Chapter Eighty-Five: Captured
However, the search soon ended, as Parsa was escorted back. He looked miserable, with a lot of burnt marks on his body, his clothes were in tatters, his hands were tied behind his back with ropes, and a mechanical spider was lying on his head, pointing his sharp feet at the vital points of his head.
Behind him were two elves, a man and a woman.
The male elf saw Luo Ling and asked his companion, "Maya, do you feel it?"
"I felt it, it was the breath of the World Tree. She nodded slightly to Luo Ling and said, "I am Maya, an alchemist from the Elven Kingdom, are you Luo Ling?"
"It turns out that you are Maya, then this red-haired person is Dining, Elaina and Xiao Chen have talked about you many times. Luo Ling saluted the two with a little joy on her face.
"Elaina...... Maya's eyes reddened and she let out a sigh, "She's also talked about you many times, you're her best friend outside of the Elven Kingdom, no, it's supposed to be her best friend." We've been together for a short time since she came back, but she's already told me a lot about you, and for me, that's just like yesterday. ”
"Yes, it's like yesterday. She seemed to be there for us all the time, and I could even feel his presence. Speaking of Elaina, Dinen was also infected by Maya's emotions.
Luo Ling confirmed that the two of them didn't know that Elaina had become Xiao Chen's spiritual attendant, but seeing Maya and Dinein's sad expressions, and thinking of the sacrifice Elaina had made for herself, her own eyes quickly turned red.
Maya said: "Okay, today those of us who know each other finally have the opportunity to really know each other, and it shouldn't be a sad day. ”
Dinen glanced at Duke Parsa and said, "And there's this guy here." ”
Luo Ling said: "It shouldn't be a coincidence that you caught him, right?"
Di Ning nodded and said, "Our original plan was to go to Montenegro to find Xiao Chen and fulfill our agreement, but when we were in Green Forest City, we found that your partners were following the people of the Shadow Group, and we were worried that these people would be unfavorable to you Chinese, so we followed."
Along the way, we followed far behind, and realized that they had nothing to do with the Shadow Regiment and Greenwood City, so we wondered if they belonged to the Tower of China. Later, in this forest, I eavesdropped on their conversation in mid-air to confirm this.
However, although Maya and I have the intention of helping, the strength of these three is really strong, and each of them is not under me and Maya, and even if we want to help, we can't find a place to intervene.
A few of your battles along the way have also been eye-opening, and the way to win is completely different from what we thought. So we've been flying in the air and following you to observe. However, when the Duke of Parsa was about to break out, I noticed that you were a little out of your hands, so I secretly placed a magic mark on the Duke's body, and in the panic he and his companions did not notice my small movements. ”
"No wonder you can still find him after using a random teleportation scroll. Anar said, "Thanks, I almost let this guy slip away." Today's action was perfect in other respects, and it would be a big pity to miss him. Where did this guy run away?"
"He teleported two kilometers north of here. "But with Dinein's magical sigil, he's as obvious as the moon in the night." We caught up with them and attacked them, but the mage put up a fierce resistance and was killed by Dinen in the engagement. The Duke of Parsa was first wounded by magic, and then captured by my spiders. ”
Luo Ling thanked Dineh and Maya and asked, "Then what are your plans now?"
Dinen said: "Our purpose was to go to your city to increase our knowledge and learn something different. But there's no clear destination, so if you can use us here, we'll go with you first. ”

Luo Ling settled the two elves and took Aklee to Duke Parsa. The duke is still tied, and the spider on his head has been taken away by Maya, but at this moment, he has added the forbidden demon seal and the weakness seal to his body, and his strength is no better than that of an ordinary old man. He sat on a tree trunk by the side of the road, guarded by three warriors and a mage, waiting for the rest of the men to deal with the battlefield. The Duchess and his youngest son were lucky not to be physically injured in the fierce battle, but the two of them looked terrified and huddled beside the Duke of Parsa.
Luo Ling walked up to the duke and wanted a guard to take the duchess and the child away, but the duke's son held on to his father and refused to let go.
Duke Parsa said, "Your Excellency Luo Ling, I heard that you are a high-level mage, so you can't get along with my son. ”
Aclay sneered: "When you ran away just now, you didn't expect your sons to mercilessly abandon them in the middle of the battlefield, and now you start to play the role of a loving father?"
Duke Parsa smiled faintly and said, "I just don't want to do stupid things, it's very difficult for me to even escape by myself, where can I have the ability to escape with them? Forcibly taking them with you will only increase the possibility that they will be injured and killed in the escape." On the contrary, staying here, I heard that the Chinese have always had a very good attitude towards prisoners, and you will never kill such two women and children who have no ability to resist, right?"
"You're good at calculations. Aclay scoffed, "The outside world is still praising your image of being brave and straightforward, and not thinking too much." I didn't expect you to be such a person. ”
"Courage is not the same as recklessness, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to run Greenwood City as it is now. The Duke said.
"Since Greenwood City is your proud work, why would you give it up?" asked Luo Ling.
"It's the same thing as when I just gave up my wife and son. The Duke of Parsa glanced at his son and said, "What is there to sacrifice for what you know you will lose if you know you can't keep it?" I just think it clearer and clearer than everyone else. Now I know that I have been captured by you, and Greenwood City will soon be occupied by you. ”
"You're really simple. Luo Ling said.
"Now I have a little question. ”
"Say it. ”
"Where will I go? and what about my wife and children?" asked the Duke of Parsa.
"You'll be escorted to the rear towns, where you'll be judged, and you'll know what you're going to do for years to come. Luo Ling said, "But before that, you must follow me to Greenwood City and help us persuade those soldiers to surrender." ”
Unexpectedly, the Duke of Parsa said, "I refuse." ”
