Chaos City, the city lord's castle, in the study.
"W-what's going on?" Michael looked at the secret, urgent letter in his hand in shock.
"You saw it too?" Rolan barged in, and closed the door after seeing the secret letter in Michael's hand and his expression.
"How did this happen? Where did that group of mysterious people come from? They actually defeated The Wind Forest. " Michael was still in disbelief. Even if all the high-end combat power in Chaos City were to bet, they might not be able to do that.
What shocked him even more was that Chaos City had no news of such a powerful force before this. They didn't even know of their existence.
"The information that the Gray Temple received was more comprehensive." Rolan took out a secret letter and passed it to Michael. He continued, "Alex indeed went to the underground cavern to rescue the Night Elves. The Wind Forest was already prepared. They sent out 10 great magic casters to besiege Alex, and tried to kill him and Irina together. "Alex killed Borg in the midst of the siege, and there were signs of him being surrounded. Crassus and Julian joined the battle, and the elves had the advantage in numbers.
"After that, that team of mysterious people appeared. Under the lead of the 10 great magic casters, they defeated The Wind Forest's powerful team, and announced that they were here to rescue and protect the Night Elves."
"Julian and Crassus have always been on good terms with Irina. They almost took her in as their disciple back then. I just didn't expect them to go against The Wind Forest," Michael said in surprise.
"Although these two old fellows are old, their way of doing things hasn't changed. Moreover, the two of them are together, which is enough to make any force wary. They are also a ticking time bomb in Chaos City. We have to be careful at all times." Rolan nodded with a slight headache.
"Let's not bother about Crassus and Julian for now. But where did that group of mysterious people come from? The sudden appearance of such a powerful race on the eve of the peace talks between the various races might make things worse for the peace talks. " Michael frowned. Although there were many details of the battle in this secret letter, he still couldn't make an accurate judgment of the identity of those mysterious people.
"This matter still needs some time to investigate, but the report mentioned that those mysterious people arrived on a golden dragon and a frost dragon. This might be a direction for the investigation." Roland shook his head slightly. This matter was indeed a little strange, but at present, it seemed that there was still a direction to investigate.
"Other than that, what do you think of the Night Elves heading south?"
"Burke is dead, and Irina set up the Night Elves to openly oppose The Wind Forest. Furthermore, they defeated The Wind Forest in this Catacombs siege. The Elves' vitality has been greatly damaged. They may choose to maintain the status quo in this peace negotiation, focusing on eliminating the Night Elves and recuperating." Roland thought for a moment and said, "I think we should secretly accept the Night Elves into the city and provide them with the necessary help. The strengthening of the Night Elves can absorb The Wind Forest's desire to expand. This is a good thing for the peace of the Norland Continent. "
"Helena's actions are too extreme. She forcefully turned The Wind Forest into a feudal kingdom, and made the elves fight for fame and fortune like humans. If Irina's Night Elves can succeed, this is also a good thing. "Michael nodded.
…
In the Roth Empire, the king and the ministers were having a meeting in the meeting hall. The second prince, Josh, was among them, but he looked a little absent-minded and anxious.
The encirclement of the Night Elves by The Wind Forest gave him a headache. Although he had repeatedly contacted Helena and Burke through letters, he couldn't get their promise that they wouldn't harm Irina, nor did they agree to hand Irina over to him.
Today was the day The Wind Forest launched their final attack on the Night Elves. Although he had promised Burke last night that he would support him to become the elven king if Irina didn't die and was delivered to him, he didn't receive Burke's reply.
He didn't know what the situation was like now. If the king hadn't asked him to stay, he would have gone to The Wind Forest personally.
A guard quickly came to the door, and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, urgent report!"
"Present it." King Andre took the secret letter and read it personally. After a while, he let out a soft gasp.
The ministers looked at each other. They didn't know what could make His Majesty so shocked, but no one dared to ask.
Josh also looked at Andre nervously. He had a feeling that this urgent report was most likely related to the Night Elves and Irina.
After a while, Andre put down the secret letter in his hand, and said to the ministers, "The Wind Forest's encirclement of the Night Elves has been repelled."
The meeting hall was silent for a moment, and then there was an uproar.
Although the ministers had tried their best to control their emotions, they still couldn't hide the shock in their hearts.
The difference in power between The Wind Forest and the Night Elves was like that between a giant dragon and an ant. They had mentioned this before, but such an obvious outcome didn't arouse the ministers' interest. They all said that The Wind Forest would be able to completely annihilate the Night Elves today.
However, this outcome gave them a loud slap in the face.
"H-how is this possible?" The prime minister was shocked.
"If that's the case, Irina shouldn't be dead!" Josh was elated. Although he was also shocked by this outcome, it had completely exceeded his expectations.
"Alex killed Burke," Andre continued.
The meeting hall quietened down instantly. The ministers were shocked by Alex's power, but they kept their expressions and kept quiet out of fear.
During this period of time, Alex had been a taboo in the Roth Empire's officialdom. No one denied his power and greatness.
It was just that he was once the pride of the Roth Empire, the number one in the military, and no longer belonged to the Roth Empire. He might even be standing on the opposite side of the empire.
Furthermore, the elves were the Roth Empire's stable allies. As the commander of the elves' military, Burke had died in Alex's hands today. This was also a loss to the Roth Empire.
"Did Alex save her again? This fellow is indeed as detestable as before … "Josh clenched his fists. This was undoubtedly the outcome that he didn't want to hear the most. It was even worse than Irina dying in the chaos.
"Apart from Alex, Julian and Crassus also appeared at the same time, as well as a group of powerful and mysterious people," Andre said calmly as he glanced at Josh.
"Powerful and mysterious people?" All the ministers were shocked. What kind of mysterious people could make the king use the word "powerful" to describe them?
"The outcome is a little unexpected, but it doesn't have much impact on the Roth Empire. Let's investigate the background of those mysterious people. Perhaps there are still things in this world that we don't know," Andre said in a low voice as he placed the secret letter on the table.
