This was quite effective in providing disaster relief to the Northlands elves. From a certain standpoint, disaster relief was also the best platform for military strength and organization.
Unknowingly, the Donglan Principality had already displayed sufficient strength. The Aurora Knight that could fly freely amidst hailstones, the Borealis that could ignore tornadoes, the gigantic engineering machines that could clean up rubble, and the incredibly adaptable Four Elemental Swordcasters were all the best examples of the Donglan Principality's strength. They also added to the Donglan Principality's strength to become the future leader of the Mist Alliance.
The arrival of another group of reinforcements was something that nobody expected. Their arrival greatly increased the speed of the rescue operation. However, there was a small problem. These reinforcements were residents of the Underground, the most evil existences the Holy Church had ever heard of.
In the previous battle, Anne Galen had established a certain level of friendship with Suana. This time, when she received a request for reinforcements, she unhesitatingly organized her elite forces.
Since the Dark Elves were still going berserk and the Underground World wanted to control them, the Underground Lords were unable to send out their main forces. However, with their frighteningly abundant resources, it was already quite impressive that they only sent out their elite forces.
Numerous Gold and Legend ranked individuals joined the rescue operation. Not only did this greatly increase the speed of the rescue operation, it also made the other countries in the Northlands fearful of the Underground's strength.
The most eye-catching group, which could be said to be the cornerstone of the rescue operation, was a group of Divine Knights. They were the Dark Elves!
That's right, in the entire world, only Sulfur Mountain City had such a group of Dark Elf Knights. The Town Security team was sent here to carry out the rescue operation. They were already skilled at guarding cities to begin with, and they had plenty of experience in dealing with all sorts of "dangers". Carrying out search and rescue missions in ruins was basically their specialty.
The lowest rank among them was the Silver Holy Knight and Law Knight, which made them excellent meat shields to begin with. The heavy enchanted armor that they had just been equipped with was the newest model of the year. As Sulfur Mountain City's only main force, City Lord Anne unhesitatingly gave them the best equipment.
In the past, it was nothing for everyone to have a holy sword. But now that Sulfur Mountain City was rich, they were all equipped with full-body enchanted mithril heavy armor. Together with all sorts of gadgets created by the engineers, these female Knight Galen completely ignored the hailstones and tornadoes.
As city enforcement officers who had been working for many years, demolition and relocation were nothing difficult for them. They were used to dealing with disputes and explosions, so they were also good at dealing with ruin rescue missions.
And when they discovered the injured, they still maintained a considerable number of Holy Knights and were able to treat the injured immediately. In a short period of time, their example spread throughout the entire disaster area. "They're buried too deep and can't find the injured? Three high-level Holy Knights, we'll fill the entire ruins with Holy Light. Let's save our lives first. " "She found the injured person behind the wall. She actually tore the wall open with her bare hands and used her body to block the falling rubble. She brought the injured person out unscathed. She's amazing."
Sulfur Mountain City's Town Security was more than enough to take on the role of the Royal Guards of a mega kingdom on the surface. Their equipment was so extravagant that even Legends would be envious of them, and they could directly enter the role of the main character of an epic story. This elite squadron, armed to the teeth, used a rescue mission to display their strength, and it also caused those who were tempted to rein in their ambitions.
And so, Sulfur Mountain City's' Elf Knight Group 'began to become famous …
"What? Is it the city security force? It must just be a cover. How could such a powerful Knight Group be used for security? "
And the one that left the deepest impression was that the warriors from Sulfur Mountain City suddenly 'clashed' with Donglan's reinforcements. They even cornered the Church of Law's highest-ranking bishop, Xueti, in a corner and viciously beat him up …
Yep, actually, the core of the Donglan reinforcements was a mercenary organization called the 'Gentlemen Alliance'. Just hearing this familiar name caused the Town Security to go berserk.
"You bastards, I left you alone for a while, and you actually increased in numbers. But since we're here, today shall be your doomsday … Xueti, you're a criminal! We've finally caught you again! Sisters, take care of them! "
Alright, there were indeed people in the Gentlemen Alliance who were difficult to accept, such as that clothes-shredding swordsman, but Lord Xueti was being wronged. Actually, he didn't do much. It was just that the archbishop was worried about the suffering refugees, so he voluntarily took off his robe and underwear to protect them from the cold. Meanwhile, he only wore his underwear and insisted on providing disaster relief.
Even though it was rather indecent, the archbishop's muscular body had a masculine beauty to it. Plus, he was forced to do so by the circumstances, so no one thought too much about it. But obviously, these 'mysophobic' elves were completely unable to accept such behavior. They viewed him as a bad habit that was harmful to society, and that was going a little too far.
"Who doesn't know that the dark elves are indecent to begin with? Their thoughts must be too dirty, which is why they caused such a huge misunderstanding. In the eyes of biased people, the entire world is tilted. Their hearts are dirty, and they see everyone as dirty! "
In the end, under the indignation of the soldiers from other countries, Captain Yawen of the Town Security Knight could only personally apologize. Fortunately, Lord Xueti was extremely magnanimous and forgave their rashness on the spot. But obviously, Yawen and the others didn't appreciate it.
"We actually had to lower our heads and apologize to that pervert. This is the worst experience in history. No, this is the second time. The first time was when that pervert actually became our superior — Yawen."
But not even two days later, they committed another crime …
Not only did they chase the legendary hunter Beifeng of the Friends of the Centaurs like a rabbit, they even ganged up on this kind and honest person in front of everyone. In the eyes of the world, if Xueti's incident was pardonable, then the Dracon Beifeng who was ganged up and beaten up the moment they met was too much of an injustice.
"Do we need a reason to beat up Beifeng? Then, let's punish him for the crime of Beifeng. "
Perhaps such a reason would work in Sulfur Mountain City, but in the eyes of other observers, it seemed like they were taking advantage of their position to bully others.
"Did you hear that? Crime of Beifeng, crime of Beifeng? He clearly didn't do anything at all. Isn't this too much? You're going too far! "
"Justice is in the hearts of the people. Perhaps the elven ladies still have some prejudice against me, Beifeng. I can understand that, but perhaps they're under too much pressure. If beating me up can relieve their anger and dispel their prejudice, then come!"
Beifeng.Herault's magnanimity only served to accentuate the Elf Knight's craziness and incomprehensibility.
"Listen to their resolution, they're practically saints! Sulfur Mountain City's Town Security Knight squad. Perhaps they have astonishing strength, but their magnanimity and character … Hmph, they don't even have the slightest bit of Lord Xueti or Beifeng's. Ptui! "
Alright, from a certain standpoint, it was just that the past that happened in Sulfur Mountain City was replaying itself. This time, the Gentlemen Alliance had successfully toyed with the Town Security, albeit at a price.
Of course, if I appeared, I could indeed dispel these misunderstandings, but I would have to explain what happened underground and the truth behind Beifeng and Xueti … After hesitating for a second, I made up my mind. After all, it wasn't the first time that the Town Security had been toyed with by the Gentlemen Alliance. I should leave some face for the Church of Law and the surface Gentlemen Alliance mercenary squad.
But soon, I didn't have the leisure to care about such small matters.
Thanks to the Underground Autarch Anne's "sincere persuasion," Suana also made up her mind to migrate her entire tribe. Their destination was Donglan, a vast but sparsely populated area.
"Sincere persuasion? Anne actually knows how to do this? Isn't she supposed to be a weakling with words? Just like Adam, she only knows how to use her fists to persuade others? What, you're finally enlightened? "
"… Just treat it as if it's true. Suana and the others are just finding a way out of this embarrassing situation. Let's leave some face for them."
Actually, Anne had only casually mentioned "It seems that this place is uninhabitable. Why don't you go to the Underground together with Anne? If you don't want to go, Donglan in Big Brother Roland would be fine as well. "Obviously, such a casual invitation lacked sincerity. And what truly made Suana decide to gamble the fate of her entire tribe on the line wasn't something as abstract as" sincerity. "
"It seems that they feel that this ship is reliable enough, so they intend to board it."
After sitting in this position, even Suana would have to abandon her personal feelings and place the interests of her tribe above all else.
Right now, it was obvious that Suana had offended far too many people. Even if they managed to survive this crisis, it was inevitable that others would hit them while they were down. And since their species had changed, the Elven Gods couldn't count on them anymore. They needed to find a faction to rely on in order to continue surviving.
Although they had long since decided that they needed to rely on another faction, the most important thing was to choose the right target. Otherwise, if the ship sank again, there would truly be no hope for them.
If the other human kingdoms were able to display outstanding strength, perhaps the elves would have made other choices in the end. However, in this war and the disaster relief that followed, East Mist was undeniably the main character. Displaying strength and foundation was one thing, but the countless connections they had with the Underground World, the new Guiltless faction, the Church of Law, and so on were another important bargaining chips.
The most important thing was the Mist Alliance's growing momentum of development and new technology, as well as the Mist Alliance project that was destined to sweep through the entire Northlands in the future. For a politician who prioritized the interests of his own people, it was quite obvious what choice he should make. All that was left was internal wrangling, and he would finally come up with a compromise that everyone could accept.
Actually, Suana herself had put in a great deal of effort to make the elves, who had no sense of time and loved to endlessly argue, come to a decision so quickly. From a certain standpoint, she had her own thoughts as well.
"I'm an elf? Or an undead? Even though I'm clearly dead, I've become the living's support. Perhaps Donglan, where only the Guiltless exist, is the only home I can live in. I'm already tired. As long as my tribe can survive, I, the dead, need to find a place to rest. "
Due to that dishonorable incident that ignited the war, when the conspiracy was exposed, the Council of Elders, which originally had the highest authority in the world, suffered a calamity. The Elven King's accomplices, the elders behind the scenes, were all removed from their pedestals by the angry citizens. It was already quite fortunate that they were able to survive.
Ironically, at the cost of her own death, Suana achieved what her father had dreamed of and fought for half his life — complete control over the Tassel Kingdom. However, it was likely that the Tassel Kingdom would cease to exist in the near future.
After the great migration, even the most optimistic of the Tassel Kingdom's grayblood elves knew that no matter how kind Donglan was, it would be impossible for them to become part of China. If they stayed here for a short period of time, they could still form a relatively independent region. But if they stayed here for a long period of time or even forever, the only choice would be to be scattered and assimilate into the local population. Not only would this be a good thing for Donglan, it would also be a good thing for the grayblood elves.
And when all of this happened, the Tassel Kingdom, which had existed for more than a thousand years, would come to an end. All that would remain would be a new species of the Donglan Principality — the Donglan grayblood elves.
When the long elven migration procession set off, the elves would look back every few steps with expressions of reluctance, as if they were praying for a miracle to suddenly appear, for natural disasters to suddenly disappear, for the dark clouds of war to suddenly disperse … But at this moment, that familiar song rang out once again.
"Da jh da jd, ka su odd as da …" (Distant relatives, where have you gone? We miss you in our homeland …)
The Banshee Princess, who had turned into a specter, sang that familiar traveler's song once again. Back then, when the dark clouds of war covered her homeland, Liusu had hummed this little song in order to find a place for her people to live and reproduce in. She had left her homeland to search for her ideal country by herself.
"Fre de ld, kad …" (Are the ancient trees at home still green? That familiar spring scenery of the lake always reminds me of my childhood. Back then, the sky was so blue …)
Perhaps this was how Liusu had smiled back then as she bid farewell to her family in her homeland.
"My beautiful childhood has passed, and the nightmarish war is right before me. But I, little Liusu who loves singing the most, believe that there's a peaceful and beautiful land on the other side of the mountain. Yep, perhaps there isn't such a place on the other side of the mountain, but there's definitely such a place on the other side of the mountain … "
This feeling was so similar to back then. Even though it was clearly a cheerful song, some of the young elves were already beginning to cry in a low voice, while even more of them were beginning to sing together in a low voice. Finally, the many low voices combined into a chorus that echoed throughout this boundless world.
"My dear Aunt Susan, I miss you again. But, little Liusu, you still can't go home. I still haven't found the home of my dreams, but I believe that the clover will always hide under the hooves of a horse. The home of my dreams is right under my nose. "
Her singing had already started to spread. Liusu, who had never been discouraged, walked briskly in that chaotic world. She crossed a mountain, a sea, and arrived at the other side of the mountain, and there, and there, and there, and there, and finally …
"… I've found it. It's right there. The ancient trees in my dreams are guiding me. I'm about to see the beautiful home of my dreams."
That's right, she had found it. The hesitation and depression in the song had disappeared, and the cheerful song had reached its climax.
“Dda jd ad! Dal dada aty … "(My family, I've finally found the home of my dreams. Our new home is in the north!)
"Our new home is in the north!"
