"Hah...... Ha...... Ha ......" The audience burst into laughter. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"General Ranger, aren't you in the water, and a group of ant-like civilians can help us defend against the demons?" Moko teased mercilessly.

"Civilians, human civilians are ignorant, untalented, cowardly, and I don't know what they can do. Several of the other elders also looked mocking and shook their heads one after another.

"Not long ago, the Grand Duke of Odinan of the Principality of Morowingian defeated the demons completely by the power of the civilians, without the Heavy Knights, without the Mage Regiment, but they managed to hold the capital and advance the battle line for hundreds of kilometers. Hypatia smiled slightly, "Elder Moko, can you still say that these civilians are useless?"

Moko was again dumbfounded, and had to retreat to the side in a huff.

"General Hypatia, in order to fight against the demons, we can also consider forming an alliance with any potential force, but I have to remind you that the objects of our alliance will definitely not include those who are not firm enough in their belief in the gods, especially those of the Xia tribe, who have no faith at all. The high priest stared sternly at Hypatia.

"But the Xia people are also victims of the demon invasion, and they can also help us a lot. Hypatia disagreed.

"Help?" Elder Tyrrell, who had been silent before, sneered at this moment, "How did I hear that there are many Xia people in the small human countries around them who have defected to the Demon Race?

"The human nobles who have taken refuge in the demons are no less than the Xia people, Elder Tyrrell. Hypatia raised her eyebrows and continued to retort: "Besides, most of these Xia people who have taken refuge in the demon clan are forced to be cornered, you must know that the whole world is suppressing and excluding them, if we can be more tolerant, they will not be like this at all." ”

Hypatia raised her wrist and took out a stack of carefully bound documents from the storage ring------ which was the information about the demons that Marven had given her.

"Please take a look at this!" Hipatia held the document high above her head and looked around, "This is information that the Xia people risked their lives to get from the demons, because of this information, we clearly know the march of the Demon Blood River Legion and its troop allocation, and finally wiped them out in one fell swoop!"

"The Xia clan will be the most potential force, they are like a sleeping lion, once they wake up, the whole world will be shaken!"

"General Hypatia. The Elf King raised his hand to interrupt her, "Regarding the question of the Xia people, I would like to reiterate two points. ”

"First, the Xia are a people who have no faith and are abandoned by the gods, and our war with the demons will be a war of faith, and it would be blasphemy to be too close to them. ”

"Second, the weakening of the seal of the demon world is inseparable from the Xia people, although it cannot be proved that the Xia people are the main cause of the weakening of the seal, but it also cannot prove that there is no connection between the two, and the blessing of the gods is the key to ensuring the peace of Middle-earth, we need to be cautious on this issue, follow the teachings of the gods, and eliminate all factors that may interfere with the seal. ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Lockheed bowed to the Elf King, then got up and said: "The Xia people are heretics without faith, their existence has always been an unstable factor in this world, yes, today they can find information for us, but tomorrow they may sell our information to the people of the demon race, we must not have the slightest mercy and weakness in dealing with heretics, only by following the teachings of the gods, we can obtain the protection of the gods, repel the demons, and regain peace and tranquility." ”

"It seems that His Excellency the High Priestess has placed all his hopes of repelling the demons on the gods. Hypatia chuckled and asked coldly, "What if the gods don't give us true protection?"

"That's because our faith is not religious enough!"

The High Priest silently stared at Hypatia for a moment, and a sneer gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Hypatia, you dare to question the supreme gods, you must know that your behavior is enough to be condemned to blasphemy in a human country!"

"That's it!" Mo Ke also echoed on the side, and said in a strange manner: "General Ranger, don't think that you can see everything after a few victories, you must know that we can win today's victory mainly by the wise leadership of His Majesty the Elf King, not your boring cleverness!"

"We need to be humble and godly enough before God......"

Next, the elven high-level simply put Hypatia aside and began to talk about the issue of faith, everyone unanimously emphasized that maintaining a pious belief in the gods is the key to solving the problem of the demons, and the high priest even began to explain the classics of the major religions, and everyone listened to it with relish, and a high-level meeting finally gradually entered a climax in the pious prayer to the gods.

Hypatia silently put away the information, staring out the window with her eyes blank, her long, white fingers gently ruffling her silky hair. The voice in her ears seemed to be getting farther and farther away from her.

The Council did not solve any practical problems at all, but repeatedly emphasized her devotion to the gods and prayed for mercy from the gods, and when Hypatia thought about this, she felt an unspeakable sense of loss and melancholy welling up in her heart.

The meeting continued in a lively atmosphere, and the high priest talked about the miracles that had sprung up in several holy cities of mankind not long ago, and everyone was amazed and curious to ask for details.

"Your Excellency High Priest, I have a question. After listening to Lockheed's frowning explanation for a long time, the elven king Carolinge frowned and wondered: "Our night elves are no less devout to the gods than any human being, why haven't miracles come to our elven land, are we still not thoroughly abiding by the teachings of the gods, why haven't the gods given us such favor?"

"Hmm...... The ......'s always eloquent high priest was speechless at the moment, and he was embarrassed to find that they had strictly followed all the teachings of the gods, and had banished all heretics, including the Xia people, early, and there seemed to be no reason why they should not be favored by the gods.

For a while, the other elf high-level also whispered and talked below, the elves have always been arrogant and conceited, and have always refused to be inferior to humans, but this fact made them feel extremely embarrassed and embarrassed.

"Perhaps, we may really be inferior to human beings in some aspects......" Lockheed gave a reluctant explanation, however, as soon as these words came out, the young high priest immediately regretted it.

The ministers were in an uproar, and the entire hall was almost blown up.

"Impossible! How could our noble Night Elves be inferior to humans!"

"Humans are greedy and stupid, and their faith could not be more religious than ours!"

"Your Highness, High Priest, as our religious leader, you have made such irresponsible remarks, where is the dignity of our elven race?!"

Everyone expressed their protests one after another, and Lockheed was so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to get into.

"Everyone, be quiet, listen to me!" Elder Tyrell raised his arm to stop the boiling crowd.

"We Night Elves are extremely talented and steadfast in our beliefs, and the gods will never abandon us, and the reason why this is happening is that some of us have done blasphemous things!"

"Blasphemy?, who could that be?" With the question in mind, everyone listened with bated breath as Elder Tyrell spoke.

Tyrell stretched out his finger and pointed at Hypatia, "It's her, Hypatia! She secretly took in a large number of Xia people in the Bekaa Valley! That cursed people still exist in our land! The gods have been blasphemed, and naturally they will not give us the favor they deserve!"

The entire hall was silent for a few seconds.

Hypatia looked back blankly, her usual composure, but there was some panic and panic in her eyes.

The overwhelming insults and pointing came immediately, but she didn't seem to hear it, and only one thought flashed in her confused mind------- the matter of taking in the Xia people had been going on in secret, and she hadn't revealed it to anyone except her own cronies, how did Elder Tyrell know?

"Hypatia, I command you to execute those Xia people on the spot at once! to seek the forgiveness of the gods!" the Elven King coldly ordered.

"Your Majesty......" Hypatia knelt down in front of him, "those Xia people have done nothing wrong, they are innocent......"

"But they are people who have no faith and are cursed by God, and we must no longer tolerate their existence!" the Elven King's tone remained cold and resolute.

"God is not necessarily right, my majesty. Hypatia stood up and looked directly at the Elven King in front of her, "We should not harm those innocent people, whether they are truly abandoned by the gods or not!"

"Hypatia, please be careful of your words and deeds!' what you have done constitutes blasphemy!" the High Priest shouted loudly, "In order to regain the favor of the gods as soon as possible, and for the sake of the future of the entire Night Elves, you should carry out Your Majesty's orders as soon as possible!"

"I'm sorry, but I can't carry out the order to kill innocents. Hypatia raised her head and looked coldly at the Elven King and the High Priest, "I wonder if such indiscriminate killing of innocents can get the favor of that god, is it the Demon God?"

"You dare to disobey my orders!" the Elven King was furious and snapped up, "Hypatia! From today onwards, you will no longer be the Ranger General, and the High Priest will be in charge of the defense of the homeland, and you will not have to go back!

"I'm not going anywhere, Your Majesty!" Hypatia unloaded her longbow as a ranger general and threw it at Lockheed's feet, "I will always stay in the Bekaa Valley, and as long as I'm here, you won't want to hurt the Xia Clan!"

"In order to protect those heretics, can you even ignore the elves?" the elven king was angry, pointing at her back and scolding, "The demons invade, and the first to bear the brunt is our night elf clan, if you ......"

"I will continue to fight the demons until I die!" Hipatia paused in the doorway, and then her arrogant and beautiful back faded into the afterglow of the setting sun.
