Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 337 - 320: The Secret Operation

Never overestimate the character of players.

Perhaps when interacting with NPCs for quests, considering their personal reputation evaluation, they had learned polite communication and role-playing,

but when facing enemies,

grass (a type of plant), who needs to act!

No reputation to gain, just go for it!

The various vulgar words that burst out from their mouths left the mercenaries at the front line dumbfounded, finding it hard to associate these beautiful beings in front of them with the graceful entities in their memory,

if the previous display of frenzied combat had already shattered their image in the mercenaries’ minds,

then now, it was collapsing.

These elves, who upended the mercenaries’ understanding, left them stunned, even causing their movements to hesitate momentarily.

Unlike the bewildered mercenaries, the leaders of the two mercenary groups suddenly changed their expressions upon hearing the elves’ cursing.

They, suddenly realized a problem.

The trebuchets seemed to be on the elves’ side.

And those trebuchets were on the castle.

The castle, belonged to the Black Dragon.

In other words, these elves and the Black Dragon were a team!

These elves, could they be the Black Dragon’s clansmen?!

The Black Dragon actually recruited so many elves as clansmen?!

For a moment, the two Silver Upper experts gasped, finding it unbelievable.

This, couldn’t be, right?

The evil Black Dragon, how could it possibly entangle with elves?

No, these elves couldn’t be seen in the usual light, they were a bunch of lunatics dressed in elven skin!

Wait,

if this were true, then the ones who destroyed the Half-Beast Rock Cave Tribe,

thinking of a certain possibility, the pupils of the two mercenary group leaders widened.

Did they also wipe out the Rock Cave Tribe?

They silently wiped out a medium Half-Beast Tribe?

Upon realizing this possibility, Kains’s expression changed dramatically, and he hurriedly shouted,

"It’s bad! Break out! Quickly break out! Break out in the direction we came from!"

To silently wipe out a medium Half-Beast Tribe, such beings, even if two mercenary groups could reasonably deal with them, they would still suffer a significant loss!

Mercenaries were profit-driven.

If it was really as he imagined, then even if this mission could be completed, the two mercenary groups would be severely damaged.

At this moment, Kains had already decided to abandon the mission and retreat.

Ridiculous!

They could silently wipe out the Rock Cave Tribe, most likely with a Black Dragon backing them, what was the point of fighting such opponents?

Did you see those elves still charging this way in the distance?

Their numbers were not just in the thousands, but approaching tens of thousands!

And, they were riding Demon Beasts!

By the Eternal Lord above! Had they gathered all the elves in the entire world?!

At this moment, Kains was sure this so-called hunting mission was definitely a conspiracy!

Damn it! No wonder the border count never sent his White Maple Knight, he must have known it was a trap!

Kains gritted his teeth.

Although he was still puzzled about the origin of these elves, it did not stop him from entertaining thoughts of withdrawal.

However, just at this moment, what he feared most still happened,

accompanied by a resounding dragon’s roar, an overwhelming pressure swept the entire field.

"Rua——! How dare you trespass the great and noble Mairrel’s territory! You wicked humans must face the justice of retribution!"

An excited, youthful voice came from afar, and Kains looked up to see a growing dark shadow,

a gigantic body, sky-covering bat wings, fierce scale armor, terrifying pressure,

it was a Black Dragon with a size of dozens of meters!

Was this the Black Dragon that the border count mentioned?!

Feeling the aura emanating from Mairrel, Kains turned pale.

Although he was certain that the other party was indeed not yet an adult and had not reached the Golden Rank, the terrifying aura was definitely beyond ordinary silver!

Not to mention, this Black Dragon, though not yet adult, already had a body size over two-thirds of an adult Black Dragon!

And the body size of a dragon, among the same dragon type, almost proportionally indicated strength.

Seeing the opponent at that moment, Kains made a judgment in his heart,

not a match!

They, were definitely not a match for this Black Dragon!

Without those elves, maybe they could have used their numbers against the Black Dragon, finding an opportunity to ambush wasn’t impossible.

But adding those crazy long ears, the scales of war had completely tipped!

Kains could clearly see that with the Black Dragon’s appearance, the mercenaries, already starting to panic, became even more chaotic at this moment.

That was not only humanity’s natural fear of dragons but also the dragon’s might from this Black Dragon!

This Black Dragon, though not yet adult, already had dragon’s might no weaker than an adult Black Dragon.

And under the intimidating aura of the Black Dragon, those mercenaries with the weakest strength couldn’t help but start shaking!

Seeing the increasingly chaotic troops, Kains gritted his teeth and shouted,

"Cynthia! Call your Silver Ones, restrain the Black Dragon together, buy time for everyone’s breakout!"

After speaking, he raised his longsword and charged towards the diving Black Dragon.

And upon hearing his words, Cynthia hesitated for a moment, then quickly summoned the other Silver to join in.

In an instant, thirteen Silver Experts from the mercenaries acted together, facing the Black Dragon’s attack.

Silver Mages from the two mercenary groups exchanged a glance, each taking a golden scroll from their bosoms, reciting incantations with varied tones, and tearing them without hesitation!

Intense magic waves spread out, as two profound beams shot into the sky, transforming into two intricately illusionary Magic Arrays, summoning two fierce Devil Vines to entangle the Black Dragon,

Six-Circle Magic—[Summon Devil Vine]

This was a special ace prepared by the two mercenary groups before the operation to deal with the Black Dragon.

Black Dragons had high magic resistance, and besides Divine Arts which could effectively harm them, ordinary magic could rarely work.

However, summoning magic was an exception.

This summoning magic conjured Devil Vine was not magic, but inherently a powerful living plant, not only serving as excellent magical material but also an outstanding control tool.

Of course, they couldn’t completely control the Black Dragon.

But even so, it could greatly disrupt its actions.

Just as expected,

Mairrel never expected them to have such a trick.

Barely avoiding one vine, it was entangled by another Devil Vine.

With its wings bound, the Little Black Dragon immediately lost its ability to fly, crashing down clumsily.

"Damn it! This sneaky trick again!"

Mairrel was furious.

However, a Six-Circle Magic was a Six-Circle Magic, far below the cage of light that controlled it before.

Although the Devil Vine wrapped around the Little Black Dragon, impacting its movements and grounding it, it didn’t completely imprison it.

Of course, until the Devil Vine’s Magic Power was exhausted, the Little Black Dragon would not be able to break free.

But, Kains and others were already satisfied.

Just slightly affecting the opponent had already created an opportunity for them!

Several Silver Warriors quickly seized the moment.

Silver Warriors raised their longswords, their bodies shimmering with skills’ brilliance, and charged towards the enraged Black Dragon.

Mages began chanting, powerful magic energy gathering within them.

Skill and magic formed one after another, aiming at Mairrel.

Mairrel let out an angry roar, using sharp claws and teeth to ward off the warriors’ attacks, spewing terrifying Dragon Breath to engulf the incoming magic.

The two sides engaged, reaching a stalemate.

While the battle among the Silver beings was locked in a standoff, the fight between mercenaries and elves was becoming ever more intense.

At this moment, dozens of figures hidden among the mercenaries quietly started moving.

They were mages sent by the border count’s steward to the mercenaries.

Gradually pushing to the periphery, they stood at different positions, faintly forming a hexagram shape, enveloping most mercenaries and Mairrel.

With fanatical expressions, they silently chanted mysterious incantations.

And at this moment, no one noticed their actions.
