General Yulin asked calmly: "Lord Roland, what will be our future identity? Will we be the evergreen vassals of the ancient empire, the resurgent subjects of the new empire, the fence of the Luojia Kingdom, or the subjects of the Gracia family?"

"I need clear answers."

This question hits home. If you respond with nonsense like "We are all children of the World Tree", General Habayashi will definitely be disappointed.

Roland stood up, looked around the audience, and replied calmly:

"New humans."

Raising his hand to stop General Yulin's questioning, Roland said in an unarguable tone: "No matter humans, elves, demons, demi-humans and other intelligent races, they will all be members of the new human race in the future."

"These races used to have another name in ancient times, the beast race."

General Yulin was silent.

Indeed, there was no subdivision between humans and elves in the First Era. At that time, everyone fought against the dragons as beasts.

He has read the classics and knows these basic concepts.

But General Habayashi was not convinced.Although Roland gave a broad concept, he needed specific answers.

"In the blueprint you drew, who is the leader and who is the subordinate? Are you integrating into the new humanity as a human or an elf?"

Roland drew the most delicious pie, but General Yulin's eyes were as bright as fire and he would not give in.

The two people's eyes met in the air, creating a spark.

The corner of Roland's mouth raised slightly, and he said calmly: "Whoever has talent will be the leader. New humans abandon the old concept of race and will not use birth to determine everything. The concept of race is just a symbol of nostalgia for past glory, not a basis for status. "

"All of you here are elites of the upper elf, and of course you have a stage to display your talents."

"General Habayashi, you have a sharp mind, rich combat experience, and outstanding commanding ability. After I establish a new country, I will appoint you as the third general, after Agnis and Sandra."

General Yulin's expression suddenly changed.

The general is the pinnacle of military positions. He has heard of the reputation of General Sandra for a long time. Agnes is Roland's absolute confidant. He did not expect to be ranked third after them, and he couldn't believe it.

Roland simply took out a list and waved his hand, and the names on the list appeared directly in the air.

"This is the official position I propose based on your strengths. You can take a look first. If you have different ideas, you can tell me directly. We are all a family and everything is easy to discuss."

In this list, there are not many official positions of real power granted by Roland.

Except for Yulin who was awarded the title of Grand General and Yuehua who was appointed as the Grand Priest of Gracia, most of the other positions were empty.

After all, although these elves have strong personal combat capabilities, their political skills are average.

The selection of General Yulin and Priest Yuehua was also the result of choosing the taller one among the shorter ones.

Fortunately, they are friendly to humans and can accept the existence of half-elves, so it is not a bad idea to appoint them.

In Roland's eyes, other elves are talkative people who are good at singing and dancing.

They can't accept it if they are given a low position, and they don't have the ability to give them real power.

Fortunately, Melanith has customized a new official position system for them, ranger.

Rangers are simply and roughly divided into five grades, ranging from first to fifth. They have generous salaries and high levels, but they have no actual power.

The only additional benefit of this official position is the power to get close to the World Tree and feel its breath.

You can't go on a forest patrol without going to see the World Tree.

Although Roland felt that the ranger was a little outrageous, he still believed in Melanies' judgment.

After all, she understands elves better than he does.

What he didn't expect was that this false position would actually be taken over.

"Sir Roland, I have profound knowledge of botany and have accumulated more than 30 botanical works. I am fully qualified to serve as a first-class ranger. You only gave me a third-class ranger. You are clearly looking down on me. I seriously protest! "

"Mr. Thor, you are almost [-] years old this year. It is better to leave the forest patrol work to us young people. Although I do not have so many botanical works, I have personally planted tens of thousands of trees and have rich practical experience. Without There’s no one better suited to be a ranger first class than me!”

......

Seeing the elves arguing in a pot of porridge, Roland was stunned and then understood.

He underestimated the temptation of vanity and the World Tree to the elves.

He was very sure that as long as these elves were given enough respect and vanity, they would stay.

Only by allowing the old guys to be pampered can he break tribal restrictions and incorporate young people into the new system.

He raised his hands and said with a smile: "Everyone, please be quiet. The first-class ranger is temporarily vacant. It's not that I look down on you, nor that I am stingy. I believe that you are all qualified for the new position, but I will definitely not accept my direct appointment of others." .”

"I will provide you with a level playing field. Whoever can be recognized by World Tree will be a first-class ranger."

Seeing Roland's sincere smile, Melanis smiled secretly.

As expected of Roland, he was indeed sincere, but he still encouraged these old guys to work harder.

She knew the gang would accept it.

The ranger system was designed by her personally, and every benefit can accurately hit the pain points of the old guys.

No one knows elves and World Tree better than her.

The main focus is on fishing with a straight hook. If you have the ability, don’t bite.

The upper elves are old and sophisticated, so they don't know this little trick.But they have no choice.

This is their only chance to contact the World Tree, and they must risk everything.

Mere tribal interests are nothing in front of the glory of the World Tree.

The elves nodded and accepted the arrangement.

But they never dreamed that the person digging a hole for them would be the harmless elf princess behind Roland.

The most innocent person is red. Even the simplest elf will change a little if he stays with Roland for a long time.

Chapter 097 Who is whose knight?

The elves made the right choice without too much confusion.

Some elves continued to stay in the temple for a long time, a few smart and capable elves entered the bureaucracy and held important positions, and the other elves basically obtained the title of ranger.

The first class ranger was temporarily vacant, and everyone reached a tacit understanding.

Whoever makes great achievements in defending the World Tree will be a first-class ranger.

This is reasonable.

After reaching a consensus, everyone was happy and went home.

The old guys found a new value in life and at the same time handed over control of the tribe.

Before long, tribal names such as Feisi, Five-Colored Deer, and White Grass will become history, and the elves will have a unified name, New Humanity.

Although they may introduce themselves with "I am the new human XX from the Fez tribe", sooner or later the tribal imprint will disappear.

In the face of reality, tradition and persistence will collapse sooner or later.

Although this is a long process, Roland is patient enough.

After sending away the guests, only Roland and Melanie were left in the room.

Melanie Cat was in Roland's arms and asked softly: "Are you going out again?"

"Well, tomorrow morning I will go to the sanctuary with Agnes to meet with Patriarch Eugene."

"Do you have to go? The sanctuary is their territory. Once they do, you won't even have a chance to escape."

Melanis said worriedly: "I will write to my father and ask him to come for support. After all, he is the only orthodox emperor of the elves, and he will definitely come. The feud between my sister and I will be resolved privately, and public affairs cannot be abandoned for personal reasons. "

"He's here, who does the World Tree belong to?"

Roland asked in his soul.

The last thing in the world that cannot come is the elves from the Evergreen Empire, unless Melanis wants the Evergreen Empire to become a super empire with twin world trees.

Melanith was silent for a long time, sighed softly and stopped talking.

This is politics.

In the face of the struggle for interests, the story of a kind father and a filial son, and brothers and sisters respectfully happens again and again.

There is no family affection under imperial power.

If Melanith wants to return to the Evergreen Empire and inherit the crown, she must perform a feat that is astonishing to the world, a feat that no one can refute.

She has no choice.

If the father intervenes, even if Roland and she contribute the most, the glory will go to the father.

She pressed softly against Roland's chest and said softly: "Let me lie down for a while, it will be fine in a while."

Roland looked down at Melanis' trembling long eyelashes, and simply hugged her and sat on the main seat, using his arms to create a safe haven for her.

As his strength and status increased, many outstanding girls gradually appeared around him.

The mysterious and beautiful Egilina, the sacred and awe-inspiring Yanis, and Sandra and Wind Chime of the Luojia Kingdom.

They have excellent conditions, clear minds and outstanding abilities.

Compared with them, Melanith has no advantages except beauty and simplicity.

She was even a little stupid, and she had trouble sleeping and eating when dealing with internal problems within the clan, and she was sweating profusely.

But Roland still liked her the most.

He had long since fallen in love with her soft eyes, he simply liked her.

Compared with other girls, her political sense is a bit slow, she often panics when things happen, and she always hides behind Roland.

But Roland liked this feeling very much.

The feeling of protecting the girl you love.

Egilina and Yanis are both independent and strong women. They don't need Roland's protection, and they often even protect Roland in return.

If you put aside your personal strength and identity, Melanies is a typical idiot girlfriend who panics before anything happens.

She needed him, so he opened his arms and held her close, simple as that.

The next morning, Roland set out in high spirits.

Yanis was waiting for him in the living room.

This was the first time Agnes spent the night in Roland's castle.

Although it was to set off as early as possible, she always had a weird and subtle feeling.

Melanis held her hand and kept telling her to take good care of Roland outside and go home early. This subtle feeling became even stronger.

She was a little flattered by Meilan's simple kindness, but then she thought it was strange.

Meilan is Roland's fiancée, and she is a member of Roland's family.

She is just Roland's vassal, is she also considered a family member?

She looked up and saw that the Sanctuary appeared in the air, slowly passing over the Allhausen Territory. She quickly used the teleportation rune to summon the teleportation gate.

She was the first to step into the portal and enter the sanctuary.

Stepping into the sacred land, there is actually a strange feeling.

In the past, every time I returned to the Holy Land, it felt like going home. Ever since I showed off my cards to the Patriarch, I felt like I was a guest.

Agniss smiled self-deprecatingly and looked at Roland, who was curious as he just walked out of the portal, and put on a warm smile.

"Roland, this is your first time in the sanctuary. I will help you get familiar with the environment."

"This side is the territory of the Light Temple, and that side is the territory of the Dark Temple. Don't go there if you have nothing to do."

"This main road is the road of light, and over there is the road of darkness."

......

Yanis took Roland forward while playing the role of a tour guide.

Roland looked up at the majestic temple, feeling the atmosphere of the sacred place, with a solemn expression.

It was indeed the place where the goddess once lived, and it fit his stereotype of the temple very well.

sacred and ancient.
