Game of the World Tree - Chapter 4

4. Chapter 4 Orc Hunting Team

In the depths of the Elf Forest, a hunting team composed of Orc mercenaries was carefully shuttling back and forth.

“Hurry up! You rubbish! If you let the target escape, don’t even think about getting any share this month!”

Captain Panshi cursed viciously, holding a mace made of animal bones.

After kicking his men’s butts, Panshi turned around, and his original sinister expression disappeared immediately. He smiled and looked at the towering World Tree in the distance, but his sharp teeth and ugly face made him look particularly ferocious:

“Hehehe, the priest is right. As long as we stay near the World Tree, we will definitely catch these stupid long ears!”

Thinking of the possible harvest next, Panshi’s heart became more and more expectant.

Since the War of the Gods a thousand years ago, the Mother of Nature, the main god of the elves, fell, and the World Tree withered and died. The elves have lost the protection of the true gods, and the strength of the race has plummeted.

As the most beautiful, elegant and long-lived race on the continent of Segus, elves have become a hot commodity in the slave trade for thousands of years.

A young female elf can be sold at a sky-high price in the human world!

Even an adult male elf is a hot commodity in high-end slave farms!

The Orc tribe, which already lives on the edge of the Elf Forest, has made a fortune by capturing elves and selling them to the human world.

This is even more true for Panshi, who has hunted more than ten elves. Even if the orc royal family is counted, he is considered a rich man in the entire tribe.

“After I finish this job, I will propose to Biluo, and then buy a house in the City of Chaos, and completely bid farewell to the barbaric mercenary life.”

Panshi thought happily in his heart.

“Boss… I found the target, a total of two! One is a female, absolutely top-grade! No… it’s top-grade!”

Suddenly, the scout’s surprised voice came from the front.

Panshi was invigorated and immediately drew his mace:

“Idiots! Draw your weapons! Let’s surround them quickly, be careful not to expose yourself, if anyone dares to do anything bad, I’ll smash his head!”

…

Alice and the others left the Temple of Nature in silence.

The elf girl looked back at the withered giant tree, her eyes red.

This was the last time they came to worship…

Every time, she hoped to wake up the Mother Goddess, but every time, she was disappointed.

Now, even as a saint of the Natural God Church, she had to admit that the main god of the elves might have really fallen completely…

The main god fell, the royal family was extinct, the elf kingdom had long been broken, the tribes fled in all directions, and the brilliant silver civilization became history…

Under the threat of the hunting team, all the existing tribesmen could only hide from place to place.

There was no hope for the future of the elves.

Thinking of those bastards who regarded the tribesmen as goods, mercilessly hunted and humiliated them, Alice almost gritted her teeth.

However, she felt powerless.

Without the blessing of the gods, the elves had long lost their former powerful strength.

“I wonder how many of us will be left in a hundred years…”

The girl sighed.

The old priest Samir was silent.

A hundred years…

will there really be a hundred years?

The elves… don’t even have a complete tribe anymore.

Even if they have regained their power now, without the blessing of the Mother Goddess and enough people, it will be difficult to restore their former glory.

The two walked quietly, feeling heavy-hearted.

Suddenly, Samir’s expression changed slightly, and his two pointed ears moved slightly.

He straightened up suddenly, stretched out his hand to bend a branch and put it between his nose to sniff slightly, and then his face changed drastically.

“Oh no! There are orcs!”

Before he finished speaking, the surrounding bushes suddenly “rustled”, accompanied by excited roars, more than a dozen hideous and ugly huge bodies appeared from the ambush, surrounding the two.

They were ambushed!

Looking at the orcs who suddenly appeared, the two elves’ faces changed drastically, and they immediately leaned back to back and drew out their staffs and weapons.

A dozen orcs looked at the elf girl greedily. Their evil eyes made Alice tremble.

Looking at the familiar dress, the elf girl’s heart surged with endless anger…

They met the orc hunting team!

The old priest Samir had a solemn face. He gritted his teeth and roared:

“I will hold them back, you run away!”

After that, he shouted loudly and chanted a rhythmic spell, and then transformed into a four-meter-tall black brown bear!

This is his druid skill. In a short period of time, he will transform into another natural creature and gain 70% of the opponent’s power.

And the giant bear he transformed into is a powerful third-level magic beast unique to the Elf Forest, with the strength of the upper black iron!

Feeling the momentum of the giant bear, the orc mercenaries were slightly agitated, and everyone’s expression became solemn.

However, before Samir, who had turned into a giant bear, could attack, a huge mace suddenly flew over and hit the brown bear’s chest and abdomen fiercely.

With the sound of “crackling” bones, the giant bear let out a painful wail, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and then the whole body hit the ground, and turned into an old elf again.

But at this moment, the old priest was already bloody and unconscious in a pool of blood…

Just one blow, the most powerful fighting force was abolished.

“Hehehe, so weak.”

The orcs cheered, and then slowly stepped aside. A three-meter-tall orc leader who looked like a meat mountain came over. It was Panshi.

Panshi picked up the mace on the ground, licked the blood dripping from the edge of the bone spur, and his eyes were full of teasing.

Alice looked at the other party in disbelief, and her voice trembled a little:

“How is this… possible?”

The old priest has the strength of level 30, which is already the peak of the middle position of Black Iron.

And there is only one situation that can defeat him instantly…

Black Iron upper position!

This leader is definitely Black Iron upper position!

And it is very likely that he has reached the peak of Black Iron upper position! Level 40!

The gap of 10 levels is a crushing defeat.

For a moment, she was filled with infinite despair.

She looked back at the withered world tree, her eyes full of sorrow.

“Mother Goddess… is this your punishment for us?”

“Hehe… Mother Goddess? Your mother tree was burned down by the gods thousands of years ago.”

Glancing at the giant tree in the distance with contempt, Rock licked the corner of his mouth and shook his head.

He was very satisfied with his attack just now. Just a few days ago, he finally promoted to level 40, reaching the peak of the upper black iron level, and only one level away from the silver level.

Father God! After finishing this job, I also have the funds to prepare for promotion to the lower silver level and become the most powerful person among the orcs.

Panshi thought happily.

He looked at Alice from head to toe, a trace of amazement flashed through his eyes, and his face was full of surprise:

“It’s really good stuff! Not bad, not bad, those humans will definitely like it!”

After that, he looked at the girl and threatened:

“If you behave yourself, you can suffer less…”

“Hehehehe…”

The orcs around also laughed with mutual understanding.

Alice’s eyes were full of anger. She took a deep breath, drew out her staff, and prepared to fight for her life.

However, before she could act, Panshi’s figure flashed slightly, and with a “snap” sound, her weapon was picked up and flew away.

“So weak… With this strength, you still call yourself a silver race?”

The orc’s voice was full of ridicule.

Silver race…

Hearing this word, Alice’s heart was even more sad.

In the distant past, when the elves were still protected by the Lord God, every adult elf had at least silver strength.

And the race that is silver when they grow up is also called the silver race.

At that time, how glorious was the civilization of the elves? Legends and demigods emerge in endlessly…

and now, even a professional who is above the Black Iron level is hard to come up with…

Not only that, but they are also bullied by the half-orcs who are barely called the Black Iron race!

Alice clenched her fists, feeling sad and angry.

“Hehehe, at this point, do you still think you have any other choice?”

Panshi joked.

Alice looked at him hatefully, feeling disappointed.

Thinking of those tribesmen who were destroyed in the looting and killing, and the tragic experiences of those compatriots who were sold as slaves, Alice’s heart became colder and more desperate…

Gradually, she calmed down.

The elf girl closed her eyes and began to chant silently…

A series of suppressed magic fluctuations spread out with the golden-haired elf as the center.

Panshi’s expression changed:

“Not good, she is going against the flow of magic to seek death, stop her!”

After hearing the leader’s words, the half-orcs suddenly became chaotic.

Panshi was even more angry.

Living elves are treasures, and dead ones are just corpses!

Alice pursed her lips. At this moment, a series of memories emerged in her mind again…

It was the time when she lived happily with her mother two hundred years ago…

It was the time when the tribe was still there and everyone prayed devoutly to the Mother Goddess…

It was the scene when her mother died and she was chosen as the last Saint of Nature…

A crystal teardrop rolled down, and Alice recited the last spell, instantly detonating the power of her faith!

A bright light bloomed from the girl, like a golden sun.

Panshi’s facial features twisted, and he roared:

“Stop her quickly…”

Before he could finish his order, the scene in front of him made him hold back his words.

A vague wave passed by, and the light on the girl flashed, and then it shrank like a punctured balloon… In the blink of an eye, it returned to calm.

It was as if nothing had happened just now.

The atmosphere was a little weird for a while.

Panshi looked at the dazed elf girl with strange eyes, swallowed the heart that jumped into his throat, and then laughed:

“Waste!”

Alice stared at her hands blankly, and kept muttering:

“Why not…”

“I didn’t recite the spell wrong… What happened just now…”

“Mother Goddess… Can’t I even control my own life…”

Looking at the elf girl who was in a daze, Panshi breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded to the left and right:

“Tie her up for me! Be careful not to hurt her!”

After saying that, his orcs did not move.

Panshi frowned:

“What are you doing? Work!”

The orcs still did not move, but instead looked at Panshi in horror and kept retreating.

“What are you doing?”

Panshi’s expression was slightly gloomy, and he was really a little angry, and a trace of anger kept rising.

A strong half-orc looked at the back of Panshi in a daze, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then tremblingly stretched out his hand, his voice was a little hoarse:

“Boss… behind… behind…”

Behind?

Panshi frowned.

A cool breeze with the smell of soil blew from behind, and a huge shadow covered everyone.

Panshi’s heart skipped a beat, and a trace of uneasiness spread faintly in his chest.

While muttering softly, Panshi turned around with some vigilance…

His expression suddenly froze.

Behind him,

a giant tree man more than 30 meters tall was standing there with a cold look.

The sturdy body covered the sky and the sun, and the huge and intimidating pressure made the air stagnant…

Looking at the terrifying figure, Panshi’s pupils shrank slightly.

His eyes widened, and at the same time he opened his mouth in horror, his voice was a little dry and incredible:

“Oak… Oak Guard?”

Basaka’s cold eyes swept over, his voice was cold, without a trace of emotion:

“Just now, what did you say?”
