An hour later, Xiao Chen and others returned to the winery.
From a distance, you can see that the winery has been destroyed, and many places have been turned into ruins.
"king……"
Roald appeared, saw the elf queen, and knelt down on one knee.
"I beg the king to come down, I failed to protect Her Royal Highness and hurt her."
"Father……"
Joan looked at the Elf King, her eyes were red.
During the battle just now, she thought that she would never see her father and...Xiao Chen again.
"Joan..."
The Elf King walked a few steps quickly, carefully sizing up his precious daughter, seeing that her face was pale, obviously seriously injured.
"How are you?"
"Father, I'm fine...Uncle Roald is still kneeling."
Joan shook her head and looked at Roald who was kneeling on the ground.
"Uncle Roald was seriously injured in order to protect me..."
"Ok."
The Elf King nodded, let go of Joan, and patted Roald on the shoulder.
"Get up, it's not your fault... On the contrary, you risked your life to protect Joan, I should thank you."
"My lord, you are serious. It is my duty to protect Her Highness the Princess."
Roald shook his head.
"Speaking of which, my life was also saved by Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the Elf King was very surprised, what's going on?
Although it is said that Joan has returned to his ancestors and his strength has improved a lot, but he can't fight against the giants. How can he save Roald?
"Is such that……"
Roald simply reported.
On the other side, Xiao Chen also came to Hong Yi: "How is it? Where is the injury?"
"It's all right, I've bandaged it."
Hong Yi shook his head.
"Master, what about you?"
"Me? A little injury, it's fine."
As Xiao Chen said, he took out two pills and handed them to Hong Yi.
"Come and eat."
"it is good."
Hong responded and ate the elixir obediently.
Seeing that Hong took the pill, Xiao Chen looked at Qiong.
It's not that he doesn't care about Joan, but that the Elf King is here, and it's not his turn at all.
Just at this time, Joan also looked over.
"Give."
Xiao Chen came to Joan, took out the elixir and handed it over.
What is the injury, where is the injury, such nonsense, he didn't ask any more.
When the Elf King asked just now, he heard it all.
"Well, I thought... never seeing you again."
Joan took it and swallowed it, and looked at Xiao Chen, her eyes were even redder.
There are some things that she can't say to her father, but she can say to Xiao Chen.
"What stupid things are you talking about, why can't you see it?"
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Okay, you are indeed the daughter of my Elf King."
The Elf King next to him suddenly said something and smiled.
Xiao Chen was a little strange, what did Roald tell the Elf King?
"My lord Pope..."
Paul had also seen the Dark Pope, and his face was somewhat ashamed.
"Let's go in and talk."
Arthur was also afraid, but luckily Joan and Hongyi had no accident, otherwise...the matter would be serious.
He couldn't explain to God Amaterasu and the Elf King.
Afterwards, everyone walked inside.
People like Xue Chunqiu and others did not follow, but dispersed to heal their injuries.
In today's battle, almost everyone was injured.
"Sister Rowling, how is your injury?"
Hongyi and Joan came to Rowling and asked with concern.
"fine."
Rowling looked at the two girls, and she could tell that their concern came from the bottom of their hearts.
This warmed her heart, and some small thoughts about hugging before had faded a lot.
Soon, everyone was seated, and Paul reported what happened in the winery.
"It's a pity, let Au Benz and the others go, if there are more giants, they can be kept."
Roald shook his head.
"We met them on the road and they died."
The Elf King said slowly.
"Ok?"
Roald froze for a moment.
"Wang, did you kill them?"
"They dare to hurt my daughter, how can I keep them alive?"
The Elf King nodded.
"It's also their bad luck that they met us."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"By the way, Mr. Roald, it's really rare that you and Mr. Paul can stop them."
"Ok."
Roald nodded.
"Almost, I'm going to die with them..."
Speaking of this, Roald was still a little scared, if the news from the City of Light was half a minute late, he might have died.
"Thanks to Her Royal Highness, they shocked them..."
Paul looked at Joan with some admiration and respect in his words.
This bit of admiration and respect is not because Joan is the princess of the elves.
After all, with his strength, he is infinitely close to a giant, and his status is also very high.
It was what Joan did that made him admire from the bottom of his heart.
In addition, Joan not only saved Roald at that time, but also saved him in disguise.
He has to admit this great favor.
"hehe."
Although the Elf King had heard Roald's story just now, he was still very happy and satisfied to hear Paul, an outsider, say that.
He is more and more satisfied with this future elf king.
His love for Joan is not only because of her returning to the ancestors, but also in various aspects.
Xiao Chen and the others also looked at Joan in unison, all somewhat surprised.
It's hard to imagine that in that kind of crisis, Joan would have such courage and determination!
"Joan, you are brave and wise."
Arthur looked at Joan and praised.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at his son Serro, then at Xiao Chen, and shook his head slightly.
If Joan had nothing to do with Xiao Chen, he wanted to think about his son.
Now...forget it.
"I just did what I had to do."
Joan said modestly.
"If Cerro is here, he will make the same choice as me."
Hearing Joan mentioning himself, Selro was taken aback, then puffed up his chest slightly, no matter what, it was considered a boast of himself.
"Serro? Hehe, he still needs more exercise."
Arthur smiled, feeling more regretful.
If he didn't know that Joan's thoughts were all on Xiao Chen, based on this, he would have to wonder if Joan had a crush on Serro.
"They are all excellent young people."
The Elf King laughed.
"The future era belongs to their era... Arthur, we are getting old."
"yes."
Arthur nodded.
After chatting for a few words, everyone dispersed and went to heal their wounds.
"Where's Oak?"
Xiao Chen asked Hong Yi.
"I had someone carry it to the room."
Hong Yi replied.
"Still awake?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"How hard did you hit?"
"Well, his strength is a bit strong, I forgot that he is an ordinary person."
Hong Yi was a little embarrassed.
"I really admire Hong Yi, who knocked Ouk unconscious simply and neatly."
Joan laughed.
"At that time, I was a little helpless with Oak."
"Hehe, you are all amazing."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Let's go, take me to meet Oak."
"it is good."
Red nodded.
"Rowling, you go to rest first."
Xiao Chen looked at Rowling again.
"Later, I will heal you."
"it is good."
Rowling nodded and licked her red lips.
"I'll wait for you in the room."
"..."
Xiao Chen looked at Luo Lin's movements, and couldn't help touching his wrist... This girl, wouldn't she want to suck his blood again?
A few minutes later, Xiao Chen saw the unconscious Oak in the room.
"Mr. Roald said that he knew our identities... At that time, he probably wanted to escape."
Hong Yi looked at Oak and said to Xiao Chen.
"Well, I thought of that too."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"No matter what, he has the courage to come back, which is rare..."
"Yeah, thanks to him coming back to remind us, otherwise we might not be able to make it to the end."
Joan also said.
"Speaking of which, he has been a life-saving grace to us."
"I saved his daughter, and he saved you... It's a secret, it's God's will."
Xiao Chen was also somewhat moved.
"At that time, I just had some sympathy and helped him with a little effort. Unexpectedly, this kind deed was rewarded with kindness."
"Ok."
Both Hongyi and Joan nodded.
Xiao Chen stepped forward, pointed like a sword, and poked Oak a few times.
Soon, Oak opened his eyes.
He was a little dazed, with a sense of 'who am I, where am I, and what am I doing'.
He remembered that he was in the wine cellar, and then... was knocked out by that woman?
"you're awake."
Xiao Chen looked at the bewildered Oak, and smiled.
"Su...Master Su?"
Hearing the sound, Oak's eyes fell on Xiao Chen's body, and his eyes widened suddenly.
Thinking of something, he sat up in shock.
"Hehe, don't you know my real identity? My name is Xiao Chen."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Sorry, I couldn't tell you my real identity because of some things before."
"No, nothing."
Oak shook his head quickly, and then thought of something, his face changed.
"People from the Holy See..."
"They have retreated."
Hong Yi said.
"Retreat...retreat?"
Oak looked at Hong Yi, suddenly thought of something, and touched his aching neck.
"you you……"
"Sorry for knocking you out."
When Hong saw Oak pointing at herself, she was a little embarrassed.
"I apologize to you."
"No...no need."
Oak shook his head, looked at Xiao Chen, Hong Yi and Joan in front of him, and took a few breaths.
"The people of the Holy See of Light have really retreated?"
"Well, they not only retreated, but also died."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"What? Dead... dead?"
Oak, who had just calmed down, suddenly widened his eyes again.
"right."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It's safe here now."
"Oh...you...you..."
Oak looked at Xiao Chen and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Since when did you know that I am not from the Holy See?"
Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Ah? I...Master Xiao, I didn't mean to know..."
Oak's expression changed, and he hurriedly said.
"Well, I know, it's okay, I'm not angry, and I won't do anything to you, I'm just curious."
Xiao Chen comforted him.
"Yes...it was last night."
Seeing what Xiao Chen said, Oak was not so scared anymore.
"I accidentally heard it from the people in the winery."
"They said my identity?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"No, no, they said..."
Ouke couldn't help swallowing when he thought of that sentence. Obviously, in his opinion, these words were outrageous.
"They say...the God of Light is a dog. A mother's son."
