Gold is Justice

I don't know if Jester understood the truth of this until the last moment before his death in battle?

Ah... It would be fine if he died like that without knowing anything. After all, he could think that he died a heroic battle. At the last moment before his death, he might still feel that this monster was fighting side by side with him, right?Judging from his naive idea that he hopes that the entire elf army will unite and gather under the elf king's command, it may be a relief for him to die in battle like this.

Ah, yes.Think about it carefully, am I the first one to leave that illusion?

At that time, did Ariel understand everything involved?

No, she couldn't possibly be as thoughtful as she thought.

But even if she wanted it, there was nothing. This is a matter within our elf army. She still doesn't understand what it means to be the one who survived between herself and Jester.At most, she could guess that she was forcibly brought into the illusion, and with a little more, she might also be able to guess that the illusion itself was a game to kill Jester.I'm afraid, that's all.

As for Jester...

"Ugh……"

Little Liquor walked to the window, pushed open the window, stretched out the glass in his hand, and poured it slowly.Accompanied by the clear wine swaying in the night sky, the seductive aroma of the wine also spread at this moment, as if paying homage to a dead friend.

"I'm sorry, my friend. Rest in peace, my comrade."

From before to now, Little Spirits has never hated Jester.

The enthusiasm, loyalty, and unity of this elf, who is all about the future of the entire elf army, is really a very good companion.

Even if the two parties have hurt each other, even if they are intrigues, even if the person who imprisoned the other party is taken as a hostage, Xiao Liquor does not even have the slightest thought of hating him.

If it weren't for this route dispute, Xiao Lijiu probably would have always respected this elf, and then wished him good luck on the battlefield in his heart.

It's a pity that he really doesn't understand... what this war requires is definitely not free will.

All members of the Elven Army should not have their own will, and all wills should serve the great Elf King.He didn't understand these, let alone the meaning of this sentence...

such a pity!

What a good man he is, what an excellent talent... But now, we really don't need the so-called free will.Really, nothing is needed...

Little Liquor slowly opened the window, and at this moment, the wind blew past his cheeks, making him feel a bit of coolness on his cheeks.

He paused, reached out and wiped it lightly, only to find that it was tears...

The tears shed for the dead comrades-in-arms and colleagues.

----

Ariel never expected that she would be in a coma for almost two full months!

What she didn't expect was that during the two months when she was in a coma, things would change so dramatically!

At dawn, all the members of Mermaid Song who were still stationed in Giant Ocean City flocked into the office of the mayor's mansion. The first thing these members saw was that their president had woken up and was sitting At the desk, I carefully read the records of various events in the past two months.

Although the members of Song of the Mermaid had excited and excited smiles on their faces, when they saw the haze on Ariel Garcia's face, the joyful voices that they wanted to blurt out suddenly stopped at this moment. All of them stood in front of their desks, their hands down, without saying a word.

Ariel was wearing a shawl, and her blond hair was now a little groomed, and it was no longer stuck in a mess like when she just woke up.Now, she flipped through the dossier in front of her, and after carefully reviewing the records in front of her, she slowly raised her head, those cold eyes like knives were staring at the guild members in front of her, the corner of her mouth was Not even the slightest smile.

As the bodyguard who knew Ariel immediately after she woke up last night, Mochi is now standing beside Ariel silently with her hands down.Even now that the sun was shining through the window, she didn't dare to move.She could only move slightly to the side when the sun was about to hit her feet to avoid being directly exposed to the sun.

"When I found out I've been Sleeping Beauty for two months, you know what was the first thing I thought of?"

Ariel closed the account book in her hand, and with that very sweet smile on her face, she looked at the people in front of her.

One thousand, 660 and eight chapters of the mermaid army's rest period

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't dare to speak.

Ariel interlaced her fingers, propped her chin on the table, and continued to say with that smiling expression——

"What I thought was that you didn't call me up with the kiss of true love? Did I not tell you what my true love is in advance? Keke, tell me, what is my true love?"

Ke Ke standing over there was taken aback for a moment, then he was a little afraid to look at Ariel in front of him, after trembling for a while, he finally said: "Yes... yes... do you want me... to kiss the elder sister of the president...? "

"It's money."

The smile pattern on Ariel's face remained unchanged, and she continued——

"I like money, and I like a lot of money. I even thought that if you told me how much food and how much money I earned next to my pillow every night, maybe I could wake up straight away. But how did you To me? Huh? You tell me, our soldiers took so much painstaking effort to take down Heize Province, such a large piece of territory, why did I just wake up, half of the most fertile land came directly from us I flew away from the registration list? Come on, you guys explain to me, are these territories under some kind of magic? Or is it that the Demon King Army re-launched the attack while I was asleep and directly took these places?"

Brad looked left and right, saw no one answered, and said, "President, it's not magic, it's an ambassador sent by the Blue Bay Empire—"

"I know it's the ambassador. If you don't know how to answer me, Brad, you can not answer. You and your wife, Buffy, stand by the side obediently, so that I won't trouble you."

When Brad and Buffy were yelled at like this, they immediately shrank their necks tremblingly, stood beside them, and stopped talking.

On this side, Ariel continued to look at the crowd, with the same smile on her face, as if she was still waiting for an answer.

Among the crowd, Cream's complexion looked a little pale. He looked around and saw that none of them answered, he couldn't help but let out a breath, took a step forward, and said, "I'm sorry, President, when I got the news I realized that I had been cursed...I didn't mean to blame Ms. Mochi, it was because I accidentally fell under the curse, which led to the paralysis of the intelligence system..."

Ariel turned her eyes to the intelligence chief, nodded lightly, and said, "You really should pay attention. You received the intelligence that the enemy gave you so easily. Cream, I don't care about your personal information." How outstanding your ability is, but once you fainted, the entire intelligence department will start to feel like a holiday. This is a bit too exaggerated. Haven't you trained any effective assistants to help you when you have no time to manage? Should I be in charge? Until now, the only thing I have is the approximate date and place of birth of Kenton. I don’t know what kind of person he is, what kind of personality he is, and who is behind the command. The importance of intelligence information I believe you should be more important than me, if all these things are investigated in advance, is it possible for you to make such a stupid decision?"

Dak exhaled, stood up, and said: "President, I took the lead in making the final decision. I know that I have done too much to cede half of the territory to the commoners of the Blue Bay Empire and let them cultivate it. , so if you want to punish, please punish me."

"And I!"

Sweet Wine Cheese also stepped forward. He swallowed, reached out and grabbed Duck's sleeve, and looked at Ariel in front of him with a little fear in his eyes: "It's me... I'm going to tell that Kenton , said that at most half of the territory can be ceded, so... so I have to bear this responsibility! President, if you want to punish me, please punish me!"

Hearing that Dake and Tianjiuche took the initiative to receive the punishment, Ke Ke at the side was frightened for a moment, and wanted to step forward to receive the punishment.

But at this time, Margot raised the bright staff in his hand and tapped the ground lightly, saying: "This matter, we are indeed at fault. But now is not the time for you to perform one by one to receive punishment , the most important thing is how to solve this matter.”

Margot turned to Ariel over there, and said, "Of course, I'm not trying to shirk my responsibility. Not stopping their decision means I acquiesce. But President, let's think about what to do now." Let’s deal with this matter? They say we are robbers and refuse to return their things after robbing them. There must be an explanation for this kind of thing.”

To be honest, Ariel felt that she would not be able to bear it if she continued to be so tough.She let out a little breath, and the smile on her face finally gradually disappeared, turning into a helpless wry smile.

After opening the file in his hand and continuing to glance at it, he said——

"Each of you will be deducted half of your wages for the next year. I hope you can take this matter as a lesson. Next, let's deal with the half of Heize Province territory that you sent out."

Looking at the file, Ariel continued to say——

"From the point of view of the content, you have sent out the entire northern part of Heize Province. The civilians of the Blue Bay Empire should have arrived one after another within this month and started farming. It is the end of April, just right Catch up with the last wave of spring plowing."

"On the other hand, the entire southern area of ​​Heize Province directly facing Tianhong Province and Diliao Province now belongs to our territory. We have the pressure to directly face the Demon King Army, and our defense line is equivalent to becoming a Blue Bay The defense line of the empire, make a barrier for them."

"Is there any movement in the Demon King's army now?"

Ariel looked up and asked.

Cheese yawned slightly at this time, and said——

"Those monsters are very strange. In the past two months, they have all been in a state of passive defense. They seem to be in a state of no fighting ability, or even a state of not wanting to fight."

Ariel pinched her chin and thought for a while, then asked, "How about the annihilation of the Warcraft stronghold in Heize Province?"

On the other side, Jelly responded: "It is advancing steadily, and those demons have no fighting will, so it is very convenient to clear it. Sometimes I even think that the weapons of our mermaid army are too powerful, so that those demons have no will to fight." The will to fight."

Although Jelly tried her best to make things easier, the expression on Ariel's face was not so relaxed.

She still remembers the scene in the illusion deeply. God knows whether those demons will start the war again after the end of the illusion.

On the other hand, what the saintess in Diliao Province is doing is indeed something strange... but there should be no time to pay attention to her now.

Stopping her own thinking, Ariel also looked at the guild members in front of her, looking at their expressions.

It can be seen that each of them is a little regretful and finally divided half of the land in Heize Province, and they will also serve as the city wall of the Blue Bay Empire to help them directly resist the Demon King's army.

Ariel understood the feeling of unwillingness in their hearts now, but there seemed to be nothing they could do.

That being the case, let's start with this aspect first.

"The situation has already been caused, but how things will develop in the end depends entirely on how we handle them." Ariel exhaled slightly, and said: "The land in Heize Province does belong to those civilians. Those civilians are welcome to come back to cultivate, and then live and work here in peace and contentment. After all, considering the total number of residents in all our areas is only 30, we can control Shannan Province, but it is indeed very difficult to support Heize Province. Therefore, this matter It’s not a bad thing.”

Hearing what Ariel said now, although everyone didn't know whether these words were really what she thought, or if they were just comforting everyone, at least it could calm down the atmosphere here a little.

At this point, everyone exhaled, and their movements became less rigid.

Ariel pulled the shawl on her shoulders, and continued: "How is the spring plowing going?"

After a moment of silence, Ke Ke came out and boldly said: "Sister President, spring plowing is basically... over. But the situation of spring plowing is not very ideal..."

Hearing this, Ariel smiled slightly, and said, "Oh? Why isn't it ideal?"

Seeing Ariel's smile now, everyone knew that the chairman must have some idea.

"Due to the insufficient population here, although we have urgently allocated a lot of cultivated land to use element vehicles and walk-behind cultivators for operation, the time is indeed a little tight. So far, only about 70.00% of the planned cultivated land area has been completed. farming."

Ariel nodded and said, "It's enough. Our population is not large, so it's good to be able to achieve such a cultivated land area. What's the situation in Blue Bay?"

Ke Ke continued: "The situation on their side...maybe a little worse. After all, they migrated here gradually during this period of time. I'm afraid that many people have not settled down yet, and maybe they are still worrying about their settlements. However, the people of the Blue Bay Empire are very despicable. They obviously sent a group of people who had originally settled in Haize Province to re-open the wasteland, so these people are the last to leave, and they are most eager to further covet our land. According to The current cultivation speed...they may not be able to keep up with the summer harvest."

Ariel nodded, then patted the table, and said: "Now, go and call the people from the Ministry of Agriculture to see how much grain you can harvest this summer. Then send people to establish a trade route with the people in Blue Bay in advance, and say We are willing to provide food to them."

Although everyone still had doubts in their hearts, until now, no one dared to deny the chairman's approach, so someone immediately went to the leader of the Ministry of Agriculture. After Ariel arranged some work, the leader of the Ministry of Agriculture It was a little strange, but he still followed the order.

"Didn't you say before that you don't know how to respond to Lanwan's statement? Then I think that you may not have been farming for too long."

Ariel raised her head, looked at the people in front of her again, and said slowly——

"For ordinary people, the land is the root of their life (harmony), and the food that can be grown from the land is their greatest expectation and reliance in life."

"Don't the people in Blue Bay want to use those peasants to confront us? Well, they say we are robbers, so we have to tell those peasants that our mermaid army is not only not robbers, but can still help them and liberate them People. We are just short of people now, and Lanwan has brought such a large group of people to our doorstep, there is no reason for us not to accept it!"

Seeing the smile gradually spreading on Ariel's face now, the guild members knew that the guild leader had already thought about how to deal with the situation in front of him.

This made the expressions on everyone's faces a little more relaxed.

However, they didn't relax for long, because soon Ariel asked each of them to go to the farmland to work in person, and learn how to farm and how to weed and pest control with the farmers in charge of farming!

Of course, not everyone is downcast here, just like Brad and Buffy seem very happy now.After all, Brad grew up farming when he was a child, and now he is returning to the old craft.And Buffy is a flower fairy, so farming is of course to her liking.

Ariel only hopes that this kind of farming work can make these guild members understand who gave their lives, and let them know who they are fighting for!

I'm afraid they won't feel much just talking about it, but I believe that after going to the fields a few more times, they will definitely be able to improve their thinking.

In addition to letting her guild members go to work in the fields, Ariel also issued this order to the entire mermaid army, and took the initiative to take the lead in entering the farmland with a cane, and drove those elemental machines to carry out farming activities.And those cadres above the middle-level leaders saw that the leader had taken the initiative to work in the farmland, so they were naturally embarrassed to continue standing by. operate.

I have to say that using the elemental machine to spread fertilizer, remove insects, and water seems to be much more convenient. If it weren’t for the development of such agricultural elemental vehicles, Ariel would really be on the ground facing the loess with her back to the sky. Not to mention the low efficiency of sowing seeds, the work intensity alone would make her unbearable.

Since May, the entire mermaid army seems to have entered a period of rest. After cleaning up the demon strongholds entrenched in Heize Province, they will no longer launch active attacks on the border of the Demon King Army, forming a threat. A posture of pressure but not attack.

In contrast, the changes in the Demon King's Army gradually spread to the Mermaid Army's camp.And the most important change is that the Demon King Army seems to have changed the previous situation of only attacking the territory of the original Blue Bay Empire. When the time just entered June, a large number of demons set out from the forbidden land and began to attack. Around the other countries marched.

Such a sudden change caught the Mermaid Army by surprise. Even if they wanted to notify other countries, they did not currently have a fast communication tool like Leiyu, so there was no way to deliver the news.

That is to say, under such circumstances, the overwhelming demons no longer imitate the posture of human marching, but rush out of the taboo land in a more primitive, wilder, and more violent state. Other countries swarmed up almost like a hungry tiger.

But... would such an attack destroy the surrounding empires in an instant?
