Chapter 30 Zhentarin Society
"The Japanese Elf Envoys suffered great losses. Prince Milleras's personal guards suffered heavy casualties and even the prince himself was slightly injured." Ilistin was slightly stunned. Although he didn't know why Qin Lun asked about the Japanese Elf's situation, he still told the truth.
"Oh, this is really... regret!" Qin Lun's eyes flashed and he asked casually, "Where are the mercenaries they hired, have they not contributed to the prince?"
"Mercenary? Well, it seems that two human mercenaries were also killed, but there were only eight of them in total, so they probably didn't play any role!" Ilistin said with some uncertainty.
Qin Lun smiled lightly and said nothing. Ilistin has been with him in this battle, only knowing about the attack on the Japanese elves, and not enough to understand the strength of the apostles.
However, Qin Lun is different. He knew that the Lost Newcomer Group should play a crucial role in protecting Millaras. Otherwise, the Sun Elf Prince, who was killed and injured in his personal guards, would never have suffered only a little bit of minor injuries.
Judging from the close cooperation between the orc cavalry and the assassins, the attackers had already planned and had a great influence behind the scenes, and they were even confident that they could master the orc's double-edged sword.
In Qin Lun's opinion, the main target of this attack was obviously the Sun Elf Envoy. As for the core senior leaders of the Moon Elf, including him, the descendant of the pseudo-royal family, they were just secondary targets. Even so, the stalkers he encountered at least reached the level of a high-level apostle.
Although Qin Lun was not equipped with much equipment at that time, he had realized the heart of a hunter before. With the "anatomical blood" transformed by the heart of killing, his force was extremely close to the second level, but he had no power to fight back under the attack of the stalker. Even Joey could only rely on his temporary courage to use his life to exchange for injuries, and he saved his life.
This is not because he is not prepared enough or has lost the first move, but because of the overall suppression of the high-level profession in absolute force against the low-level profession. As for the counterattack of the "Star Black Hole" later, most of the credit is actually attributed to Ilistin and two other elf rangers. Otherwise, with the "Star Black Hole" preparation for several seconds, he would not have the chance to attack the stalker.
The enemies encountered by the secondary targets are so powerful. Their main target, Milleras, who has a whole team of sun elves' personal guards, can be imagined. There are definitely more than one or two advanced professions that appear there.
"Two people actually died!" Qin Lun raised his eyebrows, and he had to say that the result was a bit beyond his expectations.
The combat power of single apostles and team apostles in small-scale battles is very different, especially the mixed teams such as the Lost Newcomer Group that combine professions. This is definitely not a simple addition and subtraction relationship. Compared with single apostles, a team that cooperates with tacit understanding will have a geometric increase in combat power.
"Ilistin, do the elders know the identity of the attacker?" Qin Lun asked slowly.
"I know, it's the infamous Santalin Club!" Ilisten said gritting his teeth, a hint of ferociousness appeared on his sweet and delicate face for the first time. He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Elder Adeline probably targets Prince Millas. The assassination of the senior leaders of the clan and descendants of the royal family should be just a matter of course. Anyway, the peace-loving elves have always been their mortal enemy."
Santalin Club? Hearing this name, Qin Lun quickly remembered the two small intelligence gathering missions "Harpist" and "Santalin Club" that he received. After a moment of looking at the death list, he found that both of these small missions had disappeared, but these two terms can be found in the death list. It seems that the Broken Starry Sky got detailed information from other apostles.
Although the intelligence collection task is a small personal task, the target is all the apostles entering this world. Since someone has completed it, it will naturally disappear from the taskbar of other apostles.
In order not to reveal his apostle identity, Qin Lun did not look for information about these two small tasks everywhere. He sank his consciousness into the death list, checking the information of the "Santalin Society" and "Harpist", while listening to Ilisten's explanation.
Santalin is composed of mages, priests, warriors and thieves from the evil camp. The main bases are Santyr Fortress in the Moon Sea, Tibetan Black Town and Crow Fortress. Also known as the Dark Intelligence Network, it is an extremely evil organization.
Anything that cannot be directly controlled will not hesitate to use all terrible means to force it to surrender or secretly weaken its power until it can no longer pose any threat to Santalin and submit.
The main purpose of the Santalin Society is to control the Moon Sea area, secretly manipulate all the political centers of this area, and control the trade routes of the Moon Sea to the most prosperous areas of the continent, such as the Falling Star Sea, the Lake of Steam, and the Sword Bay.
The leadership group of the Santalin Society is called the "Inner Ring" and is composed of many people. This evil organization is powerful and has been able to recruit many powerful people from the evil camp because of its long-term control of the gold trade routes.
To this day, Santalin Society has become a cancer on the continent of Feren and has even threatened the peace of many human kingdoms and intelligent races. However, the organization's leadership is relatively loose, its members are not cohesive, and there is no clear political program and ultimate goal, which has not become a climate for many years.
The biggest opponent of the Santalin Society is the "Harpist Alliance". Non-evil people of any age, profession, and race in the Feren continent can become harpists.
Elf, half-elves, humans, even centaurs, dwarves and other highly intelligent forest races. The first three types account for the majority of the harpists. Most of these people are bards or rangers, and of course there are other professions.
Harpists are a secret organization with a very loose structure. I have never heard of them having clear leaders and complex internal personnel. Most harpists hide their identities and will only take action at key points in the current situation, and will retire immediately after completing the task.
Since harpists do not pursue fame and fortune, but only carry out actions in accordance with their ideals and justice, most of them act alone, making it difficult for the organization to accurately define the organization's program and specific goals.
The only thing that is clear is that the harpists believe that their task is to maintain balance in the world and destroy the conspiracy of evil organizations. This also makes them completely mortal enemies with Santalin. Many times, both organizations are tit-for-tat and do not give in.
Listening to Ilistin's introduction to the Santalin Society, Qin Lun quickly understood why this evil organization targeted the Japanese elves envoys. The Comanso Forest is close to the Moon Sea, on its southern shore. The Comanso Elf itself is the biggest geopolitical opponent of the Santalin Society, and many harpists were born in Comanso.
The trade routes that Santalin will strive to control will fall from the Moon Sea to the Star Sea and the Weihong Sea, through the Naga River and the Alan River to the Lake of Steam, from the south of the main road to Kalin Port, and then head north along the trade kilometers of Jianwan to the Deep Water City. This horseshoe-shaped golden trade route is actually equivalent to the migration path of ancient elves.
The migration route of the Japanese elves will bring inevitable turmoil to this golden trade route, causing Santalin to reduce its control in this regard and affect their most fundamental basis. No wonder the organization has put a desperate siege and blocked the Japanese elves envoys.
In fact, the migration of the Japanese elves in Long March will affect more than one Santalin Society, among which the large commercial alliances, churches and large organizations in various human kingdoms along the way will inevitably be greatly affected.
For example: the Seven Suns Chamber of Commerce in Kalinshan, the Red Robe Mage Society in Am and Taser, the Iron Throne of the Baldur Gate, the 16-member Lords Council in Deep Water City, the Ambori, Taimora, Gaod, Irmat, Oma and other churches that rely on commercial ports and towns.
The areas where these organizations and alliances are rooted in the entire western and southern continent of Feren, occupying three-quarters of Feren's essence and more than 85% of the population. If we include other elves who are unhappy to see the success of the Japanese elves, the Comanso elves are almost enemies of the entire continent.
In the history of Feiren without the participation of the apostles, the Japanese elves re-traceed the ancient path so that they once again had the leadership of the elves in terms of law and reputation since Erivanda. In addition to the special geographical location of Yongju Island, the rebuilt Sun King Court has essentially become the spiritual pillar of the entire Feiren elves.
Unfortunately, due to the butterfly effect of a murderer, the future Yaoyue Elf Court has greatly overwhelmed the Sun King Court and became the new political center of the Feren's elves. The ongoing Long March of the Sun Elf has lost its greatest achievements before it has succeeded, and has also made the careful planning of the elf god King Kerrellon Larisian silence, and finally split the elf god system into two camps.
...
After Yilistin left, Qin Lun pondered for a while, then took out the sacrifice glove from the storage space and put it on his left hand. After this lesson, he did not dare to be too arrogant anymore. Even if he needed to conceal his identity, at least three sixth-level magical sacrifice gloves that could instantly be in his hand.
Although he had only talked with Ilistin for a while, Qin Lun still felt a split headache, and a line of blood and tears fell on his right eye, which was swollen like a walnut. The use of large skills such as "Star Black Hole" is not only consuming energy values, but also seems to involve some kind of energy data that has not been set on the death list.
Judging from the current reaction of the body, this power has a certain relationship with spiritual will, vitality and soul. Qin Lun is now having a split headache and it is difficult to concentrate. It is obvious that his mental power is consumed too much. In addition, his health is still unable to recover to his best state, and even his life soul consumed a full 37 points.
In this state, Qin Lun had to give up thinking and fell asleep in the tent.
