Chapter 218 219. Tinais Village

Tinais Village is a small village in the south of Padstow City. Almost all the villagers living here are mixed elves. The villagers usually make a living by collecting magic herbs. There are also some mixed elven hunters who go south to hunt monsters in the jungle.

However, north of the Griffin Barrier, there are fewer and fewer low-level monsters in the forest, and the harvests of the elf hunters are also getting smaller and smaller.

Even when the elves first broke into the Partington plane, the high-level monsters ran decisively into the deep mountains and swamps south of the Griffin Barrier.

Now the life of the villagers here is gradually becoming difficult, and everyone is beginning to look for some new ways out.

The elf hunters in the village are also considering whether they can climb over the Griffin Barrier...

Guide Margery is very familiar with many elves in the village. This is mainly because each elf can live a long time. Even if they only meet once a year, everyone will become friends over time.

What's more, Margery is a guide. He knows a lot of information that other elves don't know, so Margery is very popular in Tinais Village.

He explained the current situation of Tinais Village to Instructor Nora, and then took Instructor Nora into Tinais Village.

Instructor Nora wanted to call Sabrina and Christine to go with her, but in the end she called Roy.

"Roy, come with me for a walk in the village of Tinais."

Instructor Nora shouted to Roy who was setting up the tent.

Roy threw away the iron drill in his hand, stood up and said, "Oh, here we come!"

"You guys wait for me outside, while Margery and I go to the village to find out about the Griffin Barrier."

Instructor Nora said to the members of the adventure group.

After saying that, he took Roy and followed the guide Margery into Tinais Village.

As soon as I walked into the village, I saw an old mixed-blood elf sitting under a big tree to enjoy the coolness. He was holding half a cup of fruit tea in his hand.

Seeing Guide Margery walking into the village, the old mixed-blood elf immediately said hello:

"Margery, where are you going this time?"

Margery stopped, came to the old elf and said:

"Griffin Barrier, Uncle Adji, I want to try again this time to see if I can climb over that mountain ridge!"

The old mixed-blood elf almost wrinkled his face. He glanced at Nora and Roy with some scruples, and then said implicitly:

"We still have to go on adventures! Where do these adventurers come from?"

"They are from Castleton City." Margery didn't hide anything.

The old elf's eyes lit up, and his eyes seemed to be filled with memories, and he said with a smile:

"That's a good place. I lived there for a while when I was young. Later, the Naga Sea Tribe fought a war. The army wanted us mixed-blood elves to be used as cannon fodder, so we took a boat and ran away overnight..."

Margery quickly interrupted the old elf's memories and said to him:

"Uncle Adeji, don't keep telling the stories about your youth. I've almost memorized them. Didn't your son always want to climb over the griffin barrier and hunt the devil antelope over there? How about it? What's there? Can the news be revealed?”

The old mixed-blood elf didn't hide anything and said:

"He did find three passes, but even the passes are cliffs hundreds of meters high, and there are griffons' nests on both sides. As long as there are living creatures clinging to the rock walls, those griffons will go crazy. Attack, let me tell you! We can ask a group of dwarves to help and ask them to dig a tunnel under the Griffin Barrier Mountain and pass directly through the barrier. This is the best way to avoid those Griffins."

Roy was speechless when he heard the old mixed elf suggested asking dwarves to dig tunnels.

Instructor Nora asked strangely:

"Are there no elf hunters to hunt those griffins?"

Margery smiled bitterly and said: "Of course there are, but hunting griffins is very dangerous. Those griffins are not only cunning, but also extremely ferocious, and they don't have many valuable materials. Very few people are willing to wear griffin skins. The supporting leather armor is not as good as the magic antelope leather, but it is several times harder to catch than the magic antelope..."

Instructor Nora said:

"In fact, in my opinion, the reason why we have never been able to climb the griffin barrier is because of the existence of this group of griffins. As long as these griffins are driven away, nothing will dare to stop us."

Guide Margery looked at Instructor Nora in surprise, and whispered from the side: "Want to drive away those griffins? It's better to find some dwarves to dig a tunnel..."

…

Maybe it was getting close to night, and the young elves in the village appeared out of nowhere.

Everyone gathered at the entrance of the village. When some elves saw the adventure group, they ran over and asked a few instructors if they came with the caravan to sell things. The instructors explained that this was an adventure group, and young elves immediately joined them. Come here, they hope to explore the south with the adventure group.

Several instructors could not decide this matter, so everyone waited for instructor Nora to come back.

When Instructor Nora returned to the camp from the village, he heard that the young elves in the village planned to join the adventure group temporarily, but did not agree to their request.

Instructor Nora said that only capable elf warriors can join the adventure group. These young elves in the village obviously do not have such strength.

Elves pursue romance and like freedom and a casual life, but they are also lazy. Young elves need to practice martial arts if they want to become a qualified warrior...

The young elves expressed their dissatisfaction. They felt that there were even two young female elves and a half-elf in the adventure group. Aren't they young people?

"You can compete with anyone you want, but you have to challenge what they are good at."

Instructor Nora glanced at Sabrina and Miss Christine and said casually.

A group of young elves suddenly became interested, and some elves around them also came over to watch the fun. One of them was a strong mixed-blood elf who was selected by them. His skin color was a little dark, and he obviously had the blood of the Dark Moon elves, and his figure He is also very burly, with very strong muscles all over his body. He is obviously a powerful warrior.

Seeing these young elves pushing such a big man out, Instructor Nora finally sat up straight.

The young elves in Tinais Village snickered, and everyone seemed to be waiting for a good show.

Perhaps these young elves from Tinais Village have no intention of venturing to the south at all. They just want to make instructor Nora look down upon them, and then compete with the young members of the adventure group.

Maybe it's just an excuse to get close to Sabrina and Miss Christine...

"Then who are you going to compete with?" Instructor Nora raised his head and asked the sturdy young elf.

The sturdy young elf first glanced at Miss Christine. She had an innate aristocratic temperament, and the young elf did not even dare to look directly at her...

The young elf then looked at Sabrina.

Sabrina didn't give him a chance to look at Roy. She stood up from the tent entrance. Holding a heavy sword wrapped in linen bandages, she strode directly towards the sturdy young elf and asked him : "Do you want to compete with me?"

The young elves in the village immediately burst into cheers...

The young elf took the initiative and nodded to Sabrina, turned around and took the war spear handed over by his companion, and assumed an offensive stance against Sabrina.

Everyone took the initiative to form a circle around the camp, and even the elves accompanying the caravan came over one after another...

In the dusk, Sabrina's face still looked very fair, and her eyes like two emeralds exuded a confident brilliance. She held the heavy sword in both hands and looked heroic.

Roy felt that these young elves in Tinais Village might just want Sabrina to stand up and compete.

The young elves' eyes were focused on Sabrina.

Probably seeing Sabrina getting ready for battle, the young elf holding the war spear no longer hesitated. He grasped the handle of the spear tightly with both hands, and when he rushed forward, he turned around and swept the war spear horizontally.

The huge force made the war spear make a sound of breaking wind.

I thought that Sabrina would give in, so that the young elf would immediately swing a heavy blow, and then let the war spear be lifted from the right side. After such a coherent set of actions, Sabrina would continue to Forced to respond, it is difficult to have a chance to fight back before exhaustion.

But Sabrina did not take a step back to avoid the sweep as the young elf expected.

She dragged the heavy sword with both hands, and actually made the same move as the young elf, and swung the heavy sword at the young elf.

'when'

With a deafening sound, Sabrina grasped the heavy sword tightly with both hands, and actually shook the war spear from the young elf's hand...

Sabrina slammed the heavy sword directly into the young elf's empty door. A blurry sword dancer appeared behind her. Sabrina's shoulder hit the young elf's chest hard. As she turned her wrist, there was no one left. The bandaged heavy sword was placed on the young elf's shoulder.

In just one round, Sabrina forced the young elf to the point where he could not attack...

Then she easily took back the heavy sword in her hand, turned around and reached the tent door, all movements done in one go.

The young elves watching around did not even see what was going on, and the battle was already over...

Among the several instructors, only Instructors Nora and Vergil knew about Sabrina's strength. Instructors Eleanor and Gru also looked at Sabrina in surprise, not knowing what to say for a moment. What to order.

"oops!"

All the young elves let out a burst of regretful hisses.

These young mixed-blood elves live in a small village on the Partington plane. They have not seen much real elf combat skills. They only occasionally learn a few tricks from passing travelers. Naturally, they are not Sabu who studies martial arts in the elf academy. Lina's opponent.

Instructor Nora walked out of the city of Padstow and saw the lives of these young elves in the village. It was already clear in her heart that the mixed elves living on the Partington plane were actually controlled by Padstow. The Silver Moon Elf nobles in Sto City suppressed them very hard, and the mixed elves here couldn't even get the education they deserved.

The young elves here only know how to hunt, collect herbs, and search for gems in the mountains and fields.

Originally, Instructor Nora thought that the Partington plane was a refuge for the mixed elves, but now it seems that this place is more like a prison for them.

These young elves didn't even realize that they could go out from here and see the vast sky of the outside world.

At this time, another young elf holding a forest bow stood in front of Miss Christine...

The forest bow in his hand even has some patina on it, and the bowstring is completely integrated with the hardwood bow. The arrow pot on his waist is even older, but the tail feathers of each arrow are trimmed very neatly. .

"Can I compete with you in archery?" The thin young elf had a colorful rope tied to his right arm, with a strong sense of confidence in his eyes.

A look of expectation once again appeared in the eyes of the young elves in Tinais Village.

There are even elves shouting: "Abe, let them see what archery is!"

Miss Christine turned her head and glanced at Instructor Nora, then raised her head to face the young elf hunter named Abe, and asked bluntly: "How are you going to compete?"

As a Silver Moon Elf, Miss Christine can naturally suppress any mixed-blood elf with her aura.

Elf hunter Abe pointed to a big tree at the entrance of the village with some restraint, and said to Miss Christine: "There is a target on the trunk of that tree, let's compete with who can shoot accurately!"

Miss Christine stood up, glanced at the tree, and said, "First..."

The elf hunter Abe drew the forest bow with full confidence. The young elves around him held their breath. The elf hunter Abe shot out an arrow and hit the target.

There was cheering all around.

Miss Christine tied her flowing hair into a ponytail and stood sideways next to the hunter Abe. Her whole person's temperament immediately changed, and her whole person was like a tightened bow. , she held the battle short bow in one hand, raised her arm, and all the elves around her fell silent.

She casually pulled out an arrow from the quiver, and Roy saw with his own eyes that she injected a trace of wind element into the arrow, and after the combat short bow was fully drawn...

The arrow was wrapped in a light white mist-like wind element and turned into a white line. It just hit the arrow inserted in the bullseye by the hunter Abe, and immediately broke Abe's arrow into pieces.

After the arrow was shot, the young elves in Tinais Village suddenly became silent...

Everyone looked at Sabrina and Miss Christine in surprise. Some young elves originally wanted to take the opportunity to strike up a conversation with them, but now they were frightened by the two female elves and backed away.

Even the young elves who originally wanted to compete with Roy recoiled.

Instructor Nora took the opportunity to stand up from the front of the tent and said to the elves in Tinais Village around him:

"We are from the Castletown Elf Academy. These are all students in the academy and members of our adventure group. They all learn martial arts and archery at the Elf Academy. Only through learning can we improve ourselves more systematically. Change yourself and make yourself more aware of your shortcomings and strengths, so that you can grow up quickly and become an excellent warrior..."
