Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Chapter 641 Northern Continent

Summer, near the village outside Oak City.

Lawrence wore a straw hat and sat in the shade of the tree, his eyes fixed on the slowly rotating windmill near Oak Mountain.

This place used to be called Ug Mountain, where a group of Ug people lived.

Now almost no one remembers this.

This was the hottest time of the year, and Lawrence did not lie on the mat and eat shaved ice like the women and elves at home, nor did he take a bath in the pool and take a nap until the evening.

Out of care for the women and children at home, Lawrence did not call them to come to work together.

Following him were a little elf boy and girl wearing linen vests and loose trousers.

The two elf children were a rare pair of twins, at the cost of neither of them having witchcraft power.

Or twins are a kind of witchcraft talent, most elves cannot give birth to twins, let alone keep twins alive and healthy.

Compared with other elf children, Aruchu and Kadar are more lively, with vigorous energy and desire to learn.

Lawrence took in their mother Daphne, and also successfully took over the qualification to educate the children from a group of elf widows.

"Master, what are we doing today?" Two elf children aged five or six sat on the ground catching insects and playing. Soon the elder brother felt bored and asked what else to do.

Lawrence took out a handful of candies from his pocket, took out three, handed them to the brother and sister, and peeled off the candy and ate one himself.

The two children quickly blocked their mouths and began to happily shout candy without saying anything.

At this time, Lawrence talked about today's work on his own.

"Autumn is coming soon. In a few days, summer grain will be ripe. After drying, some will be stored and some will be processed into flour. At that time, they will be taken to several windmills outside for processing."

"Wooden things are always easy to break. In previous years, several knowledgeable people were responsible for this matter."

"This year, those who know this technology are sent to support Snow Mountain Castle, or are responsible for things in Ironforge."

"So let's take a break. After it cools down a little, we will go to the windmill to take a look. I will check things inside, and you can just stay outside and don't let others get close."

"Yes, master!"

The two elves agreed easily.

Lawrence did not count on the two children. Maintenance and inspection still need professional assistance.

The main purpose of bringing two children is to make them familiar with the situation here, and at the same time strengthen the understanding of the next generation.

A warm breeze blew from a distance, making people feel the sultry summer.

Not long after, another cool breeze blew on the body, evaporating the sweat on the body, and making people feel the refreshing mountain breeze brought by the forest on the mountain.

It was so capricious in the mountains. The winds in different environments and regions were different. Only when the strong wind passed and all the winds in the forests on the ground blew in one direction did it feel like a gust of wind.

Lawrence tasted the fruit candy in his mouth. The two elf children had already eaten up the candy first, and were bored touching the cool soil and grass on the ground.

Not long after, Lawrence reminded them, "Stop playing, your mother is coming."

The two elf children who were destroying the grass roots with their fingers and branches looked left and right quickly.

An elf woman wearing a wide-brimmed lady's hat, a blue skirt, and a basket came from the path in Oak City.

Even in the Ice Land and Oak City, this kind of blue dress is rare. Most people's clothes are still various pure woolen clothes, or washed white linen.

Lawrence was only concerned with solving the problem of eating. His demand for clothes was relatively small. In addition, he lacked corresponding knowledge, resulting in the printing and dyeing technology being at a very low level, and he needed to continue to learn from the outside world.

Daphne walked for two minutes to get to the tree from the path. She smiled when she saw Lawrence and the two children sitting under the tree.

"Master, I brought fruits and food."

Daphne came over and knelt beside Lawrence, taking out the things in the basket one by one.

After laying a towel blanket, the washed fruits were placed one by one, as well as dried meat and the indispensable sweet noodle sauce and jam.

Oak City has always been uniquely advanced in terms of food and drink.

Lawrence took a peach and took a bite, then greeted the two elves:

"Go wash your hands and face first, and come back to eat together after washing."

"Yes! Master!" The two little guys quickly stood up with their hands and feet, bowed, and ran to the nearby river to wash their hands.

After the two children left, Lawrence pulled Daphne, who was not in the breeding period, over with one hand.

Daphne was not in heat, and like most elves, she lacked the ambition to create the next generation.

That kind of ambition is not something that ordinary elves are qualified to have, it is the qualification and honor that only the Elf Queen has.

If giving birth is a privilege, then giving birth to fewer people is even more of a privilege.

Similar to the decrease in the number of newborns, the fewer people give birth, the more privileges the fertile group enjoys.

The selfish nature of the elves and witches has led to problems in natural evolution.

The higher the level of elf women, the stronger their desire to give birth, but the fewer they are.

The low-level elf women, who are the most numerous, have a low desire to give birth and lack the appeal to male wizards.

The elven wizards were bound by the queen's rule, lacking subjective ability, and were placed in various remote villages.

The invasion of foreign tribes broke the queen's rule, and when Lawrence had ten times more elves than the elven queen, the elven queen could only give birth to children.

Daphne was still bound by the old times. She didn't like Lawrence's touch and closeness, but she didn't hate it either.

The lack of lust does not mean that there are no other desires. Whether it is living, eating, taking care of children, not being able to fight, fear of pain, fear of death, rationality, etc., Daphne chose to cooperate.

Daphne pouted and wanted to kiss Lawrence's cheek.

Lawrence raised his hand to stop him, "The children are here, you don't have to please me specially, you can live safely by relying on labor here."

After hearing this, Daphne took the initiative to kiss Lawrence's lips.

Lawrence felt Daphne's intentions.

Don't want to work!

Don't want to work!

And want to wear the best, eat the best, enjoy the best, and don't have to do dangerous things desperately!

Stella's elf self-improvement plan was not only opposed by noble elves such as Difkris and the Queen, but also by ordinary elves such as Daphne.

If you count the elf wizards who can fight like Will and Alondo, basically no elves will support this elf independence plan.

Only the next generation of elves will take up the banner again because of treatment and concept issues.

But by then, they will all be half-elves.

Not wanting to think about things that are too far away, Lawrence quickly took Daphne to the nearby mill house, and in the creaking sound of gear friction, he gave this lazy elf a big boost!

From Daphne's attitude, we can already see the general acceptance of the elves here.

There is a premise here, which is limited to places with rich material life and friendly to them.

This is not easy.

No one will be nice to someone for no reason.

Most elves are beautiful.

But most humans also have to eat.

Beautiful women and crafts will soon be ruined in the hands of barbarians.

Except for Lawrence, men in all countries in this world, including the elves themselves, are like this.

Although the elves outside will not be insulted if they fall into the hands of elf men, they will definitely starve and freeze, and may not be able to survive.

It is difficult to compare which one is worse.

At least it is good here in Lawrence, which is the collective cognition of the elves.

After Lawrence repaired several problematic windmills, it was already dusk, so he took the two children home.

Daphne had gone home to take a bath and rest a long time ago. Lawrence did not have high requirements for such women. As long as they could take care of the children, eat, take a bath and go to the toilet by themselves, and don't cause trouble, it would be fine.

Lawrence only planned to use his life to do something meaningful to society, which did not include copying the ideas of the future era, especially the ideas of women.

Civilization is not a fixed thing. The ideas of a period would be against the sky in the decades before and after, not to mention the ancient times that may be thousands of years.

Lawrence's idea is very simple, just to live a comfortable life.

This is the pursuit from beginning to end. There are people to play with, things to do, and enough food and clothes. Now all the wishes have been met, and the rest is to protect this family and country with all my heart and responsibility.

The family can eat and bathe together, chat, play cards, watch singing and dancing performances, and find something to do for a day.

Most witches, especially elven women, have a strange mentality of wanting to be protected but not wanting to get along with others.

If the witches were allowed to choose, hundreds of witches would not be able to say what they want.

Their motivation will only come after comparison, and the most obvious one is Oroda, who has been thinking about this place since she came here.

Cassandra also betrayed her father and family after the family had problems, and decisively came to join her brother-in-law.

Deren is similar. After living a good life, he has the motivation and subjective idea of ​​not living a savage life.

Witches have all kinds of ideas. No matter what they say, their real ideas and judgment are very realistic.

They are not good marriage partners for most people. Witches will take the initiative only once or a few times in their lives. It is difficult to make them obey without threats and violence.

They all have strong destructive power. Once they have children, they will become more dangerous, and at the same time, they will make the man unable to give birth to offspring.

The normal fate of such creatures should be to be killed.

Except for Lawrence and some wizards, it is difficult for normal men to tolerate the existence of such evil.

Cassandra took out a book while chatting after dinner.

"This is a book brought by Aize from the foreign continent. There are wizards in Aize's country, but they were burned to death a long time ago. After discovering witches, they pierced their stomachs and burned them to death with fire."

"How cruel." Sophia drank tea and expressed her casual and relaxed feelings.

Lawrence has been busy with agriculture and fields these days, and has not learned about the outside world with the foreigner Aize.

"I remember that Aize's country is in the southeast continent, which is also the direction where the Dawn Church fled."

"Then we should be the northern continent here, and they are the southern continent?"

Emerald added: "The territory of the Southern Kingdom is like a leg, and the Western Kingdom we control now is like the place where the leg is broken. If we control all the places in the Southern Kingdom, we can know whether there are people in the south."

Lawrence didn't want to make so much trouble, "Then tell the news to the countries of the Star Alliance, and also tell the nobles of Durila and Deco Kingdom that there are still large tracts of land waiting to be developed outside the Star Kingdom."

Sophia smiled and narrowed her eyes.

"Master is right, as long as we control the production technology of artillery and iron boats, we can make money lying down. After those greedy people outside fall into the sea, the rest of the people will know to buy artillery and big ships!"

Lawrence didn't think so. Sophia's words made him feel like he was calculating others all day long.

"Sophia, you should say less and help Rastana relieve the blocked milk. Athena has eaten less recently, you can help her eat some."

Sophia, who was happy, suddenly drooped her face and looked at Rastana sitting on the side.

Rastana's figure is so good that her daughter Athena can't finish eating every day.

And since she was three months old, she has gradually liked to eat complementary food.

From eggs to vegetables, from sugar to meat.

Now Athena, who is over one year old, must eat meat at every meal to stop crying.

Even if her teeth are not fully grown, she can swallow some soft meat sauce and minced meat.

Other children are not so fierce, including Edward, the youngest son who is still breastfeeding in the queen's arms for two or three months, who is drinking milk honestly.

After Athena stopped drinking milk, Lawrence consciously let Sofia absorb the excess nutrition.

Although Sofia looked unwilling, she walked over and sat down under Lawrence's gaze and did it obediently.

Lawrence stopped looking at Sofia. Among the women in the family, Sofia has the worst physical fitness and the worst mind. If she is not disciplined, not only will her body grow fat, but her mind will also grow crooked.

Sariel and others couldn't help looking at Sofia. Obviously, no matter how many times this happened, it was still very strange.

This kind of thing should have been between Lawrence and the child, but both the child and Lawrence preferred to drink milk and juice.

Lawrence talked about things related to the others.

"Summer is only a few days away. After the summer crops are harvested in a few days, we will go to Snow Mountain Castle. We will celebrate the New Year there this year."

"You don't need to carry too many things. There are all the necessary things there. The roads have been reinforced and improved. It will be smoother this year."

Lawrence quickly arranged things for the next period of time. The women in the family didn't participate in the busy farming work in summer and autumn anyway, so it would be better to send them to Snow Mountain Castle quickly to avoid getting in the way here.

The witches had no objection to this. Snow Mountain Castle was beautiful with mountains and rivers, which was much more suitable than here, and the place was larger and had more rooms. (End of this chapter)
