Chapter 603: domesticated hamsters
“We have to leave this place quickly.”
Aurelian supported herself with her hands and stood up. She took the opportunity to look at the interior of the room. This was not a gloomy dungeon. There were wooden boxes and bottles piled up around it, it was like a warehouse for storing goods.
“Let’s eat something before we leave.”
The branches and leaves took out an oil paper package. When she opened the package, the three High Elves were instantly attracted by the contents of the package.
“Human food again?”
Aurelian frowned. The fragrance in the air made her sense of hunger clearer.
“I heard the humans say that this thing is called a bun. Its surface is made of a plant powder called wheat.”
The branches and leaves looked at the two high elves behind Aurelian. Their expressions almost made them say that they were ‘hungry’.
“Elder sister Aurelian… I really don’t have any strength left.”
The high elf named Winn said somewhat unwillingly.
“Hurry up, we don’t have much time left.”
Aurelian turned her back and no longer looked at her two high elf companions. Aurelian’s words were equivalent to giving them permission to touch human food.
However, seeing Aurelian’s determined look, the two High Elves silently put down the food in their hands.
“Aren’t you going to eat?”Leaf asked.
“Let’s go to Aurelian’s elder sister’s orchard for lunch after we escape.”Winn forced a smile and said, “Leaf, you can come with us.”
Leaf looked at the expectant smile on her own kind’s face, and the self-reproach in her heart increased again. She really couldn’t tell her that she was a spy.
No… She came here because she served the holy tree and guided her own kind on the right path.
The two High Elves rejected the human food, which seemed to inspire Aurelian.
“I’ll treat you well when we go back, so leave now.”
Aurelian immediately pushed open the door of the room and came to the corridor. She had to bring her companions back to askro safely and inform the elders of the human invasion.
When she arrived at the corridor, Aurelian, who had already prepared herself to face the gloomy bunker, immediately saw a window.
Window? Aurelian walked to the window. The ruins of the forgotten land were clearly visible to Aurelian.
Although there was no magic power in her body, Aurelian could definitely break this window and escape.
Was it because those humans were too careless?
“Elder sister Aurelian, can this window be opened?”
Seeing Hope, Winn instantly entered a state of excitement.
“It’s locked.”
Aurelian’s hands held the handle of the window and shook it. As expected, the window was completely sealed.
“Try it with this.”The branch handed Aurelian a dagger.
Aurelian held the dagger and scratched the glass tentatively. When the blade of the dagger touched the surface of the glass, an ice-blue magic rune appeared on the glass, in the next second, the tip of Aurelian’s dagger turned into ice.
A magic barrier?
“Run!”
Aurelian made this decision almost subconsciously. Her action was no different from disturbing the person who had set up the barrier, which was the frost elf.
It was able to easily restrict Aurelian’s movements.
Aurelian had finally obtained her freedom with great difficulty. If she was discovered again, there probably wouldn’t be a second branch that would come out to save her!
This group of elven fugitives instantly started running in this building that was similar to an ancient castle… while the branch followed Aurelian, it raised its head to look at the ceiling, a white cat was sitting in the shadow of the chandelier.
The white cat had been watching them from the beginning to the end. Perhaps Aurelian did not realize that the owner of the tavern was watching this escape.
..
“Don’t they have food to eat? These High Elves still have some backbone.”
Joshua sat in the lobby of the tavern on the first floor and looked at the images displayed on his magic web. These images were from the ‘broadcast’of the white cat.
The four beautiful girls were walking in fear in the gloomy castle. Josh felt that they could be used to make a movie.
“Free food?”Hiri was also the audience of this real-life escape show, but she was more concerned about the words that Josh said that she couldn’t understand.
“It’s charity with an insult.”
Josh gave a relatively easy explanation.
“Charity? According to the settings, didn’t the branches steal food from the enemy?”Healy hugged the back of the chair and looked at the Three High Elves. “If this is considered backbone, I would rather vent my anger.”
“Miss Healy, you mean…”
“Empty the enemy’s grain warehouse and burn it down after you have enough energy,”Healy told them her plan.
“Okay.”
Josh was glad that none of the High Elves had a girl like Hiri.
“Josh, do you want to record this and send it to the TV station?”Hiri held her chin with her hand and still didn’t understand why Josh wanted to ‘raise’the three High Elves.
They were like hamsters now, running around in the maze according to Josh’s plan. These hamsters were on a hunger strike.
“I don’t have such thoughts for now. The ice dragon has set up a defensive magic circle in the tavern. It’s a huge cage for these high elves. I’ll keep them locked up until they ‘adapt’to the life in the tavern,”Joshua said.
Hiri watched the scene on the magic net. When the High Elves walked into an empty room surrounded by dim lights, hiri instantly understood what Joshua meant by ‘adapt’.
“Do we need to go out and catch a few more?”If Hiri remembered correctly, Joshua’s ultimate goal was to change the high elves’view of humans.
“No need. They will come to us on their own. When the time comes, we can classify them according to their personalities.”
Joshua looked at the Elf who was still sitting in the tavern. Under the guidance of Al, she did not show fear and hatred towards Joshua. Instead, she chose to take the initiative to fight with Al on the Hearthstone.
In the beginning, Al could still rely on his own experience to fight 50-50 against her own kind. Now, that Elf had already won five rounds in a row against AL..
“It seems that not all high elves are so stubborn. The only thing left to do is to wait for the Wild High Elves to come,”said Joshua.
