Quellins Cottage.

Compared to the usual elven villages, it is obviously much more lively and noisy.

Due to its proximity to Skywater City, the elves near the West Coast who want to travel to this famous city on the West Coast will inevitably pass by the Quellins Hut.

As a result, it has become a beautiful town where travelers can't help but stop and rest.

Within the Elven Kingdom, there are few large chambers of commerce like the human kingdom, and most of the commodity transactions and material exchanges are carried out in the form of bartering in a small area. Most of the elves have a long lifespan, and they are also fond of music, painting, flowers, gardens and other artistic fields. They have very low material requirements, and most of the time they pursue a self-sufficient 'perfect' life.

While humans lament that life is too short and are busy pursuing money and power, elves like to travel around the Jialan Continent as they like to do as they like when they become adults. When you are thirsty, drink some nectar, when you are hungry, pick some wild fruits, and when you are sleepy, you can sleep beautifully by finding a branch at will.

As for power and wealth, as well as personal strength, these have become useless wasted lives, and they are excluded from life choices by most elves.

It is under the influence of this atmosphere of enjoying life and pursuing elegance that the rhythm of life of the elves seems to be a little sluggish and lazy.

Although there have been several warning signals on the west coast, most of the locations attacked are located on the edge of the coast, so even if Tianshui City sends a dense group of Pegasus knights and eagle archers to patrol the edge of the coast, the elves of Quellins Hut still seem to be slow and enjoy every day of their lives.

As night wore on, the crowds of people coming and going to Quellins Cottage began to thin out.

Although the Enchanted Forest is home to the elves, when night falls, those ferocious beasts will also come out to make waves. So it's not particularly needed, and the elves don't like to walk in the magical forest at night.

At the foot of a low cliff three miles from Quellins' hut, a black-robed Billis was negotiating something with Mary in a low voice.

After 5 days of diurnal walking, Billis, the Worm Witch, finally managed to sneak around the Quellins Hut with the Worm Army. And at this point, how to proceed next depends on the meaning of Mary, the Queen of Blood.

Therefore, when the two sides met here, everyone remained silent, silently obeying the old fox Winlier's instructions.

“…… This is already an elven powerhouse near Tianshui City, and it would be wishful thinking for us to calmly encircle and suppress and clean up the elves as before. Once you stay here for too long, a distance of 200 miles is nothing to the defenders of Tianshui City. So whether we win or lose, we have to fight fast, and we must not attack the Quellins hut for more than 5 hours. ”

"Five hours is too short, isn't it?, even if the siege of the elves goes well, there won't be much time to clean up the resources inside......" Billis said with a gloomy face.

"Don't forget, Lord Bilis, we're still in danger. Once the leak location is filled by the Elven Mobile Force, it will be difficult to escape from them and escape to the edge of the coast. So we can't stay here for long, 5 hours is enough time for us to beat off the elven garrison in the town and plunder it......"

Mary stood aside with a straight face, not paying too much attention to Winlil's and Bilis's negotiations. She looked in the northeast direction, her brows furrowed, and she always felt an indescribable weight in her heart weigh down her breath.

Is it this operation that has been exposed? Or is there something going to happen in the next few moments, or is there some big man nearby?

For a while, too many possibilities came one after another, which made her a little uneasy!

"No need to argue!" Mary said immediately, "We only have four hours." As soon as the 4 hours arrived, no matter what the fight looked like at the time, the gang immediately broke up...... If you are not afraid of death, you can stay and continue to sweep, all the harvest is yours, I don't want to divide it!"

Of course, Bilis didn't dare to be stubborn in front of Mary, and nodded silently in agreement.

Since the time is pressing, there is no need to arrange it slowly, and it is necessary to surround it first and then fight!

As soon as a few people made a decision, they immediately split up and started to act.

The insect army of Bilis, who had always carried it with him, walked into the forest with his hands raised lightly, and whispered, "Come out, my people!"

As soon as Bilis's voice fell, the glade within a radius of 100 meters immediately boiled.

The black earth bulged up like a wave, and as the soil at the top of the mound broke and shattered, large strands of black beetles erupted from it, instantly turning the place into a terrible sea of insects.

Billis's black body collapsed in an instant, and hundreds of black insects scattered into the swarm merged into the swarm, converging into a terrifying torrent that frantically surged towards the Quellins hut not far away.

Behind the swarm, a large number of vampire bats also began to advance under the cover of the lush canopy.

Under the dim and drowsy moonlight, a terrible scene is about to play out in the forest!

…………

Warren is just an ordinary elven archer!

Honoredly, he was drafted into the Quellins Hut garrison as a trainee elven warrior.

And his daily task is to guard the sentry at the edge of the town to prevent the beasts and monsters of the forest from breaking into the town at night.

The work of the vigil is actually very boring.

If it weren't for the clever and cute 'cathead' by his side and his chattering and communication, I am afraid that Warren would not be able to resist the long and lonely night.

The 'owl' is an owl that grew up with him, and it can be regarded as an animal companion who accompanies him day and night.

However, there is clearly something unusual about today!

As soon as it was dark, the cat's head looked a little restless and nervous, and from time to time flew into the forest and coiled around a group, as if looking for something. But it was dark and dense, and it almost always came back in vain.

Just as the bright moon in the sky had just hung up on the dome, this usually calm animal companion was more like a demon hovering around the sentry post without stopping, and then quickly pounced on Hua Lin's shoulder and hissed loudly.

"Enemy...... Dangerous ......"

Through a quick exchange, Warren only asked for some simple information from the cat's mouth.

He's not one of those druids, and he's able to use natural spells to talk directly to animals. Warren was able to ask these questions, relying on his familiarity and understanding with the cat.

Enemy approaching the sentry?

Warren quickly put on his longbow, his quiver, his short sword, and a vine in both hands, and he jumped up to the tall tree next to him like an ape.

Finding a hidden place and covering his body with dense foliage, Warren bent his bow and arrows, and scanned the mountains and forests at night with bated breath.

As a trainee garrison member, you will be reprimanded by your boss for sending out an indiscriminate warning without spotting the enemy. So Warren could only silently observe the movements around him.

When he calmed down and immersed himself in the night breeze, in addition to the rustling sound of the wind blowing the leaves, he vaguely heard some strange sounds.

Chirp......

It is like the sound of insects gnawing at dead wood, and the sound of insects rubbing their carapaces.

But with such a dense sound, could it be that the little bugs in the neighborhood have rioted?

Just when he was surprised and inexplicable, Warren finally realized that something was wrong.

The earth is moving......

Under his careful scrutiny, the black earth in the distance seemed to be wriggling, rushing silently like a wave.

The chirping is getting louder and louder!

The black night couldn't stop Warren's keen vision, and his face finally changed drastically!

This...... It's not that the earth is surging, it's ...... Rather, a swarm of black beetles that are too numerous to be counted are advancing.

Like a black ocean, the swarms were surging across the woodlands, across hills, and across streams, and were heading at frantic speed toward Quellins Hut.

Drip......

The shrill siren finally sounded.

The feather arrow in Warren's hand shot out with a bang, and it instantly disappeared into the sea of black insects.

I don't know if I have shot some worms, but Warren quickly bent his bow and arrows, ready to attack for a second time.

At this moment, a strange flapping of wings from the canopy of the dense forest reached his ears.

Warren looked up in shock, and was greeted by a large shaggy mouth that was rapidly expanding.

…………

At the moment when the siren sounded, in the center of the noisy Quellins hut, a graceful and vigorous female elf walked out of the tree hall and looked in the direction from which the siren came.

Almost at the same moment, the deputy captain of the garrison, Alan, ran to the female elf panting according to the quiver.

"It seems to be a siren from the southwest!Have you sent someone to check it out?" The shrewd and capable female elf was the captain of the town's garrison, and when she saw the deputy captain rushing back, she hurriedly asked.

As the town's military chief, she's not as crude as the average elf.

It's been a while since the West Coast edges weren't so quiet!

If it's really a warning signal from the southwest, then the problem could become very serious.

"Someone has already been sent. Tonight, Warren was on guard duty on the west side, and the sound seemed to be a warning signal from the west sentry. Do you think you need to notify all members of the garrison to assemble?"

"Assemble!" the elf captain was still looking into the distance, "I always feel that something bad might happen this night......

However, before the vice-captain could go down and ring the bronze bell in the center of the village, the southwest direction had become in an uproar.

This upheaval is not a one-place upheaval, but a full-fledged one.

As far as the naked eye could see, the southwest edge of the Quellins Hut was like a gloomy wind blowing, and everywhere it went, it immediately crackled and became chaotic. Many elves roared with their necks pulled at their heads, and quickly climbed towards the heights as they ran.

It seems that some terrible beasts have rushed into the town......

"You gather people immediately, I'll rush over and take a look first......"

The female elf didn't hesitate to think about it, left a sentence, jumped off the tall tree, and ran quickly towards the source of the turmoil.
