Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1973 The Troubled Ereda
In the spring of the 101st year of the Imperial Calendar, construction work officially began outside the Elf Forest...

As the goblin airships kept flying in and the transport trucks drove in, a simple coastal camp was set up in less than three days.

This made Light, the Elf King, feel the impact of the 'Great Zhou Speed' once again.

However, for the Great Zhou army, this was nothing.

To effectively counter attacks from the enemy's naval fleet, a naval fortress must be built here.

In fact, their construction plan did follow this line of thinking.

They plan to transform this coastal area into their Great Zhou's naval base here.

In this process, the dock naturally needs to be set up as quickly as possible.

After all, shipbuilding is a time-consuming task, not to mention that there isn't even a shipyard here right now.

In this situation, it is best to carry out the construction of docks and ships, as well as the construction of naval bases and defense facilities, simultaneously to improve efficiency.

However, the cost of doing so is that more human and material resources need to be invested.

Zhou Xu, who had already confirmed the plan, was generous and directed the resources in the new district directly toward the new naval base project.

Meanwhile, reinforcements from the Saint Laurent region and the Rakshasa region are also rushing here as quickly as possible.

On this basis, the engineering team at the naval base also provided a batch of jobs for the elves in the Elf Forest.

Their main work consisted primarily of simple logging, quarrying, and transportation.

The construction of the naval base along the coast is also in full swing.

During this time, just as they had guessed, Eredar had been keeping an eye on everything that was happening here. With such a big commotion, it would be hard not to notice.

Hidden in the clouds, the harpy, having quietly confirmed the situation, quickly flew back to the ship. Subsequently, the black-sailed warship, which was anchored at sea, swiftly returned to port and carried the message back.

Ereda frowned deeply upon confirming the situation.

As a member of the Elven race, he was very clear about the Elven race's thoughts, but the Elven race was unaware of the thoughts of this group of 'heretics,' which was a great advantage for the Dark Elves.

However, the actions the elves are taking in the coastal region are clearly not in line with their usual practices.

“Tell me everything you see, don’t leave out a single word.”

Harpies are not a race with particularly good eyesight. Considering that the Elves also have aerial forces, the Harpies did not dare to approach at all and could only hide in the clouds and watch from afar.

Therefore, we can only get a general idea of ​​many things.

She couldn't even tell the difference between humans and elves.

Because of that distance and height, humans and elves looked almost like ants to her.

However, she did get a clear look at the goblin airships and transport vehicles.

But it can only give a general description.

After all, the Goblin Kingdom and the Elf race have only been in contact for the past few years. Before that, the Elf race had never encountered anything like goblin airships or transport vehicles.

The dark elves, led by the Eredar, fled to the sea after their failed rebellion three hundred years ago, and were even less aware of those things.

Given this premise, imagine how terrible the scene would be if you asked a harpy with a limited vocabulary to describe things she had never seen before.

Hearing the harpy's clumsy description, Eredar couldn't help but feel a little irritated.

"Enough! Get out of here!" At that moment, the harpy felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly slipped away.

Eredar knew that his current irritability was not actually due to the harpy's limited vocabulary, but rather because the situation made him realize that it was slipping out of his control.

The fear and unease brought by the unknown are constantly eroding him, and at the same time, they are causing his emotions to spiral out of control.

Unfortunately, he is currently unable to take any action.

The presence of two martial artists at the Transcendent Realm on the opposing side, including Wright, is only one of the reasons.

Another reason is the injuries he sustained in the previous battle. He has only just recovered from them, and his internal energy has not yet been restored.

Unlike Wright, Ereda didn't have another martial artist of the same level to help him solve the problem of elemental erosion by transferring true energy.

Unlike Saint Laurent I, there were no corresponding healing medicines available.

With no other options, the Eredar, trapped in a vicious cycle, could only wait out the inevitable and rely on their own strength to pull through.

Given his current state, how could he dare to make any rash moves?
During this time, he did consider whether to send Hydra or Black Sail warships to check the situation.

Ordinary elven troops would definitely be helpless against them.

But a martial artist at the Transcendent Realm level can fly over directly by releasing their true energy, not to mention there's a kid on the other side who flies incredibly fast!

Yes, that kid is the most troublesome one in Ereda's eyes.

The existence of Hilk directly disrupted the balance between them and the elves.

He and Wright were originally one-on-one, and the key to victory lay between the two of them.

From the perspective of raw strength, although Wright is superior, his advantage lies in his understanding and countermeasures against Wright. In a one-on-one duel with Wright, he has a greater chance of winning.

They were about to win, but that kid ruined everything.

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be easy for him to beat Wright, let alone now that it's two against one. He definitely can't win. The key now is how to deal with that kid.

The best solution is undoubtedly to bring that kid to our side.

Just like Eredar said before, a kid who can cultivate to the Transcendent Realm at the age of four hundred must have values ​​that don't align with those elves!
If we can get that kid over here, the situation can be reversed instantly.

Conversely, if he can't pull them back, and the two-on-one situation is there, with real hard power suppression, he really can't break the deadlock.

Thinking about this, Ereda's headache worsened.

Little did he know that this key figure did not belong to the Elven race led by Wright at all, but came from a Great Zhou Dynasty that he had never heard of.

In this instance, Eredar suffered from a lack of intelligence.

During this time, as a key figure being coveted by both sides, Hilke's life remained stable.

For him and Wright, it was simply a change of scenery.

This Elf King was not a pretentious person; he lived in a tent at the camp just like everyone else.

Every day, besides eating and sleeping, he sparred with Hilke.

It was also from this point that Wright gradually began to doubt his past 'diligence'...
