In the elven palace, the elven queen Rose was very angry when she heard that her daughter had actually brought humans to her home, and she was about to smash the beautiful palace to pieces at this moment. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The tail of the kneeling dog under the palace trembled and did not dare to say a word, for fear of angering the grumpy queen.
"Are there really eight of them, and all of them are wounded?" asked Queen Rose again.
"I swear in the name of the elves that everything I say is the truth. Dogtail raised his right hand above his head and said loudly, knowing that only then would the Queen let him go.
Rose also eats this set, after all, this is the highest oath of the elf clan, and if it is violated, it will be spurned by the elf world.
"Alright, you go down. Rose paused and said sharply, "Call Jasmine to me, and let her come at once!"
The dog's tail, who had just stood up, shuddered at Rose's high-pitched voice, nodded and walked out of the palace. also pinched a cold sweat for the 'storm' that Jasmine will face.
"How could it be that a human came to our territory with a wound, could it be that they were attacked by orcs on the way over? But the appointed time of the month has not arrived, and even if they come, it is impossible to bring a weak woman. 」
Rose was confused and shocked by Rhodes' arrival, she thought it was that wave of people when she first heard about the arrival of humans, but she couldn't complete the task at this time.
But then I heard Dogtail's explanation, it didn't seem to be the wave of people she had in mind, to the point that it was like a martyred nobleman with soldiers and maids.
"Despicable humans can't stay, no matter what. Rose thought to herself through gritted teeth.
After about ten minutes, the door of the palace was opened by Jasmine, and she ran to Rose happily and was about to come into Rose's arms, unaware of the danger that was coming.
In fact, Dog Tail also wanted to make it clear to Jasmine, but as soon as she said that the Queen was looking for her, Jasmine couldn't bear to run to the palace, and said that she wanted to surprise the Queen, and the kind Jasmine had no idea that the surprise he was going to give the Queen would become a fright from the Queen.
"Mother, let me tell you, I've seen humans, and it's fun. Jasmine said to Rose with a grin.
Just when he was about to rush to the rose, he was rotted by the rose. Jasmine could see the displeasure on her mother's face, and gradually restrained her movements, standing beside Rose obediently.
"You brought them here, and if you know the details of them, you dare to bring despicable and shameless humans home. Do you want to kill the whole clan?" said Rose sternly, not giving her daughter any face.
"They are not despicable and shameless human beings, they have no malice, and they have no weapons with them, how can they harm their people. Aren't all our food from humans? Without them, we would all starve to death, wouldn't we? Mother. Jasmine patiently explained.
Elves also belong to a branch of orcs, undoubtedly unable to escape the mania of the full moon night, elves do not eat meat, it is impossible to hunt low-level animals like other orcs, even if they plant food every year, they will be made by themselves or other orcs because of the 'beast tide'.
Wild food is always scarce, it is impossible to feed more than 300 elves, and the elves have not been strong because of food, but one day, a large amount of food appeared in the elves, and the explanation given by the queen rose to everyone was sent by humans.
On that day, the elves were full of laughter, and there was no one who did not say anything about the goodness and greatness of mankind. Since then, a batch of grain will be delivered to the elves on time every month, and the elves will no longer be bothered by the matter of food, if it weren't for the inevitable sacrifice of some clansmen during the 'beast tide', the elves may not be the status quo for a long time.
And now Jasmine really doesn't know why her mother is so angry and shows such strong hostility towards humans, this is not what the queen declares to the outside world, and she should show to kind humans. Jasmine had to be suspicious of the origin of the grain.
"Do you know how shameless humans are? Rose said, "Forget it, I won't tell you this, anyway, you have to know that humans are not good things, you let them go quickly, and leave our territory immediately." ”
"But they're not healed, Mother. Jasmine tried her best to persuade Rose to keep Rod and them, but in her eyes, Rod was not the despicable and shameless person his mother said. At least in her opinion, Rhodes is a very polite, humorous and funny person.
Rose knew that she couldn't persuade the stubborn Jasmine, Jasmine was not afraid of her, and in front of Jasmine, Rose was not a queen at all, just an amiable mother. And isn't Jasmine's personality what she is used to?
"My dear child, you must know that the 'Beast Tide' is about to happen, and do you want them to die at your own hands? ”
Jasmine shuddered when she heard the beast tide, she didn't want to remember the three days of the month, in those three days, every day was a mess, conscious but the body was uncontrollable, often doing things that she didn't want to do, she even saw one of her clansmen shoot bows and arrows at another clansman, and the scene of her brain making her feel sick every time she thought about it.
But this thing of shooting their own people basically won't happen, and the basic consciousness given to them by the 'beast tide' is to be able to distinguish their own people. But the orcs never considered the elven branch their own, because they looked too much like humans.
This meant that they had to face other orcs who had fallen behind on their way to the human castle without being in their own sense. Tens of millions of orcs, even if they are far away from the beast camp, they will be attacked by hundreds of orcs every month, which is the fundamental reason why the elf race is not strong.
"Is there no other way? They are so pitiful, they are all hurt. Jasmine said with a pout.
"Son, there is no other way, you can't protect them at all, and after three days, you will show your cruel side in front of them." ”
Jasmine didn't speak, she pondered for a while, she really didn't want to hurt Rhodes and his party, he looked so elegant, and she didn't want Rhodes to see her like a crazy girl, and hit anyone she saw.
"All right, Mother. I'll go back and let them go, and may they have a safe journey. Jasmine folded her hands and closed her eyes as she prayed for Rod as he was leaving.
Rose also joined Jasmine with her hands together and said, "May they have a safe journey." ”
