Game of the World Tree - Chapter 216

Chapter 216: The Mercenary Who Quit While He Was Promising

Forest of Elves, Florence.

Demacia, who had just finished helping the NPC move bricks, checked his pitiful personal reputation rating, sighed, and entered the transmission array leading to the Chosen City.

With a flash of light, he returned to the central square of the Chosen City.

As soon as he arrived here, he felt something was wrong.

“Why are there so few people today?”

Looking at the sparsely populated square, Demacia was a little surprised.

You know, as the main city of the players, the Chosen City is bustling all day long on weekdays, and the central square connected to Florence through the transmission array is the most prosperous place in the entire city.

Especially at night, after the third test players joined, there were bonfire parties here every night, and even barbecue skewers were put out in the open recently. Well… Alice has become numb to this and let it go.

And tonight…

the bonfire was set up, but there were surprisingly few people in the square.

Not only that, Demacia also noticed that many people hurriedly packed up their equipment and ran to the southeast of the city.

“Where are all the people?”

Demacia was stunned.

He quickly grabbed a player who was running to the southeast and asked in confusion:

“Brother, where are you going? Where are the people in the square?”

The player looked at Demacia and was a little surprised:

“Boss Demacia? You haven’t gone yet?”

“Boss, you are the one with the lowest personal reputation in the whole server…”

Looking at his own reputation rating, Demacia wanted to cry but had no tears.

Player: …

He cleared his throat and said:

“Ahem…Didn’t anyone tell you? It seems that a hidden quest has been triggered over at Black Dragon Castle. A group of human mercenaries have come and are fighting! I heard there’s also a silver BOSS with magic equipment! Everyone is running over there!”

“Human mercenaries, hidden quest?”

Demacia was slightly stunned, and quickly opened her chat system, and then she saw the chat records that were off the charts…

The chat channel of the Nature’s Heart Guild had exploded:

“Oh no! The human army has attacked Black Dragon Castle!”

“What? Human army?”

“It seems to be mercenaries! They broke into the castle! It’s already a mess over there!” “

Are they very strong?”

“Yes! And there’s also a silver BOSS! With magic equipment! It seems to be a magic swordsman!”

“Fuck! The plot has been triggered! The plot must have been triggered again!”

“Go, go! Team up and fight! If you take it down, you’ll get silver equipment!”

And the friend list was all red:

“Demacia! Team up! There’s a fight at Black Dragon Castle!”

“Brother, where are you?”

“Hurry up and reply!”

Even Li Mu called him several times:

“Where are the people? Gather!”

“…”

“Have you finished cleaning the toilet?”

Demacia:…

Since the last time I was halfway through cleaning the toilet, I was directly attracted to the underground world by the news of the guild to engage in pyramid selling, which resulted in a few days of efforts to clean the toilet. After that, Demacia reluctantly blocked the chat when brushing the NPC’s favor.

So… today, he didn’t know about this until now!

“When did it happen?!”

He asked expectantly.

“Well… not long ago, just over ten minutes ago, it seems that Sister Miao triggered it first! Now she seems to be caught!”

The player replied.

He is a member of the Mengmeng Committee.

Demacia suddenly realized:

“It’s that flat-chested junior high school loli again? She’s too lucky!”

Player:…

“Boss Demacia, I won’t talk to you anymore. My teammates are calling me. I’m leaving first!”

He twitched his mouth, waved to Demacia, and hurriedly continued to run away.

Demacia was stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he quickly took out his weapon, contacted Li Mu, and hurriedly ran to the location of the Black Dragon Castle teleportation array in the southeast of the Chosen City…

…

In the hall of the Black Dragon Castle.

Seeing more and more elves, the crocodile’s face began to turn slightly pale…

The castle hall, which was originally expanded to facilitate the activities of the black dragon, was completely occupied by fully armed elves.

Looking around, there were no less than hundreds of people!

They crowded, yelled, and rushed towards the mercenaries. The front had already engaged the mercenaries.

However, because there were too many people, the people behind could not form a formation and were crowded together.

However, seeing the funny scene of the elves huddled together, the crocodile was not happy at all.

As the elves continued to appear, his mood gradually changed, from joy to shock, and from shock to fear!

Thirty elves, they were easy to deal with.

One hundred elves, he exploded, and with the help of the mercenaries, it was not impossible to quickly defeat them.

But now…

there are already no less than 300 elves in the hall!

Not only that, they are all fully armed, and most of them have the strength of the middle level of Black Iron!

What is even more shocking is that the magic circle behind is still flashing.

If the magic circle is not already full of elves that have been teleported here, there will probably be more people teleported here from somewhere…

How can there be so many elves? !

Are all the remaining young elves in the world gathered together? !

When did the elves… become so common?

Crocodile looked dazed.

You know, the biggest slave black market in the Holy Mannia Empire that he knew, when it had the most elf slaves, it only had less than 200.

Not to mention, less than half of them were young elves!

And here… hundreds of elves are all young and strong!

“Leader… Captain… are we still going to fight?”

A mercenary asked carefully, looking at his leader’s increasingly ugly face.

“Fight! Take those tied elves, give priority to women, and we will retreat!”

Crocodile cursed and decisively chose to retreat.

Hundreds of black iron middle-level elves have been recruited!

Although with his silver middle-level strength, plus a hundred subordinates, if a fight really breaks out, it is only a matter of time to defeat the opponent, but –

the teleportation array over there is still flashing!

Crocodile… really dare not guess how many elves have not arrived behind.

Lord of Eternity!

Where did these elves come from?

However, Crocodile no longer has the time to think about this problem.

He has been here with his men for more than ten minutes.

Such a big battle could attract the black dragon back at any time.

If the black dragon comes back, I’m afraid hundreds of them will have to die here.

So… it’s the right way to withdraw while you’re ahead, and take the tied elves and retreat!

The crocodile’s eyes flickered slightly, and then he took out a magic scroll from his arms and tore it open!

After a vague magic fluctuation, a large ball of gray-black smoke appeared in his hand.

The crocodile stretched out his hand and the smoke immediately spread, covering the elves’ vision…

In the hall, the players coughed one after another.

“Take the people! Let’s retreat!”

After doing all this, the crocodile gave an order and took the lead in carrying a female elf who was tied up and ran out…

And the remaining human mercenaries followed suit, taking the elves who were tied to the wall in advance and ran out of the castle.

“Pfft, pfft, pfft… What kind of smoke is this? It’s so choking!”

“Oh no! They’ve escaped!”

“Catch up!”

After the mercenaries dragged the bound players out of the castle, the remaining players also hurriedly chased after them.

However, after escaping the castle, the crocodile sneered twice and took out a scroll from his arms again.

It was a magic scroll with a golden border, engraved with complicated magic patterns and inscriptions.

As a senior silver warrior, it is impossible for him to not have one or two trump cards in his hand.

And this scroll is a lost space magic scroll that the crocodile got when he was exploring an ancient relic a few years ago!

At the same time, this is also the key to the crocodile’s courage to sneak into the castle at the risk of being discovered by the black dragon!

He chanted a spell, and the magic scroll began to bloom with a bright light…

Then, the scroll spontaneously ignited, and a heart-pounding magic wave spread out, forming a flashing light gate in front of the crocodile!

Seven-ring magic – [Portal]!

This magic can last up to five minutes and can teleport the target five kilometers away!

The crocodile had already made preparations in the camp. Once the scroll was activated, the teleportation location would be immediately located in his camp five kilometers away!

He had calculated all this in advance! It was to avoid the possible counterattack of the black dragon.

But he didn’t expect to use it to avoid the elves…

“Go!”

As soon as the light gate opened, the crocodile ordered his subordinates.

The mercenaries also hurriedly entered the light gate with those stunned “trophies”…

After the last mercenary entered, the elves in the castle also caught up.

“No! They are trying to escape!”

“Is it a teleportation magic?!”

“Quick! Chase them!”

They raised their weapons and rushed towards the crocodile like a group of locusts.

Looking at the elves running towards him, for a moment, the crocodile had the urge to lure some elves into the portal as well…

There were thousands of brothers on the other side of the portal. If they were ambushed, they would kill these elves one by one!

Crocodile didn’t believe that the elves here could be more than his mercenary group!

It is estimated that a few hundred people should be almost at the limit, right?

However… this thought only flashed through his mind, and he gave up.

Because he saw that a dark shadow had appeared on the horizon and was getting bigger and bigger…

It was the black dragon

! The black dragon… is back!

It is the truth that a mercenary group can survive for a long time to stop when things are going well.

Crocodile looked deeply into the sky, and then sneered at the elves who caught up with him:

“Good luck to you! Goodbye!”

After saying that, he also stepped into the light gate…

Then, the light gate flashed slightly and disappeared into the darkness.

Only a group of players who had missed the opportunity were left staring at each other…

“What a cautious guy!”

Watching Crocodile’s series of actions from the player’s perspective, Eve couldn’t help but admire him in her heart…

“But… why do you want to take people back?”

Glancing at the players outside the castle who were communicating with dozens of unlucky people who were kidnapped in the chat system, Eve sighed slightly.

Thanks to Fang Gao for the 500-point reward! Thanks to Fenlong for the 100-point reward!
