Chapter 1437: We Could Conquer the Wind Forest Within 10 Days

One beggar’s chicken, one spicy grilled fish, and one 6-inch pizza.

Mag sat across Irina, and watched her munch on a chicken thigh gracefully. He smiled. “I want to buy the land next to the factory, and then build similar factories there to form a big industrial area that could accommodate 20,000 elves. Then, we will build a few more different factories. What do you think about that?”

“If we could let them settle down and earn their living through working at a dignified job, this is quite a good idea,” Irina said after a moment of pondering.

“Then, I will go take a look at the land tomorrow.” Mag nodded. Most of these elven slaves were not powerful, and neither were they good at fighting. Hence, it was obviously impractical to ask them to put on armor and fight against the Wind Forest. They couldn’t even be considered as cannon fodder on the battlefield.

“It’s fine. I will go to the city lord’s castle directly. I am very wealthy now.” Irina shook the space magic bracelet on her wrist. “I was bored on my journey yesterday, so I went back to clear two of their gold vaults. This is overstuffed now, so I gotta make some space for it.”

“You turned back?” Mag was amazed with his wife’s skills and guts. He simply wondered who was that unlucky lord. Not only did all his slaves escape, he lost his gold too.

“That’s good too. I will gradually finalize specific projects in the next few days. Let’s make sure they have a place to stay first.” Mag agreed on the second thought. People were going to be suspicious if he got too deeply involved.

Furthermore, the most important aspect of this matter was whether the city lord’s castle would agree to it. After all, the number of elves was huge this time round.

Irina went upstairs to wash up after dinner, and she quickly fell asleep as she was exhausted.

Mag went to read in the study before returning to his room, and lay on his bed.

He intended to master the sliced beef and ox tongue in chili sauce tonight. He clicked open the shiny experience bag, and all the experiences of making sliced beef and ox tongue in chili sauce went straight into his mind, and were rapidly absorbed and digested by him.

About 10 minutes later, Mag pushed open the door of the test field for the God of Cookery.

“Royal Father.”

At the top of the tower, Sean, who was in his military gear, bowed as he greeted Andre, standing at the window.

“You have just returned from the northwestern border, so have you heard about the elves?” Andre asked as he turned around to Sean. His gaze was still fixed on his dusty armor.

Sean nodded. “I have already heard about it on my way back to the palace. There’s a civil strife in the Wind Forest, and the slaves have rebelled. They are already travelling southward under Irina’s protection.”

“What do you think about this matter?”

“The elves’ constitution must be greatly undermined by this event. What’s even more important is that they’re no longer united. Irina has a unique status among the elves, and she has fallen out with Helena publicly while gaining the support of many lowly elves. After this battle, she already has the capital to go head-on with the Wind Forest,” Sean said to Andre in a low voice. “Your son believes the elves no longer have the capability to be Roth Empire’s ally. Maybe we could invade the Wind Forest with our cavalry during their civil strife now, and then rule over the elves.”

“Oh?” A hint of surprise appeared in Andre’s eyes.

“Royal Father, please forgive your son’s recklessness.” Sean panicked as he realized he had made a wrong comment.

“It’s fine.” Andre lifted his hand, and instead smilingly asked, “How many troops does the Roth Empire need to send to take over the Wind Forest if we are going to invade the elves?”

“If we take advantage of the Wind Forest’s state of anxiety now, we only need 100,000 of the northwest’s elite cavalry along with five 10th-tier knights and five great magic casters to launch a surprise attack on the Wind Forest. We could conquer the Wind Forest within 10 days,” Sean replied after a moment of pondering.

“Haha. You’ve vastly underestimated the Wind Forest.” Andre chuckled, but he was looking at Sean with an increasingly satisfied gaze. “The demons sent 300,000 allied troops to invade the Wind Forest then, and yet they couldn’t even reach the Tree of Life. Although the elven queen has gone into seclusion, you shouldn’t think she is already dead.”

Sean lowered his head, and humbly replied, “Yes. I didn’t consider every aspect well enough.”

Andre turned back to look at the starry sky out again before he suddenly chuckled. “But that is possible if we double the number of people.”

Sean suddenly looked up with a gleam in his eyes.

“However, why should we act against them? They’re simply a bunch of people who have learned a tiny bit of our stuff. We will let them entertain themselves in normal times, and use them as cannon fodder when we need them. Isn’t that better?”

“Yes,” Sean replied thoughtfully, and nodded respectfully.

Andre lifted his hand. “You’re exhausted too. Go back and rest now. When you’re free a couple of days later, go to Chaos City to fetch Vanessa.”

“Vanessa is in Chaos City?” Sean was a little taken aback, but he soon regained his composure and agreed respectfully. Then, he left this tower that was on par with the Magus Tower.

“Sean does indeed resemble me more, but he’s still too overconfident and needs to be polished,” Andre said softly after Sean left as if he was murmuring to himself or talking to a person.

***

The president’s office at the top of Magus Tower.

“What do you think I should do now, President? This b*tch Helena didn’t listen to me, and now Irina has already gained 20,000 elves, and is no longer fighting alone.” Josh smashed the crystal glass in his hand in a fit of anger as he talked to Richard, who was sitting across him. His complexion was sickly pale, and his eyes were bloodshot as if he hadn’t had a good rest.

Richard cleared the crystal shards on the floor with a wave of his hand, and then said to Josh in a low voice, “Your Highness, you should remain calm, especially during a time like this. Otherwise, how are you ever going to achieve anything great? You must remember that you’re the one who is going to be the king of the Roth Empire. How could you lose your cool over a woman?”

“But I feel indignant! Why does Alex, that useless freak, get to have her? I’m obviously better than him in every aspect, but she kept slipping through my fingers! And I have already maimed him!” Josh said through clenched teeth with indignation written all over his face.

Richard snapped his fingers, and a water droplet flew toward Josh. It exploded on his face just as if a glass of cold water was splashed over his face. He said in an icy cold voice, “Your Highness, you have to know that everything in this world will be yours if you become the king of the Roth Empire. If you fail, you will not only lose Irina, but everything you own now, including your life. And people like us who are following you have pinned our hopes and lives all onto you.”

Josh shivered after being splashed by the cold water. He suddenly became sober after looking at the somber Richard. He quickly stood up and bowed respectfully like a student as he sincerely said, “Master, your student knows his mistake now.”
