Chapter 2751: The Distinction Between the Bottom Layers of Elves and Humans

During the subsequent tour, Xia Duo first took a general look at the Netheril Embassy complex, focusing on the accommodation situation and the more outstanding showrooms here.

This showroom was established at the very beginning of the embassy's founding, and now, hundreds of years later, it has been preserved despite the embassy undergoing several renovations; inside are displayed copies of various contracts Netheril signed with Yierlan in the past, as well as some gifts from Yierlan.

Fema'ai's explanation was sufficiently witty and humorous, but throughout the entire tour, Xia Duo could still feel the weight of history and the sacrifices made by the Netherese.

The history of Netheril is not long for a civilization, but for a country, it can be called heavy, only that the focus of Xia Duo's past attention was not on this.

Looking at it now, this trip to the Netheril Embassy was quite worthwhile.

And besides the embassy complex itself, Fema'ai also introduced the situation around the embassy to Xia Duo, especially the area below the branch where the embassy is located, which can be regarded as Netherese territory.

The embassy has not developed this area much, and it still retains its original appearance—not bare branches, but a surface turned into humus, becoming a hotbed for flowers and green grass to bloom.

Only a gravel-paved path leads to the further end of the branch.

And at the end of the path, in a location on the further end of the branch that is difficult to utilize, a micro-airport abruptly entered Xia Duo's view from the low bushes.

According to Fema'ai's introduction, although this airport is tiny and simple, it is a legal private airport in Taiweimansa, and it is very convenient to depart from there by Magic Ship to other urban areas.

Therefore, an Elf can easily make the decision to go traveling tomorrow and has the financial resources to do so, but it is very difficult for ordinary humans to make such a decision, and few ordinary people have such financial resources.

To mention just one point, there are no poor people in the true sense in Elf society; as long as one is willing to work, at the very least one can find a job as a Druid Apprentice, and although such a job has low social status, it is enough to support a family.

Compared to upper-class Elves, the income of the bottom layer is indeed very low, but such income at least allows most bottom-layer Elves to survive quite decently.

In short, it is still very convenient to travel in the Elf Kingdom, and even for ordinary people, it is very convenient to travel.

Compared to the bottom layer of Netheril, the income of the Elf bottom layer is much higher.

"I didn't expect the news of my arrival in Yierlansa to spread so fast; I haven't been settled for long, and someone has already sent an invitation."

But in Netheril, the encounters of those truly at the bottom are almost unimaginable; some people may live even worse than Slaves.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo no longer had any hesitation about this invitation.

This matter itself was within Xia Duo's expectations, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly; he probably hadn't even warmed his seat before some Elves couldn't wait.

After visiting the surroundings of the embassy, Xia Duo had no further arrangements; Ambassador Taiweiman could not accompany him all the time, and after sending him to the door of his residence, the two parted ways.

Even this is something many poor people can only dream of.

As the private property of their masters, under normal circumstances, no slave owner would be crazy enough to damage their own property; at the very least, they would ensure the reproductive capacity of the Slaves as much as possible.

……

Of course, this is for ordinary people, or rather, ordinary Spellcasters; Fema'ai dignitaries naturally have the way of dignitaries. Generally speaking, high-ranking families all have the Permission Level to build private Portals in their own homes, without needing to use public channels.

Therefore, whenever Xia Duo comes to the Elf Kingdom and sees the living conditions of ordinary Elves, he cannot help but feel such emotion, sighing at the difficulty of ordinary people in Netheril and the difficulty of social reform among Elves.

It is not an invitation to the Midwinter Festival banquet, but a private invitation before the banquet.

Or, fly over directly; as long as one flies to the Fema'ai border, if one does not hide, one will be discovered by border guards. If one is an ordinary person, one might be subject to Banishment, but if one has connections, one will be guided to a nearby border city.

Then, departing from the border city, either by land travel or by continuing to fly, one can reach Yierlansa.

Furthermore, the oppression of bottom-layer Elves by upper-layer Elves is more of a political and economic Suppression, rather than direct control of personal relationships.

……

Corresponding to this is Netheril; high-level Mages are of course unimpeded, but for ordinary people, even just leaving their hometown might be a long-distance trip, let alone walking freely within the territory.

Even without considering human factors, the harsh environment in the wild is enough to discourage any ordinary person who has the desire to travel.

What exactly is the reason why the Fema'ai side chose to send an invitation more than a month in advance in such a strange interval? Is there really something big going to happen, or is he overthinking it?

Usually, if one wants to arrive as soon as possible, one can go to a city with Teleportation Spell permission to teleport directly, or go to a city with flights to take a direct Magic Ship to Yierlansa.

Besides safety factors, the biggest problem is money; one cannot travel without money. Although the class structure of Elf society is severely solidified, this does not mean that the income of the bottom layer is necessarily very low.

And this also deepened his curiosity about this Midwinter banquet.

Now that Xierdalanna is in such a hurry to meet, does she know something?

Xia Duo walked through the Teleportation Hall this time; there is a Permanent Teleportation Portal connected to Evereska there. Similar portals also exist in Seventon. If Xia Duo departed from Seventon, he would also come out of the Teleportation Hall in Yierlansa.

The inviter is none other than one of the few acquaintances Xia Duo has in Fema'ai—Xierdalanna of the Moonhorn Family.

Of course, for the Netheril Embassy, the existence of this legal airport means that Teleportation Spells can be legally used here. Although it can only teleport outwards, if an emergency occurs, it is a precious escape route.

If one wants to teleport to Yierlansa from the outside, there are basically only a few fixed places, such as the Teleportation Hall, the official airport, and the Headquarters of individual societies with deep foundations.

And if one considers safety factors, then there is no comparison.

……

The harsh living environment of ordinary people in Netheril can be said to be unimaginable to the vast majority of Elves.

Xia Duo originally wanted to find time to turn his consciousness back to his main body to see the situation in the Territory, but before he could be alone for long, an attendant from the embassy brought an invitation letter.

But in Netheril, if an ordinary person appears in another place, it is truly possible for them to be kidnapped and made into a Slave; some might be the work of local criminal forces, and some might even be the lord themselves.

There are basically no irresistible disasters in the Elf wild, and one can call the Patrol at any time, but it doesn't work that way in Netheril.
