Chapter 819 - 819 66 The Bizarre Ha's Strategy

819: Chapter 66, The Bizarre Ha’s Strategy 819: Chapter 66, The Bizarre Ha’s Strategy Elf Forest, with news of the outbreak of continental war spreading, the three elven kings gathered together once again.

In the eyes of the outside world, the Elf Race, divided into three kingdoms, was already full of contradictions, each viewing the other as heresy, wishing nothing more than to bring about each other’s demise.

If it were not for the pressure of the Human Race, they would have erupted into civil war long ago.

After all, who could tolerate the existence of heretics?

The Forest Elves, the Prairie Elves, and the Dark Night Elf clans had each established their own independent nations precisely because of differing ideologies.

However, the atmosphere within the great hall was completely different from what everyone had imagined.

The three elven kings, who hadn’t seen each other for a long time, chatted like good sisters, without any sense of reluctance to unite due to the situation.

“Big sister, things look grim!

The ambition of the Human Race is even greater than we anticipated, and the frequency of starting continental wars is increasing.

Looking back at the history of continental wars over the last ten thousand years, aside from those foolish and filthy Orcs, the most conflicts have been instigated by the Human Race.

The most domineering act was implementing the ‘Five-Fold Superiority Bill,’ which is simply about targeting whoever is strong without any semblance of reason.

Back then, to avoid the oppression of the Human Race, we had no choice but to take the Sage’s advice and split up due to incompatible ideologies.

But one can only hide for so long, and not forever.

Given the rate at which the Human Race’s power is expanding, it might not be long before they set their sights on us.”

The Night Elf Queen said with worry in her voice.

The Elf Race, with a legacy dating from ancient times up to the present, had withstood countless trials and tribulations, but had never felt such urgency as they do now.

Even during the most tyrannical rule of the Orc Empire over the Continent, the Elf Race could still defy them.

But when the era transitioned to the Human Race, things changed.

The Human Race may not be as tyrannical, but they do know how to play politics!

The Orc Empire, at its peak, seemed strong, but the Elf Race only had to face one Royal Family within it, never needing to give in.

The Human Race may not be as aggressive, and in the past few hundred years, they have not actively invaded the Elf Race, but the threat they pose is even greater.

Seeing the various clans of the Continent decline under the oppression of the Human Race, one cannot help but feel unrest.

“Don’t worry, little sister.

The Sage once divined that when the Human Race completely overpowers all the clans of the Continent, it will be the beginning of their own civil strife.

Our Elven tribe, located in a remote area, is in the best geographical position for hiding.

As long as a superpower doesn’t emerge among the humans of the Northern Continent, they pose no threat to us.

The Human Race is very selfish.

The kingdoms in The Southern Region and The Central Region won’t dispatch their armies long distances for no reason.

What benefit is it to them to help the northern states attack us?

Moreover, we aren’t easy to bully.

We’ve always shown weakness to the enemy, but that doesn’t mean we are truly weak!

If it really comes to a fight for survival, we can completely drag a few Human Empires down with us.

Would they be willing to perish alongside us?”

The Forest Elf Queen said with a fierce tone.

The ability of the Elf Race to inherit their legacy from ancient times to the present is not because of a “love for peace,” but because of their terrifying strength.

With outstanding cultivation talent and long lifespans, what the Elven tribe lacks the least are masters.

Sorcerers and Great Sorcerers, rarely seen by outsiders, are not exactly commonplace in the Elf Race, but they are certainly not in short supply.

Almost every Elf Village has the presence of a Sorcerer.

Without the need for much effort, as long as one lives long enough, they can become a master through sheer persistence.

The only regret is their low birth rate.

Their current strength is built upon long-term accumulation.

Once their vitality is depleted in a war, it may take hundreds of years to recover.

For the Elf Race, many times even if they achieve victory on the battlefield, it is a strategic failure.

Outsiders only see the Elf Race coasting through successive Continental wars, mistaking it for a loss of fighting spirit, not realizing that for a species with low fertility, this is a necessary choice.

For the Elf Race, it is very straightforward to participate in a Continental war.

Sweeping the entire Northern Continent would not be difficult, but the challenge lies in the aftermath!

In theory, if the Elf Race were willing to pay any price and unite with all the clans of the Continent, they would have a complete opportunity to dethrone the Human Race from the position of overlord.

But after pulling down the Human Race, they would see other species rise, while themselves benefiting not at all.

With a population of only a few million, no amount of land would be of any significance to them.

A hundred and eighty years later, as other species replenish their vigor and advance even further, it’s just the Elf Race still licking their wounds.

Before they can recover, a new overlord of the Continent would emerge.

Continue to unite with the clans of the Continent to pull down the new overlord?

Even if they could win every war, they would become weaker with each fight.

It wouldn’t be long before they’ve expended all of their inherited wealth.

Unable to afford a war of attrition, they must rely on military deterrence.

From the current situation, the strategy of the Elven tribe has been successful.

Many Human Kingdoms have had conflicts with the Elf Race, but none have dared to invade the Elf Race in the past few hundred years.

The last one to do so has turned into mud, nourishing all things within the Elf Forest.

The current Elf Race is like a rich second-generation heir limited in their own ability but having inherited a great fortune.

As long as they don’t go out causing trouble, they can live comfortably.
