Chapter 64: Patriarch Soth
The elves are just like his name, the elves have a beautiful face, and the figure of the elven women is impeccable, and the elves have a long lifespan, and the average human being is already a long life when they are old, but in the eyes of the elves, a hundred years old is just middle age.

The patriarch lived in a big tree in the center of the grass and wood elf tribe, yes, this was a towering giant tree with a diameter of more than thirty meters, however, this was only a giant tree, not a tree, Duan Xiaofei saw that this giant tree was neatly cut off from about fifty meters, leaving only a large wooden stake.
Duan Xiaofei couldn't imagine what this tree used to look like, at that time, just this tree could carry an entire ethnic group.
Walking into this huge treehouse, Duan Xiaofei was not surprised, the patriarch of the elven clan was a white-haired old man who looked to be about seventy years old - of course, by human standards.
Of course, Duan Xiaofei knew that this patriarch was probably more than ten times older than him.
As the patriarch, he naturally knew the lingua franca of the mainland, and hundreds of years gave him enough time to learn another language.
"Hello, Mr. Duan. ”
The patriarch got up very politely, and flew towards Duan Xiaofei with the etiquette of an elf clan, although he gave Duan Xiaofei enough respect, but still did not lose the demeanor of the patriarch of the clan, he sat back on the chair, and said, "Our warrior has told me about your deeds just now. ”
"Hehe, it's nothing, I'm just trying to protect myself. Duan Xiaofei told the truth.
"Since you can fight more than twenty orcs on your own, of course it proves that you are a powerful warrior. The patriarch stroked his beard and said, "If we let these orcs into the tribe, I'm afraid we will lose a lot, so thank you for your help." ”
Before Duan Xiaofei entered the patriarch's cabin, he listened to the elven clan's translator and told him the name of the patriarch, the patriarch's name was Suos, and he had been the patriarch of the grass and wood elf clan for hundreds of years.
However, Duan Xiaofei looked at the appearance of the patriarch of Sos, and it seemed that he had some difficulty in his heart.
"Mr. Duan, I see that your strength is extraordinary, I don't know, are you willing to do us a favor?"
Sure enough, Duan Xiaofei didn't guess wrong, and after hesitating for a moment, the Soth Patriarch finally made his request.
Duan Xiaofei looked at the other elves standing on both sides of the room, who were able to enter here were naturally the core members of the clan, and after the patriarch said this, their expressions seemed to be a little lost.
After the Patriarch of Soth made this request, Duan Xiaofei also recalled what he had seen and heard in the Grass and Tree Elf Territory in the past two days, and it was indeed a tense atmosphere, and every elven archer standing on the platform of the tree was very cautious and observed the surrounding environment.
Of course, Duan Xiaofei didn't immediately agree to Patriarch Sos's request, but he didn't immediately refuse, he asked, "I don't know if I have anything I can do to help Patriarch Soss?"
"Well, actually, even if you didn't come, we would go. Soth sighed lightly, and immediately told Duan Xiaofei about the troubles that the elf clan had encountered recently.
Roughly like this, since three years ago, a group of orcs suddenly came near the territory of this grass and wood elves, but after all, the elf sea and the territory of the orcs are connected together, so it is not uncommon to occasionally encounter orcs in the forest, although the elves who have always paid attention to appearance and etiquette have no good impression of the barbaric and ugly orcs, but there is no hatred between the two sides, therefore, the well water has always been not the river water.
Until this group of orcs came to the territory of the grass and wood elves and stationed in the walled city.
The orcs are about half a day's distance from the elven tribe, which is not far from the vast forest, and the elves are of course very dissatisfied with the behavior of the orcs - after all, the elves worship nature, and cutting down trees and hunting are necessary for the survival of the orcs, and this kind of barbaric behavior in the eyes of the elves does not matter if it is only in their own territory, after all, no matter how much the elves look at him, there is no way to stop the other party's survival.
However, this group of orcs was so close that even the elves who went out could occasionally bump into orcs hunting in the forest, so the chief of Soth immediately sent someone to negotiate.
However, to the shock of the entire grass and wood elf tribe, these orcs not only did not accept the elven tribe's proposal, but also killed the three elves sent by Soth to negotiate.
This kind of thing had only happened once in the two hundred years of the Soth Patriarch, how could he not be angry?
As a result, the two sides instantly turned into a life-and-death hostile relationship.
The elves have always been friendly to their forest partners, but they will not be soft on their enemies, and at that time they sent archers to shoot letters into the orc stockade, and the two sides officially declared war.
Of course, the elves were working together to drive away this group of nasty orcs, but who would have expected that that night, the grass and wood elf tribe would be attacked by the orcs.
No, it can't be said to be an orc attack, the average orcs are green-skinned, tall and humanoid, but this time the elven tribe was attacked by some monsters with dark skin, extremely ugly appearance, and even rotten bodies!
Although they generally look like orcs, they are by no means orcs, but half-orcs who use evil magic to get their bodies back on their feet.
That night, the elves suffered heavy losses, and the elven warriors lost almost a third.
Since then, the Grass Elf Tribe has cut off almost all trade with the outside world - except for the largest merchant group in the human world, the Bauhinia Merchant Clan.
This is also the reason why Ward can enter the Grass and Wood Elf Tribe, after the tribe closes the gate, he only has a small amount of contact with the Bauhinia Merchant Group, and what Ward carries is the token of the Bauhinia Merchant Group.
In the past three years, the grass and wood elf tribe has been attacked by the orcs almost every once in a while, but fortunately, the tribe has long been prepared, they have narrowed the scope of the tribe, set up a guard on the periphery, and almost every few trees stand an elven archer, which has stopped the occasional attack of the orcs.
And this night, it was the orcs who attacked again, but Duan Xiaofei secretly ran over because he felt the breath of the ancient one while meditating, and happened to run into the orcs coming from the other direction.
So, he unexpectedly did the elven tribe a great favor, if he didn't stop this group of half-orcs, then the tribe would definitely be attacked.
And now, what the Patriarch of Soth is preparing is to gather the best forces of the elves, and want to take the initiative to drive the orcs away from this forest forever.
Although the warriors of the elven clan are very enthusiastic about this, and they all join the team spontaneously for the sake of their homeland, but although the combat effectiveness of the elven warriors is not bad, they do not have the strongest elite strength, and in the orc tribe, there must be a powerful dark wizard.
"Here's the thing, the evil magic of resurrecting the dead orcs is only possible with powerful orc dark wizards, so, in this orc tribe, there must be a dark wizard, our warriors can deal with ordinary orcs and half-orcs, but there is not much chance of winning against dark wizards, even if they can win, they will definitely have to pay a heavy price. ”
The patriarch of Soth also sighed again and again when he talked about these things, and it was clear that the tribe had been harassed by the orcs for several years.
Of course, Duan Xiaofei understood what Sos wanted him to do, this patriarch obviously wanted him to join the team of crusading against the beast clan.
