Chapter 429 Efit's Escape
In the dim dungeon, Efit was bent over the table, writing furiously in the moonlight that came in through the small window above his head.
He must record the latest potion formula as soon as possible.
Last night, a group of black knights and necromancers suddenly arrived, drove the ten dark elves out of the potion factory, took away their magic items and weapons, leaving only their magic robes, and then arbitrarily locked them up in this dungeon.
The dark elves who were imprisoned for no reason were extremely angry, but the incident happened suddenly and they had no time to resist. They were preemptively attacked by the black knights and the necromancers, and were imprisoned by magic, and had to stay in the dungeon in frustration.
"Why are the nine of us imprisoned together, while Efit has his own dungeon, complete with a bed, table, and chairs?"
The nine dark elves were filled with jealousy and complained from a distance of five or six meters.
Efit turned a deaf ear and continued to record.
When he was forced to take away his storage ring, he tried his best to leave behind his usual notebook and quill pen.
Seeing that he was absorbed in potion research, the Black Knight did not make things difficult for him.
Efit wrote all day, and wrote more than thirty pages in a row. When the moon moved westward and no more moonlight came in through the window, he put down his quill and rubbed his sore eyes.
Since arriving in Cecilia, he'd devoted all his energy to the potion. While he didn't want to encourage the forces of darkness, he had no choice but to work hard.
The dark elf will never be able to escape the control of darkness throughout his life. Even if he keeps a clear mind, he cannot change his situation.
The only advantage of coming here is that all the materials for making potions are available here, even some rare herbs can be obtained, so he doesn't need to spend a lot of money to buy them at the auction.
His medicine skills improved by leaps and bounds, and even the king praised him highly.
Efit remained calm in the face of praise and continued to do his job in a law-abiding manner.
Perhaps because of his talent in potion, the Black Knight imprisoned him alone with the ten dark elves, which was considered a special treatment.
Efit did not need this kind of treatment.
This preferential treatment does not facilitate escape.
He guessed that the dark elves must have had a conflict with the Cecilia Kingdom, and their ten pharmacists were implicated and suffered the consequences.
There has never been any fraternity among dark elves. They have been basically abandoned, and if they want to survive, they can only save themselves.
Efit never accepted his fate.
Even if surrounded by enemies, we must find a way to survive.
He held the quill in both hands and slowly twisted the tip. With a slight sound, the tip became thin and long, and a tiny magic stone shone at the top.
Efit held the pen calmly, aimed it at the bracelet on his wrist, inserted the tip of the pen into a small hole, and kept changing the position.
The bracelet is a magical item that can seal the magician's power. As long as he can find a way to break the bracelet's shackles, he can use magic.
The Black Knight only knew that he was a pharmacist, but he didn't know that he was proficient in instrument making.
After a while, there were two "clicks" from inside the bracelet and it loosened.
Efit took off the bracelet, and the sealed magic power was instantly restored.
He put the bracelet into the pocket of his magic robe, restoring its quill shape, then flipped the notebook to the back half and gently pushed it open, revealing the hidden compartment inside.
There was a small dagger in the secret compartment.
Efit took out a small dagger and held it in his hand, closed his notebook, clamped his quill, straightened his magic robe, and teleported out of the dungeon.
In the other cell, nine dark elves sat dejectedly on the ground, sighing and groaning. Their negative emotions increased their hostility. If their magic power had not been sealed, they would have gone berserk long ago.
When Efit suddenly appeared, they stared in surprise.
“You you you——”
"Shout loudly if you want to attract the guards," Efit warned coldly.
The young dark elf who was pointing his finger at him suddenly shut up.
"Efit, how did you break the seal?" the older dark elf asked curiously.
"I have my own way," Efit said. "Do you want to go back to Vanaku?"
"certainly!"
The nine dark elves exclaimed in unison.
Efit: "Then follow my command and leave Cecilia."
The nine dark elves looked at each other and gritted their teeth in agreement.
Efit removed the bracelet from each dark elf in turn. With a few "clicks", the bracelets were removed, the magic power was restored, and the dark elves all looked gloomy.
I didn't understand the situation before, and when I was surrounded by the Black Knight and the Necromancer, I didn't resist. I let them take away my magic props and weapons, and obediently put on the bracelet to seal my magic power.
Now that they have become prisoners and have been locked up in a dungeon for a day and a night with no one paying attention to them, they certainly don't want to sit and wait for death.
"My storage ring contains all my life's hard work. I can't just let it go!"
"Yeah, I worked so hard to mix a speed-boosting potion, it would be a shame to throw it away."
"Efit, I remember you have a lot of potions to keep your mind clear, right?"
After drinking the potion, I felt calmer and was more focused when preparing the potion, without being restless.
Efit was silent for a moment, then said, "Get your things back and run."
The dark elves smiled.
Soon, ten black shadows left the dungeon silently, following the scent attached to the magic items, and successfully found what belonged to them.
Dark elves are natural assassins and thieves.
When they hide their presence, they come and go without a trace.
The guard who was in charge of the magic items had no idea that the dark elves would leave the dungeon, so he found a place to take a nap early in the middle of the night.
The dark elves appeared like ghosts, opened the cabinets easily, took back their storage rings and magic props, eliminated their aura, and then teleported away.
Under the cover of darkness, the dark elves successfully escaped from the King's City of Cecilia.
Mermaid Island Dias Castle
The castle is brightly lit in the dark night, beautiful music is floating in the palace, and the mermaids sing heavenly songs with their unique voices. In order to welcome the guests from afar, the mermaids serve the most delicious food.
Shu Li sat beside the Elf King, slowly drinking the clear fruit wine, and admiring the beautiful mermaid swimming in the water without blinking.
The mermaid's castle combines land and water, and there are canals everywhere in the palace for the mermaids who don't want to grow legs and go ashore to swim around.
After resolving the last source, the sea area returned to normal.
Originally Shu Li was worried that the God of Darkness would cause trouble, but unexpectedly everything went so smoothly.
It seems the Dark God is overwhelmed. The Dark Elves have launched a war against the Kingdom of Cecilia, and a counterattack has broken out in the Enkak region, which will keep him busy for a while.
This time around, they seized the initiative and will never make the same mistake again.
The seabed crack closed, the crisis on Mermaid Island was over, and the Mermaid King warmly invited them to visit Mermaid Island.
Unable to refuse such a kind invitation, everyone followed the Mermaid King to Mermaid Island.
After arriving at Mermaid Island, they were warmly welcomed.
Late at night, thousands of mermaids gathered on the beach to greet them. At first glance, there were only handsome men and beautiful women. The beautiful fish tails reflecting the moonlight dazzled Shu Li.
Fortunately, Shu Li quickly calmed down after getting used to the beauty of elves and fairies.
The mermaids thanked the guests sincerely. Some young mermaids had never seen the mysterious Elf King before, so they stepped forward boldly and enthusiastically to pay their respects.
For example, at this moment, he and the Elf King were sitting together drinking and enjoying delicious food. In the canal in front of them, there were more than twenty mermaids, big and small, all looking at the Elf King with admiration.
The Elf King patiently let them look at him. When he saw the little elf beside him finish a glass of fruit wine and wanted to pour a second glass, he reached out and took the glass away.
"Huh?" Shu Li withdrew his gaze from the mermaid and stared at the wine glass a foot away from him.
"Don't drink too much tonight," the Elf King said considerately.
Shu Li licked her pink lips and muttered dissatisfiedly: "I only drank a small cup."
The Elf King said affirmatively: "You are drunk."
Shu Li retorted: "Impossible! I'm not drunk!"
He was indeed easily drunk, the type who would get drunk after just one glass, but the mermaids' wine glasses were very small, so he could finish a glass in two sips, and he wouldn't get drunk even if he drank three glasses.
The Elf King looked at the blush on the little elf's face and poured him a glass of juice.
Shu Li pursed his lips, drooped his pointed ears, and drank the juice with a wronged look on his face.
Perhaps because he looked so pitiful, a nearby mermaid came over and asked the Elf King, "Why don't you give him some wine? It's a happy day today, so it doesn't matter if he gets drunk."
Shu Li pricked up his ears instantly and nodded in agreement.
That’s right, if you get drunk, the worst that can happen is you just take a nap!
The Elf King sighed softly, "He's not very honest when he's drunk."
"Hey! Most people behave badly when they're drunk." The mermaid patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, we can help take care of you."
The Elf King said gently: "It's okay, I will take care of him."
The mermaid couldn't help but sigh.
The Elf King is such a gentle king!
Shu Li was originally unconvinced, but when he heard the Elf King say that he was drunk and dishonest, he suddenly remembered the last time he was drunk.
At that time, he was still on the tenth floor of the maze. After he got drunk, he not only invited the Elf King to dance, but also took off his clothes and took a bath in front of him...
Although my head was a little dizzy, I was still conscious.
Shu Li decisively asked the mermaid who delivered the food for a glass of boiled water.
Seeing that he was well-behaved, the Elf King did not point it out to him. He held the wine glass elegantly and drank slowly.
The mermaids nearby saw this and chuckled secretly.
The Elf King doesn't allow the goblins to drink, but he himself drinks one cup after another!
The banquet lasted for more than two hours, and everyone dispersed at dawn.
The mermaids thoughtfully prepared rest rooms for the guests.
Harmon, Amanda and the four little fairies were given separate rooms, but Shuli and the Elf King were given a double room.
Standing in the room that looked like a newlywed's room, Shu Li fell silent.
The whole room is decorated festively. The double bed is a huge shell with a glittery decoration on the open cover. The bed sheet is pink with delicate lace hanging down, creating a dreamy color.
Shu Li faced the shell bed awkwardly.
"Do you think... Shuradis has figured out our...relationship?"
He was busy dealing with the source of the seabed crack and didn't remember doing any intimate actions with the Elf King.
It's normal to hug and cuddle occasionally, right?
The Elf King smiled and patted his head. "It's okay to see it."
Shu Li's cheeks flushed slightly.
His relationship with the Elf King will be exposed sooner or later. In the previous seven reincarnations, two weddings were held there.
Therefore, when he was seen kissing the Elf King in the Temple of the Earth God, he hesitated for a moment and then faced them generously.
Fortunately, his friends readily accepted his close relationship with the Elf King.
As for the others, he is not mentally prepared to make the announcement yet.
"Don't think too much." The Elf King pinched his ear gently, "Aren't you sleepy?"
"I'm sleepy." Shu Li yawned involuntarily.
After being busy all night, I was exhausted. After drinking, I felt even more sleepy.
The Elf King put his arm around his shoulders and took him to the bathroom, saying softly, "Take a shower first."
"oh……"
When Shu Li came back to her senses, the Elf King had already untied her clothes.
"I...I can do it myself..."
He refused a little slowly, unbuttoning his belt clumsily.
The Elf King bent down slightly, put his lips to his pointed ear, and whispered, "Be good, I'll help you."
Shu Li felt a tingling sensation in her ears, her legs went weak, and her back rested on the Elf King's hard chest.
The Elf King frowned, with stars twinkling in his green eyes. He put one hand around the little elf's slender waist and used the other hand to flexibly help untie her belt.
Soon, the goblin's robe fell to the ground and piled up at his ankles.
When the slender fingers hooked the waistband of the little elf's underwear, Shu Li quickly held down the Elf King's hand, and his little heart was beating fast.
"You...you go out, I'll wash it myself."
If we let him help us again, we won’t have to get up tomorrow.
After all, how can you be so indulgent on someone else's territory?
"You are drunk and can't stand steadily." The Elf King said calmly, "I won't do anything else."
Shu Li hesitated for half a minute, then felt the aftereffects of the wine kick in, and he felt dizzy.
"Okay... okay! You are not allowed to do... anything else..."
"Um."
The Elf King lowered his eyes and responded softly.
