Chapter 159 One Month Later
A dense jungle.

The place where this jungle is located is still in the eastern wilderness.

If someone had been here a few months ago, they would be able to clearly notice something was wrong if they came here again.

The vegetation is denser and taller than before.

Originally the trees here were darker, but now under the sunlight, this woodland feels like a dream area.

There are lush green plants and tall trees, and various small animals running around between the trees.

The breeze blows through it, and you can even smell the fragrance of plants.

I don't know when such an area appeared in the Eastern Wilderness.

There was a rustling sound among the woods, and more than a dozen figures rushed out and fell to the ground.

These dozen or so figures were elves, but they looked different from what Cana had seen before.

This group of elves now looked even more miserable.

No matter what kind of elves they are, they have a natural pursuit of elegance and neat appearance.

Such a miserable appearance is really inconsistent with their character, and is even more miserable than the last time they had a shipwreck.

Miguelsi panted and slumped down against a tree.

The expression on his face revealed irritation, sadness and fear.

"What should I do? That monster is too strong. What should I do now?" As he spoke, his tone even had a hint of crying.

Even his expression couldn't help but become a little desperate.

"Woooo..."

At this time, the two female elves knelt on the ground, tears streaming from their eyes.

Maxim, the leader, had a heavy expression on his face, but he was still much stronger than the others who were filled with decadence and despair.

He reached up to support his face, his palms covering his face.

All I could hear was a faint murmur: "What should I do...what should I do now? Is there no other way?"

Hiswanta looked at everyone present, and his expression did not seem very calm.

Looking at Maxim who was forcing himself to think, he couldn't help but say: "Maybe, maybe we are too impatient."

All the elves present were silent at this statement.

A young elf, holding a bow and arrow, his clothes still tattered, said dejectedly, "Perhaps from the very beginning, we couldn't succeed. We were too reckless and overestimated our abilities."

A decadent word that should not come from the mouth of an elf appeared here.

However, none of the elves present even objected. Instead, they were affected and became even more depressed.

"Alright! There's nothing wrong with what we did; we just did it wrong. We were reckless!"

Maxim turned around and shouted loudly to the elves behind him.

He seemed to feel a little excited again and calmed himself down.

"Let's think of another way. We can't just give up like this."

Having said that, he couldn't help but sigh silently.

If there was a way, they would have done it long ago. Isn't the reason they are so decadent and desperate because they have tried all the methods they can?
They brought, at great cost, for so long, their only hope.

The seed of the tree of life was lost from their hands.

Without this thing, their goals and dreams would be impossible to achieve.

"We are also too arrogant." Hiswanta couldn't help but add.

This sentence seemed to wake Maxim up.

He couldn't help but look up.

"Maybe, maybe we still have a chance."

Hearing the leader's words, the other elves raised their heads and looked at him.

Even Hiswanta stared at him, eager to get a workable plan from him instead of despair.

Maxim opened his mouth, but for some reason, he was unable to say anything for a moment.

Looking at everyone's gaze, he finally spoke out the words that were stuck in his mouth.

"Those humans, remember?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present remembered.

Recalling the first setback they encountered when they just landed, they encountered a group of powerful humans who clashed with them.

"That group of humans? What can they do? And there is no way they can help us." Miguelsi said directly.

After all, he was the most seriously injured in that battle, and his pride was shattered.

Elves aren't stupid, they're just arrogant.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that in such a conflict, there is no way that group of humans could help them.

If you put yourself in their shoes, you will find that they would not help others in this situation.

"This is crazy! How is this possible? Those humans are no stronger than us." A female elf retorted.

In that conflict, they were fully confident that they could keep Kana and the others.

It was only because of their leader Maxim and the fact that they were indeed in the wrong that they did not commit such a shameful act.

Pride prevents them from doing things that would damage their own dignity.

Just because they haven't done it doesn't mean they can't do it. There are only a few strong humans in that group, and they see it clearly.

It's not much better than them, so it's meaningless.

Hearing this, Maxim didn't know how to respond.

Because he himself felt that his sudden thoughts were a bit ridiculous.

But he couldn't help but think of what Kana said to him when he left.

Isn't it time to go to Him when you have put aside your useless pride?

Their useless arrogance was shattered, and they were filled with a desperate sense of powerlessness. There was no time more in line with what Kana said than now.

That's why he can say things that sound ridiculous, so ridiculous that he himself has no confidence and feels like he has lost his mind.

But when this thought came up, it began to circle around in his mind and he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he tried.

“Let’s try, we’ve reached the end of our rope, haven’t we?

And... he knows your—experience.”

Hiswanta looked at Maxim and said softly.

In order to increase the credibility of his words, Kana created a slightly mysterious personality.

Maxim is an outcast.

Although this is not a secret within his team and among some elves.

But it would be very strange for humans thousands of miles away to know about it.

It was precisely because of this that Maxim was able to think of Kana when he really couldn't find any other solution.

After hearing what Shiswanta said, Miguelsi opened his mouth and was about to say something.

The words came to his lips but he closed them again.

Yes, what else can we do now?

Miguelsi shook his head, leaned against a big tree and looked at the sky.

Hiswanta's words were straightforward enough, and Maxim looked at the crowd and saw no objection.

"In that case, let's give it a try."

……

early morning.

【Chocobo Breeding Field】

Cana looked at the blue and white Chocobo in front of him.

This is his mount - Yuhua.

At this time, Kana was using the special brush in his hand to clean the tough and beautiful feathers on Yuhua's body.

When Yuhua brushed against its thick neck and chest feathers, she giggled in comfort.

He bent his head down and rubbed it against Cana's.

"Okay, now you feel comfortable." Kana smiled and patted Yuhua's neck.

Yuhua shook comfortably and shook off some feathers.

"Eat it." Handing a fruit to Yuhua, Kana patted it again and turned to leave.

A month has passed since the first meeting.

During this month, the night watchmen were very busy. They began to take action according to the structure and specific details discussed in the meeting.

Various departments were established, and various individuals were given leadership rights, and this responsibility followed.

Although it was busy and a bit chaotic, it at least gave the gathering place a surge of vitality.

This surge of energy also inspired the refugees and helped them recover.

The two villages have become one.

Don't underestimate the labor of the night watchmen. Given their endless physical strength, the town can be built very quickly.

The original gap between the two villages was also filled, and several bridges connected the two sides.

The entire town, half-surrounded by the lake, expanded outwards. At this point, the town could truly be called a construction site.

Fortunately, many of the refugees they brought in had experience in this area.

Therefore, the planning of the entire town is quite reasonable and regular.

Once completed, this town will undoubtedly become the headquarters of the Night's Watch.

At least that's the case at this stage.

At this time, a cry was heard in the sky, and Kana, who was standing at the edge of the field outside the town, looked up.

The pterosaur flew down from the sky and landed smoothly beside it, and Grayfang jumped down from it.

As the only air unit among the Night's Watch.

Gray Fang is the freest one, and his temporary position is as a member of the Soul Keeper.

As for those who hold the same position as him, there are two other sisters, Lelia and Abis.

"Boss, I'm going home to pull my brothers."

Hearing this, Kana briefly translated it in his mind and asked, "Do you mean you want to go back to the tribe and gather some people?"

Gray Fang nodded. In the tribe, there were people like him who yearned for the outside world.

He felt that there were a few who might be qualified to become Night Watchmen.

Hearing this, Kana nodded and said, "No problem, go ahead and explore more on the way."

Anyway, Gray Fang can fly, so when he passes by, he can light up the map over there.

Hearing Kana's agreement, Grayfang smiled and gave a thumbs up, then got on the pterosaur and left.

Watching Grayfang leave on a pterosaur.

"The Air Force is great."

Kana also hopes to have some air forces at his disposal, which would be excellent for the Night's Watch, whether for rapid support or reconnaissance.

The same flying unit means much more to Kana and his team than to others.

After all, whether it's the [Chat Channel] or the [Map], once equipped with air units, the characteristics of these two systems can be brought into full play.

What a pity, he is the only one among the Night's Watch.

Having flying units is extremely advantageous.

For example, the giant bats of the Blood Clan Royal Court. Although these things look weak, they are very useful.

It is almost certain that the most hated blood clan soldiers in the Kingdom of Cohen are these big flying bats, which have caused them a lot of trouble.

It’s not that Kana has no way to train air units, it’s just that he can’t do it at this stage.

For example, the simplest way is that Kana can create a new secondary profession, which is the profession [Beast Tamer] that he is currently employed in and used to tame those chocobos.

With the addition of this profession, the Night's Watch will almost never lack any animal power, and can also tame various wild beasts and monsters to become their assistants and partners.

It can even be used for meat farming to enrich their diet and provide them with a stable source of meat.

Naturally, it can also be used to find some large air units, and then use them to form an air force after training.

It's a pity that he is the only one now, and Kana can't spend a lot of time looking for and training him.

A flying creature that can carry people is countless times wilder than a chocobo.

They had trained Chocobos before only because it was really necessary, as they had almost no means of transportation at that time.

Not to mention that in the Eastern Wilds, if there were Chocobos, I don’t know how much time could be saved.

Pity.

Compared to [Beast Taming].

[Forging], [Pharmaceutical Making], [Farming], the priority of these three items is too high.

As I walked and thought, I passed by fields that had been recently cultivated.

In the fields, you can even see dark clouds sprinkling rain.

The ones who control these dark clouds to water are halflings.

In many newly cultivated fields, you can even see crops growing.

You can also see large areas of herbal medicine plantations on the hillside at the end of the view.

It can be said that to the east of the town is a plantation that is several times larger than the entire town, and it is still expanding outward.

And near the edge of the woods, there is a large area used for planting various trees and plants.

This is the most important source of logistical support for the Night's Watch.

There are 366 Halflings, 200 of whom are employed as the [Farming] secondary profession.

There are also 100 humans, totaling 300 professional farmers.

These people do not have much talent and ability in combat, nor do they have much talent in other professions.

So I took up this side job and came here to farm.

Professional farmers, with the support of the system.

Various grains, herbs and fruits will be produced continuously.

And the promise of a fruitful future is already emerging.

When these farmers' secondary occupation levels are raised, they will be able to grow more rare crops that cannot be grown freely.

Walking through the endless newly cultivated fields, Kana heard the orderly shouting from afar.

On another relatively flat hillside, you can see a large camp built with tents.

From a distance, you can see that there are many people receiving training.

【Training Camp】

A department formed after the meeting due to actual circumstances, specifically used to train the Night Watchmen and train them in basic combat skills.

The person in charge of the training is Nado, the instructor of the Novice Village in the game and also the knight professional mentor of the Novice Village.

The first time Cana met the Earl was in his tent. He was also the captain of the Earl's guard.

Now, I naturally became the person in charge of the [Training Camp].

At this time, a prompt sound came from the chat box.

Kana opened the chat box and checked it.

Kana's chat box has many more [Team Channels] than others.

After all, he is the [Leader] and he has joined almost all the work channels.

【"Legion" Channel】

[Blake: Among the new members of the Night's Watch this month, there are several former scout captains of the Kingdom of Cohen.

I want to recruit them, have them join the Night Watch, have them serve as captains, and be responsible for training in this area.

[Eichard: How about splitting it between us? We're also in need of someone like that on our team.]

George: Sir Richard, we need them more than you, don't we? Once our training is effective, we can send some to help you with the training.

Kana looked at the information in this channel.

The members of this channel are all military leaders.

Originally, the three military departments were to be separated and all belonged to the parliament, but when they were actually put into operation, it was found to be very troublesome.

It's not efficient and doesn't make much sense.

Therefore, a direct organization [Legion] was rebuilt to manage all military departments.

Including the [Training Camp] you saw before, all of them belong to it.

And Blake naturally became the head of the Legion.

George became the head of the Night Watch.

Ichard became the head of the Light Guardians.

[Nado: Why not assign me here as an instructor?]

Looking at the information above, Kana did not interrupt.

After all, each department has just been established and is in urgent need of staff.

The Night's Watchmen are now in a state of high energy.

This situation occurs not only in the military but also in other areas, where people with certain abilities are sought after by all parties.

The Night's Watch is really short of capable people.

The main reason is the constructed framework, which leads to a very large stall.

Those who have been following Kana all know that the Night Watch is developing very rapidly.

After checking this channel, Kana had to check the current situation on other channels.

【"Big Library" Channel】

[Popot: Are there so few people with spiritual talents? Can we cultivate them?]

[Pru: You mean, training those first-level people?]

All spellcasters were forced to be selected from those of extremely low levels, preferably children with a little talent.

Seeing that all departments were running on the right track, Kana nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, the patrol team sent a message.
