I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 433: The same sky, the same dream

"Among us dark elves, there are only assassins who die in battle, and there is no shadow who surrenders! Brothers, follow me and kill." Baalis's roar resounded through the sky. He waved the sharp blade in his hand and commanded all the dark elves to rush towards the enemy like a tide.

However, at this critical moment, something unexpected happened. Watching his men continue to attack, Baris jumped out of the window without hesitation. This sudden scene made everyone dumbfounded, and they couldn't help but feel that the attack was a failure.

The dark elves watched their leader escape from the battlefield in such a bizarre way, and suddenly fell into confusion and helplessness. Their original firm belief began to waver, and they didn't know what to do.

In this chaotic moment, Alpha showed his calmness and decisiveness. He quickly ordered Malthus to take these abandoned dark elves into custody to ensure the stability of the situation. Malthus immediately took action and led the soldiers to surround and control the dark elves.

The detained dark elves looked gloomy, with deep disappointment and confusion in their eyes. They were puzzled by Baalis's behavior and felt confused and uneasy about their future.

However, Alpha, with tolerance and understanding, decided to give these dark elves a chance to re-select their camp. He knew that everyone could make mistakes, and the opportunity to change could open up new paths for them.

At this critical moment, the dark elves are faced with a difficult choice. They need to think about whether to continue to work for the Dark Evil Alliance or to fight for the Light Freedom Alliance. This choice not only concerns their personal destiny, but also affects the balance of the entire underground world.

Surprisingly, most of the dark elves chose to change sides. In the face of life and death, they put aside their dignity and position and chose the right to survive. After all, for most people, following the victor seems to be an instinctive choice.

This decision was not easy, because changing camps meant giving up everything in the past and saying goodbye to the past. But the dark elves realized that only through change can they have a better future.

This choice also shows the complexity and variability of human nature. In difficult situations, people often make unexpected decisions, and these decisions may change the direction of the entire situation. Alpha saw this, and he believed that these once lost dark elves had a chance to walk the right path and fight for justice.

As the dark elves changed their camp, the Light and Freedom Alliance gained new strength. Their joining will bring different skills and wisdom to the alliance, enhancing its strength to fight against the dark evil alliance.

At the same time, this also conveys an important message to other dark elves who are in confusion: change is possible, even those who have made mistakes have the opportunity to choose a new path. Hope and redemption always exist, as long as people are willing to work hard for it.

Alpha certainly would not easily believe that these people had really joined the Free Alliance. In his opinion, they only chose to stand on the side of the Free Alliance temporarily in order to save their own lives. Once the Free Alliance failed or fell into crisis, these people would likely change their positions at a critical moment.

Alpha did not need their loyalty, he just needed an example, an example that could attract more dark elves to join the Free Alliance, so that his goal could be achieved smoothly.

……

"Elder Kailide, something bad has happened! The clan leader and the others are back!" Suddenly, Baalis ran over with a panicked look on his face.

Kailide's heart tightened, and he shouted loudly: "What happened? The patriarch is back? Explain it to me clearly!"

Captain Baalis had not had time to change his clothes, and the blood on his face was still clearly visible, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death fight.

Baris replied breathlessly, "When I was besieging the enemy, we were about to wipe out those humans. However, the tribe leader's wife, Clave, and Mai came with a large number of dark elves, and they also took Mashu away. I saw that the situation was not good, so I rushed out immediately."

Elder Kailide's face suddenly turned gloomy. He knew very well that the return of the patriarch would probably bring great changes to their plan. He turned his head and stared at Balisi, with a hint of obvious anxiety in his eyes.

"Take me to see Hermann's body. I need to confirm it myself." Kailide decided to check the patriarch's body himself. The uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger.

"Ah! Elder, didn't you say before that we should completely dispose of the chief's body? I have already destroyed his body according to your instructions." Baris looked at Kailid in surprise. He didn't expect that the elder would still want to check the body. He quickly explained, trying to cover up his mistake.

"Where is Mad's body?" Knowing that he could not directly verify the identity of the patriarch, Kailide could only shift his attention to the patriarch's son.

"I'll bring Mad's body here right now." Baris ran away in panic.

"No, you take me there." Kailide couldn't wait any longer, he needed to verify it himself immediately.

In the morgue, Kailide looked solemn. He carefully examined Mad's body, not missing any details. After repeated confirmation, his restless mood was slightly calmed down. After all, as the saying goes, even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. Mad is the child of the patriarch, and the patriarch is unlikely to be so cruel to his own flesh and blood.

Kailide took a deep breath, knowing that he had to take decisive action now. With a firm look in his eyes, he immediately turned around and said to the people around him: "Notify everyone immediately. I will call an emergency mobilization meeting. We must rush out of the ground and see the light of day again!" There was a kind of determination in his voice, as if he was announcing to everyone that this was their only way out.

After receiving the notice, the dark elves gathered together. Kailid stood in the middle of the crowd, looking at everyone, and then said in an excited voice: "We can't sit and wait for death! We have to rush out of the ground and find a new living space!" His words were full of encouragement and determination.

However, some dark elves expressed concerns about this decision. They were afraid that the world above ground would be more dangerous and were unwilling to leave their familiar underground world. Kaylid understood their fears, but he firmly believed that only by bravely facing the unknown could they have a chance to gain freedom and a new life.

"We have lived underground for too long, and our world has become smaller and smaller. If we don't try, we will never know what the world outside is like. We can't let fear hold us back!" Carlid continued.

Under the strong desire of the dark elves to return to the ground and to be recognized by everyone, Elder Kaylid's persuasion was supported by most of them. Although they were in darkness, their hearts were still full of light.

"Elder Kailid, I heard that you signed an alliance with the vampires and werewolves in the evil camp in order to make us return to the ground as the evil camp. Is this true?" Suddenly, a dark elf walked out of the crowd. His voice was as loud as a bell, and the tens of thousands of dark elves in the square could hear it clearly.

"Although we dark elves live in darkness, we are the purest race in the world. As long as we turn our hearts toward the light, we can feel the embrace of the light even if we are in hell." Elder Kailide avoided the key question and did not directly respond to the dark elf's question.

At the same time, Kailid secretly signaled Balisi to blend into the crowd. They planned to arrest anyone who raised questions.

"But, I heard that humans, orcs, and elves have signed an alliance. Why can't we go into the ground with them?" From another direction, another dark elf stood up and refuted.

"That's all false news. How could humans, elves, and orcs form an alliance? This must be fake news spread intentionally." Elder Kailid raised his voice, trying to drown out the noise at the scene.

"Elder Kaili, what if what they said is true? The human world today has undergone tremendous changes. Human beings are tolerant of everything. We should join the Free Alliance." Unexpectedly, Mai walked up to the podium in the crowd and stood face to face with Elder Kaili.

"Catch him, he's a traitor!" Elder Kailide ordered immediately.

"Wait! Before the truth comes out, it's still unclear who the traitor is!" Just as everyone was making a fuss, someone suddenly stood up from the crowd.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the leader was actually the elf elder Balas, and next to him stood the elf chief's wife, Claf, and behind them followed closely a group of dark elf leaders.

At this moment, everyone seemed to be waiting for Kaili to gather everyone together, because only in this way could Kaili's crimes be made public, thus completely exposing and crushing his conspiracy.

"Now, let us invite Mr. Alpha, the human representative of the Free Alliance, to speak to everyone." The elf elder Baras acted decisively and, against all odds, pushed aside the guards arranged by Kailid.

"Hello, friends of the dark elves! I am well aware of the hardships and grievances you have experienced over the years." Alpha originally did not want to get involved in the internal disputes of the dark elves, but now he knew that he could no longer stay out of it.

"Friends of the dark elves, perhaps you don't know me. My name is Alpha Michel, and I am a human. Once upon a time, I suffered unfair treatment just like you. Just because of my humble origin, they regarded me as an evil person, spoke ill of me, and even beat me up.

I have never done anything bad. I have helped others and saved lives regardless of my own safety, but even so, I was still expelled by them. So, I can deeply understand your grievances." Alpha deliberately made up a life story similar to that of the dark elves, hoping to resonate with everyone and avoid the dark elves' rejection of him.

"It is precisely because I understand your feelings that I vowed to establish an area without discrimination where everyone can live freely. In this place, whether it is humans, elves, dwarves, or orcs, as long as they yearn for freedom and advocate light, they can live in harmony under the same sky." Alpha continued his speech.

"Some people may say that this is impossible. How can humans, orcs, and elves live together under the same sky? But I want to tell you that nothing is impossible! As long as we work together and strive for the same dream, even if we cannot achieve it in this lifetime, I firmly believe that we will succeed in the future.

I know that it is difficult to achieve this goal. The humans on the ground want to attack and seize my territory and try to overthrow my free alliance. I don't know how long I can hold on, but I have no regrets. Because I understand that I can't leave this matter to my children to solve because of the difficulty. I want to leave them a peaceful and free world, not a world full of discrimination and evil.

Alpha stood on a high place, overlooking the dark elves below who were listening attentively. He knew that his words had already made an impact, so he decided to press on and pursue the victory.

"Lord Alpha, are you really planning to establish such a country on the ground?" Doubtful voices and hesitant emotions were intertwined. Although they had aspirations in their hearts, they still found it difficult to fully believe it.

“Everything I say is true. You can go out with me and see. My territory is vast and my people number tens of millions. However, the resistance we face is also huge.

But there are always some people who desire to be superior to others. They try to enslave others and step on others to show their power.

Whether it is us humans, orcs, or other races, there are such people. But we cannot conclude that the entire race is evil because of this. I firmly believe that human nature is good.

I am willing to accept all those who yearn for freedom, and we will work together to build a better world. We will make a law that guarantees equality for all races and ensures that no race can be superior to other races. "Alpha's words became more and more confident and natural, without any timidity or hesitation.

"Lord Alpha, you said that all races are included, so what about werewolves, vampires, and other races that are considered evil creatures?" someone asked again.

"I have said that there are no evil races in this world, only evil individuals and organizations. Whether it is werewolves or vampires, there are also those who love peace and desire freedom. As long as they abide by our laws, we are willing to accept them." Alpha's words may cause more controversy and accusations on the ground, but here, underground, they have always been regarded as representatives of darkness and evil. Alpha's speech was specially formulated for them, aimed at their situation.

"What you said is sheer nonsense! There is no chance of success! Evil races can never become good, and this so-called alliance is just your wishful thinking." Kaili's voice was deafening, and his tone was full of disdain and doubt.
