Chapter 714: Chapter 386: Landing on the Island
From several kilometers away, one can see the enormous trunk of the Elf Divine Tree.
The thick branches are like mountain ranges, with leaves and clouds surrounding them.
It stands like a mighty pillar between the sea and the sky.
Upon seeing the Divine Tree for the first time, Li Changhe was greatly astonished by its massive size.
"It’s truly a marvelous existence. It is said that the original elves were born from the Divine Tree, much like our own Lady Nuwa." He Feng, who was observing the distant Divine Tree through a telescope, said, "Judging by the average elf’s appearance, the Divine Tree is a master at creating beauty."
It is true, the elves are all quite good-looking. Beautiful to the point where gender is indistinguishable.
Li Changhe had seen many beautiful women before. Ya Tou, Brother Ting, Chen Yu, and Bai Luohe were all attractive women.
Of course, for Li Changhe, the most beautiful was always Ya Tou, be it elves or other women.
However, the elves were unrealistically beautiful. Both men and women of the elven race were tall and slender. Coupled with their far more extended lifespans and innate abilities compared to humans.
This also meant there were no unattractive elves, since everyone looked great.
According to the elf player, Mo Zhu, they had been admiring high levels of beauty for hundreds of years, and it had become tiresome. Elves with slightly lower attractiveness might be more popular.
The black-clothed girl they had previously spoken with seemed quite nice. She even wanted Li Changhe to keep changing her appearance. It seemed there was a reason why the elves were in such a miserable state.
The Divine Tree truly created an extraordinary race.
Unfortunately, it is now being dragged into a dangerous situation by the very race it created.
Rorodoa is forcibly extracting the strength of the General through the Divine Tree, causing both the Elf Divine Tree and the elves to face catastrophe.
After analyzing the situation, the players were certain.
The General’s condition was not good, as it could only turn the Divine Tree into bronze as a counterattack for the time being.
There were just two possible outcomes.
Either the Divine Tree would kill the General before being entirely transformed into bronze.
Or the General would kill the Divine Tree before being drained.
The Elf Divine Tree and the elves were closely connected. It was uncertain what would happen to the elves if the Divine Tree were to die.
"Rorodoa is truly a dutiful son." Li Changhe thought as he observed every detail of the Elf Island with his Hawk Eye Magic Eye at its full capacity.
Elf Island was large, not the small island they had imagined. It also had lakesides, mountain ranges, and dense forests.
There were ports and cities along the coastline. If one went deeper through the dense forests, they would be able to see the elf capital and Rorodoa’s location.
The port was extremely prosperous, filled with many shops and houses.
After all, Elf Island was situated in the middle of the ocean.
It was a necessary resting place for many fleets, which brought prosperity to the elves’ ports.
However, now the once-prosperous port was filled with tension before the war.
After finding Xiao Ye, Rorodoa immediately issued the highest state of war readiness.
From that moment on, they would destroy any ship that dared to approach Elf Island.
Annihilate any creatures that dared to set foot on Elf Island, whether they were elves or humans.
As a result, the stationed elves fortified every port.
When the Dawn Investigation Team’s fleet appeared on the horizon, the elves prepared to attack with their cannons.
Several defense lines were designed: coastal artillery formations, city street battles, and guerrilla combat in the jungle.
Even if a large army were to invade, breaking through such defenses would come at a heavy price.
Those who followed Rorodoa were mostly old soldiers who had fought humans hundreds of years ago.
After witnessing how humans treated elves, their hostility towards humanity was nearly endless (from the war between humans and elves 500 years ago).
Even when they learned of Rorodoa’s horrifying plan, they still chose to follow him.
They believed that after acquiring new strength, their Great Sage would lead the elves to new heights, rather than listening to the opposing faction’s talk of ’annihilation’.
Seeing the dense array of cannons, most of the members of the fleet changed their expressions.
However, the elf Bai Cang said, "Keep moving forward; they cannot stop us."
Meanwhile, in the Elf Island port command center.
Looking at the battle-hungry elves who shouted for rebel forces and humans to never return, some sighing elves quietly tied black cloth around their arms as a mark to identify their comrades.
Then they raised their weapons against their own kinsfolk, who were bellowing victorious roars.
In an instant, the sound of battle echoed throughout the port.
As the Dawn Investigation Team’s warships advanced at full speed and entered the attack range of the cannons, not a single cannon fired a shot.
The adventurers could see the elves with black cloth tied around their arms on the port, silently watching the fleet while covered in blood.
Before the supporters could fire their cannons, they had killed most of them. Before the rear troops could react, the investigation team’s warships entered the Elf Island port without any damage.
On the ship, an elf sighed, "The coastal defense line has been destroyed. We can safely move forward."
Nobody on the deck spoke, even the adventurers who had previously harbored hatred for the elves were moved by their decision.
The elves’ tone was so calm, but it carried the weight of sorrow and the smell of blood.
In order to kill Rorodoa, those supporters had to be eliminated. This stained their hands with the blood of too many of their own kind.
No matter whether Rorodoa was successfully killed or not, the losses to the elves would be significant.
With their low birth rate and sparse population, who knew how many fighting elves would remain after the battle.
"Rorodoa’s main body is still in the tree house under the Divine Tree, together with the Guardian Xiao Ye."
"He has the ability to create five clones at most. Since he has five parallel consciousnesses, each clone has an independent consciousness. It is relatively easy to identify the clones since he often sends them to manage things on the island."
"At that time, he split into five clones and killed twenty-two elf players at the cost of nearly a hundred deaths." Bai Cang continued, "The strength of the clones is almost the same as the main body, and they also possess immortality. However, after Li Ba killed one of his clones, that clone never appeared again. It is suspected that the parallel consciousness of that clone was killed as well, but it is not ruled out whether he can differentiate more parallel consciousnesses."
"Currently, Rorodoa is setting up a ceremony. Our allies hidden among them believe that he is extracting Xiao Ye’s guardian abilities without killing her. His remaining four clones are with the Divine Tree guard force in the main city. They have not launched any attacks on us."
"It’s quite normal. Li killed one of his clones. Before Li reveals his location, he won’t act rashly. He will always have a backup plan," He Feng said, "But similarly, when facing Li, the only one who can kill him, he will undoubtedly use all his strength and is bound to use lethal attacks."
"And we can take advantage of his caution," Chen Yu said with a light laugh, "When facing an enemy that can threaten him yet must be killed, he will inadvertently ignore our existence."
