In the midst of the marching carriage, the young man jumped out of the carriage, and before the knight guarding the convoy could alert him, he rushed into the birch forest next to him, and after a slight sound of the knife being unsheathed, the quiet birch forest became lively.

The realm belonging to the spiritual cultivators spread, and Yin Jiuchen quickly probed all the situations in the vicinity, there were a total of twenty-three Night Cultists who ambushed and attacked, and the highest strength was a seventh-order Imperial Qi, and the rest were all low-level cultivators in the Imperial Qi, and there was even the existence of the Forging Body Realm.

Also, this is just an operation to sneak attack materials, even if you can't grab it, just ignite it, and you don't need to do too much confrontation with the guards at all, so the strength requirements are not high.

Yin Jiuchen has been taken care of by Elena for such a long time, and it is time to repay it. Eight figures appeared from the young man's side and dispersed one after another, and soon screams sounded one after another in the birch forest.

The battle ended in an instant, and Yin Jiuchen dispersed the mirror image and rushed to the convoy. He didn't like to kill people who were much weaker than him, but a surge of anger rose at the thought that most of the town had been destroyed, that a considerable number of its inhabitants had been killed, and that it was Elena's long-awaited hometown.

When the convoy turned a corner, Yin Jiuchen saw the town of Jiuqu that was still smoking. Many houses were burning, bloodstained corpses were lying silently in their homes or in the streets, the Night Cultists who had attacked had left, and the few who survived had gathered in the clearing, looking at the burning houses with grief and despair in their eyes.

Elena's convoy was only about a hundred people, and the supplies they carried were not much, and after hearing the news, they had already sent people to the nearest town to dispatch food, but it would take five days before the supplies arrived, and there were too many injured people, and the priest could not take care of them all, and the tens of thousands of people who survived might have to die two or three percent.

Elena only came back late at night, and judging from her expression, it was obvious that she hadn't pursued those Night Cultists, the Dragon's Blood River was nearby, and it was highly likely that all of them had crossed the river and returned.

Upon her return, Elena threw herself into command, and she had to use the manpower and materials she had to survive the five most difficult days and keep as many people alive as possible. As for the idea of finding her parents, she had already buried it in her heart, and it was possible to live until it was confirmed that her parents were dead, and Elena deceived herself in her heart.

On the green clearing not far from Jiuqu City, a piece of newly carved wooden plaques are inserted on the land, engraved with the only few messages in this person's life, and from time to time there are new wooden plaques**.

Dressed in golden monks' robes, Elena folded her hands and prayed for the sleeping ones that the Light would lead them to heaven. Just today, supplies from the town have arrived, and there will be a steady stream of follow-up shipments, and Elena finally has a short respite.

Yin Jiuchen hugged Anya and watched not far away, he has been refining healing elixirs for the past few days, but with limited materials, Yin Jiuchen can not do much, and Anya realized the cruelty of war for the first time.

While the three of them were in this quiet meadow, soothing their troubled thoughts for the past few days, a knight came to report to Elena, and he did not deliberately lower his voice: "Inspector, we have collected five ships upstream and downstream. ”

"Okay, you can go back first. Elena said in a low voice, stopping her prayer.

"Yes!" the knight quickly left.

"Elena, do you want to cross the river and attack the town on the other side of the river?" Yin Jiuchen frowned.

Elena nodded: "It's an order from above." ”

Yin Jiuchen instinctively should stop Elena, such a revenge has no meaning, it will only deepen the hatred between the two sides, but Yin Jiuchen is just an outsider, he doesn't have any position to say such things.

After thinking about it, Yin Jiuchen walked up to Elena and looked at her directly: "I won't say that you will disobey the order and not go, but you have not rested for the past five days, and your mental state is very poor, and I suspect that the other party has already laid a trap and is waiting for you to step in, you must rest, be cautious and cautious." ”

"There's no time left. Elena didn't dare to meet Yin Jiuchen's eyes, she felt like a person who had lost her treasure at the moment, looking back and forth in vain, humble and embarrassed: "I've been busy these days, I haven't had time to thank you face-to-face, thank you for helping me keep the supplies, thank you for letting more people survive, thank you, care about me." ”

"I am the Valkyrie of the Light, and I cannot hold back. Elena bowed to Yin Jiuchen and strode out of the land.

Yin Jiuchen and Anya were silent in place for a long time.

"I want to send her. Anya said suddenly.

"Good. Yin Jiuchen had the same idea.

......

On the side of Jiuqu Town, near the Dragon's Blood River, forty knights in armor gathered together and waited for the Inspector's orders.

Elena has changed her outfit at this moment, the usual simple light armor has been dismantled, and she has been replaced with a golden full-body armor, the armor covers all the key points, taking into account the convenience of action, surrounded by a cloudy streamer, obviously the defense is very good.

Elena stood on the improvised dock, holding her sword in both hands and standing in front of her, speaking to the knights before the action, and anyone with a little brain would have thought that this revenge was likely to be gone, but for the sake of the Holy Light, for the sake of the tens of thousands of people buried in the ruins behind them, too late to be buried, they did not hesitate.

"You don't have to follow me, the Light just asked me to gather the knights who can fight as the vanguard and step into the land of the night, and you can completely refuse," Elena looked around at the dozens of knights, "Now is the last chance to withdraw from the operation, don't feel like you're guilty, it's staring at death." ”

"So, the last time you asked, did you quit?"

The dock was silent, no one talking, no one moving.

"So, let's get moving!"

The knights stepped onto the ship in batches, the swaying streaks of water spreading out in all directions, as if they were transmitting movement in all directions for the last time in their lives. Elena's brown eyes looked at Yin Jiuchen and Anya, who were looking at this side not far away, nodded slightly, and at the moment of turning around, she closed the translucent mask, her expression became cold, and a murderous aura surrounded her body.

Five small wooden boats crossed the water, and on the water nearly a thousand meters wide, they seemed so small, as if a larger wave could swallow them all.

"There is strife everywhere. Yin Jiuchen sighed.

"Brother, will we never see Elena again?" Anya could already deduce something from the subtle things.

"Probably. Yin Jiuchen retracted his gaze and turned back.
