Nydore's story was not complicated, and it did not take long to explain it all. Initially, the eight of them had fled the village to avoid the wild and unrestrained pursuers. This was one of the customs of the traditional Elves, and it was a tactful way to reject other people's advances.
For the Elves, who were close to nature and adept at surviving in the wild, the escape from the marriage was like a relaxing and enjoyable outdoor trip. Their peaceful life lasted for a long time, but one day, Nydore and the others discovered a group of suspicious people in the forest.
It was a strange team made up of elves, humans, dwarves, and even cavemen who lived underground for a long time. At first glance, such a team was full of doubts and problems. No matter how worldly the elves were, they still had at least some self-respect and pride. How could they mix with dwarves and the lowly cavemen?
After that, they tailed the group. They seemed to be wandering around aimlessly. Whenever they found a spot, they would chop down the trees and weeds on the ground. Then, they would carve patterns and lines on the ground that Nydore did not recognize. After that, they would cover up their carvings and move on to the next spot, repeating the same process over and over again.
It was obvious that they were up to something. Nydore wanted to stop them on the spot, but the Elf uncle who was with her stopped her. He did not act rashly, but he sent a messenger pigeon to report the situation to the village. For some reason, there was no response from the village. Now, it seemed that communication between the Elves and the village had been cut off since then.
After all, the messenger pigeon was an unreliable means of communication. There were countless ways for the Elves to disrupt communication between the two parties.
After that, Nydore's group encountered a few more groups like this one. Their activities became more frequent, and the area of destruction they caused grew larger and larger. Some of them even began to cut down trees and burn forests to build abominable structures that resembled altars.
Nydore could not stand it any longer. Although she did not know what they were up to, she knew that the forest could not be destroyed like this. So, the day before, she fired an arrow at one of the Elves.
The Wind Chasing Archers in the forest were terrifying existences. Even though there were only eight of them, they were still able to wipe them out easily. They did not even encounter any resistance. When they inspected the battlefield, the corpses of the Wind Chasing Archers suddenly burst into flames, leaving no clues behind.
That night, they were attacked by the enemy's hunting squad. They fought and retreated at the same time. After fighting for more than four hours, Baiyi's reinforcements finally arrived at the last minute.
"Let me ask you something first. Do you guys have any festivals these days?" Baiyi asked.
"Eh? Why are you suddenly asking this? The next festival is next month, isn't it? "Nydore asked curiously.
Baiyi glanced at the Fairy Walker, who immediately put on a pitiful expression. It was a pity that militia armor did not have facial expressions, or else she would have looked like she was about to cry in front of Baiyi.
At this point, Baiyi could roughly guess what the Wise Mad King was thinking. The Wise Mad King was obviously planning something big, but he was worried that the traditionalists would oppose his plans. Therefore, he had set up a series of traps, especially the Caudillo Butterfly, which was the most important weapon of the traditionalists. The Wise Mad King's seemingly insane courtship was probably to force Nydore to leave Eom Village and leave the protection of Mr. Bear and the Great Druid.
Then, he deliberately spread the news of the Caudillo Butterfly Bow, causing many people to flock to Eom Village. Eom Village was completely overwhelmed, so it was very easy for his people to mix in and set up the previous shielding barrier and interference barrier near the village.
Take the piece of dragon scale that Baiyi had picked up for example. Based on the depletion of its Mana, Baiyi could roughly deduce that it had been hidden there about a month ago. The timing was basically the same. The reason why Baiyi had chosen a luxurious material like the dragon scale was probably because of the faint Draconic Aura that was left on the dragon scale. It was able to keep sensitive animals away from it, which minimized the occurrence of accidents.
After that, the Wise Mad King proceeded with his plan. He patiently waited for Nydore, who could no longer hold herself back, to offer herself to the Wise Mad King. Then, he would join the hunting party that he had prepared beforehand. Meanwhile, the Wise Mad King began his assault on Eom Village. He wanted to get rid of these two thorns in one night.
Baiyi's sudden appearance did not stop the Wise Mad King from carrying out his plan. Instead, the Wise Mad King made some adjustments to his plan, giving Baiyi a choice. If the Cleric Walker had not been reliable, Mia would have been killed, and Baiyi, who had lost his power channel, would not have been able to survive. Thus, the Wise Mad King had solved three problems in one fell swoop.
This was why Baiyi felt that the Wise Mad King was a difficult opponent to deal with. The Wise Mad King was not arrogant enough to send his men to fight Baiyi head-on. Instead, the Wise Mad King had split the battlefield into two, using his advantage in numbers, and almost succeeded!
The Wise Mad King's plan was well-executed, and he was well-prepared. Every detail had been taken into consideration, including the hunting team. It was obvious that they had gone through a long period of training and rehearsals. They were very experienced and experienced. This was definitely not a hastily assembled team. The Wise Mad King must have been preparing to deal with the traditional elves for a long time.
When Baiyi arrived at the battlefield, he did not join the fray immediately. Instead, he observed the situation for a while and secretly killed a few dangerous sorcerers, which gave Nydore and the others time to argue. If the Wise Mad King had gone all out, Nydore and the others would not have lasted until Baiyi arrived. Why did they slow down? Was it because they were afraid of the Caudillo Butterfly's power? Or was it because they wanted to capture them alive? Or was it because they wanted to lure Baiyi to Eom Village?
In the end, Baiyi forced Nydore to hand over the Caudillo Butterfly bow. Although the girl was reluctant to hand it over to Baiyi, she was a little afraid of Baiyi's new lover. After all, Baiyi was her senior, and he was dressed in a weird way, and he looked so fierce … So, she could only hand over the bow, which had returned to its normal appearance.
The moment Baiyi touched the Caudillo Butterfly, he understood why the Wise Mad King did not dare to kill Nydore.
The Caudillo Butterfly was not the bow Baiyi was holding. It was a strange Concept that was attached to the bow. It was similar to the Law, but at the same time, it was different. It was as if the Law had changed shape, and the weapon that was attached to the Caudillo Butterfly was the Caudillo Butterfly. Without the Caudillo Butterfly, Baiyi's bow was just an ordinary blackwood longbow.
No wonder the Caudillo Butterfly was not lost to the fairies when they were exiled from Isythre. Instead, it had returned to the fairies. The Wise Mad King must have known about the Caudillo Butterfly when he tried to woo Nydore.
Although Baiyi wanted to study the Caudillo Butterfly, the Caudillo Butterfly was not lost to the fairies. Instead, it had returned to the fairies. The Wise Mad King must have known about the Caudillo Butterfly when he tried to woo Nydore.
Furthermore, there was something more important that he needed to know, which was the situation in Eom Village. If the Wise Mad King had made such a move, then the attack on Eom Village should have been very strong. He must have taken into account the power of the three Guardians, and he must have prepared a powerful trump card. How could it have been so easily dealt with?
Baiyi was not the only one who was curious. The Wise Mad King, who had just received the latest report, was shocked.
It was already the next morning, but he did not make love to his concubine. Instead, he stayed with the Black Robe Advisor, patiently waiting for the report from the frontline. When he received the news that Nydore's group had been defeated, and that the villain Hope had been forced to leave Eom Village, a triumphant smile appeared on his face. It was as if the perfect outcome had been presented to him.
According to the Wise Mad King's script, Hope had chosen to rescue Nydore. That way, Eom Village would be destroyed, and his adorable little girl, the Soul Armature Practitioner, would be dead. Then, the Wise Mad King would go back and organize a team to kill Nydore. Even if the Wise Mad King chose to retreat, Nydore would still be captured by Baiyi. Then, Baiyi could use the Caudillo Butterfly's power to kill the Wise Mad King.
The Wise Mad King's best case scenario was that the Caudillo Butterfly's precious time would be wasted on the road. Then, the Caudillo Butterfly would be taken down without a fight, and Eom Village would be reduced to a pile of ashes. That way, the Caudillo Butterfly would be the least of the Wise Mad King's worries.
The Wise Mad King did not expect Hope to choose Nydore. Not only did the Caudillo Butterfly arrive in time, but the Caudillo Butterfly had also killed the Wise Mad King's team, which he had trained for years. The situation in Eom Village was even worse. The Caudillo Butterfly had lost so many men that they could no longer mount an effective attack. They had no choice but to retreat.
"How is this possible?!" The Wise Mad King angrily tore the secret report he had just received into pieces. "I've waited for so long! I've prepared so much, and I've set up so many traps, and now I've come up empty-handed? Hahaha! Hahahaha … "
