Miss Elf Dragon
Chapter 36 Escape
Adonis, who was missed by Perotina, was very irritable at this time. He and the mermaid Delia had been hunted for a while, and they fled more and more remote places. There were no traces of human beings in the places he had walked in the past few days. , except for the pursuers who were still chasing after him.
Picking up the dry food and putting it down again, Adonis sighed, not having the slightest appetite to eat. Thinking that he had not heard from the baby since he left home, he felt worried and guilty, fearing that the baby would think something had happened to him and be afraid.
"Adunis, I'm sorry, it's all me who has dragged you down."
Mermaid Delia also sat over with dry food, her face full of apologies and uneasiness.
Adonis took a bite of the pancake mechanically and said nothing.
It was indeed her who was dragging him down, and he began to regret why he had thought of Adrien's charm and meddling in other people's affairs to save his people. It's not even appropriate to call them clansmen, because although they are both members of the sea clan, they are not the same species. One is Haiwu and the other is Mermaid. They are completely different in terms of bloodline, talent and other aspects.
"I'm sorry, Adonis, otherwise you just leave me alone and just put me down here."
The mermaid girl Delia suddenly burst into tears, forcing Adonis to speak.
"Although no trace of the pursuers has been found in the past two days, they must still be following closely. Once you walk alone, you will be caught by them within half a day."
Adonis's voice was hoarse due to improper eating and rest, and was no longer as clear and bright as usual. The person listening didn't realize the slight mockery in his tone, and didn't know that his little thoughts had already been seen through.
She clearly knew that he wanted something from her and would not abandon her, so did she cry like this on purpose?
Adonis took a sip of water to moisten his throat and didn't want to talk anymore. He didn't react to such a method at first, thinking that the mermaid really felt that it was dragging him down and wanted to leave. But the more times she did it, she didn't take any actual action. Instead, she stuck closer to him and didn't want to tell him the second half of the news, so he knew what she really thought.
Speaking of which, after the caravan took the mermaid sisters away, Adonis planned to drop them off in the town and leave. This was also the original purpose of their ride. But before they were separated, a purple kite flower bloomed, and the mermaid girl found him again while he was choosing gifts at the market, and she also brought a large number of powerful pursuers.
Of course, he couldn't watch the person he had just rescued die in front of his eyes. Adonis took action to block the attack of the pursuers and protected the mermaid sisters behind him.
"What's going on? How did you get into trouble with the demons?" Adonis asked the embarrassed Delia with a frown.
Yes, the pursuers are not ordinary people. Although they all wore masks and disguised themselves, Adonis determined after several fights that these people were undoubtedly demons. They were all moon demons, tall and good at physical attacks.
"I don't know either. I was releasing healing magic in the river to treat Betty's injuries. They suddenly appeared and killed Betty."
Having said this, Delia clutched the corner of Adonis' clothes and started to cry. It was obvious that something bad had happened to her already unwell sister.
"Mermaid, I can only blame you for being disobedient. Hand over your things obediently, otherwise you will definitely not end well."
The leader of the pursuers threatened Delia verbally. He was not overly worried that Adonis would prevent them from completing their mission. Although he was at a disadvantage in the encounter just now, they were outnumbered and Adonis' ability was not enough to eliminate all of their elite team.
"And you, if you are sensible, please go away quickly and don't hinder our elite Moon Demon Guards from performing their official duties. We must catch this mermaid who steals things."
"Stealing things Delia, did you take anything from the Moon Demon Clan?"
Adonis turned around and asked. It is true that there are many cases of demons maliciously hurting people, but the elite guards represent the face of the demon lord of the clan, and most of their actions have a reason. Since the other party said this, it is likely that there is something wrong with Delia.
"I, I didn't." The mermaid girl shook her head with tears. Her delicate appearance really made people feel distressed. It's a pity that no one present was sympathetic to her.
"Stop making excuses. It's true that you stole our clan's secret treasure. That's why the Demon Lord personally sent down the demonic order to capture you."
"No, it's not me. I wanted to take it away, but there were too many restrictions on the secret treasure and I couldn't succeed. As for why it disappeared later, I really don't know." Delia explained hurriedly, but unfortunately no matter which number it was, Again, even the guards would not believe this rhetoric.
"Whether you know or not, it will be clear after you are captured and interrogated. If you are idle, stay away and do not disturb the Moon Demon Elite Guards from performing their official duties." The leader's last sentence was obviously meant for Adonis.
Adonis stood there hesitantly. The Moon Demon Lord is one of the few among the Thirteen Demon Lords in Sin City who can be said to have some moral integrity. Although he still has the greed, selfishness and evil of the demons in his nature, he has his own philosophy of life in dealing with the world. All ethnic groups have a pretty good reputation, and they are quite thin-faced.
"No, Mr. Elf, don't leave me. I will be killed by them. I really didn't steal anything."
The mermaid Delia pulled Adonis's clothes and cried, hoping that he could save her again.
"Delia, Lord Moon Demon may have some misunderstanding about you. He is not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately. If you are worried about your life, why don't you come with me?"
Adonis sighed and started doing things for himself again. He is not a kind-hearted person, but the matter has come to him, and he has a previous fate with the mermaid girl. He really can't watch her die in front of him.
"No, if I don't go, my fiancé will die there. If I go, I won't survive. I don't want to die."
Delia suddenly became excited and resisted Adonis's arrangement at the top of her lungs, leaving him in silence.
Seeing that Adonis had not persuaded the mermaid properly, the leader of the guard raised his weapon and tried to capture Delia by force.
"No Adonis, please save me. As long as you save me, I will tell you a secret. Do you know the big secret about the elves? Someone from the demon clan is going to attack the elves."
Delia's words made Adonis raise his head suddenly. He thought about it for many years

The letter that former dark elf Jonas originally intended to give to the Elf Queen in exchange for the holy medicine contained only one sentence:
There is a demon lord who wants to do harm to the elves, so I hope arrangements can be made as soon as possible.
After thinking about it, Adonis grabbed the mermaid and ran away. There were too many strong men in the bodyguards. If he were alone, he could hit them one by one without any scruples, but with this helpless mermaid, he would have no choice but to run away. He couldn't let anything happen to the merman, at least not until he'd asked everything he wanted to know.
So, Adonis took the mermaid girl and began to escape day and night. The embarrassment and bitterness during this period really made him very irritable. After so many years of walking outside as a great elf, this was the first time he had experienced such a thing.
"Delia, you either tell everything you know, or you face the interrogation of those demon guards yourself. Except for the sea clan's garrison, I have no obligation to escort you to other places. I have helped you get here." I have run out of benevolence. As for the secret you mentioned, it might save me more time to find out myself than to wait for you to tell me."
Once again, Adonis deviated from his destination due to the interference of the mermaid. He was angry and could no longer pretend to have discovered nothing and live in peace with the mermaid.
As they had agreed at the beginning, he would send her to the protection of the Sea Tribe, and she would tell him the details of what she had overheard about the Demon Lord's intention to harm the Elf Tribe. However, nearly a month had passed, and the mermaid repeatedly pointed Adonis in the wrong direction on purpose, which gradually made him understand that this mermaid probably did not want to return to his tribe.
It's not like he doesn't have other ways to pry open the mermaid's mouth and know what's in her mind. Adonis knows a lot about hypnosis, soul searching, etc. But although he is not an upright gentleman, he is not willing to force a weak woman who seems to be about the same age as his own daughter. But now he can no longer tolerate this mermaid girl with ulterior motives.
"No, Adonis, don't leave me. I don't want to die. I really don't want to die. Let me tell you. I'll tell you everything."
The long pursuit made Delia exhausted both physically and mentally. Seeing that Adonis seriously stated that he wanted to leave her, she no longer had the energy to think about how to use some conspiracy to achieve her own ideas, so she decided to confess.
"The reason why I don't want to go back is because it is no longer my home. My family was killed by the mermaid crown prince. He wanted me to be his lover but I refused, and he secretly had a relationship with my fiancé. He killed my family to express his hatred."
For thousands of years, mermaids can be said to be one of the most reclusive tribes among the sea tribe. Haiti itself is vast and rich in resources. They are self-sufficient in production and life, and their interactions with the outside world have become less and less. This has also made the ethnic group's ideas tend to be old-fashioned and conservative. For example, they attach great importance to the chastity of mermaid girls. Women who lose their virginity will be severely punished and cannot remarry to achieve happiness. So after Delia lost her virginity, the crown prince felt that he had been cuckolded and launched a crazy revenge.
Delia, her sister and her fiancé took advantage of the chaos and escaped, but she could never return to her home. In order to take revenge on the Mermaid Crown Prince, Delia wanted to lower his bloodline level and make him fall off the altar and become a mortal. It happened that a secret treasure of the Moon Demon Clan had this effect.
Mermaid thrones are hereditary, and the descendants with the purest blood are selected to inherit. The crown prince is favored and loved by the king precisely because of his natural blood. Even if he has no talent or lawlessness, he is not afraid of losing his qualifications to inherit. Rather than killing the crown prince, it would be more painful for him to take away the thing he relied on most, not to mention that after losing his glorious identity, he would definitely live a life worse than death under the revenge of those he bullied.
However, the ideal is full, but the reality is cruel. Although they discovered the location of the secret treasure, they could not get close or take it away. They were even able to escape after Delia's fiancé sacrificed his life. But in the process of stealing the secret treasure, she heard some news related to elves.
"At that time, I was hiding in the secret room and heard someone saying that the chess pieces in the Elf Forest were almost deployed. When the elves compete, it will be time for them to take action. After that, the elves will once again return to the weak state they were thousands of years ago. He is in such a state that the world can bully him at will, and he also said that when the time comes, he will bring the most beautiful elves into his room."
Delia lowered her head and repeated softly, fearing that these malicious and insulting words would make Adonis furious.
Adonis was very calm. He continued to ask: "What does the person who said these words look like? Do you know which demon lord he is?"
"I don't know." Delia shook her head. "I only heard him say these two sentences before he was discovered. I didn't even see his face. I only knew that his voice was particularly unpleasant, which made people feel uncomfortable. I want to frown.”
What kind of characteristic is this? Adonis also frowned, completely unable to make a judgment based on this.
"Thank you for telling me this news. It's very important. I'm afraid I won't be able to send you where you want to go. But I will take a dummy with me to help you distract the pursuers, giving you at least three days. Leaving, this is much safer for you than me taking you with me, you know we can't run fast together."
After hearing what Adonis said, Delia hesitated to speak. She vaguely felt that this was inappropriate, but it was indeed like what he said. If they continued walking together, sooner or later they would be overtaken by pursuers, and that would be the real danger.
"But I don't have much power, and there are so many bad people in the outside world," Delia said in a whisper, still reluctant to leave the protection of Adonis.
You know it's complicated outside and you're weak, why are you running out?
Adonis took a deep breath and swallowed the urge to curse. It was the right decision to leave now. He didn't want to stay with this blood-sucking insect anymore.
"I'll leave the horses for you, and I've prepared some dry food and transportation for you. There will be a river along this road. Walking along the river bank, you can use the water element to cast your natural magic. After that, you can either find a place to hide. It’s up to you whether you want to live in seclusion or live with a reliable person. Let’s just say goodbye.”
After saying that, Adonis put down the things he wanted to give to the mermaid and left, leaving Delia standing there alone for a long time.
The fast-moving Adonis did not choose another direction, but instead headed in the direction from which the pursuers came. He wanted to sneak into Sin City to find out information, so he needed a suitable identity that would allow him to move around easily. The elite bodyguards of the Moon Demon Lord were a good choice.
Thinking of this, Adonis's eyes burst out with a compelling light.
No matter who you are, even all the demon lords, if you want to destroy the Elf Forest and harm the foundation of the Elf clan, I will absolutely not allow it.
