The elves have always been in a superimposed state of being reliable and unreliable. At this time, they have shown a strong ability to act. The reason is that the safety of residents in the city cannot be threatened.

Using several teams of giant eagle cavalry, airlift a large amount of elven bread from the hidden warehouse in the forest back to the city, carry out organized distribution, and open the city arsenal, and distribute to citizens who volunteer to join the army the weapon armor that even the Oran regular army envies. First.

Weapons with preservation magic can be preserved for a long time, hundreds of years in the right environment is not a big problem, and the number of elves is not large, it is not difficult to prepare enough weapons.

Seeing the militiamen's decent training stance, their posture and energy fluctuations are much better than the kobolds in their own army, Tang Zhao also deeply felt the unfairness of the world - the kobolds belong to a race discriminated against by the God of Creation , human beings belong to the race that God created as his own son, while elves are the race favored by God.

Tall and handsome, with good strength and magic talent, the difference in strength between men and women is negligible, the upper and lower limits are very good, and there are almost no shortcomings except for the fertility rate.

After making preparations for mobilization, the elves started wasting time on all sorts of innocuous issues while doing whatever work they could do. Tang Zhao didn't despise the problems of the parliament, he was the same as most modern people. I don't reject this way of governing, but it's helpless to be so inefficient.

The elves are a race that attaches great importance to the inheritance of bloodlines. It is said that the bloodlines of the elves royal family have been annihilated in the bloody wars before.

The southern elf kingdom has a king in name, but this king is elected by the upper-middle-class nobles. After the term expires, he will abdicate on his own. Since there are a lot of troublesome things to deal with after becoming a king, not only will he not get any benefits, but even He also has to bleed from his own territory to the entire kingdom, so many nobles are unwilling to be kings, which can be regarded as an anecdote in the world.

The elites use various compromises and power tactics to control the country's political situation, maintaining a fragile balance, and no one can overwhelm other factions to achieve stability.

The elves have a long lifespan, and they have enough time to spend so much time. After these days of observation, Tang Zhao has probably figured out the problems of the elves kingdom. Too much internal friction and development is almost stagnant. Although it seems to be crushing for the surrounding countries now advantage, but only temporarily.

Not to mention the distant empires and those magical countries, let’s talk about Oran, the nearest country of knights. Tang Zhao is very clear that Oran’s political situation and development potential are much stronger than those of the elves. Julia is very young now, with the help of magic and medicine. It is not a fantasy to be in power for a hundred years. At that time, the elves may not be able to dominate Oran like they are now.

There are human city-states around. Once the balance of power changes, they will definitely turn to their own race instead of the elves. The strength of the elves will further weaken, and this weakening cannot be contained. In the end, the country may lose the last in the internal struggle vitality.

Tang Zhao didn't intend to choose a side between humans and elves, and things so far away were not something he should consider now. He believed that the people of insight among the elves must have recognized the current problem and tried to change the situation.

It may be that these wars are really opportunities now, but Tang Zhao only needs to show his temporary neutral attitude and show his ability in the war. Others will worry about the extra things.

Sleeping late at night, Tang Zhao was awakened by the siren from the lighthouse. Before the attendants could notify him, he smashed open the window and jumped out of the room, heading towards the port.

The port was full of neatly lined up elf soldiers, and they were boarding the ship in an orderly manner and heading to the sea.

Scanning the environment, his eyes locked on the strongest elf noble commander with the most gorgeous armor, approached him and asked, "What's going on?"

The other party also knew Tang Zhao's recognizable body. He was stunned for a moment and then answered: "Many merchant ships of unknown origin have been found at sea. There are no identification marks on board. We are preparing to send warships to intercept them. It may be the enemy. The troop carrier is trying to sneak up on us in the dark."

"Please ask your people to go to the port area to prepare for the enemy. I will go to see the situation first. By the way, I will notify the city wall guard and reserve team to start gathering here. If something is wrong, the residents near the port will also be evacuated."

Habitually reminding the other party, Tang Zhao didn't care whether the other party would be obedient or not. He jumped into the water alone and swam towards the direction indicated by the port lighthouse.

The distance between the two is 800 meters, and the closer they are to Tang Zhao, the more something feels wrong, because the sea water is gradually turning red, which is not a marine ecological problem such as red tide, but the color of blood, and the sea water seems to be being stained red by blood.

【Missing people, demon believers, blood, near the city.】

Combining these key words, Tang Zhao immediately had a more definite ominous premonition. He hurriedly speeded up and arrived in front of the transport ship before the change occurred.

The blood is the thickest here, and it is constantly oozing out from the eight transport ships. It is certain that this is the source, and we must stop it quickly.

With his claws embedded in the ship's keel, he climbed onto the deck along the ship's skeleton, staring at the two weak mortal guards. If they were intruders, it would be too contemptuous of the elves' military capabilities.

There was a strong smell of blood in the air that couldn't be dispelled. Tang Zhao threw out a row of thorns to nail them to death, and then began to directly dismantle the deck with his claws.

In the cabin below the deck is a scene of blood flowing like a river. In the center is an altar with a magic circle engraved on it, surrounded by corpses. This is the so-called sacrifice.

Two demon believers were cutting their wrists with short knives, trying to end the demon summoning ceremony with their own blood, but Tang Zhao directly used psychic power to knock them unconscious and stopped the ceremony at the last moment.

Stretching out his claws to scratch the magic circle, Tang Zhao slammed straight into the hull of the transport ship, jumped into the sea and swam towards the other ships, intending to continue to do the same to paralyze other magic circles.

The best result is to terminate the ceremony from this step, but he still came one step late. Although the elves also dispatched falcon cavalry to intercept at the same time, they only had time to destroy two transport ships. Tang Zhao just had time to enter the water, and the remaining five ships The magic circles were successfully set up one after another, and the ship glowed with blood, and then a large number of demons tore off the boards and jumped into the sea, swimming towards the elven warship at the port.
