Dark Redemption of Elf

Leaving the core area of ​​the Thorny Land, the three war horses jogged on the lonely and uninhabited path to save the horses' energy.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Ariel in her arms suddenly turned her head and looked at Ayton with a playful expression.

"I'm thinking about the two of them. They are sincerely helping us. It seems that we can have a deeper relationship."

"What the hell do you want to do with the two of them?" Ariel obviously didn't care about the lives of the two of them.

Ayton was helpless about this. Years of living in dark caves had already made her extremely cold towards others.

"You, please don't say these words in front of others. They helped us block the enemy's pursuit." Ayton flicked her nose and warned her.

He only hoped that this cognitive paranoia could be slowly corrected through a normal life on the ground in the future.

"Oh" Ariel touched her nose nonchalantly and whispered: "By the way, brother, I told Lan Keke about that matter."

"Well, I understand." Ayton smiled and nodded.

Lan Keke in front turned to look at the two of them doubtfully: "What are you talking about?"

"It's nothing. Pay more attention to your surroundings. They may set up an ambush ahead." Ayton waved and said, "How does it feel to ride a horse?"

"It's okay, but it's just a bit different from the horse I rode in the palace before."

"Then let's compete." Ariel grabbed the reins in Ayton's hand.

Lan Keke's willow eyebrows curved and she said with a smile: "Okay." She knew that Ariel had not ridden a horse a few times. When they came out of Black Rock City, they both asked her for advice on horseback riding skills, so she was confident in this aspect. .

"Eluli, Tripis, let's run faster and get rid of the pursuers at the back door as soon as possible," Ayton said softly to the two elf girls next to him.

"But, the two of them..." Iluli looked worried.

"The two of them are fifth-level powerhouses. Even if the two hundred cavalry behind them come, they may not be able to keep them. Don't worry."

"Yes, Your Highness Princess, your life is at stake," Tribis also consoled her.

"...Okay." After Iluli nodded in agreement, Tribis grabbed the reins and urged the horses to run. The three horses galloped all the way to the Asahi Mountains.

the other side...

"Young Master, you, you are finally here." Lying on the ground like a Nosma, he saw the arrival of the eldest son of the Marquis of Thorns, Simel Ford, who he called the Young Master, and said with a trembling voice, tears almost bursting out of his eyes. .

"Nosma!? Damn it, what happened? Where is that little princess?" Simel was wearing a luxurious fiery red magic robe. He gritted his teeth and looked at the miserable condition of Nosma. One of his right hands was almost useless, and it looked like he would never be able to do it again. I can only retire and return home.

There are still about twenty excellent cavalry lying on the ground. In the land of thorns, because it is surrounded by mountains, the number of horses is very small, so they can only go to the Emerald Plains to the west to buy them.

Every cavalryman was a precious asset to the lord, but twenty of them died at once. How could this not make him feel distressed?

"Sir, there is a fight going on ahead. It seems that Lord Gonell is leading the battle. The situation is very tragic." A scout reported respectfully from the side.

"Young Master, you must avenge us and our brothers!" After hearing the scout's report, Nosma glared angrily, looking like a crazy beast.

"Okay, I understand." Simmel took a deep breath, ordered two people to take care of Nosma, and then looked steadily in the direction of Gornell. A cavalry team of two hundred people was behind him, ready to go.

"Everyone, listen to my order and get ready!" All the cavalry shouted in unison, full of energy. They were the elite cavalry at first glance. For this operation, the Marquis of Thorns Norwich sent a total of 250 elite cavalry. Now it has lost nearly one-fifth of its value.

This filled him with rage, and he was about to release it. Who is it that is against them and the entire land of thorns?

"Charge, brave knights!"

Two hundred cavalrymen rushed towards the dense forest in unison. Although there were only tens of thousands of cavalrymen, on this official road, a torrent of steel had formed that could not be ignored.

"Glick, let's go quickly," Ravel released the entanglement and pulled a cavalryman off his horse again, and said to Glick, who was half-stained in blood in front of him. Glick had been fighting on the front line just now, attracting the attention of most knights for him, and his magic was fully displayed.

"Okay." Glick raised his shield to resist Gonell's attack, and quickly turned around and struck the knight who was trying to sneak attack from behind with a sword. The khaki sword with a fifth-level war spirit instantly broke the knight's chest armor.

His companion died in front of him. Gornell's eyes were splitting: "You bastard, take your life."

He fought with this tall man several times, but the opponent's defense was airtight and impossible to break.

"I won't waste time with you any more." Glick quickly retreated, and Gornell was just about to give chase. As long as he entangled the other party and waited for the young master to come, he would be able to keep them here forever.

But a large green vine suddenly grew on the ground, blocking his footsteps.

"Damn vines, damn magic." For the first time in his life, Gonell hated vines.

Glick got on the horse and kicked the horse's belly hard: "Let's go"

"Leave it to me." Gonell picked up the long bow behind him and set the arrow on it. The fighting energy in his body was circulating and clinging to the arrow. He stared closely at Glick's back. Suddenly his eyes turned and fell on his horse. On the horse's butt, his shield would never be able to protect him from that place.

"Careful" Ravel, who had a sharp eye, noticed Gornell's small movements and concentrated magic with his hands.

Several vines of the 'Teng Wall' were woven behind Grik, forming a thick wall to block the arrow for his horse. Even if the arrow was attached with fighting spirit, it could not penetrate the defensive magic condensed by the fifth-level great mage.

"Thank you." Glick, who was extremely happy, couldn't help but look at Ravel.

"Wait, what's wrong with you?" Glick suddenly discovered with horror that an arrow had been inserted into Ravel's back at some point. It turned out that when he was concentrating on the wall, another knight wearing a bow and arrow shot a secret arrow at him. .

Even a fifth-level magician will be injured by ordinary arrows when he is unprepared.

Ravel endured the excruciating pain in his back and said, "I'm fine. Leave here first. Their reinforcements will be here soon."

Seeing that there wasn't much blood flowing from Ravel's back, it probably didn't hurt his vitals, it just pierced the flesh. Glick knew that he couldn't delay again: "You go ahead, and I will block the arrows from behind."

The two men and two horses just fled to the rear one after another. Gornell was unable to shoot a second arrow and became angry on the spot. After a while, Simmel's cavalry troops galloped past him.

"Don't let them run away." There was a hint of gloom on Simel's face. He didn't know the identity of the two people, but one of them used wood magic and looked like a half-elf. He was probably an accomplice of the forest elves. According to the previous The scouts reported that the little princess Yaolan somehow got involved with the forest elf.

If they successfully reach the Flower Language Forest, their land of thorns will most likely be hit by two attacks, but if they can intercept that group of people, capture the forest elves, and frame the matter to Princess Yaolan, they can defraud them. The friendship of the Elf Kingdom can reverse the unfavorable situation, so this operation must be completed.

Dozens of sharp arrows shot out from the cavalry team like locusts, and the iron arrows pointed directly at the two men.

Glick clenched his teeth and raised the huge shield in his left hand. The fighting energy in his whole body was running wildly, gathering on the black shield. The crystal core in the center of the shield continued to shine, and it seemed that it had been filled with energy.

Fifth level combat skill! ‘Shield of All Things’

Glick shouted, and numerous phantoms, virtual and real, appeared on the shield in an instant, and spread out quickly like ripples, making people dizzy.

The phantom shield wall finally settled on the number of nine, guarding their backs tightly. Arrows shot on it could only make a tinkling sound and have no effect.

But this is not a long-term solution. If he cannot get rid of this group of cavalry, Glick's fighting spirit reserves will be unable to hold on sooner or later.

Seeing this scene, Ravel forcibly gathered the last strength in his body and slowly drew a five-pointed star array in the air.

Fifth level magic! ‘Dense blockade’

In an instant, countless vines shot out from nowhere, forming blockades one after another behind the two people.

"Don't be afraid, rush over." As a fifth-level warrior, Ma Difen took the lead and rushed to the front. He had to make up for the failure he had committed in the Pingxi Mountains, but he couldn't figure it out. He knew the strength of the undead dragon best. Several people on the other side were able to hunt the undead dragon. They must have used some means.

At this time, he didn't know that his previous battles were all seen by Ayton and the others, and Ayton and the others had no intention of rescuing him at that time.

"Qinggang Slash" cyan fighting spirit attached to the knight's long sword, quickly and accurately slashed on the cane, but to Madiffen's horror, the cane was pulled out by the long sword for a long time. As the power faded, the cane became like rubber. It rebounded like a tendon. If Madiffen hadn't dodged quickly, he would have fallen off his horse.

The fifth-level warrior's full blow was unable to break through this small vine, and waves of knights' screams could be heard from the side.

Ma Difen took a closer look and found that there were actually barbs growing on the vines, which gave off a chill in the sunlight shining through the dense forest. His knight was wounded by this, and the barb penetrated the flesh, making it difficult to pull it out.

"Exploding fireball"!

The fourth-level magic explosion fireball flew past him. With a crackling sound, large pieces of rattan burned into ashes, but more rattan condensed.

That is the magic of the young master, Simel Ford. Simel is a fourth-level fire magician who uses fire magic to break wood magic.

"Young Master, what should I do?"

Simel's face was ugly, his magic was not as effective as he imagined, and the two people were about to leave his sight.

"Continue to attack this vine, he won't be able to hold on for long," Simel gritted his teeth and said, "We must not let them escape!"

The knights obeyed the order, ignoring the barbs on the vines that penetrated their bodies, and drove their horses to burrow into the dense blockade.

On the other side, Ravel's face was as pale as paper.

"Hey, are you okay?" Glick frowned and looked at him worriedly.

"I, cough, it's okay." Ravel tried to calm down, but he coughed suddenly again. He seemed to have lost all his strength, fell from his horse, and lost consciousness with a bang.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?" Glick quickly dismounted and supported the half-elf. At the same time, he heard the pursuers behind him shouting excitedly, "The damn vines have stopped growing, everyone, work harder!"

Glick gritted his teeth, helped Ravel up and sat on his horse, and couldn't help complaining: "It's really unlucky for me to meet you. Otherwise, I will really lose my life."

"No, we can't run in their direction," Glick thought to himself, and drove the horse to run south. Their target was the elf girl. If they ran to the east, they would definitely be caught. Only by running separately to the south would they have a glimmer of hope.

After a while, a group of cavalry finally broke through the dense blockade. Madiffen said in a low voice: "Young Master, they ran to the south, and their destination should be the Huayu Forest in the east."

"Young Master, the little princess and the forest elf are indeed running to the east toward the Chaori Mountains. I can see it clearly." Gonell rode up to the young master Simel.

Simmel pondered for a while and said: "Gonel, you take twenty people to chase those two people. They are already at the end of their game and can't run far. The rest continue to capture the little princess and the forest elf."

"Yes, young master." Gonell quickly pointed out more than twenty cavalrymen and chased in the direction of Glick and his two men.

Simmel turned around and looked at the remaining cavalry troops, and shouted in a deep voice, "Everyone, wealth and honor are here. Once our cause is successful, you will all be the founding heroes of the country, and there will be no less fiefs or titles."

"I obey, for the Kingdom of Thorns!" Everyone has a very high desire for power and status, especially knights like them who were born as civilians. There has been no war in the Yaolan Kingdom for a long time, and naturally there are few changes in positions. This time is their only chance, and everyone is full of morale.

"Brave knights of the Ford family, set off!"

Nearly two hundred cavalrymen rushed eastward in a mighty manner.
