371. Companions and Watchers
Roy stood beside a dark cyan rock in the cavern and asked a few Darkmoon Elves who walked by:
"Now is there such an opportunity for you to look at the blue sky outside the mine and breathe in the cold wind blowing from the northern part of the Pagisto Plateau, although it is only for a few days, I wonder if you are willing to accept it?"
The Darkmoon Elves glanced at each other, and one of them took the initiative to ask:
"All of us?"
Roy stretched out the ten fingers of his two hands and said to these Darkmoon Elves, "I only need ten of the best Darkmoon Elf warriors. ”
The Darkmoon Elf had apparently become the spokesperson for all the Darkmoon Elves, and he looked to the left and right to see that everyone was eager to learn more, so he asked, "...... Can we find out...... What kind of tasks are performed? ”
Roy didn't hide it, and said directly: "This time, I plan to take ten Dark Moon Elf warriors to the underground of the first mine to do an investigation. ”
The Dark Moon Elf was a little puzzled, tilted his head and asked, "That's all it takes?" ”
He meant another thing: 'Do you need to call us if you do only these things?' ’
"That's true, there is also a group of Dark Moon Elf warriors underground in the First Mine, but so far, I have not established contact with them and gained their trust." Roy spread his hands and said openly.
The Dark Moon Elves made eye contact again, but did not speak.
At this time, more Dark Moon Elves gathered here, and everyone seemed to know that Roy was coming......
After a slight pause, the Dark Moon Elf continued to ask Roy, "Lord Roy, do you want us to help you convince the Dark Moon Elf in the First Mine?" ”
Roy smiled faintly, waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, you don't need to do this, I invited you to the First Mine, just to ask you to help me deal with the conflict that suddenly broke out underground, just to find a temporary mercenary group, so I need the best fighters among you." ”
Seeing that these Dark Moon Elves were visibly moved, he continued:
"But before you go out, you need to sign a deed, and I will take you out of the mine, and of course I will bring you back, unless you can prove that your sentence has expired before you can be freed. Of course, our contract is limited to this mission. ”
Hearing Roy's request, the Dark Moon Elf was somewhat convinced that what Roy said was true.
"There's no problem with that."
The leading Darkmoon Elf agreed, but unfortunately Roy forgot his name.
To say that these Dark Moon Elves have really changed a lot since they were cleaned up by Roy in the mines.
Everyone began to discuss in a low voice, and Roy said loudly again:
"Also...... I want to announce one thing, I have already made contact with my friends in Anohaus City, and it will not be long before I can confirm your identity and sentence, of course, this requires that the personal information you give me is true, and when the time comes, if any of the Dark Moon Elves present have completed their sentences, I promise...... Freedom for you. ”
When the Dark Moon Elves heard Roy officially announce this, they hurriedly shouted to Roy:
"Lord Roy, you must count when you speak!"
The Dark Moon Elf looked excited.
At this time, more Dark Moon Elves surrounded him......
Roy raised his right hand, palmed forward, and solemnly said to the group of Dark Moon Elves:
"During my tenure as the owner of the second mine, I would definitely be the talker. But you're also going to have to settle in the mines, and I'm going to make the most of your current living conditions, I promise! ”
When the Dark Moon Elves heard Roy's promise, they became excited, and everyone was talking about following Roy to the First Mine, and some of the Dark Moon Elf warriors had expressed their willingness to follow Roy to the First Mine.
"So many elves want to follow you out to have a look, and it's also a problem to choose who to go out, otherwise let's all vote for it!" The leading Dark Moon Elf said to everyone.
The other Darkmoon Elves agreed.
Roy was actually very curious about how these Dark Moon Elves were elected, he stood aside and watched the Dark Moon Elves continue to gather, and the number of Dark Moon Elves waiting for them is almost the same, and this election has officially begun.
Whatever the Dark Moon Elves do, they have to feel a little ritualistic.
The leading Darkmoon Elf beckoned to everyone, and the Darkmoon Elf warriors who were willing to go out on this mission stood together, and the other Darkmoon Elves stood opposite.
Roy counted carefully, and there were more than fifty Darkmoon Elves who were willing to follow Roy Dao to take a look outside the mine, accounting for almost half of the total number of Darkmoon Elves under the mine.
Only the Dark Moon Elves who have decided not to participate in this mission will have the right to vote.
There is no need to vote for the trouble, everyone only needs to shout the names of the ten Dark Moon Elf warriors in turn, and only the Dark Moon Elves with the highest voice can stand up.
Looks fair...... Roy thought to himself.
More than a hundred Darkmoon Elves were crammed into a mine, and even the air was a little muddy.
Roy, as a bystander, just stood quietly at the entrance of the cave.
The voting Dark Moon Elves whispered about who to recommend.
The leader of the Dark Moon Spirit stepped out of the crowd again.
He stood in the middle of the cave and said loudly to everyone:
"I'll start by name, it was he who led us to victory over the gray rats, and it was he who drove them into the narrow hole they had dug themselves...... Timothy! ”
A well-proportioned Darkmoon Elf stepped out of the Darkmoon Elves with a faint smile......
The Dark Moon Elves on the opposite side immediately shouted:
"Timothy ......"
"Timothy ......"
"Timothy is the most qualified......"
Almost all of the Dark Moon Elves are shouting Timothy's name.
It can be seen that this warrior named Timothy Dark Moon Elf has a high prestige in everyone's minds.
The leading Darkmoon Elf shouted again:
"There's another name...... I have to say that he was a brilliant assassin when he was in the Forest of Eternal Night, and it was he who gave us a new understanding of professional assassination, and he taught us the real art of assassination, and he was ...... Tennison. ”
This time, the Dark Moon Elves hesitated for a moment, and then everyone shouted the name together:
"Tennison!"
Sure enough, a questioning voice immediately appeared among the Dark Moon Elves:
"Will this Tennison come back after he goes out?"
Someone even shouted, "Don't get us in trouble, Tennison, we've only been a few days away." ”
Of course, Tennison also had many supporters, and they all said:
"Guys, don't underestimate people, okay?"
Anyway, the cheers outweighed the boos, and obviously this Tennison was also a great guy, but also a not very restful guy, and Roy kind of remembered his name.
As the names of the Dark Moon Elves were shouted one by one, some of the names of the Dark Moon Elves were cheered by everyone, and some of the names of the Dark Moon Elves were booed.
In short, several more Darkmoon Elf warriors were then elected, Fielding, Quinnil, Woodrow, Bessemae...... The name behind Roy is a little hard to remember.
Ten Darkmoon Elf warriors were soon assembled, and all of them looked excited, sitting or standing around Roy.
Roy took the initiative to clap his hands and said to the ten Dark Moon Elf warriors, "You are all elected by everyone, wait a minute, you will walk out of the mine with me!" ”
As soon as Roy said this, the surrounding Dark Moon Elves also fell silent:
"Let me start with the request, during the mission, I need you to be completely under my command, no one else can flee without permission, once I find anyone fleeing the team without permission, I will do everything I can to capture you back, and I will no longer trust any of you, and there will be no more such actions in the future."
No matter what the ten Darkmoon Elves thought in their hearts, they all raised their hands and swore: "We hereby promise the Darkmoon Goddess that we will never run away from the team and will never turn our backs on our partners." ”
Roy nodded, brushing over the faces of the Darkmoon Elves again.
Then he left the mine with the ten Darkmoon Elf warriors.
……
This may be the first time the Darkmoon Elves have seen sunlight outside since entering the mines......
At Roy's behest, the ten Darkmoon Elf warriors were blindfolded, and Roy led them to the dining room, where they sat on the benches and arranged some more breadfruit and lemon tea.
They sat in the dining room and filled their bellies with breadfruit as they slowly adjusted to the intense light outside the mine.
The Dark Moon Elves almost all squinted, and they looked at the restaurant curiously, even stroking the smooth and clean table in front of them with their hands.
When the man brought the cut breadfruit and placed the delicate ceramic plate in front of them, the eyes of the Darkmoon Elves were full of excitement.
They have been away from the elven society for too long, and the hard days in the well have even made them forget their original lives.
Now I finally have a little memory, first sentenced, then imprisoned, then sold as a mining slave, and after decades of dark hell life, it is really not easy to survive......
Right now...... Suddenly, a half-elf boy broke into the well, and they felt a little bit of life again, and the heart that had long been dry seemed to come alive again.
In fact, the reason and desire in their hearts at the moment have been constantly fighting, the reason wants to grasp these hard-won things, but the desire wants to break free from all shackles and find an opportunity to become a free bird.
However, all the Dark Moon Elves were trying their best to suppress the excitement in their hearts.
Gulping down the breadfruit on the plate, he poured the lemon tea into his stomach in one gulp, and then looked at his companion across from him in a daze.
The elves who can understand what is going on in their hearts right now...... It is estimated that there is only the companion on the other side.
Be both a companion and a watcher......
