Dark Redemption of Elf

Chapter 103: Undercurrent

Richard's eyes turned and fell on Ravel and Glick. Why were two fifth-level powerhouses hostile to the Marquis?

"Who are you two?"

"We are friends of Little Princess Yaolan Lan Keke who met in Thorn City. Because we couldn't understand what Funovich did, we chose to help them." Glick stood up and said: "At this time, they should be near the Sunset Mountains. , and there are nearly two hundred cavalry chasing them."

Richard stared closely into Glick's eyes, as if to confirm the authenticity of his words: "You mean that Her Royal Highness the Princess is being hunted by Fnovic's people? Then who are they referring to?"

"Yes, there are two forest elves and two humans with black hair and black eyes next to your little princess." The humans with black hair and black eyes here are very easy to recognize.

"The Kingdom of Yaolan will definitely thank you for your help." Hearing that the situation was not as bad as expected, Richard took a deep breath and looked towards the distant direction of Thorn City, his eyes flashing slightly.

Regardless of the geographical advantage, in a place as big as a palm, there is not even a single soldier guarding the natural danger of the Emerald River in the south. How dare you launch a rebellion like this? I really don’t know what Fnovovich is thinking.

In fact, there was originally a small country in the Land of Thorns, but it was later annexed by the Kingdom of Yaolan. The Cavalry of Yaolan and the Magician of Yaolan almost turned this rich land into scorched earth. Later, the Kingdom of Swisston in the north also took a fancy to this land. There has been a war with the Yaolan Kingdom for many years.

That war almost destroyed the basin. Finally, with the coordination of the Holy Holy See, the war finally stopped, but the trauma in the Land of Thorns has not yet recovered.

As a native of the land of thorns, Fnovich was promoted and knighted through many military exploits. However, he was suppressed in the aristocratic circle, and the treatment of the soldiers who followed him was naturally not much better.

Finally, he took them back to the land of thorns and worked hard to restore vitality to this incomplete land.

However, the imperial capital is afraid that this remote area will grow too fast and become uncontrollable. Taking advantage of the "fertile land" here, taxes are 10% or 20% higher than other areas of the kingdom. The people in the land of thorns range from commoners to nobles. , all of them resented the imperial capital in their hearts, but with the strength of the army there, it was hard for them to show it.

For lack of a stronger reason, King Felt did not dare to go too far. This kind of exploitation maintained a balance.

But suddenly someone revealed that Fnovic had assassinated a noble of royal blood in the Land of Thorns, and provided some weak evidence. Then King Felt Winston had an idea and was ready to take advantage of this opportunity to suppress the biggest king in the Land of Thorns. The nobles sent people to investigate the assassination.

But this investigation was done under Fnovich's nose, and it was inevitable that it would reach his ears, and the latter immediately felt a sense of panic.

Later, people from the Curse Sect came and used this factor to force Funovich to rebel. Funovich then used the desires of other small nobles in the Land of Thorns to blaspheme the forest elves and destroy the relationship with the Flower Forest. To maintain the relationship with the elves, he would definitely choose to sacrifice these remote and small nobles to further expand his influence.

Anyway, these little nobles broke the law, and the nobles in other places couldn't say much. It happened that the king could legally bring the power of this land into his control.

The irreconcilable contradiction was the reason why the rebellion in the Land of Thorns broke out completely.

In the northern part of the Pingxi Mountains, in the Swisston Kingdom, the Third Snow Leopard Cavalry Corps, commander of the Romida Corps, rode a big brown horse to inspect the temporary camp stationed near the Pingxi Mountains.

The Kingdom of Ruidun is the northernmost human country in the Dawn Continent. It is covered in ice and snow all year round. Therefore, the humanoids in the legion have rough looks, thick body hair, and bold personalities, and Commander Romida is no exception.

It's not long after nightfall, bonfires are scattered everywhere, and there are scattered soldiers wandering around and talking in the camp. When they see the regiment leader inspecting the camp, they all immediately stand up and salute.

"Hello, Captain!"

Lomida waved her hand, indicating that they don't need to be too nervous: "How does it feel here?"

"Report to the regiment commander, it's very good here," the soldiers replied loudly. It seemed that the regiment commander had a very harmonious relationship with the soldiers.

Romexi nodded: "Remember to go to bed early."

"Yes." The soldiers immediately stopped wandering around and returned to their tents to sleep.

"Commander Romeda, with all due respect, why did we come to the north of the Pingxi Mountains? Are we going to launch another war against the Kingdom of Yaolan?" Adjutant Da Vinci, who had been following Romeda, couldn't help but ask. road.

If it were any other commander, he would definitely not ask such an out-of-bounds question, but Romida, the commander of the Third Snow Leopard Knights, was famous for being very kind to his subordinates, and would even sleep in the same tent with him.

Luo Mida sighed slightly: "I don't know this either."

"What?" Adjutant Da Vinci thought he heard wrongly. Three days ago, his superiors suddenly ordered the Third Snow Leopard Knights of the Swisston Kingdom and the 1st and 2nd Polar Infantry Regiments to leave their bases quickly and rush to the northern part of the Pingxi Mountains. Stand still and wait for the next order.

Everything was so without warning, and there had been no special conflicts between the Kingdom of Swisston and the Kingdom of Yaolan recently.

The only major news is that in the land of thorns in the Yaolan Kingdom, which is the Yaolan land in the south of the Pingxi Mountains, it was revealed that some nobles secretly captured forest elves as slaves, which made the relationship between them and the Elf Kingdom very tense.

And exactly two months ago, the ranger troops of the Elf Kingdom negotiated with the high-level officials of the Kingdom of Swisston. A large number of elf rangers passed by the Kingdom of Swisston and searched around the edge of the Despair Forest in the west. They seemed to be looking for a compatriot captured by the dark elves. .

This made Da Vinci very confused. Why would the Elf Kingdom send a large army of rangers across the Kingdom of Switzerland to the Forest of Despair to the west of a missing elf to look for traces of the dark elf?

And where does this news come from? Could it be that they still believe that the dark elves are hiding in the Forest of Despair to the west of Swisston... However, this seems somewhat possible... Who knows?

The location of the Dark Elf's lair has always been a mystery in the eyes of the world. For a while, a dark elf attack occurred on the Ironforge dwarves in the southwest mountains, and for a while, a dark elf attack occurred on the Wind Valley Wings in the southeast corner. Another dark elf attack occurred in the elf kingdom...

There are endless levels of attacks, under the exaggeration of thoughtful people, it seems that the group of dark elves can be everywhere...

Now they are going to start a war with Yaolan Kingdom again, as if there is a big hand controlling everything.

Romida turned her eyes and looked at the Pingxi Mountains in the south. The tragedy of the war more than 20 years ago was still vivid in her mind: "Actually, I don't want a war to happen, but as soldiers, we must obey orders."

Da Vinci shook his head: "My subordinates know that orders sent from above must be obeyed, but I don't want this battle to be fought unclearly."

Luo Mida smiled bitterly: "I want to know too, but Shangfeng is very tight-lipped and doesn't reveal any information at all, especially those nobles. I don't know what they are doing recently... they are mysterious."

"But I feel that this battle shouldn't be fought. It's just a show." Romida suddenly said again.

"Can't fight?" Da Vinci looked confused.

"Otherwise, why only 5 of us were stationed here, and no news was released. I think neither the people in our country nor the people in the Land of Thorns thought that the war was so close to them at this time. "

Luo Mida then laughed at herself: "But who can completely guess this kind of thing..."

The City of Thorns, the Arena, was different from the silence at night in other places. At this time, the audience seats here were brightly lit, the seats were full, and there was a lot of people.

"Break his neck, Sama"

"Kill him, Sama will be the champion!"

Everyone here was blushing and shouting excitedly, looking at a sturdy orc in the center of the huge arena. The orc had a pair of semicircular bear ears, brown hair, was more than 2 meters tall, held a thick double-sided iron ax, and had a pair of blue eyes. Looking down at the mercenaries fighting against him.

The "damn beast" mercenary was breathing heavily, with blood and sweat all over his body, and deep hatred flashing in his eyes. He was none other than the four-man mercenary Trib whom Ayton and the others met in the Pingxi Mountains.

Sama took his time and shrugged his broad shoulders: "Interesting, this is the first time I saw that bastard lord throw a human into the arena for us to slaughter."

"Hmph" Tribe wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Did you also call that Fnovovich a bastard?"

"Of course, among the two thousand clansmen in our arena, who doesn't hate him?" Upon hearing the name Funovich, a ferocious flash flashed in the orc's eyes, and he swung his ax and chopped off Tribu's head.

With a popping sound, Tribu raised his sword to block. The orc's powerful power shocked the mercenary's jaw, and he almost lost his grip on the sword. This blow made people in the audience applaud again and again.

"Sama, I bet you ten gold coins to kill him within five minutes!"

"Kill him, Sama, time is running out."

"Since you hate him," Tribu took a step back, bowed and stabbed Sama in the waist, shouting loudly, "Then why don't you learn to resist!"

Sama ducked sideways and hit Tribe hard in the stomach with a knee kick.

"Ah!" Tribu felt his stomach churning, severe pain passed into his brain, gastric juice mixed with blood spurted out of his mouth, and the sword fell to the ground.

"Despicable human being" Sama grabbed Tribe's neck with one hand and lifted him up. They looked at each other and both could see the unwillingness in his eyes: "It's all because of that bastard that our raccoon tribe can only be reduced to this state." In this damn arena, you are surrounded by life and death all day long, for you despicable humans to play and watch like monkeys."

A strong feeling of suffocation came to his heart. Tribu tried his best to slap his thick arms, but he was too weak to cause any harm to them. Suddenly, a force came from his neck, and his whole body was thrown five meters away and hit hard. to the turbid ground, stirring up a large cloud of dust.

"Good fight, kill him, break his neck"

Although there was no famous neck-breaking scene that they were most looking forward to, the audience was still excited. In their opinion, the outcome was decided at this time.

In this world, civilization is too backward. With money and power, the nobles will always need some way to vent their excess energy, so the slave arena industry came into being.

The gladiators successfully attracted the attention of a large number of nobles through brutal and bloody life-and-death duels, and the powerful were willing to pay money for it.

The largest arena in the Yaolan Kingdom is in Thorn City in the Land of Thorns. The reason is that there are a lot of orcs fighting here. The Marquis claimed that these orcs participated in the gladiatorial battle voluntarily, and he would also pay these orcs a certain amount of compensation. , but in fact Fnovic controls these raccoon orcs through some means.

As the controller of Thorn City, Funovich naturally gained a lot, which aroused the envy of some people.

Green Ford, the youngest son of Funovich, was sitting in the chief seat of the auditorium, surrounded by nobles who were previously imprisoned and have now taken refuge in Funovich.

"Everyone, are you all watching this game attentively?" Green glanced at the surrounding nobles with a smile.

Baron Moses set his sights on Sama. Although he had a certain degree of freedom, he was very unhappy because he had just signed an unknown life-and-death contract with the unknown dark mage. He said without looking back: "Indeed, this one is called Sama." Ma’s orcs are very powerful, they have reached the peak level of the fifth level.”

"The Baron has good eyesight," Green said with a smile: "This raccoon orc is the most powerful among all the orcs in our arena, and he is very obedient."

"Then I wonder if they will help us resist the attack of the Yaolan Army in the future." Everyone present immediately turned their attention to Young Master Green.

Green smiled mysteriously: "Let me tell you some news here. In fact, these raccoon orcs are completely obedient to our orders, and will naturally help us resist the attack of the Yaolan Kingdom."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other. They knew that there were almost a thousand raccoon orcs fighting in Thorn City, and they had all been gladiators.

The beasts are infinitely powerful, and their strength is much higher than that of ordinary soldiers, almost equivalent to five thousand elite human infantry.

At this time, they also knew that the 50,000 elites of the Swisston Kingdom were stationed in the north of the Pingxi Mountains. They could cross the mountains and join them in the Land of Thorns at any time. Their respective private soldiers totaled almost more than 10,000 people. If they could After withstanding the first wave of attacks, they can temporarily recruit more militiamen in their respective territories.

Fnovic assured them that once the rebellion started, it only needed to last for half a month before the Holy See's 'mediation' would come.

But everyone present did not know that five thousand elite Glory Blue Cavalry were rushing towards them in the night, and had even crossed the Emerald River.

"Why, can't you get up?" Sama looked at Tribu who was lying on the ground. The mercenary was wearing tattered clothes and seemed to have been beaten many times in the dungeon.

"How...is it possible..." Tribe clenched his teeth, the hatred in his heart constantly irritating his brain nerves, forcing him to stand up. The deaths of the three brothers that day were still vivid in my mind, and the face of the man named Madiffin was vaguely visible. It turned out that he was the subordinate of Marquis Fnovich!

They have hidden large-scale sophisticated weapons and must be up to something evil. I want to expose them, but I can’t die yet.

But his voice seemed so insignificant in this bustling duel field...

"Oh, I can actually stand up." Sama ignored the shouts of death in his ears and watched silently as the tenacious mercenary stood up and picked up the sword in his hand. But I feel bored in my heart...

"Come again!" Tribu roared angrily, and the fighting energy in his body burst out instantly. The fighting energy flowed along his arms and tried to spread out of his body. The fighting energy on his body appeared and disappeared at any time, as if it could burst out of his body at any time.

"Do you want to break through to the fourth level?" Sama shook the double-sided giant ax in his hand and was not in a hurry to attack.

The audience also stopped shouting and looked forward to the mercenaries on the field. A strong showdown was what they wanted to see most. It could be said that Sama had been playing tricks on this mercenary before.

"Drink!!!" With another roar, Tribu's white fighting spirit was finally able to cover the blade of the sword...condensing the sword's energy, which was the sign of being promoted to a fourth-level warrior.

Feeling that his body was full of strength again, Tribu rushed straight towards the stout orc and shouted: "Go to hell!"

"Well done!" Sama roared. The fighting energy in his body suddenly condensed, and the veins in his arms suddenly bulged. His peak fifth-level strength exploded, and a sword gang twice as strong as Tribu's fighting energy was attached to the double-sided axe.

The audience held their breath and stared. There was a loud noise, and Tribu vomited a large mouthful of blood. He flew backwards and passed out.

"Tear him apart!"

"Good fight, kill him, pull out his intestines." The gladiatorial fight finally came to an end. The dignitaries in the audience stood up and yelled, saying that cruel and bloody killing methods are needed to satisfy their inner perverted desires.

Sama silently walked towards the unconscious mercenary, raised the double-sided ax high, and was about to cut him in half.

Green looked at the unconscious mercenary with a joking expression. You actually dare to seek revenge from us. You will become the laughing stock of others and go to hell.

But who would have expected that Sama struck the mercenary with an ax and then walked away without looking back, as if he didn't bother to kill a human with no fighting ability.

Not seeing the long-awaited scene, the audience roared: "Kill him... Sama!"

"Don't you dare to take action, coward?"

"Ah, my gold! Get out of here, damn barbarian!"

A lot of stones, glasses, and fruit peels were thrown at the head of the orc Sama, as if he was the loser.

Sama ignored it and walked straight on. He didn't know how many times he had encountered this kind of scene...

"...Little Master, what should I do with that mercenary?" a servant asked cautiously.

Sama failed to kill the mercenary as he wished, which made Green feel slightly gloomy.

This group of orcs has really become more and more disobedient in recent years. Didn't they just demote a few disobedient orc slaves? How dare you resist your master's orders!

Forget it, you won't live long anyway...

Green calmly glanced at the hesitant noble, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and ordered loudly: "Take him to the dungeon, deprive him of food and drink, let him live for a few more days, and let him take a good look at the Ford family." The consequences of opposing one’s will!”

All the nobles present suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on their backs. This last sentence was obviously meant for them...

"By the way, it's time for everyone to return to their respective territories to gather the knights. The knights of our family will always escort you back safely..."
