Then, tens of thousands of adult elves searched almost every village on the outskirts of the elven forest, capturing hundreds of mercenary groups in one fell swoop, and some of them were regular mercenaries who had nothing to do with the matter at all.

Since yesterday, at least more than 100 mercenaries and more than 50 elves have been killed in the conflict, and the heavy casualties of the elves have poured hot oil on the head of Her Majesty the Enraged Queen. ”

Such a word has never been used in the history of elves, and in the face of such an order that violates the ancestral teachings of the elves, quite a few elves expressed their dissent, and Queen Ingrid not only did not adopt it, but even detained some of the elven patriarchs.

In order to avoid the expansion of the conflict with humans, some stable patriarchs secretly discussed and secretly released the human mercenaries who were imprisoned and awaiting execution.

The brows of all the mercenaries were tightly screwed together, and there was still a trace of luck in the hearts of quite a few people: maybe after a few days, the elves would release them, even if they didn't return to human society, it was better to live than to die, okay, now this line of hope has been completely broken, the three kind-hearted elves have been let go, and several mercenary heads have apologized and thanked them again and again.

"Honorable Elven Patriarch, what are we going to do?

"Alas!" the elven patriarch let out a long sigh: "There is no other way, you can escape!"

"Respected Patriarch, no human has ever been able to successfully get out of this great forest, do you think we can be so lucky? Can you give us more help, we believe that with the kind heart of the elves, we will not let the fallen human friends be killed. The middle-aged magician asked.

After a moment of silence, the old elf said with some embarrassment: "I can tell you some secrets of the Elven Forest, but I ask you to swear that after you leave here, you will never reveal them to anyone." ”

At the moment of life and death, hundreds of mercenaries did not hesitate to say the oath they could think of the most severe punishment.

"In the elven forest, you must pay attention to the four kinds of plants, where there are reeds, you must not go, there must be a large swamp; where there are camphor trees, you must not go, there are ancient trees nearby, there are golden trees, they are the source of the magic of the elven forest, human contact will be sealed there by time; where there are rubber trees is the coordinate point of the path, from a rubber tree can often see the next rubber tree, one by one, you will leave the forest, there is a place with sisal near the elf village. ”

After a pause, the elven magician said again: "After you leave, don't walk together, separate and go in all directions, so that you have a better chance of escaping, and then, if you encounter a village, and now there are no prime-age elves in the village, you can capture some of my kind and let them take you away, so that if you encounter an elven army, you can definitely leave the forest with the hostages in your hands." “

"But, remember, must not hurt my fellow citizens, as

Elves, it is the kind hearts that let us release you, and we hope that humans can repay us with the same kind hearts. ”

All the human mercenaries were moved by the greatness of the elven mage, and more than one mercenary walked up to the elves and bowed deeply: "Elven friends, I swear as a knight that I will never hurt any elves again in my life. The mercenaries each took their own weapons and left the dungeon, and according to their respective mercenary organizations, they sprinkled water into the elven forest.

The red-haired boy motioned to his teammates to wait a moment, approached the old magician and asked softly, "Respected patriarch, I have an elven friend who has returned to the elven forest, and I very much hope to find him, what can I do?"

"Humans, you cannot understand the elves' view of the world. Elves have thousands of years of life, and after death, they will become magical elements to guard the elf forest, elves must look down on everything in their lives, and many things that humans stubbornly pursue are passing in the eyes of elves, I don't know what you are looking for elves to do, but you basically won't have any results. The elven old man's eyes were full of vicissitudes: "Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of elves living in the elven forest, except for one village where the elves know each other, most of the other elves don't know each other." ”【...@ ... Better, newer, faster]

"What if I knew the name of that village?" the red-haired boy did not give up.

"Can you find the elves to help you spread the word? There are hundreds of villages in the elven forest, and not everyone can find other villages, and there is no one to help you find people, what can you do in this magical realm? Forget it, young man, when your friends think of you again, maybe your grandson will have entered the twilight of his life. ”

The red-haired boy wanted to say something, but several of his partners were a little anxious, and finally had to walk towards the depths of the forest together.

The night began to fade from the eastern sky, the crisp birds had begun to chirp, and the mercenaries who had left the protection of the night showed more and more fear of the forest.

The mercenary group where Xue Wuxian is located chose to go south, which is also the choice of most of the mercenaries, the elf old man has just said that there is a large group of elven warriors at the edge of the forest, and the ability of a few mercenaries is not to mention fighting the elves in the elf forest, and they can't run if they want to.

Rather than this, it is better to go deep into the elven forest first, and it is better to find a small elven village and capture one or two hostages to finally get out of trouble.

It was already dark, and the thief mercenaries who were scouting the way at the forefront suddenly let out a continuous quail call, and the mercenaries knew that the elves' eyesight and hearing were extraordinary, s

Everyone crept to hide behind the trees.

After a long while, there was a slight rustling of footsteps in the forest, and from a distance came two elven boys, one older and one small, the older boy was no more than thirteen years old, and the younger boy was no older than six years old.

The earthy yellow clothes, at a glance, can be seen to be cut out of handmade linen, what is striking is that the two boys are carrying a dark green short bow on their shoulders, the quiver is full of short arrows, and the big boy also has a small roe deer dripping with blood on his shoulder, and the roe deer is not seen all over the body, but blood is dripping from the eyes, which must be an arrow from the archer through the head of the roe deer, from one eye directly into the other.
