After the female elf escaped, Mo Xiao and others hurriedly ran to Gui Li to support him. Although the arrow was barely blocked, he also suffered internal injuries.
"What kind of hidden weapon are you using?"
Gui Li looked at Mo Xiao in surprise. He had been to many places before, and there was absolutely no problem in saying that he was well-informed, but whether it was instant noodles or the hidden weapon in front of him, they were things he had never heard of or seen before.
He suspected that his initial guess about Mo Xiao's origins... might have been wrong.
Mo Xiao didn't answer. He checked for a while, and after seeing that there was no serious problem, he dragged him into the church. As he walked, he reminded him: "If you have time to ask these questions, why don't you hurry up and chase the elf with us? This time
If she escapes, if she notices the hair strands I left behind, it will be difficult to pursue her in the future."
"I know, but why are we going this way?" Gui Li was full of confusion at first, and then immediately realized the problem, "Did she use reverse summoning again to trick us into going out?"
Ye Xiaoying looked at the towering church and said, "It should be that her position changed in an instant."
Everyone pushed open the main door and entered the church. The first thing they saw was a straight aisle that could accommodate four or five people walking side by side. There were rows of seats on both sides of the aisle. At the end of the aisle was a podium. Behind the podium,
The sculpture depicts a female figure holding a plant seedling in her hands.
The light inside the church is very dark, with only a little light coming from the leaf-type windows on the walls on both sides. There is no one in the lobby, and there is a thin layer of fine gray on some seats.
Ye Xiaoying sensed that the female elf was moving downwards, and they looked around, but could not find a way to the bottom.
Everyone searched inside the church, and soon Patty discovered the problem. He called everyone and pointed to a wall on the side of the church and said: "Come here, there is the smell of blood behind the wall."
As a vampire, she is most sensitive to the smell of blood. Since she said so, there must be a passage behind the wall in front of them.
"Back off everyone..." Reyes pushed aside the crowd and walked to the wall. Then he couldn't find any mechanism button. His arm suddenly became thicker, and he raised his fist and smashed against the wall.<
/p>
Then a wide passage just appeared.
"You dare to say that this guy is a mage again?" Gui Li kept glancing at Reyes, his eyes indescribably weird.
"Just ignore it, just ignore it, the highlanders... are always tougher than us." Mo Xiao laughed and dragged Gui Li, who was full of question marks, into the passage. They made such a big noise.
You must move quickly.
Patty was right. There was indeed blood stains in the passage, and everyone also heard some faint sounds from the front. Moreover, there was pyroxene lighting in the passage, and the light was abundant, much brighter than inside the church.
This passage was on a slope, so everyone kept their guard up and walked down. As they moved forward, the terrain became flatter and flatter. When it completely turned into flat ground, they finally found the real owner they were looking for.
This should be the cellar of the church. In addition to the female elf they are looking for, there are nine well-behaved and thinly dressed children huddled on straw-like plants to rest. The oldest of them is only seven or eight years old, and the youngest is only three or four years old.
, these children all have a pair of pointed ears. It is obvious that they are all elves.
The cellar is square and square, with some targets for archery placed on the walls on both sides, some daily utensils placed in the corners, several pieces of pyroxene inlaid on the top of the head for lighting, and the floor is paved with a cement-like material.
Looking further inside, Gui Li discovered the bags of food they had stolen.
As for the female elf, she was leaning silently against the wall. Next to her lay a small beast with two wings on its back and a griffin body half a meter long. A little girl about six or seven years old was helping her take off her shoulders.
Clothes to treat wounds.
Seeing Mo Xiao and the others arriving, the female elf's pale face suddenly turned ashen. She didn't understand why the enemy could find her so quickly. She didn't have time to think about it now, so she hurriedly struggled to stand up.
"I advise you not to resist in vain."
Mo Xiao raised his eyelids, took out his pistol, and fired several shots into the air. The threat was self-evident, just like a terrorist.
The female elf froze on the spot. After being shot, she naturally understood the power of the pistol. Even if she was not injured, it would be very difficult to face such a weapon.
"Is this lion heron your contract beast? It must be the one who stole the food." Gui Li looked around and said, "There are so many elves hidden under the cellar of the temple and church..."
The noises made by several people woke up these sleeping elves. Their unanimous reaction when seeing strangers was fear. From the eyes of these children, Mo Xiao could clearly perceive such emotions.
Patty frowned, waved her hand and sent out a burst of red mist, and the child who had just woken up fell asleep again.
"Let them go!"
Seeing this scene, the female elf immediately panicked, and she roared angrily.
"I will return the food to you. You can even do whatever you want me to do. Don't embarrass these children!"
Patty put her index finger upright on her lips: "Don't worry, I just let them continue to sleep, and they will wake up soon."
"Sister Emily, are they...are they bad guys?" The little girl who was helping the female elf treat her wounds hid behind her and asked in fear.
The female elf, Emily, was speechless for a moment. She didn't know how to answer this question. After all, she was the one who stole the thing, and the owner just came to her door. How could she have the face to call others a bad guy?
She sighed, gently rubbed the little girl's head, and shook her head.
Guili asked: "You stole...borrowed the food in our village for these children?"
Emily was stunned. She didn't expect that the other party didn't use the word "steal".
Gui Li gently patted Mo Xiao's gun-holding hand and signaled him to put away the weapon: "I have traveled to the mainland before and accepted the kindness of the elves. Let's talk about it now."
"Yuffie, go and play. There is a fairy tale book I bought for you on the wooden shelf over there. My sister wants to discuss something with others."
Emily gently touched the cheek of the little girl next to her. After the latter walked to the corner with a worried mood, she turned her head and looked at everyone: "What do you want to talk about."
"Where did these children come from? As the Hiscona Windrunner among the high elves, why did you end up here? Why don't you go back to the Elf Forest."
Gui Li also gasped and sat down cross-legged not far from Emily. He looked at her with bright eyes.
Emily's eyes darkened, and her tone was sad: "The Forest of Elves has been abandoned, and the elves you can see now are homeless wanderers. Even though I am a high elf, the same is true." p>
Guili was shocked when he heard this: "No race can be found in the Elf Forest except the elves themselves. Why should it be abandoned? Where are the other tribes?"
"But the fact is that there was a sudden disaster more than ten years ago. All the elves disappeared completely with that disaster. I only survived because of good luck."
"Could it be that these children are also..."
Emily lowered her head and said in a low voice: "After the elves are born, they have to participate in a holy spring baptism before they reach adulthood. These children were the ones I was responsible for at the time, and they were lucky enough to escape like me. Then we have been wandering around until today.
