【Chapter 372】 Elven Past

It should be a refugee who escaped by luck after being attacked by a fish monster. What should I do?Rena?" Iluri has a straightforward personality, but she is very kind at heart, and when she sees this poor little girl, she feels compassion: "When the fish monster rushes out at night, she will definitely die." ”

Eslena was also not hard-hearted, and frowned slightly: "I know, but there is no shelter on the coast. Our rash appearance will arouse the alarm of the knights. See, there's a knight patrolling around the camp. ”

Their identities are a little sensitive, and it is inconvenient for them to appear in public.

"It's here. ”

As they spoke, the two knights patrolled along the shore, and although their eyesight was a little worse, they also heard the whimper of the sea breeze.

Under the nervous gaze of the three of Iruli, the two knights successfully found the little girl, and stood still for a while, one of the knights returned to the camp, and the other crouched down, as if to check the lying figure.

After a while, a middle-aged man in a gray-black mage robe walked out of the camp, with gray hair and a steady pace, all the way to the little girl's position.

The mage also seemed to examine the figure on the ground, and then crouched down to question the little girl. After another moment, the middle-aged mage took the little girl's hand, and the other two knights carried a figure back to the camp.

"That little girl should be fine. ”

With the mage present, he couldn't make a move. However, the prosperity of the city of Arabe is inseparable from the kindness and friendliness of its mage association. However, Eslena was still a little worried: "But it's only temporarily safe, I'm afraid of the invasion of fish monsters at night......"

"The girl looked so pitiful, and the person being carried must be her relative. Eliel is also a soft-hearted person: "I just don't know whether to die or live." ”

"Maybe she's lucky, too. Iluri sighed faintly, "At least she's still alive." ”

The night was getting thicker and thicker, the damp sea breeze carried the shade to the bone, and the black sea was constantly surging with miserable white spray on the shore.

Although dozens of torches were lit in the knight's camp, compared to the long, vast coastline with rocky shoals, it was like lighting a match in the open night, and it didn't shine far at all.

And the darkness is the fish monster's favorite moment.

From dusk to midnight, the tranquil coastline ebbs and flows, repeating the cycle of eternity. The torches in the knights' camp were extinguished somewhat, but they did not let their guard down, and continued to send knights to carry torches and patrol along the coastline.

Yawn~~

Iruli yawned against the trunk of the tree and wrapped her cloak.

"Iluri, if you're tired, rest for a while, I'll keep an eye on you. ”

"It's okay, Rena. Iluli waved her hand: "After living in the city for so long, I almost forgot that I was born in the jungle. I remember when I was a child, my father took me on a hunt, and we lived in a tree for three days to catch a white moose. Haha......"

Laughing and laughing, her tone became hoarse, and it was evident that her father, a good and hearty hunter, loved nothing more than to make sweet wine from the berries she had gathered, and her favorite drink.

"Iluri......" Eslena sensed her sudden downturn.

Iluri sniffed, "I'm fine. ”

Eslena was silent and didn't speak, not just Iluri, each of them had a past that they couldn't look back on, it was a nightmarish memory that lingered.

The Eternal Forest, inhabited by elves, is located in the eastern part of the magical country of Kurminsk, a vast area and home to elven groups that have lived and thrived for thousands of years.

However, elves and humans do not get along well. Obsessed with magic, human mages are keen to dig up artifacts related to magic. The trees of the Eternal Hope Forest, on the other hand, are inextricably linked to the gods of the elves through a lush and intricate web of roots, and are capable of conducting magical energy.

For those mages, the Eternal Hope Tree is the best material for making staffs, and the deeper the forest, the taller and older the ancient wood, the more powerful the magic it can channel.

And the eternal hope forest, nourished by the power of the gods, is also constantly expanding its scope through the roots, which leads to the most fundamental conflict between the two sides.

Humans want to stop the expansion of their roots, and they are constantly cutting down trees to make staffs. And the elves will also take up arms to fight in order to protect the web of roots.

As a result, a war that has lasted for thousands of years has never ended.

In order to weaken the elves, the ruling class mobilized the entire country against the elves and allowed them to be sold as slaves. Because of this policy, there were countless slave-raiding mercenaries in the Kurminsk Empire, constantly invading along the borders, and most of the captured elves were reduced to efforts.

Iruri's hometown is located on the edge of the Eonwang Forest, and the village was completely burned down in a raid led by a nomage. The young Iluri was reduced to hard work, and after several sales, she came to the Duchy of Vendôme, where she fell into a tavern with the gimmick of exotic dancers......

The rest of the sisters had a similar experience to Iruri, but they were more miserable, some of them were not only dancers and slaves, but also playthings given to each other by nobles, and prostitutes.

The elves are clean by nature and have arrogant personalities, and countless female elves have committed suicide because they can't bear the insults.

Luckily, Iluli was very young when she was caught, thin as a bean sprout, and her long-term malnutrition made her look withered and very frightening.

Because of this, she is not even qualified to be a dancer, so she can only do chores backstage in the bar.

However, Esrena's experience is different from none of them, and she is not an elf who lives on the edge of the forest. In fact, before being captured, she was a member of the Elven Archer Troop, and because of her amazing archery skills, she became the captain of the rangers.

However, during an operation to rescue a border village, her archers encountered a well-planned ambush. The other party is a well-known mercenary group, and there are nearly ten mid-level wild mages alone.

In the fierce battle, the archers ran out of bows and arrows, and Esrena, with her ability to communicate with the Demon King, continued to summon magic arrows to resist stubbornly.

But in the end, Eslena was alone, and the other party shamelessly threatened the lives of her companions, so she had to put down her magic bow, be captured, and become a prisoner.

Just when she thought that this life would become miserable, fate gave her another glimmer of hope.

At a slave auction, Eslena's superb archery skills attracted the favor of a caravan leader from a foreign land, who he thought was a waste of talent to become a dancing prostitute.

Just when the leader of the caravan wanted to make a big deal in the Duchy of Vendon, and the flooding of pirates on the sea gave him a great headache, so he paid a lot of money to buy Eslena and become the caravan's guard.

Eslena did not disappoint him, and her superb archery skills became his greatest reliance on crossing the sea. In order to entrap Eslena and make her do her best to be loyal, the caravan leader did not feel sorry for her from beginning to end, and bullied her.

But this loyalty was not strong, and Esrena had been plotting her escape, and she followed the caravan to Arabe, and then to another city—until she met Iruli.

Their destinies converged and began to change.
