Chapter VII Missions
For the Capital of Knowledge, the three-day sowing festival is not a particularly important festival, it is just a traditional event. However, today's Capital of Knowledge is particularly beautifully arranged in the city. The western temple area and the outside world are open, the spacious street is cleaned clean, with flowers on both sides, colorful butterflies dancing among the flowers, pollen scattered from the brightly colored wings, and a fine glimmer of light shine in the sun.
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers." Several teenagers ran around the nearby streets, waving the rolled newspapers in their hands, shouting loudly: "Fifteen copper coins are available, come and see. The city guards cracked a case of smuggling major dangerous goods, and the amount involved was as high as 13,000 gold coins; the city lord took a nap at the municipal meeting yesterday. Is it too tired to work during the day or too tired to work at night? The elves delegation is about to arrive today,
Why did the Elf Queen of Beautiful come? Miss Mura in the North City District sprained her ankle during her performance, and 500 enthusiastic dance fans spontaneously stayed outside the hospital and prayed for blessings all night. Want to know the latest news? Want to know the latest price direction of goods in the new season? Want to know the waistline of Miss Ansha? Buy a newspaper, you can get all the news of concern, just fifteen copper coins and just buy a piece of black bread less, you can get the latest news.
On the street at the gate of the city, more and more citizens gathered on both sides, standing crowded on both sides of the street, curiously looking at the city gate at the end of the street, looking forward to the arrival of the elves. As the reception party, the Holy Capital did nothing extra except cleaning the streets and laying out flowers, and arranging the venues and residences. The only requirement was that the residents would not stop the city guards, but everyone must ensure that they were dressed neatly. Therefore, many bored residents gathered in the west early in the morning.
The temple area is waiting for the arrival of the elves. After all, although elves are not rare for the residents of the Holy Capital, due to the peaceful life of all year round, the real foreign envoy has not seen them, not to mention the envoys led by the legendary most beautiful elf queen. Everyone is inevitably a little curious. Of course, as for the focus of curiosity, it is difficult to say whether it is the real envoys or the beautiful elf queen. But I believe most men will say that they are just interested in the envoys.
More and more people gathered, even including some young wealthy families. They wore the most gorgeous clothes, the most fashionable hairstyles, and the most appropriate accessories. They squeezed to the closest to the street, and there were a few people holding flowers in their hands, hoping to be lucky enough to find opportunities like beautiful and elegant elves who were not offered them. However, these people were quickly glared at by the City Guards and drove away. The City Guards did not want to know what reactions would be if those elves who loved nature would see someone deliberately hurting plants just to dedicate them to them. Anyway, the team members were sure that their reaction would not be happy.
After driving away those rich children who were not very smart, the city guards continued to patrol and maintain order on several streets that the Elf Envoys were expected to pass. Their mission is very heavy today. Of course, the mission is not to protect the safety of the elves. No one would be stupid enough to think that an elf demigod and a group of elves' high-level professionals needs a group of low-level professionals and ordinary people to protect. The most important task of their mission is to maintain order so that the elves will not be harassed by the gentry of the Holy Capital with excessive curiosity. If these elves who look noble and elegant really get angry, it will really cause a bloody crime.
Not long after, people could see a group of birds suddenly gathering in the woods not far outside the city, hovering around an area. This area is constantly approaching the city at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon left the woods. It appeared in people's sight. It was a small convoy of eight cars, and the style of the convoy was very different from that of humans. All the vehicles were not horse-drawn carts but deer carts. The ones pulling the cart were tamed jungle bigfoot deer. These docile deer were actually classified as silver-grade monsters. There were two mountains on their heads.
The horns are like sheep. The horns are extremely sharp and have their own penetration characteristics, which can easily tear apart the fighting spirit defense below the golden rank. Since the mid-Third Age, the elves have a large number of these big-footed deer as a means of transportation and also used as riding mounts. The ones pulled behind the big-footed deer are all made of vines except the wheels. These vines are light and sturdy. After being woven into the carriage, they not only provide excellent defense capabilities, but also are not as stuffy as human carriages at all. It feels like they have returned to nature.
Around the convoy, there were a hundred elves guards. Most of these riders were riding big-footed deer, with only ten small team leaders in the lead riding a better jungle leopard. These riders were neatly worn with elves' hunting suits, emerald green cloaks, and their heads were also shrouded under the hood of the cloak. The hood was designed for the elves themselves, with two holes on the head, which just happened to allow two pointed ears to penetrate. They were carrying large bows more than one meter long on their backs, small hunting bows and crossbows hanging around their waists, and a close-fitting sting sword behind their waists. If you are familiar with their configuration, you can also know that there are two sharp daggers hidden in the boots on their feet, which can be said to be armed.
Looking at the group of elves, most of the onlookers did not respond, but some people who were proficient in history felt a little uncomfortable. It was not hostility, but a very strange feeling, because those who recognized the group of escorts knew that these hundred escorts had a common name - the elves Lin Wei, the elves Lin Wei who went out in full swing during the 214th Day War more than 1,200 years ago, swept through more than half of the human territory, forced humans to surrender, and changed the political structure of the human world, and finally became an established and safe return to the jungle. It was also the only pure militarized unit of the elves who liked freedom. Although the war has been long and people are mostly grateful for the war, it is difficult for everyone not to feel uncomfortable in their hearts when they see this legendary unit.
Fortunately, time had already diluted everything and any discomfort became very weak. After the Lin Guards guarded the convoy into the city, they still received huge cheers. Although most of them just joined in the fun, when a small number of people who were uncomfortable watching the fun took the lead in cheering, a large number of people still cheered, although they didn't know why they were cheering for.
Correspondingly, from the windows of the second and next few cars of the deer car fleet, there were elves poking their heads out, with diplomatic smiles and waved to the people, and their elegant actions further aroused the public's favor. However, the first car always silently, maintaining the reserve and mystery of the elf queen.
"Tsk tsk, this queen is so rude." Panis, dressed in a black dress and a wide-brimmed top hat, and a gentleman dressed in a decorative crutch, said with a pout, "Until now, he still refuses to show up to say hello to everyone."
