The golden tree lost its roots and died quickly. There was some kind of connection between the elf's soul and the golden tree. All the elves in the city felt a great sadness for a while, and all the babies began to cry.The city was also in chaos.The old regent knew that he had made an unforgivable mistake. In desperation, he used ancient spells to sacrifice himself, trying to use his magic power to prolong the life of the golden tree, but his little magic power could only delay the growth of the golden tree. Death - no, to be more precise, it just makes the body of the golden tree cool down a little slower.And the old regent merged with the corpse of the golden tree.
After hearing what happened, Leoric couldn't help sighing and said: "Oh, comrades, production safety is more important than heaven! This kind of thing happened... Well, let's put aside the accountability and so on. The most urgent thing is to let the Let the city restore order, and then make a conclusion. Now you call all the residents of the city to the Golden Tree Square, and I will give a speech."
At this moment of national calamity, only the "high elf" Leoric can stand up and speak.
Romila and the others quickly complied. They dispatched their subordinates to make announcements and asked the flower fairies to shout in the air, calling the residents of the city to the "Golden Tree Square" to listen to Leoric's speech.After the lost golden tree, Leoric, the high elf, is the only belief of the elves.As soon as they heard that he was going to call the crowd, the half-blood elves poured into the square one after another, hoping that this "person who touched the truth" could give them some enlightenment at this desperate moment.
After a while, thousands of people came to the square, and the whole square was packed.Leoric climbed onto the thick branch of the golden tree, looked down at the half-blood elves below, and said loudly, "My servants! Listen to me!"
"The golden tree is dead, this is an indisputable fact. I know that you are now confused, fearful, sad and angry, I know, I know all of them. The golden tree is our common belief. Without it, the civilization of the half-blood elves will be lost." will cease to exist."
"However, a civilization doesn't die instantly, it just fades away. A civilization fades away only when its people lose hope. In other words, as long as we're alive and hopeful, our civilization won't die. will die immediately, and our country will not perish."
"I, the one who touches the truth, the high elf Leoric, will show you the way."
After saying this, the decadent elves below all raised their heads to look at Leoric. Those eyes were confused, like a group of blind lambs.
"Half-blood elves cannot do without the golden tree, and I will never allow the golden tree to die like this! For the sake of truth and our country, I will definitely find a way to save the golden tree! Or find a new, living golden tree seed."
If someone else said this, no one would believe it, but Leoric had been creating miracles all along, and he had a halo around him. His words gave hope to the elves, and many young people had light in their eyes.However, the slightly older people would not trust this kind of chicken soup. They looked at Leoric with those dull eyes as if they were asking: How can you find a new golden tree?
This is not the first time for Leoric to give an inspiring speech, he continued: "I will set up a golden tree recovery committee, which will be personally in charge of me, and I will send people to all over the world to find clues about the golden tree seeds. I will also allocate a special fund to maintain the operation of this project. We will disclose the investigation report to the people every quarter, and at the same time, we will set up a petition mechanism so that the people can supervise the work of the committee and accept the opinions of the people."
This is a very sincere policy. After hearing this, people nodded silently in agreement.Leoric continued: "However, the recovery of the golden tree is not something that can be achieved in three or two days. For this great goal, the elves must be prepared to fight a protracted war, which may take a year or even longer During this period, our city still needs to operate normally, and the relocation must continue. My people, I hope you will continue to live in a positive state and continue to build our kingdom. Because the richer and stronger the country, The easier it is to achieve our goals."
"Please believe me! I am the high elf Leoric, the one who touches the truth, and the master of all half-blood elves! Since you choose to be loyal to me, I will also shoulder this mission. We must return to Under the shelter of the Golden Tree! Trust me, trust King Leoric!"
Following Leoric's cry, the fighting spirit of the elves was finally ignited, and people shouted "Long live King Leoric!" The eyes of the decadent people had light again.Afterwards, after the speech was over, the elves disbanded on the spot and returned to their posts. As a result, order was barely restored in the city.
The crisis was finally over, and Leoric breathed a sigh of relief.At this moment, Romila stepped forward, and she saw tears in her eyes, and said to Leoric in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, you are so brave."
"Brave?" Leoric wondered.
Romila said: "To take on such a heavy responsibility, this is something I never dared to imagine! Do you know? It is precisely because the half-blood elves believe that you can do what you say, that they can regain their broken souls. In other words, you are now shouldering the expectations and fate of a hundred thousand half-blood elves. Just thinking about it, this weight will make me unable to breathe."
Leoric laughed and said, "It's only the expectations of 10 people, but I still have the vision of millions of people on the highlands recovering their homeland! What's the point? Just try to do it."
After hearing this, Romila respected him, but at the same time she was very surprised, and said, "Your Majesty, you..."
"Privately don't call him Your Majesty," Leoric said.
"Well, Leo, you are under so much pressure, don't you feel scared?"
"Not afraid," replied Leoric. "The worst thing that can happen is death, and I'm not afraid of death, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Facing his open-minded response, Romila was momentarily speechless.
At this moment Leoric turned to look at the big tree and said, "Old Regent, is there?"
"Here!" A human face appeared on the bark, "Lord Leoric, what are your orders?"
Leoric said: "Don't worry about the Golden Tree. I'll come back and find a solution, but you made such a big mistake and you must take responsibility."
"Yes, I am willing to bear all the punishment."
Leoric thought for a while and said, "Then you will be responsible for continuing to maintain the corpse of the golden tree. Although this tree is dead, it still has some magical power. You should take good care of it and let it provide more power for the half-blood elves." Some nourishment."
This is equivalent to no punishment, because the old regent originally planned this, and he even merged with the golden tree for this reason.When the old regent heard that Leoric did not punish him, he was moved to tears, and said, "Master Leoric! I will definitely do my best. With my current magic power, I can still extend the golden tree's lifespan for half a year. I also hope that you can find some clues to revive the golden tree in the past six months."
"it is good!"
The matter of the golden tree is like this for the time being, whether it is to revive the golden tree or find tree species, it needs to be considered in the long run.However, Leoric was very interested in the "armory" mentioned by the old regent, so he asked the old regent to take him to find the ancient ruins buried under the tree roots.The old regent quickly said: "It's on the south side of the tree trunk, where the black smoke is coming out! I'm not physically able to move around, so let the servants take you there."
Afterwards, Leoric and the others followed a few elf servants to the door of the "Armoury".In the deep cave, stood a seven or eight-meter-high bronze gate, decorated with complex runes and exquisite pattern decorations.Romila and Serawi also followed, and both of them looked at the gate with a look of fear. Romila said: "There is a strong magic power inside this door, be careful!" Serawi also said: "Yes. That's right, my hairs are standing on end!"
Leoric noticed a stone tablet next to the gate, and some words were written on the stone tablet in the language of the high elves.After 200 years of history, those words are still very clear. He looked at the words on it and said: "It is said on the stone tablet that this is indeed a secret armory built to fight against the demons at that time. It is said that if the battle line is pushed to the south, the sacred The Allied Forces of China and Earth can open this secret armory and use the weapons inside to raid the rear of the Demon Race..."
Leoric knelt down and continued to read the following text, saying: "The stele also said that the armory is divided into three floors. The first floor is the underground armory, which contains cannons, shells, crossbows, and swords driven by magic power. Armor and so on; the second layer stores a large number of magic scrolls, the kind that can be used after tearing; the third layer hides ten 'Chakaro' emperor armors, which should be some kind of very powerful armor? I Wow, that sounds pretty awesome."
The lava cannon that Leoric is using now was obtained by the demons from the "underground people".It is said that in the north, there is a human civilization living in an underground cavity. These people have advanced technology and can manufacture many exquisite handicrafts. Later, this civilization was completely slaughtered by demons, leaving only their servants—the goblins. down.Later, some goblins inherited the civilization of the underground people, and began to produce various handicrafts and carry out various commercial activities, and gradually developed, forming two civilizations of "hai goblins" and "sandwood goblins".
Sailawei said: "It sounds very powerful, but that is the old shareholder 200 years ago, right? It was powerful at that time, and it may be outdated now."
Romila said: "Not necessarily. In the past 200 years, the civilizations of all races in the Thick-earth Continent have been degrading. The underground civilization has lost a lot of technology because of that catastrophe. The things it creates now are not as good as those in ancient times. The things here are very curious..." Romila came to the door and murmured: "But how to open this armory?" She knocked on the bronze door with her fingers, her voice was dull, um, it seemed to be solid.
Serawi said: "What's so difficult about it? Just smash the door open, or dig a hole in the ground, right?"
Romila shook her head and said, "This is the armory built by the high elves. It's definitely not that easy to get in."
"That's true." Leoric continued to read the text on the stone tablet, and said, "It says on the stone tablet that there is a magical defense system in the armory, and if you break through it forcibly, it will trigger a system attack. What's more terrible is that, If this defense system fails to stop the intruder, the machine inside will activate the self-destruction system to directly destroy the materials inside, so as to prevent the enemy from succeeding. In other words, we can only enter if we find the correct way to open the door."
Leoric touched the bronze gate with his hand and dusted off the floating dirt on it. At this time, he found a circular groove, which was in the middle of a piece of relief, which just separated the pattern of the relief, as if it were a complete A circle has been buckled off the painting.Leoric said: "Based on my experience in playing puzzle games for many years, this groove is where the key is placed. If we can find a circular plate of this size and insert it, we can open the armory. "
This is easy to say, but this "dish key" may have been lost for 200 years. Where can I find such an old antique?Unless the heavens open their eyes, I have a pity for the dignified commander Li who doesn't even have an Italian cannon, and rewards me out of thin air, then it will be possible to open this armory.

Chapter 240: Don't I just want to marry a wife right after I got married?
Lao Li looked at the bronze gate in front of him and salivated greedily. He had no idea about the things on the second and third floors, but there were cannons on the first floor!After these few battles, the effect of the lava cannon is really great. You don’t even know who you are when you run down the bombardment. The deterrence is full, and the enemy will surrender as soon as the cannon is fired. Leoric really wants to do more. Come to Taiwan.And based on the fact that the Mozu can present the lava cannon to the Crow King, this means that the Mozu itself has a lot of lava cannons in stock. Now I am showing off my power with two cannons. If two hundred units come out, why don't I knock out GG on the spot?Then the enemy cannons would become the fireworks in my background board.
Forget it, there is no rush.Leoric asked someone to write down the extension of the disc groove where the key was installed, and sent someone to look for it when he returned.
It was getting late at this time, and Leoric and the elf sisters took the flying dragon back to Wild Wolf City. Early the next morning, Leoric arranged two important things. The first one was to establish the "Golden Tree Recovery" Committee", with him personally as the person in charge, and let the Elf's "Stag Rangers" and "Flower Fairy Communications" lead the investigation; in addition, he arranged for Hayter of the Hawkeyes to investigate the "circle" of the armory. disk key".
Leoric came to Captain Haight's camp and told him about it.After hearing about this task, Haite showed some disdain, and said, "Find a plate? That's fine, but aren't we going to fight the barbarians soon? Let me do this kind of thing now... Commander, I'm telling the truth , Let anyone do this kind of trivial matter, I will arrange a few subordinates, I want to stay in the Northern Expedition Army and continue to kill barbarians."
Hite obviously disdains such a thankless task.Hite's ability is not bad, but after getting along with him for a period of time, Leoric found that this person is arrogant and conceited, and he is very successful. This kind of person is embarrassing to use.However, Leoric didn't have any better candidates, so he asked Height, "Then do you have any suitable candidates?"
Heite pondered, and said: "The people under my command are a bunch of trash, let me think about it..."
In the middle of the conversation, suddenly someone stood up beside him and said, "King Leoric, I want to accept this mission."
"You?" Leoric looked sideways, and saw that it was a middle-aged man with a beard. Leoric had a little impression of him, thought for a while, and said, "Kuros?"
The man saluted and said: "Yes, it is a great honor for His Majesty to remember the name of a pawn like me."
At this moment, Hait frowned and said, "What do you do with the mission given to me by the marshal? Besides, you are a general! It's hard to say how loyal you are, how can you do such a secret mission?"
Kouros was humiliated by Height, but he was not annoyed. He just said: "My ability is definitely not as good as Captain Height, but the leader also said that this is just a chore to find things. Since it is a chore, I should do it. This kind of inferior people with insufficient ability and junior qualifications should do it. The group leaders should kill the barbarians instead of looking for plates."
Hearing this, Heit frowned, and said, "Then you shouldn't bypass me and talk directly to King Leoric! You are not qualified, inferior."
"Yes, this is my mistake, because I want to make meritorious service and atone for my crime too much." He said very sincerely, "You see, I am a sinner. If I don't strive for opportunities, I will be a sinner for the rest of my life. I also want to be with freedom Everyone is fighting for glory, or sharing worries for His Majesty—who doesn’t desire honor? Even people like me.”
"You are quite ambitious." Hite silently nodded.Kouros bowed and saluted with a smile on his face.
Leoric watched silently from the side, thinking: Kouros, this guy used to be the scout captain of Walrus Mythri. At that time, I led a thousand elf cavalry to surprise the [-] army of Walrus Mythri, and beat Walrus Looking for teeth all over the place, I don't know how I died.At that time, among the entire Walrus Legion, he was the only one who could tell the exact number of our army and roughly tell my tactical intentions, which can be said to be a talent.Coupled with his outstanding performance several times later, he can be called a talent.Moreover, this guy is low-key and down-to-earth, and has a high emotional intelligence. Compared with Hait, he is more likely to be able to accomplish things.
The several corps of the Northern Expedition Army are logically divided according to their functions.For example, the cavalry regiment is in charge of cavalry charge, and the wind travel regiment is in charge of logistics, etc., but in fact, these regiments have always had some unclear functions.Hite's Eagle Eye Regiment is not only responsible for reconnaissance, but also serves as long-range fire support because there are many archers in it.Leoric planned to split the Hawkeye Regiment's reconnaissance function and long-range firepower function into two regiments. If Kouros could stand the test, he could let Kouros lead a reconnaissance group alone in the future.
So, Leoric turned his eyes and said to him; "Well, I won't let you do the plate thing, and find someone else later, but I have another task for you."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Didn't we kill a mercenary captain during the battle in Haiyan City before? Before he died, he said that he had a treasure house with many armors, weapons, and magic items in it. I order you to investigate For this matter, if you can find this treasure house, you will transport the materials inside to the local warehouse, and fill them back into General Akkad’s Zhennan Army. How about it? Can it be done?”
"Yes!" Kouros immediately stood at attention and saluted.
"In addition, if there are other valuable clues along the way, you should also pay attention." Leoric was referring to the matter of the disk key and the golden tree seed, both of which Kouros knew.
"Yes, Marshal!"
"Okay, you go and get ready."
Then Kouros left the room, leaving only Leoric and Head Hite in the room. Hayt looked at Kouros' back and said, "Marshal, what about my mission?"
Leoric glanced at him and said, "Aren't you unwilling to do it? Recently, you have to train the troops, mainly to train shooting skills. Now I need a group of archers with excellent skills."
"Then is there any battle to fight recently?" He asked anxiously.
Leoric stared at him and remained silent until Hayter felt guilty and offered to apologize to Leoric. "I'm sorry, Marshal, I shouldn't have done this."
Leoric nodded and said to him, "It's a good thing not to fight, Haight. The mission of a soldier is to defend the country, not bloodthirsty killing."
Heit nodded silently, and it was obvious that he was a little unhappy.Leoric knew that this guy wanted to make meritorious service. Height had a good relationship with Growin before, and the two were equally skilled in martial arts and command. It is definitely unbalanced in your heart to be in the top spot, so you have to find trouble for nothing, and look for opportunities to make meritorious deeds for yourself.
Desire for honor is not a bad thing, but the desire for vanity makes people stupid.Hite's ability is good, but he is impetuous and needs some practice.Leoric pondered for a while, and said, "Hite, would you like to go to Southern Border for some experience?"
Hearing this, Hait's face darkened immediately, and he said, "Marshal, did I make a mistake? Why did you send me to southern Xinjiang!"
Southern Border refers to a piece of tropical rainforest in the southernmost part of the swamp, where bandits, monsters, and despicable races are infested.Usually exiled prisoners will throw people there.Clearly, Haite couldn't get the honor he wanted there.
Leoric said: "Firstly, General Akkad told me the other day that some despicable races in the south are about to move, and there is a shortage of people there; secondly, your mind is full of fame and fame, so I can't send one People who are full of vanity go to command the battle, you need to learn to endure loneliness in order to become an excellent fighter."
"I'm already very good!" Haidt said loudly.This guy is the youngest of the generals of the Northern Expedition. He is 29 years old this year, and he still has a youthful vigor.
Leoric asked him, "Where do you think you deserve to be 'excellent'?"
"I..." Heite gritted his teeth and said, "I am the number one sharpshooter of the Northern Expedition!"
This is not wrong. As the head of the Hawkeye regiment, Hite has exquisite shooting skills. With this skill, he has shot and killed many powerful enemies, and his subordinates are extremely convinced of him.
Leoric smiled and said, "You are not the number one marksman of the Northern Expedition."
Heite widened his eyes in shock and said, "It's not me? Who is that!"
"It's me," Leoric said.
"Commander?"
Before Hite recovered his senses, Leoric grabbed his arm and said, "Come to the shooting range, I want you to know how small you are."
To deal with this kind of arrogant guy, you need to give him a good boost to let him know that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky.
The two came to the shooting range, each took a standard longbow and ten arrows.Leoric pointed to the target a hundred paces away, and said, "You come first."
Haight looked at Leoric suspiciously, and thought: Although King Leoric has great arm strength and can use a big bow that I can't pull, but it is well known that he is extremely poor in aim, and he wins by relying on strength and rapid fire. .How can he beat me at the target?
Hite intends to show off his shooting skills in front of Leoric. He unites body and mind, concentrates, and shows his best state.He shot an arrow first, and the arrow "Dang!" pierced the nine rings, only half a finger away from the red heart; Haiti nodded, and shot the next nine arrows one by one. In order to be accurate, he aimed for a long time each time, far He was more cautious than usual in training, and just like that, he took ten shots, seven hearts, and the remaining three shots were also very close.No one in the entire Northern Expedition had achieved this kind of achievement several times, and the surrounding soldiers applauded.
"Marshal, please." Height said.
"Ah."
Leoric picked up the bow and arrow, without aiming, he just raised his hand and shot! "Dang!" The first arrow hit the red heart, and then Leoric did not hesitate, shooting continuously like a machine gun, and every arrow hit the tail feather of the previous arrow!The frightened onlookers exclaimed: "Kalashnikov! Kalashnikov body shield!" In the end, Leoric's ten arrows all hit the heart, and nine of them were shot in half by the arrows behind him. There is an arrow stuck in the target, and nine broken arrows under the target.
Seeing this scene, Heit's face turned blue, and he began to talk to himself as if his three views had collapsed.At this moment, Leoric patted him on the shoulder and said, "I didn't lie to you, did I?"
Hait looked at him in horror and said, "Marshal, you... your archery skills were not so good three months ago, how did you improve so fast?"
Leoric thought to himself: Because the Black Water Monster gave me three tickets, I chose archery for the first ticket, and bid farewell to human body strokes.
"Because I studied archery diligently when you couldn't see it." Leoric said.This is not a lie. No one can see that he is learning swordsmanship in the library of truth.
Haight was greatly shocked at this time, thinking: Leoric, he is a marshal and a king, he has to fight wars and govern, and he has to sleep with a group of beautiful wives at night!With such a busy life, how could he find time to learn archery and make up for his shortcomings?What diligence and greatness this is!
Hite was the leading archer of the Northern Expedition Army. He knew how difficult Leoric's arrows were.At this moment, the arrogance in Hayter's heart completely faded away, and his dignity was greatly affected.
Leoric said, "How about it, do you still think you're good?"
Heite had a bitter face, but he still said stubbornly: "You are a genius, no one else can compare." That means, I can't compare to you, and it's not ashamed, because you are a poor comparison.
But Leoric said: "I am a genius, so the enemy has no geniuses? If the probability of a genius is one in ten thousand, then the population of the barbarians is dozens of times that of mine, and there must be more geniuses, right? Hite , you may meet what you call a "genius" on the battlefield in the future, and then you have to tell him "Oh, you are a genius! So I am not ashamed to compare you to you", and then that genius will spare you because of it life?"
Hatt was speechless.
Leoric said to him: "So you should put away your arrogance and impetuosity, and hone your skills, Height, I will teach you all my archery skills, and you have to follow General Akkad Learn how to smart troops."
Hearing this, Heite was taken aback for a moment, and said, "You want to teach me archery? You want Akkad to teach me too? Aren't you going to punish me?"
Leoric smiled and said, "I chose you not to punish you, but to reward you, because you have the most potential in the entire Northern Expedition—you are the youngest commander, aren't you? Go ahead, I wait for the day when you grow up."
"Marshal Leoric, I will never disappoint your expectations!" Hite was moved on the spot and knelt down to salute.
On the same day, Heite packed his luggage and left happily.Leoric gave him his condensed manuscript of "The Marksman", asking him to study hard.After Hite left, Leoric temporarily handed over the Eagle Eye Corps to Shia's management, and clearly divided the functions of the Corps, with one part being an archer and the other being responsible for scouting.
In fact, not only Haight's Hawkeye regiment, but also all regiments of the Northern Expedition had some problems and some room for improvement.If there is no war in the future, Leoric will perform a major operation on each legion, so as to enhance the combat power of the entire army-so barbarians, don't make trouble!I want to mine, I want to explode farmers, I want to cut wood and level up, don't bother me!
However, just as Leoric was thinking this way, he received a letter from the barbarians.
When he first saw this letter, Leoric felt a little bit in his heart, and thought to himself: Damn, it's only been two days since we've been safe, and now we're fighting again?Let me see which short-sighted little Bee Jae is this time...
Thinking of this, Lao Li opened the envelope, glanced at it and frowned.
"It turned out to be a marriage letter?"
Leoric suddenly remembered something. During the battle in the swamp earlier, some queen of the Tukalu clan sent a letter, saying that King Leoric was so powerful that he killed the Crow King!You are the new barbarian king, we want to make peace with you in exchange for peace.Leoric was busy fighting the war, so he put the matter on hold and then forgot about it.Now that the other party is bringing up the old matter again, it is estimated that something happened over there.
Earlier, as soon as this princess was mentioned, Romila felt like an enemy, and said that the barbarian princess was a vixen.From this point of view, the princess should be very beautiful - Leoric has heard a saying: when a woman praises a woman for being beautiful, it is not really a compliment, but mostly a compliment; Goods", then the other party is probably very beautiful, and the kind that is so beautiful that it can threaten the survival of other people of the same kind.
Undoubtedly, in terms of appearance alone, the Elven Queen is the most beautiful of Leoric's four harems, and this barbarian princess can be called a "vixen" by her, how good-looking is that?Leoric was curious, very curious indeed!After all, Romila's face, even from a mathematical point of view, is almost impeccable. What woman could be more beautiful than her?
Thinking of this, Leoric was full of curiosity about this "political marriage" - let's put aside whether to get married or not, I have to see how good-looking this "vixen" that makes the elf queen gnash her teeth!
