Chapter 131
"Why didn't you come until now?!"
When the Loren entire group rushed to Zhufenglin, it was a man who came out to "greet" them. Elf war dancers who have long been riddled with scars.
The wound on my left arm was rashly bandaged, and the blood was still oozing; the leather armor on my body was also ragged, and there was an incredibly hideous gap on my shoulder, and the bones underneath were naked. Eye can see that he can tear half of his body apart just a little bit.
"We sent a messenger to spread the news three days ago, why are you only here now?!" The wounded war dancer gasped violently and questioned again, with bloodshot eyes. Staring at Luca: "From the morning star forest to here, just one day is enough!"
"We were attacked on the road." Seeing the other person turned into this look, Luca's tone was pale A lot: "And it's too sudden, it's too late to organize the manpower!"
"What about this guy?!" The one-armed war dancer used his only right hand to straighten up his lance and point to Loren, to death. Staring at the face of the black hair wizard: "He is not an elf, right?"
"Take your lance away, this is a guest from Morningstar Forest, here to help us!" Luca pushed away After looking back at the opponent’s lance, he introduced to Loren: "His name is Kono, the leader of the war dancers in the Wind-Chasing Forest settlement. They are responsible for patrolling the Big Tree Wall."
"I know you are here. I’m honored.” The black hair wizard took the initiative to take a step forward, and calm smiled and bowed to the other party in salute: “If you don’t mind, you can call me Loren.”
“The stubborns of Morning Star Forest will have humans. Guest?" The war dancer named Kono twitched his mouth in disbelief, and then shook the head: "It doesn't matter, since Luca is willing to believe you, then come with me."
Loren and the war dancers who followed Kono went through the outer woods and came to the settlement of Wind-Zhufenglin.
Compared with Morningstar Forest, the settlement here is much smaller-the low cloud crown tree is only similar to the ordinary ancient wood, and the simple wooden fence and Fruit Tree enclose the whole settlement. There are some large and small wooden longhouses scattered around the cloud crown tree. The most exquisite one is under the cloud crown tree.
But that is not what Loren noticed.
The whole settlement is permeated with an atmosphere of sadness and despair, and the breath of death seems to have turned into shadows here. The elves who are all hurt, lying silently under the trees and in the shade can be seen everywhere; the elves passing by are hurried, but they all have a numb expression, and they can't even see whether it is sad or angry;
Every time he walks through a wood house, Loren can clearly smell the strong smell of blood and medicine inside, and even the ulceration of the wound, like rotten flesh.
What kind of bloody battle did the look that were so disheartened and nearly numb?
The thing that makes Loren feel abrupt most apart from this is that this settlement looks really empty. As for the reason, he felt that he might have guessed part of it vaguely.
And Liya and Luca, a group of war dancers, also kept silent. The tragedy in front of them has exceeded their imagination, even to the point where they can't even speak.
"We have waited for you for three days." Kono, who was walking in front, suddenly opened the mouth and said: "The entire Wind Chasing Forest has stuck to the tree wall for three days."
"Sorry, we should have come quickly." Luca opened her mouth weakly: "I..."
"Needless to say." Walked to the long house under the cloud crown tree , Kono, who was holding Lance, reluctantly pushed open the door: "Please come in, all the guests of Wind-Zhufenglin, please forgive us for the improper hospitality."
The one in the middle of the longhouse lobby There was a cauldron on the campfire, and the strong smell of potion permeated the room. Although the smell was enough to choke people to death, the war dancers who walked in were silent-after seeing the tragedy of Zhu Fenglin, no one could blame them for anything.
"What the hell is going on?"
Before sitting down, Liya couldn't help but speak: "Why does ogre suddenly invade, and why does the big tree wall There are cracks, this...this is basically impossible!"
"We also think that it is impossible, but it just happened." Kono, with a numb expression, looked up at her and said, "Do you think that the wind-seeking forest has become What's the reason for this look now?!" The speechless female elf lowered her head and stopped talking.
"Please forgive me, Liya is the first person to know the news. It is inevitable that she will be so excited." Loren slowly opened the mouth and said, his tone as gentle as possible: "We just I want to know what happened and what I should do to withstand this invasion-understanding the reason is very important to this!"
The sincere look of the black hair wizard calmed down a bit of excitement. Coming down, he said with difficulty: "It was roughly four days ago..."
Among the "defense lines" of the entire tree wall, only a small area is free of hills and cliffs, and that place has become Every time ogre invaded, it was the only entrance, and it was also the only line of defense that the elves had to hold on.
The battles over the centuries have made the elves a habit-when ogre began to launch an invasion, the Wind-Zhuying Forest was the first "line of defense". They took the lead to resist and let the morning star forest There is time to gather enough reinforcements to wipe out the invading ogre settlements.
Last year's battle has caused heavy losses to the elves in the eastern part of the ancient wood forest, and as the largest settlement, Morningstar Forest also suffered the most casualties. Not only the warriors' casualties, but also various important supplies are severely lacking.
This is why the Elders of the Morning Star Forest are still unwilling to form an alliance with humans. The Elders of the Morning Star Forest still failed to prevent Luca from going to Deep Forest Castle. The next ogre invasion is here.
Without the Morning Star Forest, relying on only a few elven settlements nearby, it would definitely not be able to resist hundreds of ogre invasions.
Four days ago, the war dancers in the Wind-Chasing Forest noticed that the ogre settlement appeared again on the border of the big tree wall. Immediately began to resist, and sent messengers to inform the morning star forest and the nearby elven settlement to prepare to resist.
They at first are just preparing to delay Ogre's pace to buy time for the reinforcements. But...
"Trolls?!" Luca yelled out: "How could there be trolls in the ancient wood forest?!"
Luca would be surprised. Reason. Giant monsters are supposed to be in the wilderness further south of the ancient wood forest. The twenty-meter size is basically impossible to survive in the forest.
"I also think it's impossible, but it's true." The ugly look in Kono's eyes flashed with scary memories: "The monster directly climbed up the cliff and pushed to one of the ancient woods. , And then countless ogre climbed up the hills along the tree trunk!"
"We didn’t even have time to react, and we were slaughtered by the ogre who was flanked by both sides! Only one day, the wind and the forest The war dancers were half killed, and even...their bodies were never recovered." Kono's voice was a little choked, and the silent Loren certainly understood what he meant—no The corpse found was eaten by ogre.
"The warriors of the Wind-Chasing Forest have persisted for three days and have been waiting for the reinforcements of the Morning Star Forest-not only the war dancers, but all the young elves have participated in the war. Up to now, we can only Reluctantly protect our own settlement."
"We are short of weapons, medicines, manpower...We are short of everything, but in the end we simply cannot seal the gap in the tree wall!"
"We tried several times to recapture the hills from ogre. But they established a settlement there without big trees as cover. No matter how many war dancers, they just went to die, let alone those I just picked up Lance’s youngster!"
"Where is that troll?" Loren asked, "Where is that troll now?"
"I don’t know. ." Kono turned his head away.
"I don't know?!"
"I don't know-after ogre started invading, the troll disappeared!"
The expression is stiff Konnock restrained his fear, and stared at Loren: "I don't know where the monster has gone, and I don't know why it appeared; but I'm clear, if the monster appears again..."
He paused and licked his dry and trembling lips with the tip of his tongue:
"The elves of the Wind-Chasing Forest, will disappear forever in this world!"
