Chapter 489: War Beast
Elven City is quiet.
It doesn't look bustling, and it's not lively.
The bazaar was also quite depressed, and there were not many elves hanging out or trading.
Most of the elves are very slender.
Chu Xiaoye walked all the way and didn't see a fat man.
Willis led them into the castle and met Anne, who was standing in the doorway and being harshly interrogated, and the great black bear, who was speared at by the elven guards.
The sneer of the elven guards was very harsh: "Princess Anne? Is it the same Princess Anne who betrayed us and killed our companions? Oh, sorry, she's already gone with her little white tiger, we know her. You're not her. ”
Another elf guard even pulled out the knife at his waist and threatened: "Impostor, don't get out of here, don't blame us for being rude!" ”
Anne stood there, her eyes twinkling and her expression serious.
She didn't know how to justify.
Does she want to say that I am actually a shadow of that Lady Anne?
"She's the real Princess Anne."
At this time, Velis walked to Annie's side, looked at the guards with cold eyes, and said coldly: "That traitor is just an impostor who plays Princess Annie, and after we found out, he ran away, this is the real Princess Annie." ”
"Lord Veris! This ......"
When several guards heard this, they were stunned and didn't seem to believe it.
However, since they were accompanied and guaranteed by Lord Veris, they had nothing to embarrass about.
"Alright then, Ann...... Princess Anne, please come in. ”
They got out of the way.
The tallest castle is located on the top of the mountain, with clouds and mist on it, and the birds are singing and fragrant, like a fairyland, and it is the residence of the elven royal family.
However, Veris is not going to take them to the palace for the time being.
She led them to her mansion, a garden castle built on the edge of a cliff.
Although this castle is not as tall as the one where the royal family lives, it is also a symbol of nobility, and with the garden, it covers an area of at least 2,000 square meters.
And if you add the fiefdoms of Veris around you, the area is even more terrifying.
It seems to be a sparsely populated place.
Along the way, there were fields and landscapes, which were picturesque, and the ice and snow outside were completely two worlds, however, Chu Xiaoye didn't see many elves.
Even when I came to Veris's mansion, I didn't see a few elves.
Anne was also full of doubts, and couldn't help but ask: "Willis, why are there so few people?" Where have they all gone? ”
Willis led them into the garden and said calmly, "All dead." In the last war, 10,000 people died, and now, there are only more than 1,000 people in our city. Moreover, most of them are women and children. ”
She turned her head, looked at Anne, and said, "You saw all the guards who guarded the door just now?" They are all lucky ones who have just come of age and have not yet had time to go to the battlefield, and a few of them are still nobles. ”
Speaking of this, she sighed and said, "We don't have many of us anymore. If you can't lure her out and kill her this time, then soon she will take the enemy and level our city. When the time comes, our race will cease to exist. ”
Anne frowned and said solemnly, "Who is the enemy of our elven race?" ”
Willis walked in front, silent for a while, and said, "There are many, there are humans, there are orcs, and there are others...... Other elves. ”
"Other elves?"
Anne was even more puzzled.
Veris clenched the giant sword on her shoulder, the silver hair draped behind her was windless, and her eyes were cold and piercing: "Many of the elves captured by the orcs have become enemies, and they have given birth to more powerful offspring for the orcs. Most of our people died at the hands of those little monsters. ”
"Those little monsters are born with the talent of summoning war beasts, they have the agility of our elves, and they also have the muscles of orcs, which are very powerful."
Anne turned her head, looked at Chu Xiaoye, and muttered, "No wonder you always wanted a powerful war beast." ”
The garden is big and full of beautiful trees and flowers, they walked for a long time.
However, not a single elf was to be seen.
This beautiful place suddenly became a little cold.
As if to teach Anne a lesson, Veris continued, "When you came, you should have noticed the snow-covered forest outside, right? That's our elven race, the Ice and Snow Guardian Forest that has been passed down from ancient times, and has always protected us from being discovered by outsiders. But now, there are already orcs to come in. ”
Speaking of this, she turned her head and glanced at Chu Xiaoye.
Chu Xiaoye suddenly realized that those orcs just now turned out to be spies who came for the elves.
"So, we're going to be discovered by the orcs soon. Then they will come out of their nests and come against us. The orcs have always been enemies of humans, but they have always been suppressed by humans. The reason why they have been targeting our elves is that they have taken a fancy to the physique of our elves, and they want to take all of us back and give birth to more powerful offspring for them, and then seek revenge from humans. ”
Veris pushed open a wooden door and led them into another garden.
After walking for a while, a clearing with only a lawn suddenly appeared in front of him, and in the open space lay a huge iron cage, and in the iron cage, a saber-toothed tiger with baring fangs lay down.
The saber-toothed tiger was sleeping with its eyes squinted, and when it heard the movement, it immediately opened its eyes and let out a low roar from its mouth.
When it saw Chu Xiaoye and Catherine, it was stunned for a moment, then bared its fangs and began to roar, its sharp claws began to grasp the railing of the iron cage in a violent manner, murderous!
"Veris, this is ......"
Anne looked at the saber-toothed tiger with a puzzled look on her face, wondering why Veris had brought them here.
At this moment, a young elf with a cane suddenly walked out from behind the big tree next to him.
He was dressed in silver armor, with two fine medals pinned to his chest, his eyes were bright and sharp, he had a small scar on his forehead, his silver hair was tied into a ponytail, and he was slender and not very tall.
He walked over quickly and smiled at Willis, "Willis, you can count it back, this saber-toothed tiger is already hungry to the most opportune time, and it can tear apart any beast with one move." ”
With that, he looked at Anne and the two lions behind her.
When he saw the bald Chu Xiaoye, he was obviously stunned.
Veris said with a cold face, "Lord Lori, you don't seem to have greeted Princess Anne yet." ”
The young elf named Lori narrowed his eyes, looked at Anne on the side with a smile, and hypocritically let out a surprised voice: "Oh God, this is really Princess Anne! It turns out that Princess Anne didn't defect and escaped. I'm sorry, Your Highness Princess, I didn't recognize you just now, and please don't blame you. ”
The elven higher-ups all knew that this Princess Anne was fake, just to be able to lure out the real one.
As the former captain of the Royal Palace Guards and a nobleman, he naturally knew it.
Anne naturally heard his ridicule, but she didn't care, nodded, and said, "It turned out to be Lord Lowry." ”
Lori ignored her anymore, looked at Willis eagerly, and said with a smile: "You told me last time that a friend would give you a very powerful war beast, so, compared to the big guy I gave you, do you think it will be more suitable to be your war beast?" ”
"I don't know."
Veris shrugged her shoulders, but her eyes looked at Chu Xiaoye, and said, "I'm afraid I'll know if I have to compare them." ”
