The earth suddenly lit up, and in the cold forest, the elves who retreated in front of the ice lake suddenly raised their heads.
They heard the bell, and the enemy disappeared. They also felt an unprecedented sense of oppression.
"Who … is that person?"
A sharp-eyed elf suddenly exclaimed. She pointed to the sky, her fingers trembling.
Everyone looked up and saw a black shadow floating above the forest. Keke frowned and whispered, "Go and take care of the wounded."
… …
"Lord Demon King!"
Fu Yin was both happy and sad. She looked up at Richard who was slowly floating down. The werewolf who had fallen into madness bared his teeth and panted heavily. After the enemy disappeared, he seemed to have fallen into a very chaotic state. After suddenly seeing the Demon King, he actually pounced over.
It seemed that after entering a berserk state, he could barely remember that Fu Yin and the others were his companions. As for the Demon King who suddenly appeared, he regarded him as an enemy.
"Bray! No! "
Fu Yin shouted, but the Demon King raised his finger and the werewolf suddenly floated up. He could not move in the air and could only wave his sharp claws desperately. He fell asleep like a baby.
"Your companion is frozen. Let him stay by the fire."
The Demon King took out a black stone. It suddenly burned and emitted a warm flame.
Fu Yin quickly took off her coat and let the frozen dwarf lie on it. The three Ke Rabbit people were also shivering. After seeing the Demon King, they had been kneeling.
"Come closer. It seems that you have encountered a lot of trouble."
"I'm sorry, Lord Demon King. My mission has failed."
The Demon King did not speak. In the face of Fu Yin's apology, he turned his head to look at the forest.
"Don't be sneaky. Come out."
As soon as his voice fell, two lights flashed. Before the other party could react, she was already kneeling in front of the Demon King. It was a female elf with blue eyes and a thin figure.
"Lalai? You are still alive! "
Fu Yin was pleasantly surprised. She was still worried about the safety of the elves just a second ago.
However, at this time, Lala was so scared that she couldn't speak. She trembled and raised her head to look at the man in front of her. That pair of bright black eyes seemed to want to swallow her soul. She could feel the terror of the other party.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Kekeli's voice was heard. She was standing halfway up the slope. Then, countless elves holding torches appeared behind her. Some were injured and were being supported by other elves. Some were holding bows and arrows, but they were pointing at the ground instead of each other.
The Demon King looked at them and couldn't help but smile. "Interesting."
…
"I'm the current Elven Queen Isabella. Greetings, King of the Ufa Great Forest. Thank you for your help."
Kekeli stood in front of the Demon King and spoke with a motherly tone.
She was a head shorter than the other party, which made her a little uncomfortable. When receiving guests, the Elven Queen was supposed to sit on a tall rattan chair.
"You are not Isabella, but you have her aura on you, although it is very weak."
The Demon King smiled. The other party only felt a little surprised and even a little offended.
The elves sat in front of a blazing bonfire. That magical stone emitted a two-meter-tall flame, bringing them the warmth of the sun. Fu Yin wanted to participate in this conversation, but the man in black told her to take care of the injured, so the latter gave up on this idea.
"If you are looking for the World Tree, then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. The World Tree is already dead."
"I am not disappointed. Moreover, I already know that there is only one reason for the elves to be displaced."
The Demon King said with a smile. The latter felt a little angry and unhappy, but she didn't show it. Instead, she sighed calmly.
For some reason, the two suddenly stopped talking. The surroundings quieted down, and only the sound of discussion from the bonfire in the distance could be heard. The guards standing behind Kekeli also felt awkward. They looked at each other and didn't know why such a situation happened.
After two minutes of silence, Keke Li finally couldn't help it. She looked at the Demon King and asked, "What are you waiting for?"
"What am I waiting for?"
The Demon King threw the question back at her.
Keke Li frowned and said, "I don't think we need to beat around the bush like this. Mr. Richard, you saved us. This is a fact. Although we didn't ask you, you killed those ice elementals. You can ask us for a reward."
Hearing this, the Demon King's lips curved. He looked at the other party with interest and asked, "Then, what can I ask for? The blessing of the elves? A flower that won't wither? Or the kiss of the Elven Queen? "
"You are too much!"
Keke Li stared at the other party. He was joking with her and the elves. He was looking down on the elves.
"Am I wrong? Without the World Tree, you are pitiful worms with nothing. Look at you now, you can't even survive a winter. "
"We don't need a big shot like you to worry about this. You can wait and see if we can survive the winter. We don't need you to worry about us."
"Is that so? Do you think you can save the wounded? "
The Demon King turned around and pointed at the wailing elves. They were injured and lying in the arms of their companions. Even so, their wounds were still full of ice crystals. These ice crystals were taking away their body heat and eating away at their lives bit by bit.
The most troublesome part of ice elemental magic was that it was difficult to heal. It would inject magic ice crystals into the wounds and circulate throughout the body. These magic ice crystals would cause the body temperature to drop until the injured died. Flames couldn't melt them. Only magic could.
But obviously, the elves didn't have enough herbs to concoct magic potions. They couldn't find those herbs in this winter.
The other party's words poked at her sore spot. Keke Li felt angry and helpless.
"We are a race that has existed for tens of thousands of years. This kind of small injury to us …"
"Not worth mentioning? Yes, for a race that has existed for tens of thousands of years, the death of a few hundred elves is indeed not worth mentioning. "
"I didn't say that. Don't try to twist words with me. This is just a piece of cake. We will find a way to heal them. If you continue to speak to me with this attitude, then I can only apologize and say that you are not welcome here, ruler of the Wussen Empire. "
Keke Li said loudly. Her expression was full of hostility, but in the eyes of the Demon King, she was just an angry kitten.
After all, when the elves were at their strongest, even Isabella had to kneel when she saw him, let alone now when there were so few of them left.
A weak race had no dignity. Clearly, the elves were still immersed in the dream of the elven kingdom of the past. What the Demon King wanted to do now was wake them up.
