A few minutes later, Touching Fish had already walked over with a few guys in black robes who couldn't see the specific faces, but it seemed that the other party was not forcibly captured, but voluntarily followed, because there was no trace of the battle on everyone's body.

"Boss, these guys"

As soon as he wanted to introduce the general situation, the guy in charge had already lifted his hood directly, revealing a rather young face, and then several people behind him also lifted their hoods, revealing their true faces.

Sienna behind Levi suddenly let out a low cry and covered her mouth, and even Levi looked at each other in surprise.

It's not because of how handsome the other party is, nor because of the other party's black hair and black eyes, but because of the other party's ears, which are not the round ears that ordinary humans have, he is a half-elf with pointed ears, and although the few people who follow him have different hair color and pupil color, they are all half-elves!

"You're the knight of the kingdom from Bretonnia, Lord Levi?" Although he used a questioning tone, the other party's eyes looked at Levi with great certainty, and Levi immediately knew that the other party was prepared, but his intelligence was a little behind.

So he nodded briskly, "That's right, I'm Levi, but I'm not a knight of the kingdom, but an expeditionary knight, I don't know what you call it?" ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the half-elf's eyes, and he nodded slightly to Levi before continuing, "I'm Reiner, and as you can see, I'm a half-elf, and I'm a half-elf who has a grudge against Warblade Lambert. ”

The half-elf who called himself Reiner spoke in a calm tone, and there was not much expression on his face, but there was a deep hatred in his eyes that could not be concealed, and it was obvious that this hatred would definitely not be small.

Livingston was a little interested, "If you don't mind, how about telling us the details?" ”

Halflings were a much worse race than halflings in the Old World, because they were not only very weak and few in number, but also had no towns of any size.

Although the halflings are weak in their own right, they are all good cooks, and they are good at patting and hugging their thighs, so on the border in the southeast of the empire, they also have a city of their own - mut, and the empire will also protect them from the invasion of beastmen and undead.

In this war-torn world, weakness itself is an original sin, and the half-elves are often the favorite targets of many slave traders because of their handsome appearance. Those slave traders are not stupid, they have to worry about the retaliation of relatives and friends of other races and forces if they catch them, but the half-elves are caught in vain, and they don't have to worry about any consequences at all.

Of course, there are basically only humans who do this, and for many aliens, humans are just enemies and food like half-elves, and basically only humans and dark elves like to catch slaves, but the two are different in the way they use slaves.

Half of the slaves caught by human beings depend on their appearance, and only those who are good-looking can be sold for a large price.

The dark elves take slaves to see if they are physically strong enough, and the weak ones can't afford to do so much of their hard work, and if they die after a few days of mining, they won't waste enough time.

But even so, the mortality rate of dark elf slaves is more than ninety percent, so their Black Ark fleet is always looting, not only for money, but also for slaves, because without slaves, all their social production activities will stop, and the dark elves themselves will not mine.

So for various reasons, over time, the number of half-elves in the entire old world is also declining rapidly, after all, the half-elves themselves are a small race with a small population.

And so far, except for Sienna and the half-elves in Hope Valley, Levi has never seen the half-elf race anywhere else, and Sienna even desperately thought that they were the last survivors, so she couldn't suppress her excitement when she saw each other just now.

"Of course, it's the right thing to do." Reiner, the half-elf, bowed gracefully again before he began to tell the whole story.

It turned out that he belonged to a small half-elf village dozens of miles away, but a few days ago, they were raided by a human army, and the entire village was only a few hundred people, so it was wiped out in an instant, only Reiner was lucky enough to escape because he was out hunting with a few people to get food, but when he returned, he was faced with a village burning in the fire.

In addition to his grief, he also discovered a very strange place, the enemy not only robbed their village of supplies, killed all the resisters, and then burned the village, but also took away all the corpses of the half-elves, and using the corpses is usually something that only the most evil undead do!

So in the next few days, the half-elf Reiner led several survivors to launch a targeted investigation, and after many efforts, they finally determined the target, which was Warblade Lambert!

Just after seeing Levi's argument with Warblade Lambert, he finally decided to stand up and take the initiative to explain all this, because it was obvious that with the strength of a few of them, it would never be possible to take revenge on Warblade Lambert, and he had to and could only seek help from outside forces.

Levi nodded clearly, if this is the case, then some of his doubts before can be solved, Lambert of the War Blade set off before them, but arrived at the Nord Territory one step late, and almost no one on the road has seen their traces, it turns out that they are collecting supplies along the way in this way.

And Levi suspects that the half-elves are probably one of the victims, and the warblade Lambert originally brought tens of thousands of troops, how much supplies can Leiner provide in their half-elf village of hundreds of people, and it is estimated that more villages have been killed by them, so there is no information leaked out.

However, now that Levi knows about this matter, he must report the situation to the Nord Commander, and let him see how many villages in the territory have suffered misfortunes, although the half-elves are not the same as humans, but since the other party dares to survive in the Nord Territory, he will definitely have to pay taxes to the Nord Commander or something, and the battle blade Lambert has also moved the dishes on the Elector's plate.

And when he fought against the undead in the previous ambush, Levi also seemed to have found some skeletons with slightly special bones, but he didn't care about it at all, and now it seems that it is very likely that the corpses of those half-elves have been wasted.

But speaking of which, those half-elves are too much of a chicken, if some of them are a little stronger, and they are transformed into high-level undead after death, instead of all of them turning into skeleton soldiers, maybe Levi can find out a little earlier...

Levi suddenly remembered something, "Hmm, a few days ago, were you secretly spying on Lambert's military camp?" ”

On the first night of Warblade Lambert's stay in the Nord territory, Levi also led his subordinates to quietly scout for information, and then the half-elf female assassins under his command discovered the strange whereabouts of the black-robed man, but the other party's speed was amazing, they couldn't catch up at all, and now it seems that most of them are the guys in front of them.

Sure enough, the half-elf Reiner nodded without hesitation and admitted, "That's right, since that guy didn't leave any clues after the murder, I can only scout all the suspicious targets in turn, but now that I have determined that it must have been done by Warblade Lambert, I hope that your lord can help us take revenge and make him pay for it!" ”

Levi narrowed his eyes, "Revenge, how do you want revenge?" ”

The half-elf Reiner immediately said categorically: "The blood debt must be paid in blood, and I am willing to take out the treasure of the village as a reward!" ”

As he spoke, his face was full of determination, and it was clear that even if Levi did not agree to the other party's request, he would not change his decision, and he would still try to get revenge on Warblade Lambert in other ways.

The system's prompt popped up immediately, saying that he had triggered a revenge mission called Reiner, the goal was to destroy Lambert the Blade, and kill at least 1515 of the opponent's subordinates, which was 5 times the number of dead half-elves, and after the mission was successful, he would get the remaining property of the half-elf village and the mysterious treasure of Reiner.

During this time, Reiner will join Levi with his remaining minions, and if Reiner himself dies in battle, or if Lambert is killed by someone else, the mission will end in failure, and Levi will get nothing.

This task is not too demanding, so Levi smiled, "Very good, then we have a common goal now, in the meantime, you can follow us for the time being." By the way, what's the name of your village? ”

The real reason is of course not only because they have a common goal, but also because Levi still has some suspicions, the identity of the half-elf in front of him does not seem to be as simple as he said, ordinary half-elves are busy fighting for survival all day long, and there is no time to train any etiquette.

But although the contact time was very short, Levi found that the other party was probably better than the great nobles of the empire in terms of etiquette and manners, and the few half-elves behind the other party also seemed to have a little problem, not only because the other party looked much stronger than ordinary half-elves, but also because when Reiner just talked about these things, those guys didn't seem to show much hatred at all, just looked at and listened so plainly, like an outsider.

And most importantly, the quest hint says Reiner's revenge, not the half-elf Reiner, and the reward is also provided by Reiner. But that's right, it's difficult for ordinary half-elves to achieve even the most basic purpose of being alive, what treasure can they have?

All in all, the true identity of this half-elf who calls himself Reiner is definitely not as simple as he says!

Hearing Levi's answer, the half-elf Ryan suddenly looked happy, but he quickly suppressed his mood, reached out and took out a parchment scroll from his waist, and handed it to Levi, "My lord, our village is called Dolka, and this is one of the collections of our village. ”

After Levi took the things, the half-elf Reiner saluted Levi again, and then very consciously walked behind Levi with a few subordinates, keeping it at about ten meters, which was a safe distance, and it could be seen that he was very conscious, knowing that it was impossible for him to gain Levi's trust when he first arrived, so he didn't get too close.

Levi secretly sighed mentally, then looked at the parchment scroll in his hand, and then he became more and more sure that the identity of the other party was definitely not simple.

Majestic, there are some people who do nothing, just stand there, and the strength, self-confidence and majesty that emanates from them can motivate their subordinates to fight hard, with the wielder as the center, the morale of friendly units within twenty meters in diameter is increased by 2, and the resistance to all skills that can reduce morale is slightly increased.

Although the range of twenty meters in diameter does not play much role for Levi, who has thousands of troops under his command, this is not only a relatively rare battle skill, but also a passive aura skill, it is permanently effective, just this point, let its value increase exponentially, it seems that this mysterious Reiner is worried that Levi will not act actively after receiving the task, so he used such a skill to motivate him.

Levi felt that the other party was really thinking too much, and he couldn't wait to cut off the head of the blade Lambert right now, and then cut off the head of the northern eagle and let Reinhardt replace him!

But it doesn't matter, this Reiner doesn't seem to have any intention of taking refuge with himself now, and Levi naturally doesn't need to talk to him so much, so after he finished learning the skills, he directly commanded the troops to start the return journey, it's time to meet the emperor!

However, when Levi was still a few miles away from the city, he suddenly received a system prompt, he couldn't help but be very curious to click on it and check it, and then he found an unexpected surprise, it turned out that he sent Mina to help the emperor control the armillary sphere, and it was unknowingly completed.

Leviston laughed, he was one of the few people who knew the details of this matter, not even the Eagle Eye of the Women's Federation, the reason why the Emperor had to quietly recruit a sky mage to control the armillary sphere was to be able to accurately predict when and where the Norska pirates were about to attack, and then carry out targeted ambushes.

Although the Nord Territory also had a small fleet, about twenty or thirty ships, the Norska pirates on the other side of the sea had gathered hundreds of thousands of people, and most of them used small dragon ships that could carry a dozen or dozens of people, and now they were already scattered throughout the Talon Sea like spider webs.

The fleet of the Nord Leader did not dare to show their heads at all, otherwise they would be chased and beaten by hundreds of times the Norscan pirate ships in an instant, and they would be scared after several heavy defeats, so they would not play any role in reconnaissance at all.

Although the Emperor's fleet was powerful, they were a magic weapon used to ambush and win, and of course the Emperor would not send them to show up at this time, so in the end the Emperor decided to use the armillary sphere instead of reconnaissance.

That's right, the armillary sphere is not an offensive weapon, it is used for prediction, and Levi only learned after listening to the emperor's words that sky mages can not only use wind and lightning spells, they also have a name called astrologer, they can predict certain actions of the enemy by observing the movement of the stars!

Although it sounds incredible, it is true, but even if it is a sky mage, only a very few outstanding people can master this ability, so in the absence of a sky mage, even the two legendary mages are helpless, and finally have to let Mina, an outsider, play, after all, Mina is now a hero-level unit, even if she has never used an armillary sphere before, she can play a much greater role than ordinary mages.

Now that the system prompts him that the mission has been successful, it means that the real war is about to start, how can Levi not be happy?!
