Chapter 56: Fighting Back on the Spot
Xiao Chen and his party finally returned to the entrance of the cave, and there were only five of the six people they went there now. Elaina's body was buried under the taproot of the World Tree at her own request.
The crowd crossed the hole and made their way to the camp, where they were greeted not by a welcoming crowd, but by heavily armed elves. Swordsmen, mages, priests, and archers are all available. General Nord clasped his hands and looked at them with a complicated expression.
"General, we did it. But Elaine...... She died. She gave up her life to save the World Tree and save everyone. Maya looked sad and walked forward as she spoke. But Dinen grabbed her and glanced at the elven warriors, who, though none of them raised their weapons, would have gone into battle as soon as General Nord gave the order. He asked, "General, may I ask what is going on?"
"It's actually Elaina...... General Nord's eyes showed sadness, but he immediately hid this emotion and said in a deep voice, "However, something has happened to the World Tree, and all the fruits that are going to grow elves have fallen. The twenty elves that will be born next year are all dead! all of you must surrender your weapons and come with me. Get surveyed. ”
"Hand over the weapons, is this treating us as prisoners?" said Dinein, clenching his wand.
"Whatever you want, but now lay down your arms and follow me to the Praetorian Guard camp. ”
"General Nord, this is how you treat your heroes? We fought to the death, paid such a great price, drove away the enemy, saved the World Tree, and did everything according to the instructions of the elders! You, you still want to lock us up?" Dinen shouted angrily.
"Don't get excited, it's just an investigation now. Do you want to go against the elders?" asked General Nord rhetorically.
"I want to see the Elders! or I won't go with you. Dineen snapped.
Maya also said: "General Nord, if you do this, what will Elaina, who calls your uncle, think, if she knows that you are doing this to us now, I am afraid that death will not be peaceful!"
"The elders will not be available to see you. It's a mess out there right now. To tell you the truth, if you go with me, it will protect you and do you good. General Nord was still persuading, but his hand slowly touched his saber. Since these people in front of him are not cooperative, he is ready to use force.
However, there was one person among the crowd who was faster than him, and that was Xiao Chen. He had already prepared to cast a spell before he crossed the door, and when he saw that the other party might use force, he immediately attacked.
Xiao Chen used distraction to release three kinds of magic at the same time: Spiritual Blast, Heart of Fear, and Spirit Arrow.
Psychic blast, also one of Gomez's legacy, is a type of magic that shocks enemies on a large scale and puts them into a state of sluggishness for a short period of time, and enemies hit by this magic will greatly reduce their mental resistance during the spell's duration. So the power of the heart of fear magic after that was multiplied.
Half of the high-level warriors under General Nord died in the cave, and although there were many elves present, they were mainly middle and low-level, and there were not many high-level at all. These people had almost no resistance in front of Xiao Chen's powerful spiritual power, and after two baptisms of magic, they lost their combat effectiveness almost without doing anything, some fell to the ground trembling, and some ran around in fear.
And the remaining four high-level warriors were no longer affected by Xiao Chen's magic for a short period of time, and the rhythm of the battle was disrupted.
And several other people, who had long been ready for battle, also launched an attack at the same time. According to their prior plan, once someone is unfavorable to them, as long as Xiao Chen makes a move, they will go all out to besiege the strongest person present. Now this person is naturally General Nord.
The first two spells that General Nord experienced also produced a momentary trance, although with his master-level strength, this trance might only last half a second, but in this high-level battle, half a second was enough for a lot to happen. Xiao Chen's spiritual arrow had already attacked in front of him in this half second, and in a hurry, Nord had no time to dodge, so he could only stimulate his natural fighting spirit and resist the damage.
However, how could Xiao Chen's magic be easy to deal with, even if a lot of strength was consumed by the fighting spirit, the spirit arrow still shot into Nord's soul.
For any kind of spiritual magic, only a strong-willed, scrappy person will have enough resistance. But at this moment, how much fighting spirit did General Nord and his soldiers who were ordered to capture the hero have? Xiao Chen's invisible arrow burst in Nord's mind, making him really dizzy.
Dinein's chain of lightning struck General Nord in the chest, and the scurrying electricity struck several masters behind him again. These people had just recovered from Xiao Chen's magic, and before they could use their fighting energy, they were stunned by the electricity again.
A chain popped out of Maya's right wrist and trapped General Nord's upper body, and the energy was transmitted to Nord's body through the chain, and elements of electricity, ice, fire, acid, and various attributes surged into his body. This is Maya's proudest magic item, the true power of the Elemental Chain.
And Evelyn's two heavy arrows roared with the sound of wind and thunder, one left and one right exploded in Nord's shoulders, completely breaking his two arms and making him lose his combat effectiveness.
Then Roger, who was seriously injured and had just recovered, quickly bullied him and put the Thundermark Sword on Nord's neck. The Thundermark Sword in his hand, after this battle, actually evolved. The combination of the God Eclipse Elixir and the Divine Blood produced a strange reaction, which made its quality improve by leaps and bounds. Now, although there is no more God Erosion Elixir on this sword, it has a constant energy erosion effect on the gods and clans. Any energy related to divine power will gradually dissipate in front of it, and a race like an elf will be greatly suppressed in the face of this sword, and if it is in contact for too long, even the bloodline will degrade.
Nord felt a tingling sensation spread from his neck to the surrounding area as the sword was held around his neck, and the power that originated from his blood was gradually draining.
Roger dragged General Nord back to his team, Maya took out a small square prop and pressed it behind his back for a while, and a sealing circle appeared behind Nord's back. The fighting spirit of his whole body was suppressed by this seal. And this seal has another effect on the elves, making it impossible for them to touch the Web of the Tree Heart.
Xiao Chen, Dinein, and Evelyn mercilessly knocked the four high-ranking and other warriors to the ground one by one. Maya sealed everyone in turn. This kind of seal is very different from the Forbidden Ring used by Chen Hansheng, and it cannot be opened by these people without a magician or alchemist whose realm surpasses that of Maya.
"General Nord, I'm sorry, we can't follow your arrangement, so we can only strike first. Xiao Chen walked up to the decadent general, "Let's get out of here first, and then we can have a good chat." ”
