Chapter 7 The Foreign Messenger (Part 2) Reform
"Don't be nervous, I'm not an enemy." Moya said while using the night elf sign language she had just learned. At night, night elf with night vision can see more clearly what she wants to express.
Because he lurks underground all year round, night elves with thermal sensing night vision have invented sign language that can replace sounds to communicate when encountering enemies or being unable to speak.
"Although it's very presumptuous, we have a heavy responsibility, so please tell your identity and intention." After looking at each other, the male elf who spoke before spoke spoke again, Moya was sure that he was the leader of this group of outsiders. The hierarchy of the night elves is extremely strict. In front of nobles with higher positions or status than him, civilians and slaves cannot speak at will without permission. Such impolite behavior sometimes punishes the loss of life.
Helplessly, untied the black cloak, which marked that the priests of the war priests were more convincing than words.
"I'm so rude, Lord High Priest (Note: All high-level priests can be called this). Sktor greets you on behalf of the 90,000 Ice Tribes of the Northern Continent, and may the God of Moon and Night be favored forever." The arrogant commander immediately lowered his posture and was disrespectful to the clergy, which means disrespectful to God. Even the night elves, who are known for their arrogance and rebellion, dare not violate this precept.
"The tribes in the north... are the same tribes that broke out during the Great Split a thousand years ago?" I remember that Chief Ji mentioned this. After the split of the night elves with the Truths, the national strength gradually declined. More than half of the civilian tribes were unwilling to be dominated by the nine masters. They took the opportunity to split independently to other continents, and ruled the entire East Continent. The night elves country was officially disintegrated.
"yes."
"So, why do fellow compatriots from afar return to your abandoned hometown?"
Other night elves who had been hiding walked out of the bushes. After rough calculations, there were at least two thousand people, and they all gathered behind Commander Sktor.
"I just want to return to my hometown and rebuild my hometown."
Not long after Moya entered the woods, several sneaky figures also came to behind a rock not far from the woods.
The "Free Wanderer" mercenary group saw Moya and the Twelve Guardians separated at the city gate. They felt strange and followed them all the time - how could a fugitive who had just been captured walk on the street? Could it be that she ran away again?!
When the slim Deredava saw that the city defense was about to take Moya away, she sprinkled some wilted pollen on the ground. This powder has a very similar smell to wine, and will not be discovered if you are not careful. It is a newly developed tracking prop for the thieves. Because the taste is very light and it is difficult to be discovered. It is the most suitable for tracking those who have just left the tavern.
If it weren't for the scent tracking, the few young people who didn't know the height of the sky and the earth would have turned into cold corpses now.
"Where are people?"
"I went in, but I didn't see it, because it should be in the woods."
The smell finally pointed to the woods, but the few mercenaries who were afraid of the rumors of the night elves did not dare to enter.
"What should I do now? The person is lost." Lantoya looked at Eruson and waited for him to make an idea.
"Forget it, let's go back. If you go deeper, you will definitely be discovered."
"Wait, I have a way." Diredava took out a soft object from the bag on her back. It was shaped like a trumpet, one end big and the other end small, dirty and yellow. After putting it on the ground without careful observation, it really couldn't see its existence.
"What is this?" After knowing each other for many years, Su Yi didn't know when his old friend made such a strange thing.
"Cat Ears." Diredava smiled proudly; "It is a special magic prop that thieves specially used to eavesdrop on. I got it from the thief Sto. It only requires mental power to activate it. If we use it, we can know what is being talked about there."
"You might as well change your career and become a thief..."
"Guji Guji"
The cat's ears stretched forward in a twisty manner. After one of the smaller ends penetrated into the woods, the other side eavesdropping trumpets emitted a not-so-clear conversation.
At this time, it was when Moya revealed her identity.
"What's going on? The sound is too small?"
"Dile, why can't I understand?"
Except for the dwarf Lar who often stood next to the night elves, who could barely understand a few words, the rest of them were all mist.
"Do you understand what you said?" Lantoya looked at her companions beside her, and they all shook their heads to show that they were the same mist.
"Well, they use the more popular Night Elf Words, I can probably understand a little, wait." The dwarf signaled everyone not to panic and wait for him to listen.
"Ever since eight months ago, when Lamuji sensed that the Dark Moon Tower had risen to the ground, our tribe has begun to prepare for return. Now, except for some of them still stranded outside the Northern Continent, most of the members of the Ice Tribe have landed. We will set off from the desert immediately after our advance troops have obtained permission from the Night Capital."
"You mean, most of the Ice Tribe of 90,000 have arrived in the Eastern Continent?"
"Yes, it's in the desert connected to the bay." Sktor's words moved Moya and the twelve guardians at the same time.
"We went north along the desert, and saw it besieged by a large number of orcs after passing a small town made of white rocks, and then came to the city to find a way to enter the Night Capital."
White Rose Town was attacked by orcs!!
Bilfitt... In an instant, Moya suddenly had the idea of leaving everything aside and running to White Rose.
Thirty years of prison life, if it weren't for his repeated assistance, a woman who was cast by a "forbidden spell" without a tough background and not cruel enough, would not be able to survive in a lower-level prison. If there is anything else in the world that can allow her to preserve the conscience that humans should have, then there is only Bilfit, the only relative. Although they are not related by blood, for Moya, he is her only relative and her only younger brother.
But even if you can give up everything in the past eight months to go to Bai Qiangwei, how can you turn the situation around? With the magical artifact in your hand, it is still unknown how to use it, and of course it is useless. Unless... you can get support from the Senate and the Temple, but even then the patriarchs of the Nine Great Family are willing to flow the blood of their soldiers on Bai Qiangwei meaninglessly, just to fight for a meaningless prison...
"What a pity, that town is a natural fortress, which can be both independent and echo the Night City. After digging the underground passage, it will transport soldiers continuously. Unless it encounters a million troops, it will be impossible to capture such a military fortress without the awareness of blood flowing into a river. If I had not shouldered the heavy responsibility of finding Night City, I would have led the Ice Tribe to repel the orcs and give it to all the compatriots in Night City as a gift for return."
Sktor's words woke Moya up, who was worried about how to save his younger brother Bilfit. She immediately made a decision and immediately took these ice tribes into the night capital. If Sktor's words were proposed, perhaps the elders and the chief sacrifice might agree to this proposal.
"How is it?" Seeing Ralph's old frown, Eruson asked worriedly.
"It was said too quickly, but there were words such as priests on the north and the ground."
"What, that's all? What's the difference between not hearing it?"
"No, enough, let's go back. This is very important information. Maybe the night elves are planning to return to the ground."
Several novice mercenaries who were determined to eavesdrop on other people's conversations did not notice it. Not far from the bushes where they were hiding, a group of them were approaching the black shadows.
"careful!!"
Seeing the cold light emitted by the weapon, Sui pulled out the elf sword to block the suddenly slashed axe in time. This made Lantoya dodge the attack that almost cut off half of her head.
"Woo!!" The orc who was blocked from the attack let out an angry roar.
It's an orc!!
How could orcs who were supposed to be in the desert come here? There are quite a lot of them. The black aged in the distance is probably the same as the night elves as Richard said.
"Oh no, will they be discovered by the night elves if they make such a fuss?!" Diredava's worries became a reality in the transmission of the night elves' words.
Hearing the confrontation of weapons, Sktor knew that the patrol guards had fought with the people, and the night elves that came from time to time meant that there were a large number of enemies.
"Welcome the enemy!" Wave your hand to signal the remaining subordinates to enter the enemy who dares to attack the invading ones. The commander of the Ice Tribe must show his strength well and strive to win the favor of the high priest.
Taking advantage of the night elves fighting with the orcs who were originally going to attack Merri City, the lucky "Free Wanderer" mercenary group quietly slipped out of the battlefield.
“What should I do now?”
