Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 382 - 365 Updated Agreement

There were no walls without holes in the world.

In fact, many residents of the Segis World already knew that players could resurrect.

For example, the Half-Beasts who fled to the Death Desert, the border earls of the Holy Mania Empire, and the Dark Dwarves of Black Rock City who had become familiar with the players...

This time, it was a messenger returning from Black Rock City who told Brin this shocking news for the Underground Dwarves.

As the long-distance Teleportation Array connected Blade City and Black Rock City, the two city-states naturally took the opportunity to sign some commercial agreements, which was how the messenger was dispatched.

And when the envoy from Blade City arrived at Black Rock City, it was only natural that they had deeper exchanges with the local residents, learning the elves’ secret from their mouths.

They could resurrect!

Resurrecting from death was not something incomprehensible in the Segis World, which was filled with extraordinary power.

Of course, for most beings in the Segis World, resurrection was considered the power of the Death God, and the existence that could achieve resurrection was, in a sense, making a deal with the Death God.

Thus, after learning the elves’ secret and considering the oracle of the True God, along with the rumors related to the "True God Eve" brought by the messenger, Brin felt he finally discovered the truth of the matter.

*Understood!*

*Everything became clear!*

*No wonder the elves weren’t afraid of death, it turned out they wouldn’t truly die!*

*The Goddess Eve? Elves who resurrected and had changed characters? And the point-blank oracle for elves?*

*Could it be... just as the rumor brought back by the messenger suggests, this newly born True God was actually a subordinate god of Hela Crown, or was simply an incarnation of Hela Crown?*

Brin’s mind linked to many thoughts...

At this moment, he finally understood, what was this talk of an eighty-thousand Elf Army, and what was this talk of sixty thousand fallen elves, when it was clearly just the same group of elves returning over and over!

Of course, they were indeed seriously killing the enemy.

They were duped.

The equipment and gold pounds, all of it was a scam!

It was likely that the real number of these elves was around fifteen thousand at the peak of their participation in the battle!

Of course, that number was still terrifying.

But considering the capabilities of the Death God, plus the abilities associated with the Life and Natural God Position, Brin felt he could vaguely understand...

If it was Hela Crown, after mastering Life and Nature, achieving this was indeed possible!

After understanding this matter, Brin quickly thought of the reward for the elves.

*The millions of gold pounds already paid were written off.*

What had been given out would likely be hard to retrieve, but as for the remaining thirteen thousand sets of equipment... how many of those were duplicates!

Brin’s first thought was to restrict the elves’ receipt of equipment, requiring their personal presence! fгeewebnovёl.com

*Joking, what’s it like for one person to collect multiple sets of equipment?*

Blade City might be wealthy, but even it couldn’t sustain such squandering!

A few more times of this, and they would truly go bankrupt!

However, after informing Dark Dwarf Huo Xu of the matter and discussing it with him, they changed their minds.

There were two reasons.

One reason was that, although there was suspicion of being duped this time, the agreement was made mutually, and even if they were duped, Blade City itself was uninformed about the intelligence.

And since the agreement was already set, with the elven side having overall strong capabilities, Blade City really didn’t have the basis to breach the contract.

The other reason was that after witnessing the elves’ persistence with the equipment, Brin suspected that reneging might cause great anger among them and even worsen the originally decent relationship between the two sides.

Brin had understood that the war was not over; Blade City would likely still need the elves’ support, and in such a case, friendly relations with them were best.

*And besides, could they refuse?*

At present, other than closing the long-distance Teleportation Array, the elven side had every capability to use force to "collect debts"...

*Thinking of more than ten thousand undead elves rampaging through the city terrified Brin.*

*As long as the Teleportation Array was defended, these fellows were invincible!*

Moreover, without the elves as reinforcements, given Blade City’s current strength, it likely still wouldn’t be able to resist the still-powerful Dark Alliance army.

After understanding all this, the former and current chiefs quickly reached a consensus on the attitude towards the elves.

Firstly, the promises already made shouldn’t be changed.

It was only a few years of fiscal revenue; they should consider it as spending money to avoid disaster and to improve relations between the two sides.

Huo Xu still had a great interest in the elves, especially in the various businesses they conducted in Black Rock City; he also wanted to establish commercial cooperation with them in the future.

Secondly, it was necessary to dispatch a messenger promptly to update the agreement with the elven side in an official capacity.

The gist was that they knew the elves could resurrect, and the effects of the agreements previously made would be honored, but from then on, new elves participating in the war could only receive one piece of equipment until the war was completely over!

Of course, the two didn’t actually expect any new elves to join.

In their view, the current number of elves was terrifying enough and sufficient.

The other purpose of updating the agreement was to tie the elves who had already participated in the war firmly to Blade City’s chariot!

Having received the equipment, they had a responsibility to assist Blade City in completely overcoming the war or even achieving final victory, rather than just fighting one battle and being done.

The new agreement also required a messenger to sign.

Considering the elves’ uniqueness and to express Blade City’s importance, Brin decided to go in person this time, while Huo Xu stayed to guard the city.

Facilitated by Black Rock City, the elven side quickly responded, also sending representatives—Natural Saintess Alice and an elf named Cuckoo Bird.

The two sides updated the new agreement content in Black Rock City.

To Brin’s surprise, the elven side agreed quite readily; even... he saw guilt on the face of Natural Saintess Alice.

At that moment, Brin finally found some of the legendary kind qualities of elves in this Natural Saintess.

Of course, he didn’t know that even if after this campaign Blade City no longer provided equipment to the elves, players who had tasted the sweetness of war would still rush to participate at the first opportunity... and this was the true reason for Alice’s guilt, because she knew the players too well.

Experience, contribution, and even the spoils from killing enemies, all held great attraction for them.

However, the elven side also put forth a requirement that the elves would not be stationed permanently in Blade City, but would support again when a crisis emerged there.

Brin agreed to this as well.

At this stage, with the Dark Alliance’s massive power and high-end combat force crushing the Silent Alliance, they could only huddle in the city for defense, not possibly taking the initiative to attack.

And just as the agreement were updated and Brin was preparing to leave Black Rock City, he encountered an unexpectedly familiar figure.

There will be another update later, to make up for what was owed yesterday.
