In the western part of the continent of Loren, the peak of the ancestors towers on the earth.

This majestic mountain stands in the heart of the Agule Tribe like a giant beast with its head raised to glaring at the sky, and its "fangs" as the peak pierce into the clouds. Its three branches extend to the territory of orcs, humans and gray elves, and its majestic and huge mountain itself is the home for the survival of spiritual races and fairies for generations. For every person living on this land, this mountain has a very special meaning. Therefore, when the city-states of the Agule Tribe decided to become a consortium, they chose to build their recognized capital: the Holy Helmet City at the foot of the Ancestor Peak.

In the Ogure Tribe State, the five major races usually manage internal affairs independently, and several cities that coexist with multiple races operate on their own like independent city-states. However, if there is a major event involving the entire tribe State, the "Five Kings" will gather in the Holy Helmet City to discuss the future of this land together.

In the center of the city's highest dome hall, humans, gray elves, spirits, goblins and orcs were gathering at a round table, discussing several important things. The leader of the gray elves, Wenna Baizhi, was among them, but she was a little confused at this moment. Her eyes passed over the orc leader Ms. Camilla, who was sitting opposite her, who was extremely tall, and crossed the open terrace at the end of the hall, and fell to the peak of the ancestors in the background of the city - the peak stood tall next to the city. At this moment, there was a light golden sunset shining on its surface, and the entire mountain faced the sunset, looking brilliant.

Wenna sat in a special high chair and stayed for a long time until Wycliff, who was sitting next to her, called her back from her state of wandering around: "Wenna, Wenna--Don't be dazed."

The gray elf leader woke up suddenly, and first subconsciously glanced at the human leader beside him who had just woken up. The middle-aged man with short silver hair always had a smile on his face, and it was no exception. Then she looked at several other positions around the round table.

The tall lady Camilla with feline characteristics was sitting opposite her, and she frowned with some dissatisfaction; the leader of the Eldar Clan Stull sat next to Camilla, and the face of this man with light blue skin always had a meditative expression, and it was difficult for outsiders to understand his current emotions; opposite Stull was Stella, the leader of the fairy. This small lady sat on her beloved high-back chair, placed on a stack of books, the books were placed on a small stool, and the small stool was placed on the table - this pile of things made her the highest-positioned person on the scene, but this could not increase her majesty at all.

"Ah--" Wenna finally came back to her senses completely. She blinked, "It's time for me to speak? Where are we discussing?"

"Wenna, it's not a good habit to be distracted at important meetings," Kamilla sighed, her voice with a nice husky texture. As a partner who has been playing since childhood and a generous orc, she never minds criticizing Wenna Baizhi's shortcomings in formal and non-public occasions. "What we are discussing is related to the future of the entire tribe."

"Of course, of course, I know-I just don't think this matter itself needs to be discussed for so long," Wenna nodded repeatedly. "We have no reason to refuse that 'invitation' about Emperor Cecil. Whether politically or economically, the benefits of joining this new alliance are greater than the risks..."

"We have actually reached a consensus on this point just now--just when you are distracted and enjoying the scenery," Wycliffe smiled, "We are discussing another thing. According to the idea mentioned by Emperor Cecil in his letter, Stella just made a very constructive opinion..."

Wenna suddenly opened her eyes wide, and she subconsciously looked in the direction of Stella. She saw the lady who was as big as a palm, standing on the stack of books she was the "monarch", inserting her waist and showing a very proud look. This made her feel vaguely wrong: "Stella's opinion? And you are still discussing it seriously?"

"Wenna, there is prejudice in your words," Sdull spoke, with a mysterious low and slow tone, "You should listen to the content of this 'opinion' first."

"Okay, I'm listening," Wenna looked at Sdull, "What's the point?"

"The Ogure Tribe State has a completely different order from other countries. All countries on the mainland know that we are the five kings," Stull said quietly. "So Stella suggested that we send five representatives to the silver outpost according to the five 'royal families', and told Emperor Cecil that the political structure of the Ogure Tribe State is so loose - if it succeeds, we will have five votes in the future."

Although she had already guessed what this "constructive opinion" was, what Sdull said was still beyond Wenna's imagination. She couldn't help but look at Stella with admiration, and then looked at the others with a strange look: "...so what about your opinion?"

"We've voted, just wait for your opinion," Wycliffe said. "I personally think this suggestion is very attractive, but my sanity doesn't allow me to do things by my preferences, so I voted against it."

"I also object," Stull shook his head, "this is nonsense, and it even damages the face and prestige of the tribe state."

Camilla waved her hand: "I didn't think so much, I just thought it was too stupid, so I objected."

"That's all," Wenna spread her hands, "I also object to it-the reason is that the three of you add up."

Then she looked in Stella's direction: "Okay, everyone except you objected, we can go to the next topic."

Stella immediately returned to her chair in frustration, and seemed to have mumbled a few words. However, the people at the scene were no longer surprised by this. They believed that the optimistic fairy leader would cheer up before the next topic began.

"Let's discuss the "magic net hub" at the end," Wycliff looked at the meeting arrangement in his hand, and his eyes fell on Stuhl, Camilla and Stella. "First of all, I'm glad we finally reached a consensus last month to pass the plan to set up the magic net hub at the Ancestor Peak. Now we have successfully set up a temporary verification device, but as of last week, this device has been... some problems."

"The problem is big," Stella had indeed cheered up. She stood up and made a quick and crisp voice. "Originally, the test-based magic obelisk was working at the foot of the mountain, but as long as it was transported to the top of the mountain, the interference immediately became enormous - although magic transmission is not a problem, the signal is full of clutter. Our scholars have been studying it for several days. The current conclusion is that the interference comes from the outside world and has nothing to do with the structure or failure of the obelisk itself..."

"The superstitious mountain people think that the souls sleeping in the peaks of the ancestors are noisy in the crystal of the obelisk, because the obelisk disturbs their sleep," Sdull said in a deep voice, "so now, in addition to solving the problem from technical means, we are also spending our energy to appease the anxiety of the mountain people."

"Actually, I had a good idea before," Stella waved her arms, "We followed the magical obelisk to communicate with the ancestors. After this thing is built, it can be used to chat with the ancestors. Maybe the mountain people will support it... As a result, all of you still object."

Wenna Baizhi couldn't help but sigh, while Wycliff covered her forehead and muttered: "Every time Stella makes the opinions she makes is really attractive... voting against is simply a challenge..."

"I feel deeply," Wenna glanced at Wycliffe, then returned to Stella, "Anyway, let's find a way to solve the interference first. In order to start the project on the Ancestor Peak, we have invested a lot of costs in advance, and this matter will definitely be promoted. Theoretically, the Ancestor Peak has the best innate conditions in China: high altitude, clear atmosphere, and stable magic environment. No matter how you look at it, there should not be such interference... This phenomenon is worth in-depth study."

"Of course, of course, we will do it," Stella said quickly, "we will study it well - but maybe not find anything. I will arrange for scholars to collect interference data on the hillside and on several other hills this week. If we don't have a clue, we may have to ask Cecil's technical experts for help."

This time, the fairy lady's opinion finally received everyone's support...

...

The meeting ended and the tribal leaders began to leave.

A huge golem walked into the hall with heavy steps. It held up the small stool on the round table with its dexterous arms. Stella sat lightly next to the golem's neck after several jumps. She waved her hands at the other people and soon directed the golem to leave the hall. Camilla looked at the heavy body and back of the golem and couldn't help but shake her head: "We should really forbid her to bring the golem to the chamber... The ground here must be repaired every year."

After saying this, the orc leader said goodbye to Wenna, shook his head and left, and then left Stull, the leader of the Spirit clan. After most of the followers also evacuated, only Wenna Baizhi and the leader of humans were left in the huge chamber.

Wenna moved her shoulders and neck, which were a little stiff due to sitting for a long time, turned around and held the small ladder beside her high chair, and went down the ladder to the ground. She looked up at the tall Wycliffe and asked curiously: "Aren't you leaving?"

With a smile on his face, Wycliffe walked slowly to the nearby balcony and looked into the direction of the city and the mountains: "It is rare to have such a moment of leisure, and I have to extend the time I have to stay away from the documents as much as possible."

Wenna curled her lips and stepped to the balcony. She looked into the distance along Wycliff's gaze. She saw the ancient Helmet City bathing in the dusk sky light. The peak of the ancestors in the distance reflected orange-red light. She was actually not unfamiliar with this scene. In the years as the leader of the gray elf, she often came to the council hall of Helmet City. She had seen similar scenery many times.

"What a magnificent city," she couldn't help but whisper, "The new era is coming... I wonder if the scenery here will change as well, just like Fengge City or Baiyu Port."

"There is nothing unchanging," Wycliffe said with a smile. "The City of Helmet is regarded by many as a symbol of ancient and traditional, but if we trace history, isn't it a product of change in itself?"

Wenna Bai Zhi blinked and suddenly couldn't help laughing: "That's right."

As one of the rulers of this land, she certainly knew the origin of the Holy Helmet City:

This great city is located at the foot of the Ancestor Peak and is jointly governed by the Five Kings Council. In terms of style, it has unique characteristics throughout the continent: the buildings have the rigid straight lines and grand and grand appearance of the ancient Gondor style, and also have the thickness and practical style of the distant Western dwarf kingdom. Although this land should have historically been the home of four races: gray elves, orcs, spirits and goblins, this city combines the styles of the ancient Gondor Empire and the dwarf kingdom. This unique point of nature is related to the history of the Holy Helmet City-

The Holy Helmet City was built more than 700 years ago. At that time, the ancient Gondor Empire collapsed and the remnants fled in scattered. Among them, the pioneers who moved to the western part of the mainland crossed the rift valleys and mountains on the border of the ancient empire and stepped into the ancient mysterious land of Agure. At that time, several major races on this land had not yet formed a "tribal state" in the future, but had loosely existed in the form of tribal alliances. The humans who suddenly migrated here from the human empire were a very impactful event for the indigenous people on this land. After some contact and mediation, the indigenous people here finally decided to accept these refugees from the Gondor Empire, and the latter also chose to repay this kindness in their own way.

In addition to some knowledge from the Gondor Empire (the part that is still available after the Demon Tide) and treasures, the greatest reward for the Westward Trail Blazers to the Aboriginal people was this "Holy Helmet City".

They spent all the money they carried with their exile journey, used far more advanced architectural and planning knowledge from the Gondor Empire than the local area, and used an ancient contract from the Gondor period to invite dwarf craftsmen from the western part of the mainland to build the city at the foot of the Ancestor Peak. Then they only accounted for one-fifth of the city, and gave four-fifths of the city to the other four tribes.

At the same time, the new knowledge and new ideas brought by the Gondor people were also an important reason why the tribes on the land of Agure changed their traditional pattern and established a "tribal state" with close connections.

That's why Wycliffe said: The City of Helmet itself is the product of a change.

Wenna Baizhi suddenly sighed, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional:

More than 700 years ago, when humans were not active on this land, the Ancestor Peak had already existed as a "holy land" of the four tribes. This land had its own traditions and customs for thousands of years. It was not until the Gondor Empire was destroyed by a demon tide and the remnants of the empire came here across the vast wasteland, and the young and creative humans brought earth-shaking changes to this place.

Regardless of what the ancestors who were facing change had at that time, as descendants, from a historical perspective, Wenna must admit that it was these changes that shape the country that is far stronger and more united than before.

Today, new changes have once again knocked on the gates of the Agulei mountains - this time the changes are still brought by humans.
