Me and my fantasy world

Chapter 59: Legends of the Elves (Chapter 4: Greed)

A few nights later, a semicircular crescent moon hung high in the sky, illuminating the ground in a cool, icy blue.

On the city wall of Nord Town, two guards who were on night watch were yawning and leaning against the wall drowsily, not noticing the people in black cloaks under the wall.

Judging from her figure, she is a woman. Although her long golden hair is hidden in a hat, it is still very eye-catching. Her emerald green eyes look vigilantly at the guards on the city wall, trying to calm herself down.

Standing against the wall of the city, he took out a longbow from under his cloak. There was nothing special about the longbow as a whole, and it looked like it was made of ordinary branches.

The woman held up the longbow high, and a ball of emerald green magic slowly condensed at her fingertips, turning into a long arrow. She placed it on the longbow in her hand, pulled the bowstring to its full extent, and quietly let go.

The emerald green arrow shot straight into the sky like a thin emerald green snake, and also alarmed the two guards who were dozing on the city wall.

"Huh? What?"

"You must be dazzled."

"No, I did see something flash by just now, didn't you see it?"

"No... I'm so sleepy, I'll sleep for a while..."

"Is it……"

The guard scratched his head in doubt, but the long arrow that flew into the air split into two at this moment, piercing the two guards respectively. The two guards groaned, fainted and fell to the ground.

The woman stuck to the city wall, listening to the sound of the wall. After hearing the sound of two people falling to the ground, she immediately realized that the time had come.

His legs slowly gathered magic power, wrapping the woman's two snow-white long legs, turning them into emerald green. He pushed hard and jumped onto the five-meter-high wall. Then he continued to gather magic power and jumped upwards. After only four or five jumps, he reached the top of the city wall.

He lowered his head and touched the necks of the two guards. They were still breathing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not bad, it seems the hypnosis was successful." The woman said, and immediately turned back to look at the Nord Town that was illuminated by the moonlight in an icy blue color, "Here, there should be..."

……

A horse-drawn carriage was shuttling through the alley, with an oil lamp hanging on it and a hunchbacked old man sitting in it. The carriage was carrying some cargo, which was covered with a large piece of cloth. It was difficult to see what was inside, but from the sharp corners of the cloth, one could tell that it seemed to be a box.

After walking through the alley, they arrived in front of a house. The old man got out of the car and knocked gently on the wooden door. Immediately, a strong man's voice came from inside the door: "It's closed. Please go back."

When the old man heard this, he immediately put his right hand to his mouth and whispered, "The goods have arrived."

After the old man finished speaking, he heard the sound of broken utensils in the house, mixed with the sound of a wooden table moving and hurried footsteps. Finally, he arrived at the door and opened the wooden door. A man came towards him. His clothes were a little messy, and there were a few kiss marks on his neck. He looked at the old man anxiously.

After seeing this, the old man just smiled knowingly. The man asked softly but anxiously, "Really? What kind of goods?"

"Good stuff, brought from other provinces." The old man said, glancing at the carriage behind him. After seeing the carriage full of goods, the man ran out the door excitedly.

"Okay, great, hurry up, help move it in." The man urged, lifting the cloth covering the carriage. Hidden under the cloth were huge wooden boxes, each of which exuded a unique fragrance that made people linger.

“But, this price…” the old man said, quietly extending his hand.

"Okay, okay. Come on, thank you for your hard work." The man said, and although his clothes were in disarray, he took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and handed them to the old man.

"Hahaha, okay, okay, then I'll help you move it now." The old man said, and began to unload the goods from the carriage. Although he was hunched over, the old man seemed very strong. He lifted the wooden box without even breathing, and unloaded the goods from the carriage into the man's room.

A thick dark cloud quietly obscured the moonlight, leaving the alleyway illuminated only by faint candlelight, while on the eaves, a woman in black rushed past, jumping back and forth on the rooftops, searching within the town.

Suddenly, the tip of the woman's nose twitched slightly, as if she smelled something. She immediately stopped, sniffed around again, identified the direction, and turned to her left with certainty: "This way, I found it!" After the woman said that, she immediately ran forward and rushed towards her destination.

After a long time, the old man had unloaded all the goods on the car. He put down the last piece of goods in his hand, clapped his hands, put his hands on his waist and pushed inward. A "click" sound slowly came from the old man's waist, but it did not make the old man feel uncomfortable. Instead, he felt a little enjoyable.

"We've finished moving, please check the goods." The old man said, motioning for the man to check the goods.

The man held up a candle, pointed to the wooden boxes in the room, and nodded: "The quantity is no problem, thank you for your hard work."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll go first." The old man walked out the door and got on the carriage.

"Okay, take care." The man walked out of the house and said politely as usual.

The old man nodded and quietly whipped the horse forward.

"Hey, I'll be busy tomorrow morning..." said the man, raising his hands again, stretching and patting his neck.

Just when he was relaxing, a dark shadow fell from the sky and hit the man, knocking him unconscious and causing him to fall to the ground.

The black shadow was the woman in black who was searching on the roof. After knocking the man unconscious, the woman in black raised her head and sniffed inside the door, then nodded affirmatively: "This is it..."

The woman said this, rushed into the room without hesitation, and opened a wooden box.

……

"There are so many rats. I didn't expect that they would come back again in just two days..."

A man wearing silver-white armor stood on the roof, holding a sword in his hand, and looked over the quiet town. In the seemingly calm town, there seemed to be an undercurrent, which made people feel a little uneasy.

"Hey, you're here to steal food again, I didn't expect that..." The man said, looking at a family with interest, "Tonight, I must catch you, the elf..."

"It's so delicious!" In the alley, a woman in black sat on the floor of a house. A wooden box on one side was filled with apples, which were being put into her mouth one by one. She seemed to have not eaten for a long time. She gobbled the apple ravenously. She could finish an apple as big as a fist in five bites, and she didn't even leave out the apple core.

"Are there any other side dishes?" said the woman in black, chewing an apple in her hand as she opened a wooden box. Inside was a whole box of bananas. The excited woman exclaimed again in surprise, "Oh! Bananas! My favorite!" The woman picked up a banana with one hand and carefully appreciated every detail.

"Take more, otherwise you won't have enough to eat." The woman said, throwing away the apple in her hand, and instead put one or two bananas into her arms and stuffed them into her clothes, filling up the delicate clothes like a woman who was six months pregnant.

"Little wild cat, you are here again..."

A voice was like lightning, quickly arousing the woman's nerves. With anger in her eyes, she didn't care about the fruit in her hand and hurried out of the house.

But just as she ran out of the door, a sudden attack hit the black-clothed woman's feet, creating a layer of dust and smoke. The woman in black was also knocked several meters away and hit the wall of the house across the alley.

This also shook off the hat that covered the woman's face. Her long golden hair gradually turned an ice-blue color under the shining of the waxing moon. Her snow-white face was so delicate that there was no flaw, but her cheekbones were deeply embedded, as if she was malnourished.

A pair of emerald green eyes stared fiercely at the eaves, and a pair of pointed ears were exposed. The shape of the ears was very strange, like an elf, stretching outward into a triangle.

A gust of wind blew away all the smoke and dust that was lingering in the air. A man appeared in the sight of the woman in black, holding a long sword in his hand and looking at the woman in black.

"Little wild cat, are you here tonight too?" the man asked with an interested smile.

"Luo Xian, are you done yet?" The woman cursed at the man angrily.

"That depends on you. When I catch you, I will stop bothering you." The man said with interest, grabbing the sword and pointing it at the woman.

"Want to catch me? Forget it!" the woman said, and took out a longbow from behind her back with her left hand. The fingertips of her right hand hooked on the bowstring, slightly bending it, and a ball of bright green light slowly condensed on the longbow.

"Want to do the same as before? That's wishful thinking!" The man shouted and slashed at the woman with his sword.

The woman did not panic, but continued to wait to condense the energy in her hand. After a few seconds, a long green arrow appeared on the girl's bow. The girl released her fingers without hesitation, and the emerald green arrow quickly flew towards the man's forehead.

The man rushed towards the woman with a sword in hand. He did not dodge or avoid the oncoming arrow. He chopped it down with force, breaking the emerald green arrow, which turned into a bright green light and flew away.

"What..." The woman was also startled, but seeing the man and the sword so close to her, she didn't even have time to speak. She hurriedly rolled to the side to avoid it and quickly fled into the alley.

"Want to escape? Don't even think about it!" the man said, and quickly took out a rope from behind his waist with two golden gems hanging on the rope, and threw it in the direction the woman was running.

The woman saw that both ends of the rope slipped out of her hands at the same time. She knew that even if she was tied up, she would not be able to pull herself back. Besides, the rope itself was so light, how could it be thrown far? Therefore, the woman did not care and continued to run straight forward.

But who would have thought that with the addition of the golden gems at both ends, the rope would gain a lot of weight, and it would quickly catch up with the fleeing woman and trap one of her long legs. While the woman was still surprised, the ropes actually entangled and rotated, wrapping around her body.

When the rope ran out, the golden gems on both ends attracted each other and stuck together like a magnet, binding the woman's body and throwing her to the ground.

"What, what is this!" The woman wanted to break free, but her body was tied up with ropes and she had no strength at all.

"I didn't expect that the toys from that village would actually come in handy." The man said, and walked towards the woman unhurriedly and swaggeringly, provoking her, and kicked her hard in the abdomen, "Run! Run!"

"Ah!" The woman couldn't help but scream out as she was kicked, spitting out a mouthful of saliva, "You... Damn it! What the hell is this thing!"

"Don't struggle. I'll take you back!" the man said, carrying the woman on his back. "Come to think of it, how much can an elf sell for? Hahaha!"

"Don't think about it!"

As the woman spoke, her whole body radiated an emerald green light. She felt an unknown force coming from her abdomen, swung her legs forward, and kicked the man's buttocks hard with the toes of her feet. The man groaned in pain and quickly covered his body with his hands.

The woman took advantage of the man's laxity and quickly did a backflip, landing lightly on the ground. She then pushed hard with both hands, breaking the ropes that bound her. Then her body floated high into the air, looking at the embarrassed man on the ground with murderous eyes.

Emerald green light slowly gathered from the woman's body onto her left hand. She slowly stretched out her left hand, and the green light gradually flowed to the palm of her left hand. Then, it spread outward from the palm of her left hand. The shape was like a spear, more than two meters long. The specific appearance could not be seen clearly, only countless emerald green magic shadows lingered around the thing.
