Chapter 027: Attacking the Elf King
When the fog suddenly enveloped the big tree, the big fat bird made a happy "chirp" sound, and Shu Li and the little birdies hiding under its belly all poked their heads out at the same time.
Seeing the thick fog, Shu Li clenched his hands tightly, tears in his eyes.
Great! The gods heard his prayers.
Soon, chaos ensued under the tree. The black knights, affected by the fog, began to hallucinate and began to kill each other.
Shu Li subconsciously covered his nose, fearing that he would inhale the mist and become unconscious.
However, he had already inhaled a lot of mist before covering his nose, so nothing unusual happened. He turned around and looked at the chicks around him; each one looked normal.
It seems that the fog only affects outsiders.
Shu Li put down the hand that was covering his nose and waited anxiously, silently reciting the true names of the gods in his heart and thanking them for their blessings.
Chaos grew beneath the tree, and terrifying screams echoed continuously. Suddenly, a gloomy voice shouted, "Illusion! Everything is an illusion! This is nothing more than a crude trick of the Elf King!"
Shu Li's whole body tensed up, and her heart seemed to be beating out of her throat.
What was that black knight shouting? His tone was so terrifying, so full of hostility!
A pleasant voice was faintly heard under the tree, and then the fog suddenly disappeared.
Shu Li was horrified. He grabbed the edge of the bird's nest with both hands and looked down despite the fat bird's attempts to stop him.
Then--
He saw a ball of light.
A warm, hazy, dreamy light, purer than moonlight.
When the light moves, the darkness gives way and disappears silently.
Shu Li opened his eyes wide in disbelief, staring at the ball of light without blinking - or rather, the unicorn with its own light effect and the blonde elf on its back.
Even though they were more than 20 meters apart and looking down from above, Shu Li could still see the other person's appearance clearly.
It’s the Elf King!
He swore with his big, kazilan eyes that he was definitely not mistaken. The golden-haired elf riding a unicorn, exuding elegance from head to toe and as perfect as a god, was the Elf King he had seen on the first day of his birth.
Shu Li was overjoyed, her heart beating fast, her mind got excited, she forgot her own situation, and she couldn't wait to spread her wings and fly towards the Elf King.
However, as soon as he jumped out of the bird's nest, his clothes were caught in the bird's beak.
"Well?"
Shu Li was stunned.
The big fat bird quickly took him back to the nest, held him tightly with its wings, and made a few reproachful "cooing" sounds.
Shu Li leaned against the soft feathers, and her hot head gradually cooled down, and she felt a little scared.
I almost forgot, there is a scary black knight under the tree!
I am just a fragile cub now. What if I accidentally hold the Elf King back?
Fortunately, the big fat bird was more rational than him and caught him.
"Thank you...thank you." Shu Li's face turned slightly red as she thanked the big fat bird.
"Coo." The big fat bird touched the elf cub's head soothingly with its red beak.
Just wait, the Elf King will soon deal with these evil foreign intruders.
The wait wasn't long.
Shu Li counted silently for twenty seconds, and then there was no movement under the tree. When he reached the 30th second, he heard a gentle voice.
"Sperian, I'm here to take you home."
The man's voice was like the sound of nature, which made Shu Li's body tremble and her soul tremble.
He crawled out of the bird's belly and leaned over to look down eagerly.
The blond elf tilted her flawless face up and held out her hand to him.
Shu Li stared at him blankly, tears welling in his eyes. After a night of fear and a near brush with death, seeing the Elf King in this moment of despair was like seeing a family member. A deep sense of grievance suddenly welled up in his heart.
“Wow—”
He could no longer control himself, rushed out of the bird's nest, flapped his wings quickly, and pounced on the Elf King, tears streaming down his face.
This time, the big fat bird did not stop him, but tried hard to straighten the tilted bird's nest.
Shu Li rushed down from a branch more than 20 meters high, flapping his little wings. He flew for a long time and only descended about ten meters. When he saw the Elf King, his emotion suddenly diminished by half, and an inexplicable embarrassment arose.
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't I immediately throw myself into the Elf King's arms and seek comfort?
But... he flew for a long time, and there was still a long distance between him and the Elf King.
The flying tears suddenly stopped.
This is different from what he imagined!
The Elf King still stretched out his hand, his expression did not change from beginning to end, and his eyes were as gentle as water.
Shu Li closed his eyes, decided to go for broke, folded his wings, and let his body go into free fall.
The speed...is even faster than he can fly!
Shu Li covered her face in shame.
Grievance? Touched?
They no longer exist.
At this moment, he just wanted to lie quietly in the pit, covered with thick soil, and fall asleep peacefully.
Wow wow wow wow.... How embarrassing, isn't it!
The blond goblin cub fell straight down like a pebble, brushing past the Elf King's fingertips and hitting the ground.
Elf King: ...
Seeing that the little cub was about to dive into the weeds, the Elf King moved his fingers, and a ball of soft light quickly enveloped the cub's small body.
Shu Li felt that he had stopped falling. He lowered his hands from covering his face, opened his eyes drowsily, and was surprised to find himself in a ball of light.
Well?
He raised his head and saw a huge horse head!
The horse has a long spiral horn on its head.
This is... a unicorn!
“Hiss, hiss~”
While Shu Li was stunned, the unicorn bared its fangs at him.
Seeing a row of neat and white fangs, Shu Li was shocked for a moment, and her good impression of unicorns changed a little.
Fortunately, his eye contact with the unicorn did not last too long, and the ball of light carried him up and floated towards the Elf King.
The Elf King spread his hands, and the little cub fell accurately into his palms.
Face to face with the Elf King again, Shu Li blinked her big green eyes, feeling shy and conflicted. She tugged at the corners of her clothes with her hands helplessly, trying hard to recall the etiquette that Elsa had taught her.
For example, when meeting the Elf King, one must perform the highest etiquette.
He stood upright with his feet together, raised his right hand awkwardly to press against his left chest, bowed his head, and stammered, "Thank...thank you, noble king...for saving me. I will praise you every day!"
The Elf King smiled and asked softly, "Are you hurt?"
Shu Li stood up straight after the ceremony. When he heard the Elf King's question, he shook his head like a rattle and pointed to the branch above him. "No! The big fat bird protected me very well."
"Big fat bird?" The Elf King looked up.
The big fat bird was straightening up its nest and comforting four chirping little birds when it heard the conversation between the Elf King and the fairy cubs. It flapped its wings and flew down from above, landing on a nearby branch.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp—" it shouted to the little cub.
Warcraft of low levels cannot express themselves in Elvish.
Shu Li naturally didn't understand, but she felt that the fat bird seemed a little unhappy.
He looked at the Elf King for help.
The Elf King, who was fluent in Warcraft, considerately helped him translate: "It said it's not called the Big Fat Bird, but the Taganga Bird, named Doris."
"Chirp!" The fat bird nodded seriously.
"S-sorry!" Shu Li blushed. Unaware of the species of the Big Fat Bird, and seeing it was snow-white and plump, she'd been silently thinking of it. She'd just spoken it out loud while talking to the Elf King.
"Chirp~" The big fat bird has always been tolerant to its young.
Seeing that it didn't mind, Shu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at it sincerely: "Thank you, Doris."
He only provided a fruit, but the big fat bird not only took him in, but also protected him in times of crisis.
If it weren't for the big fat bird, he would have died countless times.
Shu Li touched the storage ring, wanting to find the best treasure from it to give to the fat bird as a thank you gift.
The magic snake gave him a lot of things, and he couldn't choose the most valuable one. He was overwhelmed.
The Elf King took the lead and gave a thank-you gift to the fat bird.
He just raised his hand, and four crystal clear red crystal flower seeds floated towards the fat bird.
The big fat bird didn't know what kind of seeds these were, but was attracted by the rich magic.
"Doris, thank you for saving Sperian. This is the red crystal flower seed as a thank you gift for you and your cub." said the Elf King.
The fat bird's eyes widened when he heard this.
These four small red dots are actually red crystal flower seeds that can increase the level of Warcraft!
The big fat bird looked at the Elf King excitedly and chirped several times.
Would you really give it such a valuable thing?
The Elf King smiled and nodded at it.
After getting a positive answer, the fat bird immediately opened its mouth wide, pecked, pecked four seeds into its mouth, and then flapped its wings and returned to its nest.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp--" The four little birds opened their mouths and screamed when they saw their mother coming back.
They are hungry!
The big fat bird fed four red crystal flower seeds to the little bird without hesitation.
Shu Li looked up at the busy bird's nest in the tree in confusion.
It's strange, why does he feel that the red crystal flower seeds that the Elf King gave to the fat bird seem familiar?
If he remembered correctly, the thank-you gift he gave to Sparrow Feijiu not long ago was exactly four.
Ah, maybe he was overthinking it.
The Elf King has lived for so long, it’s not surprising that he has red crystal flower seeds.
After feeding the chicks, the big fat bird flew down from the branch again and circled twice above the boy who was lying near the tree trunk.
“Chirp, chirp, chirp—”
It reminded me that there were two humans lying on the ground, their lives or deaths unknown!
Even though it disliked humans, these two were clearly better than the black knights who carried the aura of death. After all, they were not affected by the fog and fell into hallucinations.
Usually only honest and kind people can withstand the test of the fog.
When Shu Lijing was reminded by the fat bird, he suddenly remembered something, and took the Elf King's finger and looked at the grass.
I almost vomited when I saw this.
I was so excited when I saw the Elf King just now that I completely forgot that there were other people here.
For example, the crying boy and his companions, and those brutal and evil black knights.
At this time, the bright moon hanging in the sky was unusually bright, and its silver light poured down through the branches, clearly illuminating the grass.
Bloody heads and headless corpses were scattered all over the place. The horses that had lost their owners stood there, gnawing on the blood-stained weeds with their heads down.
A young boy in tattered clothes lay under a tree trunk, motionless, and ten meters away from him, lay a "bloody man" with so many wounds on his body that his back was a bloody mess.
Shu Li sat in the Elf King's hand, covering her mouth and resisting the urge to gag.
The Elf King lowered his eyes, slightly clenched his fingers to block the cub's sight, raised his free right hand, and recited a short spell.
In an instant, the bodies of the black knights scattered on the grass turned into powder and melted into the forest soil. The horses were frightened and raised their front hooves to flee in all directions. Soon they disappeared without a trace, leaving only the young prince and the magic mentor.
