Game of the World Tree - Chapter 525

525. Chapter 523: The War of Races, No Innocence (Update)

The sword skills that shone with silver light were extremely gorgeous, and the figures of the female elves and the old orcs overlapped and intertwined.

The clanging metal sound of the long sword and the big knife colliding came like raindrops, and from time to time it was accompanied by the roar of the orcs, the light shouts of the elf girls, and the cheers of the onlookers.

The wind and waves generated by the huge collision stirred up waves of sand and dust, and the cracks on the ground that were half a meter deep crisscrossed.

Those were the traces left by the battle between the two sides.

Within a radius of 20 meters between the two people, an open area had been formed, and no one dared to step forward.

Although more and more players came to watch after hearing the news, everyone just stood on the periphery and watched, sometimes cheering, sometimes sighing, and sometimes whistling…

No brave guy dared to step forward easily.

The power exerted by the silver professional with all his strength is far beyond the black iron level.

Especially this is a senior orc warrior in the middle of the silver level!

On the other side, there was Yuexia Jasmine, the third-ranked player in the battle power ranking.

In fact, although she was ranked third, no one doubted that Yuexia Jasmine’s strength in one-on-one combat was second only to Hefan, the first player in the server.

Because the second place was actually a certain rich woman who could beat everyone with just her equipment score…

but the equipment score was the equipment score.

A certain rich woman might have the best AOE ability in the server, but it was not necessarily the case in one-on-one PK.

The aftermath of the battle between the top player and a silver-ranked NPC was naturally something that ordinary players could not enter.

The Red Sand Tribe had already fallen, and it was time to reap the harvest. No one wanted to be affected by the aftermath of the big man and be sent directly back to the resurrection point.

And those silver players who were startled by the noise and rushed over one after another just watched from a distance.

“This is a battle between me and him, don’t let anyone interfere.”

Yuexia Jasmine said to other players before the battle.

She was also well-known in the server.

Many people know that this Valkyrie likes to fight strong men one-on-one, and she doesn’t even need treatment during the battle, so naturally no one went up to disturb her at this moment.

Of course, this is also the respect that the girl showed to the half-orc.

As the center of the battle, Yuexia Jasmine herself was more excited than ever at this moment.

She hasn’t encountered such a good fight for a long time.

This old half-orc is very powerful, and she once again found the excitement of the life-and-death battle when she first encountered a monster in the wild.

Even her previous gloomy mood gradually disappeared.

Warm liquid flowed down her cheeks, which were the wounds cut during the battle.

Yuexia Jasmine’s body has already added a lot of scars.

The originally bright and gorgeous silver armor had been cut by the blade for several large cuts, stained with blood, one of which almost cut the girl off from the waist, and the internal organs squirming under the wound could be faintly seen…

However, Yuexia Jasmine’s face remained unchanged, as if she didn’t care about the injuries on her body.

Unlike the others, she did not turn off the pain.

However, the desire for battle had already caused the girl’s adrenaline to surge.

Her muscles were tense, and she only had the battle in her eyes. She had long ignored the pain, and even the faint pain stimulated her nerves, making her more excited.

Compared with Yuexia Jasmine, who was still fighting despite her increasing injuries, the old half-orc was in a worse state…

His leather armor had been completely dyed dark red by blood.

Especially the hideous wound on his chest, with the flesh turned outward, and the ribs could be vaguely seen.

The wrinkles on the old face trembled slightly, and an abnormal bright red floated.

Heavy panting came from the nostrils and mouth of the old half-orc, and from time to time he spit out some pink blood foam…

The big knife in his hand trembled slightly, as if every movement was very difficult, and he would be defeated by the girl’s gorgeous sword skills in the next second.

However, he was like a stone pillar in the storm, guarding in front of the main tent, not moving at all.

The old half-orc’s eyes were very calm, without a trace of ripples.

However, his breath gradually became disordered.

He was too old.

Really too old.

The once tall warrior had long been bent by the years. Although he was still strong, his waist and back were slightly hunched.

The ravages of time made it impossible for him to exert his peak combat power. Whether it was speed and strength, or endurance and recovery, he was much worse than before.

Defeat was sooner or later.

Another sword passed by, and Yuexia Jasmine’s figure flashed back, while the old half-orc groaned, and a burst of blood mist burst out of his body again.

His figure seemed to be even older.

The cheers and applause of the players around him became louder and louder.

However, Yuexia Jasmine frowned slightly.

“Why didn’t you dodge the sword just now? What is in this main tent? What makes you so persistent?”

She asked.

The old orc should have been able to dodge the move she just performed.

But if he dodged, the girl’s sword skills would affect the main tent behind him.

In the end, the old orc chose to take her sword.

After hearing Yuexia Jasmine’s question, the old orc did not answer.

His eyes were still calm, but a rare smile appeared on his old face.

That smile had a kind of light tenderness and a kind of persistent persistence.

Such an expression surprised Yuexia Jasmine.

The old orc raised the rusty knife in his hand with difficulty and pointed it at Yuexia Jasmine again.

His other hand stretched out tremblingly, with his palm facing up, four fingers bent, and gently hooked at the girl.

“Come and fight…!”

His voice was hoarse, but there was a kind of unyielding and heroic spirit.

However, everyone could sense that he had run out of energy this time.

The cheers of the players gradually became smaller.

The way they looked at the old orc also gradually changed.

Everyone’s expression gradually became serious, and there was a bit of admiration in their eyes.

This is a real warrior!

Even if he is an NPC, even if he is an enemy that the players must eliminate…

Yuexia Jasmine was also slightly moved.

Her eyes became more and more serious.

She raised her sword, the bright moonlight condensed behind her, and a powerful aura continued to rise from her body…

“This is my most powerful skill, and also my trump card, the fifth-level skill – [Star-Moon Cross Slash].”

“I haven’t mastered it completely yet.”

“Let me use this skill to send you on your last journey.”

She said seriously.

The old orc smiled slightly.

Then, he took the initiative to move.

He raised the rusty big knife in his hand, shouted angrily, and rushed towards Yuexia Jasmine.

Yuexia Jasmine’s expression became serious.

The bright moonlight gathered behind her and turned into countless starlights, illuminating the battlefield beautifully.

She jumped up and rushed towards the old half-orc, swinging her sword.

The colorful starlight drowned everything, and the dazzling light made many people close their eyes subconsciously.

When they opened their eyes and looked at the battle, the battle was over.

The old orc still raised the rusty knife.

However, he still couldn’t fall.

Yuexia Jasmine’s sword had pierced his chest.

“You lose.”

The girl said.

Then, she drew the sword.

The sword was pulled out of the old orc’s chest, bringing a flower of blood.

The old orc staggered a few times.

He barely kept his shape until he used the rusty knife to rest on the ground.

He lowered his head with difficulty and saw the scarlet blood spreading on his chest.

“Yes, I… lost…”

he said hoarsely.

However, Yuexia Jasmine frowned.

Because she knew that the sword she just struck should have crushed the old orc’s heart.

Logically, he should be bleeding and dying now.

However, for some reason, although the old orc was seriously injured and dying, he was still hanging on to his last breath…

something that was impossible to happen happened at this moment.

Looking at the old orc’s eyes with a trace of worry and attachment, Yuexia Jasmine’s heart moved and said:

“You… have anything else to say.”

After hearing her words, the old half-orc raised his head with difficulty, and his expression was slightly stunned.

But soon, it turned into relief.

He did not directly answer Yuexia Jasmine’s question, but opened his mouth with difficulty and said:

“The mistake…is ours…We are willing to…pay the price…”

“The true god…abandoned us…He is unworthy of being the god of the race…This is…our…price…”

“It’s just that they…they don’t understand anything…”

“Please…spare their lives…”

They?

Yuexia Jasmine was slightly stunned.

They?

The rest of the players were also puzzled.

At this time, a gust of cold wind blew, and the main account door, which was originally shaky under the aftermath of the battle, was also blown open by the strong wind, revealing the situation inside.

Dozens of young orcs were lying on the ground.

They closed their eyes tightly and breathed steadily. They

didn’t look like they were asleep, but seemed to be knocked out or fainted.

At this moment, the players suddenly understood everything.

Their eyes looking at the old orcs changed again.

Under the command of the gods, the young and strong orcs abandoned the tribes. The old

, weak, sick and disabled were all left behind by them.

For them, the elderly are no longer useful, but children can be reborn.

Many players have complained about this cold-blooded race.

But at this moment, everyone suddenly felt that some things were not absolute.

Even the coldest races can still have warmth.

But…

Moon Jasmine was slightly moved at first, and then said in a cold voice:

“You should know that orcs can never be forgiven. When you were killing the elves, did you ever think of letting them go? Have you ever thought about this day?”

“In the war of races, no one is innocent.”

The old orc fell into silence after hearing this.

His expression became more and more lonely.

“But…”

Moon Jasmine changed the subject:

“I can promise you that I will spare their lives, but they must sign a contract to become slaves and become vassals of the elves.”

“You can understand this as a kind of atonement.”

The old orc was slightly stunned.

Then, with a bitter smile:

“I understand…”

After speaking, a burst of blood mist spurted out of his chest.

His body was shattered and turned into ashes…

Only a leather armor stained with blood and a rusty long sword fell to the ground.

This chapter is quite difficult to write. Recently, the plot involves two turning points. One is the strategy for alien races, and the other is the mentality of players after the bloody battle. I have been planning to deal with these two things for a long time, and I also know that they are likely to cause controversy.

However, although I know it will cause controversy, I still feel that it needs to be written, even if it may make some readers dissatisfied and abandon the plot.

This world is by no means black and white, nothing is absolute, and absolute means extreme. This includes any party, any angle, and any approach.

Of course, I will try my best to write it to everyone’s satisfaction.

This book is by no means dark, but it is not a saint either.

This is a game, but it is not a game either.

There will be another update tonight, which will be a little later.
