Chapter 247: The Elves' Counterattack
readx;?? The purification magic circle was broken, and the suppression of elven magic disappeared immediately, and the elven elders who had insisted on guarding the holy relics until Grantham's return finally had a chance to take revenge, and they were all immersed in the grief of losing Grantham, and now they have been relieved.

Desperate for their lives, the elves rushed forward, brandishing their swords and chanting magic, when countless rattans sprang up from the ground, and these sharp spikes swooped down on the Templars and griffons, wrapping themselves tightly around each other as soon as they touched them.
All the trees in the palace that had not been destroyed were now alive by magic, and they swung their branches at the Templars.
"Not good, retreat!"
Des Hepburn immediately realized that the situation was not good, he didn't want his elite to fight with the elves who had become doomsday flowers in their lair without the cover of purification, so without waiting for Gutsian to hesitate, he immediately gave the order to evacuate the ground.
The Templars reacted quickly, they drew their swords one after another, and under the superposition of the double power of the Fighting Spirit and the Celestial Star Sword, the extremely tough vines were cut off, except for a few griffins who had been completely entangled in the vines, and then were torn apart by the elves who followed them.
But the elves' counterattack did not end, there were some trees hung with green oval fruits, the trees waved branches under the command of the elven mage, and threw the fruit towards the griffin knights in the sky, the throwing speed of the fruit was not fast, the griffin knights could dodge smoothly, but this fruit did not attack by speed in the first place.
"Bang!"
A fruit suddenly burst open, and it always splashed green viscous juice, whether it was a griffin or a knight, once it was drenched in the pulp, the surface of the skin immediately began to corrode, and even white smoke came out, and there was a burning pain in the corroded place.
"Ahh
Immediately, a Templar and his mount fell to the ground due to being drenched in too much pulp.
"Watch out for the fruit and fly higher. ā
Without Gutsien's orders, the other griffon knights had automatically increased in height until the fruit thrown by the trees could not reach it.
On the other side, the people in the circle that had been dodging the eight-sided fire had already reacted, and they began to drive their mounts back back, trying to kill Eren who was hiding in the thick fog.
The ten-step diameter fog was fanned away by the griffons with a few waves of their wings, but before they could get closer, the fog suddenly expanded on its own initiative, enveloping all the approaching griffins at once, followed by the lightning flashing in the dense fog, and the thunder roared.
The griffin rider was immediately struck by lightning and fell from the sky screaming. At the same time, the elven Pegasus, which had landed on the ground before, took off again, and the fallen griffin knight happened to fall into the encirclement of the elven Pegasus, and was immediately killed by the Pegasus Knight. This time, the Pegasus Knights all carried the grief and anger of the lost master, and almost immediately came up with all their might.
"The Templars listened to the order and prepared to destroy the Pegasus Knights. ā
Witnessing the change in the battle in the sky, Gutesian immediately ordered the Templars to come to his aid.
"This mission has been successfully completed, and it's time to retreat, Gutsian. ā
Just when Gutsian ordered with an angry face, and at the same time pondered how to kill the spoiler who appeared out of thin air, Des Hepburn said with an indifferent expression.
"Your Majesty, give me some time, I will wipe out all the remnants of the elves' power here. ā
Gutsian still looked at the fog in the sky and said reluctantly.
"Gutsien, I understand your feelings, you have done well today, Grantham's return is purely accidental, do not let these accidents affect your judgment. Today's task has been completed, without the suppression of the purification circle, the magic of the elves is not so easy to deal with, the people who participated in today's action are the elites of the Holy See, we can't back down because of this extra sacrifice, the tens of thousands of troops stationed in the west of the elven forest, their task is to completely exterminate the elven forest, you can command them to continue to prove yourself. ā
Dece Hepburn knew in his heart that Gutesian was holding back his anger, and it was originally a smooth operation, but he gave up almost halfway, and finally relied on his master paladin to end the task, so how could he not be resentful. However, Des Hepburn will not change his opinion because of Gutesian's mood, this is the ancient elven forest, they were able to destroy the elven relics in the elven royal city is already an unprecedented success, there is no need to continue to worry about some details, and the Holy See and Higg have already laid heavy troops near the Great Dragon Rift, as long as the mission goal here is achieved, the elven clan will lose the natural protection of the elven forest, and the next operation can be completed gradually by relying on these armies, there is no need to let the Templars risk their lives here.
"Your Majesty has a point. ā
Gutsien was silent for a moment, although he had regrets in his heart, but he was finally persuaded by Des Hepburn, and then commanded loudly:
"The Templars took cover with me, and the others immediately left the battlefield and retreated to the east. ā
After Gutsien finished speaking, he jumped on the griffin left behind by Heywood Rowland and rushed towards the Pegasus Knights in the air, and the other griffin knights automatically divided into two groups, one group escorted the priest to leave first, and the other group met the elven Pegasus behind.
Gutesian's voice spread throughout the battlefield, not only the Holy See heard it clearly, but also the people on the elven side heard it clearly, but how could they make the enemy who killed the king and exterminate the clan leave so calmly, even if they were desperate, they had to leave the opponent behind, until Gutesian led the members of the Templar Order to kill on the griffin knights, this kind of battle entered the most brutal time, almost attracting blood, under the Pegasus Knight's unafraid of death and injury, even the powerful Templars began to suffer casualties, Gutesian now understood why Dis Hepburn retreated, and the elves who lost the sacred relics of the clan became fearlessand become more difficult to deal with.
The griffons riding the bishop and the high priest began to retreat, and Gutesian commanded the rear of the Templar Palace, fighting and retreating, but the Pegasus Knights were like maggots with bones, and they held on, and for a time the Templars could only retreat while fighting, but the speed was getting slower and slower, and the number of casualties of the griffins was large, because in the part close to the ground, the elven mages on the ground began to chant incantations, and some large trees grew in the wind, and in a blink of an eye they had reached more than fifty paces high, and many elven warriors who were good at archery climbed to the canopy of the trees and began to shoot at the enemies in the air, with the help of the height of the trees, they were just able to shoot the enemy two hundred steps highAlthough the power of the feathered arrows has been drastically reduced by reaching this height, and there is almost no danger to the Templars who are fighting their bodies, their arrows are smeared with poison, and if they scratch the griffin, the griffin will be poisoned immediately.
