Chapter 248: Moon Shadow
Although in the second half of his life, the once glorious dwarven king has been secretly placed under house arrest by the elves, and his words and deeds are closely monitored, but he still managed to leave a document, hoping that future generations can break away from the control of the elves in the future and revive the dwarven clan.
And this information was obtained by Hesfa in an unexpected situation decades ago.
At this time, the dwarves have already been completely mastered by the elves, and the dwarf king is a puppet supported by the elves, and many dwarves are also dead set on the elves.
But there is also discontent. The oppression of the dwarves by the elves still provokes the revolt of many dwarves, and in fact, this sentiment has always existed.
At that time, Hesfa, who was just a dwarven general, was also one of the radicals who held this sentiment, and he couldn't get used to seeing the tribesmen's obedience to the elves, let alone the elves' condescending faces.
After learning the truth of history, Hesfa was even more determined to take the dwarves out of the elven kingdom, he was originally born in an ancient family among the dwarves whose ancestors were said to have served as dwarven kings, and he was brave in battle, quite prestigious in the clan, and had many supporters.
Under his secret contact, many dwarven tribes secretly united and secretly planned to leave the elven kingdom en masse.
However, Hesfa's actions did not last long, and the elves soon noticed his unusual behavior, fortunately, before the elves could figure out what Hesfa had done. War broke out.
When the Erathian Empire was on the verge of extinction, the Ofer Kingdom of the evil alliance that thought it was in sight of victory brazenly burned the flames of war into the forests of Turalion, which angered the elves who had been staying out of the way, and with the lobbying after Catherine's return, the elven kingdom was finally added to this unprecedented war.
Hesfa took advantage of this opportunity to escape the elves' surveillance, and after the end of this great war that affected all the countries on the continent, he had successfully mastered nearly half of the army of the dwarves and had the support of many dwarven heroes and generals, and the largest division in the history of the dwarves began.
Not all dwarves believed Hesfar's words. The authenticity of the information has also been questioned by some of the dwarves, who have been very successful in their brainwashing efforts, who believe that Hosfar's actions are a betrayal of the ancient covenant.
The dwarves who supported Hersfa believed that the elves had used despicable means to enslave the dwarves, and that the ancient covenant was enforced under unequal conditions, and there was no need to keep it.
Neither side could convince anyone, in order not to waste time and give the elves who were also greatly injured in the war a chance to deal with him, Hesfar could only make a reluctant decision to leave the elven kingdom with the dwarves who supported him first.
This is the dwarven exodus that shook the continent that year.
The forest dwarves, led by Hesfar, managed to break away from the elven kingdom, leaving the forest and crossing Hammondal, then a disputed place, and then following the instructions of the document, they came to the undead borderlands of Bairders, and began to search for the huge mineral deposits described in the data.
In order to distinguish themselves from those who still succumbed to the power of the elves, and out of disgust with the elves, they no longer called themselves forest dwarves, but called themselves hill dwarves.
The hill dwarves were lucky, their departure was too sudden, the elves were caught off guard, and the united dwarves were not weak. It was because they had not yet recovered from the serious losses of the war, and the elves, who were afraid of causing a civil war, could only watch them leave.
Later, a series of rebellions in the elven kingdom caused by the dwarves' exodus also made the elves extremely big and busy fighting fires everywhere. As a result, it was impossible to organize forces to crusade against the hill dwarves who had not yet established themselves in Baildus.
It was the hill dwarves who were able to sweep away the undead creatures in Baildus with peace of mind, and built a stone castle, which became a small force of its own and began to make a fortune in the arms business.
Nowadays, among the forest dwarves, the influence of the exodus of the hill dwarves is still there, and more and more dwarves are beginning to doubt the truth, and the free and easy lifestyle of the hill dwarves is also the envy of them, and this trend of thought is slowly spreading, although the elves are trying to remedy, increasing the control of the dwarves, but also began to improve the treatment of the dwarves. However, that kind of small favor has now lost its due role.
These things, Chen Jian listened to Malkem, a mouthy dwarven magic master, while chatting.
Originally, Jian Chen was a little skeptical about the authenticity of this story, but after being stunned by what happened to the centaurs, he was already convinced of it.
Because of these things, Jian Chen is now disgusted with the elven race,... The blade is against racial discrimination. In his opinion, it was very immoral to treat a creature with a cowardly creature with a centaur pattern in this way.
The Elven King Parson didn't know what Jian Chen thought of the Elves, and he thought that he still had a chance to trick Jian Chen into coming to Turalone.
His punishment is the use of beauty tricks.
The appearance of the elves has always been one of their proud capitals, and the elven beauties are extremely lethal to races such as humans.
In fact, although the elves were opposed to intermarriage, this did not prevent rulers such as Parr from using such means to achieve certain ends that they considered profitable.
This is not the first time this has been done, and it will not be the last.
The elf king who has been a concubine will secretly form a secret army composed of elf girls. These elven girls have been selected by a thousand people. Each of them has come out of the class, they not only have to learn how to seduce men of other races, but also learn espionage activities such as assassination, espionage, stealing, etc., and they all have good martial arts.
In history, the elves have used this secret army to spy and rebel against other countries many times, and have been successful repeatedly, they are not easy to dispatch, but as long as they are dispatched, they will successfully bring such and such huge benefits to the elf kingdom.
Of course, their existence is not known to outsiders. Even in the elven kingdom, they are shadows.
This secret unit is the Moon Shadow
This time, in order to figure out the relationship between Jian Chen and the Elemental Clan, and for the powerful treasures that Jian Chen might have in his hands, the Elf King finally decided to use the "Moon Shadow".
He was absolutely confident in the success of the operation.
On this day, Jian Chen followed the army of the elves and had already left the realm of Hammondal.
The elven army is not moving fast. This is the result of deliberate control by some people Chen Jian didn't know about it, but he didn't object to it, because Chen Jian was not a person who liked war, rather than going to the battlefield to fight to the death, such a slow march seemed to be good, although it was a little boring.
Jian Chen sometimes wondered how good it would be if the war could be over before he joined the battlefield, and how much control he would have over Catherine's troops was not within his consideration.
Speaking of which, Jian Chen agreed to Catherine's request. It's more about using Catherine's influence to keep Hammondale safe, rather than really coveting this powerful force.
These days, he also feels it deeply. How difficult it is for this emperor team to be subdued, they don't agree with Jian Chen.
Jian Chen couldn't figure out why Catherine was so confident in herself, as if she thought that as long as Jian Chen agreed, this matter would be a sure thing.
As it approached dusk, the army stopped and began to set up camp.
The camp site chosen by the elven army is quite good, and there is a small river with clear water on the side. It was quite easy to get water.
Chen Jian and his people also began to camp and rest, there were loyal lord guards, of course he didn't have to worry about his tent, even if sometimes he wanted to get close to the soldiers and help on the side, he would be resolutely rejected by the soldiers.
These soldiers are willing to help Chen Jian do everything they can from the bottom of their hearts, and it is an incomparably honorable thing for them to serve Chen Jian.
So every time he set up camp, the only thing Chen Jian could do was to sit on the side and watch quietly. Soldiers who don't even need to be trained to command don't need to command how to set up camp.
In order not to waste time, Chen Scrap usually meditates at this time.
Ever since the sorceress was seriously injured by Moryl in order to save herself, Jian Chen has suddenly become diligent in the cultivation of magic, in fact, he has always been diligent, but now he is much more diligent.
He didn't want that again. He didn't want to be a man who couldn't even protect his own woman, although he also knew that his strength was not in his personal strength, and he also knew that his magical qualifications were really enough, but he still desperately wanted to make himself stronger.
And so much magical knowledge is not enough to make use of it, isn't it too wasteful?
The lord's diligence influenced many of the Hammondale soldiers under his command, so before he knew it, the soldiers were becoming more and more diligent and serious in their daily training.
"Your Excellency Chen Jian is really a different person, with your current status, it is really admirable that you can be so strict with yourself."
A sudden pleasant female voice interrupted Jian Chen's meditation, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that a miserable elven beauty was standing not far in front of him, looking at him with a smile.
This situation made the female magician standing behind Jian Chen couldn't help but snort coldly, she found that this female elf had appeared by Jian Chen's side too often these days.
