Chapter 279: Finding the City Lord
Blades of grass and treetops, rubbing against my skin. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
No, I should say rubbed it off my fur.
As I run, the soft, silvery-white hairs form a dense protective layer that doesn't break through, so I won't get scratched.
While speeding through the trees, everyone also flexibly waved their ears all the time, alertly listening to the movements around them.
The eye contact between the wolves was done in a split second.
At the moment of jumping, at the moment of landing, as long as the eyes meet each other, the information can be transmitted.
This feeling of detachment can even make people a little carried away.
I really want to keep galloping in this state.
"Roar"
A wolf running in front of him let out a short, low roar in his throat.
It was like a warning, and as soon as this sound reached my ears, it caused a natural tremor in the muscles of my body.
The four legs naturally relaxed, slowing down.
The unity and coordination between wolves is unmatched by humans.
Hey?
This smell is ......
A fiery fragrance, similar to the smell on Elle's body, with a very similar impression.
It's so close that the owner of these scents is able to form a concrete image in my head.
Got it!
Belch!
A foul smell rushed into my nose and made me feel uncomfortable.
If it weren't for these little paws, I would have covered my nose right away.
It's a long-term dwelling underground, with the smell of something rotten on the skin.
And the stench that comes out of their mouths, with bacteria and venom.
A gust of wind blew through the woods, bringing the smell into the wolves.
I looked around, and the other elves were also very unhappy with the smell.
They bared their fangs, or stood up the hairs on the back of their necks, or let out bursts of low roars from their throats.
"Roar!"
The wolf in front let out a short, but powerful roar.
It seems to be uplifting all of us, and it is like harmonizing all of us.
All the wolf's muscles were shaking with excitement.
It seems that he is ready to pounce and bite the enemy's throat.
The wolf in front of him turned around and began to take brisk steps.
His paws stomped powerfully into the woodland covered with leaves and branches, making a rhythmic sound.
Our other wolves followed him, moving in a similar rhythm.
It's as if the cavalry needs to let the horses accelerate evenly before launching a final charge.
When a few paws landed on the ground, they were light and elastic, and I was jolted all over my body, full of rhythm.
Immediately after that, everyone began to accelerate.
The claws stomped on the ground, sinking into the dirt, creaking against the branches and stones.
With this steady acceleration, I began to feel the dizzying speed.
Everything around you disappears from view in an instant, and only by gathering all the spirits can you not crash headlong into the tree in front of you.
When he jumped out of the low bushes, he had to lower his ears and keep the little pointy thing against his head so that he wouldn't get scratched.
How fast we are, with my experience, is simply impossible to calculate.
Hmmm――
After jumping out of a dense haystack, my eyes lit up instantly.
We had rushed from the forest to a path.
Rustle - Rustle -
Wolves were constantly rushing out from behind and around us, like dolphins bursting out of water.
The dense thud of the wolves' claws on the ground filled with fallen leaves and dirt was now replaced by a piercing clatter.
The path paved with stones and stone slabs felt stiff to step on, making the soft soles of the wolf's feet a little unbearable.
But at the same time, this rough ground provides more friction.
As soon as the wolves came up to the road, they picked up speed again.
The distance between our bodies is likely to be only a few centimeters.
The wolves rushed forward along the path as fast as a pack of ghosts flying through the air.
Hasten...... Bolted...... Sharp......
It was like a roller coaster, and my nerves were stretched to the limit.
The smell in my nose has become stronger and stronger, and it seems that it is about to come to you.
It's so close that it's not strange to crash into the elves at any moment......
Sand Click-
"Woo Ooe"
"Doom"
The wolf in front of him braked suddenly, his paws clattering on the stone floor.
The wolves behind didn't have time to slow down, and all the wolves crashed together.
The claws gripped the ground and paddled out for several meters, the sound of clattering and rattling pierced my ears.
The man rolled on the wolf's back.
After a few rolls, I quickly twisted twice and turned back from being on all fours.
A group of elves suddenly appeared in front of him.
He wore silver-white armor with a red robe embroidered in the shape of a large golden-brown maple leaf.
Akaba!
The elves, who smelled of a fiery red, were forming a tight line, seemingly moving along the path.
After the break, a dozen elves looked nervous with their weapons pointed at us.
After confirming that we were not cavemen, they put their spears down.
At the same time, someone whispered an order, and they all stopped.
"Roar~Roar~"
Several wolves next to them let out a brisk low, roar.
I understood what they meant right away.
Everyone began to disperse, and then spit out the small wooden pieces in their mouths.
The silvery-white fur began to melt and turn into a cold mist that enveloped us.
The body becomes soft like plasticine again, and then the line of sight gradually rises until the fog lifts.
A group of elves dressed in heavy golden armor appeared on the path.
This took the group of crimson elves by surprise.
They probably knew that we were elves, but they didn't expect that we were an elite elven unit from the royal city of Elgonda.
With a few irregular footsteps and the clinking of armor, the broken Akaba Elf troops scattered to both sides of the path.
Revealing the people who are walking by-
"Sercelia-sama!"
She was injured.
To be precise, it seems that the injury is not light.
Her armor had many scars, several of which had even broken her armor.
Visible wounds can be seen underneath several gaps.
But the city lord of Red Cliff City still didn't let anyone help her.
"Issadur?"
Cecelia didn't seem to expect me to be here.
"Where's Ellie?"
Sure enough, she still cares more about her daughter.
"On the front line, with the army group, Grandpa Ambora and several patriarchs are there, she should be safe"
Hearing this, Sercelia's stunned face regained its tranquility.
"How many enemies are there?"
I asked the question directly.
That's what I'm most concerned about right now.
"Are you here ......?"
Sercelia-sama seemed to guess what I was here for, but couldn't believe it.
"We're here for reinforcements"
The city lord of Red Cliff City listened to my words, and instead of becoming relaxed, he lowered his face.
"Fooling around"
Indeed, both in the eyes of the lord of the castle and in my own opinion, it is clear to me that we are messing around.
With that, Secelia looked up at the other elves standing with me.
The elite of the royal city, the escort of Ergonda.
The castle lord's eyes began to change.
"I can see that you're not kidding"
It seems that Cecelia has a high opinion of this group of elite elves.
"But still unwise"
This made my heart sink.
"If I had been wise, I wouldn't have come to save you"
"But then I won't forgive myself, and Ellie won't forgive me"
The corners of Seria's mouth seemed to curl slightly, but she didn't laugh.
"Three thousand"
"The number of cavemen is three thousand"
"But it's not a problem, it's a question ......"
Before Sercelia could finish speaking, there was a rustling sound in the nearby forest.
"Shhh
I was trying to identify the number of enemies with my ears and nose when I realized that I had changed from a wolf back to a man.
The wolf's abilities are so good that I have relied on it in just a few tens of minutes.
"Sercelia-sama, your troops ......"
I took one look at the group of elves and realized.
They weren't much less injured than Secelia.
It looked like about fifty or sixty people.
It was besieged by 3,000 enemy troops, and there was almost no damage.
It is conceivable that in order to save most of the elves from being killed, Lord Secelia probably did not concentrate on killing the enemy.
Otherwise, the three thousand cavemen would probably not be the opponent of the city lord of Red Cliff City.
"You retreat to Red Cliff City first"
"No, you listen to me"
"No, Sercelia-sama"
I stared at the castle lord with serious eyes.
"We are here to rescue you, don't let us disgrace our mission"
Sercelia-sama didn't seem to expect me to be so determined.
"Only if you arrive safely in Chiya City can it be considered our victory"
"Besides, your arrival in Red Cliff City is our most reliable backing, if we are defeated, we will have a direction"
Cecelia hesitated for a few seconds.
As the rustle grew louder in the distance, Sercelia-sama seemed convinced.
As soon as she shook her head, all the Akaji elves followed her on.
"Don't be reckless, even if you can't stop him, it's not a shame"
With that, Serenia-sama began to trot forward with Akaba's troops.
For me, it's a mixed bag.
Although it was a blessing for me to see that Lady Secelia did not suffer misfortune.
But next.
I'm afraid it's the hardest battle of my life.
