Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 846 The Year of the Centenarian

Daxus crossed his legs and leaned lazily on the back of the booth, his right arm casually resting on his forehead, his eyes cast casually towards the ceiling.

When Bel-Ehor opened the silver cigarette case and handed him a Sole, he waved his hand to refuse, bent down, took out a cigarette from the Malus cigarette case on the table, and fixed it on the filter. Then, he reached out and picked up the windproof lighter on the table, pressed it lightly, and the orange flame jumped up, reflecting in his deep eyes. He tilted his head slightly, and the flame licked the tobacco leaves until a tiny light lit up on the cigarette butt, and curls of light smoke rose.

The "Marus" here does not refer to the Malus buried on the Blackwater River. Brother Wu Ma does not have that kind of cards yet. This Malus refers to the planet where he lives.

"They came in silver ships, with incredible powers and unfathomable mystery. Back then, our world was frozen, vast and desolate. Life was simple and savage, without language, knowledge or civilization. They changed us, changed everything. All we knew was that they were called the Old Ones. They had the power to move worlds, to pull planets closer to or push them away from the eternal heat of the sun. And they did just that, bringing life back to our cold planet.

But this upset the balance of the other worlds, because everything is connected, so they moved the other planets as well, creating an incredible harmony between the stars, a perfection that can still be seen today by observing the sky.

The Book of Ages, one of the greatest chronicles in Asur history, not only records the history of the elves, but also contains information about astronomy and the nature of the known universe.

By the way, this book was compiled by Fenrir.

Who is Fenrir?
Dacus, who is bad at naming, originally planned to call the cigarette Cosmic. Hey, comrade, where is your person in charge?
But he finally gave up. He thought about it and decided that since he had to give a name, he might as well classify the cigarettes according to the level of the stars.

Without a doubt, the supreme choice of the first tier is Sol (Sll) - as a star, it is the source of all light and warmth and should be at the top. (Chapter 127)
The five sons of Thor and Asuryan were all born from Asheril, and the last five were born from Naggaroth. After the printing technology was further upgraded, the front and back packaging of cigarette boxes also had corresponding celestial bodies and texts. Is this a kind of popular science or knowledge promotion? Let the Duruchi look up at the universe? Prepare for leaving Malus in the future?

However, the last Obskulia was not recorded in the Book of Ages. Although the elves observed it a long time ago, the specific content is somewhat controversial, which is related to astronomy. The Sigma Empire observed it after 2300 years of the Imperial Calendar, and Zhendan did not know.

As for the Lizardmen… that was long ago, so long ago that the Ancient Saints were still active on this planet.

Dacus held the cigarette between his legs, remained silent for a moment, and then shrugged. Compared to those high-end products, he still preferred Malus. The cigarette was a bit bitter, but it carried an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

He raised his head and blew a smoke ring toward the ceiling, watching it slowly spread and finally disappear into the air, just like the passage of time - silently, day and night.

Or, like an albino mule, traveling alone through the Chaos Rift.

He was born in the 90s, and that guy was also born in the 90s, a real 90s, born in 1992 in the imperial calendar. If this isn’t a 90s, what is?
In the year 2077 of the Imperial Calendar, he made an achievement, or rather, played a bad joke.

Welcome to Night City...

In a blink of an eye, he has reached the age of 100, which means 100 years old. However, in the elf society, 100 years old does not have any special symbolic meaning, let alone the age of 70 or 80. After all, the life span of elves is long enough. 100 years old? It's just a young man, in the prime of life, brave enough to venture into the world.

So, he is still strong, full of vitality, and energetic. He works and rests on time. While working, he does not neglect to exercise. Practicing is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. But for some reason, maybe it's because of the experience of coming back from the dead, his hair has turned completely white.

If he grew two more horns on his forehead, he could COS the Dragon King of the East Sea in Nezha.

But no matter what, he really didn't want to go to Class B at all. He didn't want to go there for even a single day...

However, there is no way.

He still has to go.

Who makes him the weightlifting champion of Naggaroth?

As the saying goes, no matter who is missing, the planet will still rotate.

But Drucci really can't do without him.

Tonight's plan was to go to the military camp for a meeting, or more precisely, to Taliondan, but before that, he could still fish for a while. He would go when the time was almost up. As for the nature of the meeting, what would it start with...

This year is the year 2092 in the Imperial Calendar, and it's time to get started.

At this moment, he was sitting in the "Red Dragon's Wrath" bar in the north of Nagarond.

Judging from the name, the direction couldn’t be more obvious; this is the industry controlled by the red dragons.

The style of the entire bar is completely different from other places in the city of Naggarond, with a lot of crimson decorations, a bar counter made of mahogany, metal nameplates engraved with flame runes hanging on the wall, and even the tavern's sign light has a warm yellow glow, making it hard not to think of the flames of dragon's breath.

It was afternoon and the bar was particularly quiet.

Not only was the afternoon not the peak drinking season, but also because the military's vacations were canceled, the atmosphere in Naggarond became tense and grim. In addition, the cost of "Red Dragon's Wrath" was ridiculously high, and ordinary soldiers could not afford it. The only people who consumed here were usually middle and senior officers, nobles, or the Red Dragon himself.

So, in the bar now, besides Daxus and his gang, there were only Avanach behind the bar, and the cook and waiter in the kitchen.

The wine glasses and bottles on the bar were neatly arranged. The glassware reflected an amber glow under the warm candlelight of the tavern, like a treasure house filled with precious liquids. The air was filled with the aroma of wine, and the strong aroma of fruit wood smoke and the aftertaste of spicy liquor intertwined, making people want to take a sip involuntarily. On one side of the bar, a bottle of expensive Dragon's Breath liquor was quietly placed in the corner. The dark golden runes on the bottle were looming in the candlelight, like the low hum of dragon language.

Ivanach sat on a high-back chair behind the bar, leaning forward slightly, wearing a pair of gold-framed glasses on his nose, holding a pen in his hand, concentrating on recording something. The candlelight illuminated his profile, and the gold frame reflected light slightly, making his eyes look a little obscure from certain angles.

People have hundreds of kinds of beauty, flowers have thousands of shades of red, and the same is true for red dragons.

Among the red dragons, Avanagh is a unique existence, an alien, a maverick. (Chapter 422)
In human terms, he is a weak fighter, but he has a strong sense of stealth. He likes to watch quietly in the dark and thinks he is controlling everything.

As for what exactly he was controlling...even he himself couldn't explain it.

But this does not affect his opinion.

Therefore, he was in charge of this business as a bartender. While entertaining guests, he would extract some stories from them. If the stories of the guests were interesting enough, he would even make an exception and treat them.

Of course, this is not simply generosity, but an equal exchange.

That glass of wine is the buyout fee.

The copyright of the story belongs to him.

Thanks to the development of papermaking and printing, during his years in Naggaroth, Avanagh published countless novels and stories, greatly enriching the folk entertainment of the Duruchi society. Some of these works were even adapted into dramas and put on stage, becoming all the rage.

Initially, "Rage of the Red Dragon" was so popular that it was packed with Duruchi. They tried to establish a relationship with Avanach in various ways, vying to tell their own or heard anecdotes, and exaggeratedly boasting about their experiences, just to establish a connection with the red dragon.

However, over time, they gradually realized one thing.

Something's wrong! Something is very wrong!
Avanagh is simply collecting materials and writing novels!

Those who thought they could cling to the power of the red dragon eventually found themselves becoming just characters in a story. Even their names were not changed before they were written into the urban stories of Naggaroth.

But by this time, it was already too late.

Moreover, the model has been formed, and "Red Dragon's Wrath" has gradually evolved into an officers' club. After all, this is not only the territory of Avanach, but also a gathering place for red dragons.

Daxus took a deep breath, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, then picked up a French fry, dipped it in ketchup, and slowly took a bite. His movements were as if he was enjoying the last peaceful moment of his life.

The wind outside the bar whistled past, bringing with it the unique chill of Nagaros. Compared to the cold world outside, the atmosphere in the bar was calm and steady, more like a temporary safe haven.

Nothing major has happened in Naggaroth in these years.

Apart from a bout with the chaotic wave of home delivery a few years ago, the entire Duruchi society has remained largely stable.

Or rather, it was hard for anything big to happen in this situation. Unless he or Malekith went crazy and insisted on doing something stupid.

In Daxus's opinion, if he had to use one word to describe the current Naggaroth, it would be - stable!

If I had to add one more word, it would be - stable and improving!
Due to the strategic active contraction and Druch's initiative to give up Har Gansi, Daxus gradually developed an illusion that all the Yankees in the Chaos Wasteland had poured into Naggaroth.

The clashes between Druki and the Chaos Tide became more frequent, especially in the vast ice fields in the north, where small-scale conflicts became almost a daily occurrence. According to some strange pattern, every fifteen years or so, a war would break out between the two sides that would sweep across the entire North, as if the Chaos Gods had also realized that Hag Graves's mine lacked sufficient labor dispatch, and so they regularly sent free labor.

As for the naval battle, the Druki Navy firmly held the leading position. They blocked the outer waters of Hal Gansey every day, which made the northerners still want to build ships to compete with Druki at first, but after being defeated several times in succession, they completely gave up this idea.

During this period, the Yankees tried to organize a large-scale attack on Karl Carrond when the Sea of ​​Malice froze, but they were devastated. Since then, they have learned their lesson, or have been forced to attack Nagarond and Grond.

After all, you can still fight on land, but you really can't fight on the sea.

If there is any big event, it is that two years ago, Finnubar led a small but heavyweight delegation to visit Naggaroth.

After learning the news, Dakwus deliberately adjusted his schedule and went to Clarkarond to greet him in person. After all, this was a major diplomatic breakthrough, symbolizing that the tacit understanding and cooperation between him and Finnubar had reached a new level. Moreover, as an old friend, he could not neglect this guest who came from afar, and he had to show his hospitality.

The main members of the delegation are Marin, Adeanna, Bel-Tanya, Italis, and of course Bel-Ahor. Yes, he is back again, back to Naggaroth. In addition to Asur, Kaia from Laurent Loren and Alaros from Athel Loren also came.

Over the years, the connection between Duruchi and Ainir has never been interrupted, and trade has continued quietly. Kaiya appeared in Tal Yvresse, not only to participate in the Ascension Ceremony of Alagalon, but also to start a crucial negotiation with the Asur.

The content of the negotiation was not about trade shares, but about preventing Aislin from blocking the door every day.

Initially, the trade between Duruchi and Ainir went quite smoothly. Duruchi's fleet did not choose to take the route from Ersin Alvin to Lustria, but directly departed from Karl Karonde and took the North Vast Ocean. The reason why this route was chosen was simple - it was close!

After all, this world is not a plane, but a complete sphere. Using this, Duruchi was able to greatly shorten the voyage.

Thanks to the large amount of supplies brought by Druki, the bridge originally guarded by Asanok was transformed into a solid steel bridge, and the construction speed of some settlements was also accelerated. Kor Imamor gradually restored its former glory. In addition, the armor equipment level of the Ainir warriors has also been greatly improved. Now almost everyone has a chest armor and a helmet that is almost bulletproof, and the survival rate in battle is much higher than in the past.

However, during this period, Dacus was often disgusted by Marest. According to his original idea, the Anil should be equipped with some ships and sail on the Vast Ocean, but Marest saw through him, or was sure of his relationship with Kaia, Talos' father and Lindyalock.

Under Marest's obstruction, Ainir's fleet formation was stuck in a bottleneck, resulting in a situation where only goods could be transported in but not out. On the other hand, Lauren's geographical location limited its shipping development. If it wanted to reach Dasai Atilta, it had to cross the Claw Sea.

The problem is that the Claw Sea has become a blockade area for Asur! After all, the entrance to the Claw Sea is so small.

The Asur fleet stationed in Marienburg would conduct blockade patrols on the Claw Sea at regular intervals, causing intermittent maritime trade between Duruchi and Ainel.

Despite this, Asur himself did not gain much advantage from it.

Meroseg Strong Wind, do you know? (Chapter 477)
He was stationed in Marienburg under the orders of Finnubar, and traded with humans. He was an Asur, but he was also a Duruchi spy. He secretly manipulated the flow of information and continuously provided intelligence to Naggaroth, allowing Duruchi to take the initiative in many conflicts.

In addition to Meroseg, there is also the owner of the "Forest House" in Altdorf - Trancas, who is known as the woman killer.

This guy was so mysterious that Daxus never saw him from the time he arrived in Altdorf until he left. According to the housekeeper Einir, before he left, this guy went to Marienburg to handle some matters, but was later delayed by the Battle of Altdorf. When Einir was no longer needed to guard the north of Altdorf, this guy opened a branch in the Asur residential area of ​​Marienburg.

This operation is like...

In addition, the Duruchi merchant ships going to Lauren Loren were all special ships, fast and smooth. If they were blocked in Ceatielta, they would just waste time, or stare at the Asur navy on land. After all, Kaia's religious prestige was there, which made the Asur side dare not rashly provoke a conflict in the territory of Ainel.

After leaving Lauren Lauren's territory, both sides started to show off their unique abilities.

Marist's move won't cause any major diplomatic problems, but internally...

The intelligence Daxus had revealed showed that the city-state elves of Tal Litanel were deeply dissatisfied with this strategy, and opposition from local forces was rising one after another. It had even developed to the point where local power was in opposition to the central authority, and there was a tendency for the rift to widen.

In order to quell this internal disagreement, Kaeya had to go to Ulthuan in person to start a series of mediation efforts. In the end, after a round of verbal battles that were more than a brother's, the problem was solved.

This is really a case of using someone else's power to fight against them, however, this is bullshit politics.

At the same time, the opening of the sea to Asur deviated from its original historical trajectory due to the intervention of Dacus.

In another timeline, Finubar should have persuaded Bel-Hathor to lift the sea ban after Elsin Arwen returned to Lothern, gradually opening the port of Lothern to the outside world and allowing human merchant ships to enter the port under the guidance of the Asur fleet.

However, the situation has become delicate now. Although trade has begun, the sea ban has not been lifted. Dacuus' words forced Finnubar to think carefully and decided to keep the sea ban in place instead of completely opening up the waters of Asur.

In order to compromise and win over, Ulthuan's main shipping point was set up in Tor Yvresse. Ships from the three eastern kingdoms gathered here to integrate and assemble supplies, and then sailed to Marienburg in the Sigmar Empire and Briony in Bretonnia according to their destinations. Occasionally, there would be some daring smuggling ships that secretly transported goods to Ceatielta in Laurentolone, and got some scarce goods from Duruchi through intermediaries.

This strategy not only made Tor Yvresse a hub for Ulthuan's maritime trade, but also further consolidated its economic position in Ulthuan, making this already prosperous city even more prosperous.

As for Athel Loren, although the existence hidden in the depths of the forest is still lurking, the overall situation remains steadily improving.

The deepening of trade has made Bretonnia a natural barrier to Athel Loren. The noble Bretonnians wanted to take this opportunity to collect taxes from the elves and make money. However, when they tried to implement this plan, they did not get wealth, but...

Lilith, Lake Fairy, Elves, Lizardmen: ???
Forest Spirit: Do you want us to kill them?
In order to ensure the safety of Athel Loren, the Lizardmen sent reinforcements to Athel Loren many times through the Green Ark. Although the scale of each reinforcement was not large, its political significance far outweighed the actual value of the troops.

This is not only a deterrent measure that prevents humans and Asrai from acting rashly, but also a silent declaration - Athel Loren is under the protection of the ancient saints, and any force that intends to interfere in this place must think twice before acting.

The stability of Athel Loren made it possible for Alaros to travel. After his term in the High Council ended and he entered his rotation period, he was commissioned by the Senate to step out of the forest, travel around, and observe changes in the external situation.

This is not only part of Aslay's internal strategy, but also a critical moment for them to re-examine the world situation and evaluate their allies and enemies - because in this turbulent era, any mistake in standing on the right side may determine the fate of the future.

After the launch of the first five-year plan, Naggaroth conducted a comprehensive and detailed census. However, the results were far lower than Dacus's expectations. The total population of Naggaroth was only 76, including the population of each Ark.

Despite this, Naggaroth did not stop, but moved firmly towards the future.

During the sixty years of development, several five-year plans were implemented successively, covering many key areas such as agricultural improvement, industrial upgrading, infrastructure construction, urban expansion and social welfare reform.

This series of changes not only improved Naggaroth's productivity, but also greatly improved people's living standards and provided more solid support for population growth.

Of course, I still can’t be self-sufficient.

Two years ago, Nagaros conducted another census. This time, the statistics shocked everyone who knew about it. In the absence of any foreign immigrants, Nagaros's population growth rate reached 2.8%.

If calculated using the population growth formula: P = P × (1 + r) t
The initial population P was 76, with an annual growth rate r of 2.8%. After 60 years (t=60) of population changes, the population size of Naggaroth finally reached nearly 380 million.

However, the population growth was not evenly distributed throughout Naggaroth. Due to the influence of geographical environment, social structure and policy inclination, Klar Karond gradually replaced other cities and became the most livable settlement.

According to the latest census data, out of the 380 million population, 160 million live in Clar Karond, making it the most prosperous city in all of Naggaroth, without a doubt.

In comparison, Lothern, the future "City of the World's Desire", is undoubtedly the current "City of the World's Desire".

Krakalond not only carries the glory and hope of Naggaroth, but also represents the firm steps of the Duruchi society towards prosperity. Although, this city will not stand at the top of the world in a more glorious posture and become a great city that the whole world yearns for.

The first stop of the Asur delegation's visit was Clarkalond.

(I am not in good condition, so I will do less... I will not expand on the visit. It will be the end of the month if I continue. I will just write a running account to show the results of diplomacy and farming. The Battle of Anaheim will start the day after tomorrow.) (End of this chapter)
