Although he was in the void, his feet were very solid.
A very strange word flashed in my mind.
air wall.
Obviously, this is not a normal starry sky, but an artificial space.
He vaguely guessed the other party's identity.
Soon, a man wearing a star robe walked out of the void and stood in front of him.
It was Egilina's teacher, Stevenson Carl Star.
"Mr. Roland, this is the first time we meet, please allow me to introduce myself. I am Stevenson Carl Star, the chief star warlock of the Star Gazing Club."
"I have heard Mr. Stevenson's name mentioned by Egilina. I have admired you for a long time. It is my honor to meet you in this form today."
Roland responded very politely.
If you are obedient and don't need money, why should you be embarrassed in front of the elders?
Looking around, Roland asked with a smile: "Is what I just saw a dream controlled by you?"
"No, controlling dreams is the power of the Dark Apostle. I cannot control dreams. I am just showing you the deduction results of the World Tree battle."
Roland's face changed slightly, then he squeezed out a smile and said calmly: "Mr. Stevenson, you may have some misunderstandings about me. There are many warriors who know they are losing but still fight to the end, but I am definitely not included."
"I will run away if the situation is not right. I will run away without hesitation."
Stevenson did not refute Roland's words, but just smiled.
"Melanice will not leave, she will live and die with the World Tree. Famas will not leave, and neither will Ruit. Granny will stay to break up your marriage. Can you still leave?"
Roland was silent for about three seconds, spread his hands, and said without any harsh words, "You win."
Of course he could insist that he would escape, but that would be unreasonable.
Seeing that Roland was so knowledgeable, Stevenson didn't push him too much. He asked softly:
"How long can the World Tree remain hidden?"
"Half a year."
Stevenson frowned slightly and murmured: "The World Tree is only a few dozen meters tall now. It will grow to at least several thousand meters in height when it matures. Does it only take half a year?"
"Yes, the growth of World Tree requires a lot of resources. These resources are provided by humans. In the fifth era, its human friends were the elves, and now they are our Druid sect."
The World Tree cannot move freely before it matures, but it requires a lot of resources, far exceeding the upper limit of the soil's carrying capacity.
Without the help of human friends (humans, elves and other ethnic groups are all members of the human race), the World Tree would not be able to fully develop and would not be much better than the natural ancient tree.
Humans and World Tree have a symbiotic relationship.
Human partners obtained enough fertilizer and other nutrients to add to the soil for the World Tree to grow.
After the World Tree enters its mature stage, its material needs gradually decrease, and its absorption and output will maintain a balance. It will donate more than half of the converted energy to its human partners.
This special symbiotic relationship also determines that the World Tree cannot be hidden.
Wherever the World Tree exists, no matter how fertile it was before, it will be drained after the World Tree sprouts.
A mere piece of wheat cannot compete with the all-pervasive World Tree for nutrition.
Secondly, the World Tree needs to replenish a large amount of fertilizers rich in various elements. As long as the intelligence agency does not lie around waiting to die, there will definitely be clues.
The World Tree cannot be hidden at all, and it consumes a huge amount of resources. Even if it is not a super power, it cannot support it at all, and even if it can barely support it, it cannot protect it.
The Druid Sect has the ability to support the World Tree, but there is more than one superpower like the Druid Sect.
It is easier to destroy than to build.
Destroying the World Tree is much easier than cultivating the World Tree.
Stevenson could use a special method to summon Roland to a special space. At least he came with good intentions. Roland didn't care about the old guy's separation from the past, but he clearly remembered his help.
Looking into Roland's eyes, Stevenson knew that he knew everything, so he stopped pretending and said directly:
"Roland, the Star Gazing Club is different from other organizations. Our purpose is to study the mysteries of the universe. We move among the major forces. We must maintain our independence while not easily offending any force. I hope you can understand."
"I completely understand. Speaking of which, I haven't had the chance to thank you in person for the Stargazing Club's generous investment."
Roland's smile was impeccable, showing both the elegance of an aristocrat and the sunshine of a young man.
Yet Stevenson felt distinctly alienated.
He originally planned to drag Roland directly into the stargazing party, which was also Egilina's request.
But after Roland offended the Brotherhood and the Holy Temple of Light at the same time, he chose to wait and see.
When your investment goals are about to be shattered, it makes perfect sense to choose to wait and see.
While waiting and watching, the warm goodwill turned into a purely commercial behavior.
Since it is a business transaction, let’s talk about business.
Roland will repay the Star Gazing Club's investment in the form of a commercial investment.
Stevenson had no reason to blame Rowland.Business investment, it’s your choice, what’s there to say?
Stevenson suddenly had an illusion when he looked at Roland standing under the starry sky, empty but as steady as his feet on the ground.
Maybe it was a better choice to go all out to support Roland at that time?
Fortunately, he still had a backup plan.
He didn't give his full support, but Egilina did.
Chapter 011 Who is the enemy?
Could Egilina represent the Stargazing Club?
Yes, because she is one of the twelve stars of the Star Observation Association, and she can make some ordinary decisions on behalf of the Star Observation Association.
No, because she is the last member of the Twelve Stars, and she has no right to make decisions alone on important matters.
For the same investment, Stevenson's investment was the investment of the Star Gazing Club, while Egilina's investment was a personal act.
Of course, Roland will respond with huge profits from the stargazing club's commercial investment.
Roland will do his best to repay Egilina's investment.
This is the difference.
Stevenson and Roland looked at each other in silence for a long time.
In the end, it was the old fox who spoke first. He smiled pleasantly and quietly changed the subject.
"Roland, I have deduced it three times, and the endings are similar. The tree-preserving faction suffered heavy losses in the final battle but failed to save the World Tree. You survived by luck, but all your companions died in the battle."
"Thanks for the warning."
Roland's expression did not change at all, as if the unlucky person Stevenson was talking about was not him.
He asked with great interest: "Can I know who the enemy is?"
Stevenson was stunned.
This guy doesn't want to think about how to escape a certain death situation, but he cares about who is his enemy. I really don't know what his heart is made of.
Seeing that Stevenson didn't speak for a long time, Roland teased half-jokingly: "Mr. Stevenson, do you have something to hide?"
"The results of the deduction may not be completely accurate, and may change once observed. Since you want to know, let's make a reference."
Stevenson said in a deep voice:
"First of all, there are forest trolls. They are cousins of the elves, and their relationship with the elves is similar to that of barbarians and us. They once believed in the goddess of nature, but they were not favored by the goddess. They now hate all believers of the goddess of nature. "
From love to hate, right? It's reasonable.
"There is also the Frost Troll tribe and the Desert Troll tribe. They hate the forest and believe that green vegetation hinders their living space and will never allow the World Tree to live. They don't have the guts to enter the green sea and cause destruction, but they have the guts to cause trouble for you. It’s huge.”
"There are also satyrs, buffalo men, donkey-headed men, centaurs and other groups among the barbarian orcs. They prefer grasslands to forests, so they will send some troops to participate in the war. However, the barbarian orcs tend to be carnivorous werewolves. , bear people, leopard people and other groups will not participate in the operation."
Roland smiled and said: "That's good. The meat-eating orcs are very powerful in combat, but these vegetarian ones are far behind."
Stevenson almost fell out of the stars.
You can still comfort yourself like this. Brat, why don't you find a Centaur chief to challenge you?
He continued: "In addition, there is a super powerful race, the demon race."
"High-level humans bully low-level humans?" Roland frowned.
"That's not entirely true. They are here for the elves and druids. They have nothing to do with you. Moreover, the high-level human race will soon split into the demon clan and the heavenly clan. It is the demon clan who will attack you."
"There are also the black gold and white water conglomerates of the goblin tribe. Because you were in contact with Groggs, you even sent the classics to this dwarf. It's okay for you to do business with the dwarf, but sharing knowledge violates the taboo of the goblins."
"Goblins are good at making various logging tools and are extremely destructive to the forest. Moreover, their numbers are staggering and they can easily recruit an army of millions of goblins. Their strength cannot be underestimated."
Roland calculated the enemy's strength and began to plan an escape route.Good guy, so many enemies?
We can hold an international expo.
He teased half-jokingly: "What on earth have I done that is so outrageous that everyone wants my life? What about us within the human race? What is the attitude of the three major empires and the three major religious organizations?"
Seeing Roland's calm attitude, Stevenson thought he was born fearless and brave, but he didn't know that Roland was just a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water.
He pondered for a moment and said softly: "Of course the human race is not monolithic. They will not go into battle personally, but some people secretly invest more in your enemies and help them raise war supplies."
"Most importantly, they yield military rights of way and acquiesce to your enemies' passage."
This is the deadliest.
If the lords of the human race united as one and did not give military access rights, these alien races would never be able to approach the World Tree.
It's a pity that the only thing that humans are very united about is disunity.
The biggest natural enemy of mankind is mankind. This is the history of mankind.
Strictly speaking, almost all the races participating in this war are members of the broad human species, but they do not recognize the term human beings very much.
Just allowing intelligent races other than humans to recognize themselves as humans is beyond the ability of gods, let alone uniting them.
Stevenson nodded and said in a deep voice: "The three deduction processes are different, you can only use them as a reference."
"Fighting alongside you is Agnes of the Druid sect and the Temple of Light."
After a pause, he continued: "The Dark God's Palace also participated, but only once. In addition, there is also Egilina from the Star Gazing Club."
Roland savored Stevenson's words carefully.
Yanis from the Temple of Light?
Agnes cannot represent the Holy Temple of Light, she can only represent herself.
To put it simply, the Holy Court of Light did not support Roland. This was Yanis's personal behavior.
Roland's heart trembled when he thought of Yanis dying in his arms in the secret realm of the deduction just now.
"Was Agnes here all three times?"
"It's all there."
Very good, he remembered this love clearly.
"The same goes for Egilina?"
"Yes."
Egilina is also a star warlock. If Stevenson can deduce it, so can she. How could she not know how dangerous Roland is?
But she still chose to stay, and this affection has long transcended the boundaries between investors and investees.
Seeing that Stevenson was silent, Roland asked in surprise: "Did you miss anyone, the elves?"
"There are no elves, only Melanies. She signed a contract with you, and of course she will fight to the end, so I didn't say it alone."
"What about the rest?"
"No more." Stevenson faced Roland's gaze calmly, with a hint of sadness in his voice.
In the core territory of the human race, the human lord who owns the World Tree is besieged by countless alien races, but not many of his fellow human race members lend a helping hand. It is simply a joke to tell it.
He felt ashamed.
The three major empires and major international organizations will declare war on foreign races, but they will only declare war and will not actually send troops.
