Chapter Ninety-Nine: Spoils of War
"The one who bought the ogre tribe may be my second brother - Downs Wharton," after a long sigh, Wang Xu threw out the glowing mahogany sword and let it hang under the ceiling of the cave, and then, Wang Xu casually pointed to the dozens of green rectangular boxes piled up in the innermost part of the cave, "See the green leaf pattern on the chest, that's Downs Wharton's family emblem!"
After listening to Wang Xu's words, everyone followed the direction pointed by Wang Xu and looked into the depths of the cave, and they found that although the height of this cave is not very high, it is only one story high, and it is not too big, and the oval cave covers an area equivalent to a hall.
However, in the deepest part of the cave, there was a mountain of tall chests, each of which was shaped like a long strip of bluestone, made of emerald green wood, and on the eight corners of the chest, there were eight gold horns carved with leaf patterns, and none of those chests were broken under the protection of the eight gold corners.
"Downs Wharton!" Looking at the wooden crates in the depths of the cave, which were obviously made by the craftsmanship of the elves, Nilou, who had just been in a better mood, was angry again, as the patron saint of the elves, she has always adhered to the traditions of the elves, loved her people, protected her race, and fought to the end against any enemy who opposed her race!
She never thought that the second son of the elf king would take the elven clan's things to buy the elven clan's consistent enemy, the ogre, and even unite with the ogre to deal with the elven race's eternal ally dwarves!
Suddenly, Nilou was standing on her left, snorting and panting. The eyes were bigger than the brass bells, even. Her eyes, which were like purple gems, were covered with the pale green blood that was unique to the elves!
"Don't be angry. Patted her on the shoulder, and after she looked at herself with an angry face, Wang Xu comforted Nilou softly: "Anyway, my cheap second brother has always wanted to kill me, and between me and him, there must be a confrontation, the assassination and sowing discord he used before have failed, and now, he can only fight with me openly, and wait for me to fight with him." It's not too late for you to kill him!"
After finishing speaking, Wang Xu found that Nilou continued to puff out her cheeks, her eyes were still wide, and it was obvious that her words did not convince the stubborn her, nor did they play any role in comforting her.
After thinking about it, Wang Xu felt. People like her can't be convinced, so instead of continuing to comfort her, it's better to tell her to do something. to distract her, this way is much better than direct comfort!
After thinking about it, Wang Xu opened his mouth and called old Warren who was talking to Livka on the side. When old Warren walked up to him, Wang Xu whispered to him, "There are so many boxes here. Maybe there's a lot of equipment in there, so it's better to destroy them all. Why don't you let the knights divide it?"
"Oh......" After listening to Wang Xu's words, when Old Warren hadn't said anything, he heard the knights who had another advantage to take, and first cheered, Old Warren looked back at the excited knights, turned his head and stared at Wang Xu, with complicated emotions in his eyes, and replied: "Okay!"
After saying that, old Warren returned to the knights and began to tell the knights to inspect the loot!
All along, old Warren wanted to buy Wang Xu and let him follow him back to the griffin kingdom, because he thought that Wang Xu was the kind of top talent who could revive a country, but when he knew that Wang Xu was the sixth son of the elf king, he gave up this idea, and he understood that no matter how sincere he was, he would not be able to buy a prince of the elf clan!
Therefore, old Warren's current plan is to have a good relationship with Wang Xu, and in the future, maybe people will look at this dewy marriage with him and help the griffin kingdom!
"Click, click, bang......" all kinds of noises began to sound constantly, and the knights began to unpack, although those boxes still have some artistic value in appearance, but most of those knights are rough people, and they have no ability to appreciate art, so they cut down the boxes one by one in order to get the golden horns on the eight corners of the box!
Seeing that wooden boxes that could sell for a lot of money were chopped into rotten sawdust, the corners of Wang Xu's distressed mouth twitched!
"Wow, look, how beautiful this sword is, look at this bright silver stainless steel material, how beautiful, look at this curved sword body, as soft as water!"
"Wow, come and see, this bow is so green, it seems to be made of leaves, you come to try this bowstring, I can't even pull it, what a strong bow!"
"Good guy, look at this shield, although it is made of wood, but the formation inlaid with Mithril on it seems to be a formation to increase defense!"
......
While unpacking and inspecting the goods, the knights admired the beauty of the contents of the box, after all, all the equipment in all the boxes was made by the elven craftsmen with the spirit of craftsmanship, and these equipment were not only full of combat effectiveness, but also almost every piece of art!
In a short time, about two dozen chests were destroyed into rotten wood by the knights, and from these chests, they obtained more than a hundred elven swords more than a meter long, more than two hundred green elven shortbows, and thousands of arrows that were also green, each with a sharp steel arrow!
"Look, here, what is this?" said one of the knights, as if he had noticed something, and waved his hand behind him, calling his comrades to come and watch.
Wang Xu, who heard the knight shouting, turned his head to look at the knight, but at this moment, there was a group of people gathered there, and he could see nothing except a crowd of people.
So, Wang Xu walked over and said, "Please let me take a look!"
Hearing Wang Xu's voice, more than 30 knights huddled together instinctively moved to both sides to make way for Wang Xu, so Wang Xu walked in, and behind him, he was followed by the four daughters of Nilou and Warren and others.
Walking to the front, Wang Xu found that after losing the "box wall", on the deepest wall of the cave, there were two broken stone statues carved in relief, both of which stood on a calf-high square stone platform, about five or six meters apart.
The two stone statues were blackened by the charcoal fire, and there was a layer of oil stains on their bodies, this state is no different from the rest of the cave, the only difference is that these two stone statues look very historical vicissitudes!
One of the stone statues, having lost its head, looked like a male human, with a sleek and strong upper body, bulging chest muscles, a pair of shorts on the lower body, and distinct muscles in the thighs.
Another stone statue has only a calf left, but looking at the shape and thickness of the leg, it can be seen that this should be a human female!
On the wall of the cave between the two statues, there is a fresco covered with black charcoal ash and black oil stains, and from the frescoes that are not completely covered by stains, some of the contents of the frescoes are revealed, and those contents are about a powerful race that has disappeared in ancient times......
