First Entry to the Continent Chapter 115: Scam
Time passed, and each busy shadow gradually lengthened until nightfall.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the city gates were about to close, and not a single pedestrian passed through the road. The Thorn City guard yawned listlessly, waiting for the next shift to be held shortly after.
"Have you heard?, the young lord and the knight of Madifen went out yesterday and haven't come back yet," Jack, the gate guard, suddenly began to talk.
"yes, so what, what's our business," said the listless guard Mark yawning.
“... It really doesn't matter what happens to us little people," Jack, the other gate guard, looked thoughtful: "I just feel like something is going to happen?
"Whatever" Mark patted Jack on the shoulder: "It's going to be a shift change soon, and you'll go to drink with me later"
Before Jack could reply, he heard the squad leader Joel behind him shouting: "This period is very tense, no drinking!"
"Yes, squad leader," Mark replied immediately in a loud voice, and the soldiers under Fnovich were very disciplined.
Joel suddenly stared at him, and said in a low voice, "Someone is coming."
The rest of the guards immediately followed the captain's gaze to a figure on horseback, who was wearing a black cloak and looked very anxious in the night, but stopped as he approached the city gate, showing hesitation.
"Who's it?" shouted the guard above the wall, torch-cling, his crossbow already aimed at the comer.
The man turned over and dismounted, and slowly walked to the city gate, the head of the black-robed man was very low, and his face could not be seen clearly in the light of the fire.
Very suspicious, the squad leader Joel took ten of his subordinates and slowly surrounded the black-robed man: "Take off the cloak and be checked"
The black-robed man ignored it and led the horse slowly closer.
"Stop, get checked," Joel snapped out his weapon and yelled.
It was not until he walked to a place where the guard satellite line on the city wall could not be seen, and the black-robed man stopped, his free hands slightly opened, indicating that he had no weapons.
"Joel, who is he" The squadron leader on the city wall asked loudly without seeing what was going on.
Seeing that the black-robed man had been silent and couldn't see his face clearly, Joel ordered in a low voice: "Mark, you go and check his identity"
"Yes" Mark stared at the black-robed man vigilantly, and slowly approached, only to see that the black-robed man had slowly removed the black hood on his head, revealing a pair of pointed ears and emerald green hair.
"Forest elf?" Mark looked at the handsome young male forest elf in front of him in surprise, he had thought that the other party was a devil who killed people without blinking an eye or something.
The forest elf nodded slowly and took a few steps forward: "Can you still enter the city now?"
"Of course," Joel came back to his senses, suddenly thought of something, and said urgently, "But you're here now.... Is there any purpose?"
As we all know, the center of the elf slaves is Thorn City, and now there is an elf who has thrown himself into the net?
The forest elf showed hesitation, and the handsome young face said slowly: "My sister came to Thorn City yesterday, and I came to find her."
"Your sister?" Joel paused, there was indeed a tall female forest elf wearing a dark green cloak who had entered the city from here last night, but then reported it to the Marquis, who was immediately taken away by the Marquis, and ordered them not to talk nonsense.
"Well, my sister is in this city, right?" Seeing the squad leader's hesitation, the young man immediately stepped forward and said excitedly, "Isn't it?"
Yolden felt an invisible pressure force him to speak, "It's... Yes, anyway, there is a young female forest elf who went to the Marquis's Palace, but I don't know if it's your sister."
The boy smiled with relief, but there was something strange about his smile.
Seeing this, everyone let down their vigilance, as long as they didn't offend the bottom line of the forest elves, they were still relatively friendly, and they couldn't help but be glad that the marquis they followed was an out-and-out good nobleman.
"Squadron Leader, it's a forest elf, do you want to bring him to the Marquis's Palace" Joel asked loudly as he took a few steps forward and looked at the squadron leader on the city wall.
"Forest elves?" The squadron leader showed a strange expression, but the other party was just a harmless forest elf, so it should be fine: "Okay, escort him to the Marquis's Mansion, pay attention to safety on the way"
Joel turned his head and his eyes fell on Jack and Mark: "You two send him to the Marquis's Palace, and the rest of you and I continue to guard the city gates"
Mark sighed silently and looked at Jack helplessly: "It looks like we're going to work overtime tonight"
The three of them walked in the silent street, and just today, the Marquis gave a strict order, and the night ban was one of them.
"Two human friends, when did my sister get to Thorn City?"
"Oh, that elf seems to have arrived at our gate at this time last night," Jack replied.
"But you're also lucky, if you go to other gates, you may not know if your sister is here."
"Then she should be in the Marquis's Mansion now," the smile on the corner of the forest elf boy's mouth gradually became weird.
"It should be there, after all, our Marquis doesn't want other greedy nobles, he is still very friendly to your forest, and it was thanks to the assistance of our Marquis that he let your compatriots go" Mark walked ahead with a proud smile on his face.
Suddenly, there was a low voice in his ears, Mark turned his head to look, the hair on his body immediately stood up, his feet couldn't help but tremble, his body couldn't move, and his frightened pupils contracted sharply.
His good brother Jack was clamped by an arm from behind, his body was off the ground, his feet kicked wildly in the air, and his face turned red.
"Black... Darkness, elf" each tooth shuddered as Mark struggled to pronounce these syllables.
Silver hair shining in the white moonlight, and there was no trace of emotion in the scarlet pupils, it was Ayton.
Click... The neck bone broke, and Jack's eyes rolled up, completely losing his struggle.
"You... You.. Mark took a few steps back in horror, and then felt a flower in front of him, and the dark elf had pressed in front of him, choking him by the throat.
"Help... Help" Mark grabbed the dark elf's arm weakly, and a faint cry for help came from his mouth, but this could not reach anyone's ears in the night air.
"Answer my question, I'll let you go" Ayton looked coldly at the guard in front of him.
"How much more do you know about that female forest elf last night?"
"I... I don't know" Mark struggled and shook his head, he really didn't know much about the forest elves. Suddenly, I felt a little more strength in my neck, and then... Completely lost his voice.
Ayton grimaced his face, his hands on his chest, and reverted to his human form, dragging the bodies of two normal human guards into the shadows of the alley.
It wasn't that he deliberately strangled them to death, but that it would prevent bloodshed and the smell from escaping.
I have no grievances with you, but we have different positions, so please ... Go to hell.
Marquis' Palace, right... Gallodis, wait for me, don't be deceived by that marquis.
......
"Miss Bilodis, I'm sorry, we still haven't found your sister," Fnovic sincerely bowed slightly to the tall female forest elf in front of him.
"Hmph, sure enough, I'll go find it myself, don't stop me again!" Bilodis was very unhappy, she had been in the Marquis's Mansion for a day in vain, and there was no news at all.
"But we found out about your sister"
"What!" Bilodis's gaze snapped to the Marquis, with a hint of threat in her tone: "Didn't you just say that there was no news!
"I'm sorry, I just said that I still haven't found your sister, but I found out that there is news about your sister" Marquis Fnovich bowed slightly, with great respect for the forest elf powerhouse in front of him.
In this regard, the eyelids of the Dubai manager on the side couldn't help jumping, the Marquis actually put such a low posture towards a forest elf who makes a living, he is worthy of being a person who can achieve great things, and can bend and stretch.
Birodis's eyes were slightly stunned, this human was right, she was too impatient, and she couldn't help but feel a little sorry for the human in front of her.
"Here, I want to say sorry first, there is still an underground auction in the city of thorns that I rule."
"Is my sister there?"
"I can only say that I was there, bought by a nobleman two days ago, and now it is likely to be ......," Vonovich said, taking out a glowstone and projecting a picture on the table, which showed a forest elf girl being exchanged for a commodity with a human nobleman.
The elf girl is Cui Bisi, and the evidence is ironclad!
"Human... Noble!" Birodis suddenly felt the world spinning, and four blood marks pierced out of her palm, but she still couldn't solve the grief and anger in her heart.
Emerald Bessi... What will be the consequences of falling into the hands of the human aristocracy, just look at the compatriots who committed suicide in the Asahi Mountains that day.
"That damn it... Where's the noble!" Billodis bit out the words between her teeth.
"His name is Rust Willy, and he is a loyal count of King Shine Blue in the southern region of the Thornlands, and he is still in Thorns."
The last sentence spurred Billodis fiercely, and her angry voice was eager: "Thorn City, where is he now?"
"He's right now—" Speaking of this, Fnovich suddenly changed his words: "With all due respect, your sister is likely to have an accident right now." ”
"I don't care! I'm going to see her with my own eyes anyway and slaughter that nobleman!" Bilodice's eyes almost burst into flames.
"But this is likely to anger King Shineblue, and in my city, an earl has died inexplicably—" Fnovic looked at Bilodis in embarrassment, waiting for her to reply.
Birodis took a rare moment to calm down, pondered the stakes, and then looked at Vnovich seriously.
"I promise you as Brodis Morninglight, the Commander of the Elven Rangers, that I will help you clarify the situation when the time comes, trust me!"
