But of course no one has any room to comment on the national policies of other countries, because that is the path they rely on to survive.
Apart from anything else, just talking about the allocation of residences among the elves, there are still many empty houses without owners in the capital of Pyat Jaime. This is because of the war that destroyed the country thousands of years ago, and the elves chose to retreat to continue their lives.
When the Dark Ages ended, they returned to their original location and restored their country. However, the surviving elves have still been unable to restore the population to the level of the kingdom's heyday. It can be seen how deeply a war of that level has harmed long-lived species like them.
However, the hopeless romance in their racial character prevents them from being like some countries on Earth, which completely tilt their national power towards the military field and ignore the people's livelihood. The enjoyment and spiritual food that elves should have in their lives are still flourishing.
After the dinner, the group was taken to a place similar to an opera house. Of course there were elves performing on the stage, and they were all young people. The music and dancing are all excellent. The dancer is as soft as a bone, and every move is seductive. The performers also put in their best efforts to exaggerate people's hearts and make the listeners feel the passion they want to express.
But according to the standards of the earth, the people on the stage are just a group of young amateur performers, and they also use such occasions to express their feelings to the people they admire. Despite this, in this world where entertainment is scarce, the Opera House of the Elf Kingdom is still the place that most nobles in the Lost Land, as well as people with money and leisure, most yearn for, and they are proud to have visited it.
Of course, those young guys wanted to be on such a stage for various reasons, wanting to show themselves and express their love. Just hearing that the people on the stage were ordinary young men who might appear around her, Halumi was eager to give it a try.
But to be honest, the elves' hard-working performance would only make someone feel sleepy. Instead of watching a classical music feast, it would be better for someone to give him a small screen, a pair of headphones, and then watch a 24-hour Marvel movie. Then the subtitle is: If you don’t press the pause button, let’s see whose bladder explodes first.
However, on this night, someone thought that the elves would find an opportunity to get to the point, but amidst various entertainment programs, the night was already late.
After personally bringing the guests to the guest house, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom Luka Titov bowed to the silver-bearded dwarves and said: "Old allies, my king will meet you tomorrow. There will be a state banquet in honor of you. I hope you will You can feel at home. So please have a good rest tonight."
Immediately afterwards, the old elf came to someone again and said cautiously: "Your Excellency, Tripwood Magician, I will formally receive several of you tomorrow. We have many questions that we would like to ask, and I hope that you will not hesitate to let me know. Of course, this is by no means a free payment. We understand that the knowledge of magicians is a priceless treasure, but if you are willing to use a limited price to provide it to those in need, you will be able to gain additional friendship from us. Today It’s late, please have a good rest.”
All the carriages and luggage that had been temporarily stored at the old elf's house were sent by him in advance to where everyone was staying. The wealth above has not been touched at all. This is an advantage that the elves are quite proud of. There are no thieves in the Kingdom of Pyat Jaime. Not picking up lost items on the road and not closing the door at night are just basic operations for them.
In fact, it is easy to understand from their perspective. If most of the things that the elves need in life are distributed by the kingdom, so that all elves can live without fear, then the private property that will be retained by the elves must be that A very commemorative and unique item, and these items will definitely be known to most people.
After all, the society of elves is very small, and there are not many novel things in life, so as long as there is some trouble, if one elf knows about it, it means that all elves know about it.
So in such a situation, the chance of stealing other people's things without being discovered is very, very small. Unless something is stolen, never use it or show it off to others. On the other hand, the arrogance of most elves also makes them disdain to do such behavior. Besides, they are more keen on pursuing spiritual satisfaction rather than these replaceable materials.
As for a small number of people, according to them, they just can't stand the atmosphere in the kingdom, and most of them wander outside. When they see enough of the darkness in the outside world, these elves will naturally return to their hometown where they grew up. Understand that all this suppression is for survival. Of course, there are also a few people who never come back...
It seems that the elves value their 'ancient allies' more, but in fact, both Lin and others, and the Silverbeard dwarves, receive similar treatment. The real difference lies in the supplies in the dwarves' rooms. The elves carefully selected the supplies that suit their height and habits.
The single room is not very spacious, but it has a variety of supplies for personal use, such as dressing mirrors, combs, nightgowns, etc. The bed has a light fragrance, which you won't be able to detect if you don't smell it carefully, but it is just right to make people relax their body and mind unconsciously. If this were placed on Earth, it would at least be a star-rated hotel.
Such a comfortable environment and a rare quiet night can make someone fall asleep as soon as they touch the bed. If you travel for a long time, you will miss the life at home; if you stay at home for a long time, you will want to travel. People are so contradictory. But on the first day of life change, the fatigue from the previous journey or the tiredness from staying at home will be released in one breath. At this time, people will always be particularly relaxed.
Outside the window, a kitten climbed the wall with its sharp claws hidden on the edge of the meat ball, and finally climbed onto the windowsill. I saw someone sleeping on his stomach. His petite body seemed to want to enter the house. His short legs kept stretching, as if he was looking for a suitable place to jump, but then retracted because he was afraid of losing his balance.
This happened several times, and after the kitten meowed a few times in its milky voice, it seemed to have made up its mind, slightly bending its legs, and prepared to jump.
With this accumulation of energy, another layer of darkness quietly and quickly enveloped the entire room. The kitten's hair suddenly exploded, its back arched, and it screamed in a milky voice. At the same time, it lost its balance and fell outward from the narrow window sill to the ground. The kitten fell heavily to the ground, but it seemed that it was not hurt at all. It turned over flexibly and ran away wildly.
The starry sky in the room twinkled, as if a human eye was blinking, watching the petite figure disappear into the darkness. Then the starlight disappeared and everything returned to normal. Of course, someone didn't know what happened while he was sleeping.
Early the next morning, two very luxurious carriages for carrying people arrived in front of the reception house. One car came from the Elf Royal Family, and the Imperial Guard personally came to greet the four distinguished guests, the silver-bearded dwarves who had not appeared on the surface for thousands of years. The other car came from the prime minister of the kingdom. Although the specifications were not as luxurious as the one from the royal family, Liena Titov, the elf sword dancer, personally escorted the team.
However, Lin still discovered one thing, that is, the two carriages were actually of the same specifications. Only the coat with the coat of arms on it is different, and the people responsible for reception obviously have different affiliations. I guess this is an official vehicle to some extent.
But regardless of whether it is a business car or not, at least the Elf knows how to put some effort into comfort. Things that don't look like dwarves are just stupid and thick, have the same temperament as those old guys in the north of my hometown, or they are particular about some weird places. Sitting on the carriage used by elves to pick up and drop off guests, the velvet chairs were as soft as the sofa, which reminded someone of their life before time travel.
As soon as they got in the car, the two girls deliberately sat on the chairs and bounced, surprised by the comfort brought by the car. There is nothing that can be done about it. During someone's journey, the carriage mainly carries all their belongings and cannot take into account the comfort of the ride. So everyone is enjoying the privilege of traveling without having to walk on their own, at the cost of having to sit on the cold wooden boards.
The carriage was on the road to the palace. After gaining a deeper understanding of this country, Lin looked at the scenery along the road and had some indescribable feelings.
In particular, he carefully observed the elves walking on the streets in this early morning. Although there is no vigorous vitality, there is definitely no twilight energy like stagnant water. Just like the characters of the elves, they look plain on the outside, but they are passionate on the inside.
The two carriages separated at the gate of the palace. The royal family that the dwarves wanted to meet was in the inner palace, where the elven royal family lived; the prime minister of the kingdom that Lin and others wanted to meet was in the office of the outer palace.
The palace occupies a vast area, and the elf-style pastoral landscape is even more unique in someone's eyes. It is neither the European and American garden style of the earth, which emphasizes neatness and appears too heavy with chiseling marks; nor is it like the Chinese garden style, which blindly pursues natural wonders and attempts to include heaven, earth and circles in a small world.
The elves' courtyard landscaping is not so much a landscape as it is a unique defense for the elves. Various highly aggressive plants are cultivated at staggered intervals. It might be flowers, it might be leaves, it might be the smell that hits your nose inadvertently, threatening all those who dare to invade this palace.
Especially those who like to hide in the shadows and think they are very good at martial arts. Just imagine what the consequences will be if you make small moves near the dragon's drooling mouth. Those people probably looked that miserable.
The plants and trees in the palace courtyard made Harumi's eyes light up, and she wished she could get off the carriage and enjoy the flowers. She could even tell the names and characteristics of these plants, their special talents, and their attack patterns like a treasure trove. Of course, more importantly, she is also quite aware of the weaknesses, or shortcomings, of these plants.
As the carriage passed by, the blond girl even stretched her hand out of the window and touched a special plant, the huge and bright flowers. It seemed that the other elves were on tenterhooks and their eyes almost bulged out.
The plant that Halumi touched was the famous piranha in the palace. Not to mention the enemies, even the gardeners among the elves who were responsible for tending the courtyard did not know how many people had their arms bitten off. I haven’t heard of anyone that flower has let go, but there is one right in front of me.
Finally, the carriage stopped in front of a simple and unpretentious building. The elves are focused on spiritual satisfaction, and even if it is a house with the same specifications, they can play different tricks. So simplicity itself is the most special existence.
A group of old men with white hair and beards lined up in front of the building. Looking at this battle, some people don't think this is an attitude that is taken seriously, but rather it seems that they are trying to give someone a blow.
Who says elves are not evil? Someone would not naively think that he was so important that he needed to invite such a line of people to greet him.
