Chapter 404: We Really Encountered the Elf Slave Catching Group
Elf Forest,
"Did you make a mistake?"
Eluza looked at Li Si standing in front of her with great vigilance. His relaxed posture seemed as if the attack of herself and others did not pose any threat to him at all.
Li Si did not make any move, but spread his hands and put away the long sword in his hand.
"If I am a slave-hunting team, how could Cecil help me?"
Li Si pointed to Cecil who was holding the staff behind him and was a little dazed, and said to Erza.
"Oh oh oh!"
Cecil heard what Li Si said, and then reacted, nodded and said:
"It's like this, Mr. Li Si is the guard I hired, not a slave-hunting team."
After that, Cecil glanced at Li Si.
She really didn't expect Li Si to be so strong when facing the Elf Guard.
It was just a battle in an instant. The members of the Elf Guard, who were considered elite among the elves, had no power to fight back in front of Li Si, and this was even when Li Si was holding back.
Even if Li Si was a gold-level strongman, these fellows shouldn't be crushed like this, right?
"This"
Elusa looked at Li Si and Cecil, and there was no way to tell them apart in a short time.
But she couldn't help but believe it a little.
If the young man named Li Si in front of her was really a slave-hunting team, it would be impossible for him to stop and talk to her slowly.
Anyway, they had no power to resist.
But Erza didn't believe Li Si just like that. After all, who knew if Li Si had other purposes.
Erza didn't respond, but looked at Li Si warily, slowly retreated, pulled up Pedros who was wrapped in the canopy and in a coma, and retreated to the distance.
The monk Gadri fainted at Li Si's feet, and Erza had no idea to approach Li Si and his companions.
Li Si looked at Erza who was moving cautiously in silence.
Why do I feel like I have become a big villain?
Feeling that there was another aura locked on him in the distance, Li Si frowned and looked at a lush tree in the distance.
Or the elf ranger before?
It's not over yet?
Li Si controlled his terrifying killing intent to spread in the direction he locked onto.
Noticing that the hostile aura disappeared instantly, Li Si nodded with satisfaction, turned to Cecil and said:
"Let's go, it's nothing anyway."
"Do you need me to treat them?"
Cecil hesitated and looked at the bald fellow tribesman lying on the ground.
"No, I didn't use any force at all, they just fainted and recovered quickly."
Li Si said indifferently, and by the way, he picked up Gadri from the ground and put him on a tree stump beside him to watch.
"Okay."
Seeing this, Cecil felt that there was really no need, so he followed Li Si and left.
After a while,
a slender figure appeared beside Gadri, squatting down to check Gadri.
After carefully observing the surroundings, Erza said to the distance:
"Come out, that person is indeed gone."
"Gadri is not in a big deal."
After the voice fell, another figure carrying the elf warrior jumped down from the tree.
Elsa put Pedros next to Gadri, panting and saying:
"Huh, he's really gone. Did we really make a mistake?"
As an elf ranger, Elsa is not very strong. Fortunately, Pedros is an elf warrior and is relatively light, otherwise she really can't move him alone.
"It should be a mistake."
Elusa nodded, her face a little unhappy.
"I just noticed that blonde elf, his expression is normal, he should not be controlled by some enchantment spell."
"Huh, this is difficult."
Elsa showed a bitter smile on her face, covering her clean forehead with her right hand.
"It's over. I've already informed Lord Valdivia."
"It's not your fault. If it were me, I would have chosen to inform Lord Valdivia."
Eluza comforted her companions and said:
"After all, that human is a little abnormally strong."
"I'm wondering if my martial arts skills were learned in vain. They're of no use at all."
"Wait, I just don't know where that person is going with the elves?"
Elsa sat on the ground, spread her hands and supported the ground and sighed:
"The only good news may be that the person really doesn't seem to be hostile to us."
"I really don't want to see this person again when I'm chasing those disgusting slave hunting teams."
Thinking of the look Li Si cast before he left, and the terrifying murderous intent that made her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar, Elsa couldn't help but shudder.
Two days later, in the Akara Valley of the Forest of Elves,
the clear stream was like a silver ribbon, winding through the deep valley. The gurgling stream was like the sound of nature, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
The woods on both sides are dense and lush. The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled light and shadows, adding a bit of mystery and vitality to this quiet river valley.
The air in the valley is particularly fresh, mixed with the fragrance of soil and plants, making people can't help but take a deep breath, as if to wash away the dust in their hearts. In this quiet and beautiful river valley, it seems that time has slowed down, making people intoxicated and unwilling to leave.
This is already deep in the forest of elves, rarely visited by people, even elves rarely pass by here.
But today the tranquility of this valley was broken, and the arrival of the uninvited guests brought new restlessness.
In Li Si's eyes, on the flat ground beside the stream, a team of mercenaries was resting.
A team of five mercenaries of different professions sat cross-legged on the ground, eating simple food and drinking water.
While recovering their strength as soon as possible, they were also vigilantly observing the movements around them.
In the middle of the five people, two people in black robes were lying on the ground, their bodies covered tightly.
"Slave-catching team."
Standing above the valley, Li Si touched his chin with his right hand and looked at the situation below.
Although his eyes did not have the ability to see through, judging from the figures of the two people in black robes, they should be slender elf girls.
The slave-catching team is like this, each team will not have many members, and they are all elite teams.
Because in the Forest of Elves, no matter which force it is, it is impossible to fight against the elves.
So those teams that want to capture elves will leave the Forest of Elves as quickly as possible after catching the elves.
Outside the Elf Forest, it would be too difficult for the Elf Guard to continue tracking.
Therefore, except for the necessary rest and recovery time, these people will not waste any time.
Even the elves will be stunned by their special means to reduce the trouble of taking them out of the forest.
For them, time is the key to escape from the Elf Forest and earn huge rewards.
Li Si is very familiar with the action habits of these slave-hunting teams. In his previous life, he also received commissions from the elves to hunt down slave-hunting teams, and the rewards were quite generous.
At that time, because of the participation of most players, the slave-hunting teams were chased in a mess, and even the market for elf slaves was hit hard.
For Li Si, he naturally couldn't stand what these slave-hunting teams did.
You know, these slave-hunting teams often attack the villages of elves in order to capture more precious and beautiful elf slaves.
But in order to keep the speed of leaving the Elf Forest, they can only take a few elves with them in many cases, and it is inevitable that many elves will be injured and killed in the process.
Of course, this behavior of treating elves as commodities is what makes the elves most angry and hateful.
Although Li Si didn't like this kind of behavior, in his home, even the servants who served Li Si could get the respect they deserved.
However, Li Si also knew that even if he became a legendary strongman, it was unrealistic to stop the existence of slave-hunting teams and even slave trade.
Even so, Li Si would not think of turning a blind eye and letting it go.
If you are not strong enough, it is difficult to help the world;
If you see injustice on the road, you should draw your sword to help;
Do your best to have a clear conscience
Just when Li Si was thinking, Cecil walked to her side and whispered:
"Mr. Li Si, can you help those two elves?"
During the past few days of rushing on the road, Li Si was recognized by Cecil for both his strength and his character.
She also regarded Li Si as a friend from the bottom of her heart, unlike those humans who had bad intentions towards her.
"No problem."
Li Si nodded. Even without Cecil's request, he was going to take action.
"Thank you so much."
Cecil looked at Li Si with green eyes and a smile on her face.
At this moment, the system sounded.
——
Ding~
[You triggered a gold-level mission! ]
[Gold-level commissioned mission: Defeat the Elf Slave Catchers]
[Mission requirements: Defeat the Elf Slave Catchers [Black Panther] and ensure the survival of two elves! ]
[Mission rewards: 1000w experience points, Cecil's favorability +30, specialty [Justice Sanction]]——
Hmm?
Li Si looked at the system panel in front of him and was a little surprised.
The mission was actually triggered, and it was a gold-level mission.
So there should be a gold-level professional among the five people.
However, Li Si is too far away now and can't detect useful information.
However, the experience point reward is only 10 million, and it should not be a very strong existence.
For Li Si now, ordinary gold-level is far from his opponent.
"I'm going over, you hide first."
Li Si said to Cecil.
Cecil nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would never drag his feet.
Li Si didn't care. He had already placed a special space mark on Cecil's body, which allowed him to know Cecil's location in real time.
At the same time, he also summoned the [Mirror Body] clone, which followed Cecil in stealth.
After all, Li Si's most important clue was still on Cecil. He didn't want to find that Cecil, a living elf, was missing after he came back from cleaning up the slave-hunting teams.
Be fully prepared in case of emergency.
Li Si slowly walked towards the river valley.
After escaping Cecil's sight, Li Si entered stealth mode and slowly moved towards the slave-hunting team.
Wilbur was a little absent-minded.
He took out the water bag and wanted to drink another sip of water, but found that the remaining water in it had just been drunk without knowing it.
For some reason, this situation made him a little irritated.
He threw the water bag in his hand on the ground. Even though he could get water from the stream not far away, the boredom in his heart made him a little gloomy and he didn't want to move at all.
"Boss Wilbur, here you go."
The subordinate beside him noticed Wilbur's unhappy expression and quickly handed his water bag to Wilbur. He took Wilbur's water bag and walked towards the stream.
Wilbur, as a gold-level hunter, is the leader of the [Black Panther] slave-hunting group.
Although capturing elf slaves is a bloody act and needs to face the pursuit of those elf guards, the profits are too lucrative.
So lucrative that even a gold-level hunter like him can't help but be tempted.
This is much easier than exploring secrets and hunting monsters.
As for those elf guards, as a hunter who has wandered in the Elf Forest for a long time, he is quite familiar with the habits and actions of those elves.
Although those elves are generally powerful, they are a bit stubborn and don't know how to adapt.
He has successfully escaped the pursuit of the Elf Guards many times and successfully returned to the human kingdom to make huge profits.
This time will be the same!
What's more, the goods this time are much better than before.
Wilbur's eyes fell on the two fainted elves.
Coincidentally, his target this time was an elven village in the Elf Forest that he had scouted in advance.
But he suddenly met these two lone elven girls on the road.
Wilbur boasted that he had seen many beautiful elven girls, but he was still shocked by the beauty of one of the girls.
If he hadn't thought that this elven girl would bring him more benefits, he would even want to make her his personal pet.
He took a sip of water, and the cool liquid slid down his throat into his chest, but Wilbur felt that the gloom in his chest became even stronger.
What's going on?
Wilbur came back to his senses from the gold coins that were within his reach, and hesitated in his heart.
There's a problem!
As a gold-level hunter, he was still very confident in his premonition.
Could it be that the elven guards were chasing us?
"Get up, set off now!"
Wilbur ordered his men.
"Wilbur, boss, just rested for a while?"
The companion who had just fetched water for Wilbur was a little puzzled and asked in a low voice.
"Listen to me, hurry up and prepare to go."
Wilbur said without allowing any objection. There would be plenty of time to rest after leaving the Elf Forest.
The others saw that Wilbur had made up his mind, so they stopped talking.
After all, in the slave-hunting group, Wilbur, who was the strongest, had the final say.
Everyone packed up their things, and two warriors carried an elf on their shoulders respectively, preparing to leave the 9 valleys.
Bang!
The crisp sound of the bowstring suddenly rang out.
A flashing black arrow shot out from the deep forest, and even Wilbur didn't react. In an instant, it hit the warrior carrying the elf in the middle of his forehead.
"I"
The warrior hadn't reacted yet. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, but a sharp pain came, and his consciousness was instantly swallowed by darkness.
Looking at his companions limp on the ground, the elves on his body also rolled to the side.
Wilbur's eyes became fierce, and the bronze longbow on his back appeared in his hand, and an arrow shot towards the place where the bowstring sound came from just now.
