Elf Lord, intelligence updated daily.

Chapter 60 Annual Intelligence
Loren prepared many red envelopes.

Everyone in the castle has a job.

"Everyone, after enjoying the delicious food, I have prepared a year-end lucky draw for you."

There are 73 red envelopes in this box.

Knights, centaurs, and servants in the castle can all participate in the lottery.

You can exchange the coupons in the red envelope for gold coins with me.

50 third prizes, 10 gold coins each.

20 second prizes, 20 gold coins each.

Two first prizes, 50 gold coins each.

One grand prize: 100 gold coins.

Everyone was invigorated upon hearing this.

Even for a knight, 100 gold coins is a considerable sum.

Centaurs and servants would need to work for at least several years to earn that much money.

Everyone actively participated in the lucky draw.

"Oh my god! I won the first prize!"

Anna gasped in disbelief.

There are only two first prizes, each worth 50 gold coins! We're rich!
"Damn it, why did I only get third prize!" Windsor felt wronged.

The third prize made up the majority of the prizes, so 10 gold coins was already pretty good.

"Xuefu, you should try it too."

"Do I have one too?"

Xuefu thought that she was ineligible to participate in the lucky draw because she had received a red envelope.

"of course."

Xuefu couldn't wait to try her luck.

Unfortunately, I only received a second prize.

"Wow! Little Deer has won the grand prize!"

Lilia skipped and hopped over to Loren.

"Loren, quickly give the little deer some gold coins!"

Loren took the note and read it.

"It really is the grand prize! Is it true that fools are lucky?"

"Hehe! Hmm?" Lilia tilted her head, staring at Loren. "Are you insulting Little Deer?"

"No, I'm just saying you're lucky."

Loren thought for a moment, then realized that Lilia had nowhere to spend her money.

She always buys food for free when she goes to the food street.

"I'll save this money for you and pay you back when you grow up."

Lilia was shocked. "When will we have to wait?"

"It varies from person to person, so it's hard to say."

"No! Little Deer wants the money now!"

"I'll save it for you, and it'll increase by 1 gold coin every year. Before long, you'll become the richest deer in the world!" Loren tried his best to persuade him.

Lilia was skeptical. "Really?"

"Of course! Have you ever seen me lie to you?"

Xuefu secretly glanced at Loren, thinking to herself, "Haven't you lied to her enough already?"

"Alright then, but you're not allowed to spend it secretly!"

Millie and Fran also participated in the raffle, and they both won third prize.

The red envelopes in the box had all been drawn, with one left for Loren himself.

It turned out to be another first prize.

A chorus of wails erupted from the crowd.

The New Year celebrations ended joyfully.

The knights and centaurs helped the servants clean up the scene.

Initially, they were used to having their servants do this kind of thing.

However, Loren held banquets more and more frequently later on.

Fran evolves into a little fairy and holds a ceremony.

Liz's promotion to High Knight was celebrated once.

A few days ago, something was inexplicably held.

Another event was held to welcome the New Year.

The constant banquets exhausted the servants.

So everyone helped clean up after the banquet.

After the celebration, one naturally needs to wash up.

Xuefu, Lilia, and Millie took a bath together.

Loren also wanted to join in.

Although he felt that Xuefu wouldn't refuse, he still thought it was too early.

He might get kicked away by Lilia. Besides, the castle's bathtub isn't big enough.

We'll need to expand it in the future.

Loren thought that during this trip to the capital, he should recruit another fashion designer to help design a few swimsuits or something similar...

January of the new year.

The intelligence that Loren had been waiting for finally arrived.

[Annual Intelligence Updated]

[Intelligence 1]: The legendary wizard "Seria" of the human continent has created a new meditation method, "Hyperdimensional Meditation Method". She is traveling all over the continent and will come to the Elf Kingdom this October.

[Intelligence 2]: There is an ancient ruin in the Kobold territory of the Orc tribe, which contains the secret method for summoning demons.

[Intelligence 3]: In the Miracle Forest south of the Orc Tribe, there lies a hidden Emerald Realm.

[Intelligence 4]: The Siren Territory of the Ocean City contains a lost and mysterious object, the Mystery of the Star Sea.

[Intelligence 5]: A divine secret lies hidden deep within the Ice and Snow Empire's Ice and Snow Labyrinth.

Loren noted down five pieces of information and pondered for a long time.

What are all these things?

The daily intelligence report was very simple, basically just telling Loren where the elf insects were.

The monthly intelligence reports are slightly more advanced, providing information about the Elf Queen or dragons.

Whether it's daily or monthly intelligence, Loren at least has a general idea in mind.

However, the information in the annual intelligence report was unheard of.

The easiest to understand are the movements of the legendary wizard and the meditation method she created.

According to the wizard's handbook.

Wizards are ranked as follows: Apprentice Wizard, Senior Wizard, Grand Wizard, and then Legendary Wizard.

It is said that the legendary wizard's strength is no less than that of the Elf Queen.

Loren had not witnessed it firsthand and could not make a judgment.

A legendary wizard will visit the Elf Kingdom this October; whether this is a blessing or a curse remains to be seen.

The other four pieces of information are quite profound.

A secret method for summoning demons in ancient ruins.

The Emerald Realm of the Forest of Miracles.

The mysterious object of the ocean city.

The mystique of the Ice and Snow Empire...

Without a doubt, those that appear in the annual intelligence report must be rare treasures.

But with Loren's current strength, how could he possibly have access to these things?
He could only secretly memorize this information and explore it when he was strong enough.

Anyway, these things won't be lost anytime soon.

Annual intelligence update, no monthly intelligence, January is a good month with some free time.

A few days later, the thorny elm sprite successfully completed its evolution.

The little creature grew wings and remained quiet, like a shy young girl.

Unlike Fran, which cries out loudly as soon as it evolves, it emits a gentle "woo-woo" sound.

This surprised Loren.

He thought that the evolved Elm Spirit Bug would be a tough woman.

Loren looked at the shy little elf in his hand and fell into deep thought.

What's a good name for it?
From now on, I'll call you Hongyu.

"Woo~"

Hongyu seemed quite pleased with the name.

Loren breathed a sigh of relief.

The thought of having to come up with countless names in the future sent chills down his spine.

Next time I should invite Xuefu along!
Naming a child is complicated, but organizing a banquet is very simple.

Fran had previously held a banquet, and Loren couldn't show favoritism.

He decided to designate the last day of each month as Evolution Day.

A special feast was held to celebrate the evolution of the elves.

This time the situation is special.

Loren and Shirley decided to go on a long trip, so they celebrated Red Elm's birthday in advance.

Fran knew it was time for her to show off her singing voice again.

Nobody knows what it's singing.

But everyone was very supportive.

The elf's voice is very pleasant to the ear, unlike the annoying crying of a child, it can calm a restless person.

The day after the banquet.

Loren and Shirley set off in a carriage, which was still driven by Liz.

The first stop on this trip was Rose Castle.

"It's been half a year since I last saw you. I wonder how my sister is doing..."

Xuefu looked at the invitation in her hand, her heart filled with anticipation.
