Infinite Trial from the Giant

After spending a quiet night at the campsite, the next day, Kizmel took the initiative to bring Asuna to the tent where the three of them lived in the summer.

After thanking Xia Tian and others for rescuing Ellilo, everyone set out together and came to the command tent of the night elf commander.

"Human swordsmen, you are here." After seeing Xia Tian and the other three, the commander quickly put down what he was doing and said solemnly, "After yesterday's discussion, we have roughly determined the original purpose of the impostor. They must have wanted to sneak into the camp and steal the secret key. Although their conspiracy did not succeed, they will definitely try to seize the secret key again in the future."

"So, next we must strengthen the guard of the camp and be on guard against the possible conspiracy of the forest elves. As for the strengthening and investigation of the spells in the outer camp, it will be left to Kizmel and you."

"Has it changed from retrieving the stolen key to strengthening spells and reconnaissance?" After coming out of the tent, Xia Tian muttered to himself thoughtfully.

"It seems that the revised mission is easier than going to the forest elves to retrieve the key." Loki also said.

"It looks like that, but it shouldn't be that simple."

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Kizmel, who was left alone by the commander, walked out. Xia Tian noticed that there was a small instruction flag in Kizmel's hand.

"If there is nothing else important, let's set off now?" Kizmel also spoke at this time.

Seeing this, the four of them looked at each other and nodded.

Following Kizmel, everyone walked out of the camp.

"Speaking of which, Kizmel, apart from the frictions with the forest elves that you and Ellilo experienced, have you, the night elves, ever had more intense battles with the forest elves? For example, attacking each other's camps or something?" Xia Tian asked, following behind Kizmel, who was using flags to strengthen the effects of spells around the camp.

If the night elves themselves have experience in large-scale battles with the forest elves, then extracting some information from Kizmel now would definitely be beneficial in achieving the critical goal.

Hearing Xia Tian's question, Kizmel paused for a moment, then replied, "Yes."

Noticing the sadness in Kizmel's tone, Xia Tian did not ask directly, but waited silently.

"When we first came down to this level last month, we had a battle with the forest elves. This was the only battle we had with them after arriving at this level."

Down to this floor? Does that mean Kizmel and the other night elves in the camp came down from a higher floor?

But... can it continue all the way to the eighth level of the large-scale battle mission?... It's not surprising...

If there is a chance, I would like to get information about the upper floors from Kizmel. Given her status, the information she knows should be official information that is not part of the closed beta test.

While Xia Tian was thinking, Kizmel had already continued speaking.

"The battle at that time caused great losses to both of us. My sister, Tilnel, also lost her life in that battle."

younger sister?

Xia Tian remembered that when they were fighting the poisonous spiders, Kizmel praised Asuna and also mentioned her own sister.

"Is Kizmel's sister also... a knight?" Kirito, who also sensed Kizmel's sadness, asked tentatively.

Shaking his head, Kizmel continued: "Tilnel, my sister is a pharmacist. It is her job to treat the wounded on the battlefield. Because of this, my sister does not have any combat skills. She has only used a short sword that is slightly longer than a dagger. At that time, the rear troops she was in were attacked by the eagle messenger of the forest elves..." Kizmel stopped here and did not continue.

The Eagle Envoys of the Forest Elves, Xia Tian, ​​who had also stayed in the Night Elves camp for a while, had some knowledge about this. Ellilo, who was rescued with N and the others yesterday, was a Wolf Envoy in the Night Elves camp, that is, a Wolf Rider, a powerful force that could control the strong Night Wolf to launch a surprise attack. Just like the Night Elves had Wolf Envoys, the Forest Elves must also have a corresponding force, the Eagle Envoys. In Xia Tian's opinion, compared to the Wolf Envoys, the Eagle Envoys who could launch a surprise attack from the sky were obviously more difficult to deal with.

Attack the rear?

"I'm sorry for reminding you of such unpleasant things." Xia Tian apologized in a low voice.

“It’s okay.” Kizmel’s tense face relaxed a little, and she continued, “In fact, before you guys rescued me, I had already prepared myself to die. No, maybe I was expecting this kind of ending at that time, and I would die together with that forest elf.” At this point, Kizmel smiled softly, “But fortunately you showed up and saved my life. This may be the guidance of the gods, although gods should no longer exist in this world.”

From this point of view, there is no need to worry about Kizmel. When it comes to dealing with forest elves, she is definitely more stable than Loki and his men. Not only her, but other night elves must be like this. And if other players really help the forest elves, they will surely be merciless.

After hearing what Kizmel said, Xia Tian smiled with satisfaction in his heart.

However, it should be noted that the forest elves must have the same attitude.

“It’s not the guidance of any god. We all appeared in that place by our own will. So don’t worry, we will always be with you until the end.” As expected of Kirito, he is now wantonly exuding his personality charm and gentleness as the protagonist.

And because of Kirito's statement, Kizmel also smiled with relief and nodded.

"Then, I will always protect you."

"It's really touching, the promise made between players and NPCs." At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

Everyone's expression changed and they turned their heads at the same time. Just a few dozen meters to the side, as if they suddenly appeared there, six figures slowly emerged from the fog. Five of them were wearing gray-black cloaks that tightly concealed their figures, and behind them was a tall figure wearing gold and green armor.

"Forest elves!"
