Several elders knew what this whistle meant. It was a signal that a slave-catching team was approaching! Ben was the first to stand up and glared at Roger: "Humans are indeed a race that keeps their word. You lied to us."
!You must have brought this slave-catching team!"
Although the other elders did not rebuke Roger, they all looked at him unkindly. Not long after Roger arrived, a slave-catching team approached the camp. Of course, the elves would be very suspicious of him.
However, Roger himself was still very calm and did not even stand up. Instead, he smiled faintly and said: "If I really want to harm you, I only need to use those troops. Why bother to bring in a slave-catching team? I
I am not a fool, but I want to do harm to you, and I come to negotiate with you alone. Do I think I have lived too long?"
Roger's words made all the elf elders choke, and they couldn't say anything that condemned him. What Roger said was indeed very reasonable, and the elf elders couldn't think of anything to refute him.
Seeing that the elves had calmed down a little, Roger continued with a smile: "You might as well find out the direction of the slave-catching team and its approximate strength first. In order to show my sincerity in cooperating with the Crescent Moon Elf, I am willing to work with my subordinates to protect your territory.
Fight in the camp and drive the invading slave-catching team out of the Green Sea Forest."
Roger's words surprised the elf elder. Randolph looked at him in disbelief and said, "Are you willing to go to war with humans for the sake of elves? Don't forget that you are also a human being!"
"You shouldn't have racial prejudice, elves!" Roger stood up and spread his arms and said affectionately: "I only fight for controversy, race and everything else are just clouds!"
Roger's righteous and awe-inspiring statement calmed all the elves. Even the most senior Randolph was stunned for a moment, and then whispered: "Mr. Li, are you kidding?"
The other elders also nodded in agreement with Randolph's words, and all expressed doubts about Roger's words.
Elves suffered disaster because of their beauty and became the most popular playthings in human society. Especially after the collapse of the Elf Empire, an unknown number of elves were captured by slave teams every year. Both men and women became human nobles.
And the playthings of big businessmen. This is why there are so many half-elves on the continent.
After a long time, the number of elves has been reduced to a very low level, and they all live in the depths of the forest that are difficult for humans to reach. Before the elves came, their race fell into this situation, which was of course the result of large-scale human beings.
It was caused by the slave-catching operation. So when Randolph and others came, it was good that Roger didn't take the initiative to capture the tribesmen to be slaves. Now he actually helped the elves against the slave-catching team, which really surprised them.
"Are you and I kidding?" Roger said with an upright face: "I am most opposed to the slave trade, especially catching free elves as slaves and trading them. This kind of behavior is intolerable even to the Supreme God!"
Roger once again categorically expressed his determination, which made all the elven elders feel relieved. Of course the elves knew that humans believe in the Supreme God, and Roger even moved out of the Supreme God, so naturally he would not lie to them.
Putting aside his doubts about Roger, the next step was to deal with the slave-catching teams. Several elders left the tree house with agility that was incompatible with their age. As soon as Randolph's feet touched the ground, he immediately asked: "Where did the enemy come from?"
Which direction are you coming from?"
"The whistle is coming from the west." An elf in green chain mail replied in a low voice: "The whistle is very rapid, and it seems that there are many enemies coming."
At the same time, Roger also came down. After hearing what the elf said, he immediately asked: "Can you know how many enemies there are?"
It was a good thing that Roger didn't show up. This appearance immediately caused a commotion among the elves. Han Sai was the most enthusiastic one. The elves who had an inexplicable hatred for humans even pulled out the long and narrow elf knife on his waist and rushed towards Roger.
He came over and shouted: "This human being must have attracted the slave-catching team. Let me kill this despicable and shameful guy first!"
"Han Sai, don't be polite to Mr. Li!" Benn quickly stopped his son and shouted: "This matter has nothing to do with him!"
Several other elders also scolded the tribesmen for not being polite to Roger. Mr. Li was a distinguished guest of the tribe, and the slave-catching team had nothing to do with him.
In the elf tribe, the elders have the highest authority. Seeing several elders saying this, although the other elves still had doubts, they did not dare to say anything more. Only Han Sai still glared at Roger fiercely, with a look like
He seemed to be incompatible with him.
Upon seeing this, Ben quickly winked at his son and asked him to hide aside obediently. Although Ben also hated human beings, he also understood that he must rely on Roger's power to eliminate the slave-catching teams. As for the future agreement between the two parties,
Whether it is achieved or not is another matter. Benn will definitely try his best to prevent any contact between the noble crescent moon elves and the lowly and despicable humans.
Roger had a panoramic view of the father and son winking at each other, and couldn't help but think to himself: These two guys have bad intentions towards their brothers. If we don't get rid of the father and son, the lumberyard will definitely live in peace!
Understanding the meaning of his father's gaze, Han Sai put away the elf sword and walked aside angrily, thinking secretly about how to kill this annoying human without being discovered by other tribesmen. But the elf supremacy didn't know yet,
He himself has become a target that Roger must disappear from.
Roger seemed not to take the little commotion to heart at all, and continued to ask the elf in green chain mail: "Is there terrain in the west suitable for a large army to deploy?"
Since the elders all said that Roger was a distinguished guest of the tribe, the elf immediately replied without thinking much: "There is a small river next to the camp, with sparse trees on the riverside..."
"Very good!" Before the elf could finish speaking, Roger raised his hand and made a forward gesture.
As soon as Roger raised his hand, the soldiers who had been staying at the edge of the camp without making any sound reacted. They stepped forward neatly, and when their weapons and armor collided, they made a "boom, boom" sound.
There was a loud noise, which even scared a few young elves to tears.
Even Randolph and several other elf elders couldn't help but turn pale when faced with such a situation. The elves have lived in the forest for too long, and the enemies they occasionally encounter are slave-catching teams with poor discipline. They have forgotten that there are still slaves on the mainland.
There is such a well-disciplined army.
Seeing the soldiers' movements as neatly as one person, and listening to the neat footsteps like a drumbeat, the elven elders had a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of these soldiers. They thought that even if these soldiers launched an attack on the camp, they should be able to at least
Half of the clansmen escaped, but now it’s good to have 30% of the clansmen saved their lives. But if the elf elders knew Roger’s calculations, except for the elves with strength above the bronze level, they would probably be killed.
Even more surprising.
The other crescent moon elves finally saw Roger's strength, and they all expressed a mixture of surprise and fear. As long as they weren't short-sighted, they could figure out that these human soldiers could bring a devastating blow to the camp.
Fortunately, Roger's soldiers had no interest in the elf camp. They passed the camp with neat steps, trampling the green grass into a mess, but they did not stop at all, and went directly to the river west of the camp to set up their formation.
As the army left the camp, several elders except Ben were more supportive of signing an agreement with Roger. They knew very well that it was absolutely impossible for the Crescent Elf to go against such a powerful human lord.
Any chance of winning.
Roger asked the soldiers to set up a formation in the woods on the edge of the grassland, waiting patiently for the arrival of the slave-catching team. In fact, the elf scout discovered that the slave-catching team was not very far from the camp. After all the delays just now, Roger
Without waiting for too long, I went to the woods on the other side of the river and saw vague figures. The slave-catching team finally arrived.
This is a large-scale slave-catching team. From the captain to the most humble porter, there are nearly 500 people in total. It can even be regarded as an army. It is precisely because of such strong strength that the slave-catching team is
They also had a great appetite. They rushed directly to the camp of the crescent moon elves that was discovered in the last operation, trying to kill all the elves.
There are only more than 200 crescent moon elves in total, and less than 50 of them can take up arms to fight. Therefore, all members of the slave-catching team feel that this operation is a sure thing. Although there are many people in this operation, as long as they can capture two
, thirty elves, everyone can earn a handsome sum of revenge, and may also have the opportunity to have some pleasant "in-depth" contact with the most beautiful race in legend. For everyone in the slave-catching team, these
The benefits are too tempting.
Therefore, all the people in the slave-catching team were eager to fight and moved towards the elves' camp as quickly as possible. Even when they encountered the waist-deep river, everyone was scrambling to get ahead, not wanting to fall behind others.
Before the operation, the captain had promised that those who took the lead in the battle would get an extra share of the bonuses and have the opportunity to sleep with the elves! With such a huge reward, of course no one would be willing to be a coward.
It's just that the slave-catching team members didn't know that there were 2,500 fully armed elite soldiers waiting for them in the woods across the river. So... then these guys were completely miserable.
When the leading slave-catching team had come ashore and the last slave-catching team had reached the deepest part of the river, Roger gave the order for the crossbowmen to start attacking. All of a sudden, the sound of bowstrings sounded and arrows shot like arrows.
It shoots towards the target like locusts, forming a terrifying death sheet in the sky!
