The atmosphere of the forest was very quiet, and the scenery was very elegant. However, it wasn't suitable for young people to live here. The older people didn't mind, but the difference in mentality between the two was too big. It was very boring here, and there was almost no entertainment. They couldn't count ants for fun, right? After dinner and before bed became the golden period. Everyone sat together and chatted about everything. Even Sunier, who usually didn't like to talk much, opened her mouth.
"Sunier, tell us!" Qi Li looked at Sunier with sparkling eyes. Ever since she knew that Sunier was once a commander, especially the commander of the heroic army in that famous battle, she had begun to admire Sunier.
"What's there to talk about?" Sunier said dispiritedly.
"You're a hero. Everyone is waiting to hear your story," Sassoux said with a smile.
"Hero?" Sunier's tone was full of sarcasm. "It's not easy to be a hero. I was the ninth commander. Do you know why I was able to become a commander? It's because the previous commanders all died in battle! "
Everyone was stunned. They didn't know why Sunier's mood had changed so much. Sunier bit her lips and said softly, "Forget it, don't ask. Let me tell you, war isn't as interesting and meaningful as you think. It's full of ugliness, cruelty, and blood. If you have the chance to walk on the battlefield, you will understand. However, I hope that you will never have the chance."
"Sunier, you underestimate our tolerance," Han Jin said calmly. "Of course, Qi Li is an exception."
"What's wrong with me?" Qi Li rolled her eyes at Han Jin.
"Yes, I agree." Morrisons patted Han Jin's shoulder and said loudly, "Sunier, we are very interested in your experience. Tell us."
"You guys …" Sunier said helplessly, "A long time ago, the elves lived on fruits. But now, I'm eating whatever you guys eat. Don't you think I'm weird?"
Han Jin and the others looked at each other. They had not noticed this before, but thinking about it carefully, it was indeed so.
"Because the war completely changed our civilization." Sunier said slowly, "Sometimes, being picky will cost us our lives. We don't have the right to be picky, especially in war. If we can't find food, we'll take off our leather armor and cook it. What else can we not eat?"
Qi Li couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand. She couldn't understand how the tough leather armor could become food!
"Actually, I'm not the real commander. In the last battle, we were about to win when we were suddenly attacked by five red dragons. In the end, we could only scatter and escape. At that time, I only had a hundred or so companions with me. They elected me as the commander. My task was not to lead them to victory, but to bring them safely back to Wild Willow City. " Sunier's voice became lower and lower. "However, including me, only seven elves returned to Wild Willow City in the end."
"You've seen a red dragon??" Stillberg exclaimed. In his opinion, the giant dragon was an extremely distant and powerful existence.
"Not only have I seen it, but we also killed a red dragon together," Sunier said lightly.
"What about the dragon crystal?" Han Jin asked anxiously. Most of the time, he could keep calm, but when it came to energy, he became another person.
"There are still four red dragons in the sky. Do you think we should go look for the dragon crystal?"
Han Jin felt that it was a pity. However, after thinking about it, even if the elves dug out the dragon crystal, it might not fall into anyone's hands. Anyway, it had nothing to do with him.
"I'm a bit tired." Sunier stood up and walked to the back.
"Sunier, don't go!" Morrisons hurriedly shouted.
Sunier acted as if she didn't hear Morrisons and disappeared into the forest without looking back.
"She really didn't have it easy." Sassoux said softly. "Actually, in that war … every elf that survived didn't have it easy.
"You know?" Morrisons asked.
"I only know a little. After all, it was something that happened ten years ago." Sassoux said slowly. "Lord Zagunéd and Lord Kassa jointly launched a large-scale attack. Wild Willow City …"
"Lord Kassa? How come I've never heard of him? "
"Don't interrupt. Listen to me and you'll know." Cessacioun said discontentedly: "At that time, the situation of Wild Willow City and the Holy Crown City was very passive and dangerous. Wild Willow City sent an elite archer squad and the Silver Pegasus Regiment to penetrate into the rear of Lord Kassa's army and launch a sneak attack. They persisted for more than a year, destroyed two large magic transmission formations, annihilated numerous small troops and burned a large number of military supplies. Except for the main city of Lord Kassa, they had occupied all the other cities, some even several times."
"Lord Kassa's main force was fighting with Dismark and couldn't rescue the rear. Moreover, the Silver Pegasus Legion was very fast. It was very difficult to find them, let alone a decisive battle. In the end, Lord Kassa had no choice but to take the risk and send out several red dragons and guards to outflank the Silver Pegasus Legion. " Sassoux paused. "Dismark had been waiting for this opportunity. He launched a full-scale attack. It only took him three days to break through Lord Kassa's defense line and kill him in the chaos."
"The Silver Pegasus Legion paid a heavy price." Sassoux sighed. "I heard that less than one-tenth of the elves returned to Wild Willow City alive."
"And then?" Han Jin asked.
"Nothing. Lord Kassa died. His territory was divided between Wild Willow City and Holy Crown City. That's it."
Han Jin was silent. Morrisons and the others sighed. They finally understood what Sunier said. She had been harassing the enemy's rear for more than a year. The hardships and dangers she had experienced were unimaginable. Eating leather armor? Now it seemed too normal.
"What are you thinking?" Sassoux looked at Han Jin.
"What about Zagunéd? You didn't talk about him just now. "
"Him? Kassa is dead. How can he fight against Wild Willow City and Holy Crown City? He has already fled back to his territory. "
"Wild Willow City and Holy Crown City didn't chase after Black Raven City's army?"
"No."
"Why?"
"Well … I don't know." Sassoux shook his head. What he knew was the general process and key links of the whole war. Not only him, but many others also knew. As for why, it was an internal secret.
