each other, then... why not coexist?"
Du Wei gritted his teeth secretly, but squinted his eyes and looked at the wall again.
On the wall is a map of the mountains and rivers of Roland Continent!
At this moment, this map has been divided into several colors... Originally the entire continent was the territory of the Roland Empire, but on this map, the northern end of the continent includes the Frozen Forest, and the south of the Frozen Forest to the Empire
The frontier of the northern line, facing the sea to the east, starts from the river, goes all the way west, along the main fortress in the middle, and then to the Qili Malu Mountains in the west. Everything north of this line of defense has been painted in several other colors.
!
South of the defense line, the color of the map is white, with "Roland Empire" marked on it.
To the north of the defense line, it was divided into several small areas: the original frozen forest was painted silver, and the words marked on it were: Elf.
South of the forest and north of the human defense line, the land about one and a half provinces in size (that is, the bitter cold land in the north that humans have given up on) is painted brown and marked: Orcs.
The northern section of the Kilimaro Mountains in the west was cut off and painted black with the label: Dwarf.
"We elves have never been a warlike race. We only require the lowest condition: survival. We have no ambitions or needs for land. We elves are a race that lives in the forest. This frozen forest, in ancient times,
Even if it belongs to the territory of our elves, you humans don’t need this forest now, leaving it to us elves to live in! The dwarves are not born to live in the plains, and the mountains are their best homes. The northern part of the Qilima Mule Mountains
The mountains stretch for thousands of miles, enough for the dwarves to inhabit... The only problem is the orcs. In terms of living habits, the orcs are closest to you humans. They live on the plains, build houses, and establish kingdoms. However,
When you humans established this defense line, you had already given up this piece of land in the north. Although you humans think this land is a barren land, it is just the right place for orcs to inhabit..."
Luo Xue said lightly and glanced at Du Wei: "Ten thousand years ago, we used to coexist on the mainland, but because of that accident, the current situation of these ten thousand years was caused. So, why can't we return to ten thousand years ago?
What was the coexistence situation like 20 years ago? Human beings and us sinners were all once residents of this continent..."
Du Wei suddenly laughed. He made a gesture, interrupted Luoxue's words, and looked at Luoxue. After a while, his eyes revealed some real sincerity bit by bit, and then he
Sighed.
"Luoxue, Luoxue! What should I say? Should I say you are great? Or should I mock you for being too naive? Too whimsical?"
