Thick clouds blocked the hot sun, casting a shadow over the land. However, there was not a breath of wind across the fields, and the sweltering heat was a distraction.
Here, it was the western border of the Elasia Empire. A lightweight carriage was speeding along the bumpy road, and the driver was a young man with short grayish-brown hair hanging loose in front of his forehead, covering the upper half of his face, but the gaze coming out from between his hair was incredibly flexible. On his body was a crude cloth coat, but it was well tailored and fitted exceptionally well.
At this moment, this teenager pursed his lips tightly, sweat rolled down his face, but he couldn’t care to wipe it off, he just waved the whip in his hand one after another, driving the carriage as fast as he could.
“Jem, can’t you drive the wagon slower?”
A soft and gentle voice came out from the carriage, with a slight pain in its voice.
“Miss, I know you’re having a hard time. But we can’t slow down, if those guys catch up, it’ll be hard to get away again.”
The young man replied without turning his head, not relaxing the reins in his hands in the slightest.
“Catching up with the road for one more day, we’ll be deep into the border of Erasia, and as long as we enter a large city with a heavy guard, I’m sure those guys won’t dare to catch up with us again.”
There was a silence in the carriage, and a soft sigh was faintly heard.
The teenager who was driving the car slightly glanced sideways and backwards, an expression of pity appeared on his face, but he finally turned his head resolutely. Gazing ahead, the teenager’s face suddenly changed, and he called out in a low voice, “Miss, be careful.”
A slightly panicked voice came from inside the wagon, “Are they catching up?”
“That should be them, let’s rush over.”
The teenager replied in a hushed voice, his eyes staring ahead without blinking.
A row of silhouettes were arranged in a messy manner in front of them, and from afar, one could only feel that their movements were stiff and oddly shaped.
As the carriage sped closer, the teenager’s eyes narrowed as the group gradually became clearer.
The tattered clothes were hanging on their bodies, and the tattered places of the clothes revealed the dead gray skin, and many places could still see the rotting wounds. The muscles of their faces were also rotten and expressionless, but their eyes were wide open, but they were filled with a palpitating red light, reflecting the sharp blades held in their hands, which were also hidden in red.
“It’s a group of zombies, more than thirty of them, and a few of them seem to be high-level corpse soldiers.”
The teenager’s voice dripped with nervousness as he took control of the reins with one hand, let go of the whip with the other, and grabbed a longsword from the side.
The curtain of the car lifted slightly, and a pair of clear eyes flashed behind the curtain.
“There are too many of them, so I’m only afraid I won’t be able to rush through.”
At this time the carriage has been gradually approaching the group of corpses, several of the zombies have been slow to welcome them forward out, actually seems to be to block the speeding carriage.
The teenager’s grip on his sword tightened for a moment, cold sweat seeping from his hand. The speeding carriage was by no means humanly possible to stop, yet the ones in front of them were no ordinary people, and heaven knows how much power they actually had in their tattered bodies.
Just when the carriage was about to come into contact with the corpses, the several zombies that greeted them raised their blades in their hands. A huge and incomparable fire ball suddenly fell from the air, and with a “boom”, the several zombies were submerged in the blazing flames.
The neighing of the steeds and the harsh howls of the horses resounded at the same time, and the wagons passed through the burning flames with a whirr, knocking several fire-covered bodies out of the way and into the mass of corpses behind them.
“Kill!”
The teenager let out a wild roar, and the longsword in his hand swung vigorously to the sides of the carriage. The sensation of the blade cutting flesh and breaking bones came clearly, and a broken arm and limb flew in front of his eyes. Unable to count how many zombies he had cut down, the teenager’s clothes were already soaked with sweat, and his arms were slightly sore. Two zombies climbed onto the seat of the car when his sword swinging speed slowed down.
A soft light shot out through the curtain of the car at the right time, the teenager’s body was enveloped by the light, a force was born from the body, and the fatigue of the body seemed to disappear immediately.
With a stern shout, the teenager stood up from the car seat and kicked the zombie on his left side, and the hilt of his right hand longsword slammed heavily on top of another zombie’s face, instantly knocking the guy over and out of the car.
There was a pain in his right foot as a short sword left a deep wound in his foot. With a grin, the teenager flipped his long sword, and a hideous human head flew out diagonally. With a shake of the reins in his left hand, the steed pulling the carriage let out a long neigh, and the carriage finally rushed past the corpses, leaving them far behind in a matter of moments.
The teen let out a cheer, “Miss, we’re coming through.”
As soon as the words fell, the teenager’s gaze swept forward and his smile froze on his face. The weather was still so sweltering, yet the teenager who had just gone through a fierce battle felt a chill on his body.
Not far ahead, neatly arrayed were ten strange men clad in brocade robes, as thin as firewood. Bird claw-like hands were slightly raised in front of their chests, and two sharp fangs were exposed beyond their lips, their forms were exceptionally horrifying.
Although there were only ten enemies, the teenager lost his courage to advance, and with a snap of the reins, brought the carriage to a halt.
“Miss, there are ten vampire kings in front of us, in addition, there seems to be ……”
The teenager whispered a report to the lady in the car while nervously watching the front. A tall black shadow appeared behind the ten strange men and slowly crossed the crowd.
The teen let out a groan, “A death knight.”
Pure black armor wrapped around his entire body, and he sat straddling a high horse that was also pure black. Under the dark aura of death, both the man and the horse looked as if they had stepped out of hell. This was the Knight of Death, which was known as the strongest soldier of the Undead Race, and whose power was enough to compete with the Paladins of the Paladin Corps of the Elasia Empire.
During the tens of thousands of years of war between the various races on the continent, the various races in the Upper and Lower Realms had formed a very close approximation of the complete military system. Each race divided their regular combat troops into six ranks according to their combat strength. In the human race, generally trained soldiers were only the first rank of troops. Only heavy cavalrymen who had undergone special training in resisting magic and battle techniques could be granted the title of Paladin and organized into the Paladin Corps. And this regiment, which numbered just a few thousand, was the sixth level combat force of the Erasia Empire, and the most elite.
It is said that the souls of paladins who die in battle if detained by powerful necromancers. After a long period of time and never being freed, the holy souls will be transformed into evil spirits full of grievances, and then if the magician grants them an immortal body, they will become immensely powerful Death Knights, whose power seems to be higher than that of the Paladin.
This same small number of Death Knights then became the sixth level of combat power of the Undead.
Just now, it took a lot of effort to break through the thirty or so vampires. But now, ten vampire kings of fourth level power, and a sixth level death knight. In a situation where many were bullying the few, this kind of power was only more terrifying than three hundred level two power zombies combined. The teenager who was driving the car deeply understood this, and his heart was filled with despair.
A ghostly sigh came from the carriage, “I saw it, Jem, run. They’re targeting me, you run now, maybe they won’t go after you.”
Hearing the young lady’s words, the teenager gritted his teeth and his chest stood up, “Don’t say it, young lady, I will never leave you behind and run away by myself in this situation. Besides, the opponent is the Vampire King, I will definitely not be able to run away either.”
There was no sound in the carriage, the teenager gripped the longsword in his hand tightly and said in a vibrant voice, “There is no choice in the matter. Miss, get ready, as soon as I rush out you unleash your magic and use as much as you can.”
“No more magic.”
The teenager who was about to head out was dumbfounded at the sound, “What?”
“I’ve been using magic constantly these days, but I haven’t had time to rest. My magic power has been depleting, and those two magic spells just now have exhausted my magic power.”
The fighting spirit that had just been revitalized seemed to dissipate without a trace, and the young man sat disheveled on top of the imperial throne, his godless eyes blankly staring at the enemy that began to move slowly.
The black spirit horse stepped away, and the ten vampire kings followed lightly behind, traveling towards the carriage without any haste. The enemy was clearly confident in their overwhelming superiority.
The air in the wilderness seemed as if it had frozen, and only the dull thuds of the horses’ hooves hitting the ground came one by one. In the young man’s senses, each stroke seemed to strike at his heart.
No longer able to endure such pressure, the teenager let out a beastly growl and frantically jumped off the carriage, charging up against the slowly approaching Death Knight.
Within the dark face armor was endless darkness, and the face of the Death Knight could not be seen at all. However, as the teenager rushed closer to the horse, the knight’s head moved slightly. A long, thick, slightly curved chopper suddenly appeared in the knight’s hand and slashed down at the running teenager’s head.
The short hair on his head was split to the sides by the sharp wind pressure forced out by the blade, and the teenager only felt a suffocating force pressing down on his head. The warrior’s instinct caused him to swiftly thwart his body, and the longsword in his hand swung upward with all his might.
“When ……”
With a deafening bang, the longsword in the boy’s hand turned into countless fragments that shot out in all directions, and the huge impact even shook him to the point where he flew backwards like a kite with broken strings. “Peng” sound landed heavily on the ground a few feet away.
With a flash of ghostly shadows, several dry, sharp ghostly claws reached out to the teenager’s eyes. On the other side, a vampire king had already leapt onto the car seat and reached out to pull the curtain.
“Hiss ……”
A piece of the car curtain was ripped away, but the vampire king who struck out suddenly let out a ghostly howl, his withered body tumbled down to the car seat, crouching on the ground and not moving at all.
At the same time, the teenager only felt a strong force lifting his body, and with a flash of light before his eyes, he was already sitting comfortably on the carriage. Several equally tragic cries came from the place where Fang fell, and four more Vampire Kings planted themselves on the ground.
Stunned, he looked to his side as a man wrapped in a silver-gray cloak stood proudly at the side of the carriage, one foot on the vampire king on the ground and a large bow with a dark golden sheen in his hand.
Seemingly deeply surprised, the black horse under the Death Knight’s crotch stopped in its tracks, and the few surviving Vampire Kings even gazed at this uninvited guest with their reddened eyes fixedly open.
“I never thought that I would encounter you monsters of the Undead Race as soon as I entered the border of Erasia, it seems that you are the ones who are too unlucky.”
A clear, ear-shattering voice rang out as the man lifted the cloak he was wearing with one hand and casually tossed it onto the car.
The teenager’s eyes lit up. The first thing that entered his eyes was a head of long orange-red hair, which was casually draped behind his shoulders. On his slender and upright torso, a strong suit of the same color as his cloak clearly displayed his broad shoulders and narrow back, and his ape arms and wasp waist.
The contours of his marble-like face were as sharp as a knife’s edge: pointed and slender ears, a high nose, and a condescending sneer at the corner of his mouth. The most special thing was his eyes, sharp and calm, reminiscent of an eagle searching for its prey. With an arrow pouch behind his back and a large bow in one hand, this man, though motionless, made people feel that his body was full of sharpness and dynamism, like an arrow, an arrow off the string.
“An elf.”
Sucking in a mouthful of cool air, the teenager who was driving the car was so intimidated by this person’s aura that he couldn’t even speak.
The opposite Death Knight also seemed to be slightly choked, but instantly, his long sword was raised, and the black horse under his crotch immediately flipped its hooves and galloped towards this side. Behind him, the five vampire kings spread out, transforming into five gray and black bats, squeaking and screaming strangely as they followed the horse and flew at a gallop.
With a sneer, no movement was seen from this elf, only his arm was felt to move. The squeaking strange scream from the opposite side has changed into a wail, accompanied by ear-shattering clanking loud noise. The teenager’s eyes everywhere, only to see a bat like a bird with a broken wing fall helplessly to the ground, that death knight’s hand long knife waved, but the black horse under his crotch stopped advancing, but instead, it was retreating step by step.
A wisp of sharp wind attacked him, and a vampire king appeared on the elf’s right side. His figure rose up in the air, and his two ghostly claws viciously grabbed at his chest and abdomen, and a large mouth even bit into the vitals on the side of his neck.
Before the teenager who caught a glimpse of this sight could let out a gasp of surprise, the elf’s right hand reached out, and a long arrow held in his hand plunged down into the vampire king’s open mouth and nailed the vampire king firmly to the ground with a poof.
In this burst of work, the four bats on the opposite side had all fallen to the ground, and the teenager could barely see clearly. What the death knight swung his sword to block was a feather arrow. The slender feather arrows seemed to have overwhelming power, every time he blocked one, the black horse that the death knight rode on would have to retreat a few steps. In this period of time, although the death knight blocked no less than ten arrows, his body was still hit by three of them. A stream of black gas emerged from the arrows, and the teenager noticed that the knight’s armor was slowly sinking inward.
“Duh!”
A sharp shout came out from the elf’s mouth, and the long sword in the death knight’s hand came out with a shocking sound, and a feathered arrow plunged into his face armor at the same time. With a “giggle”, the body of the Death Knight shuddered violently, and countless strands of black gas suddenly emerged from his armor, dissipating in the blink of an eye. An empty armor fell to the ground with a bang, and the black horse also disappeared in an instant.
The elf put away his greatbow, glanced at the dazed teenager next to him, and smiled slightly, “It’s over, are you alright?”
Returning from his shock, the teenager froze and shook his head. Suddenly seeming to realize something, he hurriedly shouted towards the car, “Miss, are you alright?”
Inside the car came the woman’s low voice: “It’s fine,” after a slight pause, the woman’s voice raised a bit, “but also to thank you for your help.”
“Ah!” The teenager yelped and bowed to the elf, “Sir, I forgot to thank you for saving my life and my lady’s. May I ask what your name is?”
“My name is Grue.” The elf responded bashfully, picking up the cloak from the cart and draping it over his body, “One thing I don’t quite understand, how did you come to be hunted by an army of undead?”
“This ……”
Only feel “Gru” this name is very familiar, the young man thought carefully, but can not recall where I have heard of this name. When he heard the other party’s question, he hesitantly looked into the car.
“We met them on the road, and I don’t understand how they came after us, maybe it was just a chance encounter.”
“Is that so?” Hearing the answer from the woman in the car, Gru’s gaze flickered for a moment, “To have sent out Death Knights and ten Vampire Kings is a very high priority in terms of the Undead Clan. Is it really just a chance encounter?”
There was a moment of silence in the carriage, and Grue glanced at the slightly uneasy-looking teenager next to him, and suddenly reached out and lifted the curtain.
With a startled cry, Grue’s sharp gaze flicked around the carriage and landed on the young girl reclining on the soft seat.
A plain long dress wrapped around her petite and thin body, and her light teal colored hair was messily scattered on her pale face. The eyes that were placed on her thin face were slightly too large, and at this time, they were even more wide open. Eyes as clear as water, with the color of trepidation gazing at the person who lifted the car curtain. Just the look on her face but also with an indescribable noble and noble atmosphere. At a glance, this young girl actually has a special kind of chu chu touching style.
However, Gelu’s gaze was only slightly swept, and then it was fixed on her left shoulder. The clothes there appeared to have been scratched, revealing a wound wrapped with a strip of cloth inside, with blood still seeping slightly from within the wound.
Blue blood.
“Blood of God ……”
Gelu’s slightly surprised gaze once again returned to the young girl’s face. At this time, the pink face of panic has receded, replaced by, is indescribable skillful and dignified.
“Is this how the renowned Elf King, Lord Gru, treats a woman in distress?”
Before Gelu could reply, the teenager on the side had already lost his voice and exclaimed, ”Ah …… you are the Elf King Gelu. I, I’ve heard of your legend. Hey, it’s really ……” Before the words were finished, the teenager’s face was so agitated that he couldn’t even continue.
“Gru is just a brave man who does whatever comes to his mind, so naturally, he can’t compare to the Divine Spirit Race’s Divine Ambassadors who are so humble and courteous.”
Waving his hand towards the teenager on the side, Gelu took a step into the carriage carriage, “It’s just that Miss, you’re a precious God Envoy of the Divine Spirit Clan, how did you end up in such a sorry state?”
Among the three races of the Upper Realm, the Divine Spirit Race, which faithfully served the God of Heaven and was known as the God’s Messenger, was the race that was considered the noblest. One of the biggest reasons for this lies in the fact that the people of the Divine Spirit Race have blue blood that represents nobility flowing in their bodies. Legend had it that only the descendants of the Gods of Heaven and the Gods of Heaven would have blue blood in their bodies. At the same time, the people of the Divine Spirit Clan all seemed to have an innate high level of intelligence as well as a sensitivity to the sky-based magic known as the power of the Sky God. Every single person in the clan was an outstanding mage.
For the Elves who believed in the Mother Goddess of the Earth, they had never been kind to the Divine Spirit Clansmen who claimed to be the descendants of the Heavenly God. Although there was no hostility at all, Gru’s words still carried a bit of sarcasm.
Hearing Gru’s words, a complicated look swept across the young girl’s face. Seeing the other party step into the carriage, she couldn’t help but straighten her body a bit, as if she wanted to make a move.
Holding down the other party’s body with one hand, Gelu said, “It’s best if the young lady doesn’t move around. I know your Divine Spirit Race’s physique very well, and all of you are like delicate big girls.”
Said with a dumbfounded laugh, “Not to mention you would have been a big, petite girl.”
The movement to get up was thwarted by her opponent, and the young girl could only lie down again. Grue’s long, white hands pulled the rupture in her shirt open a little more and pressed gently on the wound.
“Well ……,” the young girl’s body trembled, but she haughtily kept her lips tightly closed, only letting out a low hum.
Glancing at her pink face that had lost all blood color from the pain, Gelu slightly raised his voice and called out to the outside of the car, “Young man listen carefully, your young lady’s injuries aren’t light, I’m going to treat her now. If she screams out in pain, just rest outside and pay no attention.”
Hearing the sound of the young man’s promise from outside the carriage, Gelu turned back, just in time to meet the young girl’s gaze with questions. Suddenly and seemingly thinking of something, shyness came out of her gaze.
Toward the young girl a slight smile, Gelu a hand, “hiss” a light sound, the young girl’s thin upper shirt has been torn open, revealing the crystal white skin.
Having already thought of it beforehand, the young girl still couldn’t help but tremble. However, seeing that the other party was only concentrating on observing her wounds, only then did she feel slightly relieved and turned her face to the side, but her face was colored with a touch of red.
Clothes open, young girl curves good upper body suddenly fully presented in front of the eyes. Because of shortness of breath and up and down in front of the chest, a pair of crystalline show of small jade breasts, two pink nipples softly trembling. Slender waist and flat stomach can not see a trace of superfluous fat, there is only snow white and full of elasticity of the tender muscles. However, there was a long wound on her left shoulder that extended all the way to her chest, and there were also a few thin scratches on her right ribs. The skin of the wounds was glowing with an eerie dead gray color, shocking to the eyes.
“Was it scratched by a zombie?” All unmoved by the beauty before him, Gru asked bashfully after carefully looking at the wound.
“It’s …… the,” the blush on her face has not yet faded, and there is still a little shyness in the young girl’s voice, “I’ve already used healing magic on the wound, but it doesn’t seem to be doing anything.”
“Having been poisoned by corpse poison, using healing magic won’t do much.” Gelu slowly took out a small short knife, “If you have a strong constitution, you can slowly force out the corpse poison, but your constitution is too poor, so you can only use the method of bloodletting to detoxify the poison.”
Surprisingly, the young girl glanced at the short knife with a cold light and just nodded, with no expression of fear at all. A hint of approval swept across Gelu’s eyes, and the short knife in his hand came towards the dead gray skin.
“Ah ……”
The sharp blade sliced down the necrotic muscle, and despite being mentally prepared, the young girl still couldn’t endure the intense pain and cried out in pain. Through the gap in the curtains of the car visible outside the teenager just slightly turned around, looked toward the car, and then quietly back to the head. Thinking of their own now naked, the girl only then understand the intention of Gelu just out of the voice to greet, can not help but a burst of gratitude.
Watching the blue blood gush out of the wound, the blood tinged with some small amount of dark gray. Gru silently pressed the skin near the wound and squeezed up slightly harder.
The body that had never been touched by a male was suddenly plastered by a pair of large hands, even in the midst of severe pain, the young girl was still flooded with a strange sensation, only to feel a surge of heat in her body.
Gently sideways face to Gelu glanced, the young girl suddenly found that the other party at this time closed his eyes, the expression of a solemn. At the same time, pressed on the wound of the hands began to move slowly along the wound, wherever, a warm and cool feeling seeped into the body, only to feel indescribably comfortable.
“Uhm ……” Unable to resist the chirping out, the young girl was then startled by her own voice and hurriedly closed her lips tightly.
However, the large hands that made her feel incredibly comfortable gradually moved from her shoulders to her breasts. The sensitive parts were gently touched, and the young girl was confused by the comfort that surged within her body, as if she was on a cloud. Slowly closing her eyes, everything around her became as unreal as a dream. Inside the carriage, a low moan was faintly heard, but it didn’t seem like it was because of the pain, causing the teenager outside to be greatly puzzled.
“There!” A low drink rang in her ears, and the young girl instantly came out of her daze. Looking at Gelu sitting on his knees in front of him, looking at himself with a smile, his pretty face immediately turned delicately red like fire.
Sitting up with a jolt, the young girl reached out in panic to straighten her clothes before realizing that the torn shirt had already been covered up. At the same time, she also realized that she could no longer feel any pain at all from the injuries on her body.
Looking at the moving demeanor of the hand-wringing young girl with a delicate blush on her face, Gelu couldn’t help but smile, “Your injuries are no longer in the way, miss, but it’s best to change your clothes. Well, I’ll get out of the car right now.”
After saying that, Gelu back to pull open the curtain, do not see how he gestures, people have swept out of the carriages, landing on the ground.
Watching the other party leap out of the car without a second thought, the young girl vaguely developed an unspeakable sense of frustration. She stared at the falling curtains for a while before lazily taking out her clothes from under the seat.
Walked to the side of the teenager who was sitting quietly not far away, Gelu Fang stood still, the young man who drove the car has hurriedly stood up, slightly uneasy color looking at the elf in front of this is taller than his own foot a head.
“Your name is Jem isn’t it?”
Taking a leisurely seat on the ground, Grue casually patted the ground beside him.
“Yes, my name is Jem.”
Hastily taking a seat beside Gelu, Jem replied in a low voice, “I’ve heard of your lordship’s name a long time ago, and I never imagined that this time, it was actually you, my lord, who saved me and my lady.”
“You use your sword well, I take it you’re not from the Divine Spirit Race?”
Looking at the excited expression on the other party’s still boyish face, Grue just nodded lightly. This kind of admiration for heroes had long been seen too much for him.
“I, I’m not of the Divine Spirit Race.” Jem stammered and replied, “In fact, I’m a trainee …… swordsman of the empire” The word “trainee” was said very softly, however, seeing the dawning expression on Grue’s face, Jem still However, seeing the blank expression on Gru’s face, Jem still couldn’t help but blush.
The military system of the Erasian Empire, each level of the military has its own reserve units. For example, the heavy cavalry, although it is also a regular army and receives paladin training. However, they could not be integrated into the Paladin Corps until they received formal Paladin qualification. The swordsmen that Jem was talking about were the reserve soldiers of the Crusaders of the fourth level. The swordsmen who received the same sword training as the crusaders could be said to be very powerful as well. However, the so-called “trainee swordsmen” were novices who had just received training in swordsmanship and had yet to be formally integrated into the swordsmen’s corps.
“If you’re a trainee swordsman of the Empire, how did you come to be hunted by the Undead along with that lady inside?”
Grue’s voice was slightly confused. Indeed, there was really no reason why a divine envoy of the Divine Spirit Clan and a small soldier of the Erasia Empire would be together. If the young girl in the car was a VIP of the empire, then the task of protecting her could not have been given to a trainee swordsman.
“This, for as long as I can remember, Miss has always lived in our village, and she’s been very kind to all of us in the village for the past ten years or so. However, when I went home to visit my family this time, I ran into a group of zombies trying to capture Miss. Although my sword skills are not good enough, but the lady is so nice, I can’t let her be captured by the zombies. That’s how we escaped all the way from the village to here.”
“Well ……”
Gelu glanced toward the carriage, the doubt in his heart intensifying. The Divine Spirit Race had always maintained their own identity, and almost never left the snowy plateau in the north of the Erasia Continent where they resided unless it was necessary. However, this young girl had been living in the village of the human race for at least ten years, which was indeed unbelievable.
Just then the curtain of the car opened, and the young girl changed into a light green colored long dress, lightly jumped down from the car, and walked towards the two people who were talking.
The original messy hair has been neatly draped behind the shoulders, pale face at this time the delicate red has not receded, doubly feel delicate. Two big watery eyes have been looking at Gelu, but when she met his gaze, she immediately moved away. This young girl came to Gelu’s body and deeply saluted, “Your Majesty Gelu’s great kindness, I really don’t know how to repay my daughter.”
Reaching out to help the young girl, Gelu said, “Miss doesn’t need to be polite, we belong to the same three tribes in the upper world, although we don’t have much to do with each other, I can’t look at you being bullied by the monsters of the Undead tribe.”
The young girl rose and then sat down on the side, bowed her head slightly and said softly, “My name is Thugrit, your majesty may call me Thuuli.”
“Shuri,” Gru responded, picking up, “Nice name. But I just want to know how you left the Ice Plateau, lived for years at a time in a village in the Erasian Empire, and were hunted by the Undead.”
After a pause, seeing Xiu Li with a difficult look on her face glancing towards Jiem on the side, Gelu added: “Regarding this point, if you find it difficult, you can naturally not answer. However, the Undead Clan has mobilized Death Knights for you, and even though they failed this time, it can be imagined that they will never stop. I just want to see what I can do to help.”
Seeing Xiu Li lower her head in deep silence, Jiem couldn’t help but say urgently, “Miss, what His Majesty Gru said is true. A few more Death Knights, we simply can’t deal with them with our strength.”
Shuri shook her head and said to Grue, ”I understand Your Majesty’s good intentions very well, but regarding this matter, I myself am not very clear. Therefore, I can’t say that I understand it either. As for why I am living in seclusion within the empire, this is my private matter, and I think that it should have nothing to do with this matter.”
After staring at Xiu Li carefully for a long time, Gelu let out a breath and stood up long, ”Since Xiu Li you won’t say anything, I naturally won’t force myself. It’s just that I have urgent matters to rush back myself. How about this, I’ll escort you to a nearby big city, but that’s not safe, it’s best to notify your clansmen on the Ice Plains, or find a troop to escort you back to the Ice Plateau. It is there where the power of the Undead Clan cannot reach.”
Jem, who was at the side, hurriedly followed suit and stood up, just about to speak. However, he saw that Xiu Li had already shaken her head, “No, I can’t go back to the Ice Plateau, I won’t inform them.”
Jem was greatly stunned, and for a moment he could only look at Xiu Li dumbly, unable to say half a word. However, Gru’s gaze swiftly swept over Xiu Li’s face, but caught a flash of hatred in the depths of the other party’s large eyes.
Darkly marveling at the other’s response, Grue frowned, “If that’s the case, I won’t be able to guarantee your safety.”
Surrounding herself and rising, Xiu Li softly said, ”Your Majesty saved my daughter’s life today, Xiu Li is already grateful. We don’t dare to delay Your Majesty’s journey, if Your Majesty has any urgent matters, please go on your way. If the Undead Race’s people come again, we will naturally cope with them” The soft voice carried a resolute meaning, Gelu did not say anything else and turned his body after giving her a deep look.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please wait.” Jem ran over in fear, pulling Gelu and calling out, “If the young lady doesn’t want to go back, then she has no place to go. Just like you said, the Undead Clan has already deployed their Death Knights, and unless we get the protection of the Imperial Royal Family, ordinary troops can’t protect us at all. If you don’t care, miss will definitely be captured ah.”
Gelu slowly stopped and looked at Shuri, who stood alone behind him, and pity flooded his heart. However, because of the uneasiness he had recently felt, he had terminated his ten years of hard training, and was in a hurry to return to the Guardian Jungle, so there was really no way to delay for them. What’s more, this woman was harboring many secrets in her heart that she refused to speak openly, so there was no way to help.
Seeing Gru shaking his head, Jem hurriedly picked up, “If you have urgent matters, sire …… here, let s do it this way, anyway, the young lady has no place to go, so why don t we hurry with your majesty, and as long as we arrive at the place of the elves, it will probably be safe as well. Isn’t that right, miss?”
Hearing Jem’s offer, Shuri couldn’t help but look toward Grue, but when she saw that he seemed to be deep in thought, she quietly bowed her head again, but didn’t speak.
“Five phantom archers have been sent back, and with the High Priestess there as well, nothing should happen for that to happen. This woman is quite something, bring her back to Sodanisla and maybe we can discover her secret.”
“Well,” after a long time of contemplation, Grue suddenly spoke out, “This place is still a ways away from the Guardian’s Jungle, using a carriage is a bit slower though, having ten days is about right, so let’s get on the road this time.”
Jem let out a cheer and ran toward the wagon, and when he saw that Shuri was still standing still, he couldn’t help but give her a little nudge behind her, “That’s it, miss, get in the wagon, we’re in a hurry.”
With a movement of her body, Shuri finally gave a silent salute to Grue and returned to the car.
The carriage started slowly and sped off in the direction of the Guardian Jungle. Eyeing ahead, Gru silently read, “Jane, it looks like we won’t see each other for another ten days.”
The uneasy feeling that had plagued him for so many days swept over him again just then, stronger than ever before.
In the empty hall, five green-clothed “phantom shooters” kneeling on the ground without saying a word, Gru sat high at the top, his face sullen.
Upon his return to Sodanisla, he received several shocking pieces of bad news, but Gru was surprisingly calm. After visiting High Priest Deming, who was critically injured and dying, he summoned several “Phantom Archers” to the Great Hall.
“So the High Priest was injured by Sandru and the Queen went with him, is that right?” Coldly looking at the several men kneeling in front of him, Grue’s expression was calm but his gaze was chilling.
“Yes,” replied one of the Phantom Archers, kneeling at the front, respectfully, “we came back too late, and by the time we entered the temple, the High Priestess had already been wounded by Sandru. “
After a slight hesitation, he continued, “As for the Queen, she too was wounded, and it was Sandru who took her away.”
“Well, I heard that the Queen and Loyal betrayed us by not only helping Sandru assassinate the High Priest, but even being so loyal to him that they covered his escape regardless of life or death.”
“This …… subordinates had originally surrounded Sandru, it was Loya’s surprise attack from behind that allowed him to escape. And Her Majesty the Queen blocked an arrow shot by her subordinates for Sandru.”
“Can you be sure?” Grue leaned forward on his upper body, his eyes burning into the answering archer, “Did Her Majesty indeed take it upon herself to deflect an arrow for Sandru, or was it out of her own control?”
That archer looked behind him to his companions and replied back, “My subordinates all saw it very clearly, at that time, Sandru had already turned around, he was in a hurry to escape, and he also didn’t see the arrows I shot at all. Her Majesty, however, clearly saw it very clearly, and thus blocked Sandru’s back in time.”
After a pause, the archer added in a deep voice, “My subordinates couldn’t believe it either, but that’s really what happened at that time, that’s what we saw with our own eyes, and there’s no way we could be wrong.”
“Is that so ……” Gru leaned slowly back in his chair and said in an astringent voice, “So you also gave up on rescuing the Queen and let him go with the enemy.”
“I deserve to die.” Several Phantom Archers bowed their heads deeply at the same time, “My subordinates just thought that the High Priestess was too seriously injured, and from the condition of Her Majesty, it seems that she is in no danger with Sandru anyway.”
“There is no danger ……,” Gru whispered to himself, “The queen of the Elves fell into the hands of the Undead, can this be described as dangerous?” Speaking later, his voice gradually rose.
The several archers all shuddered, sweat rolling down their heads, and said in the same voice, “My subordinates deserve to die, please punish Your Majesty.”
“Never mind,” Gru sighed, “I fully understand your loyalty to me, and the High Priest was in a truly dangerous situation. I will not chastise you, so retire.”
Watching the Phantom Archers exit the hall, Gelu sat in silence. Jiem, who was sitting quietly at the side, couldn’t help but say, “Your Majesty, I don’t think your queen has betrayed you, they must have been mistaken.”
Over these days, Gru and Jem had become quite familiar with each other, and even admired him. Even this matter didn’t evade him and Xiu Li, allowing them to sit on the sidelines.
Seeing Jem with a concerned look on his face while Shuri looked at herself silently, a rather complicated look on her face. Gru laughed dumbly, ”Do you think I would not trust my own wife? Jane would never betray me, but those few men of mine are extremely good archers with sharp eyes, and they would never be wrong.”
Waving his hand to stop Jem, who was about to speak again, Grue picked up, “I heard that Sandru guy is the best at curse-type and control-type magic, and Jane must have been controlled by him. I’m just trying to figure out how to save her.”
Standing up, Grue said slowly, “Either way, that Sandru guy will never have a good day.”
In the cold voice, there was a strong sense of confidence and deep hatred, and Jiem only felt a chill in his body, followed by a boiling of blood. He knew that the war between the two most outstanding figures on the continent was about to begin.
Entering the temple once more, Deming remained still and flat on his back where he had always stood before. His injuries were no longer something that any treatment could work on, and only the divine power from the Mother Goddess in the temple could help him hold on.
“High Priest ……”
Slowly kneeling down beside Demin and looking down upon the pale face that was all but bloodless, Grue felt only a pang of desolation. For many years, this man who was known as the most outstanding mage of the Elves had been quietly guarding Sodanisla, spending countless long years in the temple, and had been considered a representative of the God of Nature. Now, however, this great man who never seemed to fall fell just like this in front of his own eyes, his life as if it were a candle in the wind.
“Kids ……”
Suddenly hearing the voice of the High Priestess, Gelu was not surprised. Ever since moving into the temple, Deming had gone into a deep sleep, almost completely devoid of any signs of vital activity. Moreover, his gaze had been fixed on Deming’s face, and his lips had clearly not moved at all. Yet now, he heard Deming’s voice clearly.
“There’s no need to be surprised, my child, I’m happy to see your reaction.” The voice continued to ring out, echoing in the temple, “My physical body is actually dead, but my spiritual energy has coalesced and remained intact with the help of the sacred power of this place. These days, I have been trying to adapt to this situation, and now, obviously, I can finally communicate with others.”
Already certain that the voice was not coming from a body on the ground, Grue looked up and said, “I don’t quite understand the High Priestess’s words, so what exactly is the situation you are in, life? Or death?”
“Heh ……” Deming’s voice let out a rare laugh, clearly in a happy mood, “Life or death doesn’t matter anymore, in any case, I still exist, you can think I’m still alive, we’ve been conversing haven’t we? “
Deming’s mood infected Grue, and after a moment’s thought he rose long enough to smile, “The High Priestess is right, although we elves enjoy long lives, it seems fitting that I should even congratulate you for having been freed from the bonds of the flesh.”
“The children are teachable!” Deming approvingly picked up, “My fragile body directly contributed to this failure, and now I don’t feel sorry for myself even though I can’t use magic. Freed from the effects of my bodily functions, I can always engage in contemplation and think the problem through very thoroughly. Perhaps in the future, I will be able to find a way to use magic as well.”
Hearing this, Grue asked, “So High Priestess can you tell me where Jane has been taken now, and exactly what kind of control magic Sandru used on her?”
Deming’s voice was silent for a while before it continued, “Jane is not under Sandru’s control; she is, shall we say, fully conscious.”
“But it is not as if she has betrayed us.” Grue’s face paled, and Deming’s voice had taken over, “She must have been forced to kill our people for some reason these days, and at the same time, had to steal the Soul Talisman for Sandru.”
“Soul talisman!?”
Gelu muttered, “So Sandru’s purpose is to collect their undead race’s artifacts, hmmm, he wants to be like Shakshir too. But how could Jane listen to him?”
“For that matter, I’ve always had a suspicion that the problem could very well be with your children.”
“Our children?”
Grue’s eyes flickered, “Good, Jane is only a woman after all, and Sandru probably saw exactly that. Did the High Priestess find anything? Where is the child now?”
“It’s very strange, I have long examined the young prince in detail but never found anything. However, Sandru is skilled in curse type magic, and it is also likely that he used a method that we were unable to discover. Right now the little prince is still in the temple, would you like to go see him?”
“Later.”
Gelu nodded and said, “Even so, Jane shouldn’t be covering Sandru ah. It’s naturally good to be able to kill Sandru, if he can be captured alive, a guy like him would never give up his endless life.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, Gru suddenly looked like he had thought of something and jerked his head up, “I see.”
“Yes,” Deming’s voice took over, “the child was forced to do it, but she killed her own people, and more than that, caused my defeat at the hands of Sandru. She can no longer forgive herself. So, she didn’t block that arrow for Sandru, she didn’t want to live.”
“This fool ……”
Gelu sighed as if he was relieved, then showed a look of gravity, “Since this is the case, it is all the more important for me not to let her fall into Sandru’s hands. High Priestess, I will set out now, and I will definitely bring Jane back.”
With a twinkle in his eye, Grue added, “No matter what kind of curse it is, once the caster is dead, it probably won’t work anymore.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Gru had just turned around when a terrified shout came from outside the temple, “Your Majesty, we’ve just received a report that Moon Elf Patriarch Sarn has declared his separation from Sodanisla’s rule and is going to rise up to seek justice for Princess Yelena.”
Grue stopped dead in his tracks, hearing a long sigh from Deming in his ears.
As an ancient race, the Elves also had tribes within their ranks. The last Elf King was the head of the Moon Elf Clan, the largest of the clans, and Elina was originally the princess of the Moon Elf Clan. After she married Gru, Gru became the Elf King, and this identity was discarded. I didn’t expect that the Moon Elf tribe would rebel under the pretext of seeking justice for the princess.
“This fellow Thane,” said Gru, in a hateful voice, “has resented my succeeding his father for a long time, and now at last he has seized his opportunity.”
“This matter has not been leaked.” Deming’s voice with sadness sounded ghostly, “That boy Sarn, he unleashed it too quickly.”
Grue looked puzzled, “Is the High Priestess saying that Thane is colluding with Sandru?”
“There can be no mistaking it,” replied Deming; “under the circumstances we can only let go the pursuit of Sandru for the present, and deal with the present crisis with all our might. Sandru is by no means a simple man; every step he takes is well thought out. If he is not very sure, he will not begin to carry out the operation of collecting divine artifacts.”
“The words are good, but ……” Grue smiled coldly, “Sandru is still underestimating me after all. Sarn guy can do anything, even if we delay on him for a while, Sandru definitely can’t run far. With my tracking skills, not to mention that Sandru still has two people with him, even if he’s alone, he won’t be able to escape.”
“I have no doubt whatsoever about Your Majesty’s ability, I only hope that Your Majesty can think about the future of the Elven race and try not to cause too many casualties.”
“Don’t worry High Priestess.” Glancing around, Grue smiled easily, “I don’t know where to salute, so I’ll go out and get ready, and take my leave.”
After saying that, this Elf King walked to the door and turned back to say, “I will have to trouble the High Priestess to continue to take care of my child, and I will come back with his mother to see him. At that time, I will also bring the dead head of Sanderu as a meeting gift to my child from me as a father.” Saying this, he opened the door of the temple and stepped out with great strides.
“Oooh …… Lord Patriarch, don’t do that, ah …… I’m going to die …… giggle… …”
Lascivious voices echoed through the room as a naked Loyal, her hair loose, lay in the shape of a huge wooden bed. A similarly naked man was lying on top of her. His lower body was arching up and down vigorously. The man’s face was buried deep between Luo Ya’s breasts, and his green hair was flicking in front of Luo Ya’s chest as his head swung from side to side, the itchy sensation caused Luo Ya’s delicate body to wriggle like a snake.
Hearing Loya’s uncontrollable laughter, the man finally raised his head. A lewd smile was hanging on his rather imposing face, and a pair of red, silk-covered eyes shot out undisguised lust.
“Luo Ya, you little demon, how come I didn’t realize you were this prodigal before.” Saying that, while this man continued to jerk his lower body, he lowered his head to hold Luo Ya’s bright red erect nipples again and nourishingly sucked on them.
“Oops …… hmmm …… hmmm ……”
Loyal’s coquettish moan resumed, but her nimble gaze flicked to the door.
At this moment, the door of the room opened with a “yah” sound. A black-clothed Sandru quietly walked in, and when he met Loyal’s eyes, a smile appeared on his face.
“Lord Thane is still happy with Loyal, isn’t he.”
“That’s fantastic,” hearing Sandru’s magnetic voice, the man who was burying his head in his hands straightened his upper body and slowed down his thrusting, “Brothers saved my sister for me, and let me and Loyal …… hey, I really don’t know how to thank you well.”
“Why are you so polite, Lord Matriarch, it is an honor to serve you, and as for Loyal, of course she will be happy to serve you, the future Lord Elf King.”
Seeing that the other party now shows a complacent expression, Sandru’s face smiles even more. Coming in front of the bed, he reached out and gently stroked Loyal’s soft breasts, feeling the elasticity of the skin, while saying, “I just got the news that Grue has returned to Sodanisla, and he is not a simple character. If Lord Sarn wants to take over the throne of the elf race, I’m afraid it will take a lot of effort.”
“Gru …… hum!”
Hearing Gru’s name, a spiteful gaze came out of Sane’s eyes, ”The seat of the Elf King should have been mine originally, it’s just that the old man is too biased, how can there be a reason to pass the throne to a son-in-law but not to a son. Those guys in the clan only know how to blindly support the princess. Now it’s good that the princess has returned half dead, I’ll see what else they have to say.”
With a hard thrust inside Loyal, Sarn picked up again, “Now no one dares to oppose me in sending troops to Sodanisla anymore. We Moon Elves are the most powerful clan, that Gelu kid has only been the Elf King for a few years and has been away for another ten years, he won’t be a match for us anyways. When the time comes, I’ll let him know how powerful I am, humph!”
As if to vent the grievances in his heart, Saan took a breath, and forcefully raised Loyal’s legs up, and launched a round of fierce attack on the uncovered flesh hole that was exposed in front of his eyes. The long rod stained with Loyal body secretion out of the obscene liquid, no obstacles in and out of the wet pussy, every time is straight back to the hole, and then all roots into the glans again and again hit in the tender flower center, straight to Loyal hit the wail again and again.
Seeing the look of impatience appear on Thane’s face, Sandru opened the hem of his robes without a word and pushed his rod into Loyal’s mouth.
Sane was slightly stunned, but when he saw that Loyal could only let out a muffled “whimpering and whimpering” under Sandru’s rod, and her saliva was even dripping down from the corner of her mouth as the rod was being pumped, excitement shot out from her eyes. His eyes immediately shot out a light of excitement, and he shouted: “Good, let’s go together, and fuck this wench to death.”
With the words, Thane’s movements intensified, cupping Loyal’s round ass with both hands, bringing her lower body even closer to his own. Every time the rod reached the end, it used the force to rotate a few times in the depths of the pussy, the glans rubbing and drilling on the soft, soft flesh. Drilling Loyal’s body shivered, and a burst of nectar poured out wildly, making a wet and messy mess where they met.
Standing at ease, Sandru remained nonchalant as he toyed with Loyal’s breasts, his lower rod flipping and thrusting in and out of Loyal’s small mouth at will.
Time passes quietly, I don’t know how long it has been, but this lewd intercourse still shows no sign of ending. Loyal’s petite body was covered with sweat, reflecting a bewitching light under the light, her hands twisted tightly on the wet sheets under her body, while her round buttocks stood up high and backward. Below the body, a pair of jade breasts appeared much larger because of the hanging relationship, with the body swaying back and forth, illusory dazzling breast waves. Sandru’s hands were kneading back and forth on those perky breasts, and from time to time he extended his fingers to flick the round nipples.
Thane knelt behind Loyal, his meat thrusting from behind his hips into the depths of his honey hole. With each furious thrust, his belly slammed into the resilient flesh of his ass, and then it seemed effortless to back away, followed by another slam.
Loyal’s body was pushed up against Sandru in front of him, and he couldn’t avoid the impact behind him in the slightest, and every stroke of the meat rod was solidly thrust straight into the tight and soft tunnel. Due to the position, the friction between the rod and the flesh wall in the hole was even more intense, a burst of increasingly intense pleasure kept hitting Sane’s lower body, the rod was obviously engorged with blood and swollen, and his movements were becoming more and more frantic.
Standing across from Sarn, Sandru had a very clear view of everything he was doing, and his lower body movements suddenly increased, pushing Loya’s body backward, causing Loya’s hips to keep thrusting backward as well. Loyal, who had been concentrating on sucking on Sandru’s rod, also began to rotate her hips, and the stimulation of Sane’s rod suddenly doubled in intensity.
“Wow …… huh ……”
With a yelp of supreme relief, Thane finally fired freely inside Loyal. With his lower body pressed tightly against Loyal’s hips, his rod pushed deep into the end of his honey hole. A stream of hot liquid poured over the tender center of the flower, hitting the soft mass of flesh with a contraction and quivering.
The firing completed, the strip of flesh that had become soft and snappy slid feebly out of the meat hole, and Thane sat down on the bed as if he had exhausted all his strength. Only the bright red flesh hole slowly began to close in front of his eyes, but there was a steady stream of white liquid pouring out.
Watching the oblivious Sandru pull his rod out of Loyal’s mouth and cover his robes. Thane heartily exclaimed, “You’re good, brother, what, don’t you want to enjoy yourself?”
Sandru smiled bashfully and said, “My humble self has never been very interested in this, I’m just accompanying you, my lord, to have fun. Oh, my lord might as well let Loya help you clean up a bit more, she’s quite good at it.”
Loyal, who was lying on her back, had already turned back around without being told to do so, burying her head in Thane’s crotch and taking the strip of flesh covered in both of their lewd juices and skillfully sucking and licking it.
Narrowing his eyes in comfort, it was only after Loyal had completely sucked and licked his bottom clean and gotten up to dress that Thane said lazily, “Loyal you are wonderful, ugh, so special.”
Loyal stared at him with a thousand charming glances before saying in a manly voice, “What am I, but it’s Her Majesty, that’s the real thing. Isn’t that right, master?”
Glancing slightly at Sarn, who looked different after hearing Loya’s words, Sandru said softly, “Her Majesty is known as one of the two most beautiful women on the continent, so naturally it’s not something you can compare to. It’s just that this is something that Lord Sarn, as her elder brother, certainly knows much better than we do, do we still need you to talk too much here?”
Giving a deep bow to Sarn on the bed, Sandru added, “Your lordship should be tired as well, and tomorrow we will have to study the matter of sending out troops, so my humble servant will not disturb.” After saying that, he exited the room with Loya.
Walking behind, Loyal turned back and closed the door to her room, as if to see Thane lost in thought on his bed. When she turned around, she saw Sandru smiling meaningfully at her, and Loya’s face instantly flushed with amusement.
Passing through the long corridor, Sandru walked into a separate room at the end. The pale and haggard Elina was lying quietly on the bed, her eyes staring fixedly upwards.
“And why should Her Majesty?”
Coming to stand beside the bed, Sandru gazed at Yelena, who seemed to have completely lost her life, and said, ”My humble servant worked hard to bring His Majesty here from Sodanisla, also for His Majesty’s good. Those people in the city will never forgive you for what you did. In their eyes, His Majesty was involved in killing the highest priest of your Elven race.”
Seemingly not hearing him at all, Elina still lay unresponsive, not even blinking her eyes.
Smiling to himself, Sandru sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to pull away the brocade quilt covering Elina’s body, revealing her naked upper body under the quilt. Under the light, the crystalline skin exudes dazzling light, and in that plump and full breasts there is a faint red mark, printed squarely in the position of the heart.
“Her Majesty’s single-mindedness in seeking death is nothing more than realizing this, that as long as you die, you’ll be done with it and won’t have to care about anything, is that it?”
Stretching out his fingers to caress the red mark, Sandru picked up while saying, “Unfortunately you are in my hands, not to mention just such a small injury, even if you really break, my humble self has a way to bring you back to life. You cannot escape.”
At the still unresponsive Yelena, Sandru’s gaze flickered and he said immediately afterward, “Don’t you think about your child? If you die like this, his future is hard to say.”
Still unresponsive and slowly straightening up, Sandru said, word for word, “And your husband, Gru!”
Visibly feeling Elina’s body tense for a moment, an imperceptible smile curled up on Sandru’s lips as he continued, “I’ve heard that he has returned to Sodanisla, what do you think he’s doing nowadays?”
“Your Majesty think about it.”
Elina’s tense body gradually relaxed, however, Sandru no longer continued to speak, standing up and walking towards the outside of the room. When he reached the doorway, he turned back again, “By the way, His Majesty’s elder brother has decided to raise an army, the Moon Elf Clan will never allow anyone to harm their princess.”
After saying that, without bothering to look at Elina’s reaction again, Sandru walked out of the room.
