The wall fire in the prime minister's office in the castle district of Kwyn was 'crackling', and the howling north wind outside occasionally blew on the battle flag hanging from the window and made a strange 'crackling' sound.

In the office, Leanne Keblair, a senior member of the elves, sat in a dark corner of the reception couch, the teacup in her hand steaming a little.

The tea is very fragrant, and it is a clear tea that elves like.

But she just held the teacup, wanting to take a sip but didn't seem to be in the mood.

"Squeak"

The sound of the old iron gate is always so ugly.

Duke Nick left his entourage out the door and walked into the office alone, and after he took two steps, he steadied himself again, for he smelled a strong smell of blood in his nostrils.

This smell is the whole office!

"You're hurt?"

Duke Nick stood motionless in the doorway, looking at Liane Keblair as he stood up, but the other party's back to the fire made it seem as if his whole person was shrouded in darkness.

The duke couldn't see each other clearly.

"Ahem" Liane's beautiful body trembled violently, and she coughed hard.

The smell of blood in the room was even heavier when he coughed!

Golden holy power surged in the office,

It was Duke Nick who was treating her.

"It's useless, human. Liane shook her head and made a gesture of please, "Come and take a seat." "She thinks of herself as the master of this place.

In the eyes of thousand-year-old elves, everything on the continent is theirs, and they look at other creatures on the continent as if they were their own children.

Duke Nick frowned and hesitated for two seconds before walking over.

Liane turned sideways at this time, putting the whole person in the firelight... Duke Nick was stunned, Liane was not at all as elegant as she had been a few days ago, her girlish face had withered, and she looked like an old Ou who was about to die.

"Come and sit. But her voice was still good, "This is the price of betraying nature, I used forbidden art to teleport myself from the Biron Forest. ”

"What's going on?" Duke Nick said with a solemn look on his face and an inexplicable tremor in his tone. After all, there aren't many things that can make an elf betray nature, and it won't happen for hundreds of years!

"It took me nearly 500 years to forget my desires and return to nature. Liane's voice carried a sense of loneliness, "My friends and I have formed a high-level council, and we will bring what we think is right to the next generation. ”

She looked at Duke Nick without any emotion in her eyes, "But the young elves have not learned to restrain their desires, and besides, we have forgotten what we did when we were younger..." Seal it in the depths of the forest, including the Leader of the Rylandal-Ghost Forest!"

Duke Nick's eyelids couldn't help but jump wildly when he heard this, and he wanted to interrupt the other party's words several times, but he couldn't hold back several times.

On the other side, Liane, who was gradually losing her vitality, continued: "Parliament Leader Rylandal stopped us from resisting, he fell asleep in the seal, we did not violate the decision of the Protest Chairman, the senior councillors decided to send me to inform you... The world is not as simple as you think, and the negative energy that a protracted war will produce is terrifying, and it is enough to destroy the whole world. ”

"I want to stop this war more than anyone else, but this war has been going on so far, and it is no longer the will of any one person who can change it. Duke Nick said helplessly.

"I know!" Liane's voice grew quieter, "Speaker Ryandal has said that humanity will lead the continent to the light, and while I doubt it, I hope you don't let us down. ”

"All I can say is that I will do my best. Duke Nick's brow furrowed even more, and his temples couldn't stop jumping.

Liane nodded and said, "Okay, this is my warning, and it's the last task of the Supreme Council... Keep your magicians on the lookout for changes in the web. ”

When she finished speaking, she closed her eyes,

Duke Nick only felt the thick smell of blood gradually turn into a particularly unpleasant smell of corpses.

"Click"

The skin on Liane's cheeks shattered like dry tree bark in the wind, and blood flowed red and black.

She's dead!

Duke Nick was the whole process of dying in front of him with an elf with a lifespan of thousands of years.

"Your Excellency. Outside the door, Kerman probably smelled the stench of the house, and his voice was nervous.

"Come in. Duke Nick shouted tiredly.

The door opens,

Kerman and the guards outside were so smoky with an even stronger stench that they almost vomited.

Duke Nick stood up and bowed down to Liane Keblair's corpse... After a few seconds, he turned to Kerman at the door and ordered, "Cremate the body of Councilor Lianne in the specifications of the Duke." ”

Although Kerman did not know what had happened, this did not prevent him from accepting orders.

Soon, four female knights who had been baptized in the Radiant Church and recognized by the royal family followed Kerman to the prime minister's office.

Duke Nick moved to the parlor next to his office.

Soon, the Marquis of Nepdo heard the news.

"The death of an elven high-ranking councillor is no small matter. The Marquis looked at Duke Nick, who was writing a letter, and his tone was serious.

Duke Nick ignored him,

Ten minutes later,

The Duke packed several of the written letters into small sealed black bamboo tubes and handed them to his assistant Kerman.

"Councillor Liane's death could spark a war between us and the elves. The voice of the Marquis of Nepdo rang out again.

"There is a rebellion within the Elven Kingdom..."Duke Nick said in the shocked gaze of Marquis Neptor, "You can understand that the young elves overthrew the High Council, and they sealed all the members of the High Council in the depths of the forest. ”

"The goddess is above..."Marquis Nepdo was silent for a few seconds and then said, "They finally did it!" Obviously, this Marquis knows the Elven Kingdom well.

"Unfortunately, our old jokes have come true. Although Duke Nick's tone was teasing, his expression was unusually serious, "Those young elves have been haunted by the war of three hundred years ago, if you were them, what would you do now?"

"Felder Collar can deal with elves in a short period of time. The Marquis Nepdo replied: "It seems that our plan must be advanced and the rebels must be dealt with before the arrival of next spring." ”

"Well, then, go and give orders. Duke Nick stood up, "Let the Sixth and Eighth Legions have to launch an attack three days before, and in addition, order the Ninth Legion to launch a tentative attack immediately." ”

...

December 2, 1215 in the continental calendar,

The Locke Empire merchant rebellion war was in full swing on the Suker Plains.

Two elven outposts (one outpost of 5,000 people) ranger archers, with the help of 5,000 high-ranking magicians, launched a surprise attack on the fortress of Bandara outside the Narun Forest at 6 p.m.

At three o'clock in the morning the next day,

The unsuspecting military port of Fedenus is attacked by a ranger from an elven outpost.

Two hours later, the military port fell.

Five hours later,

At ten o'clock in the morning of December 3rd, the elves gathered ten outposts near the military port of Fedenus, and under the leadership of their new leader, General Thranduil, with the minotaur warriors and giant priests as the spearhead, set out to invade the Locke Empire from the vast road leading from the military port of Federnus to the territory of Feld.

After more than 300 years, the elves have officially joined the war for the overlord of the Elan Continent!
