"Thur! Be careful!"

Nanni threw a arrow for the elf, but she was almost scalded by the fire of the demon above.Searle quickly used elven magic to extinguish the flames for her, and some blamed: "You don't care about me! I can extinguish these flames, but you can't."

The Cavaliers grinned at him.

"The body is faster than the brain. Speaking of which, only the magic of the elves is effective against the demon flames. Fortunately, we brought all the elves who are good at using magic this time, otherwise we don't know how to deal with these demon flames. By the way." She asked, "You have good eyesight, how is the battle going?"

The elf looked away.

"The number of demons is not very large, and the situation is under our control." Immediately, Searle frowned again, but he didn't feel at ease.

The orcs sent information that the duergars would unite with demons to attack their village.The orcs turned to Thur for help and used it as a request to form an ally.Searle agreed to the request of the orcs and brought most of the troops to help, leaving only a thousand elves and assassin Bailey to stay in White Rose City.The large-scale invasion of demons is about to begin, and he hopes to reduce one enemy and gain one more ally before the big war.But now, the situation is not as he thought before.

It is true that demons and gray dwarves are attacking orcs, but the number is far less than what is reported.It can be said that this battle ended too easily.The elf had a bad premonition in his heart.

At this moment, the scouts in charge of the vigilance exclaimed.

"not good!"

"White Rose City is on fire!"

The elves immediately climbed up and looked into the distance, and in the distance, the White Rose City burned by the flames of the devil looked like a blood-red rose soaked in blood.The elves stared blankly, and someone knelt down on the ground, scalding the snow with hot tears rolling down.

-

"Wow, so many statues."

After entering the city, Archie opened his mouth exaggeratedly and looked around.

"I didn't realize last time that there are so many statues of elves on the streets of White Rose City."

Paladins rode quietly around him on horseback.Archie observed for a while, and then said depressedly: "But there are so many statues here, but there is not even a single elf."

He said: "Although Vann City is far away from the Western Sea of ​​Trees, there have been occasional visits by elves in recent years. Even a border city in the Southern Freedom League has many half-elves. But here, this human city, There are so many statues of elves, and not a single half-elf."

Eddie spoke softly as an explanation: "These statues are not ordinary elves, but Lord Sarandir."

Archie looked at him in astonishment: "Is it... because of the battle at the foot of the orcs?"

Eddie nodded: "Without the protection of Lord Sarandeer and the elves, the city of White Rose would have fallen under the attack of demons. That's why the residents of this city built sculptures to commemorate them. But after all, it is It is normal for no elves to come to a place of mourning for the dead."

When he said this, he remembered Yvonne's warning from the Holy One of Light, never mentioning the past in front of Salanduil.Lord Salanduel is unwilling to enter the city with them, is it also because of these pasts?

"Sure enough!" Archie leaned over and whispered to Eddie, "I knew things were weird. That Estes said that a thousand elves died in the Battle of the Orc Foothills, but the records in human history books I read since I was a child But none of them mentioned these things. Isn’t it a bit too strange that they build statues to commemorate, but don’t mention them to future generations in history?”

At this time, Red seemed to be smart, and said: "What's so strange? Building a statue only costs a few stones, but writing it into the history books is equivalent to telling future generations that they will always owe a thousand lives to the elves. Such a large favor, who is willing to publicly admit it?"

Archie's eyes widened as if he was meeting him for the first time.

Eddie nodded and said, "If I hadn't read the relevant classics after coming to the holy city, I wouldn't know about it. But I think there may be other reasons for the human kingdom to hide this matter. The orcs also joined our camp to fight against the demons. For the orcs, the battle at the foot of the orcs was a shame, and they naturally don't want it to be recorded in the history books of mankind. I am afraid that there is also an exchange of interests after the alliance between the two parties. "

"So in order to form an alliance with the orcs, humans put aside the elves who sacrificed for them? And then pretend to build a few statues to commemorate it?" Reid said disdainfully, "Although I don't like elves, but humans who do this are even more despicable .”

"At that time, the War to Exorcise Demons was a fierce battle. In order to survive, maybe there is nothing that cannot be exchanged for human beings." Yvonne said lightly, his tone seemed to exclude himself from the category of human beings.Of course, paladins are no longer considered ordinary humans.

"Speaking of the elves, didn't Estes start off before us? Why didn't we see them?" Reid asked.

"The elves don't want to enter White Rose City, maybe they won't show up until Lord Salanduil enters the city," Eddie said.

Archie said at this time: "Hey, have you noticed? From just now, I have a creepy feeling of being stared at. Are we being followed?"

Eddie touched his nose: "Is there? I don't feel it."

Yvonne Yuma, the leader of the paladin squad, took a step forward and said calmly: "The archbishop just disappeared, and the news that we set off from the Holy City has also spread across the mainland. Now we have arrived at the White Rose City. No matter which force will watch our next step action."

Archie nodded, secretly thinking that it makes sense.At the same time, he glanced at the ignorant Eddie again, hey, no wonder some people can become small captains, but some people can only make friends with the silly red dragon.Sure enough, this is talent.

This time, the paladins lived in a church of the Church of Light in White Rose City. After they settled down, Yvonne took people to inquire about the disappearance of the archbishop.Leave Eddie in the church with the red dragon and the little mage.

"Hey, Red, where's the sword?" Archie asked strangely when he saw that Red didn't have the long sword that he always carried behind his back.

"That is Sarandir's sword, of course it has been returned to its original owner." The red dragon boy said, "Before he left, he asked me to take it away."

Archie frowned: "But considering Salanduil's strength, even without the sword, it won't make much difference. Why did he ask you to take the sword away before coming to White Rose City?"

"That's his stuff. It's strange that he wants to go."

Archie shook his head.

Salanduil had stayed in Wind Rising City for so many days before, and he never thought of asking Red to get back the long sword. This time, he asked for the saber back before Rose City. No matter how you think about it, it's weird.He inadvertently looked at Eddie, but saw the young paladin's expression suddenly became tense.

"Do you know something?" the sensitive mage apprentice asked immediately.

"I..." Eddie hesitated, "Didn't I read the classics in the church that recorded the battle at the foot of the Orcs? In fact, there is a special section in that record, about Lord Sarandeer."

"What happened to him?" Archie demanded.

"He's crazy." Eddie said in a daze, "He really seemed crazy at that time. White Rose City was attacked by demons, and most of the guarding elves and his partners were killed. Occasionally, the few who didn't die, It was also played by the demons as a prize and then discarded at the foot of the orc. You know, the foot of the orc is the territory of the orcs. I heard..."

He swallowed his saliva and continued: "I heard that some surviving elves were picked up by some orc tribes and raised as slaves. After Lord Sarandeer heard about this, he, he went to find them alone. These orc tribes, slaughtered them all."

Archie Bailey felt cold sweat pouring out of his back, and the red dragon Reid blew a whistle.

"That's right, revenge must be revenged! What happened next?"

"Once other orc tribes heard about this, no matter whether they detained the elves privately or not, they did not dare to admit it again. Lord Sarandir still refused to let them go, and went to the door one by one. The orcs are about to be slaughtered by him."

Archie was silent for a while.He has seen Syl who climbed the window into the classroom like a child, and Sarandir who is cold and serious, but he has never seen Sarandir who slaughtered an entire race without blinking an eye.He couldn't believe it, that's what Sarandiel would do.

However, the mage apprentice still asked calmly: "He wasn't an Eli paladin at that time, right? An ordinary elf ranger, no matter how powerful he is, how did he manage to slaughter so many orc tribes and still get away unscathed?"

Eddie shook his head: "Although my lord hadn't made a contract with Eli at that time, he seemed to be able to use part of his divine power. By the way, I heard that a mysterious woman had been following him. Later, Lord Sarandeer She was the one who sent him back when he fainted due to lack of energy. Afterwards, the War to Exorcise Demons broke out across the continent, and Lord Sarandeer was busy with the war. However, it is said that he did not give up on finding the missing elves until the end of the war.”

"Who is that woman?"

Eddie shook his head in disbelief.

"Then this time, Salanduel asked Red to return his saber in front of the White Rose City..."

Archie and Eddie looked at each other, and they had a bad feeling about each other.

"Oops, he doesn't want to continue to finish what he didn't finish back then!"

……

Searle stared coldly at the man standing in front of him.

"You're in the way."

"No," said the mage who blocked his way, "I'm trying to keep you from going crazy."

The elf's silver eyes looked at the mage, and behind him were the star sand grass and the "requiem tree" that had just been watered.

"What do you think I'm going to do? What can you stop me from doing?" he taunted the mage.

"No matter what you want to do." Bo Xien felt a strange emotion fermenting in his chest, like sadness, like anger, even when he was abandoned by that man named father back then, even when he was abandoned by those ugly He has never been in such a situation when many people are forced into a desperate situation of self-loathing and world-weariness.These emotions can only appear when facing this unruly elf in front of him.He tried to ignore, tried to escape, but ultimately failed.

And now, after witnessing the silent sacrifice of the elves in front of the grave of their dead friends, this feeling can no longer be ignored.

Bethian thought mockingly, maybe he shouldn't look at Olivier's memory.Then he would not know the elf's past, nor mourn his sorrow.

Finally he heard himself say it.

"Wherever you're going, take me with you. This is what I want."
