Like the other elves, Dodoro's house was also on a tree. Elves' houses were not square, but came in all shapes and sizes. They had a way to turn the tree into their house, as if the tree had grown naturally.
Reina guessed that it was some kind of magic. Since the Elven King was a tree, it was not impossible to turn a tree into a house.
Dodoro's house was very high up. There were no stairs, only a long rope ladder.
"Do you need me to carry you up?"
Dodoro asked.
"No need."
Reina shook her head. Dodoro shrugged and climbed up with Reina.
At first, Dodoro was worried that Reina might not be able to keep up with her. But when she looked down, she saw a pair of eyes staring at her. She sped up, only to find that Reina was still able to keep up. So, Dodoro started crawling at full speed.
Dodoro thought that Reina would be a long way behind, but when she looked back, Reina's little head had already popped out of the house. She was not panting at all. Instead, she opened her eyes wide and said, "Wow!"
"Come on in. This is my house."
Dodoro said.
Dodoro pushed the door open and walked in. When Reina entered the house, she was shocked by what she saw.
In the simple wooden house, there was actually a golden dining table with silver cutlery on it. Not only that, but the walls were also filled with sparkling jewelry. Reina even saw a fist-sized pearl placed on top of a cabinet. Taking a closer look, the curtains in the room were all made of pearls strung together with strings.
"What's wrong?"
Dodoro asked when he saw Reina's shocked expression.
Lena awkwardly shook her head and smiled. "It's nothing."
Dodoro was confused. She walked to a cabinet and opened the drawer, only to find that it was filled with colorful gems.
Just how many treasures did this elf sister collect?
Dodoro prepared lunch. It was leftovers from last night. There was some wild boar meat, but it was good enough for Reina who was hungry. Dodoro was a man of few words. If Reina didn't take the initiative to speak, the two would remain silent. After lunch, Dodoro lay down on the bench. She liked to take out her treasured jewelry and giggle while admiring them.
"By the way, Sister Dodoro, why can you speak human language?"
Reina couldn't help but ask out of boredom.
"Many elves can also speak the human language."
Dodoro replied in a lazy tone.
Lina recalled the elf from last night. She wasn't fluent in the human language, but Dodoro didn't. She spoke very fluently.
"But I don't think the other big sister elves know how to speak."
"Because they forgot. Also, according to your human age, the elves you saw were old women who were hundreds of years old. Hey, don't say what I just said outside. "
Dodolo added.
Reina was stunned. A few hundred years old? But those elf sisters looked very young.
"How old are you, Dodoro?"
She asked curiously.
"25."
"What?! Then you're like a child among elves? "
Dodoro closed the box and said, "How is that possible? I'm a woman with a certain position in the society! Don't judge elves by your human standards. We elves are completely different! "
"Then how do you know what we humans think?"
"Because I was born and raised in the human empire."
"What?"
Lina's eyes widened. She couldn't believe her ears. Dodoro stood up from the bench and walked to the cabinet with the chest. She then took out a black badge. For some reason, Lina felt like she had seen this badge somewhere before, but the color was a little different.
"This is my badge for Dark Adventurers. I'm a half-elf. Half elf and half human. Do you understand now? Also, don't stare at my ears. It's rude for elves to do that, little girl."
Dodoro knocked on Reina's head twice. Reina apologized in a small voice.
"Elves don't eat meat. But as a half-elf, I have to eat meat. So, I'm the one who's going to keep an eye on you. Don't run around while I'm away. It's best if you stay in my room at all times. We elves hate you humans. There are exceptions, but most of us do. If you run around, you'll be beaten up. Worst case scenario, you'll be killed. "
Dodoro warned.
Although Linnai was also afraid of death, it was very boring to stay here all the time. Moreover, she was very worried about Mr. Ball's condition. Was it safe? Was it dismantled?
… …
Smoky forest, hazy fog, everywhere was filled with the silent death of the dead.
The green grass was stained with blood. A fierce battle had taken place here.
"Hold the wall! Don't slack off! "
Hala walked across the wall in her iron armor. Her brows were furrowed and her expression was serious.
The soldiers were on high alert, but they couldn't even see the ground outside the wall because of the thick mist.
Fear and uneasiness were mixed in the fog, spreading throughout the city.
At this time, a huge magic circle appeared in the sky and dispersed the dark clouds. The dazzling sun shone on the ground again, and the mist disappeared. The world became brighter again.
Fully armed, Hala raised her head. A black shadow was floating in the sky. When she saw her opponent reach out his hand, she showed a hopeful gaze, which then became even more determined.
"Everyone, attack!"
Hala shouted. The gate opened, and an unstoppable army rushed out.
After the fog dispersed, the demons and monsters hiding in the forest were beaten and fled as if they had been stripped of their clothes. The army of the Ufa Great Forest quickly spread out in all directions like ink falling into water.
Under the throne, Hala took off her iron helmet. The centaur patriarch, Liuliu, Valli, and Myr knelt on the ground and bowed their heads to the Demon King.
Hala held a thick notebook and said, "Master, 2,000 soldiers were sacrificed in this attack. 5,000 were injured. 300 were seriously injured, and 90 lost their ability to work. Other than our base camp, all the tribes lost nearly half of their resources, including cattle, sheep, fish, and other livestock … "
Listening to Hala's report, the Demon King frowned more and more, and a terrifying look appeared in his eyes.
No matter who was playing tricks in the dark, the Demon King would not spare them.
Suddenly, the Demon King gestured for Hala to stop talking.
He was silent for a while with a serious expression. Hala and the others swallowed their saliva and didn't dare to make a sound. After all, they could be held responsible for this loss. The troops stationed in the forest were much more than the invaders. Moreover, they were familiar with the environment and shouldn't have been ambushed.
The Demon King said, "Restore order in the city as soon as possible and clean up the battlefield. Don't let the evil spirits have a chance to invade."
"Yes!"
Everyone responded.
"There's one more thing, Hala."
"Yes, Master."
"I need you to prepare a batch of food and carriages and send them to the new city immediately …"
