The roar of steel was like a tidal wave, drowning out the shouts of the elven swordsmen.

The heavy infantry of the Peruvian Empire advanced like a wall, and soon divided and surrounded them, and they only felt that there were swords and swords on all sides.

In the fierce battle, the light of the artillery fire flashed at high speed, illuminating the hideous faces of the Imperial Army from time to time, and those standardized blades waved like a hurricane, and there were no dead ends in cooperation. In the face of this highly organized offensive, the elven swordsmen could not exert their martial arts at all, and they fell in large swaths like harvested wheat stalks.

In the realm of the elves, they are all respected warriors, who value honor above life, and despise the timid and cowardly. But now they were screaming, a cry of heartbreak on the verge of collapse, and the voice they despised most in the past.

However, yelling was useless, and the well-trained Imperial Army would not be relented by this, but they could only resist the demonic pressure a little if they roared.

As the Imperial army advanced, the elven swordsmen fell in blood one after another, unable to get up again, but they maintained their last dignity in honor and did not retreat or surrender, and all died on the front line against the torrent of steel.

......

The Elven Court, the lookout of the Silver Tower.

Looking at the scenes of the elven swordsman being ruthlessly slaughtered, the elven girl's beautiful eyes concealed both intolerance and enlightenment - the gap is too big! It is not that our warriors are not brave enough, but that there is a generational gap in the military strength of the enemy and us, and this gap is far from being made up by bravery.

And...... The warriors of the elves are brave, are the enemies all cowards?

In her eyes, the high degree of tacit cooperation of the Imperial Army, the unbelievable flexibility of attacking, defending, and outflanking, and what is even more terrifying is that the morale is extremely high. Under Kazan's leadership, the heavy infantry legions were simply humanoid tyrannosaurs, unstoppable, and even their skill was not inferior to that of elven swordsmen.

"How can you win......" The elf girl sighed silently.

At this time, the armored divisions densely packed on the battlefield had torn through the defensive line, forming an unstoppable Kuroshio. The elves have a huge number at this time, but there is no effective military system to organize them, so in the case of the loss of elites, there is no need to resist.

In the face of the impact of the torrent of steel, a large number of elves gave up resistance and chose to endure humiliation and surrender to the imperial army.

The Imperial Army did not refuse to come at this time, after all, the elves were expensive luxuries, and it was a waste to kill them in vain.

After the army completely divided and surrounded the entire elven kingdom, Kazan even set up loudspeakers in several strongholds with the most fierce resistance to personally persuade him to surrender. They said that they could only survive by surrendering, and that wherever they found resistance, they would use artillery fire to flatten them, so as to satisfy their wish to die for their country.

It turns out that the elves are not as reserved as they thought when it comes to death.

After several strongholds were ruthlessly devoured by artillery fire, a large number of elves chose to give up resistance, obediently tied up by the imperial army, and then waited for the fall in frustration.

"The power of the Great Barrier is already full, and it will soon be able to unleash the flames of destruction and purify all evil. ”

Looking at the brighter and brighter Great Enchantment in the sky, the elf girl's hands holding her skirt became harder and harder, and a look of determination flashed in her eyes: "Even if you detonate the Great Enchantment, it is better to die with all the invaders than to be defeated and humiliated." ”

"Prophet Celia!"

At that moment, she heard an old call from behind, and when she turned around, she found that it was Elder Sam from the Temple of Prophecy.

"The human army has attacked the mother tree!" the old man rushed to Celia and said breathlessly, "I can't hold it! my people can't stand it anymore, please leave here immediately!"

"I'm not leaving...... I'm going to make them regret it. ”

The elf girl shook her head, categorically rejected him, and said coldly: "The elf clan can lose and die, but it must not be humiliated. I'm going to detonate the Great Enchantment, unleash the energy of nature, and let the invaders bury the destruction of the Elven Realm!"

"What did you say!?"

As if he hadn't heard clearly, Elder Sam rubbed his ears vigorously and stared at her with wide eyes: "You want to destroy the Elven Realm? No, no, no, you must not do this! as long as you live...... Even if they are as humble as ants, as long as they live, there is still hope! If the Great Barrier is detonated, the entire elven race will be destroyed, and there will be no hope of revival at that time!"

"Why are you still lucky?"

Celia turned around and looked down at the war-torn kingdom, her beautiful face gradually pale: "There is no hope, humanity will not give us a chance to revivenation, and the surrender that betrays dignity will not end well." ”

"Have you made up your mind?" Elder Sam sighed, his voice quickly weakening.

"Yes, my heart will not waver. The elf girl replied firmly.

"In that case...... I'm sorry for that!"

In the middle of speaking, Elder Sam let out an angry roar and rushed behind Celia like a wild beast, and the elven girl couldn't react at all, and was grabbed by the throat by a pair of large, rough hands.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to die, and since you're going to drag the elves to die with you, I'll have to hand you over to humans, and maybe get my life back. Elder Sam pressed his knees against Selia's back and pressed her against the guardrail, exerting frantic force with both hands, not giving her a chance to resist.

The elven girl's face quickly faded from blood, revealing a look of bewilderment mixed with bewilderment.

Sam ...... Elder...... You ......"

Celia struggled hard, but because she was facing away from the elven elder and he was pressed against her spine, she couldn't move at all.

Soon, the painful suffocation came over in bursts, and the elf girl grew her mouth like a fish out of water, breathing one by one, but she couldn't feel any air.

"I don't want to die...... I can't die...... I have a long time to live!" Elder Sam muttered to himself nervously as he pinched his neck viciously.

Just as Celia was struggling to no avail, and her heart was about to be filled with despair, the hurried footsteps of the royal court guards came from behind her, and a cry of great surprise: "Elder Sam, what are you doing? Let go of Selia Prophet!"

"Let her go and let her ruin the elven realm?" Elder Sam turned his head abruptly and said with a hideous expression, "Don't you see? The Great Barrier has begun to collapse! Because she has destroyed the balance of the barrier, and wants to take the Elven clan to be buried with her, do you want to die with her?"

"Humans won't let us go, so it's better to die together!" said one of the royal court guards, gritting his teeth.

"As long as she is handed over to humanity, we don't have to die! As a prophet, she is worth a fortune in the eyes of humanity, enough to buy back so many of our lives and freedoms!" Elder Sam shouted.

After ......hearing his words, the royal court guards were eerily quiet.

"Uh......h Woohoo......"

The elven girl clasped her hands on the other's wrists, her joints pale and protruding, her fingertips curled, as if trying to break it away from her snow-white neck, but to no avail. Her chest expanded rapidly, and a sound similar to wheezing came out of her throat, calling for help from the royal court guards:

"Catch ...... Catch him!"

“......”

However, there was only a nervous gasp in response.

Everyone knew she was suffering, but no one had any intention of saving her.

After asking for help to no avail, Celia also understood their thoughts, but there was no trace of anger, only a faint regret and relief - she died with her heart, and in exchange for a few people of the same clan who wanted to live, this business might not be bad.

Soon, the elven girl's red eyes, which were different from those of her kind, quickly became sloppy, her pupils dilated, and the inside showed a neon-like color, and the light gradually dimmed. At this moment, she saw many strange images, from the burning Gran Forest, to the Celestial Behemoth that had lost its mind, to the Walking Dead Neupera...... Finally, the scene freezes on a pitch-black tower hanging upside down in the sky.

Immediately afterward, she felt her vision sink into darkness, and her consciousness ...... Weightless.

11111111111111111111111111111111

The war was over, and the war in the Elven Realm fell silent, leaving only the flames of the ruins of the buildings peeling and burning, and the flickering light reflected the shadows on the corpses stacked one by one.

From a distance, the former Elven Pure Land is more like a huge cemetery at this time.

The Imperial Army is like ants weaving between the ruins, taking Kazan's orders and counting and escorting the elven captives.

Inside the Elven Court, Elder Sam and a group of royal court guards chose to surrender unconditionally and offered the fainting prophet Celia.

“...... This woman almost detonated the Great Enchantment and destroyed the entire Elven Realm?

Looking at the unconscious elven girl, Kazan showed a trace of surprise, and then looked at Elder Sam and the others with approving eyes: "You have done a good job! You have saved the imperial army and offered the prophet of the elven kingdom, which is enough to exchange your life and freedom!"

"Honorable Commander, are you saying we can go?" Elder Sam asked, ecstatic.

"Let's go!"

Kazan took out the forgiveness book that had been prepared long ago, signed his name, and threw it to the elven elder who was eager to wear it: "You can take thirty people with you, and you can choose the specific number of people, but you must evacuate within one day, understand?"

"Thank you very much. ”

Elder Sam put away the letter of forgiveness as if he had received a treasure, and left the Elven Court with a few guards around him, smeared the soles of his feet with oil.

After witnessing the figure of the elven elder disappearing, a subordinate general walked up to Kazan and asked hesitantly:

"My lord, do you really want to let them go?"

"Of course it's true. Kazan looked right.

"My lord, aren't you afraid that they will be bad for the empire in the future?"

"The Elven Realm is over...... How much of a wave can a few exiles make?" Kazan waved his hand disapprerovingly, signaling the other party to stop talking: "Go ahead and count the prisoners of war, what you have to do now is to count how many prisoners of war we have captured, and then place them." ”

"Yes!"

The general stopped talking and quickly retreated.

......

Imperial Army camp, Ozma's private carriage.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency, the Imperial Army has won a great victory, and the Elven Realm has died. Carrying a bag of tea, Kalenz burst into the carriage and greeted Ozma.

"What does that have to do with me? The elves are too weak...... I didn't even get a chance to make a move. Ozma sat on the couch, looked down at a book called "A Beginner's Guide to Gem Technology", and said in a sullen voice.

"Of course it matters, no matter what you say, you are also one of the main generals. Karenz placed the tea in front of him, and sat down.

"It smells so good. Seduced by the aroma of tea, Ozma reluctantly raised her head, glanced at the tea bag, and then buried her head in the book again.

"It's a pity, everything went so well. Karenz sighed suddenly.

"yes, it went so well. Ozma nodded.

"After the fall of the Elven Realm, the prestige of you and General Kazan is probably known to everyone in the Perris Empire, right?" Seeing that he hadn't reacted yet, Kalenz could only continue to induce.

"It's just a name. Ozma replied lightly.

"Do you think it's a false name, and the emperor will also think it's a false name?" asked Kalenz meaningfully.

"Mr. Karenz...... What do you mean?" Hearing this, Ozma suddenly raised her head and looked at him with a solemn expression: "A kind reminder, or a malicious provocation?

"It doesn't matter, as long as you're alert. Karenz laughed, then clapped his hands and said loudly, "Let's talk about the happy thing, your army has captured so many elven slaves, can you sell me a batch in advance?" ”

"I don't know what you think. ”

Ozma shook her head and frowned at him: "If you want to buy slaves, you can wait for the captives to be sent to the imperial capital and buy them from His Majesty the Emperor." ”

"To swallow more, of course. ”

Karenz spread out his hands and said helplessly: "I am an innocent businessman, if I don't plan in advance, how can I win over those who have backgrounds and backgrounds? If I don't eat the next batch at this time, and wait for the prisoners of war to be transported into the imperial capital, I'm afraid I won't even have soup to drink." ”

"That's a reason. Ozma pretended to believe it, and then asked as she read the book, "So, how much do you want?"

"One hundred grams of gold for an elf, I will eat as much as you can get. Kalenz said earnestly.

“......”

Ozma raised her head suddenly, her eyes almost bulging out, and looked at him with an expression that looked at an unknown creature: "Your Excellency the Merchant of Innocence of Origin, I want to know...... Isn't your hometown a golden star?Otherwise, it's hard for me to imagine how rich you are......"

"It doesn't matter. ”

Karenz stood up, walked over to him, and patted him lightly on the shoulder: "The important thing is that I can afford to pay and continue to provide you with knowledge about the magic of gemstones. ”
