Warcraft Eternal Tree

Chapter 274 A great harvest

After Duke Webster returned to his castle, he quickly contacted Severn IX. Relying on the method of magical communication, the Duke succinctly told Severn IX in detail all the things he experienced during his trip to Braque Fortress.

Although generally speaking, the great nobles in the country would not be of the same mind as the royal family, but this time it was a national crisis. After seeing the power and "cruelty" of the night elves, he really had no intention of engaging in intrigues. He told Severn IX what he had seen and heard and even some speculations.

Severn IX was speechless for a long time after carefully reading Duke Webster's summons. He can be regarded as a talented and strategic monarch, otherwise he would not want to take advantage of the opportunity of foreign tribes to attack the small countries in the west to expand territory. If the plan hadn't changed, Esrazer might have had the fourth empire of mankind in a few years.

However, even as a ruthless emperor, he shudders when he thinks of the night elves calmly slaughtering 300,000 prisoners without any provocation.

That’s not 300,000 trees, nor 300,000 grasses! That’s three hundred thousand living humans! The night elves slaughtered 300,000 soldiers without any scruples just because they were not satisfied with the ransom and were too lazy to negotiate. This is really terrible!

Severn IX may not know that in the eyes of the night elves, 300,000 humans may really be inferior to 300,000 trees. At least, trees are the friends of elves, and the elves of the night elves can also absorb the wood element through trees to form wood that is used as consumables for the night elves.

And humans are just enemies. The night elves don't have all kinds of scruples like human nations. In a human country, when two countries are at war, unless one party is absolutely sure to destroy the other party, they will not do anything that touches the bottom line.

Otherwise, if you capture the nobles of our country this time and are unwilling to let our country redeem them, then the next time we capture the nobles of your country, we will not release them either. It's not good for both warring parties to go back and forth. What's more, the aristocracy will not allow this to happen.

Similarly, if one country captures a large number of soldiers from another country, it will usually let the enemy country redeem them. What else could be done? Keeping them is a waste of food. If you kill them, there is no guarantee that your country will not capture a large number of soldiers by the other side next time. The soldiers of human countries are not directly trained like the night elves. If everyone kills each other, isn't it because the country's power is weakening and others take advantage?

Because of these unspoken rules, except in times of extreme chaos, large-scale massacres of soldiers rarely occur on the continent of Eslaze, at least in the human world. In the past few hundred years, this was the first time that the Night Elves had massacred 300,000 Severn Kingdom troops at once.

What kind of enemy have we encountered? Severn IX was sitting in the imperial study room, feeling very tangled. Speaking of which, the Severn Kingdom was quite innocent. It gathered a large army to expand its territory, but before it could take action, it was caught off guard by a foreign race. He was preparing to invade other countries but was invaded by the night elves instead. It was really unlucky.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. The Severn Kingdom blocked the night elves from entering the human world. In addition, the Severn Kingdom is considered a relatively powerful kingdom among humans. Whether it is from the perspective of establishing prestige or obtaining resources and territory, occupying the Severn Kingdom is a good choice for the night elves.

After Severin IX thought silently for a while, he still didn't understand how the night elves appeared and what their purpose was. Simply, he stopped thinking about it and arranged other matters.

First, he widely spread the news that the night elves had killed 300,000 soldiers of the Severn Kingdom. First, it may arouse the indignation of the citizens and other troops; second, it may try to gain support from other countries through this news. Of course, in the second article, Severn IX did not have any illusions.

Then, he informed his ministers and other nobles of the ransom required by the night elves. Severn IX found it strange that the night elves did not make any bargaining moves in terms of ransom, and they only needed magic cores and magic crystal mines as ransom.

The prices of magic cores and magic crystal mines on the market are too high for nobles. With the materials hoarded by the nobles themselves, they could easily pay the ransom demanded by the night elves, and even have some money left over compared to giving them gold coins directly. Therefore, after hearing the news, the nobles were very satisfied and prepared magic cores and magic crystal mines to go to Brak Fortress to redeem their family's children.

In the next three days, nobles from the Severn Kingdom continued to come to Brak Fortress to use magic cores and magic crystal mines to redeem their family members and surviving private armies.

The night elves also abide by their agreement. As long as they pay enough magic cores and magic crystal mines, they will let others take them away. This made many nobles feel relieved after hearing the news that the night elves massacred an army of 300,000 people. They felt that these aliens who looked just like the elves and were said to be ancient elves were not very fierce.

However, the avenue of flesh and blood extending from Brak Fortress to the nearest city reminded these nobles that the night elves were not kind people. Although he seems to follow some rules, he is still very difficult to mess with. This view is shared by all countries that received intelligence within three days.

At the same time, this is also the impression the night elves hope to give to the outside world. Powerful and fierce, but not without the possibility of peaceful coexistence. Although the Night Elves were not as open-mouthed as the Lions, the number of nobles captured this time was really large, so just from the ransom, the Night Elves earned a lot of energy.

A rough calculation shows that the magic cores and magic crystal mines obtained through the ransom of the captured noble children, after being converted into energy and consuming the corresponding wood, can increase the night elves' existing troops by half!

This shouldn't be the only thing, but the night elves are now all equipped with enchanted equipment, so they consume a lot of energy. The reason why the night elves don't have the lion's mouth is because all the resources of the Severn Kingdom will soon be theirs, and the difference between getting them early and getting them late is not very big.

But that's not what Yu Fei cares about. As early as two and a half days ago, Avril's ritual of transforming into a hero through lower-level soul crystals was completed at the Elder Altar. As expected, the new Avril Lavigne became... just as Yu Fei had guessed.
