Chapter 62: Aftermath (9)

There is a specially arranged road in a dense woods, at this time, a huge horse team is marching on this road, a team of elf soldiers are dutifully running in front of the horse team to explore, the shade of the trees is so dense that the sun can hardly get in, so that the hot afternoon is a little more cool, but in such an environment there is a scolding that is not in harmony with the environment.

"Damn, that stinky old man, what do you say that the territory will be handed over to me to manage in the future, so you want me to come down first to understand the situation in various places, what do those short-lived, dirty and stupid humans have to know, anyway, if you resist, you can't kill them, anyway, they are just like piglets, killing a batch will soon give birth to another batch, maybe we don't kill as fast as they are. A childish-looking elf said crisply.

The elves rode on a white horse, surrounded by a large team of horses, followed by a freight carriage carrying many miscellaneous items, many long-eared elves either flattered or cursed, but a pretty figure remained silent.

"Russ, why don't you speak, are you sick? The young elf smiled and rode forward, and accosted the slender but cold elf, while reaching out to touch the pretty elf's forehead.

"Young Lord Aishiel, please respect yourself. Russ knocked off the young elf's hand with a frosty face, and rode aside.

"Hmph, what's the matter, it's just a high-level warrior, and when I turn around, I tell my father to get you to my bed, and see if you are still in front of the legendary powerhouse. Aihil gritted his teeth and thought, looking at the group of elves around him who were smiling and flattering him, he suddenly felt a wave of irritability in his heart, and he longed for a random whip to open these people, but even if it was such a simple thing, he couldn't do it, because these people were sent by his father's various nobles to accompany him, or they needed to flatter themselves, but it didn't mean that they could beat and scold them at will.

"Hmph, that stinky old man. Aihil snorted lightly, originally thought that he could catch the elf and humiliate him, but Russ let him leave on the grounds that he was in too much of a hurry, otherwise he must find out the guy, the noble elf actually studied archery with the lowly anthropo? What kind of dwarf joke. I thought he was such a powerful archer, but I didn't expect it to be just a dying stinky old man, it was too cheap to kill him like this, and he should be tortured to make him regret the consequences of accepting apprentices indiscriminately.

"You, come here. At this moment, he saw an elven girl who had fallen behind the horse team and followed the horse team step by step.

"Yes, Master Ahill. The elven girl's resigned, pat the horse forward.

"Come into my tent at night. Aihil looked at the girl's delicate and immature face, and a wave of desire welled up in his heart, this is just the daughter of a little nobleman, it stands to reason that she shouldn't appear here, and it shouldn't be okay to play.

"Yes, Master Ahill. The elf girl's face was pale, her teeth were biting her lip, and she was almost biting blood, of course he knew what his father had tried his best to stuff himself into the horse team, he originally thought that Young Master Aihil should not look down on him, but he didn't expect that this day would come.

Russ, who was in the distance, saw this scene and sighed softly, in all fairness, he really wanted to kill this guy with a grinning face with an arrow, but he had his own responsibilities, even if it was a high-level powerhouse, before entering the legend, no one could ignore the gap in status, because people live not only themselves, but also their parents, family and family, that elf girl is the same, of course he can resist, but what kind of fate will happen to his family is unknown. Alas...... Isn't it the same for himself, if Aishiel and the Duke ask for their own lives, then will they have room for resistance?

"Bang. 」

Russ lost his mind, and out of nowhere, an arrow shot at him like lightning.

"Intermediate?" Russ came back to her senses, and the long sword at her waist easily cut off the arrow, and after judging the strength of her enemy, she leaped from her horse and ran towards the point where the bow and arrow had come from.

"Bang. At this time, another arrow was shot, Russ looked at the arrow vigilantly, but saw that the arrow hit the neck of another guard, and suddenly blood gushed out, a middle-level powerhouse had no power to resist, this scene made Russ also feel a chill in his heart, he didn't understand, it was obviously the strength of the middle-level root speed, and the guard was also on guard, but why was he still shot so easily.

Russ ran quickly into the woods, probing a little, grabbed a branch, and after a few jumps, stopped at a branch.

"There are footprints...... The branch was trampled and cracked, and it seems that he fled immediately after shooting the second arrow. Russ quickly examined the branches, then sprang down with a light turn, following the marks on the ground and slowly searching deeper into the woods, unleashing his longbow, he had a hunch that this fellow would not be able to handle it.

Sure enough, his hunch came true.

"Actually let him run away...... Russ turned pale and returned from the same way, originally thought that following the traces should be able to catch the other party smoothly, after all, the forest is the home of the elves, but I didn't expect the traces to be obvious in the middle, but after a place, all the traces disappeared, it was as if they suddenly disappeared in the forest, which made Russ feel inexplicably uneasy, and felt like falling into a trap.

"Damn it......" Russ returned to the horse team, looked at the panicked crowd, and ran uneasily.

"Russ, you...... Where did you go? Aishiel said with an angry expression, but what was hidden inside was a deep fear that made Aishiel, who had not experienced much fighting, almost unable to speak.

Russ ignored Aihir, this was not a good time to appease the child, but asked the surrounding elven warriors about the incident, it turned out that not long after Russ ran into the forest, several arrows were shot in the forest, directly killing two mid-level elven marksmen and three low-level elven warriors, until we set up a defensive line and sent a team into the forest to search.

"Sure enough, it was tricked. Russ clenched her fists so tightly that her joints turned white. The heart is full of anger to be played, and a little fear, judging from the other party's actions, this ambush is completely prepared, and even those tracks are prepared in advance, which means that in the forest, the other party is more familiar than his own people, and if he can't catch him here, then this road will be very difficult to walk.

Russ took out the map, and after reading it, he put it away without saying a word, now he can be sure that the other party has premeditated, whether it is to the next castle or back to the previous castle, there are more than ten days away, and the ambush here is obviously planned for a long time, but there is nothing he can do on his side, with this group of young masters and girls, it is impossible for him to speed up at all, if he finds rescue, he will probably die before the rescue arrives on his side.

"Keep going. In desperation, Russ could only pretend that nothing else was going on, he really couldn't think of any other way.

The next few days were a hellish journey, and every day a guard was shot to death, or in the neck, or in the heart, and the opponent was almost always shot, unless it was a bow or arrow aimed at him, which made Russ wonder when his side had provoked such a terrible enemy.

"Boom. Russ drew his sword and reluctantly stopped shooting his own arrow, drew his longbow and shot at the place where the arrow came, these days he didn't even have the desire to chase, every time he went to chase the other party, he either disappeared without a trace, or he continued to shoot the guards while he was not in the horse team, the most effective way these days was to shoot at each other, it is conceivable that the other party is in the forest, he is on the avenue, such a shot is destined to be beaten. And what makes Russ even more frightened is that the other party's strength seems to be slowly getting stronger, the first arrow is only the feeling of entering the middle level, and he can simply file it, these days it is already a middle-level and advanced feeling, and he can only barely accept the opponent's attack, if he waits until the other party also enters the high level.

"Ugh. Russ could only sigh when he looked at Aihir, who was scolding his followers in the back, and tried to shout, and even put gold coins on the ground as road money, but the other party was completely unmoved, and he could only do his best......
