"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"The human world is very dangerous. If you leave alone, you will probably be caught. This place is too far from the Elf Forest."

"Tika, if you believe me, please tell me what difficulties you are encountering, and I can really help you!"

Zhou Ming said to her back.

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, this back figure was dyed with a circle of glow.

Zhou Ming really didn't want Angelique Tika to leave. As for why he didn't want her to leave, there were many reasons.

One, he didn't dig much information about the elves, he just learned the elven language quite proficiently.

Second, he is more worried about the safety of Angelique Tika. This place is a million miles away from the Elf Forest and passes through hundreds of human countries along the way. If she is accidentally exposed, her situation will be very difficult.

Even though she has strong martial arts skills and good cultivation, if she meets a real strong human being, she still won't be able to impress him.

In the eyes of humans, every elf is a moving wealth.

Even an elf whose face is completely covered with "black spots" is worth tens of thousands of gold coins.

After all, elves are very rare in the human world.

During this period, Zhou Ming had been with her for nearly two months, and a little friendship was still cultivated... Although this elf's temper was not very good, Zhou Ming still felt that she was a nice person and worth getting to know.

The most important thing is that if she leaves, there will definitely be a big hole in the defense of the Medicine Bottle Castle.

If he was not in the castle, relying solely on Gazef, who had broken his right arm, and four swordsman apprentices, the safety of the people and property in the castle would be at a low defense level.

If Angelique Tikka is not here, he is equivalent to losing one of his right-hand men.

Therefore, Zhou Ming needs her.

…

Angelique Tikka stood there without speaking.

After a long time, he turned around and said:

"Thank you for your kindness. I will handle my matters myself. You can't help me."

"If you don't tell me what it is, how do you know I can't help?"

Zhou Ming said: "Tika, if the difficulties you encounter are very difficult to solve, you need more help from humans. This is not an elf forest, this is the human world. If there are no humans to help you, you will only be deaf." Like a blind man, no matter how many mistakes he makes, he can't solve the problem."

He pointed at himself: "I am a human, I can speak Elvish, and I have a lot of information channels that you don't have. With my help, you will get a lot of convenience."

"But you still don't believe in me, or any human being. Hatred has obscured your eyes, and your indiscriminate wariness of human beings will only make it difficult for you to move forward."

Zhou Ming shook his head.

Elves are perfect, but their personalities are often more emotional than rational, more stubborn than flexible... This may be because they are too perfect, and it is also the root cause of the weakness of elves.

"I……"

Angelique Tika opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

Zhou Ming walked towards her, looked into her eyes, and said warmly: "Tika, you are my friend, and I also hope that you will treat me as a friend. If you have any difficulties, please tell me, I can really help you." .”

Feeling the man's sincere gaze, she moved her lips, shook her head and said, "You really can't help me with my matter."

"Then please tell me first, what is it?"

Zhou Ming said.

"This this……"

Angelique Tika hesitated for a while, and finally, under Zhou Ming's constant questioning, she slowly told the whole story.

The little elf princess.

Dolan Empire.

fell into the hands of a certain noble of this empire.

It's been over a year.

The fate is uncertain.

It was all the result of Angelique Tika's poor protection.

Zhou Ming found a piece of clean grass, sat down, and asked her to sit down too.

After hearing what she had to say, he asked a few questions.

"How old is the little princess? Is she an adult?"

"16 years old, not yet an adult."

"16 years old?"

Zhou Ming looked worried: "That's really dangerous. Girls of this age are particularly popular with nobles. I'm afraid your little princess..." I'm afraid she was ruined by some big shot.

"No, elves have a long lifespan and grow slowly. They are generally considered adults at the age of 30. The little princess is only 16 years old, and her development is only equivalent to that of an 8-year-old human girl."

Tika explained.

The equivalent of an 8-year-old human girl?

Zhou Ming shook his head suddenly, that was even more dangerous. Nowadays, some dignitaries have more and more serious tastes, and the lower limit is getting lower and lower. For an 8-year-old girl, their eyes are gleaming for such a young seedling!

In short, Zhou Ming holds a pessimistic view on whether the little elf princess can still retain her virginity.

But the life of the little princess should not be seriously affected.

"The Dolan Empire is about 100,000 miles away from the Kingdom of Yadud. It is a well-known powerful country in the human world. Its territory is 20 times that of the Kingdom of Yadud, and its national strength is 30 times that of the Kingdom of Yadud. It has as many as one million elite knights. There are even more powerful people in the country, with several sword masters and great magicians sitting in charge."

"It's difficult to stir up trouble in a country like this."

Zhou Ming shook his head. There was an introduction to the Dolan Empire in the geography books in the school library. Knowing the power of this empire, Zhou Ming firmly rejected Tika's personal strategy of "entering the high city and rescuing people by force". manner.

With her strength, it would be difficult for her to deal with several strong swordsmen. It was impossible to rescue the little princess under the siege of many masters.

Even if they were lucky enough to succeed, it would be difficult for them to escape in the human world as members of the elves. Once they were accidentally exposed, the consequences would be disastrous.

But even so, in order to make up for his mistakes, Tika still wanted to save the little princess alone... no matter how dangerous it was.

Zhou Ming grabbed her and said to her:

"Don't worry. I'll go to the slave merchant Ward first and ask him about the situation of the last slave chamber. Since you said you were resold once, the last slave chamber bought you and the little princess. Chamber of Commerce, that’s very easy to handle, I’ll send someone over to ask Ward for help and ask who the buyer of the little princess is.”

"Ward?"

Anger and disgust flashed in Tika's eyes: "If you hadn't stopped me, I would have killed him!"

"But if you want to know the whereabouts of the little princess, you can only ask him for help. Moreover, Ward's 'goods' have been sold out. He will go to the Dolan Empire in two days. We can send someone to go with him."

"I'll go!" Tika said.

"No, no, you don't have to go. Your identity is inconvenient. Let's ask Fitz to go. That guy is smarter and can read well. We can contact him through letters then."

Fitz was one of Gazef's four subordinates. He used to be a son of a noble, but his family later deposed him due to crimes. He had studied for several years, and his martial arts skills were average, but he was clever and was highly regarded by Zhou Ming.

"Then what should I do?"

Tika said, what should she do?

"Wait, wait patiently, take the griffon of the 'Continental Chamber of Commerce' from the Yadud Kingdom to the Dolan Kingdom. It will take one month, three months at most, and there will be news from there. Just wait patiently. Three months later, after confirming the little princess’s condition, we will take the next step.”

"But--"

Tikka looked anxious. Do we have to wait another three months?

How could she wait?

"You can't do anything if you go, Tika. You are an elf. Once you expose yourself, it will be difficult to save yourself. I have a more reliable way to rescue your little princess."

"And, not long after, I will also go to the Dolan Empire. Then you come with me, and we will rescue the little princess together."

In the imperial capital of the Dolan Empire, there is a famous higher magic school called "Gray Magic School". There are more than a thousand students in this school. This school's research in the field of magic is much more advanced than the Brno School of Magic.

At the end of this year or early next year, Zhou Ming plans to study at this school for a period of time as an "exchange student."

The old fox has an "exchange student" quota (one per year). If Zhou Ming goes to talk to him, he should be able to get the recommendation letter.

Tika was a little reluctant. It could take three months, half a year, or one year. How could she wait?

How much more torture will the little princess have to endure during this long period of time?

Zhou Ming persuaded her for a long time, and after analyzing the pros and cons of various aspects, Tika reluctantly agreed: wait for three months for news.

After three months, take the next step.
