He is striving to maximize profits.

He rarely acted on impulse.

Except for her.

Thinking of this, Melanis watched Roland's eyes gradually soften, and she said quietly: "I understand, this is politics."

"But there are times when you make exceptions. I don't want you to exchange territories, but you agree without thinking. I don't want to trade the World Tree, and you agree. You give me the forest, but you never interfere with what I do. , and even still fighting for my people and the Druids.”

Melanis smiled bitterly, "But I don't even have any clansmen. In the Evergreen Empire, I can't even take my own maids and playmates with me."

Roland unexpectedly activated Melanis' painful memories and didn't know how to respond.

Just as he was thinking about the words of comfort, Melanie's voice became softer and softer, "I used to rely entirely on intuition when speaking and doing things, but I won't do that anymore."

Roland had a vague premonition that she might have really failed in her studies.If Melanis really turned into a cold politician, he would rather she remain a beautiful vase forever.

"Meilan, it's good that you know some things and don't think too much. Just leave these things to me."

"No, I can't let you fight alone, I want to stand with you!"

Melanis's eyes gradually became clear, "The scattered tree elves have returned to the World Tree. They come from different ethnic groups and will have many conflicts with each other. I must stand up and take care of them."

As Melanis, she is indeed the best candidate to command the tree elves.

But Roland really didn't trust her level.

Management capabilities cannot be improved overnight.

These hundreds of thousands of elves, not to mention Melanis, are beyond the control of Roland himself.

He believed that he was an excellent baron and an excellent viscount, no matter how high he was.

It's not that he's incompetent, it's that he doesn't have any experience.

It will be a tragic disaster if just any actor on the street is hired to govern the country.

Although he is about to become the king of the Luojia Kingdom, he does not intend to govern the country personally.The Luojia Kingdom in the future will be almost the same as before. The king is the supreme head of state, and the three giants are responsible for specific affairs.

The difference from before is that the Blood-Drinking Crown recognizes him as its master, and he is no longer a virtual monarch, but a king with real supreme power.

They can take the power he has released; no one can take away the power he does not give.

Such as the power to decide war and peace.

Looking at Melanies with firm eyes, he did not refuse or pour cold water on her, he just smiled and said:

"Well said, you are the person I trust the most. Who do you care about? I will help you find a reliable deputy to help you manage the tribe."

If you just say that you are responsible for beauty and let someone else take the job, Melanies will definitely be sad.

But if he takes a step back and says to help her find a deputy, she can accept it.

Not only humans like to compromise, but so do the elves.

The third minister of the Luojia Kingdom originally did not accept the human being as king, but if they threatened to take away the blood-drinking crown, they felt that it was not impossible for the human being to be the king even though there was no precedent.

Melanis nodded obediently, her crimson eyes burning with blazing flames.

She knew that Roland couldn't trust her ability.

She knew better that Roland was right.

Roland said she was the most beautiful vase.She accepts the compliment of being the most beautiful, but will take off the stigma of the vase.

Chapter 039 The dry well of life

In trading, everyone gets what he wants.

Roland also fell into deep thought. What do the elves of Luojia Kingdom need most?

Is it safe?Although this era is the era of annihilation, the Luojia elves are very confident in their own safety, and they do not feel any security pressure.

If there is, it belongs to the future.

Few people are willing to pay up front for future worries.

What's more, Roland also wants to take away the tree elves, which will directly weaken the strength of the Luojia Kingdom.

No way.

Then we can only change our thinking and take away the Luojia Kingdom as a whole.

But with 6000 years of history here, this is no easy task.

The World Tree is also beneficial to the blood elves, but not as much as the benefits to the tree elves.

What do the blood elves need most?

Roland followed his inner guidance and came to the source of wisdom, Luojia Library.

Books contain endless wisdom, but Roland is not here to read books this time, he is looking for someone.

Compared with books, the baptism of endless years is closer to wisdom.

Roland sat down opposite Huron unceremoniously. Ignoring the old man's frown, he poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.

Seeing Roland's wasteful way of drinking tea, Huron's face became even more bitter.

"Your Majesty is not in a hurry to establish a good relationship with the three important ministers, so he comes to the old man to waste tea. It is really ridiculous."

Huron complained angrily.

"What does Luojia Kingdom need most?"

Saying more words to such an old fox would increase the possibility of being sold, so Roland simply cut to the middle.

Huron smiled and shook his head, "The way you talk now is a bit like before."

"I don't know what the three of them want as ministers, but you must know. If it is for the entire Luojia Kingdom, then they definitely hope that the dry well of life will be rejuvenated."

"But it's difficult. You know, it requires a lot of moon stones and branches from the tree of life."

"I understand, thank you, farewell!"

Roland stood up to leave. Just when Huron thought his tea would be safe, Roland reached out his hand like lightning and poured himself another cup of tea, finishing it at the speed of light.

Seeing the old guy's increasingly bitter expression, Roland smiled and asked, "If I encounter danger while defending my tribe, will you take action?"

"I wouldn't even leave the library if I could."

Huron sighed softly: "I have read every book here several times. They are like my children. I don't want to leave this ocean of wisdom."

Roland's eyes lit up, and he offered an olive branch with a smile, "If I can provide you with a brand new library, although it is not as big as here, it will have at least 10,000+ books. Would you be interested in taking a look?"

Huron's cloudy eyes lit up instantly.

"Is there such a good thing? Although you are the king now, you were just a viscount before. How many books can a viscount have? Don't lie to me."

Books in this era were basically copied by hand, and the output was very low.

Although there are immature printing presses, knowledge involving extraordinary powers cannot be printed in batches by printing machines, and knowledge involving magic cannot be recorded by conventional handwriting methods, and special methods must be used.

This also made books of this era very expensive.

Especially books dealing with supernatural powers.

The collection of 10,000+ books, even ordinary books, are valuable.

After persuading old Huron, Roland walked out of the library and looked back.

The Luojia Kingdom Library was established 6000 years ago and is supported by the knowledge and wealth of the elves, so it has a collection of nearly one million books.

The Münhausen Library is only supported by the barony, so why does it have a collection of 10,000+ books?

Even the richest baronies had to start saving money from the time of Dragon Beasts to have a chance.

Does the Münhausen Library really belong to Baron Münhausen?

He had only suspected it before, but now he was very convinced that it was definitely not the case.

If the Münhausen Library had belonged to a previous baron, he would have taken most of the books with him when he left.

In fact, he only took away less than [-] books, and he marked them in the library memorabilia as belonging to his family's private collection.

Roland's eyes lit up.

The origin of the Münhausen Library is mysterious, and it may be hiding some secrets. You have to look for it when you go back.

But now is not the time to worry about the origin of the library. What he has to do is let the three important ministers work with peace of mind.

Well of life?

He walked straight towards the Well of Life, but this time the guard guarding him did not hesitate and stopped him directly.

"Human race, please stop your rude steps. This is a forbidden area of ​​Luojia Kingdom. Even if you are a distinguished guest of our clan, you are not allowed to enter."

"What if I were your new king?"

Roland had a smile on his lips.

The guard looked at Roland in confusion and his body shook violently.

He didn't recognize Roland, but he recognized the crown of Luojia that Roland wore on his head.

This important national treasure will be unveiled every time the new king ascends the throne.

His soul was trembling as he felt the surging life force of the crown.

Seeing Roland's kind smile, the guard woke up from the shock, knelt down on one knee, and said in a trembling voice: "Great Crowned King, please forgive me for my offense."

Crowned King?The corner of Roland's mouth became a little more smiley.

According to the crown of compatibility with the blood-drinking crown, the king also has a hierarchy.

The lowest of the low is the make-do king.

This kind of king has a very low status and no real power. He is just a pure mascot. All power is controlled by the general, speaker and high priest.

No one sees a problem with this.

A trash can be a king, but he can't harm the country. There's nothing wrong with that.

The next level up is the recognized king, who has a small amount of real power.

The next higher level is the blessed king. This kind of king has most of the real power, but a small amount of power is still controlled by the three ministers.

The highest level is the Crowned King.

Do not address him as a king, but directly address him as a king.

Roland is the first crowned king in the 6000 years since the Luojia Kingdom was established.

He walked into the Luojia forbidden area, leaving behind two stunned guards.

The two guards looked at each other, and one of them quickly ran towards the mansion.

They couldn't hinder the king's actions, but at least they had to inform the general.

Entering the forbidden area, Roland quickly found the dry well of life.

The status of the Well of Life in the blood elves is equivalent to that of the World Tree in the tree elves.

Before the elves became associated with the World Tree, there was no clear boundary between the blood elves and the tree elves.The elves at that time were not a top group, they were weak but united.

Everyone guards the Well of Life and leads a happy and leisurely life.

Singing and dancing, drinking well water, and playing around the well every day.

Very much like Melanie living in a sea of ​​flowers.

However, good times do not last long, and there are always people who are unwilling to accept the status quo.The ambitious tribesmen began to frantically draw on the seemingly endless energy in the wells of life, eventually causing many wells of life to dry up.

The Well of Life does have the ability to regenerate, but no matter how strong the regeneration ability is, it cannot withstand endless greed.

Recyclable resources are turned into disposable resources.

The Well of Life in the Luojia Kingdom was among the lucky few who survived to the end of the Sixth Age.

However, it also dried up before the Seventh Age began.

Chapter 040 It’s broken, I have to apologize!

When Fandel and others arrived in a hurry, they saw Roland standing in thought in front of the well of life that had been dry for 2000 years.
