Volume 3 Knight Athletic Chapter 165 Rampage
“…… What should I do? ”
Emile turned to Ophelia for help, and he didn't know whether to listen to Cosette or not, and even if he wanted to help, he didn't know how to treat the other party's injuries.
Ophelia spread her hands, saying that there was nothing she could do.
"Your Highness's physique is special, and we ordinary elves must have no choice but to do what His Highness said."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she noticed behind Emir, and at the same time showed a nervous look, Emir did not know why, and also looked back, only to be startled by the sight in front of her.
"Uh, Your Highness Cosette, have you finally recovered?"
Cosette stood up from the ground, and a large number of slender and curly horns suddenly appeared above her head, and at the same time she lowered her head slightly, and her pupils emitted a green light.
"Emir, get out of the way." Ophelia sensed that something was wrong and quickly pulled the emir away.
In the next moment, with a loud bang, a large hole appeared where he had been standing, and Cosette was holding out his hand to him, a dazzling white light flashing in his palm.
The floor of the vault was full of solid stones, but under Cosette's attack, the stones were destroyed in an instant, and there was not even any slag left.
Emir couldn't help but tremble slightly, if Ophelia hadn't stopped him in time, he would have ended up like those stones.
"Your Highness Cosette, what's wrong with you?"
"Leave her alone, we'd better stay away." Ophelia continued to pull him back.
Sure enough, Cosette's movements became unusually fast, and as soon as the Emir left on his front foot, the next attack struck.
By now, the Emir understood that she had lost her mind, and looked at her wrist still bleeding, and although she was a little worried, her own life was now more important.
So, in order to avoid the terrifying attack, the emir summoned Lilith and flew into the air.
Luckily, Cosette didn't spot any targets in the air, so she could only attack everything around her indiscriminately, and in a few moments, the entire Vault was in ruins.
Lilith took the opportunity to fly out of the gap in the vault, and just as it was dawn, Emile and Ophelia stayed above the town, watching the entrance to the vault warily.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's an atavistic phenomenon of the elves." Ophelia said with a frown.
"Atavism?" It was the first time the emir had heard of such a thing.
"Well, I once heard the elf king say, it is said that thousands of years ago, the elves were basically an existence that resembled elk, but they had wisdom beyond humans, and their own language, and the most obvious feature was the horns on their heads, which can reflect the strength of their magic, in addition, the magic of female elves is naturally stronger than that of male elves of the same age, so their horns are thin and long, but this is not a good thing, the lifespan of elves is almost unlimited, and their magic level will continue to grow stronger with age, The horns on the head will naturally get longer and longer, but the growth trend of the horns is not always straight, if the luck is too bad, the horns are likely to pierce the head, thus causing fatal damage, and the elves are also very aware of this, so they have been looking for a solution, until later an elf king researched the magic of transformation, which made all the elves become humanoid, and so on, they finally got used to the human form, which is the form we see now. ”
"I see," the emir nodded, "I see, so every elf has an atavistic phenomenon, so how do they solve it?" ”
"No," Ophelia dismissed his conjecture, and continued, "For thousands of years, the elves have long been accustomed to human form, and as a result, their descendants have lost the ability to transform into their original form, and not long after, the elves experienced a catastrophe of extermination, when almost all the adult elves died, except for the current elven king and a few powerful elves, and because of this, only they can change into their original form among the existing elves, except that His Royal Highness Cosette is an exceptionAs a new generation of elves, she has rare atavistic abilities, and of course, this matter has always bothered her, although other elves believe that it is a symbol of the chosen one. ”
"Well......," said the emile, pondering, and after a moment he spoke again, "then, is there no way to solve the problem of Cosette's rampage?" ”
"Well, I don't know." Ophelia sighed, she was completely fine at this time, after all, she was just a simple-minded knight.
"Since Cosette will follow us, then she must have a way, didn't the Elf King tell you how she usually solved the atavistic phenomenon?"
"No," Ophelia shook her head, "but, hearing you say that, I think Your Highness is indeed prepared, and we may be able to find a solution in her." ”
"Well, so we're going to have to control her next." The emir nodded.
It wasn't long before Cosette emerged from the shelter, unleashing her terrifying magic that reduced the town's houses to ruins.
The emir didn't have to worry about the other party attacking, but when he saw that there were so many monsters in the town, he immediately thought of a way.
"There's a way."
"What's the solution?" Ophelia asked.
"Hehe, you'll find out later." The emir smiled mysteriously.
Ophelia was relieved to see him like this, for she knew that the Emir would be able to solve the dilemma in front of her.
Immediately afterward, Emile causes Lilith to fall to the ground, and then deliberately appears in front of Cosette.
Cosette had just destroyed a large building, and suddenly turned back in alarm, sensing traces of magic on the Emil and the others.
"Die...... Give me all the death! Cosette rushed over like crazy.
Only then did the emir see her clearly, and saw that she had a hideous face, a fierce eye, and her hair was disheveled, and she seemed to be in great pain, but the most terrible thing was that the horns on her head were growing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the sharp horns would approach her head from time to time, but in the end they only brushed over.
The emir knew that if she didn't find a way to stop it, sooner or later she would be pierced in the head by horns.
So, he continued to hurry up to implement his plan, and after getting Cosette's attention, he hurriedly lifted Lilith into the air, but it was only five or six meters above the ground.
Cosette pursued him, and a large number of craters appeared at the Emir's feet, until he came to the monsters near the city gates.
The monsters were looking for their target when Cosette struck, and they were so excited that they pounced like a tide, and Lilith took the opportunity to rise into the air and flee the battlefield.
Sure enough, within a minute, Cosette was restrained by a large number of monsters, and no matter how much she struggled, it was to no avail.
"That's the way it is, and it's you, Emir." Ophelia couldn't help but admire.
"Hehe, it's just a little trick of carving insects." The emir smiled humbly.
After that, they slowly descended to a position where the monster was not looking.
With the help of the gradually clearing light on the horizon, Emile took a closer look at Cosette's body, and found a small but delicate kettle.
"In the extremely cold zone of the elven territory, do they really drink water?" The emir asked suddenly.
"Of course not, the water they have there is frozen, and even if there is water, the elves will not drink it, because their daily water has always been the elven spring."
"Really? That's right, that kettle should contain the Elven Spring, and it will definitely solve the problem of atavism. ”
"Try it, I'll go get the kettle." Ophelia offered to offer.
Emir was a little worried that she would be attacked by monsters, but then she remembered that she had dealt with all the monsters in the shelter just now, so she didn't say anything more.
Sure enough, Ophelia slashed down the monster with a few swords, quickly snatched the kettle from Cosette, and jumped back to Lilith with one last step, all in one go, leaving Emir stunned.
"Here, let's see how to feed the Elven Fountain to His Highness Cosette."
Emir took the kettle, opened it and sniffed it, it was indeed similar to the smell of the pool water he had soaked in the illusion before.
He then glanced at Cosette again, and found that the other party was being covered tightly by the monster, and even a little breathless, let alone let her open her mouth.
But he suddenly remembered another thing, when he was soaking in the Elven Spring, he accidentally drank a few sips, and then found that there was a smell of spices in it, and there were some white petals floating on the surface of the water, he once suspected that it was a woman's bath water, and the identity of the other party must be very noble.
Now that he remembered it again, he guessed that the owner of the pool was probably Cosette, that is, he had drunk the elven princess's bath water.
Emile immediately shook his head, trying to get rid of the distractions, he was not disgusted with Cosette, rather, he even had a strange feeling, but it was this feeling that made him feel complicated.
"Emir, what's wrong with you?" Ophelia asked with concern as she saw him stunned.
"Huh? Oh, nothing, maybe we can pour the Elven Fountain directly on His Highness. ”
"Uh, that's it? Is there any basis for this? Ophelia will be skeptical.
"Anyway, try it, as long as you don't finish it, maybe my guess is wrong."
"Oh."
Ophelia nodded, then returned to Cosette, and the monsters noticed her and nearly knocked over the kettle in her hand, but luckily she reacted quickly, dodging away and pouring the Elven Fountain on Cosette's face.
At that moment, Ophelia noticed a sharp horn about to pierce Cosette's head, and she couldn't help but sweat.
It wasn't until the last moment that Cosette, who came into contact with the Elven Spring, instantly returned to normal, her fierce eyes became clear, and the horn stopped, and then quickly retracted, and in a short time, all the horns on her head disappeared.
“…… It really worked, it almost scared me to death. ”
Ophelia breathed a sigh of relief, but the monsters around her pounced again, and this time she slashed them with her sword.
Seeing Cosette's appearance, Emir dared to return to the ground, and he hurriedly ran over to offer condolences.
“…… Well, my head hurts," Cosette frowned, then said, "Did you help me?" Ophelia. ”
"Hehe, you're exalting me too much, you're the emir." Ophelia scratched her head and said, she didn't notice anything was wrong.
"Oh?"
Cosette's gaze stayed on Emile, and in the next moment, the white light in her hand flickered, and a majestic magic power struck Emile.
However, just as he was about to make contact with him, the magic abruptly vanished, and Cosette rushed over and embraced him with open arms.
"Really, didn't you say you weren't allowed to help me? …… Now I owe you a favor...... Alas, anyway, thank you, Emile. ”
The Emile froze, he was in the terror of being attacked by Cosette.
"I say, Your Highness Cosette, you've gone too far this time." Ophelia smiled helplessly.
“…… I'm sorry, Emir, I was just trying to play around with you, but I didn't expect it...... I'm really sorry. Cosette quickly buried her head in her apology, she no longer had her original haughty attitude.
The emir then came to his senses, and he said with a serious expression.
"Okay, I accept the apology, but you have to promise me one thing."
"Oh? What's up? ”
"I haven't figured it out yet, I'll talk about it later."
Cosette leaned into Ophelia's ear and whispered.
"Hey, this guy doesn't want me to make a promise, does he?"
“…… I don't think so," Ophelia shook her head slightly, "he shouldn't have thought of such a good thing with an elm pimple." ”
"Oh, then I'm relieved." Cosette breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you talking about?" Emir couldn't help but ask as he looked at the two of them mysteriously.
"It's okay, it's okay, in short, I promise you, if you have any requests in the future, just mention it, my dignified elf princess will not break her word."
"Well, of course I do, but then again, how are your wounds, Your Highness?" The emir returned to the point.
"Are you talking about that?"
Cosette lifted her wrist, which had been wounded, and she ripped off the bloody strip of cloth, revealing the tender skin that had grown beneath it.
