Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 96 - : Annihilation of the Group
Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Annihilation of the Group
The Black Dragon fell to the ground as the glow of Divine Power slowly faded, and everything returned to its original state.
It seemed as if the recent Divine Miracle was merely an illusion.
Meanwhile, all players once again received a new system message:
[Ding——]
[Successfully escorted a total of 181 elves from the Flame Tribe. Deliver them to Feilengcui to complete the mission. Rewards will be distributed based on mission contribution and the number of elves successfully escorted.]
...
[Ding——]
[Triggered side storyline: Transport the captured Black Dragon to Elf Town]
[Mission Reward: 50 contribution points]
“Capture the Black Dragon?”
Their eyes brightened, and they simultaneously turned to look at Mairrel, who lay fallen on the ground, tightly bound by ropes transformed from Divine Power.
Looking at the curious gazes from the elves, Mairrel felt humiliated and furious.
She wanted to open her mouth to speak, but under the tight bind of the ropes, she could only make muffled whimpers.
“The Goddess is so powerful! She just captured the Black Dragon!”
“After all, she is a True God!”
The players, while marveling and excited, moved closer to Mairrel.
They ignored Mairrel’s resentful gaze and, while boldly and curiously touching her scales, excitedly took screenshots as souvenirs:
“This Black Dragon is so cool!”
“Its scales are really tough!”
“Let’s take a group photo!”
“Wait… let me strike a pose!”
Mairrel: …
At the same time, the players occasionally voiced some ideas that terrified Black Dragon Mairrel:
“I wonder if its scales can be made into a shield; they feel so sturdy…”
“I remember in fantasy stories, it is said that drinking Dragon Blood grants powerful strength. I wonder if its blood is useful?”
“By the way… is there any way to tame it as a mount? A Dragon Knight… just thinking about it is so cool!”
Mairrel: …
She whimpered softly and looked resentfully at these despicable creatures…
*How cruel the intelligent species are!*
*So evil!*
*These long-eared beings are truly evil!*
*They not only want my scales but also want to drink my blood, and even want the great Mairrel to serve as a mount!*
*Oh heavens! Is my life as a dragon really going to end here?*
*I haven’t become the greatest dragon yet, I am not willing to accept this!*
*What will become of my future?*
As she thought about it, tears welled up in her eyes.
“What the heck! It’s crying?”
“This Black Dragon is unbelievably timid!”
Mairrel: …
She turned her head away, closed her eyes, and angrily started to play dead.
Meanwhile, the elves of the Flame Tribe, after cheering, fell into sorrow.
In this breakout, dozens of the Old Elves had died in battle.
The remaining tribe members sorrowfully gathered the bodies of their fallen comrades, intending to use magical flames for cremation.
This was the Elf Forest.
In elven tradition, cremating the bodies of the deceased and scattering the ashes in the Elf Forest represented returning to their roots, while their souls would ascend to the Mother Goddess’s Heaven…
However, while gathering the bodies, the elves were astonished to find that the bodies of the young fallen tribe members had disappeared…
Not only that, but they were surprised to see that the surviving young tribe members seemed not to mourn the passing of their companions at all.
In fact, they seemed quite excited.
Even though many had sorrowful expressions, something about it all seemed… off.
It seemed they were suppressing their true emotions…
The Flame Tribe members couldn’t shake the feeling that something was wrong, but they couldn’t put their finger on it.
Before they could ask anything, the players joined them in their mourning, wearing expressions of grief and sorrow for the fallen Old Elves, thus swallowing any words left in their throats.

El, after his body recovered, intended to pursue the fleeing Half-Beasts once more.
Though the Half-Beasts had fled far away when the Mother Goddess’s power descended, El was still unsettled.
Just as he was about to depart, the voice of the Mother Goddess echoed in his mind:
“No need to pursue them.”
No need?
El paused.
However, since the Mother Goddess said there was no need to pursue, he decided to abandon the chase.
He then assisted the Flame Tribe in gathering the bodies of their fallen people, while the players enthusiastically assisted the elves in organizing the books they had abandoned. Finally, they excitedly dragged along their spoils of war—the feigning-dead Black Dragon Mairrel—surrounding the native elves as they began their journey back…
…
The forest’s edge.
The Half-Beast Priest fled hastily, accompanied by guards…
For this ambush, the Rock Cave Tribe had dispatched over three hundred Half-orc Warriors, all in their prime!
However, after encountering those crazy elves and that frail Silver Knight, the Half-orcs died in frustration one after another…
Now, only just over a hundred had managed to escape.
Moreover, what terrified the Half-Beast Priest even more was that Lord Mairrel had not returned!
Even though there were no pursuers behind them, this discovery horrified him.
“The World Tree’s Leaf… just its power wouldn’t be able to control Lord Mairrel for so long, could it be… an even more terrifying enemy exists?”
“Just now, I seemed to sense a power fluctuation similar to Divine Power… Although I couldn’t sense the specific aura, that intense fluctuation must be the power of a True God!”
As he pondered, he became more terrified, more aghast.
At this moment, the fleeing group suddenly halted…
“What’s happening?”
The Half-Beast Priest’s heart tightened, and he looked ahead.
At some point, a tall figure appeared at the exit of the Elf Forest.
She was cloaked head to toe in a black robe, dark gray hair hanging from her hood, and a pair of crimson eyes quietly watching the Half-beast squad.
Her expression was calm, as if she were looking at a group of the dead.
The Half-Beast Priest’s pupils narrowed slightly.
Because… he couldn’t sense this person’s presence at all!
Another possibility was that the other party possessed a great ability to conceal presence or held power far beyond his imagination!
He was about to say something when a massive pressure suddenly emanated from the mysterious figure.
In an instant, the heart of every Half-orc filled with shock, as the pressure was countless times stronger than that of the Black Dragon Mairrel earlier!
High-level Professionals!
This was a High-level Professional who had achieved Golden Power!
The Half-Beast Priest screamed frantically in his heart, but no words came out of his mouth.
Then, the mysterious figure suddenly raised her head, and a cold, deathly Divine Power burst forth from her, radiating outward.
All the Half-orcs she touched froze, then fell, lifeless…
And perceiving the aura of that Divine Power, the Half-Beast Priest’s eyes widened in horror:
“Death… Death… Death God’s Favor…”
He couldn’t finish his sentence before likewise losing his breath.
Over a hundred Half-orcs fell inexplicably.
Not a single one escaped.
At this moment, the tall silhouette waved her hands once more, unleashing a surge of life force that quickly consumed all remaining life energy from the Half-orcs.
She then transformed again, taking the form of Eve.
“If you kill so many on my territory, don’t think you can escape.”
Leaving those words behind, she transformed into radiant light and slowly disappeared.
