Chapter 7 The Fleeing Elf Slave
The next morning.
"Who? Stop!"
It was filled with fog, and before dawn, Lei Luo in the tent was awakened by a roar and scolding.
He hurriedly crawled out of the tent, but saw the middle-aged knight leader holding a long sword, confronting a tall and weak figure in the fog.
Others also crawled out of the tent and stood together.
With the residual fire, everyone approached slightly. After seeing the person's specific appearance, they all said in surprise: "Elf?"
With a tall figure, graceful figure, and pointed ears, this is indeed a forest elf, and it seems that he is just an old elf girl.
Elf live in thorny forests outside the human kingdom. Like dwarves, they often appear in large human city-states. They belong to foreign races that are good for humans. Ordinary people have heard of them even if they have never seen them.
In more remote places in the continent far away from humans, there are many other alien civilizations, and even many races of humans that have not been heard of.
The Church Crusaders made many expeditions to a terrifying alien area called the Land of Night, attacking a heretic civilization called Bloodborne, and destroying the evil heretic temple there.
The middle-aged knight leader took back his sword and explained to the people around him: "The fog is everywhere. Just now, this elf is coming, and I thought it was a wild beast."
Huff, Huff.
As the elf girl gasped, Lei Luo's eyes passed through the hazy mist and looked at it carefully.
The tender and white skin was exposed, and only some key parts were covered by leaves. The tall, enchanting and hot figure was enough to make any woman jealous. It was the morning of early spring, and the elf girl was trembling in the cold and gasping for fatigue.
The elf girl turned around from time to time, as if she was afraid of something behind her, like a helpless and pitiful lamb, arousing pity.
This was the first time Lei Luo saw the opposite sex so exposed in front of him, and his cheeks suddenly turned red and he didn't dare to look at him again.
The leader of the knight shouted at the elf girl: "We are travelers to St. Granburg, the breath of your running and breathing just now made me mistakenly think that it was a beast, and you can pass."
The elf girl seemed to not understand human language, just stood there and gasped without responding.
The human knights ahead seemed to be afraid of the elf girl, who dared not move forward any more, was anxious and shed tears of prayer.
"What's wrong with her?"
Orn asked the Knights leader.
The knight leader frowned and said, "Elf who does not understand human language is so exposed in human territory. It seems... this should be a female elf who is fleeing! Although the various mankinds have already signed contracts with various elves and strictly prohibited all acts of capturing elves slaves, because of the outstanding beauty of these elves, there are still some corrupt nobles who secretly raise elves slaves. Many dark mercenaries take risks for the sake of their interests. This is how the half-elves who are despised by humans and elves usually come."
The leader of the knight was talking, and a few dog barking came from the heavy fog in the distant forest.
"Just ahead, don't let her run away!"
The elf girl couldn't help but feel even more frightened when she heard the footsteps chasing behind her. However, she was afraid of the tall and powerful human knights in front of her and did not dare to move forward. She just stood there sobbing and looked at everyone begging.
Lei Luo secretly looked at the reactions of the people.
The two young knights swallowed unconsciously, first showing the surprise of seeing an elf for the first time, and their eyes wandered on the graceful figure of the elf girl. Instinctively greedy for the beauty of the elf girl. Then they seemed to notice their own loss of composure and hurriedly turned their faces to hide their shame.
The middle-aged knight leader looked calm and thoughtful, with deep eyes and extremely calm.
The female knight showed great sympathy. After looking at the silent middle-aged knight leader, she looked at Orn behind her.
"Damn the fallen borer!"
Orn's voice almost came from the cracks of his teeth, and his angry and hatred seemed to be ashamed of what happened before him. He identified at the Knight Chief: "We must protect this elf, maintain the reputation of the Principal of Gran, and ensure that she returns to her home safely!"
"yes!"
The leader of the knight looked at Aoun, Zheng nodded heavily, put on his helmet again, looked at the elf with his eyes solemnly, and was ready to go, and roared quietly: "Draw the sword!"
The female knight breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly wore a metal helmet, revealing only a pair of cold eyes that were waiting for the battle.
The two young knights took a deep breath, as if ashamed of their instinctive evil thoughts at that moment. After being roared lowly by the captain, their cheeks were blushed, and their eyes were filled with passion for death, covering up complex emotions such as shame and tension.
Ao Wow!
With the chaotic footsteps deep in the fog, several tall figures gradually appeared. After seeing the figure of the elf girl who stopped in the fog in front, a rough and joyful voice came.
"Finally found it, right in front!"
Beside Orn, Lei Luo became nervous and tried his best to make himself more normal without showing shameful cowardice.
Aoun, who was beside him, swallowed secretly.
After seeing only four pursuers walking out of the fog, Orn then breathed a sigh of relief. He touched the gem ring in his right hand. The gem shone slightly red light and calmed down.
"stop!"
The middle-aged knight leader stood in front of everyone and shouted loudly, roaring: "We are the glorious knights of the Ridge Family, why do you want to hunt down this elf?"
The roar of the knight leader immediately made the four people in the fog feel nervous, stopped and stared at each other dozens of meters apart.
After seeing clearly that there were only six people on the opposite side and two children, the four people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmph, we are the Dark Wolf Mercenary Group. We received the mission from the Mercenary Hall and were responsible for arresting the elf assassin who committed murder in St. Granburg and went back, accepted punishment from the sheriff, she was accomplice, and killed her without any worries! If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
The mercenary captain who spoke was a bald man in his thirties, wearing earrings on his ears, wearing a black fur coat, and was 1.9 meters tall. He was carrying a cold battle axe. Just standing there was like a wall, very oppressive, as if he was a beast that could pounce on him at any time.
The other three members of the mercenary team looked like they were all vicious people who were licking blood from the edge of the knife, and one of them held a blood-like wolf-headed flag.
One of the female archers in her twenties, with a full moon bent bow, pointed at the right hand with an arrow, pointing to this side, as if the arrow that brought death could be shot out at any time. Next to the female archer was a giant black wolf, half a person tall, with a thorny metal decoration around her neck, with exposed fangs and ferocious blood.
"Warcraft?"
After seeing the black hyena, Aoun observed it carefully, confirmed for a while, and shook his head and said, "It should be a bit of the black flame wolf blood. Uncle Basel is careful."
"knew!"
The middle-aged knight leader responded in a low voice and laughed at the Dark Wolf Mercenary Group: "Hahaha, since it is a mission received from the Mercenary Hall, then take out the mission contract! Humph, do you think we don't know? A group of things that earn dirty gold coins, if you don't get out, use your blood to defend the glory of the Ridge Family!"
The scene was extremely tense and the battle was about to break out.
The elf girl in the middle of the confrontation seemed to know the good intentions of the middle-aged knight, so she ran towards this side directly.
The female knight whispered: "Young Master, do you not speak elf?"
"I am a scholar who studies the laws of nature. He is the cornerstone of mathematics and deduces the laws of nature. Elf language is the subject of those scholars who study the mysteries of evolution. How could I do it!"
Orn said annoyedly: "Don't worry, save it first. It won't cost much money to post an escort mission at the Mercenary Hall of St. Granburg!"
On the other side.
The leader of the Black Demon Wolf Mercenary Group, who was about to get the prey, had escaped, and his throat suddenly let out a low roar, like an awakened monster. Just as the extremely oppressive mercenary leader was about to launch a charge, suddenly, the female archer holding the black hunting dog behind him exclaimed: "Magic!"
Several people from the Black Demon Wolf Mercenary Group were shocked.
Looking from afar, I saw a flame ignited behind the four knights. It was so dazzling in the night sky that was not yet dawn. I was looking at this side with a bright look and would activate unknown magic at any time!
Although the other party looked obviously nervous, the noble magician was definitely not something that such a low-level low-level mercenary group could access at will. After discovering Orn's identity as a magician, they were even more nervous than Orn!
Countless mercenaries used their blood experience to tell their younger generations that if a mercenary group wants to develop for a long time and grow, they must hire a magician as the brain of the team. Mercenary groups without magicians must not conflict with mercenary groups with magicians. Once they have to conflict, the first target must be the other party's magician!
"Hey, Lei Luo, you can pretend too!"
Ornn's trembling voice almost came from the gaps of his teeth, and he was extremely nervous.
Lei Luo responded in a hurry: "Oh!"
Lei Luo picked up Orn's notebook casually, flipped through it slowly, taking it seriously, as if he was about to launch powerful magic at any time, but in fact his palms were already sweating and his legs were a little weak.
Lei Luo has never really experienced this kind of real swords and guns.
"what to do?"
Behind the leader of the Black Demon Wolf Mercenary Group, another scar man held a sword with his hands and asked hesitantly.
In the hearts of mercenaries, magicians have extremely high status. The high-level mercenary group will inevitably hire a magician as the core member of the team with extremely generous conditions, because in addition to the mysterious magic power, the most important thing is their profound knowledge and cognitive understanding of the mysterious phenomena in nature. This can save the entire mercenary group in many crises!
"withdraw!"
