From Risa Dilan, Leon had learned the whole picture of the Noldor elves.

There are currently four groups of Noldor Elves, Aino, Finaffin, Fenway, and the "Dalyan" tribe, which is not yet a formal family.

Among them, the most well-known family leaders are Yin Silandil and Aldalyan, who often lead the army.

But neither of these two Noldor Lords is actually an Elven King.

Three hundred years ago, humans invaded, and although the elves managed to defeat the human army, the four major families suffered heavy losses.

Yin Silandil's father was seriously injured and disabled, and then retired, Yin Silandil became the head of the Aino family, but he has not been crowned for 300 years, and has always been "His Highness".

And the "Dalyan tribe" of Ardarian is actually not a family, because Ardarian is actually a warlord.

He was a warrior of the Fenway family.

In the war with humans, Aldalian saved his family by repelling powerful enemies with unparalleled bowing skills, becoming the best Twilight Knight in these centuries, once serving as the leading commander of the counterattack against the human army, and was also awarded the treasure of the Noldor Elves "Bow of the End".

The bow was originally in the hands of the Elven King Fergusaner, but the Elven King had no heirs, and he originally regarded Aldarion as the heir of the Fenway family.

But in the process of fighting back against the human army, this powerful warrior gradually becomes an extreme racist, extremely hostile to the humans of the Pander continent.

This is understandable, given that many of his family members and comrades died in the wars of those years.

In Ardarian's eyes, the humans had encroached on the land that belonged to the Noldor elves, slaughtering his people, and some lords had even imprisoned the Noldor Ranger in the Tower and tortured her day and night.

Therefore, he constantly sent his patrols to patrol around the Long River Forest, killing humans if they encountered them, and any show of mercy for humans would be regarded as a coward.

However, this behavior is not a good thing for the entire Noldor community, and Ardalian continues to take the initiative to attack human civilians, which not only deepens the hatred between Noldor and humans, but also causes the Noldor to lose more people in the battle.

What's more, war and hatred continue to deepen, and Noldor, locked in the forest, will not be able to communicate with the human world in any way - no trade, no new knowledge, and no understanding of the changes in the outside world.

As a result, the elven kings of the three major families decided to take back the power of the Ardalyan army after negotiation.

Aldalian was not convinced by this result, and because he was the most powerful warrior among the Noldor elves, he had a strong appeal, so he took with him a large number of warriors who were willing to follow him - people from all three families, and then these people formed a new clan "Dalyan" on their own.

But fortunately, Ardalian did not start any civil war, and his arrows were never aimed at the Noldor Elve, and he was still protecting the entire race, but in his own way.

He is only bent on revenge on humanity, or sitting back and watching the struggle between humans, hoping that one day humanity will be weakened by infighting, and Noldor will have the opportunity to rule the Pander continent.

The three elven kings were also unwilling to lose their clansmen due to internal strife, and Ardarian did have outstanding merits, so they chose to acquiesce in this and carved out a territory for Ardarian.

The Aino family, led by Yin Silandil, has always been the clan that inherits knowledge in the Noldor, and their main concern is the acquisition and protection of all kinds of knowledge.

As for the Fenway family, the elven king Fergus An'er has concentrated on cultivating elven horses and manufacturing various weapons and equipment in the past three hundred years, and basically no longer appears in front of people.

As for the Finarfins, the Elven King Keller von Yin'er is an artist and scholar who cares most about the art and culture passed down by the Noldor and has never been involved in war.

Knowledge, technology, and art are the inheritances of the original three families.

The clan founded by Ardalian had no such lineage, so his realm was only considered a warlord clan by the Noldors.

But the Noldor is still quite united internally, and there has been no civil war between the four ethnic groups.

In fact, the Fenway family is more dangerous now, and the elven king Fergus An'er has no heirs, and the bloodline is about to be cut off.

Aldalian also took the largest number of people from the Fenway family, which caused the Fenway family to become extremely small, and it is said that there are only 800 people now.

This weak family, but mastered the Elven horse and equipment forging technology of Noldor, and the Elven King also disagreed with the concept of a warlord like Ardarian, so it was said that it was easy to have accidents.

But in fact, nothing vicious has happened in the past three hundred years, on the contrary, Aldalian will deliberately protect the Fenway family.

Similarly, if Ardarian's clan needs horses and equipment, the Fenway family will fully support them - although there are philosophical conflicts between the two sides, the relationship is still there, and Ardarian is not considered a traitor.

However, the most powerful Noldor warrior in centuries, after suffering his first defeat in his life, inadvertently brought the greatest danger to the Fenway family.

The territory of the Fenway family is actually in the mountains and dense forests two hundred miles east of White Deer Castle.

Each Noldor tribe has its own territory, but it doesn't make the boundaries so clear.

Today, forests are to Noldor what arable land is to humans.

Because most of the Noldor elves are vegetarians, the fruits and nuts of the forest are their staple food.

Of course, this is not to say that they don't eat meat or pasta, mainly because the forest is really not suitable for cooking on a fire......

Therefore, the Noldor elves rarely kill the animals in the forest for meat, but they still have hunters who specialize in shooting birds and beasts.

The food chain in the Noldor Forest is not very complete, there are not too many beasts, and the top of the food chain here is originally bears, timberwolves, and goshawks.

However, due to the close proximity of the Gatu steppe to the north of the forest, the Gatu people were particularly fond of making ornaments and arrowheads from wolf fangs, which caused the wolf population to gradually decrease.

Goshawks are semi-migratory birds, and they fly south to spend the winter in the cold months, but the Bacchus people in the south like to make headdresses out of eagle feathers, and like to capture goshawks and raise them as falcons - the Bacchus even use falcons for their military flags, but their love of eagles has directly led to a sharp decline in the number of goshawks.

In the eastern Misty Mountains, there are many wild people, and the wild people of the Misty Mountains are very fond of hunting bears, and sometimes go into the forest to hunt......

As a result, the balance of living things has been disrupted, natural predators have decreased, and vegetarian animals have become more rampant.

Therefore, the Noldor elves will organize young people to shoot those too many birds and beasts, or the forest will be eaten up by the fast-breeding vegetarian animals sooner or later.

This is also a way for the Noldor elves to grow, and their bows and arrows are also trained in such an environment.

Now the lord is in the forest, and his eyes are full of amazement as he sees many animal carcasses uncleaned.

Risadiran led the way, and in this primeval forest only he could fully grasp the direction.

"Risa Dilan, did your people shoot these animals? Even if you don't eat meat, why don't you peel off the skin?"

When he saw the relatively fresh wild badger corpse lying under the tree, Li Ang finally couldn't help but ask.

"Because there's too much leather...... We can't trade with humans, so we don't have to bother with them, so we might as well let them return to the earth......

Risadilan glanced back and shook his head, "Besides, we don't like to use fur, we can smell the smell of fur even after nitrate."

"I thought it was because the Noldor elves love animals......

Anson, who accompanied him, seemed a little disappointed.

"Ha, a race that is always in danger of extinction is always thinking about survival. The fishy smell of the fur will attract the beasts and bring danger to the people......

Risa Dilan explained.

"But with Noldor's skills, he should not be afraid of the beast......

Anson still didn't understand.

"Because the number of beasts in this forest is too small, we don't want to kill them. When I was a child, I shot a lot of animals, all according to the instructions of my elders, and there were standards for which animals to kill when and how many they wanted. And it's all for the survival of our people in the forest, and to ensure that the balance between species can keep the forest alive for a long time, so that our people can get enough food, which is no different from human planting and weeding."

Risa Dilan is in a much better mood and talks a lot more now.

"I see...... What about this? What's going on with this?"

Anson pointed to a dead bear cub in front of him.

The lord and Risa Dilan frowned and walked over quickly.

It was a little bear, certainly no more than a year old, lying under a large tree with two arrow holes in its chest.

"This is the work of the Gatu!"

"Prepare for battle!"

The Noldor will not shoot bear cubs, and like Risardiran, most Noldor elves are taught the importance of the ecological balance of the forest from an early age.

Bears are about to become protected animals in the eyes of the Noldor Elves, and the Elves will not actively harm them unless they actively attack the Noldor.

But the bear cub obviously does not have the ability to attack Noldor, and now that the bear cub has been shot, it naturally means that the Gatu who have invaded the forest from the steppe are not far away.

……

At the same time, the town of Changhe has become a chaotic battle.

Lai Sili is rushing to White Deer Fort to report the news.

Because two days ago, Godric's troops had fought a big battle with Duke Alma's forces in Long River.

It was a civil war in the truest sense of the word.

It all started with Godric chasing down the Red Brotherhood.

Around the same time that the lord captured Levius again, Godric and Charles' forces followed the fleeing members of the Red Brotherhood and pursued them all the way to the village of Payne, southeast of Lion Lake City.

Subsequently, they discovered the trail of the Horn Summoning Rangers.

There are more than 400 members of the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment, most of whom are Ralph's Rangers.

The presence of the Rangers in this position was obviously very strange, and Godric and Charles could certainly sense that something was wrong.

Moreover, the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment immediately began to intercept and kill the bandits after seeing the bandits fleeing for their lives.

This caught Godric off guard, as he had planned to chase down the Red Brotherhood members all the way to the mastermind, or at least capture the leader of the bandits.

Godric didn't plan to kill the bandits, and even if he did, he would have to capture at least a few live leaders.

Of course, at present, these bandits have run seven or eight hundred miles to Payne Village, which is only more than 100 miles away from Lion Lake City, which is already very revealing.

However, Godric was thinking of catching them alive - and now the Rangers were completely undead intercepting the bandits, and it felt like they were killing them!

Godric then wanted to stop this, and sent a number of soldiers to send orders for the rangers to stop the attack and capture the prisoners.

But unexpectedly, the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment completely ignored his orders.

The native knights of Changhe Town actually ignored the orders of the military chief of the eastern region, and it was obvious that there was something wrong with this ranger.

So Godric with an army of more than a thousand men intended to surround these rangers.

But what's even more strange is that the Rangers didn't leave after killing the bandits, but waited where they were, and even laid down their weapons and surrendered directly, just letting Godric surround them.

Later, Godric found Ralph, who was seriously wounded, in the village of Payne.

Because Raphael was coerced by Duke Alma, Ralph could only obey Alma's command, and led the rangers to help Alma form a military deterrent, retake Lion Lake City, and follow Alma to prepare to go to Fort Brave.

But he didn't expect that Duke Alma's real target was not Yongdun Castle, but Changhe Town!

Duke Alma originally brought out more than half of the army of Lion Lake City, plus the trumpet-summoning ranger regiment, a full force of 2,500 troops, and led the army to the west, saying that it was to rescue the Shield Fortress.

But as soon as they reached the north of Payne Village, another scout came to report that "Baron Leon had committed treason and rebellion in Changhe Town" - at that time, the news of Leon's treason was indeed spreading.

As a result, the Ranger Regiment was divided into two factions.

Half of the people, including Ralph, thought that Baron Leon would not do this, which must be fake news.

The other half felt that whether it was fake news or not, they should return to Changhe Town, go back to Changhe Town first, and make sure that their hometown is okay before going to rescue Yongdun Fort.

So Duke Alma took the other half of the rangers, plus his own troops, and more than 2,000 troops to Long River, and asked Ralph to lead the rangers to "support Fort Brave".

But in reality, he gave Ralph the task of killing all the Red Brotherhood members he could see along the way, and as soon as that was done, he would release Raphael.

Ralph's only son was in Alma's hands, and he was of course ostensibly obedient to the arrangement - but the last time Alma was stationed in Long River, he already knew what Alma was going to do.

So, after Alma leaves, Ralph tells the Ranger members about the situation he faces.

After all, Ralph had been a Knight Captain for twenty years with the Horn Summoning Rangers, and the Rangers trusted him and knew that he never lied.

Whether or not Long River would eventually be controlled by Alma or Leon, it would be an internal struggle between the lords of the kingdom, and the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment would not be interested in participating.

Anyway, no lord who controls the town of Long River will not harm the civilians, as long as the hometown is not plagued by the Cato or bandits.

But if Raphael is rescued, at least Ralph will not be controlled, and Lion Lake City is nearby, so there will be no delay.

So the Rangers decided to save people first.

Ralph and the Ranger believe that Raphael must be locked up in Lion Lake.

As a result, the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment intends to try to send an elite team to infiltrate the city and rescue Raphael.

But Ralph failed.

Although most of the garrison of Lion Lake City was taken away, the First Banner Guard was always in the city, and the flag bearer, Grandlon, was not an easy person to deal with.

Most importantly, Raphael is not in the Lion Lake City prison.

Ralph and Granlon's battle was defeated, and the elite squad of the Horn Summoning Ranger Regiment was almost lost, and Ralph was seriously wounded and managed to escape from the city.

Ralph was barely able to move after being seriously injured, and he had sent the Ranger to Fort Shield and leave him and Raphael alone.

But the Ranger was still angry with him, and not only did they not abandon him, but they also intercepted and killed all the Red Brotherhood members they saw according to Alma's request to him—they were originally sent to suppress the bandits, and to be honest, Alma did not lie to them.

Knowing all the circumstances, Godric had no choice but to temporarily add the Ranger to the army and rush to Long River.

He was more worried about Long River than Ralph - most of the Long River garrison was currently in his ranks, and there were only two or three hundred defenders in the city.

When he arrived in the town of Long River, the golden lion banner was still hanging on the city, and the city was quite peaceful, and Godric had thought that Alma had not succeeded.

But just as he was leading his troops into the city, a large net fell from the sky.

It was a large fishing net, and both Changhe Town and Shihu City were backed by the lake and the sea, and there were many fishing nets - and Shihu City was actually backed by a large inland sea, and fishermen used this net to catch big fish for a long time.

Godric was very skilled, but no matter how good he was, there was really nothing he could do about this kind of net, and he was captured.

It was none other than the Lion Lake City troops, Alma's men, who attacked him.

At the moment when the net fell, the gate of Changhe Town was also closed halfway through the troops!

The troops on both sides fought a brutal battle in the town of Long River, but with some calculations or not, Godric's troops were certainly no match, and it didn't take long for the town to be bloody.

However, Charles saw the opportunity quickly, he was already walking behind, and when he saw the city gate closed, he immediately ran out with the red arrow longbowmen around him, and really let him run out.

But then the forces of Lake Lion began to pursue Charles all the way, and deliberately prevented him from running southeast—it was clear that the enemy knew about his relationship with Leon.

Charles could not run in the direction of Mai Xiangling, and seeing that there were only about 200 brothers following him, and the enemy troops chasing him were at least thousand, and they could not fight, so he simply let all the brothers run separately.

He himself ran west, while most of the Red Arrow longbowmen headed northeast to their hometown of Flaicher.

Charles was also a heroic lure to the enemy, and the troops of Lion Lake City chased Charles all the way, basically ignoring the fleeing soldiers.

However, Charles was not overtaken, and fled into the village of Kwyn, the home of the Countess, who did shelter him and hid him in the cellar.
