Chapter 520: Dunas Army (1/2)
Not long after Leon and Aria flew towards the thunderclouds in the high skies and disappeared within, the downpour of rain occurred quickly ahead of time.
It was like the heavens did not want the elves to survive.
”Quickly, everyone! Hurry! The rain has begun!” Elven warriors urged with waving gestures while over elven warriors pulled their carts and carriages with a quickened pace.
The Fire Awakeners quickly received orders to create a passage for the elves before Silver brought the first batch of elves to the foot of the Great Wall.
The ropes and lifts were shortly lowered for the elves to climb and transport their goods to the top.
Nevertheless, the Great Wall was never equipped to take in so many people at once. As such, a large crowd was quickly gathered at the foot of the Great Wall.
”This is troublesome. Our equipment can only bring in a few hundred at a time. At this rate, it will take several hours before we finish bringing in the whole elven tribe.” General Marquis Hendrick muttered.
At the same time, Supreme Elder Haldir realized the situation and made his way over.
”Marquis Haldir.”
”General Marquis Hendrick.”
The two greeted each other before General Marquis Hendrick mentioned, ”About this situation with the elves…”
”No need to concern yourself with this matter, General Marquis Hendrick. I will solve this issue,” Supreme Elder Haldir stated before he studied the rope lifts used to transfer the tribesmen and goods to the top.
After he understood the rope lifts' simple mechanism, he found empty spots along the Great Wall to construct his only rope lifts—ones that are wholly made of vines.
Once the first construct was completed, the thorny vines began rotating in gear and lowered the platform to the ground before a group of tribesmen was shortly brought up.
”Haiz, Wood Awakeners sure are versatile in their abilities.” General Marquis Hendrick sighed with emotion.
They can heal people, accelerate the growth of crops and herbs, and construct many things with their magical mutant vines.
Compared to Wood Awakeners, it did not seem like there were not many things Wind Awakeners could do with their wing ability except use it for combat.
Nevertheless, General Marquis Hendrick would still choose his wind ability despite his envy for Wood Awakeners.
An ability equipped for combat suited him just fine. Perhaps, there were many ways to wield the wind. It was just that he had not thought of them yet.
”There are also many things that Wood Awakeners cannot do,” Supreme Elder Haldir responded casually before shifting his attention to the batch of tribesmen brought up by his vine lift.
”Supreme Elder.”
The group greeted respectfully.
Among the group of tribesmen brought up, there were a few high-level elven warriors within their midst.
Supreme Elder Haldir nodded.
”The warriors will stay.” He said before assigning a single elven warrior to lead the rest of the tribesmen, ”The rest of you will follow this person. He will lead you down the Great Wall to our designated gathering area.”
”Yes, Supreme Elder!”
”You will take charge of this vine lift. The rest of you, follow me.” Supreme Elder Haldir began instructing the warriors shortly after the group of tribesmen left.
”Understood, Supreme Elder. Just leave it to me.”
