The Witcher: Son of the Planes

Chapter 222 Backstabs from Human Nations

In the first war in the Vast Wasteland, the elves, Listan and the human countries were divided into 100 war zones, while the second decisive battle outside Steel Mane City did not have a clear division, but after the victory, the focus of attack had been adjusted.

Although there are still some remnants of the Orc Empire concentrated in their imperial capital, the high-level combat forces and adult orcs in major cities have been wiped out, some dead and some captured, so whether it is the elves, Listan or the human countries, they all understand that it is time to divide the benefits next, but they have not yet broken through the Orc Imperial Capital, so they have not yet divided the benefits.

Several major cities in the Orc Empire were attacked by the coalition forces of the elves, Listan and human countries. The main force of the coalition forces headed northward towards the imperial capital of the Orc Empire. Of course, some people stayed and stayed in the border city of Steel Mane City as a temporary transit station.

Colin was no longer interested in the subsequent war. In his opinion, the Orc Empire could no longer organize any decent resistance. Although the coalition was still heading towards the Orc Imperial Capital, the final victory was already in hand, so Colin did not continue to follow.

After getting permission, Colin prepared to return to Ethel's base, where he planned to do experiments and study spells, waiting for Listan to complete the final harvest of benefits before returning to the wizard world.

Colin did not return alone. There were two orc slaves with him, Jenny and Barrick. However, due to the relationship of having contact for a period of time, Colin did not completely treat the two siblings as slaves.

Colin's speed of return was not fast, but not slow either. He could still find some means of transportation at the Steel Mane City Transfer Station.

Colin and Jenny walked through the vast wasteland, talking from time to time. There were many topics to talk about, but more of them were related to Jenny and her brother.

For example, the next way out for the two siblings. After Jenny and her brother understood the fate of the Orc Empire, they quickly accepted the advice of their elder brother Colin and followed him to live in his world. Although their status may be relatively low, they are more relieved to have a relationship with their elder brother Colin.

During the conversation, Colin and his three brothers will soon leave the vast wilderness.

At this moment, the human coalition army has marched to the depths of the Essel Forest. The first messenger to contact the Sky Knight Harroch, who stayed behind at Listan’s base, was Harroch. After figuring out the intentions of the human kingdoms, he considered again and again and indulged their behavior. He was ready to watch from the sidelines.

In Siyue City, the remaining elders Charlotte and Mithal have received the latest intelligence. A powerful human army has entered the Essel Forest and is heading towards Siyue City. She doesn’t know what their intentions are, but she thinks it’s not a good thing.

She and Elder Mithal were not stupid, but with their wisdom they still could not analyze the specific intentions of the human army. However, they still issued an order to strengthen the alert and sent out envoys to question the human army's unprovoked entry into the Ethel Forest.

The leaders of the human coalition were the princes of the three empires. The Os Empire was led by the eldest prince Aolige, the Milan Empire was led by the third prince Rodman, and the Bourbon Empire was led by the second prince Bruce. It should be said that these three have obtained the support of the greatest forces in the countries except His Majesty the Emperor.

Their purpose this time was also very clear, that is, to "invite" the elf princess Charlotte to visit the human capital and finally choose a marriage between the three of them.

Of course, this "invite" was semi-mandatory, as long as one of them was chosen, as for who it was, it depended on the means of the three.

The Milan Empire and the Bourbon Empire had planned it long ago, and the Os Empire had to do it, but no matter what, the result now was that the three families had sent troops and invaded the territory of the Elf Kingdom.

The messenger from Siyue City soon arrived at the camp of the human coalition, but the three princes did not give the reason for coming to Essel Forest this time, nor did they make things too difficult for the messenger. They just entertained him well. After getting no results, the messenger was ready to leave, but the three princes forced the messenger to stay.

Charlotte and Mithal, who were waiting for the messenger to return in Siyue City, did not get any news for a long time. They felt that the human coalition was full of malice.

When a large number of elites followed their mother to conquer the Orc Empire, the human coalition came without any reason. Charlotte and Mithal naturally believed that the comers were not kind, and then issued an order to prepare for battle.

The next day, the human coalition had arrived outside Siyue City, and the three princes sent people to shout, asking the elf princess Charlotte to show up.

Charlotte and Mithal had already stood on the city wall. When the other side shouted, they heard it. Charlotte wanted to confront him face to face, but the cautious elder Mithal stopped her, especially when the messenger did not return normally, the princess could not be allowed to take risks.

The gates of Siyue City were tightly closed, and the elven archers on the city wall had already drawn their bowstrings, ready to shoot the fatal arrow at any time.

The three princes saw that their shouting had no effect, so they didn't say much. They just asked their men to shout "rescue the imprisoned elven princess" and then launched the attack.

"Shameless!" Charlotte slammed the city wall hard. She knew that the human coalition must have some unspeakable secrets, but at this moment she could only fight back.

Although Mithal is only a second-level professional, he has lived long enough. Although the elite in the city were withdrawn by the queen, the elves are born sharpshooters and are not afraid of those human soldiers.

This is the first direct battle between humans and elves in the Agri plane for hundreds of years. In the past, they were all allies facing the orc coalition at the same time. This time, after tearing off the fig leaf of interests, their fight immediately entered a white-hot stage.

Although the elf warriors are very brave, they are helpless because their numbers are too small, especially after the powerful combat units such as the ancient war tree were withdrawn, the defense of Siyue City was not good enough, and the elves quickly retreated to the vicinity of the Tree of Life.

The goal of the human coalition this time is Princess Charlotte. They have not thought about completely breaking up with the elves, but after occupying several moon wells, they still took the opportunity to install a lot of life springs.

The remaining elves in Siyue City resisted vigorously, guarding the last holy place, where the Tree of Life is located.

Before the human coalition attacked the Tree of Life, it also stopped its attack. The three princes sent people to call again, "invite" Princess Charlotte to visit the human city. If they still can't invite her, they will not guarantee the safety of the Tree of Life and the remaining elves.

Elder Mithal was strongly opposed. Even if the elves fought to the last drop of blood, there was no reason to send the princess away. The remaining elves were willing to fight for their princess.

But Charlotte is an elf princess after all. She has no shortage of various resources at ordinary times. When she is really needed, she must stand up. She went against all odds and walked towards the human coalition alone.

After the human coalition effectively "controlled" Charlotte, it released the messenger and some captured elves, and withdrew from Siyue City in an orderly manner until leaving Ethel Forest.
