Chapter 263: Under the Fence, Please Bow Your Head (First Update)
In the Lake of the Dead, the Tree of Life, the council chamber of the druids. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The battle against the invasion has finally come to an end, and important people have gathered here to confide.
"The casualties have not yet been fully counted, and we can only roughly extrapolate."
Mira's face was ugly.
The tragedy of this war was beyond her imagination.
"Five druids died, and the elven guards lost 32, including 3 squad leaders. At least 12 magical creatures have been killed for refusing our calls. Mira whispered, "The fire was so sudden, half of the people were killed by the fire, including the two Ancient Guardians. ”
The Marquis of Liszt was too well prepared.
Although he had expected that the other party was likely to use fire attacks, he did not expect that it was not the mage who summoned flames, but a flammable substance directly created by alchemy.
Special solutions that resemble "black powder", but are much more effective than black powder, are packed in sealed bags. Once thrown out and exploded into the air, it will explode violently and burn. A palm-sized bag of solution can ignite a towering tree 30 meters tall and more than two meters in diameter.
There were at least a dozen people, filled with a bag full of this solution!
They are all extremely fast stalkers who are responsible for lighting fires in the forest. The druids and the elven guards tried desperately to stop them, but they couldn't stop a few.
"That's the solution." Estelle took out a small bag and placed it on the stone platform.
"We'll talk about that later." The Grand Druid looked at Mira and said, "What is the general situation of the invaders?" ”
Mira said: "Roughly estimated, if you don't count those slaves, the invaders are about three hundred, most of them are adventurers, and some of them should be from the Marquis Liszt's mansion, and the assassins dispatched by the Blood Blade are about thirty." ”
She reported a set of data.
At least ninety percent of the invaders were left behind in the Sacred Death Forest forever, including an archmage.
The archmage from the Twin Serpent family was killed by the combination of the Grand Druid and Master Seino, and he didn't even have a chance to escape.
"He is the only archmage of the Twin Serpent Family. According to his seniority, he is even a generation higher than the Marquis of Liszt, and is the uncle of the Marquis Liszt. The archmage was sent to the Magic Acropolis to learn spells when he was very young, and he rarely went back, so not many people even in the Twin Snake Family knew about him. Morgana said.
The intelligence network of the City Lord's Mansion of Pegasus City is very powerful, but these intelligence networks, the City Lord is open to Morgana, so she knows much more than others. She knows a lot of very secret things.
In addition to the Archmage, there were at least seven Tier 4 Professionals, including three Master Assassins.
"Three Master Assassins, all of whom appeared in the Lake of the Holy Dead. The teacher killed one, and two escaped. ”
Regret was evident on Mira's face.
Master Assassin's survivability is too strong. If you want to escape, it's hard to stop. In particular, the Grand Druid and Master Seynos were too busy dealing with the Archmage to take care of them.
"I killed one of them." Gavin said.
Mira glanced at him, obviously surprised by his strength, but quickly nodded, "That's the general situation." ”
The Grand Druid and the Elven Lord glanced at each other, then said, "The Druid will be responsible for healing the wounded forest." As for the Scarlet Blade and the Twin Snake Family......"
He shook his head, because it was difficult.
The foundation of the Scarlet Blade is not in the Flame King City, but in the Hungry Wolf Principality, and it is basically impossible to deal with this organization.
The Twin Snake Family has been operating in the Flame Kingdom and even the entire Holy Griffin Empire for thousands of years, and it is deeply rooted. Although the foundation is in the city of the Seven Marquis, the distance is not far. However, Green Leaf City nominally belonged to the Flame King City after all, and it was impossible for him to directly start a war against the Twin Snake Clan.
"The feeling of being under the fence...... Oh no! Gavin sighed, not uttered.
The legacy left by the Holy Druid cannot be abandoned, but the elves from the East cannot enter the kingdom of the gods in a big way. The elven race's god system is too strong, and the racial strength is too strong to compete with humans, and it is impossible for humans to allow them to establish a kingdom on their own territory.
Therefore, there are only a few hundred elves who have come here, and the Green Leaf City established will nominally be under the command of the Flame Kingdom and obey the dispatch of the Flame Kingdom.
This is the bottom line of humanity.
If you dare to touch this bottom line, then these elves will be driven back to the elven forest!
So all along, the elves have been in a dilemma, and now it is even more so.
"Go to war! War must be waged! Master Seinos cried out, "We can't hold back any longer! Three hundred years, at least a dozen elves have been snatched by hateful humans, and I'm fed up! Go to war against the Twin Snake Family! Kill Liszt! ”
He was very excited and angry, and strongly demanded a war against the Twin Snake Clan.
The blood-colored blade is too far away, and there is no way, the double snake family is right under the nose, why do you have to endure it?
"Seinos, we don't have the strength to wage war against the Twin Serpents. The number of elves is too small, even if we defeat ten by one, even if we kill Liszt in the end, how many members will we lose? The Elven Lord shook his head and said, "My proposal is the same as it was three hundred years ago. ”
He glanced at Gavin, who quickly got up and took his leave.
Obviously, what he is going to say below should not be known to outsiders.
In fact, what kind of decision the elves will make in the end, he can guess without listening, it is nothing more than compromise and more compromises.
Although the elves are arrogant and think highly of themselves, they have to swallow this breath if they don't want to swallow it, unless they plan to leave here and return to the Eastern Elf Forest.
However, Gavin was well aware that it was impossible for the elves to leave the Sacred Death Forest.
The ruins of the Saint Druids must be guarded, not to mention that they have been operating here for three hundred years, cultivating hundreds of magical creatures, at least dozens of Ancient Guardians, and hundreds of thousands of Elven Ancient Trees.
What's more, there is also the lake of the holy death, and the tree of life in the lake of the holy death.
Even in the Elven Forest, there aren't too many Trees of Life.
Any tree of life is a foundation that cannot be abandoned. For the elves, the importance of the tree of life is still above that of the legendary powerhouse.
The feelings of the elves towards the elven ancient tree, especially the tree of life, are not understandable to outsiders. They did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for the sake of the tree of life.
And Gavin also learned another piece of information from the Great Druid:
The leaf of life, the same origin as the tree of life, is a cane left by the saint-druid, one in glory and one in loss.
The leaf of life must not be left on the tree of life for too long, or it will surely wither.
The Tree of Life is also inseparable from the Leaf of Life, otherwise it would not be able to condense so much water of life, nor would it be able to prosper this entire forest.
So, the elves had no choice.
They can only compromise!
