Elf Archer of Life in Another World
Chapter 426: The purpose of the Duke’s visit (Thank you for the tip~)
"What did Engus ask you to do with me? Find out some anecdotes from the past?"
The Duke of Usher turned out from behind the tree, glanced at Qi Youfeng first, then turned his gaze to Nian Nianhou for a moment, frowned, but then approached with interest:
"You look like this...not bad, not bad."
"Yes, Not Bad?"
Nian Nian Mingming has already prepared his mind for being rejected, and has also prepared a draft of rebuttal.
"What did Engus ask you to do with me?" The Duke began to pace around the two of them, as if thinking about something.
"I thought you knew."
Nian Nian stood there with Qi Youfeng, eyes following him.
Although the Duke who came to the Jesses Forest alone was no longer wearing the pile of gaudy cloth and gems, the blue-gray silk clothes on his body were estimated to be expensive, especially the three diamonds on the broad belt around his waist. A ruby the size of a bull's eye would probably give many witnesses the urge to rob.
Look at the golden sword beside this man - a real sword full of gems, and the arrogance and indifference on his face. At first glance, it seems that this is an aristocratic kid who is out for fun, and he is nothing but gold and jade. All he missed was a beating.
Even though he was a little ready to make a move, Nian Nian still didn’t dare to be too presumptuous and honestly explained:
Remember m in a second.
"Engus asked me to go to Usher City to find the Duke to inquire about the whereabouts of our clan leader."
"Your clan leader? I don't know." The Duke replied.
"Uh...this, that..."
The tone of this answer was so impatient that Nian Nian couldn't figure out whether he really didn't know or was too lazy to tell himself.
"I haven't been to Jesus for a long time. Seeing that you two are very free, I deigned to accompany you around."
...Who is accompanying whom? Nian Nian wanted to politely refuse this companion.
"Don't be too restrained. You can just act according to your original ideas. I will follow you quietly."
As if he had read through Nian Nian's thoughts, the Duke smiled and was magnanimous.
......
After realizing that they were unable to get rid of this follower named Duke, Nien Nian and Qi Youfeng no longer looked for wild beasts to hunt, but returned to Sibeier to unload the goods with Shi Sui.
"You two are very efficient. In just two days, you have gained more than the three teams we sent out combined."
Shi Sui accepted these complete animal furs with satisfaction and praised them.
The prey caught by Nien Nian and Qi Youfeng all have certain magical properties. These spiritual ferocious beasts are good materials for making arrows for Nien Nian, and they are rare and good commodities for Shi Sui.
And these things sent every year can be regarded as an instruction manual, indicating which parts of which ferocious beasts are useful. For example, for these newcomers to the human race, I am afraid no one will know the throat of the hell dog. There is also a piece of natural flint.
"We elves have an advantage when hunting in the forest. I have more experience than those novices." Nian Nian said modestly.
"I want all of this, what do you need?"
Shi Sui was not polite to them and asked directly.
"I don't need anything," Nian Nian shook his head. "I earned some bonuses and bounties in the City of Usher, plus the gold from the Art Festival, I'm still very rich."
"I need some cloth. The weaving industry of the elves is really not very developed." Qi Youfeng handed him a list. "Here is the place of production, as well as the size, length and color I need. Please excuse me."
Shi Sui reached out to take it and took a quick glance at it. Judging from the color, it should be used on Nian Nian.
"No problem, I'll have it delivered as soon as possible." Shisui nodded in agreement.
"How is your confidentiality work?" At this point, Nian Nian asked in a lowered voice.
"You don't have to ask for it. Many people here don't know what happened in the past two days."
The residents here in Sibeer are either young elf children or elf women who are inexperienced in the world. They have just returned to the Emerald Forest and have neither the need nor the ability to explore the abnormality on the border.
But these human players brought by Sui have limited communication with the elves, and have not yet explored that far. Even if they want to travel to and from the Huaxia District, they can only take a shortcut through the waterway along the snow-capped mountains and will not go out of the elves' territory. Go find Shore Pier.
Shi Sui even suspected that under the influence of the loose social structure and alienated interpersonal relationships of the elves, even if the whole world knew the fact that the Seas Forest was closed, there would still be elves here who were unaware of the matter.
"There are not many tribes in the east side of the Jaces Forest, but there are hordes of ferocious beasts. If Engus hadn't helped you open a trail, it would have been truly inaccessible." Nian Nian knew clearly.
"We haven't actually walked that road yet. We have just arrived and are still interested in sightseeing. We have no plans to go back yet. The team on the Chinese side lacks a guide, and I will not let them enter the mountain hastily."
Shi Sui shook the list in his hand and said:
"This will probably be the first batch of goods imported through the commercial route. By the way, I would also like to invite some monks from the sect to take a look and prepare for the placement of those elf women."
Those elven women who were once in captivity are still not used to life in the forest. They gradually understand the shame and the fact that their bodies have been destroyed. They are very afraid of interacting with other native elves. They stay in the house all day without saying a word. From a psychological point of view, I think it would be better to give them a different environment.
"Who do you plan to ask to be your guide?" Nian Nian looked around, "Where's Sanchi Shui? I didn't see him last time I came here."
"He just can't sit still," Shi Sui said with a smile, "He just came back from sending a message and has already met up with Song Qing's guards. They are going up the river to the foot of the snow-capped mountains."
When he first drilled the water channel, Song Qing brought some guards with him. Unfortunately, he later flew away on a dragon, and these guards were left on the two boats. They just happened to be taken back by the three feet of water this time.
"Then what? What about you?"
Nian Nian still remembers that Shi Sui once said that he wanted to quit the game and return to reality, and planned to hand over the position of president after things here got on track.
"Take your time, you won't leave things here in such a hurry," Shisui looked at the forest outside the wooden house, "Besides, the scenery here is also very suitable to enjoy slowly."
The Jaces Forest, which has avoided the expected flames of war, has spring-like weather all year round, abundant supplies, and frequent singing and dancing entertainment. It may be a good place to retire. After years of raids by hunting teams, even external beasts such as wild beasts have disappeared. The danger is also minimized.
"Gongzi Yan said that the reopened art festival is very high-end, and he is already persuading his grandfather to come here to travel and relax." Niannian also smiled.
Without the artifact, the two brothers and sisters of Dionysus did not cause any messy things anymore. Instead, they took steps towards the development of their artistic career in an orderly manner. They devoted themselves to turning the Forest of Jesus into a paradise of singing and dancing, and also excavated the There are many talents that have been buried.
However, it remains unclear whether the short night-long carnival left any mark on the hearts of the participants.
And how long this kind of comfortable, pleasant, and peaceful environment can last is uncertain every year.
"Speaking of which," Shi Sui may have thought of this question and looked out the window opposite, "Who is that person?"
Outside the window is the small lake shining with runes.
There is an invisible barrier protecting the small lake. Standing by the barrier is a man in luxurious clothes, looking at the rune in the lake, wondering what he is thinking.
"He's a..." Nian Nian thought for a moment, "a very rich guy."
She also didn't know if a hybrid like the Duke would inherit the hearing of the elves. The previous conversations were just that, but now she didn't dare to reveal this person's identity casually.
"Well," seeing that it was inconvenient for Nian Nian to say more, Nian Nian stopped asking and changed the subject, "You said before that you were going to the City of Usher to find someone?"
"Let's see again. I'm fine. Once Brother Feng leaves the country, he won't be able to come back."
For every year, this was actually the same topic, and the tracing mission had reached an impasse again, and her tone became even more helpless.
"Alas," Shi Suiye said with some regret, "I also really want to go to the legendary City of Usher, but unfortunately I don't have time in the near future."
When things here come to an end and are handed over to the new president, he will start a leisurely sightseeing trip. He will first visit various parts of the Jesses Forest and then visit the territories of other races.
After spending some time at ease in the Jesses Forest, he no longer had any interest in fighting and fighting for fame and fortune. He just wanted to look around and see the scenery.
"You can call me when you are free. I haven't been to many other places, and I am still very familiar with this three-acre area of Jesus Forest." Nian Nian held a glass of juice and smiled like crescent moons with his eyes.
"Forget it, I don't want to be a lightbulb," Shi Sui looked at Qi Youfeng, who was drinking tea silently, and was very satisfied with this man's sensible attitude without interrupting. "Just be a bodyguard with three feet of water."
"Then he should work harder, and so should you~"
Nian Nian straightened his back and looked kindly as if looking at his juniors.
When she was in Beitai City, Xingtianxia's large army had just broken through the sixty-level mark. For her, a leader among high-level players, these were all juniors.
"People like you and all of you are monsters," Shisui sighed, glancing at Qi Youfeng who was smiling broadly, "I don't have any nepotism to exploit."
Qi Youfeng simply benefited from Nian Nian's success. It was Simil who pushed him hard to cheat Nian Nian. Otherwise, even if he had gained some experience in the arena of Usher City, he would not have risen so quickly.
"It's a ridiculous compliment, I don't dare to take it seriously." Qi Youfeng said modestly.
Shi Sui shook his head, too lazy to say anything more to him, and looked at Nian Nian: "Aren't you going to meet up with the people from the mercenary group?"
"No, everyone has their own things to do, so there's no need to get together all the time." Nian Nian shrugged and replied.
Dion is urging Alexander to upgrade, Nick and John have just returned to the City of Usher, Sarah is sent on a mission by Agate, the dean of the Temple Academy, and York has heard about the art festival and is going to join in the fun with great interest. , Kraft is probably still living in his workshop, and the twins...
"Hyde and Jekyll said they were going to fulfill their obligations as teaching staff, but there has been no news from them for a long time. I don't know what they are busy with." Nian Nian was slightly worried.
"Then you plan to go to the human territory to find them next?" Shisui asked.
"this--"
"No, let's go to the dwarf territory."
The three people in the wooden house turned their heads and saw the man standing at the door.
"Sir, do you have business with the dwarves?" Nian Nian asked carefully.
She accompanied this big man on this journey, and also figured out some reasons why the Duke personally came to the Jesses Forest. In addition to seeing the actual situation of the border closure, I am afraid it was also because of the suddenly broken resource supply chain.
The auction houses and gladiatorial arenas in the City of Usher require a lot of money to maintain. Even if there is business going on, the gold mines in the Forest of Jesus are an indispensable reserve force.
Now that the border is suddenly closed, Jinzitun is stuck in the forest and can't get out. Maybe there will be a problem with the capital chain.
If he had just heard the conversation between himself and Shi Sui, was he planning to use the only passage to bypass the dwarves? Or should we directly cooperate with the dwarves?
"Go and sell things." His Excellency the Duke said calmly.
"Oh?" Shi Sui suddenly became interested.
"It has nothing to do with you. Don't inquire about things you shouldn't know, and don't talk too much about things you shouldn't leak. Just do your job quietly."
The Duke walked into the wooden house, stood in front of Shi Sui, and said arrogantly.
Shi Sui was not irritated by this level of slight, but just frowned slightly.
Nian Nian heard some profound meaning from this sentence and looked at him in surprise.
"Excuse me, your Excellency..." Shi Sui smiled politely.
The Duke pondered for a moment, then glanced at Nian Nian's surprised face with a hint of warning and sentiment:
"Lelfra."
leath fola, half blood, mixed blood.
Nian Nian lowered her head slightly and avoided his gaze.
After all, he is a hybrid of humans and elves. After all, he cares about the bond of blood and does not want to get the comfortable life here into any disputes.
At the very least, he would not expose the passage through the snow-capped mountains and introduce the northern dwarves into the Jesses Forest for some gold.
And she had to think of other ways to disrupt the situation where these three races coexisted.
