Early the next morning.

The lord had Lesri seal the snake heart stone and let the convoy move on.

Sarah suggested that Leon let the convoy turn west and go to Changhe Town first.

"My lord, since the secret enemy knows your route, then you definitely shouldn't do what he wants!"

But Leon refused: "The enemy probably thinks the same thing...... Continuing south, we walked through the forest to the village......"

Sarah was puzzled: "The only one who can know your route is Ralph!" Are you still going to go where he said you would? ”

"Sarah, it wasn't Ralph's doing, he shouldn't be able to afford a killer like Risadilan. It's not just Ralph who knows my route, it's ...... others."

Li Ang said thoughtfully.

Sarah shook her head confused: "Something else? Rangers? They can't afford it......"

"Sarah, if you're the wounded elven assassin...... Where will you hide? ”

"In the forest, of course."

"That's right, I'm going to catch him."

Sarah didn't say anything more, she just silently put on a set of ranger armor and stayed by Leon's side.

Now that the lord has made a decision, as a subordinate, you should solve the problem for him, not create it.

Although Sarah has never liked to wear heavy armor.

The convoy continued to move slowly, but Anson stopped shooting birds.

He is now taking care of the wounded more carefully, probably because he wants his brothers to recover quickly and help as soon as possible.

Leon was no longer in the carriage, he got back on Alice, and was fully equipped, even adding a breastplate with a satin lining for the first time - a rudimentary body armor made of his own.

Bows and arrows were also carried on their backs.

In his hand, he kept carrying the slightly curved Noldor long sword that Risa Dilan threw down - there was no scabbard, so he had to carry it.

Klose was still in the carriage, not lazy, he was sharpening his sword.

He alone occupied a carriage with a pile of assorted swords.

It is more efficient to polish the equipment while walking.

Most of the team didn't expect that Klose was a good blacksmith before he became a soldier.

Most of the men in Metenheim actually know how to strike iron.

Their volcanic homeland is full of fine iron ore, and the god they worship is also the 'god of steel'.

The muscles and strength of that body are probably also trained by striking iron - it's just that this also causes the food consumption of the people of Metenheim to be particularly large, one to three......

Metenheim, with sparse arable land, could hardly feed these edible chunks, and there was often famine, so Metenheim became the 'Mercenary Wholesale Department'.

Klose is very satisfied with his current boss, because in his many years as a mercenary, he has only met Leon who is willing to let the Metenheim people eat openly.

Although the lord has always been reluctant to eat with them......

Everyone was on guard, but no one seemed to be complaining about anything.

In fact, everyone didn't realize that this lord, who was always a little out of tune, seemed to have taken only ten days to pinch this small team together.

In a different way.

The convoy gradually entered the forest, and the road in the forest gradually became less and less smooth.

But everyone was on guard along the way, but nothing happened.

Along the way, they didn't encounter anyone, except for the occasional wild deer or rabbit scurrying out of the nearby forest, which added a lot of food to the team.

"So much wildlife here? Why doesn't anyone come to hunt? ”

Leon asked John next to him, another master swimmer in armor.

"My lord, this neighborhood is already a frequent haunt of the Noldor elves, and hunters dare not come. In fact, no one dares to come here alone...... Only a convoy with a large number of men dares to pass through here, or those slave hunters......"

John nervously looked around and replied.

"Very few people pass by, and they can still maintain such a wide road......"

The road on the ground was a bit bumpy and overgrown with weeds, but it was quite spacious, and the carriage traveled without any problems.

"Presumably the slave catchers have been maintaining the road. The Noldor Elven Maiden has always been the most valuable slave, and the slave catchers have to transport them in prison carts. I'm in Singal and ...... Others...... They participated in an auction together, when three elven girls were auctioned for a sky-high price of 100,000 dinars...... But ......"

It was Sarah who spoke, and it seemed that there was someone in the words that she didn't want to mention, and she glanced at Leon with some concern, and continued, not intending to give people a chance to ask questions.

In fact, Leon heard it, but he didn't ask.

Only by respecting the privacy of each partner can the partner respect himself.

The Noldor Elves are not native to this continent, they are said to have only come to the Pander continent nearly a thousand years ago, and they seem to have a high level of technology.

However, no one knows how the Noldor Elves came to Pander.

They appear out of nowhere, occupying the depths of the Long River Forest, and do not interact with any humans.

They may think that humans are inferior animals, but in their eyes, humans are probably about the same, or maybe even worse, than the wild animals in the forest.

At least Noldor won't kill wild animals, but it will kill humans who dare to enter the Rivers of Rivers – and they have the ability to do so.

The deeper the forest, the more aggressive the Noldor elves become.

It is said that there is a beautiful sapphire lake in the heart of the Long River Forest, but no one has ever made it there alive.

Of course, there is no hatred in this world for no reason, and there is a natural reason why Noldor took the initiative to attack humans.

Noldor once had a high civilization that had been passed down for thousands of years, and originally just hid in the forest and did not want to clash with humans.

But the original tragedy came from their beauty.

Elves may be the darlings of the creator gods, each of them has a beautiful appearance and a long lifespan, and their snow-white skin is inherently indifferent—they are like works of art in themselves.

Except for their long, pointy ears, these beautiful creatures share the same physiology as humans - but have a tenfold lifespan and a hundredfold more beauty.

This beauty has an irresistible attraction for some people.

After many attempts, some human rulers have judged that the Noldor elves should not know any magic, but they are very strong and have an amazing level of craftsmanship.

However, the total population of the Noldor Elves is not large, it seems that there are only a few thousand people - perhaps the creator god is finding a balance, and the elves are very poor in their reproductive ability.

Of course, this may have something to do with their long lives and indifferent personalities.

They are beautiful, rare, powerful, proud, and contemptuous of humans.

- Each of them gives birth to the desires of the powerful of mankind, and the different desires are concentrated on the same goal.

Sex, possession, wealth, conquest, or whatever.

Together, these desires form an irresistible thirst for every human powerful to possess the Noldor Elves.

And as long as it doesn't involve uncharted territory such as magic, then human rulers can heap everything they want with their lives.

And so, a tragedy began.

This is the disaster of the Noldor and the carnival of the human aristocracy.

Some relatively friendly Noldor elves were maliciously captured unsuspectingly, and since then they have become the most dazzling playthings and possessions in the nobles' back houses......

Then a crazy comparison is ignited - everyone who has power and wealth wants to have a beautiful elf.

The king is no exception.

As a result, elven slaves have become expensive goods with no price, especially elven girls, whose value is almost equal to the annual tax of a large county!

Moreover, the tastes of the nobles are different, and there is also a large market for male elves......

Therefore, there were countless slave catchers near the Changhe Forest, but most of them left their lives in the forest forever.
