The Black Dragon was finally persuaded.
It could lack anything but roasted meat.
Moreover … a certain Chosen One had provided more than 70% of the roasted meat for the Black Dragon with his own financial resources!
Considering the huge amount of food that the young Black Dragon needed in his growth period, at least … Merril did not think that other Chosen Ones could do such a thing.
The Little Black Dragon, who was used to eating and sleeping, and someone would give him roasted meat with honey when he was hungry, did not want to return to the era of hunting by himself.
However, just as Merril was about to take off, he suddenly stopped …
He looked in the direction of the Yggdrasill with some surprise and was silent for a moment before speaking to the Coo-Coo Bird.
"I can help you, but only against enemies that you can't fight against."
This was the oracle that Eve had just given to Merril.
The Black Dragon was still too strong. With his strength that was infinitely close to the Gold Rank, if he attacked with all his strength, the mercenaries would collapse before the players could even attack.
In that case, Eve would not be able to see the effect of the players' growth.
Hearing the Black Dragon's words, the Coo-Coo Bird was slightly stunned, but still nodded.
"Okay …"
Thus, after some negotiations, the Black Dragon joined the players' operation.
Similarly, Demacia also persuaded the Chosen One, Ayr, to join the players' mission again.
In the next hour, all the Black Iron players in the Elven Kingdom who were online started to move.
New players who had accepted the mission constantly came to the Black Dragon's castle through the teleportation portal.
At the foot of the hill where the Black Dragon's castle was located, on the open space where the Grotto tribe was, thousands of Chosen Ones gradually gathered!
They gathered here. At first, it was a little chaotic, but with Li Mu's command and arrangement in the group battle live chat channel, there was some order gradually.
All the players who had accepted the mission joined the team that Salty Meow had gathered.
After the number of people had increased, Salty Meow handed over the authority of the team leader to Li Mu.
However, as the number of people in the team increased, Li Mu thought about it and finally divided the entire team again. With the level and magic pet as the standard, the originally huge team was divided into several teams.
In particular, the players who had Crypt Spiders were separated and formed a "cavalry" team of about 100 people …
Time passed quickly, and after receiving the news, more and more people rushed over.
An hour later, more than 2,000 players had gathered at the empty ground at the foot of the hill. The number of players had reached a total of 2,500 players, which surprised the upper echelons of the four major guilds.
It turned out that it wasn't just the Black Iron players who had accepted the mission. Even some Level 10 Third Beta Players who hadn't reached Level 11 had chosen to join the mission.
After all, this was the first big storyline since the Third Beta Test of "Elven Nation". According to the videos on the internet, the most interesting part of "Elven Nation" was the big storyline!
Therefore, even if they could not accept the mission, some of the Third Beta Players hoped to participate.
In this regard, Li, Li Mu and Meow Meow Dragon Guild.
No matter how weak they were, it was still combat power, wasn't it?
Of course, Level 10 was the bottom line. Those who were below Level 10 would be courting death …
It was already late at night.
However, the Elves' night vision was very strong, and they could still see everything around them clearly.
More than two thousand five hundred players gathered together and formed several square formations that could barely be called neat. It looked … rather inspiring.
It was time to set off.
Li Mu rode on his unicorn and stood on top of a hill, looking at the square formations of players in front of him with an excited expression.
"Play the battle song!"
He ordered in the Team Battle Live Chat Channel.
As soon as he finished speaking, the manager of the Team Battle Live Chat Channel pulled up a few epic background music and played it in the channel.
It was the system music of Elven Kingdom. It was played by Eve in the previous battles to boost the morale of the players.
However, the music had been recorded by the players and was now being played again in the Team Battle Live Chat Channel as a battle song.
This … saved Eve the need to play the background music.
When the impassioned and vigorous music was played, all the players who participated in the battle felt their hearts surge.
The whistling night wind, the hard armor, and the cold gleam of the weapons under the moonlight … At this moment, accompanied by the epic background music, the players subconsciously quieted down.
Their breathing became slightly heavier, and their blood boiled in their hearts. They felt that they had instantly transformed into heroes who were about to save the world …
As the commander-in-chief, Li Mu was also very excited.
His heart moved, and then he took a deep breath, drew out a longsword with a "shiny" special effect that he had asked for at the last minute, pointed it to the sky, and shouted passionately in the Team Battle Live Chat Channel.
"Time's up! Let's begin! "
"Goal — Eliminate the human mercenaries and save our brothers and sisters! Wula —! "
His high-pitched howl, which was almost out of his voice, resounded in the Team Battle Live Chat Channel and reverberated in the empty valley, echoing endlessly …
The players were also inspired and excited. They responded by drawing their weapons and pointing them to the sky. They could not help but roar.
"Wula —!"
The neat and majestic roars startled the sleeping birds in the forest, and the echoes echoed. The Black Dragon Merril, who was watching the players' actions from the hillside, clicked his tongue slightly.
Li Mu slowly exhaled, then waved his sword again and shouted.
"Let's go! Target the north! "
Following his command, the gathered player army began to move.
The assembled phalanx slowly turned. With more than 30 unicorn knights as the leader and more than 200 Crypt Spider Knights as the vanguard, they rushed toward the coordinates of Salty Meow and the others on the map like a torrent …
"A bunch of crazy guys …"
Looking at the army of the Chosen Ones moving slowly toward the north, Merril shook his head and flapped his wings to follow them …
Eve, who had sneaked into the Team Battle Live Chat Channel, secretly observed the players. She was also looking forward to it.
"After so many days of silence … Let me see how much you've grown."
…
Northeast of the Gloom Mountain Range, on the trade route that led to the border of the Holy Mania Empire, Maple Leaf Territory.
Crocodile led his mercenary group forward slowly …
After successfully raiding a Black Dragon's lair and capturing a large number of elves, the mercenaries were eager to return home. They could not wait to return to the Earl's territory and sell the goods in their hands.
After moving forward in the dark for a few hours, Crocodile was slightly relieved when he realized that the Black Dragon did not chase after them.
"Looks like we've successfully escaped."
In order to prevent being discovered by the Black Dragon in the sky, he even ordered the entire army to forbid lighting fires. Instead, they moved forward along the trade route in the dark.
Fortunately, the many years of trade with the Kingdom of Ayres made the trade route between the two human countries relatively smooth. The road conditions were not bad, and the Crocodile Mercenary Group did not encounter any difficulties.
After a few hours of rapid marching, they had already traveled more than ten kilometers overnight …
The sky was slightly brightening, and the night was about to end.
After a night of marching, even though most of the mercenaries led by Crocodile were Dark Iron professionals, they could not help but feel tired.
"Stop and rest for a while."
Crocodile ordered.
The sky was already bright.
It was not advisable to blindly rush the army.
After a short rest, their marching speed could be increased again!
And if they persevered for another day, they would be able to return to the borders of the Empire.
Thinking of this, Crocodile was a little worried. He looked at his subordinates again and asked,
He looked at his subordinates and asked again, "Are the captured elves okay?"
The mercenary who was called by Crocodile was slightly stunned and quickly replied,
"They're fine! They're all tied up tightly and can't resist. "
"No one touched them, right?"
"No, no! We all understand. Elves … Only the original can sell for a higher price! "
"Hmm … Well done! When we return this time, everyone will get rich together! "
Crocodile laughed.
The mercenary looked delighted.
"Long live the Captain! Captain is the best! "
Hearing the mercenary's compliments, Crocodile nodded slightly and began to calculate the profits of this trip in his heart.
"Fifty-eight elves! Hehe … If this is done well, I can sell it for at least two hundred thousand gold coins! "
"Even if I distribute the profits to the mercenaries, I can still leave at least fifty thousand!"
"Fifty thousand gold coins … That's enough for me to buy a viscount title in the Empire! Once I have a viscount title, I can break away from my identity as a commoner and open up my own territory, becoming a true landed noble! "
"Hehe, this doesn't include the profits from this mercenary mission in the Kingdom of Ayres. There's also the goods from this operation. If I sell these goods from the Kingdom of Ayres, I can earn at least a few thousand pounds!"
He thought delightedly.
However, just as the mercenaries stopped, set up camp, relaxed their vigilance, and began to rest …
Suddenly, dozens of arrows shot out from both sides of the forest!
These arrows carried the radiance of magic and were extremely fast. In an instant, they turned a dozen mercenaries at the edge of the camp into porcupines.
And then, the corpses of the mercenaries who had been shot … turned into ashes under the disbelieving gazes of the other mercenaries!
At the same time, a series of thunderous booms came from afar …
Before the dozens of mercenaries at the periphery could figure out what was going on, they felt a strong force attack them. Bloody holes appeared on their bodies, and then they slowly fell to the ground …
"Not good! There are enemies! "
Crocodile's expression changed.
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw over a hundred ferocious figures rushing out from the forest.
They were spiders the size of humans, their bodies covered in black insect armor …
However, what made Crocodile's pupils shrink were the tall figures on the backs of the spiders.
They were dressed in gorgeous armor or magic robes. Some were holding exquisite longbows, some were holding staffs, and some were carrying swords on their backs. However, in their hands, there was a clumsy unknown tube-shaped object that was still emitting white smoke.
"Elves?!"
Crocodile was stunned.
