Chapter 458: Ominous Dream

According to incomplete statistics from New World Naturalists, the average life expectancy of the human race is about 45 years old. Nobles who are well-off can enjoy better living and medical conditions, and the average life expectancy usually does not exceed seventy years.⊥

The half-elves, a cross-ethnic mixed-race child, perfectly inherits the advantages of parents from different ethnic groups. The growth rate of half-elves is as fast as that of short-lived humans. It is not as slow as purebred elves. Generally, rapid development will continue until the end of puberty. The half-elves can maintain youthful vitality and vigorous vitality for a long time, which makes them look more like members of the middle-elves. Although the average lifespan of half-elves is not longer than that of purebred humans, they will maintain their youth much longer than that of purebred humans. It can be said that they have reached the end of their lives without the aging process. The concept of aging itself is very unfamiliar with half-elves.

When Vena Dubov agreed to her old student proposal, she already understood what test she would face in the future. Even without the mysterious curse, her married life was destined to be smooth.

At the beginning, it may be harmonious and happy. As time goes by, the human spouse with aging appearance and body gradually grows older, and the other half of the elf in her prime may be an interesting story to others. Once they become the protagonist of this story, it will not be funny. The family tragedy caused by this is really not one or two. This is also the reason why half-elves generally lack a sense of belonging. Whether they choose to live with humans or elves, they will eventually feel that they are an alien. The relatively rare number of half-elves is not enough to form an independent society. This kind of lonely feeling of rootless floating duckweed is difficult for outsiders to understand.

Vina Dubov had already realized that she would not be so stupid that she had to ask her husband what secrets she had that she could not tell her. She just hugged Luo Zhengdao from behind with her arms and whispered in his ear:

"Dear, Dido and I will be with you forever."

Hearing the sound, while moved, Luo Zhengdao was not blinded by the warmth and said:

"Vina, we are mortals, don't ask for too much, otherwise your cruel fate will let you and me know that everything we have is actually much more than we have lost."

Just as Luo Zhengdao and the half-elf beauty shared a rare tender time, a servant ran in quickly from the front door and shouted loudly:

"Your Majesty the King! Your Majesty the King!"

Seeing this, Luo Zhengdao patted Vina Dubov's arm with his hand, then tidied up his appearance and asked:

"Don't panic, what happened?"

"Your Majesty, Xiangjiang has been occupied by goblins, and the business group is over."

The value of the main continent re-export port of Xiangjiang is that the great powers have real needs. The Second Goblin Empire needs to import stone pine powder from the Storm Sea controlled by Yaling and Elves, and at the same time export the main continent's specialties filaments and magic pattern cloth as a tacit exchange. Due to the scarcity of these strategic materials and the special effects of irreplaceable, although the parties involved in the transaction are not willing, the actual needs also force them to come together. For such a gray trading zone that is trampled on the edge, it will not be praised in public. In private, it is completed through a third-party re-export port. Everyone can declare with peace of mind that this is an illegal business that a small group of people who are obsessed with interests does not involve their respective positions.

Now, the fall of the main continent has become a recognized trend and will become a reality one day in the future and will no longer be a nonsense rumor on the streets and alleys.

With Luo Zhengdao signing a ten-year armistice agreement with the goblins on behalf of the human camp, the multi-line combat dilemma that has long plagued the second empire of Goblins has been temporarily resolved, and they can free up their hands to deal with certain problems.

Watching the development of the situation coldly, knowing that the goblins have no energy to threaten them. Although the attitude of Yaling and the elf to treat the matter is still ambiguous, their hostility is indeed not as strong as before, and the trade blockade against the main continent also showed signs of loosening.

Just at this moment, the value that Xiangjiang once relies on was wiped out. The goblins who had always lacked patience and tolerance did not need to keep this puppet as a decoration. They chose the strategy of killing fat pigs for the New Year without hesitation. It was time for Xiangjiang, the fat idiots with a lot of heart, to contribute to their masters. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that the Xiangjiang Merchant Group Union was originally a fat pig for the goblins to grow. Although the pigs would struggle hard when they were slaughtering pigs, the Merchant Group Union did not even have the courage to struggle dyingly. The big bosses of the Merchant Group Union gave up resistance and tried to escape to the sea with their own assets. The goblins who had been arranged in advance in the morning could not give them a chance to slip away. After a little effort, they were all killed.

The prepared goblins easily swallowed the merchant group and then the goblin army looted the entire Hong Kong Port. Considering the sensitive relationship with the human camp at this time, the goblin army has never killed human civilians in Hong Kong as usual.

Looking at the face of His Majesty King Will Nidham, the goblin chose to give up his money and live for money. Hong Kong, which was once prosperous and prosperous, has become a flower tomorrow. The former rulers and the lower class have fallen into the streets and become a new impoverished class. Not to mention that they are about to starve to death, the actual situation is not much better.

After reading the information at hand, Luo Zhengdao couldn't help but grin and sighed:

"The goblins are quick enough."

"His Majesty the King, how do we deal with it?"

From a business perspective, the attendants do not need to participate in the discussion of major national policies, but they are also the reserve army of the entire ruling group. The next step is to transfer the information to the General Staff. The attendants are eager to know what the king's handling opinions are.

In front of his own people, Luo Zhengdao did not hide his true thoughts. First, there was no need for this, and second, he could not hide it. He said with a smile:

"Ignore the business group alliance. These guys are supported by goblins, and we have no obligation to claim rights for them."

"Yes, His Majesty the King. So are we going to send warships to help the refugees in Hong Kong?"

Hearing the sound, Luo Zhengdao thought for a moment, thinking that it was indeed not suitable to smash the golden signboard of human co-lords. No matter how hard the business group died, you can’t say that all humans in Xiangjiang should die, right? So he nodded and said:

"Well, I inform the General Staff to prepare for rescue and send people to negotiate with the goblins. The Navy will send a ship to Xiangjiang to transport those humans who are willing to follow us to Qiongzhou. Let the guys who are united in the business group die with them!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will inform the General Staff and the Admiralty."

Unlike the family model of the Chinese dynasty in the old world, under the system of the new world, although the kings also had small treasuries, the treasury was really not something he could control at will. The private property and public property of the aristocrats in the new world were clearly divided, which was more similar to the feudal method in Europe.

During the development of Wick Reef and Qiongzhou, Luo Zhengdao's private property was used, so those places were the property of the Earl of Fulu family. Not long ago, some of the land and cities of the main continent were recaptured from the goblins, so that those places could be regarded as state-owned assets of the Kingdom of Light.

Suppose that Luo Zhengdao immediately kicked his legs, then the heir to the title of Earl Fulu can regard Wick Reef and Qiongzhou as his fief. If the successor king was not the same as Earl Fulu, he could only as a feudal monarch to advocate various rights as a feudal lord, demanding the vassal to pay annuity and tribute, and assume the obligation to send troops to fight. There is no need to fantasize about interfering in other matters. This method is not in accordance with the rules and will be jointly controlled by everyone. There is so-called wind can enter, rain can enter, and kings cannot enter, which is not the broken thatched hut of the mud legs, but the fief of these nobles of all sizes.

Under this clear power distribution pattern, the energy spent on straightening internal relations is more tiring than fighting with Luo Zhengdao and the goblin army.

I listened too much to the official language and clichés before traveling through time, such as organizational construction, but Luo Zhengdao actually didn't take it to heart. He never thought that he would be tired like a dead dog when he held power. This is called "I'll hate you when I use it! Of course, first of all, I have to admit that Luo Zhengdao did catch up with a good opportunity for a hero to emerge in a troubled world, and it is also inseparable from his own values ​​of striving for perfection. If he had the idea of ​​"I don't care about the flood after I died", he would be able to be very comfortable at any time and place. Unfortunately, the curse of the God of Desolation does not support him to live in the new world and wait for death.

....................................................................................

“Where is this place?”

As soon as he recovered his consciousness, Luo Zhengdao opened his eyes and realized that something was wrong. The place he was in was different from the suppressed and solemn atmosphere displayed by the Eternal Great Library. Although it was the hazy sky covered by dark clouds, there were no huge bookshelfs as big as buildings in the far view, only empty, desolate and cracked land and dry and charred bare branches of trees, which was a very authentic dead atmosphere. Stopped in this strange place and looked around, Luo Zhengdao was both surprised and confused. He clearly remembered that he was in the office and later felt a little tired...

"Is this... a dream?"

Luo Zhengdao, who muttered to himself, felt a chill. The process of the magic card master's law-based transformation of the body is simply a wonderful change from the ** to the spirit, and until the soul also undergoes transformation. Luo Zhengdao, who knows the truth but does not know the reason, is walking on this road. It is rare to have a dream in the year. If you ask him to believe that the strange and terrifying dream in front of him happened by chance, it would be better to ask him to feed himself a bag of salt.

At this time, Luo Zhengdao's eyes narrowed, murderous intent appeared in his eyes and muttered:

"...Is it a nightmare? Or is it a god who has mastered the priesthood of dreams?"

“Ga—Ga—Ga—Ga—”
