Volume Two The Fallen Light Chapter 84 The Promise
"Of course, the world has changed for thousands of years. The high elf empire of the past no longer exists, and the grudges of the past have long since dissipated like a passing cloud. Believe me, no one or force on the continent cares about how your ancestors took sides back then.
." Ekaterina said affirmatively.
"Really?" Ethan, who was a little drunk, immediately woke up when he heard Yekaterina's reply. You must know that they have really had enough in this deep mountain.
"But even if the human empire can accept us and forgive us, then we all add up to about hundreds of thousands of people. Which empire will carve out a living area for us?" The person who spoke was that the status of the War Eagle clan was second only to the patriarch Ethan.
Another middle-aged man, he is a warrior, not a druid, and his strength is also at the gold level.
Ekaterina thought for a while and decided to tell her trump cards and secrets.
"I am the princess of the Albrex Empire..."
After Ekaterina revealed her identity and the whole story, Ethan and everyone else were stunned and started talking a lot.
Finally, young Druidnik expressed everyone's doubts.
"No offense intended, Your Royal Highness, since you are an exiled princess and do not have any power in your hands, how can you provide us with a place for survival? Or do you need the blood of our survivors to gain the possibility of revenge for you?"
After saying these words, Nick was sweating profusely. He knew that what he said could easily arouse the anger of the three people in front of him, but for the sake of the tribe, he had to say it. Because the leader of the tribe was not suitable to say it, he had to be the villain.
Contrary to expectations, Ekaterina did not have any reaction. She answered the question for everyone.
"Of course I will not use your blood to achieve my great cause of revenge. In the future, if I can successfully revenge and ascend the throne, I hope that you can be used by me and become part of the Albrex Empire, and I,
Provide you with shelter. Of course, your War Eagle clan alone is not enough. I believe, Chief Ethan, you can contact the chiefs of other tribes and convey my words to them, Yekaterina?"
Everyone in the War Eagle clan present was filled with joy. Maybe the princess in front of her might not be able to achieve great things, but at least she was sincere and had no thoughts or intentions of using the blood of the warriors of the War Eagle clan to pave the way for the empire. This was enough.
.
As for whether it can happen, no matter how small the probability is, it is better than having no hope, right?
So Chief Yisen quickly said yes, and he would send someone to notify other tribes after dawn.
"But don't have too much hope. At this moment, I don't know if I can succeed in revenge." Ekaterina poured a basin of cold water on her.
However, this group of barbarians did not care too much. Being able to survive in the difficult conditions of the Rocky Mountains so far, they have generally developed an optimistic attitude, and Ekaterina's frankness made these simple high elves remnants
Trust her more.
With a glimmer of hope, the crowd immediately started drinking, singing and dancing again.
It was a pity for the three of them to refuse many invitations from these barbarian boys and girls to dance. After all, the appearance of the three people in front of them was astonishing. I am afraid that only the legendary high elf nobles could compare with them.
In the middle of the night, the banquet finally broke up.
After arranging the accommodation for the three Elos, Chief Ethan returned to his house to rest.
Ethan went back to the house to rest. After being awake for a while, he suddenly sighed. His wife sat up and asked with concern: "Ethan, what's wrong with you? Aren't you very happy tonight?"
"Penny, I always have an intuition that maybe these three people will change the fate of us remnants, but I just don't know whether for good or bad."
"Ethan, I think it should be a good thing. This princess has excellent character. When she is in trouble, she is protected by two knights with such high strength. Besides, she is also a silver-level magician. This is enough to show her potential.
.What's more, she didn't ask us to pay anything. She just said that she would accept us out of the mountains after she has achieved great things. From my point of view, we are already in a desperate situation. Now that we have a glimmer of hope, it is better than living in this mountain range for thousands of years.
We are fighting ferocious monsters to the death. In our War Eagle clan, there have been fewer and fewer babies born in the past few years!"
"That's right. It seems that I have been too careful. Alas, when you grow old, you will inevitably worry too much sometimes. It seems that I have to hurry up and send someone to inform the chiefs of other tribes tomorrow."
"Go to sleep, Ethan, there are still many important things to deal with tomorrow."
early morning.
The sun has not yet risen from the top of the mountain, and the morning dew is still hanging on the tips of the leaves and branches.
Eloise was lying relaxedly on the roof, chewing a straw in his mouth, while Joan of Arc and Catherine were still sleeping soundly in the house.
As for women, sleep is the best beauty treatment, not to mention that the two of them were really tired these days.
Jenny, the sister of the druid young man who was treated yesterday, was lying next to him, staring at him with a pair of big eyes.
There were shouts and shouts in the village, and dozens of people carrying baskets and cans, led by young Druidnik, filed up the mountain.
"Jenny." Eloise called out lazily.
"Um?"
"What are they doing up the mountain so early in the morning? Hunting?"
Jenny smiled and said: "Druids hunting? I'm sorry you can think of it! If they hear it, they will definitely not dare to say anything, but they will definitely be angry in their hearts."
"It's my fault, I'm sorry, I offended your faith." Eloise knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he apologized to the girl.
"Ah, it's okay. They went to collect food and clean up the surrounding monsters and other creatures. In fact, the Druid sect we believe in does not allow us to eat meat. We can only use fruits and vegetables as a source of food, so we have to eat them regularly.
Collect enough food from the surrounding areas. There are also nearby magical beasts, such as groups of wind wolves, which are also a major threat to our survival. We cannot allow them to multiply too much and cause harm to us. This also requires us to eliminate them regularly."
"Really? I was a little confused at first. The environment in the Rocky Mountains is a bit more difficult. If you hunt, your life should not be a problem. It turns out you don't eat meat. No wonder." Elos understood why the population of these barbarians is getting higher and higher.
Come less and less.
"Well, this is our tradition. Everyone has been accustomed to it. It is difficult to change thousands of years of customs and beliefs." The girl Jenny knew the shortcomings of the Druid sect, but she was unable to change it and had no reason to change it.
The two of them just chatted about each other.
The morning is a good time for the young druids of the War Eagle clan to practice martial arts. Seven or eight young people are working hard on the small square at the east end of the village to practice their skills of transformation, wooden staff, and hammer.
Accompanied by Jenny, Eloise also came here to give advice on the combat skills of the druids. The druids have always relied on magic, and when fighting hand-to-hand, they relied on transformation to transform into various creatures to fight, and they would also attract enemies.
Countless ferocious creatures and monsters in the wild help in the battle, so the combat skills themselves are not particularly important.
This druid tribe has been closed for too long, and the martial arts they practice are really not very good.
Elos first came out holding a sword, and a faint light appeared on the broken star. When the two-handed sword was used, it was indeed unpredictable, and it was difficult to guard against gods and ghosts.
With just a few moves, Eloise killed five or six young men on the field until they were all beaten to pieces. Jenny's eyes were bright, her face was red, and she was filled with indescribable pride.
Eloise casually gave everyone some pointers. In fact, it was nothing more than some martial arts knowledge popular in the army of the Principality of Charles. What he talked about was more about practical skills. This small village had been closed for too long, so that there were so many people in the army.
Some basic combat skills are regarded as treasures.
Of course, they cannot use or understand the martial arts that are too advanced.
At this moment, even the senior Druid instructors who were watching and listening on the sidelines quickly recorded the moves Iloth taught.
Ethan nodded with satisfaction from a distance. He had just sent several clever young druids to the mountains to inform other tribes:
"Being able to get guidance from the Paladin is undoubtedly a valuable asset."
Suddenly, Nick led a few young druids in ragged clothes and ran back to the village in a panic, unable to even speak, which shocked Ethan.
After walking quickly to Nick and the others, Ethan shouted:
"Nick, why are you the only ones who went together? What's going on?"
