The elves came. Minas Ishir's flag appeared from the gate of the camp and gradually approached the Count's camp along the hard road reinforced by Feich with spells. There were not many elves coming, and more than thirty cavalry came steadily in the form of two columns. The elves patrolman wearing green cloak sat upright on the horse, even if he was bareback.
"The flag of the elves has changed. Now it is a towering tree growing on the island?" Feiqi squinted his eyes and used Hawkeye meditation to check it out. "Yes, there is a variation of the elves' word "sea" around the soil under the tree. Are these elves still thinking about the island that they predicted to sink?"
"What does this have to do with us? Prophecy has been so many years, isn't the Elf Island still there?" Earl Hall was not polite to the elves, mainly because the assassin who had elves wanted to kill his son. "Who made that prophecy? The island did not sink, and the elves came to the land - none of these two things were my intentions."
Who made the prophecy? In addition to the priest of the Goddess of the Truth, can anyone else make prophecy? Feiqi has also studied prophecy, divination magic and spells, hoping to introduce it into his magic system. Rune spells have indeed been completed and can be cast, but Feiqi has never been able to predict accurately.
Whether it is a matter of thinking directly or in the opposite direction, whether it is a small matter like falling down or a major matter like tomorrow's weather, the prophecy in the magic system has never been correct. Perhaps it is not a problem of spells and spells, but a problem of Feichi. He believes that the future depends on his own efforts. Thoughts and hands can change the future, and time will produce countless branches on the future issue. The soul does not believe it, so how can magic be effective?
"Father, did the Elf say who is the leader?"
"Leader? Do you compare the elves to mercenaries who work hard with money? Don't say such words in front of the elves. Only frivolous language can be used by frivolous people." The Count recently regained his enthusiasm for educating children, and seized almost every opportunity to correct Fitch's mistakes. "The new lord of Minas Ishir will come, Seedron Heliliang."
"It's not that the river is cold, it's He Limi'ang." Feiqi corrected: "In the elves, it means crystal dew like diamonds."
"If dew forms a river, it will be very cool." Earl Hall smiled.
"The frivolous language is only... I didn't say anything, don't care." Feiqi yelled twice, skipping it without mentioning it. This time the elves can send Lord Minas Ishir to lead the warriors here in person. Whether it is thirty or thirty thousand, the meaning is the same: this is the choice made by the entire elves territory in the face of conflict, and its political significance is extraordinary.
Soon, the knights approached, and Feich met Seidron Holimion again. They had a relationship with Minas Ishir for a while, and gave Feich the impression that he was as calm, arrogant and simple as other elves. This time, Lord Seidron wore a beautiful satin robe with long sleeves, a tidy emerald belt, and his soft chain armor was densely inlaid with shiny diamonds or yellow soft gold. He carried this giant golden bow and rode on a snow-white horse. The mount was slender, with light steps, and his swinging hair and tail were like swaying clouds. There was a piece of copper on the horse's forehead, with the badge of the giant island tree printed on it, constantly reflecting the sunlight ahead.
"Is this trying to blind you?" Feiqi commented.
Seidron came to the camp tent, pushed his hands on the horse's back, and landed lightly like a gymnast. Although he was wearing a chain armor and inlaid with various decorations, there was no sound of dismounting. He stroked the chest and bowed to Count Hall from afar, then walked over with his arms wide open. Count Hall laughed and opened his arms to meet him. The two pairs of arms met halfway, forming a circle, embracing the laughter that was as close as brothers.
Seidron is a very handsome young man among the elves. His slightly long face is filled with the melancholy of the ocean, and his eyes are like a full moon hovering quietly on the sea level. When he smiles, even this kind of polite smile, he gives people a beautiful enjoyment like the rippling sea of ​​moonlight.
"The elves must stand on the side of justice, follow and support justice to win." Seedron's common phrase is not very standard, but he can hear that he works hard: "Because of this, I will do my best."
"It's good to come." Earl Hall said: "Can you introduce me to the warriors of the Elf clan?"
“My genre is not very good, and I don’t know how to say some words.”
"It's okay, just say the elf language. I'll let my son translate it. Feichi St. Hall, you've met in Minas Ishir before, so I don't need to introduce it again, right?"
"No, no, who do we know the name of Feiqi Saint Hall?" Seidron turned into an elf and said: "The man who eliminated the bandits to calm the sea, a powerful mage who held the power of space in his palm, and was also the former spell consultant of the United Kingdom of the Hoya nobles. Although you are still young, the deeds you have created are enough to admire the long-lived elves."
"Thank you for your praise, but I'm still young after all, and there's a lot to learn, especially from elves with a long culture and history." Feich glanced at the elves behind Seidron, and said, "Are these hunters?"
"That's right." Seidron began to introduce, and Feiqi was responsible for the translation. "The hunters are equivalent to human light cavalry, but they mainly use volleys and fixed-point long-shooting attacks, supplemented by scimitars. They are equipped with two bows of size and size, and use special arrows to easily penetrate metal armor. They are most suitable for reconnaissance and harassment, but they are just more flexible archers on the front battlefield."
Seedron said this, just to avoid the elves under his command being used to fight against the frontal large corps. The elves have a small population, and one is really dead less, which is very distressing. Earl Hall also understood and said with the flow: "How can the elves who come from afar be too hard? If there is a conflict with the church, we will naturally fight for the honor of the king at the forefront!"
"Thanks to the Count for their understanding. This time, in addition to the thirty hunters, the Elves Presbyterian Church also sent fifteen druid casters to come, which will arrive in about three days." Fitch was also surprised by the news from Seidron: "Elf druids have the ability to heal and cure diseases. They can also purify food and drinking water, and use a berry to solve the dietary needs of an adult throughout the day. They are willing to provide convenient services for the King's Army, so that the balance of victory will be tilted more to the justice side."
Druids are unique spellcasters of elves. They also use divine arts, but their beliefs are between the truth thunder and the Creator's master, and focus more on the throne of "the world and its nature manager", rather than who the gods are sitting on the throne. They have their own rune language system, which is completely different from the goddess's magic rune, but they are not the spell rune of the Creator's master. Feiqi believes that the druids used some method to hide their runes and avoid being learned by outsiders. When he "killed" on the Elf Island, he was curious about what the druid rune was, and wanted to peek and learn, but unfortunately he was discovered and missed the opportunity.
In the culture of elves, becoming a druid and studying druid spells is a lifelong pursuit. No elves will give up halfway, and there will be no slackness at all. This leads to every druid becoming stronger and stronger, becoming a protector of elves and a nightmare for enemies. Their spells use the power of nature to imitate natural phenomena, from wind, rain, thunder and lightning to flying insects and beasts, they can be presented with their spells.
"I wonder if I can ask the druids for knowledge? I am very interested in the spells of elves." Feich said: "The elf druids advocate nature, and I also think that a stable, continuous, and cyclical natural system is very important to all living beings. Those spells that can protect nature and the spirit behind it are very worth learning."
"I'm very willing to make this happen," said Seedron. "It's just that the elves druids are relatively independent. I can't order them to do anything, I can only convey your wishes to them."
Well, at least this time the elves were telling the truth. Feiqi nodded without comment, and then continued to follow the elves and translated his words to his father. This time the two sides introduced each other was essentially a polite process, but Seedron next introduced his thirty hunters one by one in detail. From their names to past achievements, from their strengths in combat to their hobbies in life, and even the artistic tastes of these people were said.
Earl Hall listened with relish, at least it seemed so. Feich looked at the Count's increasingly irritable soul while thinking about the elves' intentions. Seidron did this on purpose, definitely to observe the Count's reaction to determine what prospects he would face in the King's army.
In fact, no matter how he plays, the prospects are certain: there is a relatively independent lowland at the easternmost point of the camp, which is the residence of the elves. Before the elves moved in, Earl Hall had already mobilized some lords to arrange the more confidant army near the elves to separate their contact with other camps. Feich was also busy with this matter a few days ago, but at that time he didn't know that the elves came back, thinking that this kind of toss was just a test for him by the Count's father.
A clearing space that can accommodate a thousand people, now only thirty elves live in. How empty and isolated is this? However, Earl Hall also said to Fitch: "As long as the elves of Minas Ishir comes, he will complete his historical mission. He has already expressed his opinion with his actions, and it doesn't matter if he leaves immediately. Originally, the King's Army had to arrange some lords to leave according to the remaining time of military service, and the elves were actually the same."
The elves did not give any comments on this arrangement. After Seedron asked Earl Hall for some tents, he took his men in. Every day, they did not leave the camp and were moving in that "wide" area. The only contact with the outside world was to ask for some forage and beans for feeding horses.
During the camp's change of positions, a team attracted Feiqi's attention. It was a team led by a small lord named "Black Water Collar". There were only forty knights and escorts, but there were 200 standard boxes that were carried, which were even more spectacular than the relocation scenes of some large lords. This standard box was produced by Minas Ishir and was imitated in other places. It was mainly used in the transportation of teleportation arrays. Although it was not a valuable or rare thing, this kind of box was not popular enough, especially in the army. Earl Hall has not asked Feiqi to make teleportation arrays so far. It is logical that there shouldn't be so many standard boxes.
Feiqi thought he was a major customer of a teleportation array, and was affiliated with this "Black Water Collar" nobleman, so he curiously chased him. As a result, the Black Water Collar was not someone else, but Benny and her mercenary group.
Wearing a burly armor, Benny completely covered her female characteristics. She wore a realistic leather mask on her face, looking completely a rude and ferocious man with basically no flaws. She also held a cigar with herbs added to herbs. The smoke made her voice thicker, like a man. If she hadn't taken the initiative to reveal her identity to Fitch, Fitch wouldn't have guessed it.
This is not a transformation, nor is it an illusion. The soul fire can only see emotions and states, and never show names! Feich's Hawkeye meditation has powerful observation power, but when he observes carefully, he finds that Benny's fake face is a bit weird, and he still cannot be 100% sure that it is a disguise.
"You guys... this makeup technique is so amazing. Can you pretend to be anyone?"
Benny took the cigar off her mouth and fixed it in the circle bent by her index finger. After spraying a cloud of mist, she said in a slutty voice: "This mask is very difficult to make. It must be adjusted little by little for a long time. And a strong man like me who disguises himself as a big head is OK, but those with small heads and small faces are completely helpless."
"That's right, after all, you can't compress the human skull and put it into the mask."
"This disguise technique has helped a lot during our mercenary period, especially when we meet unruly employers - we will talk about this later if we have time." Benny reached out and touched her fake beard, and then said, "Feich, I heard that the elves are coming, and they are the elves of Minas Ishir? What are they here to do?"
"They came here to show an attitude and support the United Kingdom of the Hoya nobles. There is nothing else." Feiqi said: "What are you doing here? Didn't you make money by becoming mercenaries? Why did you become the lord's knight? Do you really want to change careers?"
"Hahaha, how is this possible! I told you that there is a real lord in my team, who is a nobleman of Feinberg. Although there is actually no manor - it was burned in the war, all identities are still there, and it can still correspond to the call of the King's Army. We found that joining in this way is more reliable than writing a letter to ask to be a mercenary."
"I can understand this, but what do you rely on to make a living when you come in? Where did you get so many big boxes?"
"Those boxes are not ours, they are just escorted by us. Now many nobles have learned to use teleportation arrays to transport supplies, but they still need to be transported from Tawugang City. We are responsible for this period and earn some hard money. In fact, before joining the King's Army, we had already undertaken some such jobs." Benny said with a smile: "In addition, we can also take on guard, patrol, correct the ground, and maintain armor and weapons for some nobles. We didn't earn much, but we were familiar with the road and enough people to eat horses."
Feiqi shook her shoulders and gave Benny a thumbs up, but he felt that this was wrong in his heart. Although the army mixed with lords was like this, always loose and always doing their own things, it was too much to hire others to work for him? This army is too far from Feiqi's standards, so the Knights of Hell will definitely not be like this.
"Bay!" Benny's father, the tall guy, waved not far away: "It's not too late, I have to work for the employer! Don't you still want to see the elves?"
Chapter completed!
