Chapter 7: The Runaway Elf Slave Girl
Early the next morning.
"Who? Stop!"
The fog was thick and before dawn, Lei Luo in the tent was woken up by a roar.
hurriedly climbed out of the tent, but saw the middle-aged knight leader holding a long sword, and a tall and weakened figure in the fog, faintly confronting.
Others also climbed out of their tents and stood together.
By the remnants of the firelight, everyone approached slightly, and when they saw the specific appearance of this person, they were all stunned and said, "Elf?"
Tall and tall, graceful, and pointed ears, this is indeed a forest elf, and it seems that she is just a young elf girl.
Elves live in the thorny forests outside the human realm, and like dwarves, they often haunt large human city-states, and belong to a foreign race that is friendly with humans, and ordinary people have heard of it even if they have never seen it.
In the more remote places of the continent far from humans, there are many other alien civilizations, and there are even many races that humans have never heard of.
The Crusaders of the Church have made many expeditions to a terrible alien territory known as the Land of Nightfall to defeat a heretical civilization known as the Bloodline, destroying the evil heretical temple there.
The middle-aged knight leader withdrew his long sword and explained to the people around him: "The fog is thick, this elf came in a hurry just now, I thought it was some kind of beast. ”
Whew, whew.
At the elven girl's gasp, Lei Luo looked through the hazy mist and looked at it carefully.
The tender white skin is largely exposed, only some key parts are hidden by leaves, the tall and bewitching fiery body is enough to make any woman jealous, and it is the morning of early spring, the elf girl shiveres in the cold, and gasps for tiredness.
The elven girl looked back from time to time, as if she was afraid of something behind her, like a helpless poor lamb, to be pitied.
This was the first time Lei Luo had seen the opposite sex so exposed in front of him, and his cheeks immediately turned red, and he didn't dare to look at it again.
The knight leader shouted at the elven maiden, "We are travelers to St. Granburg, and the sound of your running gasp has mistaken me for a beast, and you can go over." ”
The elven girl didn't seem to understand human language, and just stood there gasping for breath, not responding.
As if afraid of the human knights in front of her, the elven girl did not dare to move forward, and her anxious face flowed with tears of pleading.
"What's wrong with her?"
Orn asked the knight chief.
The knight leader frowned and said, "An elf who doesn't understand human language is dressed so revealingly in human territory, it looks like ...... Although the principalities of the human race have already signed a contract with the elf ministries to strictly prohibit all acts of capturing elven slaves, because of the outstanding beauty of these elves, there are still some corrupt nobles who secretly raise elven slaves, and many dark mercenaries take risks for the sake of profit, and those half-elves who are spurned by humans and elves generally come from this. ”
As the knight leader spoke, a few dogs barked in the fog of the distant forest.
"Just ahead, don't let her run!"
When the elf girl heard the footsteps chasing behind, her face couldn't help but be even more frightened, but because she was afraid of the tall and strong human knights in front of her, she didn't dare to continue to move forward, but just stood in place and sobbed silently, looking at everyone pleadingly.
Lei Luo stole a look at the reactions of several people.
The two young knights swallowed their saliva unconsciously, first showing their surprise at seeing the elf for the first time, their eyes wandering around the graceful figure of the elf girl, instinctively greedy for the beauty of the elf girl, and then they seemed to notice their gaffe, and hurriedly turned their faces sideways to hide their shame.
The middle-aged knight leader looked calm and thoughtful, his eyes were deep and extremely calm.
The female knight showed great sympathy, and after glancing at the silent middle-aged knight leader, she looked at Orn behind her.
"Damn fallen moths!"
Orn's voice came almost from between his teeth, and he looked angry and disgusted, as if he was ashamed that such a thing had happened in front of him, and he pointed to the knight leader: "You must protect this elf, maintain the reputation of the Duchy of Gran, and ensure that she returns home safely!"
"Yes!"
The knight leader looked at Orn, nodded solemnly, put on his helmet again, looked behind the elf with solemn eyes, waited for the battle, and roared in a low voice: "Draw your sword!"
The female knight breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly put on the metal helmet, revealing only a pair of cold eyes that were waiting for her.
The two young knights took a deep breath, as if they were ashamed of their instinctive evil thoughts at that moment, their cheeks flushed after the captain's low roar, and their eyes showed the blood that looked like death, hiding their shame and nervousness.
Whew!
With the chaotic footsteps in the depths of the mist, several tall figures gradually appeared, and after seeing the figure of the elf girl who stopped in the fog in front of him, a rough and happy voice came.
"Found it, right ahead!"
Beside Orn, Relo tensed up, doing his best to behave normally, without showing shameful cowardice.
Orn, who was on the side, secretly swallowed his saliva.
After seeing that there were only four pursuers coming out of the fog, Orn breathed a sigh of relief and touched the gem ring on his right hand, the gem shone slightly red, and calmed down.
"Stop!"
The middle-aged knight leader stood at the front of everyone and shouted loudly, roaring, "We are the Glory Knight of the Mountain Ridge Family, why are you chasing this elf?"
The roar of the knight leader suddenly made the hearts of the four people in the fog tense, stopped, and stared at them from a distance of dozens of meters
When it became clear that there were only six people on the other side, and two children, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmph, we are the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Group, we have received a mission from the mercenary hall, responsible for capturing this elven assassin who committed murder in Fort St. Gran, and accept the punishment of the sheriff, shielding her as an accomplice, don't worry about killing!
The captain of the mercenary who spoke was a bald man in his thirties, wearing earrings on his ears, wearing a black fur coat, a height of one meter nine, carrying a cold and cold battle axe, just standing there, like a wall, very oppressive, as if he was a beast that could pounce at any time.
The other three members of the mercenary team also looked like vicious people who licked blood from the knife edge, and one of them was holding a blood-colored wolf-headed flag.
One of them, a female archer in her twenties, with a bow bent by the full moon, with an arrow in her right hand, pointed to this side, as if she was ready to shoot an arrow that would bring death, and beside the female archer stood a huge black wolf, half a man tall, with a thorn-like metal ornament on her neck, fangs bared, and murderous bloody eyes.
"Warcraft?"
After Orn saw this black hyena, he observed it carefully, and after confirming it for a while, he shook his head and said, "It should be a bit of black flame wolf blood, Uncle Basel be careful." ”
"Got it!"
The middle-aged knight leader responded to Orn in a low voice, and laughed at the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Group: "Hahahaha, since you received the mission from the mercenary hall, then take out the mission contract! Hmph, don't you think we don't know?
The scene was extremely tense, and the battle was about to break out.
The elf girl in the middle of the confrontation seemed to know the middle-aged knight's kindness, and ran directly to this side.
The female knight said in a low voice, "Young Master, don't you know elven language?"
"I am a scholar who studies the laws of nature, majoring in the building blocks of mathematics and deriving the laws of nature, and Elvish is the subject of those scholars who study the mysteries of evolution, how could I!"
Orn said with annoyance: "No matter, save it first, it won't cost a lot of money to issue an escort mission at the St. Granburg Mercenary Hall!"
The other side.
The leader of the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Regiment, seeing that the prey that was about to be in his hands had fled, suddenly let out a low roar in his throat, like an awakened monster, just when the extremely oppressive mercenary leader was about to charge, suddenly, the female archer with the black hound behind him exclaimed: "Magician!"
Several members of the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Group were taken aback.
Looking from afar, I saw that behind the four knights, the palm of the half-grown boy actually ignited a flame, which was so dazzling in the night sky before it was completely dawn, and he was looking at this side with blazing eyes, ready to launch an unknown magic at any time!
Although the other party looked obviously a little nervous, the noble magician was by no means something that this kind of third-rate low-level mercenary group could come into contact with at will, and after discovering Orn's identity as a magician, they were even more nervous than Orn!
Countless mercenaries have used their blood experience to tell their juniors that if a mercenary group wants to develop and grow for a long time, it must hire a magician as the brain of the team, and a mercenary group without a magician must not conflict with a mercenary group with a magician, and once a conflict is compelled, the first target must be the opponent's magician!
"Hey, Lei Luo, you can disguise yourself too!"
Orn's trembling voice, almost coming from between his teeth, was tense.
Lei Luo hurriedly responded, "Oh oh!"
Lei Luo casually picked up Orn's notebook and flipped through it slowly, as if he was about to launch a powerful magic at any time, but his palms were already sweaty, and his legs were a little weak.
This kind of real sword and real gun formation, Lei Luo has never really experienced.
"What should I do?"
Behind the leader of the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Regiment, another man with a scar held a two-handed sword and asked hesitantly.
In the hearts of mercenaries, magicians have an extremely high status, and the senior mercenary group will inevitably hire a magician as the core member of the team under extremely favorable conditions, because in addition to the mysterious magical power, the most important thing for magicians is their profound knowledge, cognitive understanding of the mysterious phenomena of nature, which can save the entire mercenary group in many times of crisis!
"Withdraw!"
Viciously looked at the middle-aged knight leader, and took a deep look at the magician full of unknown mysteries, the leader of the Black Devil Wolf Mercenary Group actually stopped his feet at the moment before the outbreak, and without hesitation, he turned around and left with the three of them, disappearing into the mist.
