144 The Last Mercy

Aimiye's voice was like thunder, shaking the entire vast battlefield, and no one dared to speak.

The sword mark on the ground was not very deep, but in the eyes of everyone around it, its shocking power was no less than a shocking natural chasm.

"Whether it's life or death, you decide for yourself."

Aimiye's words echoed in the air for a long time, like a heavy hammer, with the ability to directly hit other people's hearts.

The undead didn't dare to take another step forward.

They huddled back obediently, waiting for the leader to speak.

Su Ran had been secretly observing behind Aimiye.

He probably figured out that the black-robed swordsman standing at the front of the undead army was their leader.

But through Aimiye's flying hair, Su Ran saw the lips that were faintly exposed under the hood of the black-robed swordsman, but they raised slightly.

He didn't say anything, just waved his hand.

A swordsman wearing a skull mask walked out of the army.

Carrying a very heavy-looking large sack, he walked up to Ai Miye alone.

"Introduce yourself, Qiangwei, the great swordsman and the seventh missionary of the Church of Thorns."

To Su Ran's surprise, when the masked man spoke, it turned out to be a woman's deep voice.

"I have heard about the reputation of the Queen for a long time, but today I saw it with my own eyes. She is indeed as heroic as the rumors say."

"But we don't want to be enemies with you."

"As long as the female monarch is willing to give us what we want, the grudges between us and the light elves will be wiped out."

Rose said.

"Isn't what you want just seeds?" Aimiye said coldly, "With all due respect, anything can be negotiated, but only seeds are absolutely impossible."

"Then there's nothing more to say."

Qiangwei took off the sack and threw it in front of Aimiye.

The next moment, Ai Miye's face suddenly turned cold.

Because several heads rolled out of the sack one after another.

Even though the muscles on their faces were stiff, Ai Miye could still recognize that these were her trusted swordsmen.

Before she left the city-state, they were all her personal guards and had a very deep relationship with them.

Unexpectedly, when the war broke out, they all stepped onto the front line and died under the sword of the undead army.

Qiangwei stepped forward and kicked a few times, causing all the heads inside to roll out.

"Doesn't everything look familiar?"

"Dear Lady Jun?"

Qiangwei laughed out loud.

"Where's Eisen?"

Aimiye asked in a deep voice.

She looked at all the heads on the ground, but she couldn't find Eisen's one.

"Eisen?"

Qiangwei tilted her head, thinking,

"Oh~ I remember, it's the old immortal elf swordsman captain, right?"

"Haha, he is indeed a very classy man."

"While you were away, he charged so fiercely that he killed hundreds of our skeleton swordsmen alone. He was so strong that I was a little scared."

"When he finally knelt down in front of me, he yelled some stupid line like, 'Our queen will definitely come back.'"

"But this old man really got it right, you actually came back."

"But what's the use?"

"Even if you have already obtained the seeds, so what?"

"Now that troops are approaching the city and we are surrounded by enemies on all sides, can you really defeat ten thousand with one person?"

Qiangwei sneered, pulled out a sword from behind, and threw it in front of Aimi Ye.

It's Eisen's sword.

The ruby ​​inlaid on the sword grid was still glowing slightly.

"Do you want to save his life?"

Qiangwei said slowly,

"If you want, just hand over the seeds."

"If you are willing to cooperate, Aisen will not die, and neither will the thousands of people behind you."

"What do you think, noble Elf Queen?"

Aimiye fell silent.

Even though her face still had an expression of indifference like an iceberg, Su Ran knew that at this moment, her heart had been shaken.

Because her body was trembling.

But she was trying her best to restrain herself, so no one around her could tell.

Only Su Ran, who was leaning behind her, saw all this.

Su Ran's fists clenched unconsciously.

Swordsman Aisen has been guarding her family since she was a child, and to her, he has long been no different than a relative.

What a despicable and shameless act it is to threaten the life of a loved one?

For Aimiye, this is not a choice, but a torment!

If she refuses the other party's request, she can only watch Eisen die.

But handing over the seeds to others is equivalent to giving up the fate of the city-state.

Her hand suddenly exerted force, and she tightened her grip on the hilt of the Sword in the Stone, almost pulling out the sword.

But a hand suddenly grabbed her wrist!

Aimi Ye was suddenly startled and suddenly calmed down.

Su Ran remained silent, but used body language to regain her consciousness.

The army of light behind them is still standing in the distance, and in front of them is the dark army of undead.

Once the sword is drawn, the consequences will be disastrous.

Not to mention that the unpredictable black-robed swordsman might still be an opponent they couldn't deal with.

"I'll give you one last day to think about it."

"Tomorrow morning, we will bring the people, and you will bring the seeds, handing over the people with one hand and the goods with the other."

"I hope that the respected lady will not disappoint us."

"If nothing else happens, this may be our last mercy."

After saying that, Qiangwei put her hand in front of her neck, slowly made a gesture of cutting her throat, then turned around and retreated to the black-robed swordsman's side.

The black-robed swordsman nodded, and the surrounding undead quickly stepped forward and surrounded the two men in the center of the army.

With the sound of a mighty march, the undead army withdrew from the battlefield.

After the undead army left, Aimiye turned back on his unicorn and led the remaining elven army back to the city-state.

"Retreating, the Queen drove back the undead army!"

"As expected of a queen, the city can be saved!"

"Next, it's time for the queen to personally lead her troops to eliminate the enemies in the city-state!"

The swordsmen on the city wall cheered again, hugged each other, and cried with joy.

Li Luo also breathed a sigh of relief.

But I always feel... things don't seem that simple.

"What are you going to do?"

The unicorn galloped forward, and Su Ran asked Ai Miye in a low voice.

Xiaoye, who was lying on her head, didn't seem to understand what was going on. She just blinked her big cute eyes and kept making cute mumbling sounds.

Su Ran smiled helplessly, thinking that this little guy might not know that she herself was the cause of all this.

"I don't know yet." Ai Miye's voice was a little hoarse. "I even kind of hope that you didn't stop me when I drew my sword just now."

The west city gate slowly opened, and overwhelming cheers poured down from the city wall.

The people of the city-state shouted and shouted in unison to welcome Aimi Ye's return.

Only Su Ran knew that this was not the so-called triumph.

It's just the last calm before the storm.
