(New book ~)
As a world with a backward civilization, what was the most important thing to survive? Naturally, it was food.
Even with modern technology, some poor countries might not be able to eat. Of course, in some developed countries, the problem of food and clothing had been solved.
In this civilization that was similar to the Middle Ages, which relied entirely on farming and grazing, the biggest problem for ordinary civilians was the problem of food and clothing. They would never consider anything else when they did not have enough to eat.
This was especially true in this world where there were many races. All kinds of small-scale wars had never stopped. From time to time, there would be interracial wars. It was really difficult to survive. For most of the low-class civilians, they would at most wear tattered clothes and eat black bread. Those who could eat a mouthful of white bread were considered well-off families.
From Anaya's words, Qian Xun could tell that even the elves were the same. Humans were an agricultural civilization after all, and they relied on farming to feed their huge population. Although the orcs 'agricultural standards were not as good as humans, they also cultivated and relied on hunting and grazing. However, the elves were different. As a race that lived in the forest and loved the forest, it was absolutely impossible for them to cut down trees and farm.
Fortunately, the elves 'body structure was slightly different from that of humans and orcs. Under normal circumstances, they could survive by eating fruits. However, no matter how different their body structure was, they still needed some meat and coarse grain. Although the elven kingdom was relatively closed, they would still trade with humans and orcs for some necessities of life.
In winter, it was the same for all races. Those who lived at the bottom of the social ladder would live the most miserable lives. It was normal for them to lack food and clothing.
In fact, Qian Xun felt that this was also the reason why the elf race could not develop. With their lifestyle, how could they afford to raise a large population?
It would be strange if they could compete with humans in this aspect.
Although magic did exist in this world, mages were only a small part of the entire population. Their precious magic power could not be used for research or for the people's livelihood. Anyway, the mages were living a good life. Who would care about the lives of the lower class civilians?
It was true that magic could achieve many of the effects of modern technology, but only the nobles could enjoy the convenience of magic. It was a luxury that required a huge investment of resources, and ordinary civilians could not even dream of it.
A technological civilization was a collective evolution, while a magical civilization was an individual evolution. If he was just an ordinary person, it would be best to live in a world of technology. If he was really a genius, it would be better to live in a magical world, because in a magical world, they could do whatever they wanted and become more extraordinary.
"Anya…"
Qian Xun pondered for a long time before she finally spoke.
"Please speak, Your Excellency Galakrond.”
Anaya tried her best to maintain her modesty and spoke in a gentle voice that sounded like an oriole leaving the valley.
"Go and find some soldiers from your elves to help me manage the security of the city. If there are any troublemakers, kill them immediately. As for the food problem…I'll think of a way.”
Qian Xun closed her eyes as she spoke.
Anaya's heart skipped a beat, and she said hesitantly,"…This…I need to discuss this with Her Majesty the Queen. I can't make the decision regarding the transfer of soldiers.”
Her entire body tensed up, afraid that her words would upset Qian Xun.
"You can go…"
However, Qian Xun's answer stunned Anaya. She did not expect this dragon to be so easy to talk to. However, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be true. The younger the dragon, the more irritable and unreasonable it was. On the other hand, the older dragons were more gentle. As long as one did not cross their bottom line, the older dragons would rarely get angry.
Of course, most of the old dragons spent their time in deep sleep, and it was rare to see them active.
"Then I'll take my leave, Your Majesty…I'll return to the Silvermoon Kingdom and speak to Her Majesty the Queen.”
As Anaya spoke, she slowly bowed and retreated. As for Qian Xun's words about him finding a way to get the food, Anaya did not ask any further. She even felt that Qian Xun was just saying it half-heartedly. In the end, she would probably kill the civilians to reduce the consumption of food.
Even though the elves would not be able to bear to kill their captives like this, as a general, Anaya would not allow herself to be too merciful. If the great dragon in front of her really gave this order, she would have no choice but to obey.
At this moment, Qian Xun was thinking of returning to Earth to think of a solution. Although a city with a population of 200,000 was considered a very large city here, and it was very difficult to support it, 200,000 people were really nothing in the eyes of modern civilization...
Moreover, the possibility of 200,000 people remaining in the city was very small. Qian Xun's spell had probably killed many people. As for whether the remaining people would hate him, Qian Xun did not care. They were all captives anyway. If they dared to disobey, he would just kill them.
With a portion of the thoughts of a giant dragon, Qian Xun no longer cared about the lives of humans.
After Anaya left, Matchis carefully looked at the dragon lying on the gold coin mountain with its eyes closed. He hesitated.
"If you have something to say, say it, Matches…"
Suddenly, the dragon opened its mouth to speak, giving Matchis a fright. He did not dare to hide it and quickly said,"…Great Master, the elves 'initial plan was to occupy the city effortlessly after you took it.”
"Are you trying to say that the elves want to use me?”
"No, no, no. Great Master, you're so wise. How could the foolish elves dare to use you?”
Matches said with a flattering smile.
"Hmph, if I were the queen, I would also make the same choice. To be able to occupy a strategic location without expending a single bit of manpower, this deal is a huge profit no matter how you look at it…But it's different now. This Dragon City has already been occupied by me, and the elves have been strangled by me. At the same time, my existence has also blocked the spying of other factions for them. If the queen is really smart, she won't reject my request. You might even have to pay a higher price."
Qian Xun suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Matches. Being stared at by that pair of cruel and cold vertical pupils, Matches could only feel a cold fear rising from the depths of his body.
He lowered his head deeply to express his humility, but he was terrified in his heart.
God of Magic above, the giant dragon had actually started to play tricks and political means. This was simply like those old fox politicians of the human race. He actually knew how to use power to force the elves to send troops to defend the city for him!
The elves could not refuse. Who knew if the dragon would suddenly ally with humans or orcs to exterminate the elves? Moreover, as the dragon had said, he occupied an important pass and became the gateway of the elves. Therefore, as long as the queen of the elves was not stupid, she must fully support him as the master of this city!
