Chapter 119: The Betrayed Lover
Claude's accusation left Natalia speechless, and she couldn't figure out why Marris wanted to do something to the Hippogriff, when the guards were fighting the fire before, they had already found that the original fire was the Hippogriff under the watchtower, and the arsonist even locked all the Hippogriffs in the corral, apparently the purpose was to burn all the Hippogriffs, and the Watchtower was set on fire was more like an accident, because when the watchtower was set on fire, Marris had already left and headed for the direction of the fortress gate.

Originally a powerful predator living in the forests of the Grey Valley and the Black Sea, the Hippogriff was proud and full of spirituality, with a pair of beautiful antlers on their heads, from the head and neck to the front paws and tail were like an eagle, with brightly colored feathers, and from the waist to the hind hooves were the shape of a deer, full of strength and beauty, combined with their natural closeness to nature, the Night Elves generally believed that the origin of the Hippogriff was related to the demigod Cenarius.
After years of domestication by the Night Elves, the Hippogriff can understand most commands, and most Night Elves see the Hippogriff not only as a mount, but also as their companion and family.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Claude, who loves horned eagles, feels unusual grief at the tragic death of these horned eagles in his care.
However, Natalia suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, Marlis did this, most likely so that the news in the fortress could not be transmitted to the outside world, and it was obvious that this was the request of the man behind the scenes.
Considering that the mastermind behind the scenes seems to be extremely keen on the corruption of the elves, if the fortress falls into the hands of these corrupted elves, the outside world will not be aware of it, no one will know anything about what is happening in Silisus, and even worse is that the elves who come here will be captured and then corrupted by that evil tentacle, and the fortress originally used to defend against the invasion of the Zerg has become a passage for the invasion of the Zerg, which will be a real nightmare.
Thinking of this, Natalia couldn't sit still, and now she could only pray that Vis would stop Marris, but the guards who ran in from outside the barracks directly dashed Natalia's hopes, and his voice trembled with fear: "Run!" There are a large number of xenomorphs crawling up from below! ”
Saying that the guard was about to leave, Natalia hurriedly grabbed the guard: "Have you seen your captain?" ”
"Captain Ves? I didn't see it, I just saw countless xenomorphs crawling up! With that, the guard ran to inform the others.
Now Natalia can guess that Vis didn't stop Marlis, and now that the fortress has been breached, the Night Elves have no other way to choose than to leave the fortress!
But what about these wounded people with limited mobility? Natalia had no way to leave the wounded behind, and she eventually let the lightly wounded support each other, while the seriously wounded Claude had to be carried out of the barracks by two guards on a door panel.
As soon as she came to the position of the barracks gate, Natalia saw the person she wanted to see the most, but she also did not want to see the person she wanted, Marlis, who was wrapped in a black carapace all over her body, was leaning against the trunk of a tree next to the road, obviously waiting for Natalia, and Marlis's side was a large group of xenomorphs of different shapes and colors, but these ferocious and hideous xenomorphs in the past were now like hunting dogs that had been raised by Marris, silently blocking these wounded and Natalia at the gate of the barracks.
Seeing Marris, whose image and temperament had become completely unfamiliar, Natalia's mood suddenly became like a mess, she looked at her husband's familiar and unfamiliar face, but tears couldn't stop flowing: "You used to be the commander who guarded this fortress for hundreds of years, but now you want to destroy your fortress with your own hands?" What kind of evil is it that has deceived you and made you commit such a great mistake! ”
However, Natalia's tears are destined to have no value, and Marris's three views that have been corrupted by Cthun have been completely distorted, and for the current Marris, as long as it is beneficial to Cthun, no matter how unconscionable it is, he will not hesitate to do it, but even so, Marris is still subconsciously refusing to cause harm to Natalia.
Marlis's expression was still so indifferent, and he even smiled: "Dear Natalia, I don't want to hurt you, but it's my duty, so even if you can't understand it now, I'm going to take you away, and when you have seen the greatness of your master, you will agree with me, and then we can still be the same as before!" ”
"Nope! Don't you think! I'm not going to go with you! Natalia drew a dagger and pointed its sharp blade to her throat, "Kill me!" Or let us go! ”
Marlis's expression became serious: "Are you threatening me with yourself?" Natalia? Do you think death is the end? In front of the great master, don't try to escape even if you die! ”
After saying that, Maris raised his right hand and commanded the xenomorphs behind him, "Catch them!" Live or die! ”
Then Marlis waved his right hand, and the xenomorph insects that had formed a semicircle to block the wounded at the door moved, roaring towards the group of wounded like a flood that burst the embankment, and Natalia saw that she could not make Marris change her mind, so she had to put down her dagger and retreat into the barracks with the wounded little by little.
Fortunately, although these wounded were all injured, with the support of Natalia's healing spells, they still managed to stop the steady stream of xenomorphs by leaning on the narrow space and thick walls at the gate of the barracks.
However, behind the barracks is a cliff, so although the wounded have kept the xenomorphs out of the barracks, they themselves have also fallen into a situation where there is no way out.
Obviously, Marris is also very aware of this, and because of this, he did not rush to let the xenomorphs force their way through the barracks gate, and as time goes by, these wounded in the barracks, lacking food and water, will collapse on their own sooner or later, so just wait patiently.
But Marris did not know that at this time in the barracks, Claude, who was lying on the plank, had already put the whistle hanging around his neck in his mouth, and he blew it with all his might, and with the whistle, a horned eagle beast with beautiful emerald green feathers swooped down from the sky like an arrow!
