Chapter 1967: Get Out Of The Wind Forest Right Now!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The clash of swords and magic. In the situation where the scary magical storm couldn’t occur, the knights did have a chance to defend themselves.
After charging with disregard for the cost, the four troops of cavalry reached the magical barrier. They started to ram that barrier crazily.
The steel eagle troop also rammed the barrier from the sky, and they slowly converged towards the Tree of Life in the center of the City of Life.
Their objective was clearly the Tree of Life, which was the holy tree that symbolized the elves’ soul. Destroying it would destroy the elves’ confidence.
The protection barrier, without anyone managing it, became fragile under the impact.
The elves in the City of Life watched the barrier that could shatter any time worriedly. More and more elves went onto the streets to join in the defense of the city.
“The elven race will cease to exist if we fail to protect the Tree of Life.” Snarr stood on a rooftop, and looked up at the steel eagle troop that was crazily ramming into the barrier above the Tree of Life. He leaped off the rooftop, and dashed towards the Tree of Life.
At the same time, Sally also turned around and dashed towards the Tree of Life. Patton could continue to direct the elves to defend the city if the barrier broke down, but she would become the elven race’s sinner if the Tree of Life was destroyed.
Plop…
A gentle pop that sounded a bubble bursting.
That barrier that covered the entire City of Life popped. The sky suddenly cleared up.
Both sides were taken aback, and they immediately engaged in a terrible melee.
The steel eagle troop in the sky was also no longer obstructed. They ignored the arrows that were flying towards them from the ground, and dashed towards the Tree of Life without any care.
Their mission was to destroy the Tree of Life. Whoever achieved that would be greatly rewarded after they returned!
The huge tree that was over a few hundreds meters tall had hanging branches like a willow, and glowed with a faint green light. It was mysterious and holy, and its branches swayed gently as if it was alive. It was amazing.
“Destroy it!” the commander of the steel eagle troop yelled, and led the charge, dashing downwards at the Tree of Life.
“No!” all the elves exclaimed. Countless arrows shot at those steel eagles from all directions. The steel eagles converging over the Tree of Life decreased by half.
However, as they charged at all costs, dozens of steel eagles still managed to swoop towards the Tree of Life quickly.
Pessimism and devastation rose in the elves’ hearts. Was the Tree of Life that had survived the racial war going to be destroyed now?
This was the holy tree that could communicate with the Goddess of Life, the source of the Spring of Life, and the spiritual symbol of the elven race.
The knights held their longswords up high, and the steel eagles spread out their sharp wings. They would leave their names in the history books when they destroyed this tree.
“Little tree, whip them!” Right then, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
The Tree of Life, which was only beaming with a faint green light, suddenly lit up brightly. The gently swaying branches suddenly rose up like whips, creating vague cracks in space before landing on those swooping steel eagles downward.
Slap! Slap! Slap!
Crisp sounds reverberated throughout the sky. The huge steel eagles were actually sent flying by the soft branches, and crashed to the ground.
Just like swatting flies, the hundreds of steel eagles that were flying and swooping around in the sky all crashed to the ground along with their riders, who were knocked out.
A golden light flashed, and a figure in a long white dress appeared above the Tree of Life. Her silvery hair drifted in the wind, and her exquisite face was icy cold.
“It’s Princess Irina!”
“Princess Irina is back!”
The elves, who still hadn’t recovered from the shock of the Tree of Life’s sudden attack, broke out in cheers when they saw Irina, who appeared suddenly.
The protection barrier was already gone, and the City of Life had descended into an all-out melee.
The Roth Empire’s knights displayed their extremely tough side in the area of close combat. They forced the elves’ allied forces to retreat continuously. The elves’ forces were at the breaking point.
And at this crucial moment, Irina immediately became the savior in all the elves’ hearts when she appeared in the City of Life.
Sally halted her footsteps, and looked at Irina, who appeared above the Tree of Life. She, too, had an elated expression. The Tree of Life was fine, and the elven race finally had someone to depend on.
“Princess!” Snarr halted his footsteps too, and looked at Irina with joy in his eyes. She really came.
“What’s she doing here?” However, there were also some elves looking at Irina with shock and doubts. If Irina called upon the Night Elves to attack them at this critical time, it would make matters worse.
“Why is Irina here?!” Iman was equally shocked. He was prepared for Helena to return, but he didn’t expect that the first to arrive was Irina. He quickly looked around him at the same time, wanting to know if Alex came too.
Irina hovered in midair as she surveyed the City of Life, which had battles in every corner. She watched those elves joining the defensive on their own accord. Apart from being shocked, there was also anger flashing in her eyes.
She raised her magic caster’s staff, and Holy Light lit up the entire City of Life.
The elven warriors and the Roth Empire’s knights were forcefully separated by the Holy Light.
The Tree of Life’s branches swayed gently, and a faint green light converged above her head, providing her with an even greater enhancement effect.
Irina stared at Iman from afar, and coldly ordered, “Get out of the Wind Forest right now!”
Iman looked at Irina with tightly furrowed brows.
“General, the advance troops of the garrison have arrived. We have to retreat now. There are two other unknown elven troops approaching from other directions,” a deputy general whispered in his ear.
At the same time, three flying steeds quickly flew over from the horizon. Their imposing aura clearly showed their identities.
Iman’s determination to fight to the death was completely destroyed. He gravely ordered, “Set off the signal. Retreat!”
The red signal flare rose into the air, and the knights that were attacking the City of Life from four directions rapidly turned their horses around and retreated.
“We won!!!”
The elves’ cheers instantly reverberated throughout the air above the City of Life. Their faces were filled with joy.
They hugged one another to celebrate this victory, despite the differences in their identities.
“These bastards!” Helena’s flying steed finally reached the sky above the City of Life. Her face turned dark when she saw the ruined city.
“It wasn’t the lords whom you designated that saved the City of Life. It was these common elves.” Irina looked at Helena, and said in a mocking tone, “You guys threw away what was the most precious to the elves when you set that ridiculous policy back then. You have forgotten about it, but they didn’t. Hence, they stepped forward once again.”
Helena looked at those common elves, who were covered in blood.. Those elves of different statuses and wearing different clothes were standing together, but they looked so cohesive, and their smiles were so down-to-earth. Just like back then…
