Ten thousand elves surrounded the cave where the night elves were. Since the fire occurred a few days ago, the Forest of Winds dispatched another five thousand elite escorts to prepare to deal with the night elves in the shortest possible time.
Although the Night Elves have gained quite a reputation in the Nolan Continent recently, there are only a thousand of them so far, and most of them are slaves with low strength.
If it weren't for the complex terrain of the caves and the endless trap formations, the night elves would have been wiped out by the night elves long ago.
This siege lasted more than ten days.
This place is located in the territory of the goblin tribe. There are often goblin spies in the mountains not far away. There are even goblin army stationed ten miles away. Although they are hiding in the cave, according to the detection of the high priest, the number is more than 10,000. .
This siege must be completed as soon as possible. The long supply line and the harsh environment around the cave are not easy for the Elf Guards involved in the siege.
Due to mining, there are mostly barren mountains near the caves. The exposed rocks cannot block the cold wind for the elven warriors in this cold winter.
It rained several times in the past few days, which made the situation even worse. Many elven warriors had already suffered frostbite.
Holding the line of defense, unable to drink sweet flower dew, unable to eat fresh and delicious food, enduring the cold in this ice and snow, eating raw and cold dry food, the spirit of the Elf Guards was a little sluggish.
"Brother, you said we were also captured. Why are we helping them fight against the princess? She is fighting for us?" A young elf looked around and saw no one around. He looked at the one beside him The elf whispered.
"Princess, she is a good elf." The elf glanced in the direction of the cave and said with a sad expression: "But, what she did is impossible to succeed. If we want to survive, we have to accept our fate and be inferior to others. This It’s our life.”
"But..." The young elf still wanted to speak.
"Stand up!" At this moment, a sharp shout was accompanied by a crisp sound of a whip. A tall elf in golden armor riding a tall magical beast withdrew his whip and glanced at the man who was whipped out. The elf with a deep bloodstain on his face shouted loudly: "Cheer up! Don't think how hard it is for you. You still have food to eat every day. Those traitors on the mountain have completely run out of food. Lord Berg said, If they don’t accept surrender, we will surround this cave and starve them all to death!”
The elves who were having lunch stood up one after another, and most of them had a vague meaning in their expressions.
Some of them were captured by demons and brought back to the Wind Forest and then directly conscripted into the army, while more were ordinary elves who were classified as low-level elves and were forced to undertake military service.
They have no freedom of choice, undertake the most dangerous tasks, receive the meager wages, and only live with slightly more dignity than the slaves in the guard.
When Princess Irina raised the banner of freedom and resistance and issued a declaration to the entire continent to fight for freedom for the low elves who were oppressed at the bottom of the elf society, they fell into the hands of the nobles who enslaved them. The sharp blade.
Their swords can only be swung at those elves who are braver than them, those who fight for freedom.
They silently endured the whips and insults from the high-level elves, just for the hard-to-eat dry food in their hands and to survive.
The world outside the forest is not beautiful, and if it falls into the hands of those demons, life will be worse than death.
The world described by Her Royal Highness the Princess is very beautiful, and freedom is so desirable.
But in the face of the powerful rule of the Wind Forest, even the powerful princess could only huddle in the cave with the night elves and die of hunger.
"Eat." The elf took a hard bite of the dry food in his hand and whispered to the young elf. His eyes were fixed on the elf general, but his heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness.
With tears in the eyes of the young elf, he put the dry food to his mouth, but he couldn't swallow it.
The elf general said with a proud face: "Lord Berg said that tomorrow at the latest, we can collect the bodies of those traitors and end this ridiculous rebellion. The class can never be overthrown, just like those traitors There’s no way the food will be mediocre.”
At this moment, a strong aroma of barbecue suddenly floated out from all the holes in the cave, and when blown by the wind, it instantly spread in all directions.
"smell good!"
At the foot of the mountain, the elves with dry food in their hands lit up. They smelled the smell of barbecue, swallowed subconsciously, and then couldn't help but start looking for the source of the smell.
The rich aroma of barbecue was overwhelming just by smelling saliva. The elves, who had eaten dry food for more than ten days without even a bite of meat, had almost no resistance in front of this aroma.
The aroma was so alluring, far superior to the smell of roasted game they accidentally got on weekdays. Just by smelling the aroma, they seemed to have seen the shiny barbecue on the fire.
"This smell is coming from the cave. They haven't run out of food yet! They are barbecuing!"
An elf exclaimed, with a hint of envy and yearning in his voice.
The elves quickly determined that the scent was indeed coming from the cave. The fact that it could come from the depths of the cave and create such a strong surrounding effect meant that there was definitely a lot of barbecue, and most of them could be eaten by everyone. to that extent.
The face of the elf general who had previously vowed to declare that the night elves had completely run out of food and that they could launch a general attack tomorrow to eliminate all the traitors changed their expressions.
Lord Berg said this himself during the morning meeting today. According to the information from internal spies, the night elves should have been without food for several days at this time. There is not even wild vegetables. How can there be barbecue? !
"This must be the conspiracy of those traitors. They have been besieged for more than half a month. No one can escape. They have long run out of ammunition and food! Pick up your weapons and guard these caves!" The elf general said angrily, with a long whip in his hand. There was an air blast in the air, and he rode away quickly on his mount. This matter must be reported to Mr. Berg immediately.
"It turns out that the night elves still have food and grass!" Many elves breathed a sigh of relief. Killing fellow elves was not something they were willing to do, not to mention that they were elves of the same status and class as them.
The elves who originally looked down on the night elves also had a glimmer of light in their eyes.
"Brother, since we all have to eat to survive, then why don't we stand up and eat meat like them and live freely?" The young elf put down the rough dry food in his hand and looked at his brother and asked.
