Chapter 287 Kestrel
"As you command!"
Hundreds of people responded loudly and neatly, resounding over the forest.
Soon, soldiers came out, took out the axes they had prepared, and chopped down the branches of the ancient tree without hesitation.
"This is His Highness's territory, humans, you can't do this!" The crow on the ancient tree became anxious.
It quickly flew down and stopped in front of one of the soldiers who was cutting down a tree, but was slapped away by the soldier.
Hundreds of people took action, and with the help of sharp axes, they cleared a road that could accommodate carriages without wasting much effort.
The road ahead leading deeper into the forest was flat, and this time their team consisted mostly of horse-drawn carriages, so it was obviously more convenient to clear all the obstructing tree trunks.
The soldiers kept their hands on, and the only sound that echoed in the forest was the "bang bang" sound of ax blades hitting tree trunks, and the frightened birds escaping from the nest cages built in the ancient trees.
"Did something happen to the forest? Why are there so many humans?"
"They are destroying our home!" A flying bird said angrily: "Your Highness will not welcome such guests!"
"They also brought many of our kind." Some birds looked down and saw animals belonging to the circus that accounted for half of the team.
"I'm going to ask Your Highness why we promised to punish these humans back then, and now these humans have come to the forest again." The owner of the old voice flew out from the flock of birds, it was a kestrel.
An old voice came with anger: "They are not our kind, they are human beings."
"Little birds, don't worry, we just want to get over it and won't destroy the main body of the tree." Alda flew out and loudly comforted the birds in human language.
"I am a parrot, not a human being." This time, Alda spoke out, a series of birdsong.
"Even if these humans turn into ashes, I can still recognize them." The old voice replied: "They were the ones who kidnapped my brothers and sisters back then."
However, the soldiers could not understand the birdsong, so they just waved their hands when the birds tried to stop them: "Get out of the way. If you block your way again, we will chop you down together."
Listening to Canary's shouting, Alda's eyes became a little cloudy.
A canary rushed out from the flock of birds and shouted at Alda: "Grandpa Kestrel said that you are a human being and you are not one of our kind, so we don't believe you."
"But they look like everyone in the forest. I saw monkeys, squirrels, goats, rabbits and canaries with gorgeous feathers like me." A young bird suddenly expressed doubts.
He turned around and looked at the other people around him. The soldiers were still working hard to chop down tree trunks to clear the way, but the circus was composed of his own people who didn't respond.
"You are humans. You are all humans who committed crimes and were turned into animals by His Highness." Canary shouted angrily at Alda: "Please humans, get out of our forest now."
Not long after the kestrel left, the flock of birds hovering high in the sky couldn't stand it anymore.
They swooped down one by one, not afraid of the sharp axes wielded by the soldiers, and shouted anxiously: "Humans, stop, don't chop anymore, you are destroying our home."
It soon flew out of the flock of birds and followed the road in the forest to the depths of the forest, flying straight towards a big tree in the sky.
As for the dozen or so people from the Animal Protection Association, they all got out of the carriage and were pacifying the birds that were interfering with the soldiers' felling of trees. They couldn't understand the birds' songs either.
Therefore, Arda had no scruples.
He sneered and said: "It doesn't matter that we are human beings. No matter what you say, no one here can understand it, and no one will help you. We will cut down these trees today!"
"You are indeed what Grandpa Kestrel said, shameless human beings." Canary was so angry that her whole body was shaking.
