Magic and swords clashed, and in the absence of a magic storm, the knights weren't completely defenseless.
In the end, the knights still arrived before the magic barrier and began to attack it in a frenzy.
The Ironback Eagles were also attacking the barrier from the sky and converging toward the Tree of Life at the center of the City of Life.
Their target was clearly the Tree of Life, the holy tree that symbolized the soul of the elves. Destroying it would destroy the confidence of the elves.
The unmanned protective barrier was on the verge of collapse.
The elves in the City of Life looked on with concern at the barrier that seemed to be on the verge of shattering at any moment. More and more people walked onto the streets to join in the defense of the city.
"If we can't even protect the Tree of Life, the elven race will cease to exist." Snarr stood on a roof and looked up at the Ironback Eagles that were attacking the Tree of Life in a frenzy. He leaped down from the roof and flew toward the Tree of Life.
At the same time, Sally also turned around and rushed toward the Tree of Life. If the barrier was broken, Barton could command the elves to continue to defend the city, but if the Tree of Life was destroyed, she would become a sinner of the elven race.
Pop —
A light pop sounded like a bubble being popped.
The protective barrier around the City of Life was broken, and the sky was cleared.
Both sides were stunned for a moment, and then they entered into a desperate close combat phase.
The Ironback Eagles in the sky were also no longer obstructed, and they ignored the arrows that were flying toward them from the ground as they flew toward the Tree of Life without any hesitation.
Their mission was to destroy the Tree of Life, and whoever completed this feat would be made a marquis upon their return!
The Tree of Life was several hundred meters tall, and its slender branches glowed with a faint green light. It was mysterious and holy, and its branches swayed gently as if they were alive.
"Destroy it!"
The commander of the Ironback Eagles yelled as he led the charge toward the Tree of Life.
"No!"
All of the elves cried out in alarm, and countless arrows shot toward the Ironback Eagles from different directions. The number of Ironback Eagles gathered above the Tree of Life was reduced by more than half in an instant.
However, there were still several dozen Ironback Eagles that managed to break through and quickly descended toward the Tree of Life.
Pessimism and despair rose in the hearts of the elves. Was the Tree of Life, which had not been destroyed in the racial war, going to be destroyed here?
This was the holy tree that communicated with the Goddess of Life, the source of the Water of Life, and the spiritual symbol of the elves.
The knights raised the swords in their hands, and the Iron-backed Eagles spread their sharp wings. If they destroyed this tree, they would leave their names in history.
"Little Tree, beat them up!"
At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
The Tree of Life, which was originally only flickering with a faint green light, suddenly shone brightly. The gently swaying branches suddenly rose up like whips, drawing out blurry cracks in the void, and then fell on the body of the swooping Ironback Eagle.
Pa pa pa!
A crisp sound resounded through the sky as the gigantic Ironback Eagle was sent flying by the weak willow branch, crashing into the ground with a loud bang.
Like swatting flies, the hundreds of Ironback Eagles that were dancing wildly in the sky were all sent to the ground in an instant. Together with the knights, they were all dizzy and lost consciousness.
A golden light flashed, and a figure in a white dress appeared above the Tree of Life. Her silver hair danced in the wind, and her exquisite and beautiful face had a cold expression.
"It's Princess Irina!"
"Princess Irina is back!"
The elves, who had yet to recover from the shock of the Tree of Life's sudden attack, saw Irina suddenly appear, and immediately erupted into cheers.
The protective barrier had been broken, and the City of Life had fallen into a full-scale battle.
The Roth Empire's knights displayed their incomparable strength in close combat, and forced the elven allied army to retreat continuously, and were about to be utterly defeated.
And at this critical moment, Irina appeared in the City of Life, and immediately became the savior in the hearts of all the elves.
Sally stopped in her tracks, and looked at Irina, who had appeared above the Tree of Life, with elation on her face. The Tree of Life was fine, and the elves finally had someone they could rely on.
"Your Highness!" Snarr also stopped in his tracks, and looked at Irina with elation in his eyes. She had indeed come.
"What is she doing here?" However, there were also some elves who looked at Irina with bewilderment. If Irina had summoned the Night Elves to attack them at this critical moment, it would be one disaster after another.
"Why is Irina here?!" Iman was also shocked. He had thought that Helena would come back, but he didn't expect Irina to be the first to arrive. At the same time, he looked around to see if Alex had also come.
Irina hovered in the air as she scanned the City of Life, which was engulfed in the flames of war. She was astonished at the sight of the elves who had volunteered to defend the city, and her eyes flashed with fury.
She raised her magic caster's staff, and Holy Light lit up the entire City of Life.
The elven warriors and the knights of the Roth Empire were forcefully separated by the Holy Light.
The branches of the Tree of Life swayed, and a faint green light gathered above her head, providing her with even more powerful enhancement effects.
"Get out of The Wind Forest immediately!" Irina yelled coldly at Iman.
Iman looked at Irina with furrowed brows.
"General, the vanguard of the guards has arrived. We have to retreat. There are still two elven troops of unknown origins in other directions," a deputy general whispered into his ear.
At the same time, three flying steeds were quickly flying toward them from the distance. They didn't hide their auras at all, and their identities were revealed.
Iman's determination to fight to the death was completely destroyed, and he ordered, "Send the signal, retreat!"
A red signal flare rose into the sky, and the knights who were attacking the City of Life from four different directions hurriedly turned their steeds around and retreated.
"We won!!!"
The elves' cheers instantly rang out in the air above the City of Life, and their faces were brimming with joy.
They hugged one another to celebrate this victory, even though their identities were different.
"This bunch of bastards!" Helena's flying steed finally arrived in the air above the City of Life, and her face was ashen as she looked at the devastated city.
"The ones who saved the City of Life weren't those lords that you designated, but these ordinary elves." Irina looked at Helena, and said with a hint of mockery, "Back then, you all made that laughable policy and threw away the most precious thing to the elves. You may have forgotten, but they didn't, so they stood up again."
Helena looked at those ordinary elves who were covered in blood. Elves of different identities and clothes were mixed together, but they seemed so harmonious at this moment. Their smiles were so simple, just like back then …
