Heart of Empire Chapter 56: Challenges and benefits

After sacrificing the heads of hundreds of faceless men and almost the same number of hairless hyenas, the so-called godsend in exchange is definitely worth the money.

If the Jinxiangye can be taken over completely, it will undoubtedly be a happy event for Dane.

The arrival of the Golden Fragrant Leaf almost solved the urgent problems he was facing in many ways. First of all, there are a lot of materials on board, not only including gold coins, but more importantly, other resources that can be identified by the system as needed for building buildings or recruiting troops, such as gems and crystals. The number is not very large, but at least it can solve some of Dane's current needs. For example, after harvesting these materials, he can completely build the moon well that has been delayed for a long time.

In addition to materials, that is population. There are more than two hundred elves brought by the Jinxiangye. If these elves were integrated into Auriel City, then Auriel City would immediately transform from a ruined place with only a few dozen people, not even a village, into a truly valuable territory.

Especially the rangers on the ship. Dane roughly counted them. There were about sixty rangers led by Patience, almost the size of a squadron. And judging from their appearance, they are all capable fighters. At least, the mercenaries under him are no match for these rangers. The only ones who can fight these rangers are the sword dancers. But it's a pity that there are only less than forty sword dancers in his hands, and two teams are still receiving training from Lancelot in the War Garden, and they haven't left the army yet.

In other words, once a conflict breaks out between the two sides, these elf rangers may cause greater losses to Dane's territory than those faceless men.

Of course, these elves are not enemies, and they are a group of people who followed the so-called divine revelation and came to join him. The leaders of the two elves, Cecilia and Patience, also expressed their great respect to him. . But he still vigilantly went through these things in his heart, and there was only one reason: these elves were a bit strong, but if they had any second thoughts, Dane had almost no way to suppress them well.

This is Dane's worry, but there is no bad look on his face. There is no other reason. Although there are risks, the benefits are large enough. If he can really digest the entire fleet, from population to wealth, then the strength of his subordinates will be greatly improved in an instant.

Challenges and benefits go hand in hand.

With a little worry secretly in his heart, Dane still showed enthusiasm. Many of the people gathered around have already dispersed. The people who were originally guarding the pier were looking forward to a colorful miracle, but when they saw that it was just an elf ship, they felt more or less confused. There were some disappointments. At this time, the only ones left near the pier were some elves from Aurelia.

The elves still welcome the arrival of their compatriots. On Comilla Island, there were nearly 200 mercenaries and 200 new slave girls, but the number of elves was always small. Originally, the elves could only welcome a small number of compatriots who were guided from other worlds from the tower of the divine guidance tree every week. How could there be a chance to see a whole boat of elves at once?

Therefore, these elves who came to Aurinadu first were very enthusiastic about the fellow elves who had fled. Although there were not many people, each of them found a few compatriots, or helped carry luggage, or help take care of the children. After a while, the two sides got along very well.

Dane and Aslore walked beside Cecilia and Patience, leading them towards Aurinadu while chatting casually.

Cecilia's attitude in front of Dane was quite respectful, which even made Dane feel a little uncomfortable. During the conversation between the two, Cecilia had almost no reservations about why they left Nancy's court, how many hardships they experienced on the road, and how they received the divine revelation to come to Comilla Island. , all said out.

On one side, Patience was a little anxious. Although there was divine revelation in front of her, and there was an authentic Xiluo priest like Eslore next to Dane, who happened to be the owner of Comilla Island, she should be able to do so. There is no doubt that the identity of the envoy mentioned in the revelation is confirmed.

However, even so, Patience always had some worries in her heart. After all, Dane was just a stranger to her—a human being! It is difficult for her to give her trust unreservedly like Cecilia, especially when there are more than two hundred survivors on her body as a burden, she dare not believe it easily A stranger is gone.

Seeing that Cecilia sold everything on the Jinxiangye so honestly, Patience was really worried. She gave Cecilia several winks in a row, and even took advantage of Dane and Asrael's inattention, and gently tugged at the sleeve of the high priest, just to make her pay attention ~IndoMTL.com~ However, Cecilia didn't know whether she really didn't understand or didn't care, so she didn't talk to her at all.

Patience is getting a little depressed now, she can't really stop Cecilia from talking in person, can she? Especially when they had just set foot on the island and were counting on Dane to give them shelter, that was too unreasonable. So, she could only follow behind everyone sullenly, and continued walking with a little resentment.

However, it didn't take long for this resentment in Patience's heart to forget most of it: she saw Aurelia.

To be honest, Patience has always expressed doubts about what the revelation said, that on this barren island, there will really be a species like the tree of life, which is like a miracle of the creator. However, when she walked on a barren land for a while, a small forest suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and in the middle of the forest, a towering giant tree stood in it, she couldn't help it. I don't believe it.

As long as you are an elf, you will not admit your mistake. This is indeed a genuine tree of life!

More than two hundred elves wept with joy, and after landing on Comilla Island, they bowed down for the second time. The first time it was for Dane, it was because of Cecilia's leadership; this time for Aurinato, there was no one to take the lead, it was all from the elves' heartfelt worship of the tree of life . Even Patience, who has always been preoccupied and not very religious, knelt on the ground and shed tears as if she saw her long-lost mother.

Where there is a tree of life is the destination of elves.
