“Captain, we don’t have many arrows left.”

Sir Taize continued to remind him.

“We should retreat, or we’ll all die here.”

He still steadily drew his bow and fired, but his tone was already anxious, “Those images are bait to lure us forward. There’s no inheritance of a powerful civilization here at all. Moreover, we’re not a match for these d*mned black beasts! We should retreat!”

Estes was silent for a moment before saying, “We can’t leave. We can’t leave either.”

When Sir Taize heard this, he turned around. The entrance they had come from was coiled with a malicious shadow. The cunning black beasts had already cut off their retreat. This made his heart sink, and then he was shocked and furious.

“What exactly do you want?”

He shouted.

After entering this underground space and seeing the black beasts, the captain was shocked and called out the name of the black beasts. Then, he rushed in regardless. The elves were helpless and could only follow.

However, they did not expect to be surrounded now.

It was simply suicide.

When he thought of this, Sir Taize was extremely shocked and furious. He shouted, “Captain, please explain your intentions immediately! Even a ship’s commander has no right to order his subordinates to die for no reason!”

As the captain spoke, he still drew his bow and nocked an arrow. He killed one after another and attacked the black beasts who tried to advance. He slowly exhaled, “Because these are Void Spirits… the minions of Chaos, the spirits outside the curtain.”

Sir Taize shouted, “So what!”

The captain said in a low voice, “For a moment, it’s very difficult to explain clearly. Sir Taize, you only need to know that in time, when these things all come to the surface, the entire Holy Seal Islands will change. The power outside the curtain will continue to erode until it spreads to the entire world. We have to stop this from happening!”

At this point, the captain’s face revealed mania and uneasiness. He shouted in a low voice, “D*mn! Weren’t these things completely sealed by the gods? Why did they appear again?!”

Sir Taize looked confused.

With just a few words from the captain, he really could not understand and accept it.

He shouted, “At the very least, let’s leave here first and reorganize our situation before coming up with a countermeasure. We have to discuss it with Master Rackles! Or we can return and ask the dynasty for help!”

“It’s too late! The passageway has already opened. If these guys go outside, there will definitely be endless trouble. Even if only one slips out, it’s a huge risk to the entire world!”

The captain gritted his teeth and said, “We’re already here! If we kill our way back, we’ll encounter many obstacles and our losses will definitely be extremely heavy. We have to continue forward and go to the town in front to set up the defense and wait for help. Adjutant Myron will definitely send someone to help. Only by cooperating from the inside can we rush out!”

“Moreover… we have to at least explore what’s inside!”

The captain looked at Sir Taize, who was still hesitating, and shouted sternly, “Isn’t this enough to make you make up your mind? Sir! I know it’s very difficult for you to understand and accept what I’m saying, but I ask you to show the responsibility and responsibility of an elf noble. I swear on my soul that everything I say is true—the fate of the entire world might be in our hands now!”

Sir Taize was silent for a moment before shouting, “You heard it! Continue forward!”

They followed the flat road and rushed forward to the town in the center of the underground space. Strange beast roars were everywhere, and a disturbing force spread in this huge space as if something terrifying was staring at them. The elves opened the way with their bows and arrows and relied on their precise archery and brave martial strength to break through the encirclement of the black beasts and enter this silent town.

“To the center of the town!” Captain Estes shouted. “That largest building!”

After a long journey, Adjutant Myron arrived at the rift valley.

Accompanying them were the dozen or so elves.

Along the way, a few elves quietly left.

The remaining elves looked at each other in silence and descended silently.

They warily followed the captain and the others’ footprints and saw the fragments of the holy artifact all over the ground, as well as the shocking scene. They also arrived at the entrance of the underground space.

He saw the strange black pool, the ferocious beasts, the dead town, and the corpses of his clansmen.

The black beasts discovered new prey and pounced at them.

The elves still maintained a high level of combat strength. Coupled with the fact that this was the entrance of the cave and the space was narrow, it was convenient to use. With swords in front and bows behind, more than ten elves were more than enough to block the entrance. Myron anxiously searched for the captain and the others, but he could not find them, so he blew the horn.

A low call filled the entire space.

“I heard the horn!”

In the building in the center of the town, the arrow regiment soldier who had sent arrows to stop the enemy shouted, “They’re here!”

In the room on the third floor, Sir Taize put down the scroll in his hand. Sweat drenched his back.

He read the contents recorded on it. Even the incomprehensible ancient words were seen through by him… A little was enough.

The captain said, “Do you still doubt my decision?”

Sir Taize said in a trembling voice, “We have to bring it back to Twilight and hand it to Her Majesty!”

The captain said in a low voice, “We have to destroy this place too.”

The soldier’s report came from outside.

The captain perked up. “Adjutant Myron is here with reinforcements! Meet them!”

With his order, the remaining elven warriors immediately gathered. They left this building and planned to return the way they came. However, the moment Sir Taize brought out the scroll, the entire underground space shook. The black beasts jumped out of the black pool as if they had gone crazy, and their attacks were ten times more ferocious.

“It’s this scroll!”

Sir Taize roared, “Hurry up and break out!”

The elves’ arrows were like locusts as they ran wildly in the direction of the entrance. The distance of hundreds of meters was filled with death and obstruction. The black beasts pounced crazily from all directions. As Sir Taize advanced, he roared sternly, “Adjutant Myron! Myron! Go call all the reinforcements! Come and meet us! Hurry!”

Captain Estes also shouted, “Adjutant Myron! I’m Captain Estes! Send someone to convey my order and order the Wayne Wings to forcefully set sail and approach the coast. Take all the…”

They were already closed, so they could hear him shouting from afar.

Therefore, they also heard Adjutant Myron’s sobbing roar of despair.

“Captain! Sir! I’m sorry!” The adjutant cried. “The Wayne Wings has been occupied by the Goethe people! The troops on the island have almost been wiped out! I’m sorry, I’m sorry to the Royal Navy!”

These words struck the hearts of the two elf officers like a bolt of lightning.

They almost lost their balance and were almost caught by the black beasts.

Endless despair pressed down.

It was not for their lives or their honor.

Instead, it was for… the entire country, and even the entire world.

This meant that this scroll could not be sent out, and this meant that this place could not be destroyed.

This might mean… the beginning of the end.

“No…”

Sir Taize muttered, “There’s another way.”

Captain Estes said slowly, “There’s another way.”

Under such circumstances, Sir Taize actually smiled bitterly. “How ironic.”

“Yes… ironic.”

It was as if they were talking in riddles.

However, the two elves already knew each other’s thoughts.

It was a unanimous decision.

Sir Taize took off the scroll he had kept close to him and wrapped it around an arrow. He pricked it carefully and looked at the captain. “Are you coming?”

The captain smiled. “Do it yourself, country boy.”

He drew his bow and quickly shot at the approaching black beast before advancing with difficulty.

It made the plan safer.

Sir Taize took a deep breath and nocked this arrow to the bow. He held his breath and his eyes were sharp. He slowly drew the bow and pulled it back bit by bit. This was the most important arrow in his life and he could not afford to make a mistake.

“Myron Eckles!” he shouted sternly. “In the name of the Empress, I give you an order that must be carried out. You must not refuse, run away, or fail!”

The arrow flew, whistling through the sky and shooting toward the entrance.

Adjutant Myron’s voice sounded, “Yes! I’ll obey your order! I’ll disregard my honor!”

He wished he could use death to make up for his failure and mistake.

Even if Sir Taize shot him to death now, he was willing.

However, what Sir Taize shouted from afar almost made him think that he had heard wrongly.

“Adjutant Myron, I order you…” he said sternly, “to surrender to the Goethe people!”
