In the early morning, when Lin returned to the Guest House, he noticed an unusual atmosphere in the air, as if he had just experienced the excitement of a big battle...
No, it's not like 'like', but 'at all'! Because someone identified the unusual source as the pungent smell of blood.
The room where he lived alone was still intact, but what about other places? Lin calmed down, extended the scope of his magic detection, and immediately discovered that the elves were not staying in their own rooms, but gathered in an open living room.
.Lin immediately flashed over.
In this living room, which can be used for small meetings, the tables and chairs are now staggered. They have been consciously gathered together and stacked to form a simple roadblock shelter.
Apart from the blood splattered everywhere, no other enemies were seen. The elves were hiding behind the bunker, bandaging each other's wounds.
Lin's sudden appearance did not alarm the elves, because they were sure to judge the enemy or ourselves at the first opportunity. As for this human magician, they were already familiar with it, so naturally they would not be surprised.
However, Lin Ke couldn't be as calm as the elves. It didn't matter to him when he saw a group of wounded soldiers. More importantly, although the number of elves was still sixteen, many people had changed among them. Lin asked worriedly:
"Someone was injured and sent to hospital? Is it serious?"
A dress full of bloodstains, Miriam stepped forward and said: "Sir, some people were indeed sent away first, but their lives are not in danger. Please don't worry."
"Okay, what's going on? Those nobles are coming? Can you confirm who they are?" Lin asked.
"It's a pity, sir. The people who came are probably just a group of desperadoes. They don't have any identifiable coat of arms." Miriam replied.
"Then I didn't ask... Oh, forget it." The reason why someone gave up asking was because he had already discovered the fate of the intruders. Just at the main entrance of the guesthouse, there were a large number of broken bodies and limbs, which were long.
Spears, spears, swords and other objects were skewered and erected in a dense manner. From the equipment point of view, there was no unified standard of weapons and they looked like a motley army.
This also explains why this living room experienced a fierce battle, but in the mess, there was no trace of the enemy. I dare say that these elves had already cleaned the battlefield and wiped out all the invading enemies.
It was taken out to show to the public.
After a quick look, there were seven or eight elves who came with him. But this does not mean that the injuries were serious enough to have to be evacuated. There were only seven or eight people. Maybe some unlucky ones were seriously injured and evacuated just after they came to support. So.
While assisting in the treatment, Lin also asked about the detailed situation. He murmured and complained: "People have come in, why don't you retreat first? You were injured in vain."
Miriam wanted to explain a few words. However, she realized that the magician had already moved his mind to other places, so she simply kept silent. The other elves had the same attitude.
The arrogant elves are not willing to talk to humans unless necessary. When this human can be on an equal footing with His Majesty the World Tree, the elves may not be proud, but they don't know how to talk to such a 'person'
.So, although Lin has always been respected among the elves, he still feels a sense of alienation.
Of course Lin didn't care about this kind of thing, and he never thought about changing the attitudes of the elves. Anyway, the friendship between gentlemen is like water. The elves asked him for help, and he helped him; when he asked them for help when he needed it, they were also willing to help.
That's enough. Someone's whole mind now is figuring out which side he can use this attack to put pressure on.
The empress' side is definitely not allowed. There is no reason to cause trouble for one of our own people. But the invading enemy does not have identification, and it is not easy to just find someone to blame.
Besides, we still don’t know who the number one enemy is. I asked the empress last night, and she said very generously that all titled nobles can be regarded as enemies, and there is no need to worry about hurting one of their own. In such a situation,
Someone was also speechless.
So, just pick an unlucky guy to blame? Someone thought seriously. But before Lin could think of any hateful guy who could get in his way, there was another wave of unrest outside the guesthouse in the early morning.
.
This time, a nobleman displayed his chariots and horses and led an army, about the size of a large army, to surround the guest house. Although it was not as if they were waving flags to cover the sky, the small guest house was surrounded like this.
It's also watertight.
Maybe the elves don't have the same detection methods as someone who uses magic, but they have their own early warning methods. The movements of the group of soldiers outside were not ignored by the elves. A few who were not injured and had nothing to do raised the World Tree again.
The mass-produced enhanced version of the Elf King's Bow was sent to me, and I came to the window to look at the scene outside the guest house.
Miriam, who was the only one with bare hands, took a step slower than the others and did not come to the window. She just stood behind someone who also came to the window. She asked: "Sir, should we retreat now?" There was a hint of emotion in her tone.
An indistinguishable smell. It's like throwing the complaint they didn't have time to explain back to someone.
"Well, okay, I was wrong just now. In this situation, you really can't retreat, you can only fight with the people on the opposite side. If you retreat and let them have bad ideas, then the early preparations will be in vain.
How much effort does it take to get back to the current situation? It's really troublesome." Lin judged helplessly.
Previously, the bank of the Gold Coin Goddess was in another place. If it was attacked by a local lord, she would definitely leave directly. Then she would delay the opening of the other party's bank to see when the other party would regret it and she would be in a good mood. But Karls
The situation in the Rue Empire and Neuquen Imperial City is different.
The position Lin chose was to stand on the same side as the empress and to go against the nobles. If he turned around and left due to attacks from some nobodies, wouldn't the most proud people be those old die-hards who stubbornly stand on the conservative side?
The empress will also disrupt the original cooperation layout because of her departure. In this way, it is relatively easy to offend His Majesty; it is not impossible to make all preparations overnight, including the empress.
. He is simply the best example of a pig teammate.
As for the method of retreating first, waiting for the other party to find nothing, and then leaving on their own, then go back and take over the guest house again. In fact, although this approach protects human life, it also gives the other party a chance to contact the empty guest house, which is also a trick.
possibility.
It was like making up a lot of lies, and all kinds of weird and bizarre things were completed in one breath. And because I was not present, I could only let others play freely, and only find opportunities to make amends afterwards.
You must know that the bank of the Gold Coin Goddess needs people's confidence most. This kind of opportunity that may bring trouble to yourself, it is the most correct thing not to miss any of it to others.
This means that in the battle in front of him, he can only act recklessly once.
With a helpless sigh, Lin waved his hand and said, "You can stay and make preparations. Heal your injuries if you need to, and collect weapons if you need to collect weapons. I will handle the outside matters."
When someone takes the initiative to take responsibility, other elves will stop complaining about the inconsistent attitude of a certain magician. Although they are not injured, or the injuries are not serious, it does not mean that they will not be tired. After a fierce battle all night, all
General calculations consume a lot of energy and energy.
Without thinking much, Lin casually set up a giant light and shadow magic circle, spinning it in the sky above the guest house. Then he flashed to the main entrance of the hotel, opened the door, and walked out on two legs.

The giant magic circle rotating in the sky did cause a commotion among the nobles' private army for a while. But they quickly calmed down. Because the magic circle in the sky just rotated very slowly and had no effect. If no one
If you stare at it, you can't even notice it rotating.
The leading noble who felt relieved saw someone voluntarily walking out of the guest house. He just thought that the other party was scared and wanted to negotiate a good condition so that they could evacuate safely. After all, the population of the elves was there, and they could not afford to stop.
The earth is dead. Therefore, seeking peace is the only chance for the elves.
As for the magician who came out, his confident look made the nobles who looked at him sneer secretly in their hearts. The only fate of this magician is death, which is an ending that many people can accept and look forward to.
However, the magician had not yet realized that his fate had been arranged, so he could still smile proudly. This made the leading noble want to see what he would look like when he knew his final fate.
Face?
Unfortunately, the development of things was different from what most people imagined. Lin walked past the special installation art on display and came to the forefront, confronting the nobles and their private armies. He was not begging for mercy, but
He asked, "My lord, why are you here?"
The nobleman pointed at the mess behind Lin with his horsewhip and said, "You are causing trouble in Neuquen Imperial City and even murdering people. Do you really think that the Karlsruhe Empire is a place where you can go and go freely without any restrictions?"
"
Lin glanced at the tragic scene behind him and said: "As a distinguished guest invited by the empire, staying at a place designated by the empire, under such circumstances, there are still lawless people harassing me. I can say that the prestige of the empire is in this group of arrogant people."
In the eyes of the people, there is nothing left. Since the empire has no prestige at all, then we strike back in order to protect our own lives. What is wrong with this?"
"Sophistication!" The noble with a particularly loud voice yelled and cursed: "It's not because of your actions that provoke public resentment, that's why some ambitious people attack you in the name of getting rid of harm. And you, as sinners,
It is an unforgivable crime for you to commit such a crime again. As a lord who is loyal to the empire, it is my duty to rectify all injustices. I will kill you today to show my loyalty to the empire.
Righteous and prestigious name.”
With that said, the noble waved his hand and gave an order: "March! March! Capture the magician and the elves in the guesthouse. If there is resistance, we will kill them without mercy."
Are there three sentences? Seeing that the negotiation could not be concluded, Lin waved his hand and sent a fireball into the magic formation in the sky. In an instant, the formation released a thick black fog, like a bowl turned upside down, covering the entire guesthouse building and
There is a circle of streets and open space on the outside.
Lin said: "Those who trespass will die, and those who cannot enter will not be killed. If more than half of the dead are dead, none of you will be able to go back. Don't blame me for not warning you." After saying that, he stepped back and disappeared into the mist.
This strange move actually stopped the advancing army. In order to boost morale, the nobles shouted: "Don't be afraid, this is just a deception. Go forward! Go forward! Whether you are captured alive or beheaded, there will be rewards!"
