Chapter Eighty-Five: Fiasco

Huge flames exploded violently in the small lair, accompanied by a group of piercing, cursed screams from the devil of hell, and the cyan Harpy Chief fell to the ground unwillingly, blood flowing from the wounds on his body, but he could no longer move, his eyes open viciously, and gradually became unfocused.

Before the smoke and dust in the cave had cleared, Alpha rushed in, and with his excellent hearing, he rushed in one direction, and then crouched down next to a figure and helped the other person up.

"Alpha...... Mr. ......"

"Nope. ”

Alpha gritted his teeth and squeezed a byte out of his throat, but couldn't say anything more.

"Kill me......"

"What. Although he heard clearly, Alpha's shoulders shook and he asked as if he hadn't heard.

"Kill...... I'm ...... I...... Luck...... Encounter...... Alpha...... Mr...... But...... As an elf...... Harpy's insult ......"

The half-elf youth on the crook of the alpha arm had a look of resentment in his eyes, and the anger burned in his eyes like substance, but his body trembled at the mention of the harpy.

Alpha didn't dare to look at the other party's body, even if he had already looked down on life and death in the cruel trial, the appearance of the scaly wounds on his body would make him can't help but feel physical discomfort.

As for why he knew about it before he saw it, the reason was very simple......

This is not the first time.

A few months ago, he, Alpha, an ordinary lieutenant who graduated from the academy and had a sincere love for his homeland, came to the territory of this border in Khiva and met a group of like-minded partners.

Although most of them are half-elves, Alpha feels the yearning, longing and identification with the elven world and culture from them, so Alpha accepts them, trains them, and finally leads them to conquer the Osim Plateau for the sake of the empire.

In the beginning, they were just fighting for honor, and the half-elves just used this opportunity as the last straw in their lives - there was nothing more desperate than being a lowly "mongrel" in the Elven Empire. And Alpha is for the honor of the Empire.

But what happened next was unexpected, as they went deeper, although the Osim Plateau was wild and dangerous, but because of this, the Osim Plateau has accumulated invisible treasures for thousands of years in this isolated and inaccessible place.

Rare mineral deposits, rare old plants, all kinds of beasts and magical beasts, as they go deeper, are all discovered one by one.

When they tried to sell it for wealth in the empire, they were all stunned.

They will never forget that ordinary grass was exchanged for the equivalent of a year's tax revenue for the entire Shiva, but even so, when they heard that the goblin merchant had sold it to a mage for ten times the price, they realized that the price they had sold was no different from giving it away for nothing.

As if a switch was turned on, the following days were like a dream, and those high-ranking magical nobles, mages, sent people to negotiate with them, just in exchange for what they had in their hands, and in the end, they even alarmed the royal court.

Thanks to the efforts of Melgas, King Darth Rema even personally ordered Alpha to become the military commander of the Osim Plateau, with a legion formation.

With enough wealth and endless glory, it was as if everyone had been infused with the most powerful blessing magic, and there were constantly news of the news of the commoner elves and half-elves who were hungry for glory and wealth from all over the country to Shiva.

At this point, the elves' power on the Osim Plateau expanded faster and faster.

This wonderful day lasted until they desperately moved forward and came to a piece of Gobi to draw a stop charm.

Although they were disappointed by the harsh environment of the Gobi Desert in front of them, it was difficult for them to have such a rich harvest as before, but after spending so much effort to come here, how could they be willing to go back like this.

So, after Alpha and his deputies discussed, they decided to go deeper and see if the vast Gobi was the end of the Osim Plateau.

After all, although the wealth and glory they now possess seems so enviable, everyone in the legion knows that under this glamorous appearance, there is countless blood and pain in exchange.

Therefore, they cannot retreat, although the front is mysterious and dangerous, but the rear is as beautiful as a bubble.

They don't have a choice.

You know, now they have become a hot topic throughout the empire. Under the orders of their powerful emperor, the elves, who had been dormant for thousands of years, launched an all-out war against the surrounding countries.

These wars were all the result of hundreds of years of preparation and planning.

Despite the insane multi-faceted battle and the fierce enemy, all the elves believe that under the leadership of the king and the blessing of magic, the empire will eventually reach glory.

Countless resources and wealth have been invested in these three fronts, and the strong among the various magical nobles are also painstakingly planning the battle situation in all aspects.

However, the surrounding countries are not fools, and have long been prepared in their own ways, so the war has caused the wealth of the entire empire to be consumed rapidly, and there is little to be gained.

But at this critical juncture, an elven warrior of civilian origin, with a group of lowly half-elves, brought an astonishing fortune to the empire in a place where birds don't.

When these riches were appropriated to them by His Majesty the King, and those mud legs were given glory by His Majesty himself, the sensitive glass hearts of the mages shattered to the ground in an instant.

As the saying goes, the person who knows you best is your opponent.

If it were Goron, he would naturally not understand this naïve and self-centered way of thinking, but the half-elves were vaguely aware of it.

Although the half-elves are not enemies of the empire, the magical aristocracy regards them like livestock, and under the fierce class contradictions, they naturally have a set of philosophies with the mages. So, even though it was only a secret idea, everyone was aware of the discontent coming from within the empire.

Therefore, they cannot be returned.

As a result, they suffered the worst defeat in history.

The Harpys came like a storm, without negotiation or communication, and attacked them directly, just as they had done to the natives before.

Hated by the mages in the empire, Alpha's army naturally does not even have a single spellcaster, and the Harpys have been plundered by the excellent genes of other races for many years, and there are only five sacrifices in a small detachment.

It was difficult to repel them, but at this time, it was impossible for Alpha to withdraw again, in the continuous attacks of the Harpy, all his soldiers lost their combat effectiveness, the vast majority of them died directly, and a small number of people were taken away by the Harpy.

Only he escaped.
