Chapter 0663: Town attacked
Quillings Cottage.
Compared with ordinary elf villages, this place is obviously much more lively and noisy.
Since it is adjacent to Tianshui City, the elves near the west coast who want to go to this famous city on the west coast will inevitably pass by Quellins Hut.
As a result, this place has become a beautiful town where travelers can’t help but stop and rest.
Within the Elf Kingdom, there are few large-scale chambers of commerce like those in the human kingdom. All commodity transactions and material exchanges are mostly conducted in small areas in the form of barter. Most of the elves have long lifespans, and their passions are mostly in the arts such as music, painting, flowers, and gardens. Their material requirements are very low, and most of the time they pursue a self-sufficient 'perfect' life.
While humans lament that life is too short and are busy pursuing money and power, the elves like to travel around the Jialan Continent as they please after they reach adulthood. Drink some nectar when you are thirsty, pick some wild fruits when you are hungry, and find a branch at random to have a good sleep when you are sleepy.
As for power, wealth, and personal strength, these have become useless wastes of life, and are excluded from life choices by most elves.
It is under the influence of this atmosphere of enjoying life and pursuing elegance that the pace of life of the elves seems a bit procrastinating and lazy.
Although there have been several warnings on the west coast, most of the attack sites are located on the edge of the coast. Therefore, even if Tianshui City sends a dense number of Pegasus knights and hippogryph archers to patrol the edge of the coast, the elves of Quellins Lodge He still seemed slow and leisurely, enjoying every day of his life to the fullest.
As night fell, the number of pedestrians coming to and from Querlins' hut gradually began to thin out.
Although the Magic Forest is the home of the elves, when night falls, those ferocious monsters will come out to cause trouble. So it's not particularly necessary, and the elves don't like walking in the magical forest at night.
At the foot of a low cliff three miles away from Querlins' cabin, Billis, dressed in black robes, was discussing something with Mary in a low voice.
After five days of walking day and night, the insect witch Bilisi finally successfully led the insect army to lurk near the Quellins cabin. And here, the next step depends on what Blood Queen Mary wants.
Therefore, after the two sides met here, everyone remained silent and silently followed the instructions of the old fox Wenlier.
"... This place already belongs to the important place of elves near Tianshui City. It would be wishful thinking for us to think about encircling and cleaning up the elves as leisurely as before. Once we stay here for too long, the distance of 200 miles will be too much for the defenders of Tianshui City. It doesn't matter. So no matter whether we win or lose, we must fight quickly, and the attack on Quellins' cabin must not take more than five hours."
"Five hours is too short! Even if the operation to kill the elves goes smoothly, there will not be much time to clean up the resources inside..." Billis said with a gloomy face.
"Lord Bliss, please don't forget that we are still in danger. Once the exposed position is marked by the Elf Mobile Force, it will be very difficult to get rid of them and escape to the edge of the coast. Therefore, we must not stay here for a long time. Five hours is enough for us to defeat the elf garrison in the town and then plunder it..."
Mary stood aside with a straight face, not paying much attention to the negotiation between Wenlier and Bliss. She stared in the northeast direction, frowning, and felt an indescribable heavy pressure in her heart that made her unable to breathe.
Was this operation exposed? Or will there be any changes in the next action? Or is there some big shot nearby?
Suddenly, too many possibilities came to her, which made her feel uneasy!
"No need to argue!" Mary said decisively: "We only have 4 hours. Once the 4 hours are up, no matter what the fighting situation is, we will disperse immediately... If you are not afraid of death, you can stay and continue the sweep. All the gains will be It’s yours, I don’t want to share it!”
Of course Billis didn't dare to be stubborn in front of Mary, and silently nodded in agreement.
Since time is tight, there is no need to arrange things slowly and surround first and then attack!
After a few people agreed, they immediately started taking action.
Bliss always carried the insect army with him. He walked to the forest and raised his hands lightly, shouting: "Come out, my people!"
As soon as Bliss's voice fell, the forest glade with a radius of 100 meters immediately started to rise.
The black soil raised round mounds like waves. As the soil at the top of the mounds cracked and collapsed, large swarms of black beetles spurted out from inside, instantly turning the place into a terrifying place. Sea of insects.
Billis's black body collapsed instantly, and scattered into hundreds of black insects that merged into the insect swarm, forming a terrifying torrent, rushing crazily towards the Quellins cabin not far away.
Behind the insect swarm, a large number of vampire bats began to advance forward under the cover of the lush tree canopy.
Under the dim moonlight, a terrible scene is about to take place in the forest!
…………
Warren is just an ordinary Elf archer!
It was a great honor that he was selected into the garrison of Quellins Hut and became a trainee elf warrior.
The task he needs to do every day is to guard the sentry on the edge of the town to prevent forest beasts and monsters from breaking into the town at night.
Night vigil work is actually very boring.
If it weren't for the clever and cute 'cat head' accompanying him and talking to him in a cooing way, I'm afraid Warren would have found it difficult to resist the length and loneliness of the night.
'Cat head' is an owl that grew up with him, and can be regarded as an animal companion who accompanies him day and night.
However, there is something abnormal today!
As soon as it gets dark, the cat head seems a little anxious and nervous, and from time to time it flies into the forest and circles in a group, as if looking for something. But it is dark and the forest is dense, and it almost always returns empty-handed.
Just as the bright moon in the sky just hung on the dome, this animal companion who has always been calm and composed is more like a possessed person, flying high and circling around the sentry post, and then quickly pounced on Hualin's shoulder and screamed loudly.
"Enemy... danger..."
Through quick communication, Warren only asked some simple information from the cat head.
He is not those druids who can use natural spells to talk directly to animals. Warren can ask these questions because of his familiarity and understanding with the cat head.
Are there enemies approaching the sentry post?
Warren quickly put on his longbow, quiver, short sword, and holding a vine with both hands, he jumped up the tall tree next to him as lightly as a monkey.
He found a hidden place and covered his body with dense leaves. Warren bent his bow and arrow, holding his breath and scanning the forest under the night.
As a trainee garrison member, he would be reprimanded by his superiors if he issued an alarm without finding the enemy. So Warren could only observe the surrounding movements silently.
When he calmed down and put his mind into the night wind, in addition to the rustling sound of the wind blowing the leaves, he vaguely heard some strange sounds.
Chirping...
It sounded like the sound of insects gnawing on dead wood, and also like the sound of insects rubbing their shells.
But with such dense sounds, could it be that the small insects nearby were rioting?
Just when he was surprised, Warren finally found something wrong.
The earth is moving...
As he looked carefully, the black earth in the distance seemed to be moving, surging over silently like a wave.
The chirping sound became louder and louder!
The black night could not block Warren's keen vision, and his face finally changed drastically!
This... it's not the earth surging, but... it's a group of black beetles that are so large that it's hard to count.
Like a black ocean, the swarm of insects flooded the woods, crossed the hills, crossed the streams, and were heading towards the Quel'Lithinth cabin at a crazy speed.
Beep...
The shrill siren finally sounded.
The feather arrow in Warren's hand shot out with a bang, and instantly sank into the black sea of insects.
Not knowing whether some insects were shot dead, Warren quickly bent his bow and arrowed, preparing for a second attack.
At this interval, a strange sound of flapping wings came into his ears from the canopy of the dense forest.
Warren looked up in shock, and what he saw was a furry mouth that was rapidly expanding.
…………
At the moment when the shrill siren sounded, a graceful and agile female elf walked out of the tree hall in the center of the bustling Quel'Lithinth hut and looked far away in the direction of the siren.
Almost at the same time, the deputy captain of the garrison, Alan, ran to the female elf panting with his quiver.
"It seems to be a siren from the southwest! Have you sent someone to check it out?" This smart and capable female elf was the captain of the town garrison. Seeing the deputy captain rushing back, she hurriedly asked.
As the military chief of the town, she is not as ignorant as ordinary elves.
The edge of the west coast has not been peaceful for a while!
If it is really a warning from the southwest, then the problem may become very serious.
"Someone has been sent. Tonight, Warren is on sentry duty in the west. It sounds like the warning from the sentry in the west. Do you think we need to notify all members of the garrison to gather?"
"Gather!" The female elf captain was still looking into the distance: "I always feel that something bad might happen tonight..."
However, before the deputy captain went down to ring the bronze bell in the center of the village, the southwest direction had become chaotic.
This commotion was not a commotion in a certain place, but a comprehensive one.
It was visible to the naked eye that the southwest edge of the Quel'Lithin hut was like a gust of cold wind blowing through, and wherever it went, it immediately crackled and became chaotic. Many elves screamed and screamed, running away quickly while climbing to a higher place.
It seems that some terrible beasts rushed into the town...
"Gather people immediately, I'll go over and take a look first..."
The female elf didn't hesitate to consider, and left a word, jumped down the tall tree, and ran quickly towards the source of the commotion. nt
