Chapter 1,352 Night Attack

In the early morning, Lin returned to the Guest House and noticed an unusual atmosphere in the air, as if he had just experienced the excitement of a big battle...

No, not 'like', but 'at all'! Because someone identified the unusual source as the pungent smell of blood.

The room where I live alone is still intact, but what about other places? Lin calmed down, extended the scope of his magic detection, and immediately discovered that the elves were not staying in their own rooms, but gathered in an open living room. Lin immediately flashed over.

This is a living room that can be used to hold small meetings. The tables and chairs are now rickety. And they were consciously gathered together and stacked into a simple barricade shelter.

Apart from the blood splattered everywhere, no other enemies were seen. The elves were hiding behind the bunker, bandaging each other's wounds.

Lin's sudden appearance did not alarm the elves, because they were sure to judge whether the enemy was friendly or not at the first opportunity. As for this human magician, they were already familiar with it, so naturally they wouldn't be surprised.

But Lin Ke couldn't be as calm as the elves. It didn't matter to him when he saw a group of wounded soldiers. What was more important was that although the number of elves was still sixteen, a lot of them had changed. Lin asked worriedly: "Is anyone injured and sent to hospital? Is it serious?"

A dress full of bloodstains, Miriam stepped forward and said: "Sir, some people were indeed sent away first, but their lives are not in danger. Please don't worry."

"Okay, what's going on? Those nobles are coming? Can you confirm who it is?" Lin asked.

"It's a pity, sir. The people who came are probably just a group of desperadoes. They don't have any identifiable crests on their bodies." Miriam replied.

"Then I didn't ask... Oh, forget it." The reason why someone gave up asking was because he had already discovered the fate of the intruder. Right at the main entrance of the guesthouse, there were a large number of broken bodies and limbs, skewered with spears, spears, swords and other objects, standing densely together. From the equipment point of view, there is no unified standard armed force, and it looks like a group of miscellaneous troops.

This also explains why this living room experienced a fierce battle, but there was no trace of the enemy in the mess. It's fair to say that these elves had already cleaned up the battlefield and brought out all the unsighted intruders for public display.

After taking a quick look, I saw that there were seven or eight different elves following. But this does not mean that there are only seven or eight injured that are serious enough to be evacuated. There may be some unlucky ones who are seriously injured and evacuated as soon as they come to support. So while assisting in the treatment, Lin also asked about the details. He murmured and complained: "Everyone has come in, why don't you retreat first? You were injured in vain."

Miriam would like to explain a few words. However, she noticed that the magician had already moved his mind to other places, so she simply kept silent. The other elves had the same attitude.

The arrogant elves are reluctant to talk to humans unless necessary. When this human being can be on an equal footing with His Majesty the World Tree, the elves may not be proud, but they don't know how to talk to such a 'person'. Therefore, although Lin was respected among the elves, he still felt a sense of alienation.

Of course Lin didn't care about this kind of thing, and he never thought about changing the attitudes of the elves. Anyway, the friendship between gentlemen is as weak as water. When the elves ask me for help, I help myself; when I ask them for help when I need it, they are willing to help, and that is enough. Someone is currently thinking about which side they can use this attack to put pressure on.

The Empress' side is definitely not going to work, and there is no reason to cause trouble for one of her own people. However, the invading enemy has no identification, and it is not easy to just find someone to blame.

Besides, we still don’t know who the number one enemy is. I asked the empress last night, and she said very generously that all titled nobles can be regarded as enemies, and there is no need to worry about hurting one of their own. Some people were speechless in such a situation.

So, just pick an unlucky guy to blame? Someone is thinking seriously. But before Lin could think of any hideous-looking guy who could irritate his eyes, there was another wave of unrest outside the guest house in the early morning.

This time, a nobleman laid out his chariots and horses and led an army, about the size of a large army, to surround the guest house. Although it is not as if they are blocking the sky with banners, it is still overwhelming for a small guest house to be surrounded like this.

Maybe the elves don't have the same means of detection as someone using magic, but they have their own early warning methods. The movements of the soldiers outside were not ignored by the elves. The few who were not injured and had nothing to do, once again raised the mass-produced and enhanced version of the Bow of the Elf King sent by World Tree, and came to the window to look at the scene outside the guest house. .

Miriam, who was the only one with bare hands, took a step closer to the others and did not come to the window. She just stood behind someone who also came to the window. She asked: "Sir, shall we retreat now?" There was an indiscernible flavor in her tone. It's like throwing the complaint they just didn't have time to explain back to someone.

"Well, okay, I was wrong just now. In this situation, you really can't retreat, you can only fight with the people on the opposite side. If you retreat and let them have bad ideas, then the early preparations will be in vain. It takes a lot of effort to get back to the current situation. It's really troublesome." Lin judged helplessly.

Previously, the bank of the Gold Coin Goddess was located elsewhere. If it was attacked by a local lord, she would definitely leave directly. Then delay the start of the other party's bank and wait until the other party feels regretful and is in a good mood. But the situation in the Karlsruhe Empire and Neuquen Imperial City was different.

The position Lin chose was to stand on the same side as the empress and to oppose the nobles. If you turn around and leave because of attacks from some nobodies, wouldn't those old diehards who stand firmly on the conservative side be the proudest?

The empress will also disrupt the original cooperation layout because of her departure. In this way, offending His Majesty is considered a light thing; it is not impossible to make all the preparations overnight, including the empress. Simply the best example of a pig teammate.

As for the one who retreats first, waits for the other party to find nothing, leaves on his own, and then goes back to take over the guest house again. In fact, although this approach protects human life, it gives the other party the opportunity to contact the empty guesthouse, and there is the possibility of making a move.

It's like a lot of fabrication, lies, and all kinds of weird and bizarre stories were compiled in one breath. And because one of our own is not present, we can only let others play freely, and only find opportunities to make amends afterwards.

To know the bank of the Goddess of Gold Coins, what is needed most is people's confidence. This kind of opportunity that may bring trouble to yourself is the most correct thing to do, not to miss any of it to others.

This means that he can only be reckless in the battle in front of him.

A helpless sigh. Lin waved his hand and said: "You guys stay and prepare. Heal your wounds when you need to, and collect weapons when you need to collect weapons. I will handle the things outside."

When someone takes the initiative to take responsibility, other elves will stop complaining about the inconsistent attitude of a certain magician. Although they are not injured, or their injuries are not serious, it does not mean that they will not be tired. A night of fierce fighting and various calculations were very draining of energy and energy.

Without thinking much, Lin casually set up a giant light and shadow magic circle, spinning in the sky above the guest house. Then he flashed to the main entrance of the museum, opened the door, and walked out on two legs.

The giant magic circle rotating in the air did cause a commotion among the nobles' private army for a while. But they soon calmed down. Because the magic circle in the sky was just spinning very slowly and had no effect. If no one is watching, you won't even notice it turning.

The relieved leading noble thought that someone walked out of the guest house on his own initiative. He just thought that the other party was scared and wanted to negotiate a good condition so that they could evacuate safely. After all, the population of elves is just there, and they can't afford to keep dying. So seeking peace is the elves' only chance.

As for the magician who came out, his confident look made the nobles who looked at him sneer secretly. The only outcome for this magician is death, which is an outcome that many people can accept and look forward to.

However, the magician had not yet realized that his fate had been arranged, so he could still smile proudly. This made the leading noble want to see what his face would look like when he knew his final fate?

Unfortunately, the development of things is different from what most people imagined. Lin walked past the special art installations on display and came to the forefront, where he faced off against the nobles and their private armies. He was not begging for mercy, but asking: "My lord, why are you here?"

The noble pointed at the mess behind Lin with his riding whip. Said: "You are causing trouble in Neuquen Imperial City and even murdering people. Do you really think that the Karlsruhe Empire is a place where you can come and go freely without any restrictions?"

Lin glanced at the tragic scene behind him and said: "As a distinguished guest invited by the empire, staying at a place designated by the empire, under such circumstances, there are still lawless people attacking. I can say that the prestige of the empire is in this group of arrogant people." In the eyes of the people, there is nothing left. Since the empire has no prestige at all, then in order to protect our own lives, we strike back. What is wrong with this?"

"Sophistication!" The noble with a particularly loud voice yelled and cursed: "It's not because of your actions that provoke public dissatisfaction. That's why some ambitious people attack you in the name of getting rid of harm. And you, as sinners, It is an unforgivable crime for you to commit such a crime again. As a lord who is loyal to the empire, it is my duty to eliminate all injustices. I will kill you today to show my loyalty to the empire. Righteous reputation."

With that said, the noble waved his hand and gave the order: "March! March! Capture the magician and the elves in the guesthouse. If there is resistance, we will kill them without mercy."

Are there three sentences? Seeing that the negotiation could not be concluded, Lin waved his hand and sent a fireball into the magic circle in the sky. In an instant, a thick black fog was released, like a bowl turned upside down, covering the entire guesthouse building, as well as the surrounding streets and open space.

Lin said: "Those who trespass will die, and those who do not enter will not be killed. If more than half of the dead are dead, none of you will be able to go back. Don't blame me for not warning you." After saying that, he stepped back and disappeared into the mist.

This strange move actually stopped the advancing army. At this time, in order to boost morale, the nobles shouted: "Don't be afraid, this is just a deception. Go forward! Go forward! Whether you are captured alive or beheaded, there will be rewards!"

The army advances again!
