Chapter 51: The Elven Frontier
With the breeze blowing across his face and the white clouds drifting underneath him, Arthur leaned on the side of the boat, looking at the distant mountains, rivers and forests, enjoying the joy of flying.
The most important thing is that Alia is by her side, leaning on the side of the boat with a blank face, immersed in her own world.
I haven't seen her for more than a year, and Arya has gained weight again, and her face, which was originally a little baby fat, now looks round and cute. It can be seen that Sino makes people take care of Arya very well.
Arthur couldn't help but squeeze Arya's hand, "Come on, wait a little longer, I'll have a way to wake you up soon." ”
The dwarven airship shook violently, and everyone almost fell, and Arthur held Arya tightly in his arms.
The airship was rapidly falling to the ground, and the ship was suddenly in chaos.
"What the hell is going on? Are we being attacked?"
"Don't panic, everyone is holding on, we seem to have encountered the Forbidden Sky Magic Array. Steel Bean yelled.
After shouting, Gangdou flew out of the airship directly, holding the bottom of the airship with his hand, and trying his best to slow down the speed of falling, but how could Gangdou alone drag such a huge airship.
Sino, Yunmeng, and Spence, who was barely able to fly from an old injury, all flew out, and the four of them worked together to slow down the speed of the airship's fall, and finally smashed countless dense branches before falling smoothly to the ground.
At this moment, the airship landed in the middle of an endless jungle, surrounded by tall, dense trees.
The old dwarf Yunmeng looked at the surrounding trees and said, "We should have entered the realm of the elves by now, and the forbidden sky magic array we encountered before should have been deliberately set up by the elves to prevent the invasion of flying creatures. ”
As the old dwarf spoke, there was a sound of rustling among the trees around him, and a slender and vigorous figure walked quickly through the trees, showing his figure from among the branches around him, and the carved bow was opened, and a sharp arrow was aimed at the dwarf and Arthur in the middle.
Arthur raised his eyes and saw that there were more than thirty elves around him, all of them wearing delicate armor and handsome appearances. Although pointed at the tip of the arrow, Arthur was not afraid but excited, and these elves reminded him of Iraya, who taught him archery.
"Who are you? You have invaded the land of the Elven Kingdom. "A middle-aged elf dressed in silver openwork armor emerged from behind a tree.
"I am Yunmeng of the Dwarf Kingdom, and I am sent to the Elven Kingdom on the orders of the Dwarf King, and the Dwarf King has something particularly important to convey to the Elf Queen. Yunmeng took the initiative to throw a token engraved with the dwarf king's mark to the elf on the other side.
The middle-aged elf looked at the token carefully and returned it to Yunmeng.
"We can trust the dwarves, but what's going on with those Terrans in your ranks?"
Yun Meng had already thought of the wording before this, "A few of them are our dwarven friends, and they are also related to the matter that the dwarf king wants to tell the elf queen, so let these people follow our mission to meet the elf queen." ”
"Terrans are not welcome in the elven kingdom, you dwarves can enter the kingdom but they can't, we can not kill them for the sake of your dwarves, let them get out of here quickly. ”
Yunmeng and Arthur glanced at each other, but they didn't expect this elf to be so stubborn.
Fortunately, Yunmeng had planned for various situations before this, "In this case, we will go back to report to the Dwarf King, but please remember that once disaster befalls your elves, it is all caused by your negligence today." ”
After Yunmeng finished speaking, he beckoned the dwarves to start returning to the airship.
The middle-aged elf who led the team immediately hesitated, if the matter of the dwarf king and queen was delayed because of these few people, the responsibility was definitely not something he could bear.
"Wait. ”
Yun Meng and Arthur were waiting for this sentence, but Yun Meng still pretended to be a gesture and slowly turned around, "Do you have anything else?"
"We elves can't trust those Terrans, after all, the Terrans are too cunning, maybe you dwarves have been deceived by them. ”
"We dwarves don't need you elves to teach us how to distinguish between friend and foe?" Yunmeng roared, feigned anger.
"Unless, unless they can earn the trust of our elves?"
Arthur and Yunmeng glanced at each other and took the initiative to answer, "How can we win your trust?"
The middle-aged elf immediately said, "There is a cunning Terran hunting party roaming around here, and unless you can kill them and bring their heads back, I can believe that you are not in the same group as them." ”
Arthur smiled, isn't this just a vote?
......
In a dense plantain forest, more than a dozen men in hunting costumes are resting under trees.
Even when they were resting, they did not let up in the slightest, and there were five or six men who had been looking around vigilantly on the periphery, their well-equipped, their bodies exuding a vigilant, fierce aura, and they were all veterans of hunting.
In the same way as hunting, the danger of capturing elves is more than ten times that of hunting demonic beasts, and this is a task that can lose your head at any time. Of course, the return corresponding to the risk is naturally more than ten times.
At this time, there were two snakeskin pockets beside the middle-aged man who led the team, and the snakeskin pockets squirmed from time to time, and the contents were naturally the harvest of their trip.
The man couldn't hide the smile on his face, and when it got dark, dozens of miles ahead was the border of the human race. As long as you cross the border, the two female elves in your pocket are 20,000 gold coins. Among their team, at least a few hundred gold coins can be shared.
A few hundred gold coins is equivalent to a year's worth of pay for a lieutenant-level mercenary, and they only need this hunting mission. In the face of huge gains, there is never a shortage of guys who are willing to take risks for it!
It's just that they are destined not to see the moment when they exchange the elves for gold coins this time, and Arthur above the banana forest looked at the slave traders below with cold eyes.
In the dense jungle, it may be very difficult for the elves to search for this hunting party of a dozen people, but it is not too difficult for Arthur.
Arthur, Shino, Spence, Steel Bean, and Yunmeng all have the ability to fly in the air, and the five of them are separated by a mile to launch a carpet search from the air, combing through the jungle inch by inch, and it only took half a day to lock down the location of these slave traders.
Even without the elves' request for a name, Arthur had no sympathy for these slave traders, and the act of exchanging the lives of other races for money at the expense of the lives of other races was simply inhumane, and it was not a pity for these people to die!
The man in the leader of the hunting team looked at Arthur and the others in mid-air, but he still pretended to be calm and said: "Everyone is a human race, and it is fate to meet, how about sharing half of our harvest this time?"
Shino smiled coldly, "We don't want your gains, we just want to borrow your heads." ”
Shino slashed down with a sword light as he spoke.
Sino made a move, and there was no suspense in the battle, Arthur himself only dealt with one, and the rest were all killed by Sino, and the others didn't even have a chance to shoot.
Arthur untied the snakeskin pocket beside the leading man, revealing the immature, confused faces of a pair of elven sisters......
