The Invincible Overlord of Heroes.
Chapter 748 The continuation of life
After a busy day, Xu Lai had no choice but to call it a day.
As the main fighters today, the Seraphim had consumed a lot of physical energy, especially those who released the Great Light Spell.
The knights did not participate much in the battle. Even the horses could not run in the forest, and the knights could not charge at all.
The Paladin is a type of soldier that is stronger in defense than attack. If he cannot charge, his killing efficiency will be very touching.
However, thanks to the outburst of the Seraphim, Xu Lai still gained a lot from his outing today.
In addition to the destruction of several dark sky curtains, a total of tens of thousands of undead of all kinds were killed.
Among them, there are nearly a thousand high-level undead, including a vampire duke.
The rest are mostly mid-level or above undead.
Of course, due to the special nature of the undead, low-level undead are almost worthless, and mid-level undead are only one-tenth of humans or elves, or even less.
Only high-level undead are considered relatively precious, even among the undead, and cannot be sacrificed casually.
All in all, even though Xu Lai’s gains from this trip were not great and the damage to the undead was not that great, the boost to morale was incomparable.
Before Xu Lai appeared, the elves had already been defeated. Even though they relied on cities for defense, they lost more and more cities.
As long as Xu Lai attacks, even if there is no result, as long as he comes back intact and safely, it will be a huge victory for the elves.
Not only did Xu Lai come back intact, he also destroyed the dark sky surrounding Shenmu City, allowing the elves to see the light again.
The absence of sunlight cannot kill people, but it can suffocate people to death.
So when Xu Lai re-entered the city, all the elves in the city, including high-level elves such as Yin Mu, were all cheering for Xu Lai.
Xu Lai responded with a smile, but in reality, he couldn't smile in his heart.
No one knew what conspiracy the undead were plotting, and the elves were in a completely passive state, unable to obtain any intelligence.
If this continues, no matter what the undead's conspiracy is, as long as they continue to squeeze the elves' living space, the elves will eventually not be able to escape the fate of destruction.
On the way back, Xu Lai kept thinking about the elves' way to survive.
How can he defeat the undead when the undead are unwilling to fight and he and the human troops cannot stay in the elves' territory for a long time?
Obviously, there was no good way to do this. The only thing Xu Lai could think of was to force the undead to fight him.
This is not easy when the undead actively avoid fighting.
If there is no hope of winning, the undead can even give up the dark sky.
The long-awaited victory led the elves to spontaneously organize a celebratory dinner.
After coming to this world for so long, Xu Lai finally saw one of the most beautiful and spectacular scenery in the world.
Hundreds of carefully selected beautiful elves sang and danced around Xu Lai, the most important guest.
The elves' already extremely beautiful faces, when paired with various sexy outfits, are extremely pleasing to the eye.
Even though Xu Lai had seen many beauties, he couldn't hold out for long in such a situation.
In order to avoid making a fool of himself, Xu Lai left the dinner party early.
Rena, Gisele and others were about to leave together but were stopped by Xu Lai.
Between them, one had not been back home for a long time, and the other was curious about everything about elves.
Xu Lai kept them, but took away Cui Sili, Yin Mu and other high-ranking elves who stayed in Shenmu City.
“Unfortunately, we were unable to find Sandro this time.
Elder Yinmu, I hope you can remind the other elf heroes who are responsible for guarding in time.
If Sandro is not there, the flag will be left to Mordor.
He is probably leading the elite undead to launch surprise attacks on other elven cities."
Yin Mu nodded quickly and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Your Majesty. I will pass your reminder to the other heroes in time.
However, Shenmu City is the last insurance to guard the World Tree, and the defense forces of the four Shenmu Cities are the most powerful.
The heroes responsible for guarding the other three cities are also very capable.
To the southeast is the dwarven prince Oradin, who possesses the dual specialties of anti-magic and dwarven.
Brun, the Pegasus Knight in the southwest, is good at commanding Pegasus Knights and is the strongest air force hero of the elves.
To the northwest is Fisher, the "Unicorn Girl," whose specialty is unicorns.
After General Reina disappeared, the title of Shield of the Barrier was inherited by General Fisher.
Now, in addition to Her Majesty the Queen of the Royal Court, they also have Ivo's mobile force reinforcement, and they have also transferred a lot of troops from us.
With your reminder, if Sandro succeeds in doing this, it will really be God's will to destroy our elves."
Xu Lai shook his head and said, "Elder, there is no need to be so pessimistic. In my opinion, the combat effectiveness of the undead is actually very weak.
Whatever Sandro wants to do, I think it's a good opportunity for him to be away now."
"Opportunity, what kind of opportunity?" Tracy interrupted quickly.
Although Cuisili is the first ranger general, she is not a hero or an elf elder after all, so she originally had some concerns.
But when she heard Xu talking about the opportunity, she couldn't wait to jump out.
“The greatest advantage of the undead is their endless numbers.
If we keep fighting at their pace, even the strongest troops will eventually be dragged down and exhausted.
After all, we are not robots. As the saying goes, if you defend for too long, you will lose. No one can guarantee that they will never make mistakes.
But you also said that Shenmu City is the last insurance of the World Tree.
Once something goes wrong, this insurance policy disappears.
At that time, everyone will be the sinner of the barrier."
"Then according to your Majesty's wishes, what should we do?
Don't worry, as long as you don't ask us to give up Shenmu City, all the elves in the city will obey your orders completely."
Xu Lai touched his chin and said, “What I mean is that there is really no space now.
There is no room for mistakes, no room for survival, no room for movement.
I think we should not continue to follow the pace of the undead, we must break the deadlock and take the initiative. "
The elf elder Yin Mu frowned and said, “It is a good thing that His Majesty the King has the confidence to fight the undead outside.
But judging from today's battle situation, the undead will actively avoid us and not fight us."
“So, we have to force them to attack us.
To achieve this goal, the undead must feel that they can gain an advantage, or they must think that it is necessary.
If the elves are willing to throw out a worthy bait, I don’t think it would be hard to accomplish.”
"Just tell us directly what you want us elves to do." Yin Mu said with a wry smile.
"I want you to go out and build a city, or retake the city that was previously occupied by the undead. On the one hand, it will expand the living space and increase the tolerance.
Secondly, it will force the undead to fight us. I don’t believe that the undead can watch us build a new city.
If they can tolerate even this, then we will just keep building cities outwards.
Although the cost is a bit high, it can after all establish a relatively safe space for activities and living.
The elders also know that your royal court can no longer bear such a huge burden at this time.
If you don't find a way to save yourselves, you won't be able to hold on for long even if the undead don't attack you.
Humans can help you temporarily, but you cannot count on them for your whole life.
Even if I don't mind, the human subjects won't agree, and they can't always bear the burden of the other camp.
Sorry, I'm just telling the truth."
“It’s true, you have nothing to apologize for.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
If we were the elves, we would not be willing to bear the burden of an extra camp.
The elves retreated all the way, but they withdrew a lot of supplies.
But that was prepared for rebuilding homes in the future, and the quantity was not large.
If we lose even these, the elves will completely lose their future."
"Let me be frank. If the elves want to see the future, they must at least have the present, right?"
It is understandable that the elves want to save some resources for the future.
It’s like when there’s a famine, people would rather starve to death than grow crops.
However, the premise of not planting crops is that there will still be people to plant and harvest next year.
But if there is no one to plant crops next year, no matter how much crops are left, they will not grow legs and run into the fields to grow.
Even if it really grows legs, no one will come to pick it when it is ripe, so what is the point of saving it for seed?
Besides, Xu Lai is not an elf, and the few resources that the elves worked so hard to snatch back from the undead have nothing to do with Xu Lai.
He is like a son selling his father's land without feeling sorry. If the elf takes a big gamble, it will be the fastest and most in line with his interests.
Moreover, even if this suggestion was rejected by the elves, it would not be a loss for Xu Lai.
Even if you want to leave at that time, this will also be a reason and an excuse.
After all, he was the king of eagles, not the king of elves.
He was able to personally lead the team to come for support, and also personally lead the team out for adventure and battle to boost morale, which was definitely enough to repay the elves' favor.
But unfortunately, I don’t know whether the elf thinks what Xu Lai said makes sense, or thinks that he can’t give Xu Lai an excuse or an opportunity.
In short, even Xu Lai didn't think Yin Mu would agree to the proposal, but he actually slapped his thigh and agreed.
Not only did he agree, he also said that he wanted to make a quick decision and set off tomorrow.
Yin Mu wanted to take advantage of the fact that Xu Lai was still there and ask Xu Lai to take action again so that the great god Lena could stay to defend Shenmu City.
Otherwise, if Xu Lai, currently the strongest hero, leaves, the elves will be even more uncertain.
This was Xu Lai's own proposal. Xu Lai had no way of refusing, nor did he want to refuse.
Early the next morning, Xu Lai regrouped his troops, but this time in addition to his own troops and rangers, there were also many tree people.
These are not ordinary tree people. Each one is an ancient tree spirit that has lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years.
Of course, the ancient tree spirits who have truly lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years are only a small part of them, probably only a few hundred, and the rest are recruited.
Even though these ancient tree spirits are of a high level, their movement speed is still very slow.
These tree spirits packed up at daybreak and set off as soon as Xu Lai got up.
After Xu Lai had breakfast, organized his troops, and brought a large number of elves and rangers, these tree spirits just stepped into the forest.
Bringing these tree spirits along will be of great use.
The forest outside Shenmu City belongs to the Green Forest. Polluted by the massive odor of corpses of the undead, it is not much different from a life forbidden zone.
However, the pollution of the undead is only temporary. Although the Green Forest cannot directly enjoy the protection of the World Tree like the Emerald Forest.
In fact, the power of the World Tree also extends to the Green Forest and even the outer forests.
In these places, as long as the seeds of life are sown, the aura of death can be expelled at any time under the protection of the World Tree.
Previously, this was unnecessary because the elves could not defeat the undead and could not defend their territory.
But now it’s different. With Xu Lai as the backbone, the elves will naturally gather more life force.
This is not only a help to themselves, but also a great help to the World Tree.
The world tree and the forests, the elves, and all the living things that live in these forests interact with each other.
Without the support of these lives, the World Tree will gradually wither and eventually be completely contaminated by the aura of death.
The undead chose to force the elves from all directions, constantly compressing the elves' living space.
In addition to the fact that this can take advantage of the number of undead, it is also possible to pollute the world tree by continuously polluting external forces.
After all, the reason why these peripheral lives can grow so vigorously is because the roots of the World Tree extend here.
After stepping out of the protection area of Shenmu City, the ancient tree spirits continued to walk into the forest, constantly sowing precious tree seeds.
The druids who followed closely behind, led by the great druid Yin Mu, took turns casting spells.
As the druids' pure mana flowed out, green rays of light enveloped the seeds that had just been sown.
Under the illumination of rich life energy, the seeds just sown quickly completed the entire process from germination to growth.
But this is not the end. Countless elves, without any instructions from anyone, took the initiative to entangle these small trees that had just been stimulated.
The elves use their own lives to merge with these small trees, allowing them to complete their final growth.
With the life of the elf integrated into it, under the dual effects of the druid's spell and the world tree, these seeds that had just been sown turned into tree men again and stood up again.
But unlike those ancient tree spirits that are tens of meters tall, these new tree people are only one meter tall, a few centimeters shorter than Xu Lai.
Judging from their height, these newly born tree people do not have high combat effectiveness.
But even if their combat effectiveness is not high, they are also a new force. With Xu Lai's support, it is not impossible for them to defeat level 5 or even level 6 undead.
The most important thing is that the current appearance is not the final form of these tree people.
They walked for an unknown amount of time. Even with Xu Lai's amazing speed, the ancient tree spirit's speed was not really fast.
Finally, when it was afternoon, after 6 or 7 hours, all the ancient tree spirits sat down on the ground.
Xu Lai knew that this was the location chosen by Yin Mu and his team to build the city. (End of this chapter)
