Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 217 Fierce Battle

Colton Edwards followed the traces left by the high elves and rushed towards the direction of "Summer Harbor".

This master hunter had superb hunting skills. Through the messy traces, he could accurately infer many things, such as the number and quality of the high elf troops.

"The number is quite impressive, at least 1,500 high elves, and the quality should be pretty good too, all elite troops."

This is the information Colton Edwards obtained. Of course, it is not particularly accurate, but it is very scary to be able to obtain this information based on some messy traces, or processed messy traces.

Colton Edwards rushed all the way without any hesitation, even though he knew that the other side had more people and more power, but he was confident in himself and knew that he could kill as many people as came.

It didn't take long for Colton Edwards to find Summer Harbor.

"Midsummer Port" is located between the high elf city "Silverleaf Port" and "Wangbo Port" in the "Sword Bay area". This large and relatively flat beach is named "Sunshine Coast". Although it is quite uncomfortable to have the "Sunshine Coast" under the influence of the "Vampire Clan", this area does have a bit of that flavor.

Speaking of the scenery alone, the "Sunshine Coast" has very good views, with plenty of sunshine all day long. I don't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for the "blood clan", but for ordinary people, this is a good place.

"Sunshine Coast" naturally comes with "sunny beach". The beach in "Summer Port" is very good, better than the beaches in most places. It's a pity that no one has the time to appreciate it yet.

The entire "Midsummer Harbor" is now in a state of disrepair, so everyone naturally needs to work together to complete Granny Oak's plan first.

In the entire "Shengxia Port", everyone is busy and no one can rest. Even the elderly, the weak, women and children are trying their best to help.

There was no way out. They also wanted a house to live in. Things had come to this point. There was no need for them to refuse to cooperate. Lyle did not torture them. Instead, he wanted to take them to build the city together. There was no reason for them to continue to resist Lyle.

After all, for these low-level people like them, it doesn't matter which lord they follow. If the original lord dies, they will just follow the new lord who is more powerful.

Besides, the policy proposed by Lyle was attractive enough. Although they didn't know whether it could be fulfilled in the end, at least there was hope, which was better than being detained forever.

Overall, Lyle's management of these 12,000 people was very successful. He successfully appeased these people, injected motivation into their work, and painted a big picture for them.

Of course, it cannot be said that it is just empty talk. The conditions he gave out have been fully implemented, at least in "Wangbo Port".

So it is certain that those policies will be implemented in "Shengxia Port".

Otherwise, the people of "Shengxia Port" would definitely feel that it was unfair, and they would definitely be eager to move to "Wangbo Port". If that kind of thing really happened, Lyle would have to commit seppuku to apologize.

"Sniff sniff~"

Not far from "Midsummer Harbor", Colton Edwards moved his nose. He could smell the scent of humans and high elves, and there were many of them. This was a human colony.

"Okay, okay, with so many people and high elves here, I will definitely be able to hold an extremely grand sacrifice! My God will definitely be satisfied! He will definitely give me more divine blessings!"

After arriving near Summer Harbor, the insane Colton Edwards suddenly forgot his true purpose. Rescue? Was that even possible? If so, who? His loyal subordinates had all been killed.

That's right, the core hunters under Colton Edwards were all killed when the high elves destroyed their stronghold. Now those who are left and surrendered are all marginal figures, and Colton Edwards doesn't care about them at all.

"Whoosh!"

Just as Colton Edwards was planning how to destroy the colony, a sharp arrow shot out from the woods and headed straight for his forehead. The arrow was moving very fast and was flashing a green light, which was obviously poisonous.

"Well done!"

Colton Edwards dodged the green arrow, but the arrow suddenly exploded as it passed in front of his eyes, and the entire arrow quickly collapsed.

The arrow fragments burst out and exploded in all directions. Countless sharp arrows smeared with poison were like flowers scattered from the sky.

"Buzz!"

At such a close distance, it exploded almost right in Colton Edwards' face, and the possibility of him dodging it was very slim.

As it turned out, Colton Edwards was indeed unable to dodge, but he at least made some emergency avoidance measures, such as continuous rolling to increase his distance, and using non-critical parts to protect critical parts.

In short, this sudden attack did cause some damage to Colton Edwards, but the poison did not take effect.

Obviously, Colton Edwards's resistance to poison is also very high. Although he has only been in the "New World" for a short time, Colton Edwards has obviously adapted to the "New World" and has even studied the poisons in the "New World".

"The High Elf Ranger is indeed worthy of his reputation."

After being shot by an arrow, Colton Edwards was not angry. He licked his tongue and became more and more looking forward to this hunt.

In the forest not far away, the high elf ranger Solo Morningstar stood on a thick branch with a longbow in his hand. His emerald pupils reflected the man opposite him with a huge sword on his shoulder. He could smell the fishy smell of Colton Edwards even from such a distance.

"Whoosh!"

Solo Morningstar shot another arrow, but this time it was shot into the sky.

"Snapped!"

The arrow exploded in the air, making a loud noise. It was a signal arrow used to notify companions of enemy invasion.

"Let me see what you can do."

Although he had informed his companions of the enemy invasion, Solo Morningstar did not want to retreat and reunite with his companions. He wanted to deal with the enemy himself. As the leader of the rangers, he had been living very uncomfortably these days. He actually did not want to leave the "High Elf Islands" or leave Iseng, as that was his home.

Unfortunately, his family members chose to leave, and Solo Morningstar had no choice but to follow them to the "New World".

So many days have passed, and Solo Morningstar has been fighting non-stop with Okanina, but he has not yet found a sense of belonging in the "New World", and he has been in a very irritable mood.

The moon pattern on the silver armor glowed coldly, and Solo Morningstar, with a stern face, launched another attack on Colton Edwards.

Three star arrows were nocked on the longbow, with the moonlight of Eilistraee flowing through the arrowheads. It was obvious that one of the important reasons why Solo Morningstar had no sense of belonging was that he was not actually a believer of the "Prince of Starlight", which made him a little out of place.

Thoro Morningstar was a follower of Eilistraee, and surface elves could certainly worship Eilistraee as well. After all, the Dark Elf Moon Goddess's portfolio included song, beauty, dance, swordsmanship, hunting, and moonlight. She was also kind, and many hunters and elves also believed in her. Colton Edwards didn't wait for Thoro Morningstar to attack again. He led the charge, the fishy wind from the drag of his greatsword ripping the ground as his crimson eyes locked onto his target.

However, before Colton Edwards could take a few steps, Solo Morningstar's moonlight arrow whizzed towards him.

The first arrow pierced Colton Edwards' left shoulder, forcing his charge trajectory to deviate and his entire body to tilt. It can be seen that the force of this arrow was so great that it abruptly blocked the charge.

The second arrow followed closely, splitting into seven silver lights in mid-air, blocking Colton Edwards's evasive angle.

The third arrow was the most deadly, it went straight to the heart!
However, Colton Edwards reacted quickly. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the arrow shaft before the arrow hit him!
“Fancy!”

Colton Edwards broke the arrow directly, and wood chips mixed with blood splashed out. His hand was obviously injured by the arrow.

"Nothing more than that!"

Colton Edwards continued to rush towards Solo Morningstar. He had transformed into a werewolf. With a big leap, he slashed at Solo with the giant sword "Hunger".

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Solo Morningstar pulled the longbow in his hand, and star arrows shot out in succession. Colton Edwards, who was jumping in the air, was like a living target, allowing him to continue shooting.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

Colton Edwards swung the giant sword and protected himself tightly. He had already felt the power of the arrows of this high elf ranger, and naturally did not want to be shot by the other party again.

"boom!"

Colton Edwards successfully crashed into the tree and cut it down with one sword, forcing Solo Morningstar to fall back to the ground.

"Your bow and arrows are useless, elf-child!"

Colton Edwards bared his teeth, his skin oozing with the scent of excited animal glands before the hunt, and he was obviously very excited.

"boom!"

Colton Edwards, in werewolf form, pounced towards Solo Morningstar and slashed down on Solo Morningstar's head with his giant sword.

However, Solo Morningstar did not sit still and wait for death. He dropped his longbow, drew out his elven double swords, and directly blocked the attack. The sparks from the collision of the swords ignited the surrounding leaves.

"boom!"

As expected, Solo Morningstar was chopped and sent flying. In terms of strength, he was obviously far behind Colton Edwards. Although he also possessed great strength, it depended on who he was compared with. This aspect was obviously also Colton Edwards' strong point.

"Ha, you longbow players are certainly quite strong."

Colton Edwards was actually a little surprised. He thought that this elf ranger might be quite strong, after all, the force of those arrows was indeed very great, but he didn't expect him to be so strong. If he changed into his normal form, he might be on par with the other party.

"You elf cubs are indeed very good prey!"

Colton Edwards laughed wildly. The stronger Solo Morningstar performed, the more he liked it. Only prey like this could satisfy his god.

"It's still unclear who the prey is."

Solo Morningstar's voice was as cold as an ice blade, but he did seem to be showing off when he said that, because his hands were shaking a little.

"Come on then! Let me see your strength!"

Colton Edwards roared, the blessing of Maral, the "God of Hunting", boiling in his veins. His finger bones grew into wolf claws, and he tore off the animal tooth necklace from his neck and crushed it.

In the corruption area, plants within a radius of a hundred feet instantly withered and died, turning into blood-sucking thorns that completely enveloped the battlefield.

He saw all the little moves of Solo Morningstar just now. The ranger summoned his companions to beat him up together. Colton Edwards was not stupid. He directly surrounded the battlefield. Later, this would be his home battlefield, and he would wait here for those elves to come and die.

Colton Edwards cut open his palm and smeared the blood on the sword. The giant sword "Hunger" ignited black fire, and he rushed towards Solo Morningstar again.

Solo Morningstar shook his arms, and his two swords, "Morning Dew" and "Evening Frost", made a buzzing sound. This follower of the "God of Hunting" was very powerful. He was indeed reckless, but he would not retreat.

"Qiang!"

The sharp blades collided again. Solo Morningstar tried his best to block it, but was still chopped back step by step. He should not have fought like this, but should have used his agility to engage with the opponent.

But Solo Morningstar had no choice. The incubation field set up by Colton Edwards entangled his steps and made it impossible for him to play to his strengths. He could only fight head-on.

"Hunt!"

Colton Edwards' wolf head kept roaring and drooling, which was disgusting to watch. This guy had muscular build and extremely violent strength, and Solo Morningstar couldn't stop him at all.

"Ahhh!"

Solo Morningstar roared and swung his two swords continuously, but he was fighting very passively. The silver armor on his body had been chopped into pieces, revealing the muscles underneath. The elf ranger was indeed not thin at all, and his strength was indeed very strong, otherwise he would not have been able to hold on until now.

"Qiang!"

In another fight, Solo Morningstar was no longer able to hold on. One of his knives was knocked away. His hands were so exhausted that he couldn't even hold the knife in his hand.

"Is that all?! Elf boy!"

Seeing this, Colton Edwards taunted him. He swung his sword and struck Solo Morningstar, leaving a deep wound on his chest.
Blood splattered and Solo Morningstar took a few steps back. He stuck the long knife in his hand into the ground and barely managed to stand.

"Is that the end?"

Solo Morningstar smiled. This result didn't seem unacceptable to him. Wasn't it a soldier's fate to die on the battlefield?
