Riding on Lothkar, Yang Yu ran around the periphery of the Elf Forest. He was very surprised that the orc soldiers stationed outside the Elf Forest were completely nowhere to be seen.
Yang Yu originally thought that he was unlucky and failed to find the orc soldiers. He returned along the original route and conducted a detailed search, but Yang Yu still did not see any hair of the orc soldiers and only found traces of their stationing.
Shit, where's the experience pack? It's gone just like that!
Yang Yu was puzzled. After thinking about it, he felt that it was most likely because the war between Wansheng Kingdom and Rose Empire was gradually escalating. They had to sacrifice the safety of some residents and send the soldiers guarding the border into battle.
If it is true as I think, this is an extremely dangerous signal and I must hurry up and join the army.
It's too late. Wouldn't it be like Chongzhen was hanged on the crooked tree before he bravely joined the army, without any room for counterattack
When things develop to that point, all I can do is watch so many walking experience packs and racial essences go to waste.
However, we cannot completely confirm that this is the case at present.
Perhaps the Elf Queen once again rejected Wansheng's invitation to war, causing Wansheng to believe that it was not profitable, so they withdrew the orc soldiers who had been guarding the elves.
If Yang Yu was the king of Wansheng Kingdom, he would definitely make the same choice.
After all, the situation is already so dangerous that investing too much in a race that will not benefit you is purely wishful thinking.
At most, out of humanitarianism, or to make it easier for them to meet again in the future, one or two teams would be left behind to patrol.
However, Yang Yu did not expect that the timing was so perfect.
"It's not that when we arrived, an envoy from Wansheng entered and communicated with the queen, confirming her attitude towards the war..."
Yang Yu secretly complained, if that was the case, he really missed an opportunity to hook up with the upper class.
But it's not worth feeling sorry for. The messenger must be in a bad mood after being rejected by the queen. She would ignore the unknown messenger and might even be wary of him because he is a human.
If he could ask the queen again, Yang Yu would be able to confirm whether it was the first or the second possibility. However, if he went back to Fallen Feather City now, he would only be attacked by the elves.
His experience pack was gone, but although he felt helpless, Yang Yu still planned to continue with his original plan.
Fortunately, there are many monsters in the Elf Forest. Although hunting monsters is slow, you can still gain a lot of experience. By the way, you can also train the combat capabilities of Lothkar and He Meng.
Leaving aside Lothcar, He Meng was also unusually motivated. It was indeed different after gaining favorability.
During the break, He Meng produced a small hand from his body, picked up a branch, first drew a slime on the ground, then drew a person with an arrow in the middle.
Of course Yang Yu understood what He Meng meant. This must be a sign of the start of the Slime King mission that he had coveted for a long time.
However, although he could do He Meng's big branch quest, Yang Yu decided to take it slow and resolve the war between Wansheng Kingdom and Luoze Empire first before doing He Meng's mission. After all, it is quite inconvenient to run back to the Novice Village and then run back.
So, Yang Yu told He Meng that he would definitely help it, and asked it to wait a little longer until his strength was sufficient before helping it.
He Meng originally wanted to say something, but when he saw the four-leaf clover in Yang Yu's hand and thought of the communication barrier between them, he gave up and started chewing the fragrant four-leaf clover.
After a few days of running around, Yang Yu finally found time to read "Elf Chronicles" carefully.
Sitting by the campfire, Yang Yu leaned against the huge Lotkar, turned the pages of the book, and read the words on it with the help of the firelight.
It was not written in ancient language, but in modern characters that Yang Yu could understand, as if it was specifically shown to outsiders.
The elves are a much younger race than imagined.
Although the time span is as long as ten thousand years, there are only twelve generations passed down to the Elf Queen Elena. Excluding the first three generations of Elf Queens and Elena, the reign of each generation of queens has exceeded a thousand years.
Events that happened in various eras are also recorded based on the period of the queen's reign.
The first half of the book, which is about the first three generations of elven queens, is rather confusing and vague. However, starting from the fourth generation of queens, the entire book begins to be written in chronological order. Reading it line by line is not as interesting as one might imagine. On the contrary, it is quite boring.
Only major events would have detailed descriptions, which saved Yang Yu a lot of time in filtering information.
With just a quick glance, Yang Yu could find many major events.
It is those major events that constitute the legends passed down orally among the elves, and also become the source of many elven festivals.
It is worth mentioning that Yang Yu found records about the demons invading this world.
The earliest record of the demons appeared in the year 3052 of the Elven calendar, more than 6,000 years ago. The opening of the gate to the demon world is also described in detail in the chronicles of the elves.
"In the distant sky, black clouds gathered together to form a vortex. The edges of the black clouds were rendered red, and the vortex tore through the sky. Finally, a huge white beam of light swooped down from the center of the vortex, piercing into the sea and causing huge waves.
A piece of black land rose from the bottom of the sea, and the beam of light split to the left and right, turning into a green door. Various demons crossed the green door, and used the black continent as their base, and built tall and magnificent buildings there. We call it the 'Demon King's City'. "
The description of the devil's coming is quite detailed, as if you had seen it with your own eyes.
Yang Yu noticed one thing, that the place where the devil descended was on the sea, and the place where the elves were located was far away from the sea no matter from which direction.
In the past, the elves were widely distributed, extending to the edge of the sea, or perhaps the elves heard this description from other races.
Or maybe the Elf Queen was lying. In the past, the elves' rule over the elves was not as strict as it is now. They could go to every corner of the world without worrying about being driven out by the elves. They could return to the elf village at any time...
Apart from the arrival of the devil, the book does not describe the life of the elves at that time, nor does it spend any time describing it, making it extremely difficult to judge.
Flipping through the pages one by one, Yang Yu discovered that the Devil's arrival occurred quite frequently.
The arrival of the Demon King in this world seems to happen every once in a while, and the elves will appropriately help the heroes of that generation.
As he was flipping through the pages, Yang Yu came to the page of the previous elf queen, Mingtu Saiqiute. The queen before Elena had ruled for nearly two thousand years.
