Chapter 785: Shrouded Darkness

For Flandrew and Remilia, it's just a game, and it's almost time to go home for dinner after dark. But for Bryand, it was a much more difficult day......... The Blood Queen's envoy was not able to hide this matter after all, and even the Nether Emissary came to inquire about the details of this matter. Although in the end, Lord Klein stepped forward and finally did not let his "daughter" be arrested and taken to the Nether Temple, but the matter itself was completely over. Not only that, but I heard that the Nether Princess was very angry about this and asked Master Klein to give her an explanation......... Of course, this is just rumor, and no one knows exactly what the outcome will be.

As for Jenn......... He died an honorable death.

That's right, honorable death.

After Flandor revealed himself to make trouble, Jenn extinguished the last flame of "Fass" and completely disconnected himself from the other party. Then he slipped away quietly, so that even if Berion went back to investigate, he would only be able to get the news from the other members of Fas's family that Fass had completely died. This is not surprising, after all, even Berion's dependents have died so much, and the death of one more earl is nothing. And from Berry's point of view, this is better, after all, he lost such a big person, and he originally planned to show it off, but it turned out to be wiped on the ground by someone, and such a thing would not look good if it was rumored. Therefore, Berian did not investigate the death of "Fass", and only thought that he was also killed by that strange girl.

What's more, Berian has more important things to do right now, and that is to investigate what the vampire family named "Scarlett" is all about. Since the other party has already reported his name before, then in terms of the arrogant self-esteem of the vampire species. Surely he wouldn't lie, and now Berion just wanted to investigate. See who the Scarlett family really is. After all, whether it was Flandorow before or the mysterious girl who appeared later. All of them possess a blood power far beyond Berion itself, and can even be compared to the six Blood Countesses, and being able to have such a blood breath means that they must be from some ancient noble family. And the most important thing now is to find out what these two little girls are here for, and who they are.

Just when Berry vowed to find out all the other party's family backgrounds, Jenn, who had reverted to the identity of "Jenny", had returned to the Holy Fire Peak to join Patilina and the others. Then I went back to the camp, but ............ Just after Jenny and the others went back, they got a very bad news from Ellie.

"The elves can't accept this plan of action!"

In front of Jenny, Her Highness the Holy Maiden, who had originally wanted to be gentle and calm, showed an angry expression for the first time. It can be seen that even Her Highness the Holy Maiden, who takes love as her own responsibility, has had enough of the stubbornness of the elves.

"Although I have persuaded Her Majesty, Her Royal Highness Princess Viconia has promised to make some concessions. But the other elves were unwilling to accept this command, and they even said that they would live and die with the forest! It's simply ......... It's ......... Simply ..............."

Ellie said "simply" three times in a row, but in the end she didn't say the rest of the words, I don't know if she was too good at cultivating, or if she was so poor in vocabulary that it was difficult to find any suitable words to act on the stupid behavior of these elves. Luckily, someone close to her was apparently well-versed in this.

"Heaven wants it to perish. Make it crazy first, and that's it for those stupid elves! Let's just serve them in a pot!! It's all death anyway, and in whose hands is it not death? If only we could have cremated them, lest the scourge come back to us after they are resurrected! ”

In this matter. Patilina is obviously much more positive.

"Since they don't want to retreat, it's better to stay there as bait. It just so happened that we were worried that if the group of wooden poles that had been working on trees all day were removed, it would alarm the group of brainless eunuchs. Wouldn't it be better if they were willing to stay there? There are no sacrifices. Where did the victory come from! In order to guide the large-yield planetary destruction device to send the special forces to death, there are not one or two! ”

"Uh......... Ahem......... Miss Pattilina, don't let anyone else hear you..............."

Patilina's unabashed speech, listening to Ellie, was also red-faced. Although she had heard the little guy speak without scruples more than once, it didn't mean that Ellie could get used to it. After all, she had grown up in the Sanctuary since she was a child. The people she met were basically polite and full of culture, and where she came with her mouth full of foul words like Patilina, Ellie was sure that if Viconia heard Patilina's complaints, I am afraid that at this time, the haughty princess would have to duel with Patilina for the glory of the elves.

However, it is subtle that Ellie does not dispute the hidden meaning of Patilina's words............ Of course, there may be a reason why Pattilina's proposal is really reasonable. After all, the elves who remain here at the moment are all elites, and if they are transformed into undead creatures after dying in battle, then it will naturally be a problem for the coalition forces of the Templar Order. But if we are all cremated......... Then it's another story.

It's really easy to learn bad, but it's hard to learn......... Or should it be said that those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black?

"In order to protect what we need to protect, we always have to make sacrifices, Your Highness."

And at this time, Jenny, who was originally watching quietly from the side, finally spoke. She stared at the saintess in front of her, with a mocking and expectant smile in her eyes. Hearing Jenny's words, Ellie was stunned for a moment, and then she lowered her head and thought silently.

"Sacrifice......... Is it .........? ”

"That's right, Your Majesty. As an elf, I don't want to see my home burned down by war. But now, it is a matter of time before this forest is destroyed, we simply don't have enough strength to fight the undead legions, and we must use every means we can think of to fend off those evil and terrible beings. This is also the truth that I have experienced in the dark lands, and that there are times when we have no choice in order to win, to protect the people we need to protect. ”

"There is no other choice............

"Yes, it may be contrary to our beliefs, or it may not be in line with our standards. But should we give up the reality that is in front of us for the sake of all this? ”

Saying this, Jenny raised her head and looked at Ellie in front of her, the red light in her eyes flashing.

"I'm an elf, and it's not up to me to give the answer to this question. I have already given my proposal, and it is up to you to decide whether or not to accept it, Your Highness. ”

"I......... I'll make the decision........."

Ellie was completely unaware of the red glint in Jenny's eyes. At this moment, she was struggling inwardly -- she knew very well that although what Patilina had just said was excessive, the little one's character had always been like this, and it was not true. But if she starts to seriously consider the offer, then it's a different story. This shows that he has begun to seriously think about whether he should sacrifice these elves to gain peace and tranquility on the entire continent.

Frankly, Ellie was a little tired, too. In order to convince Her Majesty and Viconia, she has been going back and forth between the front and rear for the past few days. They even had to promise to give them a new territory in the name of the Templar Order after the war was over, so that the elves could live there. In Ellie's opinion, she has reached her limits. But even so, the elves were not satisfied, although the elven queen agreed to the proposal, and Viconia promised to assist her. However, the other elves were quite disgusted by this, which made it very difficult to carry out the plan. Although Ellie has been explaining to them, the elves' attachment to their homeland is still beyond Ellie's imagination - or unbearable.

That's right, unbearable.

Ellie felt that she could not vent her anger at the foolish choice made by the elves in the most vicious language she could think ofβ€”they were reveling in the illusion of self-sacrifice, ignoring that they were not just fighting for themselves, but for the Crane Continent and for the millions of people on this continent. In the process of communicating with these elves, Ellie was disappointed to find that these elves did not notice this at all, for them, the whole world seemed to be only "elves" and "others", and they only focused on "elves", and as for "others", for those elves, belonged to a very, very, very distant, almost isolated place.

This made Ellie incomprehensible, let alone acceptable. Why are elves so stubborn? Everyone is fighting for this continent, why are they not willing to make such a small sacrifice? Could it be that their homeland is more important than this continent?

"I'm so sorry, Miss Jenny, I think I need to think about it."

Thinking of this, Ellie couldn't help but sigh, and then spoke. Hearing her answer, the corners of Jenny's mouth curled up and a strange smile appeared. Although Ellie tried to keep her expression normal, the last trembling in her words betrayed what she really thought in her heart.

I really didn't expect that the opportunity would come so inadvertently.

"Of course there is no problem, Your Highness." (To be continued.) )
