Chapter 120

"Presumptuous, let me shoot arrows!" The third elder blushed at Afra's words, but couldn't find anything to refute her. He shook his sleeves and yelled at the elves.

"Third Elder, what are you doing?" Augustine roared loudly, and the rest of the elves also heard their conversation just now, and they all picked up their bows, but they were still unwilling to shoot their arrows.

"It's the other way around, don't shoot fast!" The third elder shouted.

The elves, you look at me, I look at you, they all closed their eyes in the end, and drew their bows with all their strength, only to hear the swishing sound, and the green arrows shot towards the dozen people in the trap.

Seeing that this group of people was about to be stabbed into a hornet's nest, Corey jumped up with a roar, drew out his knife, and danced in the air quickly, blocking the flying arrows coming from all directions.

As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands, let alone thousands of flying arrows. Soon Corey was hit by an arrow in the arm, and his speed also slowed down significantly.

"Captain, let's go!" The mercenaries shouted loudly, took out their weapons, and slashed upwards fiercely, trying to destroy the net and get out. However, the net was made of unknown material and how to cut it Also chop constantly.

Soon, Corey was also shot in the leg by an arrow, and it seemed that he would not be able to hold on.

Suddenly a strong wind blew on the flat ground, swept all the flying arrows into a bundle, and all the arrows fell to the ground with a snap.

Just before everyone came to their senses, the strong wind seemed to have self-awareness, hovering above the trap, and then formed a vortex, directly rolling the net into the air.

The mercenaries immediately got up in a hurry.

"Quick, kill them!" The third elder shouted angrily.Seeing this, the mercenaries also picked up their weapons and rushed forward.

Hearing the sound, the elves raised their bows again, but in the next second, a large piece of ice suddenly appeared on the ground, with a radius of hundreds of miles around, instantly turning into a world of ice and snow.

"Stop it all!" Aphra jumped onto a big tree next to her and shouted loudly.

"Whoever does it again, I will not be polite!" In an instant, a small flame burst out from her fingertips.

"Magician!" exclaimed the elves, and they all stopped and looked at her.

"As far as I know, they came to the forest of elves for the first time, and they didn't hurt any elves. You don't have any reason to take their lives! The elves are not the cleanest, purest, and kindest in the world. Creatures? Are you worthy of this title for killing innocent people like this?"

"With the help of humans, otherwise how could Harley succeed in rebelling?" an elf retorted unconvinced.

"If Harley didn't lure wolves into the house, would humans have an opportunity to take advantage of it? If it weren't for some elves who were greedy for glory and wealth and took refuge in Harley, would the rebellion in the elf forest be possible? Both humans and elves have some corrupt elements, but most of the rest They are full of justice and loyalty. Along the way, I walked with this group of mercenaries. They never bullied the weak, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and even offered to give me a ride when they saw a strange woman. In the face of danger, all People are considerate and help each other, don't you admit that their hearts are kind?" Aphra asked sharply.

The elves all lowered their heads and remained silent.

"Let's go! I promise you, they won't hurt an elf, otherwise, I will make sure they won't see the sun tomorrow!" Seeing that no one spoke, Aphra finally gave the order to drive away.

"No, please be the master of the elves!" Suddenly the elves knelt down and shouted in unison.

"What can I do for you?" Aphra smiled, although her goal from the beginning was to rescue the Elf Queen and these innocent people.But when it comes to calling the shots, forget it, she's not some sort of Virgin Mary.

"Actually, there is a reason why we intercepted and killed these mercenary teams on the way." The third elder smiled bitterly, "We all know the mission sent by Prince Harley, but what Prince Harley doesn't know is that if the mercenaries really Successfully obtained the holy wood, it will be a disaster for our elves."

"How do you say that?" Isn't it just a piece of wood.

"Holy wood is actually a special plant in the depths of the Elf Forest. This plant is the two holy objects of the Elf Forest just like the Fountain of Life. If the Fountain of Life is destroyed, the Elf Forest will lose all its water sources , if the holy wood is destroyed, the forest of elves will lose all the plants. So we will stop you on the way."

"Yes, what the third elder said is all the truth." Afraid that Aphra would not believe it, Augustine hurried out to clarify.

"Then what happened to that piece before? Didn't you tell Harley about this?" Aphra frowned, her beautiful brows frowned.

"The sacred wood will grow new branches every 500 years, so you can take a piece of wood every 500 years. Prince Harry thought it was a trick we used to deceive him, so he still insisted on going his own way." The third elder said helplessly.

"Then you want me to stop them?" Aphra quickly understood the group's intentions.

"Your performance just now is obvious to all of us. We can't find such a powerful magician in the elves, so please, help us, all the elves will cooperate with you. And I offended you just now, let you do whatever you want , I won't have any complaints!" After saying this, the third elder bent his knees back, lowered his head, and knelt on the ground.

Seeing this, the rest of the elves also knelt on the ground: "Please help us!"

"Get up! I promise you!" Aphra closed her eyes in pain, unable to bear to watch this scene, how the pure, brave, and kind elves fell into this situation.

"Thank you!" The third elder said gratefully, "All the elves will listen to your orders in the future."

Aphra waved her hand and stopped him from continuing to speak: "I, as the granddaughter of Queen Eve, am obliged to help her guard this land, so you don't have to be grateful to me, all of this is my duty. Third Elder , you take the elves and go, don’t meddle in this matter, let me handle it!”

"However, how can you do it alone? Let us all go with you, besides these elves, we have thousands of other elves, many people are powerful..." Although Aphra is very strong, but the three The elder didn't think she could deal with so many humans alone.

"Third Elder, do as I say, and I promise you that humans will never destroy the sacred tree!" Aphra said loudly.

"Well, if you need help with anything, just blow this whistle." Seeing that she had made up her mind, the third elder took out a green whistle from her pocket and handed it to Aphra.

"Okay, if anyone needs help, I will definitely blow this whistle. Find a safe place to stay. After this matter is resolved, I will rescue the queen with you." Aphra did not refuse his kindness , accepted the whistle.

"Lan... Aphra, let me follow you. I know the terrain of the Elven Forest better, and maybe I can help you." All the elves left one after another, only Augustine was still lingering in place.

"No need, Augustine, you can go too!" A strange light flashed in Aphra's green eyes, and a plan took shape in her mind.

"Well, be careful." Augustine was not discouraged when he was rejected, he smiled gently, then turned around and flashed into the woods.

"Captain Corey, you heard what we said just now. From now on, we will be enemies and not friends. Let's separate here. The next time we meet, either you or I will die. I hope we will never meet again." Ah Fulla glanced at everyone in the mercenary group one by one, the reluctance in her eyes flashed away.

"Aphra..." Claire shouted loudly. When Aphra turned his head, he didn't know what to say, his lips were tightly pressed, and his eyes were full of reluctance.

"Goodbye!" Aphra smiled at him movingly, turned around, and left without looking back.

"Captain!" The mercenaries all looked at Corey.

"Hey, that's all!" Corey flicked his sleeves and quickly chased after him.

"Aphra, wait!"

"Captain Corey, is there anything else?" Aphra turned around, staring at him closely with her clear green eyes.

"I, you come with us, let us help you protect the holy wood!" Gritting his teeth, Corey stomped his feet fiercely, finally making up his mind.

"Yes, Aphra, you saved our lives several times, now it's time for us to pay back!" The rest of the mercenaries also said in unison.

"Thank you, but it's your mission?" After all, they still have their superiors. If they do this, they will definitely be severely punished if they return to the mercenary group in the future.

"It's okay, I plan to report this matter to the deputy head. Even if the commission is completed, the elf forest will be barren by then. Who else would want to come to the elf forest? So don't worry." Corey He twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled, but the smile was a bit far-fetched and didn't reach his eyes.

"Okay, then I'll go with you to convince your deputy head!" Aphra nodded, but she was thinking in her heart, if the deputy head is stubborn and an old-fashioned person, I can force him by force. .

"Yeah, that's great!" Claire jumped up happily, and the rest of the mercenaries also shouted when they saw this, and finally lifted Claire up and threw it into the air.

Aphra looked at the reaction of the group of mercenaries with amused expression, and felt a touch of emotion in her heart.People who met by chance can do so much for her. It is worthwhile to have such a friend in life.

Because of the fright just now, although they knew that Aphra was there and the elves would not run out to deal with them, the speed of the group accelerated a lot.

After four days of walking in the forest, they finally arrived at the place where the three major mercenary regiments were temporarily stationed.Along the way, they also encountered all kinds of strange spirit beasts and suffered a lot.
