Chapter 713 Vortex I
The battle still continues.
Perhaps because intelligent monsters are indeed more difficult to deal with, after encountering a head-on attack in the early trial, the activated forest immediately ordered the mutated monsters to retreat. And before the sun rose, they had quietly disappeared in the
On the other side of the hillside.
However, the elves did not pursue this because they had learned from Orfen that although these mutated monsters looked like undead creatures, they were not actually undead creatures, but more like some kind of living creature.
Because of this, after confirming that the mutated creatures had left, the elves immediately began to recuperate and prepare for the next battle.
But at this moment, a quarrel started inside the camp.
"Secure the defensive line? Are you all mentally ill?"
Patilina slapped her palm on the table, unabashedly showing her contempt and contempt for the group of elves in front of her who were already ashen-faced.
"As it is now, where do you plan to hold the defense line? There are no concrete fortifications here, let alone bunkers and machine guns. Are you planning to rely on these broken trees to defend? The opponent is a monster, and he is still covered in dirt.
Monsters full of plague... Speaking of which..."
As she spoke, Patilina glanced at the charred corpses in the distance.
"What are you going to do with those bodies?"
Hearing this question, the leader of the elf princess also frowned slightly. She had to admit that although Patilina's words were unpleasant, the problem in front of her was indeed real. So after thinking for a moment, she
Then he opened his mouth to answer.
"We will return them to the embrace of Mother Earth..."
However, before the elf princess could finish speaking, Patilina interrupted her unceremoniously.
"Haha? Are you mentally ill? Are you going to bury them? Have you understood the situation? These things are virions infected by the plague, and every corpse is full of viruses. You don't want to do this.
You plan to burn it, but you actually want to bury it. Do you have pig brains in your head?"
"Discourteous!! How can you speak to Her Royal Highness like this?"
At this time, the other people standing behind the elf princess couldn't help but speak. An elf wearing leather armor stood out, frowned and stared at Patilina, and then started to accuse.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess must have her considerations, and this is also the tradition of our elves..."
"With such a tradition, you really deserve to die! A bunch of stupid pigs, if you hadn't buried those corpses everywhere, they wouldn't be running around... No wonder you have to ask for help from outside. According to your stubborn behavior,
With all the means, can we still finish the battle without suffering death?"
"you…………!!"
"Please wait a moment, Miss Patilina."
Seeing that the tension between the two sides was getting stronger and stronger, Ellie had to step forward to mediate. In fact, deep down in her heart, she felt the same way about Patilina's words. Although Patilina's words were very vicious, if those words were removed, it would completely
Apart from the subjectively irritating words, she pointed directly to the center point. In fact, Ellie also noticed this after coming to the Elf Forest. That is, although the elves have high skills, they are not very good at it.
In fact, he and other outsiders do not trust him, and among the elves, the traditional power is very strong. For example, those corpses that died of the plague should be burned according to human rules. But in the
Among the elves, they would choose to bury these corpses in the ground and water. They believe that the earth and rivers can protect the souls of those who died from illness and disease. To be honest, Ellie couldn't believe it when she heard this.
.Because according to her, this is simply equivalent to the second spread of the plague. That is to say, the elves stopped this behavior after Orphen brought back the news that corpses infected by the plague would mutate.
But now it seems that they are obviously "returning to their old ways".
In fact, Ellie also agrees with Patilina's opinion. It's not that she doesn't understand the Elf Princess's thoughts. As a saint, Ellie naturally hopes that those tortured souls can rest in peace. But she also knows very well that she must do something in an emergency.
It's an extraordinary thing. Sometimes in order to protect more people, you have to make some sacrifices. In fact, Ellie also wanted to talk to the elf princess about this issue, but as an outsider, her identity seemed a bit embarrassing and she couldn't find her.
When is the right time to speak up? And now, since Patilina has mentioned this issue, Ellie can express her opinion smoothly.
"Both of you, please calm down. We all know that the problem at hand is serious, and Miss Patilina is doing it for everyone's good. Indeed, the epidemic here looks different... Your Highness Princess... I know you want to
say what."
Seeing the elf princess opening her mouth to say something, Ellie hurriedly raised her hand to signal her to wait, and then continued.
"I understand very well that you want to use the sacred power of the holy river to drive away the plague. But to be honest, I am worried about whether this will be effective. Because according to our observations during this period, even the priest's dispelling skills are not very effective.
It is best to remove this plague. This is one of the reasons why it can spread on a large scale, but we are unable to do anything. So even if you want to use the holy river, I am a little worried about whether the water of the holy river can really eliminate the plague...
…”
I have to admit that, as a saint, Ellie's speaking skills are indeed very good. With her persuasion, the elf princess's originally frowning brows gradually relaxed, but the elves behind her were still a little bit confused.
The children were dissatisfied, but since Her Royal Highness the Princess did not speak, they would not say anything more.
As for Patilina - she would not give Ellie any face. In fact, when Ellie started talking "nonsense", Patilina had already left the camp and returned with Aelinster.
Arrive at your tent.
"They are just a bunch of pigs! Irene, you have to watch out. Don't imitate anyone else from this group of idiot elves in the future. Damn it, if it weren't for the master's order, I wouldn't care if they died... Forget it,
Anyway, we are not here to care about their life or death!"
As she spoke, Patilina sat down against the stone and yawned loudly. Then she blinked her eyes, and then looked at Aelinster as if she suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Eileen, what did those bastards do with the corpses before? I mean the ones who died in the battle."
(this……………)
Hearing Patilina's sudden inquiry, Irene was stunned for a moment, but as the "central brain" of the entire battlefield, she would definitely not forget this kind of thing, so after thinking for a moment,
Eileenste still answered obediently.
(They said it seemed to be buried in the resting place...)
"What the hell is this place close to us?"
(No, I heard it's on the other side of the camp...)
"That's good."
After hearing this, Patilina nodded with satisfaction, and then she saw the little guy turned over and lay down on the soft cushion.
"Okay, it's time to eat and sleep. There's nothing wrong with us. Anyway, if you are going to be unlucky, they will be the first to be unlucky."
The night is getting darker.
When Ellie walked out of the camp again, it was already evening. The blood-red sunset cast the last ray of sunlight on the other side of the ridge, dyeing the entire sky blood red. But at this moment, Ellie just felt
Deeply exhausted, until the end, she could not reach an agreement with Viconia on how to deal with the corpses on the battlefield. Initially, Ellie thought this was simply because the elves were not mentally prepared for such an idea, but later
When she talked with the Naga Priest, she was surprised to learn that someone had already made similar suggestions to the elves before. However, the suggestions seemed a bit radical to the elves - because the other party actually
They were asked to burn an isolation belt with their own hands to prevent the further spread of the plague.
When she heard this suggestion at first, Ellie was also shocked. But then she immediately realized that although this suggestion sounded bold, it was very constructive and feasible. Not only that, from the battles in the past few days,
, Ellie also found that such a suggestion is indeed very important. You must know that the mutated monsters are now using the cover of the dense forest to attack them unscrupulously. To be honest, in the late stage of yesterday's battle, many Paladins even instinctively shrank their defense lines.
, moving closer to Patilina. Why? It’s because the little guy’s shelling directly burned the dense forest in front of her, making it much easier for others to deal with the enemy. At least.
They no longer have to think about whether their enemies are coming out of trees or bushes.
And if the elves can really burn an isolation belt according to this suggestion, then it will be easier for them to defend, instead of being as passive as they are now. And...fire is always the best way to eliminate the plague.
only………
Thinking of this, Ellie couldn't help but sigh. She just learned from the Naga Priest that the elf who made the suggestion has left here. This is really a pity, although Ellie has not met him yet.
However, she has a deep understanding of the stubbornness and conservativeness of the elves in the past few days. Among this group of elves, there can be such an eclectic alternative, which really makes Ellie curious. Not to mention Lian Na
The Naga Priest also praised her quite a lot. She knew her companions very well. If he was not really capable, the Naga Priest would never look at her twice. But now, even she admires that elf so much.
It shows that the other party must have something outstanding.
But such a talented person left because of the prejudice of the elves... This is really a pity...
Thinking of this, Ai Li sighed again, then she turned around and prepared to leave.
