Game of the World Tree-Chapter 356

Players had long been accustomed to fighting goblins.

After all, Goblins were among the first mobs that players had encountered at the beginning. Moreover, the succeeding second and third beta players also often fought these creatures, as they can be seen using some ruins around the Elven Forest as their shelter.

As such, the official forums were filled with relevant posts detailing strategies on how to swiftly deal with these cowardly and cunning creatures in a efficient manner.

By this point, most of the veteran players have accumulated enough experience through countless battles that they can anticipate enemy movements with precision. Even when facing creatures other than goblins, their tactical prowess shines through, enabling them to adapt swiftly and effectively to any foe.

In this battlefield, there is no trace of fear among anyone, particularly since the enemy they’re fighting against are weak.

Hence, it wasn’t surprising that the tide of the battle suddenly shifted as the elves charged up like madmen, relentlessly hacking at any goblins they came across, swiftly pushing them back down the walls…

Throughout the vicinity of the city walls, similar events unfolded, with goblins mercilessly slain in the sections where the Elves appeared.

Even as the goblins tried to resist, the elves ignored their attacks, focusing only on eradicating them. They completely disregarded the incoming sword and dagger attacks, except when aimed at their vital spots.

Pain and fear of death seemed entirely nonexistent to any of them as every elf was singularly focused on their task of killing goblins with ruthless efficiency.

Moreover, among the ranks of elves, there were some individuals donning magnificent heavy armor.

They resembled hulking monsters masquerading as people, wielding their giant swords or steel axes as they rampaged among the goblins.

Some weaker goblins were even knocked down by them, before being crushed under the weight of their armor…

These players clad in full armor were the tanks, specializing in defense and melee combat, and the very sight of them massacring the goblins whilst laughing hysterically with some even casually counting and comparing kills is what greeted Chief Brein when he arrived at the city walls.

Seeing such a surreal sight sent shivers down his spine…

T-This…

This was just too brutal, wasn’t it?!

Were these fellows… really elves?

Brein’s mind was filled with shock at the absurdity of this scene.

However, his initial feelings of shock came and went abruptly. After a brief moment of terror, Brein’s mood was quickly replaced by exhilaration.

The combat prowess of these elves far exceeded his expectations!

Though they were weaker individually, their coordination was impeccable, indicating extensive combat experience.

More importantly, they seemed entirely fearless, even relishing in the carnage of the battlefield!

While they initially appeared lax when he first saw them, they transformed into rabid wolves once the battle began, displaying remarkable coordination and discipline.

After observing for a while, Brein also noticed that these elves were not fighting chaotically like he initially thought. They understood the importance of teamwork and knew when to rest, as if guided by some unseen hand.

However, the weird thing is that despite craning his neck for a while, Brein still couldn’t find their supposed elf commander.

In fact, Li Mu, who claimed to be their field commander, was hiding behind the crowd, hurling vine spells at the goblins while shouting commands, but his voice was easily drowned in the chaos of battle…

Such a presence couldn’t possibly command all the elves currently active within the battlefield.

Brein couldn’t understand it all;

Ultimately, he could only attribute this to the inherent nature of these elves as naturally born warriors!

Of course, what Brein was unaware of is that every player at that moment was connected to the GC channel, attentively listening to Li Mu’s impassioned commands while am invigorating battle BGM played in the background.

For the players, these goblins giving platry amounts of experience were simply adorable, and this overwhelming one-sided battle was incredibly exhilarating.

Who wouldn’t love such kind of easygoing situation!

The more they fought, the more enjoyable it became, and the better they performed!

In fact, this initial wave of elven reinforcements marked only the beginning. Over time, an increasing number of newer elves kept on arriving, as their shouts and howls echoed widely throughout the battlefield.

These new arrivals surged towards the enemy like ravenous wolves, eager to partake in the feast of slaughter, whilst the number of elves on the city walls kept increasing at a visible rate.

Over time, even Brein also observed that certain areas had been entirely taken over by the elves, with the dwarves and gnomes who initially defended these areas now pushed to the sidelines, as if they’ve been reduced to mere spectators.

Their numbers keep on increasing, and despite some individuals perishing in battle, their fallen comrades received little to no acknowledgment nor care from the rest of the elves.

This blatant disregard for life and death left Brein utterly stunned but at the same time, also filled him with incredulous awe…

These elves…are actually quite suitable to be followers of their Patron Deity, the Goddess of Death!

At this moment, he finally understood why Her Majesty’s oracle had foretold that these elves were the key to their side’s victory.

If they all possessed such impeccable collective strength, and coupled with their cooperation of the Hermetic Alliance warriors, Blade City would definitely survive just as long as they persevered and prevented the stronger members of the Dark Alliance from breaking through the city’s defensive barrier.

Brein took a deep breath and joined the battlefield.

While chanting some spells, he also commanded the dwarven and gnome soldiers on the city walls.

As if to confirm Brein’s thoughts, the goblins finally succumbed amidst the elves’ frenzied slaughter not long after.

In the end, these Goblins were not battle hardened warriors.

When their casualties reached a terrifying number, these cannon fodders were frightened out of their courage as one by one, the Goblins either turned around and fled or knelt down and begged for mercy…

Alas, the elves were utterly merciless and kept on the pursuit, attacking them regardless with wanton slaughter.

For players, there was no mercy on the battlefield.

And soon, all the goblins who managed to climb onto the city walls were either killed on the spot, pushed down by the disoriented crowd, or simply turned and jumped off the wall, their fate unknown.

Outside the city walls, the number of goblins also dwindled as their casualties kept increasing.

Eventually, the goblins fleeing soon triggered a chain reaction, causing the entire goblin army to collapse…

However, at that moment, when the entire Goblin forces seemed to be completely routed, another loud roar echoed from the army of the Dark Alliance.

The ground trembled once more as the dark army once again began to move.

Countless skeletons, their armor glinting with spectral flames burning in their eye sockets, organized themselves into disciplined formations. Guided by the silent directives of their commanding Death Knights, they surged forward in an ominous advance towards Blade city.

One by one, they assaulted the fleeing goblins as the Undead Legion initiated its attack.

With each step forward, the bodies of the fallen goblins unexpectedly revived one after another…

These unfortunate souls that was slain beyond the walls, seconds later transformed into undead, bolstering the Dark Alliance’s forces.
