C177 New Mission
"Young elf?" Seeing that his companion didn't seem to be lying, he said, "Tell me in detail."
The man nodded and recalled as he said, "I met that elf on the way. I was walking on the road, and because I drank some wine, I staggered and accidentally bumped into a child. I looked up and saw sharp ears. It was a living elf! "
"Wait, you said you... drank wine?" That person had a strange expression on his face. It had completely become a question. "You met an elf? I think you must have drunk too much!"
"No, definitely not! I really saw the elf!" The man shook his head and said, "I didn't drink much at that time. My consciousness was definitely awake. I just walked a little bit!"
That person had already completely changed into a manner of not caring.
"If you can casually meet elves on the way, then I can just find a random restaurant to have a meal. Would I also be able to meet the King for a private visit?"
"He's not swaggering along the way like that. ... He was wearing a cloak, and his face was hidden in it. If I hadn't knocked him down, no one would have found out that they were Elves! "
" Hey, bro, even if you found Elves, why did you let him go? He's just a little Elf, and his power is definitely not as great as yours. If you catch him and put him in the auction house, you can easily earn several thousand or tens of thousands of gold coins. Do you still need to drink that kind of rotten wine with me? "
The man denied: "The little elf is not alone, he has another person by his side. That is an adult. He is also covered in a cloak and gives off a very terrifying aura. When I knocked down the elf, that person suddenly glared at me. At that time, I felt as if I was in an ice cellar. "
The man seemed to recall the situation at that time and shivered all over. "Don't move. I can't even speak. My entire body seems to have been imprisoned! I reckon that person is also an elf. Everyone says that Elf Clan has magic talent. I think he cast magic on me. That's why I can't move. "
"And they left just like that?"
"That's right. After that, the little elf put on her cloak in a panic and left with that person. After they left for a long time, I could move again. "
I heard the man say it in such detail. That man already believed most of it.
His eyes revealed a look of yearning. "It's so good to have met an elf. No matter if you are drunk and fantasizing or really meeting an elf, at least you have a memory. Ordinary people like us may never see elves in our lives... What did the elf you saw look like? Isn't it very beautiful?"
"I'm not really sure about that. I only caught a glimpse of it in a hurry, and I was indeed a little drunk. I couldn't see clearly with my eyes, and I couldn't even tell if it was a man or a woman. However, she did have an extremely fair face. Her eyes were especially watery. Vaguely, I can smell a faint fragrance from their bodies. That fragrance is truly intoxicating. It's as beautiful as nature."
The man's expression suddenly became wretched, "Hehe, and I heard that every female elf is a peerless beauty. In bed, they can bring more pleasure to men than human girls..."
"Just think about it!"
"Haha!"
The two of them finished their conversation about the elves. Then, they began to talk about dirty jokes.
Yu Yue guessed that this was all the information about the elves that this man had. He followed them for a while and lost interest. He left the two of them.
Through their conversation, although the man's words were very vague and did not seem to have any credibility, when they overlapped with the things Yu Yue had encountered, there was a 80% chance that what he said was true.
In Tree Devil Valley, there were a total of two elves that were treated as commodities. They were the same as the man's description, an adult elf and a young elf.
Just based on this high compatibility, it was very likely that what he said was true. Since he could see the elves outside, it meant that the two elves had come out of the iron box.
The Chamber of Commerce would never let go of such valuable goods, which meant that they might have escaped.
Thinking about this Yu Yue gave him a headache.
Why did they escape at this time? The emblem on his chest was full of uncertainty, although he did not know what it was for. He had a vague premonition that this was a mark made by the Elves to find him.
If they really found him, then he would be in big trouble.
If they really escaped, then there was a high chance that the Chamber of Commerce would go all out to hunt them down. That was a large Chamber of Commerce, and it was filled with experts. Yu Yue alone wouldn't be able to deal with them. A single mishap would result in death. He did not want to get involved in this mess.
This was really troublesome. Yu Yue confirmed his next trip. As expected, he should go to the Mercenary Union to accept a mission first. He would do the mission while hiding from the limelight. He would come back in a month's time.
After confirming his thoughts, he stopped and turned around to walk in the opposite direction. That was where the Mercenary Guild was located.
However, just as he lifted his foot and did not land, his body froze there.2
It was not because he was restricted by a special power, but because he was so shocked that he froze in place - because a familiar system prompt rang in his ears. He was actually forced to accept another quest by the Grand Knight passive system!
This mission had nothing to do with Elves. It was related to a building beside him.
He turned his head to look. Unknowingly, he came to the side of a magnificent building.
There was a huge courtyard in the distance, and within the courtyard was a building that was as grand as a castle.
It was clearly within the city, so how could there be such a building?
The huge courtyard was filled with countless flowers and plants, and the sounds of flowers chirping could be heard. There was a huge iron railing that separated the courtyard from the outside world.
The castle was built in the deepest part of the courtyard. It was a beautifully decorated castle. It was blood-red in color and looked like a castle for nobles.
No, it was very likely that the owner of this building was a noble. Otherwise, it would not be possible to build such a huge castle in such a place.
Just as they were looking at the fort from afar, another person was also looking at the fort from afar.
That person had a pair of bright eyes. Her entire body was wrapped in black cloth. Other than her face revealing her eyes, her entire body was hidden in the black cloth.
Only the skin around her eyes was exposed to the air. However, from this tiny bit of skin, one could see that her skin was extremely delicate and pure.
She looked at the dark red castle from afar. A gust of wind blew and suddenly lifted her veil. Under the black veil, a bright and beautiful face was revealed.
If Yu Yue saw it, he would definitely scream and pounce on her. Because this woman was the thief who stole his money!
