It doesn't matter what the lord is.

Reed slept for three days, and woke up several times in a daze. It was not because of anything important, but mainly because he was too hungry to continue sleeping.

Alayya took meticulous care of her young master. As soon as Lid showed signs of waking up, she got up first to prepare for Lid's death. Then she helped Lid lean against the head of the bed, fed him food with her own hands, and then helped Lid go back to sleep.

When Lid really opened his eyes, he felt that his mind had regained clarity and his body became very relaxed. So he smiled at Alaiya who was beside him, and Alaiya also smiled gently, then fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Reed slept for three days, but Alayya didn't sleep for three days.

Reed covered her with the quilt, then stood up. The first thing he did was not to meet He Yue and others, but to pick up the little slime.

The little slime originally wanted to play a prank on Reed, whom he had not seen for a long time, but his wild instinct made him feel that there was something different about Reed now, so the little slime adopted an observation method and lay on the table for the time being and did nothing.

Lid sat in a chair, looked at it, and the first thing he said was:

"You have to eat more recently."

The little slime retreated to the edge of the table in fear and said tremblingly:

"Wow... you're not trying to fatten me up for your health, are you? I'll tell you in advance, I'm not tasty at all. No matter if I'm steamed or braised, or even if I serve it cold, it can only be as good as cold jellyfish. Cold jellyfish... slurp. Anyway, anyway! I will never give in!"

Lid waved his hand and said:

"Look at what you said, it's nothing serious. I just made too many enemies recently, and I think you should grow up faster so that you can be more useful." The little slime was obviously relieved and asked:

"What kind of enemy did you make? Hehe, don't worry, I will help you deal with it. The white flea that parasitizes on your body and holds a sign like a streetwalker can't be dealt with, but I can help you deal with it. It's a piece of cake."

Lid counted on his fingers:

"First, when I was in the Sea of ​​Clouds, I saved a God-Chooser, and then I abducted another important figure of the Old God. To be more precise, I abducted him a long time ago, and they slept together for many years."

The little slime shrank back and said with all his strength:

"The old gods were originally my enemies. This is nothing." Lid said again:

"Then I killed the Pillar of Eternal Life, Clenus, in the Undersea Temple in the Far North. I also killed a lot of puppets of the Pillar of Dreams, Atnak, in Western Qin. Then I released the Abyss Ancestral Dragon."

The little slime shrank again. Now it looked smaller than a palm. Its tone began to become a little unconfident: "No, do I have to take care of Kungu's affairs...?"

Lidd continued:

"Also, I heard that this body of mine is a vessel prepared for a certain big shot in the void, and is some kind of experimental subject. I guess I will have to break away from the void in the future."

The little slime bounced straight off the table and bumped around the room like a bouncy ball, angrily saying;

"This isn't a problem that I can solve once I grow up! How many races have you offended? Don't you have any idea?" Lid casually caught the little slime, like a catcher catching a baseball, and said to it:

"I know you're not that capable, so I didn't plan to rely on you to save me. But now that I've attracted a lot of attention, if you don't get stronger quickly, it's better for you to leave early, or else someone will quietly kill you one day."

3. You should go home

Reed put the little slime on the table, but the little slime did not jump away immediately.

It looked at Lid, and seemed to be frightened by what Lid had just said. Although the little slime kept shouting for revenge, it was actually very clear about its current strength. Not to mention seeking revenge on the upper three tribes, the current little slime couldn't even beat Lid. When it first heard the news that it would fight the upper three tribes, the little slime was completely confused.

But after coming to his senses, the little slime looked at Reed and had no intention of escaping for a moment.

Where else could it go?

This world is indeed vast, but what will it become after leaving here? The little slime had no answer, so it asked Lid:

"Wow... I'm telling you, even if you tell me to eat more, what can I eat? I haven't had a full meal in a long, long time since I came back from the Lava Tribe's territory."

Lid touched its round body and said with a smile:

"Wanze Territory's Prince Xihe should be home soon. I'll take you there first. Wanze Territory is currently struggling over what to do with the demon corpses on the battlefield, so you can go and have a hearty meal. In addition, I've prepared a gift for you, which should be delivered in a few days."

The second son of the Dragon King, Nopres, died in the illusion created by the Abyss Ancestral Dragon. It can be said that it died because of the Abyss Ancestral Dragon, or it can be said that it died of its own greed and stupidity. However, it was only its brain that was stupid, and its body was still somewhat useful. Lideto, the Abyss Ancestral Dragon, fished it out of the illusion, packed it up and sent it to Lingyun City. It is estimated that it will arrive in a few days.

Lid's promise was too big, and the little slime was unsure. He said nervously:

"I, I still feel a little panicked... I heard that supplies are distributed before every war, and I feel that something is not right. You, you are not going to let me go on the road after I have eaten my fill, are you?"

Lid patted it with a kind smile and said:

"It's better to travel with a full stomach than to be reborn as a starving ghost. We have no choice, because we are destined to sail against the current since we were born." The little slime was silent, and after a long time he sighed softly.

After sending the little slime away, Lid went to meet Delis. This princess of the elves had been the housekeeper of Zhaochen for some time and had been very busy. She was an elf and had few friends among humans. She could talk to Alaiya before, but Alaiya went to Xiqin with Lid and then to the Dragon Clan. Delis didn't even have anyone to talk to, so she could only work hard with a lot of grievances.

After seeing Reed, Delis's eyes first turned red, and then she became furious. Reed smiled and massaged her shoulders, but Delis was still not satisfied and insisted that Reed massage her feet.

Lid helped her take off her thin white stockings, and then he found that Delis had been running around outside all this time, and her feet were all blistered. Lid found a needle, burned it red, and helped her prick the blisters, while asking:

"How is it, what have you gained during this period?"

Delis complained unhappily:

"It hurts... It's so hard and tiring. The weather has been getting hot lately, and the sun is always shining brightly. And yet I have to go out to do things. Gains? It's hard to think that there will be no gains after going through this kind of hardship."

Lid smiled and said the second sentence:

"Have you killed anyone?"

Delis was silent for a while, then said, "I guess so."

Zhaochen was not conquered by Yunyang, but was essentially obtained by force. It is difficult to eliminate all the old nobles at once, and they will definitely join forces with other territories to stir up trouble behind the scenes. Delis is in charge of finance, and she has definitely encountered a lot of bad people and bad things. As long as she can hold on, every day here is a progress.

If you want to cut the Gordian knot, you can't do it without courage.

Lid asked Delis about her experiences in detail. Delis also had a lot of complaints, so she spent the whole afternoon pouring them out to Lid:

"Do you know how outrageous that nobleman named Miguel is? He has thousands of servants under his command! The first time I went there, I didn't know anything. I pointed at his nose and cursed him a few times. On the way out, I met the robbers they pretended to be. Six out of ten guards who followed me died. I escaped and received a letter from Miguel in the evening. He said that as long as I exempted them from taxes, he would help "send troops to suppress the bandits."

"And the Sipot family, who spent money to corrupt and control the bureaucrats of Dengxing City, used natural disasters to deceive me into exempting from taxes, while secretly collecting all kinds of heavy taxes from the people, making a fortune. When I rushed over to check the situation, there were people dying everywhere, but the mayor of Dengxing City just laughed and advised me to turn a blind eye.

Eyes, saying they were afraid of causing civil unrest. "

"There are also some dishonest guys in your Yunyang garrison! They set up casinos privately and sold addictive drugs based on their military achievements. When I found out about this, every checkpoint on the three trade routes was rotten. They let them pass in all kinds of ways, turned a blind eye to all kinds of things, and took all kinds of benefits..."

Delis listed all the problems one by one, and Reed listened quietly.

Delis was not throwing the problem to Reed because she had already dealt with these things.

Miguel's family was executed, the Sibot family was uprooted, and the mayor of Dengxing City was hanged. The garrison in Yunyang also went through a round of purges.

Although there is also the Prime Minister of the Interior, Philippine

Lin and the army commander Selaginella contributed a lot, but many things were indeed planned by Delis.

Lid listened to the whole thing. At first, Delis's way of handling things was still immature, but later it became more and more perfect. Most importantly, she had the kind of stubbornness in her character that allowed her to move forward against the general trend. She had a very good ability to withstand pressure and could not be moved by the outside world and push things forward forcefully.

In this era where no one knows which way to go, being able to act tough is a rare talent in itself. After Delis finished complaining, Lid suddenly asked Delis a question:

"I remember when you first came here, you told me that you wanted to learn how to govern the world and change the current situation of the elves. Do you have any new insights now? How can we change the current predicament of the elves?"

Delis was stunned for a moment and replied:

Delis was stunned for a moment and replied:

"I don't know what the future will be like, but now I think we should win the support of the night elves and then use force to carry out reforms; abolish useless noble etiquette, save money, and use it to arm the army..."

Delis talked until late at night.

When it was late at night and the moon rose, Reed looked at Delis and said slowly: "It's almost done. You can hand over your work in the next two days. I will send someone to send you and Uncle Cheng back to the elves in two days." Delis's body stiffened.

Lid smiled and patted her shoulder, saying:

"To be honest, it's still a little immature, but your direction is right. The rest, you can slowly hone it after you go to the elves. Delis asked in disbelief:

"You want me to go back?"

Lid nodded, and then said seriously:

"Yes, because you don't have much time left. But before you leave, I will ask you for something..."

4. Pay the public tax together

Sending Delis back to the elves was a decision that Reed made after thinking for a long time.

In the original plan, Delis would stay in Yongtian for a few years, learn the skills thoroughly, and then consider returning. But the situation in the world is always changing, and Lid has to make this decision in advance.

First of all, the elves are too weak now, and the gap with the dragons is very large. This time, a large number of black elves were sacrificed to barely drive out the dragons, but what about next time? Their situation is similar to that of humans. They are seriously injured, but the dragons are still strong. If the dragons attack the elves again next time, the elves may fall apart.

By that time, the elves will have become vassals of the dragons. What use will it be for Delis to learn more?

Although it was risky, the elves were now facing internal and external troubles. In order to maintain their rule, the high elves showed no mercy to the dark elves. So many dark elves died in this foreign war, and the high elves intensified their exploitation of the remaining dark elves so that they could live the same good life as before.

The truth is clear as day and the situation is critical, so Delis needs to go back to solve it.

In Lid's opinion, if the elves remain weak, the dragons can attack humans without restraint. But if the elves can be more effective, Dong Li will not be able to devote all his forces to the war against humans. The rise of the elves is urgent, and only Delis has the hope of achieving this.

As for Delis's safety, Lid was not worried. Lid himself was also aware of the situation of the elves. If Delis could really put down her status, appease the night elves, and use the night elves as her backing, then those pedantic high elves who only knew how to talk would not be able to pose any threat to her.

To be fair, Delis's governance methods were still immature, but no matter how immature they were, they were much better than those high elves who could only meditate and cultivate their temperament every day. At least she had basic compassion and the courage to kill.

"During this dragon invasion, they plundered a large amount of wealth from humans. If I were Dong Li, my priority next step would be to destroy the elves. On the one hand, it's because the elves are easier to fight than humans, but they are richer than humans; on the other hand, it's to prevent the situation of being robbed again."

Lid sat opposite Delis and said seriously:

"So, while the dragons are still in trouble, the elves must reform immediately. This is about the survival of your entire elf race, there is no time to hesitate. Of course, you can also say that Dong Li may not attack the elves first, but what difference does it make? If the elves don't reform, they will be finished sooner or later."

Delis kicked Lid's calf and said unhappily:

"We are one of the six tribes in the middle, and we don't need you to point fingers at us even if we are exterminated. But after hearing what you said, I will go back.

P Ba-.Shang Ergang said that people came from Benfu here

Want something? Humph, since you have helped me a lot these days, I will make an exception and give you this reward. You can have anything you want.

The key to determining the injury of Gaohu is

We are clear now."

Reed leaned forward and said something in a gentle tone.

Delis's face instantly turned red like a cooked tomato. For a full hour, she said nothing and just stared at Lid. Lid stood up and said to her:

"I don't like to force things. Just think it over carefully." After saying that, Reed strode out.

...

There was still some time before Delis left. After leaving Delis, Reed went to meet Skadi, a great magician of the tenth level.

Skadi was not in a good mood. Although she was not the type who would show her bad mood on her face, based on the existing information, Reed could infer that Skadi must be in a bad mood.

Lid made her a cup of coffee and placed it in front of her, then pulled a chair across from her and sat down, asking;

"I heard that your two [Magic Workshops] in the north were destroyed in the war. Are the people doing magic research there okay?" Skadi took a sip of coffee and looked at Lid.

Lid naturally controlled his gaze, making himself look into Skadi's eyes instead of focusing on the thing on her chest that was so big that it needed to be placed on the table. Skadi looked away first and said in a calm tone:

"Some escaped and returned, but many stayed in the north forever."

Lid smiled and said:

"Then you should understand me now."

When Reed was recruiting a large number of magical talents from the territory, Skadi came personally to stop him.

At that time, Lid told her that magicians always have to go to the battlefield. Although magic is gentler than martial arts, it is ultimately born for destruction. Most of the magic in this world is prepared for fighting, just like a sword, which is made to kill people.
