Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 1155 - 766: Faith and Bonds

The Black Dragon roared, the cannon fire thundered.

Ye Ye followed in the footsteps of his teammates, under the hoarse and exhausted command of Li Mu, unleashed the warrior’s Cross Slash skill, striking down yet another demon that charged forward.

Then, he took a breath, quickly retreated, and let the second wave of players, who were prepared with skills, step forward to unleash their abilities anew.

Like this, the players intertwined, cooperating with each other.

Wave after wave, they formed an impenetrable wall of flesh and blood on the vast plain, resisting the invasion of the demons.

And behind them on the actual wall, accompanied by the roar of Magic Crystal Cannons and the flinging of catapults, arrows rained down like a storm from the ranged players, and the Mage players cast powerful Magic.

Under the cover of artillery, magic, and arrows, the demons fell like wheat, yet more demons surged forward like an endless tide, trampling over the bodies and equipment of their predecessors, engaging with the players in combat.

The clouds in the sky grew thicker, and the silhouette of Black Dragon Mairrel flashed continuously in the clouds, battling against the Demon Monarch.

Meanwhile, on the ground, the coalition army led by players and the Demon Army’s battle reached its climax.

Half a month had passed since the second grand battle.

A cavalry force of up to a hundred thousand had already been depleted by the fifth day of the war.

Even the support troops from various forces suffered massive casualties.

Except for the Elf Army specially protected by the players and the fearless Heroic Spirit Army, the reinforcements from the Dark Alliance, the warriors of the Dwarf Kingdom, mercenaries and knights from Fengyue Free Territory, had suffered over half casualties...

The aerial forces led by dragons and Zeppelin airships also suffered heavy losses in their engagements with Winged Demons, with nearly a third of the dragons forever lost on the battlefield, and over eighty percent of players permanently losing their Flying Magical Beast companions.

However, this brutal price did not extinguish the players’ will to fight.

Instead, it awakened the bloodlust deep within their souls.

Is the mission tough?

No.

They... just want to complete it!

Even if it means sleeplessness, even if it means paying any price, they vow to fight until the moment of victory!

No one went to the forums to rant about Sima’s lousy planning anymore.

Even the posts on the official forum that harshly criticized the planners after the first battle’s failure gradually cooled down.

In their stead, posts of encouragement and records of players sharing their battle emotions emerged.

All posts shared a common resolve.

To inspire each other, to keep fighting...

At this moment, the players became entangled with this war mission.

They did not believe that a wall of human flesh composed of millions couldn’t hold back these abyssal monsters.

They did not believe that five years of preparation in the game wouldn’t unite them as one to defeat the invading demons!

Half a month in the game translated to three days on Blue Planet.

Even though General Commander Li Mu deliberately chose the date to fall during the National Day holiday, for most players, it was time to log off for a break after continuous days of battle.

Yet over eighty percent of nearly a million players across the server persisted.

The higher-ups of many guilds were already advising the fiercest fighting players to take breaks, to balance work and rest.

However, almost no one left.

The players unanimously decided to remain stationed on the battlefield. When exhaustion overcame them, they quietly retreated to the back of the line, took a quick rest in the game, and immediately returned to the fight afterward!

Fight, fight, until death.

And after revival, they would unhesitatingly rejoin the close-combat troops, clashing with the demons once more... 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Their reckless ferocity, that unwavering belief, deeply moved the reinforcements from each supporting faction.

After this battle, who knows how many tales of the Elf Chosen Ones will spread throughout Segis World, and how many ballads recounting this brutal battle will be sung by minstrels...

The ground had long been stained dark red with blood, the destroyed armors of demons scattered across the battlefield.

But this time, few cared to collect these pieces of Abyss Equipment.

The rewards were no longer important.

The equipment was no longer important.

Even their levels were no longer important.

At this moment, there was only one thought in everyone’s minds, and that was to hold back these demons before them!

The shared goal, the soaring morale, strengthened the players’ cohesion evermore...

The ongoing flames of war, day after day of combat, united the players even closer...

They were like a sharp sword forged by fiery flames, made sharper and tougher by the baptism of war, finally undergoing transformation through thousands of trials and tribulations.

And the friendship and bonds between them deepened and continuously elevated as the battle persisted.

Former enemies forgave past grievances with a smile, fighting shoulder to shoulder on the battlefield.

Former opponents walked arm in arm, encouraging one another, advancing wave after wave.

This unprecedented grand battle smoothed over the conflicts between different guilds, quenching the vendettas between different players.

At this moment, they were comrades with a common goal, they were warriors protecting their homeland!

The majestic battle songs echoed beside them, and the players’ hearts were ablaze with fervor.

If before the war began, many wanted to become heroes, at this moment, they had already achieved it.

With unity and indomitable resolve...

In the eyes of the people of Fengyue Territory, in the hearts of the supporting elves, each one of them was a fearless hero!
