Game of the World Tree - Chapter 320

320. Chapter 318 Something is wrong

If you ask players why they like Elfland, some may say it is because of the realistic graphics, some may say it is because of the crazy detailed settings, some may say it is because it is so vivid that people always subconsciously regard it as an NPC in the real world, and some may say it is because of the almost omnipotent freedom in the game…

However, if you ask players what their favorite task is in the game, I am afraid that most players will choose the war in Elfland!

The battle with the orcs during the summer activities has made many people addicted to war.

This kind of large-scale battle with thousands of people has a fatal attraction for players.

Unlike the wars in other games, in the wars of Elfland, players really feel immersive.

They can truly experience the madness and excitement, heroism and passion of the battlefield, which is far beyond the reach of other inferior virtual games.

Not to mention, the most prominent feature of the epic feeling of Elfland is the various wars.

And the more people participate in the war, the more exciting the spectacular scene and the feeling of adrenaline surge.

Realistic, epic, unprecedented sense of immersion and participation, as well as the refreshing feeling of chasing NPCs under the goddess’s BUFF; close combat hits the flesh, tense and exciting, long-range “fireworks” are brilliant, cool and domineering, which has long made players who have participated unable to stop…

Of course, in addition to these subjective feelings, another reason is that this kind of war-designed task is definitely the fastest task to gain experience.

Every time there is a war, there will be a group of lucky guys who will upgrade like a rocket, and most players will also make a lot of money in the task.

It may take a week or two to accumulate enough experience points and contribution points on weekdays, but you can earn them back by fighting a war.

So… after knowing that another war is coming, almost all players are boiling.

Everyone is running around to tell each other and choose to join the war.

As time goes by, the Black Dragon Castle, which is not very popular on weekdays, has also gathered more and more players.

Many players who are worried about missing the first battle even start hanging up in the castle several days in advance, for fear of missing the best opportunity.

At this moment, although the high-end combat power of the players is still in Maple Leaf City or lurking among the mercenaries, the players who stayed in the Elf Forest are no longer the same as before.

After this period of hard work, those low-level and medium-level players have also made breakthroughs again.

Level 21 is already the median of the entire server. Many second-test players and third-test players have gradually reached the threshold of the upper Black Iron level.

There is no doubt that after this mission, they will be successfully promoted to the upper Black Iron level and enter the first echelon.

I am afraid that it will not be long before many players will reach the capping level of 40 in “Elf Kingdom”.

Everyone is looking forward to the upcoming war, and their eyes are green and their expressions are excited. Alice and other indigenous elves who know the cause and effect sighed:

This group of chosen ones… are too aggressive.

Mother Goddess, do they have the blood of orcs in their bodies?

While the players were full of fighting spirit, the mercenary group hunting elves was gradually approaching the Dark Mountains…

Before setting off for this mission, everyone had already known the approximate location of the Black Dragon’s Lair based on the information that was buzzing in Maple Leaf City.

The Dragon’s Lair is located at the junction of the Dark Mountains and the Forest of Elves, in an abandoned castle!

Although the location is not accurate enough, considering that the black dragon is always used to hovering in the sky, the scouts have roughly determined the specific coordinates based on the opponent’s activity direction.

And the entire mercenary team is also getting closer and closer to the target under the leadership of the scouts.

In the mighty Black Dragon Crusade Team.

The leader of the Britta Mercenary Group, Cairns, stood on a big stone on the signpost, looking at the map in his hand, frowning slightly.

“At most half a day, we will be able to reach the Dark Mountains. What? Looking at your expression, are you scared?”

Beside him, Cynthia wiped her bow and said with a smile.

Cairns ignored the sarcasm in the other party’s words, just glanced at her, and said in a deep voice:

“No, I just feel something is not right.”

“Not right?”

Cynthia raised her eyebrows slightly:

“Are you worried about the strength of the black dragon? The other party is not even at the gold level. Considering that it is a giant dragon, its strength cannot be compared with that of ordinary silver monsters, but we have more than a dozen silvers!”

“Not only that, the two of us are above silver. Working together, plus our various preparations in the early stage, can’t we deal with a mere underage black dragon?”

After hearing what Cynthia said, Keynes shook his head:

“No, it’s not the black dragon’s problem.”

“Not the black dragon?”

Cynthia was stunned for a moment, then chuckled:

“If it’s not the black dragon, could it be the black dragon’s followers? Why are you worried about this? It’s just an underage black dragon, and it’s probably just raising some goblins or kobolds, or at most some wandering orcs. With the foundation of our two mercenary groups, there will definitely be no problem.”

An adult black dragon might be able to easily raise a team of thousands of followers, but they were dealing with an underage black dragon this time, so Cynthia felt that more than 5,000 mercenaries were enough to deal with it.

After saying that, she looked at Keynes again, but found that he was still looking at the map in his hand with a frown.

Cynthia’s heart moved, and her expression became more serious:

“What? Not a follower either?”

“It’s an orc.”

Keynes said in a deep voice.

“Orc?”

Cynthia frowned.

“That’s right.”

Keynes nodded, and then gestured on the map:

“According to my observations over the past few days, the black dragon’s lair is most likely here, here, and here… and these three places should all belong to the core area of a medium-sized tribe of orcs – the Cave Tribe. And now, we have actually stepped into the main area of the Cave Tribe’s activities.”

“Cave Tribe?”

Cynthia’s expression became serious.

The Owl Mercenary Group’s activity area is not in this area, so she is not very familiar with the distribution of forces nearby, but even so, she has heard of the famous Cave Tribe.

It is a famous elf hunting tribe among the orcs, and has many contacts with humans. Although its strength is not strong, it has a population of several thousand.

Thinking of this, Cynthia also frowned:

“What you said… is a little wrong. According to the habits of the orcs, if we step into their activity area, I am afraid they will issue a warning in advance.”

“But… let alone issuing a warning, there is not even a trace of orcs nearby.”

“That’s why I said it’s wrong.”

Keynes said in a deep voice.

After saying that, he raised his head and looked forward:

“If I remember correctly, we should be able to see the Cave Tribe after crossing the hill in front. Let’s be careful. I suddenly feel a little uneasy.”

As he said that, he closed the map.

Cynthia wanted to say something, but when she saw the other party gradually walking away, she stopped talking.

And the whole team, as time went by, was getting closer and closer to the real target.

However, after crossing the hill in front, the pupils of the two mercenary group leaders shrank at the same time.

What came into their eyes was not an orc tribe.

It was a ruined ruin.

The second update will be sent at midnight. Good night everyone.
