Chapter 7 The Escaped Elf Slave Girl

Early the next morning.

"Who? Stop!"

The fog was thick and before dawn, Lei Luo was woken up by a roar and scolding in the tent.

He hurriedly climbed out of the tent, only to see the middle-aged knight leader holding a long sword, faintly confronting a tall, weakened figure in the fog.

Others climbed out of the tent and stood together.

With the help of the remaining firelight, everyone got closer. When they saw the specific appearance of this person, they all said in shock: "Elf?"

With her tall figure, graceful figure, and pointed ears, this is indeed a forest elf, and she seems to be just a young elf girl.

Elves live in thorny forests outside the human kingdom. Like dwarves, they often appear in large human city-states. They are a foreign race that has good relations with humans. Ordinary people have heard of them even if they have never seen them.

In more remote places on the continent far away from humans, there are many other alien civilizations, and there are even many races that humans have never heard of.

The church's crusaders went on many expeditions to a terrifying alien region called the Land of Night, to crusade against a heretical civilization called the Blood Era, and to destroy the evil heretic temple there.

The middle-aged knight leader retracted his sword and explained to the people around him: "The fog is thick, and this elf came running in a hurry just now. I thought it was some kind of wild beast."

Huchi, wheeze.

As the elf girl gasped, Lei Luo looked through the hazy mist and looked at it carefully.

Large areas of tender white skin are exposed, with only some key parts covered by leaves. Her tall and voluptuous body is enough to make any woman jealous. It is the morning of early spring, and the elf girl is shivering in the cold, panting tiredly.

The elf girl looked back from time to time, as if she was afraid of what was behind her, like a helpless and pitiful lamb, arousing pity.

This was the first time that Lei Luo saw the opposite sex exposed in front of him. His cheeks immediately turned red and he didn't dare to look again.

The knight leader shouted to the elf girl: "We are travelers heading to St. Grant's Castle. Your running and gasping sound just now made me mistake it for a wild beast. You can pass by."

The elf girl didn't seem to understand human language, she just stood there panting and didn't respond.

As if afraid of the human knights in front of her, the elf girl did not dare to move forward. Her anxious face was filled with anxious tears of prayer.

"What's up with her?"

Aoun asked the knight leader.

The knight leader frowned and said: "An elf who doesn't understand human language is dressed so scantily in human territory. It seems... this must be an elf slave girl who is on the run! Although the human principalities have already signed contracts with the elf ministries, all arrests are strictly prohibited. The behavior of elf slaves, but because of the outstanding beauty of these elves, there are still some corrupt nobles who secretly raise elf slave girls, and many dark mercenaries take risks for profit. This is generally how the half-elves who are spurned by humans and elves come to be."

As the knight leader was talking, several dogs barked in the fog in the distant forest.

"Just ahead, don't let her get away!"

When the elf girl heard the footsteps chasing after her, her face became even more frightened. However, because she was afraid of the tall and strong human knights in front of her, she did not dare to move forward. She just stood there and sobbed, looking at everyone pleadingly. .

Lei Luo secretly looked at the reactions of several people.

The two young knights swallowed unconsciously. They first expressed their surprise at seeing the elf for the first time. Their eyes wandered over the graceful figure of the elf girl. They instinctively coveted the elf girl's beauty, and then they seemed to notice their own... Losing his composure, he quickly turned his face to cover up his shame.

The middle-aged knight leader looked like he was thinking calmly, his eyes were deep and extremely calm.

The female knight showed great sympathy. After looking at the silent middle-aged knight leader, she looked at Ornn behind her.

"Damn fallen borer!"

Aoun's voice almost came out from between his teeth. He looked angry and hateful. He seemed to be ashamed of what happened in front of him. He said to the knight leader: "We must protect this elf and maintain the reputation of the Principality of Gran." , Make sure she returns home safely!”

"yes!"

The knight leader looked at Aoun, nodded solemnly, put on his helmet again, looked behind the elf solemnly with his eyes, stood ready, and roared in a low voice: "Draw the sword!"

The female knight breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly put on the metal helmet, revealing only a pair of cold eyes that were ready for battle.

The two young knights took a deep breath, as if they were ashamed of their instinctive evil thoughts at that moment. Their cheeks were red with shame after the captain's low roar, and their eyes were full of blood, covering up complex emotions such as shame and nervousness.

Ouch!

Following the chaotic footsteps deep in the mist, several tall figures gradually appeared. After seeing the figure of the elf girl stopped in the mist in front of them, a rough voice of joy came.

"Found it, right in front!"

Beside Aoun, Lei Luo became nervous, trying his best to act normal and not showing shameful cowardice.

Aoun on the side swallowed secretly.

After seeing that there were only four pursuers walking out of the fog, Aoun breathed a sigh of relief and touched the gemstone ring on his right hand. The gemstone shone slightly red and calmed down.

"stop!"

The middle-aged knight leader stood at the front of the crowd and shouted loudly, roaring: "We are the glorious knights of the Ridge Family, why are you chasing this elf?"

The roar of the knight leader immediately made the four people in the fog tense up. They stopped and stared at each other from dozens of meters apart.

After seeing that there were only six people on the opposite side, including two children, the four people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, we are the Black Wolf mercenary group. We received the mission from the mercenary hall and are responsible for capturing this elf assassin who committed a murder in St. Gran Castle. We will be punished by the Sheriff. If you cover her up, you will be an accomplice. Kill without mercy! If you don’t want to die, get out of my way!”

The mercenary captain who spoke was a bald man in his thirties, with earrings on his ears and a black fur coat. He was 1.9 meters tall and carrying a cold-light battle ax. Just standing there, he looked like A wall is very oppressive, as if it is a beast that may pounce at any time.

The other three members of the mercenary team also looked like vicious men with knives licking blood. One of them was holding a bloody wolf-head flag.

Among them was a female archer in her twenties, bending her bow under the full moon, with an arrow in her right hand, pointing here, as if she would shoot out an arrow that would bring death at any time. Next to the female archer stood a giant black wolf. He was half a man tall, and wore a thorn-like metal decoration on his neck. His fangs were exposed and his eyes were ferocious.

"Warcraft?"

After Aoun saw the black hyena, he observed it carefully. After confirming it for a while, he shook his head and said: "It should have some blood from the Black Flame Wolf. Uncle Basel, be careful."

"knew!"

The middle-aged knight leader responded to Ornn in a low voice, laughed at the Black Wolf mercenary group and said: "Hahahaha, since you received the mission from the mercenary hall, then take out the mission contract! Humph, do you think we don't You know? A bunch of people who earn dirty gold coins. If you don’t quit, you will use your blood to defend the glory of the Ridge Family!”

The scene was extremely tense and the battle was about to break out.

The elf girl in the middle of the confrontation seemed to know the middle-aged knight's good intentions and ran directly towards this side.

The female knight whispered: "Master, don't you know Elvish?"

"I am a scholar who studies the laws of nature. I study the cornerstones of mathematics and deduce the laws of nature. Elvish is a subject for those who study the mysteries of evolution. How could I do this!"

Aoun said angrily: "No matter what, save him first. It won't cost much to issue an escort mission at the Mercenary Hall of St. Granburg!"

the other side.

The leader of the Black Demon Wolf mercenary group, seeing the prey he was about to capture running away, suddenly let out a low roar from his throat, like an awakened monster, just when this extremely oppressive mercenary leader was about to launch a charge. , suddenly, the female archer holding the black hound behind him exclaimed: "Magician!"

Several members of the Black Demon Wolf Mercenary Group were shocked.

Looking from a distance, I saw behind the four knights, the half-grown boy's palm actually lit up a ball of flame, so dazzling in the night sky that had not yet fully dawned. He was looking here with bright eyes, about to launch at any time. Unknown magic!

Although the other party looked obviously nervous, the noble magician was definitely not something that this third-rate low-level mercenary group could come into contact with at will. After discovering Ornn's identity as a magician, they were even more nervous than Ornn. !

Countless mercenaries have used their bloody experience to tell the younger generations that if a mercenary group wants to develop for a long time and grow stronger, it must hire a magician as the brain of the team. A mercenary group without a magician can never compete with a mercenary group with a magician. When there is a conflict between mercenary groups, the first target must be the opponent's magician if there is a forced conflict!

"Hey, Lei Luo, you should pretend too!"

Aoun's trembling voice almost came from between his teeth, and he was extremely nervous.

Lei Luo responded hurriedly: "Oh!"

Lei Luo casually picked up Aoun's notebook and flipped through it slowly, looking forward to it seriously, as if he was about to activate powerful magic at any time. In fact, his palms were already sweaty and his legs were a little weak.

Lei Luo has never really experienced this kind of real swordsmanship.

"what to do?"

Behind the leader of the Black Demon Wolf Mercenary Group, another scarred man was holding a two-handed sword and asked hesitantly.

In the hearts of mercenaries, magicians have an extremely high status. High-level mercenary groups will definitely hire a magician as a core member of the team with extremely favorable conditions, because in addition to their mysterious magical power, the most important thing about magicians is their His profound knowledge and understanding of the mysterious phenomena of nature can save the entire mercenary group in many crises!

"withdraw!"

He glanced fiercely at the old knight leader, and looked deeply at the magician who was full of unknown mystery. The leader of the Black Wolf Mercenary Group stopped abruptly at the moment before the explosion, and turned around and left with the three of them without hesitation. Gone, disappeared into the mist.
