Chapter 770: Chapter 484: Followers of the God of Hunting
Lis gathered the aura and came to stand by Daphne, who wasnât far off.
Daphne did not show any sense of worry or fear, unlike when she had first arrived at Jade City. These past few months, she had earnestly undergone Lisâs Special Training and guidance.
During this time, Daphne endured more beatings than ever before, which also made her less panicked when facing battles.
Daphne was somewhat excited, as watching Lis defeat the attacker with such efficiency inspired a sense of longing in her heart.
However, seeing the serious expression on Lisâs face, Daphne refrained from saying much and obediently stayed aside.
Several figures appeared in Lisâs view, the Elf Guard of Andor City had arrived promptly.
Since the destruction of the Elf Royal Court by Demogorgon, Andor City had instantly become tense. Under King Haddadâs arrangement, multiple Elf Legends patrolled the city every day, with Elf Guard teams patrolling both inside Andor City and the forests outside around the clock.
Upon sensing the fluctuations of battle, the nearest Elf Team also quickly made its way here.
It wasnât long before a few Elves dressed as Rangers appeared before Lis and the others.
âLord Lis?â
The Elf Captain looked at Lis with surprise.
As a protective force of Andor City, they were naturally aware of the important figures within the city.
Although this was Sage Lisâs first visit to Andor City, he had nevertheless received considerable attention from His Majesty the King. For this reason, the leader of the Elf Guard had instructed everyone to pay special attention to Sage Lis.
An accident occurring in Andor City at all costs must be avoided.
But why was the sage here all of a sudden?
Had he personally intervened in the recent battle?
Was there a sneak attack?
The Elf Captainâs mind instantly became tense as he vigilantly surveyed the surroundings.
Seeing the several towering trees that had fallen in the forest and the ground that looked as though it had been swept by a violent storm, the captain could imagine how intense the battle here had been in the few short minutes it lasted.
âThe attack I just suffered here.â
Lis looked at the Elf Captain, speaking in a calm tone:
âThe attacker was a Day Elf.â
âWhat?â
âImpossible!â
âHow could it be a Day Elf?â
âCould you have seen wrong?â
The Elves following the captain were taken aback and couldnât help but blurt out their questions.
âEveryone stop talking for now.â
The captain turned his head to address his team members, then looked back at Lis:
âItâs not that we donât believe you, but the idea of a Day Elf attacking you is quite unexpected.â
âI did not see wrong.â
Lis shook his head, then raised his right hand, and with a surge of Magic Power, he conjured the likeness of a blonde Elf, turning to ask the Elf Captain:
âDo you recognize who this is?â
The Elf Captain looked closely at the image that appeared in Lisâs hand.
It was a middle-aged Elf with an expressionless face, whose distinctive golden hair and eyes, if not disguised, certainly made him appear to be a Day Elf.
âI am sorry, Sage Lord.â
The Elf Captain hesitated slightly before shaking his head:
âThis does indeed look like a Day Elf, but I donât recognize him.â
âIt seems he doesnât belong to the Illiser Family of the Day Elves, but I canât be sure.â
The Elf Captain could hardly suppress his astonishment; he did not believe the sage would confirm what he said by fabricating the appearance of a Day Elf.
He was about to leave Andor City anyway, so what was the point of doing this all of a sudden?
And wasnât the relationship between King Haddad and Sage Lis quite good these past few days? The captainâs scalp tingled just thinking about this sensitive matter.
âMay I ask boldly, Sage Lord, where is that Day Elf now?â
The Elf Captain hesitated for a moment before asking Lis.
âDead.â
Lis nodded and said.
âDead?â
The Elf Captain was somewhat surprised; although that Day Elf might not be from the Alorotti family, killing him so directly seemed a bit excessive.
âThatâs enough for now.â
Lis shook his head, not intending to say more.
âI am now heading to Andor City, you tidy up here.â
âPerhaps youâll find some new clues.â
âYes.â
The Elf Captain thought for a moment, then turned to his team members and said:
âEvar, Salin, the two of you stay behind to check, the rest will come with me to escort the Sage Lord back to the city.â
No matter what, it was certain that the Sage Lord had been attacked.
Regardless of whether the attacker was a Day Elf or not, protecting the Sage Lordâs safety was now the most important thing.
Lis did not refuse, although such protection was almost irrelevant to him.
On the way back to Andor City, Rosanara whispered to Lis:
âWhat are you planning to do?â
âIsnât it just an attacker? Why not just leave it to the Elf Kingdom to handle?â
âArenât we still going to Elf Land?â
In response to Rosanaraâs confusion, Lis smiled and said:
âDonât you find it strange, why were we attacked just as we left Andor City?â
âIs it because someone is watching us?â
Rosanara quickly realized.
âRight, and I find that Day Elf very strange. Itâs likely nothing more than a diversion.â
âMost importantly, the aura on that Day Elf reminded me of a very interesting existence.â
Lis said softly, their conversation not reaching the Elf Captain following closely behind.
