In the morning, after washing up and having breakfast as usual, Lin prepared to head to the World Tree Tribe of the Dark Elves.
This was the first time he was using the positioning of the ring to teleport over a long distance, so Lin did a lot of pre-confirmation, including checking the condition of the Black Tortoise Robe. As for the purpose of going to the meeting, it was just to meet the World Tree Fasnath. It was not a big deal, so there was no need to make any extra preparations. Lin thought to himself.
Although the robes on Fen and the others had the second version of the protective spell that could resist the corrosion of foreign energy, the robes they were wearing could not be protected.
Compared to the first version of the protective spell, which could only protect the object engraved with the magic array, the second version of the protective spell could also protect the wrapped object and even slightly expand the range of protection. In other words, Hallumi and Kaya, who were wearing the robes with the improved version of the protective spell, were also protected by the protective spell. Of course, the disadvantage was that it consumed more Authority.
Even so, Lin did not plan to bring anyone on this short trip.
Not to mention that he might be able to go home after a few words. The target of this meeting was the World Tree, the Ancient Fasnath, who was older than any known existence. What was the other party's attitude? Would there be any complications? These uncertain factors made Lin cautious.
It would be easier for him to escape if he went into battle alone. Bringing one more person would be a burden, so Lin Wan rejected anyone who wanted to follow.
Everything was ready. In fact, there was nothing much to prepare. After greeting everyone, Lin Feng sensed another existence in the distance through the ring on his finger that was resonating with him. It was a very strange feeling. It was clearly a fluorescent light far away, but it attracted his attention. He opened his eyes and blinked!
This process happened in the blink of an eye, and even the two female apprentices were caught off guard. Hallumi mumbled that she did not follow this time. Kaya turned around and exclaimed, "Ah, the Cassette Cutting is gone."
Everyone looked at each other. For a moment, no one could understand the meaning behind this. Hallumi asked, "Did Teacher say that he was going to bring the Cassette Cutting out?"
Kaya shook her head and said, "The teacher did say that we're going as guests this time, not to fight. That's why we didn't bring the box." Everyone looked at each other, a bad feeling welling up in their hearts.
Lin, who had used Blink to reach his destination, was also stunned, not to mention the people who had been left behind at home. The welcoming lineup beside him consisted of sixteen dark elves. They were divided into two circles and stood in a crisscrossed manner, surrounding a certain someone. Beside his feet was a female … corpse? Although he was still breathing, it seemed like he would die soon.
Dark Elf Malcolm looked as if he had been severely tortured. Of his four limbs, only his right hand, which was wearing a ring, remained. Only a small part of his feet and left hand remained. Moreover, the bones had been pierced through, and the flesh was badly mangled. Pus and blood flowed out. Of course, there was no bandaging or any emergency treatment. There were even white and fat maggots wriggling in the wound. It was obvious that the wound had been there for some time and was deliberately not allowed to heal.
Her eyes were lifeless and her body was covered in blood. She did not notice the person beside her at all. Of course, she would not react. If not for the fact that Lin could still detect her heartbeat, he would probably have thought that she was dead.
Of course, the 16 lively dark elves didn't give Lin much time to react either. After a certain someone had used Blink to suddenly appear, they were flustered. However, they quickly gathered together and chanted an incantation.
Immediately, the Magical Array carved on the ground glowed with an ominous green light. This was the famous Dimensional Anchor. It was the nemesis of all … most teleportation spells. Unfortunately, Blink was not one of them.
Since they were going to attack, there was no need to talk nonsense! After living in the maze for so long, perhaps before anything happened, a certain someone's indecisiveness would anger many people. However, once they attacked, a certain someone was equally decisive and ruthless. It was as if he was a different person.
Not to mention that bad people died from talking too much, good people also often died from talking too much. Therefore, Lin did not want to waste time asking why, nor did he want to spend time figuring out the situation. He summoned Cassette Cutting. The inscriptions on the sword caused it to emit a white flame when it was swung. Lin swung his sword without hesitation, even though there was still quite a distance between him and the dark elves surrounding him.
No one was afraid. In the eyes of the dark elves, this human Magician who had suddenly appeared was in the middle of the Magical Array. This meant that he was already under their control. What they needed to do next was to further suppress the other party, then capture him and claim credit.
As for the long sword in his hand that emitted white flames, everyone naturally thought that he had been carrying it with him since the beginning. It was just that no one had noticed it. As for his action of swinging his sword from afar, it was just a joke that he could not cut anyone.
In the next moment, he disappeared without a trace!
There were no shouts, no exclamations, not even the sound of the sword cutting through flesh. Lin merely swung his sword, and the heads of two dark elves who were standing in front and behind him flew into the air at the same time. Blood spurted out from the carotid arteries, bright red like flowers. However, Lin did not get a single drop of it. He appeared in the next position and killed another two!
The dead were not chosen at random. Lin chose the one with the greatest authority among the dark elves around him. There was no need to take a closer look at his appearance. In any case, he was already dead. The other dark elf died at the same time, but because he was too close, he killed him in passing. It was the same for the second group.
The dark elves reacted in different ways. Lin chose to take care of those who were trying to escape first. Even though he used Blink to attack, and Lin was also used to attacking from behind the enemy or from their blind spots, those who were trying to escape had lost their courage and were easier to deal with.
As the saying went, one should not pursue a cornered enemy. It was a situation where one would have to spend time chasing and possibly fall into an ambush. However, killing those who were trying to escape was just a matter of convenience for a certain someone. Besides, Lin had no reason to spare these people.
Next, he chose to switch spells and spells, trying to use short spells to launch a counterattack. No matter what spell it was, as long as it was effective, it would cause a certain amount of obstruction. Thus, the best time was to kill the other party before the spell was completed!
Moreover, in a situation where there was no protection, or the person protecting them was not strong enough, rashly chanting spells and using spells was a tactical mistake. Making a mistake meant death. There was no mercy on the battlefield. There was no room for sympathy from a certain transmigrator.
Cassette Cutting, which appeared in the image of Andúril, was not stained with a single drop of blood. The white flames became more and more dazzling as more and more people died. However, the person holding the sword was like a fierce demon. Every strike was a head or a body. The only outcome for the dark elves was to lose their courage and then die …
Sixteen dark elves turned into sixteen corpses in the span of a few breaths. No one had a chance to resist. Or rather, they did, but it was meaningless in the face of Blink and Cassette Cutting. When everything returned to normal, Lin casually swept the magic array on the ground. After Cassette Cutting destroyed all the gathered powers, he finally had time to look at his situation.
First of all, he should be in a treehouse. According to the results of his investigation of the environment, it was 36.3 meters high from the ground, with an area of 39.6 square meters. It was long. Compared to the wood elf tribe he had been to and the World Tree territory, this should be a house specially used for ceremonies. The characteristic was that there were many powerful protective arrays carved on the walls to prevent accidents.
Most importantly, there were many people outside the house!
Should he just go home? Although he had expected that he would be able to go home soon, he did not expect it to be for such a reason.
Go out and start a massacre? But what was the purpose of doing so?
Then fall to the ground. Should he save the female dark elf with her last breath?
After a series of choices, what finally made Lin Xia's decision was the whispers in her ears. She called out, summoning the guests she had invited to go and meet her.
The battle that happened in the ritual room was, of course, not hidden from the dark elves outside. Unfortunately, in order to prevent the ritual from being interrupted or something that should not run out and break into the room, the doors and windows of this room were especially sturdy. Therefore, the dark elves were unable to break through for a while.
When they went through all the trouble to break the doors and windows from the outside, the scene they saw when they entered the room was an unfamiliar human Mage carrying that shameful woman and disappearing into thin air in front of the dark elves.
Broken magic arrays, blood, and corpses. If any of these appeared, they would have an irreconcilable feud with the initiator. Not to mention that they appeared at the same time, and the deceased were all powerful people in the tribe. Their deaths were even more blasphemous and could not be resurrected.
The dark elves who entered the door did not think that the skills of these deceased were among the best even among them. So many people had died. What different results would there be when it was their turn? They only wanted revenge or to use it as a pretext to make a fuss!
If the deceased was their own bloodline or inheritance, they would of course choose the path of revenge. If not, in order to gather the forces left behind by the deceased and rope in their young bloodline, ambitious people would also have to show their attitude and use revenge to buy people's hearts. Therefore, even if the enemy disappeared in front of them, no matter who it was, they would have to find the person and use blood as a sacrifice to the soul of the deceased.
Of course, the person who disappeared did not directly return to Estali's home in the Holy City. He chased after the voice and appeared in another room with the half-dead Myr on his shoulder.
Also within the range of the World Tree, there were three dark elves in light armor guarding the room. They did not realize that there was an outsider invading at all. Of course, they did not make any preparations and were just chatting leisurely.
Therefore, when Lin, who was carrying a person, appeared in front of them, not only was Lin, who flashed over, stunned, but they also had baffled expressions. Both sides stared at each other with wide eyes, rolled their eyes, and then glanced at their companions on the left and right. The four people who were looking at each other seemed to have agreed. After a moment of dead silence, they moved at the same time!
