Chapter 583: The Exile Returns
DR October 1369 was nothing short of a disaster for the Wood Elves living in the Western Continent, especially in the Wildas Forest. Intrigue and killing are spreading in the land where they live, and the exile Joan. Irenikas finally unleashed the anger that had been building up for hundreds of years.
The army of dark elves pouring out of the ground destroyed all the villages and towns in the surrounding area, including the port city of Willen, almost instantly, and the smoke from the burning could be seen clearly even from kilometers away.
The Wood Elves were caught off guard, and all the towers were completely uprooted almost immediately, without even having time to raise the alarm. Countless lives were mercilessly slaughtered, and only a handful were brought back to the earth as slaves.
As the overlord of the dark region, the dark elves showed their fangs at this moment, and swept across the entire peninsula with a devastating force, whether it was humans, elves, or beasts and monsters in the forest, all of them were exterminated, among which the scene that occurred in the port city of Willen was the most tragic, more than 14,000 citizens except for a few were transported back to the ground as slaves, and the rest were all killed.
This is the race war on the Continent of Faerun, there is no sympathy, no mercy, from the old man who is about to die, down to the newborn baby, no one is spared, the ferocious and barbaric Cheng dΓΉ is absolutely outrageous. It's hard to imagine that there is only one reason for this qiΔ, and that is to please the sick hobby of the goddess Rose.
When the news of the destruction of Miè was transmitted back to Sodenisra by the rangers in the forest, the originally calm, elegant, and artistic city instantly boiled, and all the inhabitants demanded immediate revenge.
Queen Alistar hastily convened an emergency meeting overnight, and the next morning, General Elhan left the city with more than 5,000 elite troops, including mages, priests, and warriors. Plunge at the dark elves that are wreaking havoc everywhere.
After a day of travel. The two sides opened up fifty kilometers from Moulin, the second-largest port city in Amm. Preparing for a large-scale battle, the number of participants is 5,000 forest elves and more than 4,600 dark elves, which can be said to be evenly matched. The blood feud that lasted for more than 10,000 years was enough to ensure that they had no problems in terms of morale, and they all held back their strength to want the other party to kill them all.
As the last rays of the evening sun fell, the forest elves took the lead in blowing the horn of attack, and the sound of desolation resounded across the land, followed by the archers who drew their longbows. Countless arrows flew high into the air, and then flew like raindrops to the opposite position, kicking off this life-and-death battle.
"Up! Kill all the damn goblins! The High Priestess in command of the Dark Elves shouted frantically.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
All the dark elves fell into a state of madness, they shouted feverishly, and at the same time unleashed their heavenly abilities without any reason, and in an instant, a large opaque magical darkness covered the position of the forest elves, and then the spearhead soldiers riding underground lizards launched a charge without saying a word, and the other warriors and priests followed, almost in a very short time, they broke the formation and strangled together.
"Damn! These bastards disrupted my deployment. General Erhan scolded Zhou fiercely, but he couldn't come up with any solution.
He was well aware that his evil underworld cousins weren't good at large-scale combat. Therefore, he intends to use the formation to defeat the opponent and force it to retreat to the dark region. But now it seems clear that the calculation has been miscalculated. The commander of the dark elves was also very aware of this, so he chose the most brainless wave, leaving no reserves, and sent all the soldiers out in one go.
It can be said that this is a very clever strategy, giving full play to the characteristics of the dark elves' strong individual combat ability and tacit understanding in a small area, and the forest elves are defeated and retreated for a while.
Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more dangerous, Erhan didn't care about keeping his hole cards, and shouted at the trumpeter: "Blow the trumpet!" Let those mages move for me! β
"Yes, General." As he spoke, an elf took a deep breath and blew hard at the horn in his hand.
"Uh......h Woo...... Woo......"
When the elven mages at the rear of the formation heard the sound of the horn, they immediately formed a circle and chanted and incantations loudly: "Eric...... Barnes...... Bradick ......"
As the sound became higher and higher, a tremor suddenly appeared on the ground, and then a huge hole opened in the ground, and then several giant earth elements with a height of more than five meters rose from the ground, knocking hundreds of warriors to the ground and trampling them into flesh at once. They waved their rocky arms and feet with impunity, beating the dark elves in a matter of seconds.
Seeing the reversal of the situation, Erhan excitedly shouted, "Well done!" Everybody restructure the formation for me! Steady progress! β
On the other side, the high-ranking priestess of the dark elves was also yelling at the mage behind her: "Kill those earth elementals!" Right away! Otherwise, I'll let you lowly males know the wrath of the Spider Church! β
"I'm sorry, honorable High Priestess, we are a bit small in number, and we can only kill half of them at most." A Grand Master in charge of leading the team stepped forward and explained.
He was also a little helpless, the other party's mage group was obviously much stronger than his side, it seemed that it might be a nest attack, and there were so many giant earth elements in one shot, although there were not as many types of spells as the elemental elders, but it was definitely enough as a meat shield.
"Then kill one and count it as one! I want victory! Victory, do you understand?! The High Priestess said viciously.
She knew that this was an opportunity, and if she succeeded in defeating this army of forest elves, her reputation would be at its peak, and she might have a chance to replace the First Family's Adu (Lace) Mistress as the Patriarch of the Spider Academy.
Of course, if you fail, I am afraid that not only will you lose the favor of the goddess, but the end will definitely not be much better, it is estimated that you will either die of assassination or be turned into an irrational spider elf. No one liked it, so the priestess was ready to take a big gamble on her own fate and the fate of this army.
The dark elf mage glanced at the other party's distorted face, and knew that it was useless to say anything, so he had to bow slightly and replied: "As you wish!" β
Soon. These mages also formed a ring. The spell ritual began. A few minutes later, the massive earth elemental that was raging in front of it suddenly began to crumble rapidly, turning into a pile of stones in the blink of an eye. At first, one was the same, and then the second was the same, and after a while, the forces of both sides were once again balanced.
The dark elves and the forest elves were so inseparably separated on the battlefield that they didn't notice that two figures were looking down on them in the sky, like humans looking down on ants. The gods look down on mortals.
"Hehe, great master, it seems that our plan has succeeded. As you might expect, Sodenisra sent at least half of his troops. β
It was none other than the divine vampire Veran who spoke. The expressionless male standing next to her was undoubtedly the mastermind of this qiΔ conspiracy, the mastermind who had robbed Abdel of divinity, Joan. Irenikas.
The sturdy legendary mage glanced at Elhan, who was commanding the army, and his expressionless face showed a hint of disdain: "This is a matter of course, how can these ignorant mortals see through my perfect plan." Now it's time to get to the final stage, and I'm going to make these elves feel pain and despair. And then in the midst of their wailing they become true gods. β
"Yes...... But, great master. We're still chasing after a bunch of guys, especially the mage named Henry, who's so powerful that he could mess up the whole plan. Veran cautioned.
She feared Henry more than Joan. Irenikas, especially the last time we met, the "Implosion Technique" three in a row, was almost killed.
"Well, that's a big hassle, but I've got Yuxumo in Uster. The city of Nasa had set a trap that would delay enough time if they could not be killed. "Speaking of Joan. The corners of Irenikas's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a chilling smile.
Hearing Yu Xumo's name, Veran couldn't help frowning and asked, "Are you sure that bounty hunter has such a great ability?" β
Joan. Irenikas sneered and explained, "Humph! He doesn't need much ability, just follow the plan I set. It is believed that the Adu (Lace) Mother will not be able to resist the temptation when she finds that the attack has been frustrated, and take out the egg of the silver dragon as a sacrifice, once the secondary abyss lord is summoned to the main plane, no matter who it is, she will be in a hurry. β
After listening to the whole plan, Veran bowed respectfully: "Your wisdom is beyond my reach. β
"Alright, that's all the nonsense, I'm going to start using my magic to shield the city of Sodenisra." After saying that, Joan. Irenikas reached into his pocket, grabbed a handful of translucent particles and an oil lamp that shimmered with a strong magical light, and chanted an unknown incantation in his mouth, his two hands arcing in an arc that radiated a brilliant light.
As the transparent particles increased in mid-air, a plan of the city was gradually formed, and it was not necessary to know that this was the famous elven city of Sodenisra, which was claimed to be a city built on a giant tree.
Looking at his former hometown, his eyes looked quite complicated, but soon turned into determination and hatred, and he swung his fist and smashed it hard. In an instant, all the small particles turned into dust in the sky and disappeared with a bang.
At the same time, the inhabitants of Sodenisra noticed that the scenery around the city had changed dramatically, and many trees had suddenly appeared out of thin air, and after a few realizations, they finally realized that they were trapped by magic and could neither get out nor enter.
After completing the spell, Joan. Irenikas handed the oil lamp to Veran and said, "Take care of the Rayne's lamp, it is now the only key to breaking this illusion. I'm going to call up the army soon, and it's probably going to take a few days to get back. β
"Rest assured, I will protect the Lamp of Lane with my life until you return." As he spoke, Veran took the sacred object that once belonged to the tree elves with both hands, and carefully placed it close to his body.
The Lamp of Ryan was originally placed in the Temple of Mislein, the first place to be bloodbathed in the blood of the Dark Elves. It is a very powerful magical item that is said to be able to dispel hypocrisy and illusions. Joan. It was by harnessing the power of this artifact that Irenikas was able to cast a terrifying illusion that trapped a city...... (To be continued......)
