Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 200 - 194 Out of Control

Chapter 200 -194 Out of Control

The ground trembled slightly, and all the players on the walls could feel the fierce spatial fluctuations stirred by the four grey-black energy pillars outside the city…

After the Dark Believers used up all the magic stones in one breath, the summoning array was instantly pushed to its maximum.

It seemed to have touched a critical point, as the Shadow Creatures surged out on a scale far beyond their imagination, even causing the leader of the Dark Believers to change color.

Tens of thousands of grey-black Shadow Creatures spewed out like rain, instantly flooding the area outside Black Rock City…

“Holy shit!”

“Holy shit!!”

“Isn’t this way too many?”

“Can the shield hold up?”

The players widened their eyes in shock, looking through the spell defense shield at everything happening outside the city.

All they could see were grey-black monsters.

Although players were not unfamiliar with scenes of armies besieging in films or other games, facing a siege of tens of thousands of troops, especially from terrifying monsters, was an indescribable psychological shock…

The scene of 5,000 Rohan Knights charging the enemy in “The Lord of the Rings” already made people’s blood boil, but a charge by tens of thousands of nearly two-meter-tall Shadow Monsters was even more terrifying.

This spectacular yet horrifying scene almost exceeded the players’ imagination, causing everyone to change color.

It was the psychological suppression brought by the difference in scale!

The Shadow Creature army was like a torrent, completely surrounding Black Rock City.

They charged towards Black Rock City like ants encountering delicious food!

Eve had not pushed the spell defense shield to its limit, so as the army charged, the pale golden spell defense shield began to flicker and tremble, making creaking sounds as if it were about to collapse…

Seeing this, even the dark dwarves in Black Rock City began to panic.

The Dwarf Temple Master watched the surrounding Shadow Army with a pale face, her voice filled with disbelief,

“Are they crazy? Are they really going to destroy Black Rock City?! Such a large-scale summoning—aren’t they afraid of the Deep Rift Cave being eroded by shadows?!”

The densely packed Shadow Creatures swarmed up, eager to climb the city walls protected by the spell shield, bringing unprecedented psychological pressure to everyone in Black Rock City.

A small portion seemed to have completely lost control, starting to rampage throughout the Deep Rift Cave, slaughtering everything in sight.

At this point, the number of Shadow Monsters slain by players through the shield gaps was just a drop in the bucket compared to the entire Shadow Army.

“Temple Master, Temple Master! Quickly, borrow the power of the True God, or… I fear Black Rock City truly will fall!”

Looking at the increasing number of Shadow Monsters outside the city, the priest of the Death God Temple said with an ugly expression.

The Dwarf Temple Master looked uncertain, but she could only shake her head,

“I’m afraid… there’s no way. I had previously channeled the power of the True God, and in the short term, I cannot borrow it again… It will take at least a month to recover.”

“What?!”

The Death God priest’s face turned pale.

Meanwhile, hearing the dark dwarves’ conversation, Little Xian Miao, who was restoring her magic power nearby, was moved.

She thought for a moment, looked around, then found a figure wielding a large sword.

She stood up, jogged over to someone’s back, and shouted,

“Demacia, quickly ask El to summon the Goddess’s incarnation!”

“The Goddess’s incarnation?”

Demacia was taken aback.

“That’s right, the number of Shadow Armies is too large now, and we definitely can’t win. The defense shield looks like it’s about to give in; we can only seek help!”

Little Xian Miao said.

Demacia listened, smiling bitterly,

“I’m afraid not… When I came, I asked El, and during the time we subdued the Spider Queen Rose in Rivendell, he had already summoned the Goddess’s incarnation once. It can’t be summoned again for a while.”

“Spider Queen Rose?”

Little Xian Miao’s eyes sparkled again,

“That will work too! Quickly call Spider Queen Rose! She is so powerful, and together with so many Earth Cave Spiders, they definitely can fight!”

“It’s no use… Even Brother Mu’s favor with her is just barely positive, and mine is negative; at this level, I can’t call her out…”

Demacia shook his head.

Little Xian Miao: “…”

“However…”

Demacia’s tone shifted, glancing at the Death God Temple,

“There’s someone else who should be able to borrow the Goddess’s power.”

“Who?”

Little Xian Miao perked up.

“Previously, I saw Ling enter the Death God Temple; isn’t she also a Divine Favored? And she seems even closer to the Goddess… If El can summon the True God’s incarnation, she definitely can too!”

Demacia said.

However, after saying so, he shook his head again,

“But if the Goddess’s incarnation takes action, it would certainly be an instant kill, and we can’t farm monsters for experience.”

“Experience can wait! At this rate, Black Rock City is about to collapse; finishing the task is more important!”

Little Xian Miao said.

“True enough… According to the nature of ‘Elf Kingdom,’ if the Shadow Monsters really break in, Black Rock City might actually be erased by the authorities…”

Demacia’s expression also grew solemn.

“Yeah! It’s challenging enough to encounter a friendly force, and I haven’t finished playing in Black Rock City yet!”

“However, this mission didn’t provide a prompt for summoning the Goddess’s incarnation, and I wonder if the NPC will act.”

“We must give it a try! I’ll go to the Death God Temple and ask! I heard the dwarves’ conversation just now; it could be a task prompt!”

Little Xian Miao said this and ran towards the Death God Temple.

…

Eve had no idea that after the discussion, the players planned to rely on her for the solution.

At that moment, she was still engrossed in researching the dungeon core.

However, a True God was still a True God. Although the structure of the dungeon core was extraordinarily complex, under Eve’s probing and deduction, she gradually sketched a complete central design in her mind.

Furthermore, some clever ideas designed within the core inspired her to come up with new ideas for using her divine power.

If she used Demigod Level power at this moment, Eve felt she could maintain it for a longer period.

Moreover, even maintaining the Demigod Level incarnation, Eve felt she could reduce consumption substantially.

This greatly satisfied Eve.

At this point, she also noticed that the energy consumption of the central core in her hand began to soar…

“Hmm?”

Eve furrowed her brows, refocusing half of her attention outside the city, where she was stunned by the sight of the army,

“Are they insane? How did they summon so many Shadow Creatures?”

She could feel the rate at which she was consuming power in the dungeon core had surpassed the gains players provided by killing Shadow Monsters.

“A loss,”

Eve’s face darkened slightly.

Although she could continue to maintain the spell shield and could say that even more Shadow Monsters couldn’t possibly break through Black Rock City’s defenses with her full activation, nevertheless…

A loss.

“No, the number of Shadow Monsters is increasing, but the players are too few. Continuing to rely on them for depletion is a losing strategy; perhaps I should take action.” *She pondered over the dungeon core and had some ideas she wanted to test, concluded that now she could likely save much of her divine power by using a Demigod Level of power.*

*Given the vast number of Shadow Armies, she should at least break even or make a slight profit.*

Still, Eve felt somewhat regretful,

*”If there were enough players, I wouldn’t need to take action this time. Letting them kill all the Shadow Monsters would be a huge gain—not only training troops but allowing me to absorb power. Alas…”*

Eve shook her head.

*She decided in her heart that once this task was over, the third summoning of players had to be prioritized.*

The number of players now was really stretched thin!

*”But I don’t need to act in such a rush this time. Let’s wait a bit longer; the potential of the opponent’s summoning array doesn’t seem exhausted yet. I’ll act when no more Shadow Creatures emerge!”*

*”Moreover… I need a pretext for intervening; it shouldn’t be too abrupt to take action.”*

Eve pondered.

Just then, a familiar figure stumbled in; it was Little Xian Miao, who decided to seek NPC support!

“Lord Ling, Lord Ling, the number of Shadow Creatures outside suddenly surged; the situation is very unfavorable; can you summon the Goddess’s incarnation?”

Guided by the dark dwarves, she ran all the way to Eve in the temple’s rear hall, gasping for breath as she asked.

Looking at Little Xian Miao, who was standing before her, Eve was slightly stunned.

*So… did she even bring about an excuse for me to appear?*

…

Outside Black Rock City.

Looking at the crowded Shadow Monsters they summoned, the Dark Believers were filled with fear and awe.

At the same time, they couldn’t help but feel immense excitement,

“Black Rock City is finished.”

“Unexpectedly… By completely activating all the magic stones, the summoning effect was actually magnified several times…”

“If that’s the case, why did Master Hearthstone ask us to summon steadily over time?”

“No idea…”

“I’ve heard that it might attract even more powerful entities…”

“However, it appears we are still lucky; the summoned monsters this time are all Iron Grade.”

“I think we can withdraw now; the number of Shadow Creatures is vaguely beyond our control…”

The Believers whispered among themselves.

And hearing his subordinates, the leader of the Dark Believers nodded,

“Don’t worry too much; the summoning has reached its end. At this point, no more powerful Shadow Creatures will be attracted.”

“Once these energy pillars begin to weaken, we’ll issue the final charge to the shadow army and then shut down the array.”

Just as he finished speaking, the entire ground suddenly shook again!

Everyone felt a chilling and heart-stopping energy descending into the Deep Rift Cave…

The leader of the Dark Believers’ expression became wooden.

He slowly raised his head and saw the largest energy pillar in front suddenly start to tremble violently.

With a roar that shook the skies, a massive claw wrapped in grey-black smoke suddenly extended from within.

A terrifying power instantly shredded the smoke to pieces—warping and tearing even the surrounding space with its might!

Afterward, an existence far larger and more terrifying than ordinary Shadow Creatures began to emerge from the torn space…

Its gargantuan bat wings, the robust body enveloped in grey-black smoke, and the chilling aura of pressure.

“A… a Shadow Dragon?!”

Seeing the massive shadow overhead, the leader of the Dark Believers momentarily lost his voice.
