At this moment, the meeting between the two sides had already begun.
The Wind Elves and Cat Demons, who had accompanied the two lords here, were wantonly talking. They wanted to form an alliance, but at the same time, they wanted to increase their own benefits. Thus, they were constantly arguing with each other.
On the other hand, the two Lords sitting in the middle didn't say a word. They seemed to be at ease.
Sitting in the middle of the Wind Elves was a female Wind Elf with a tall and slender figure. She had long dark green hair that was almost black, and the ends of her hair were neatly cut into a straight line. Apart from her abnormally snow-white skin, she also had slender eyes, a tall nose, and thin lips. She gave off a sense of beauty that was as sharp as a knife. She was a mature woman.
The woman was wearing a folded windbreaker with a very long katana on her waist. Her snow-white bare feet were exposed by a pair of dark red wooden clogs. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also full of a windbreaker, making it hard for anyone to forget her at first sight.
She was the Lord of the Wind Elves. Every month, she would receive around eighty percent of the votes in the Lord's Poll. She was a player who had always held the position of Lord — — Shuo Ye.
Sitting in front of Shuo Ye was a petite young girl.
The girl looked rather young, but she had a head of golden wavy hair, and a pair of large triangular ears protruded from both sides of her head. She was wearing a combat suit that resembled a swimsuit, boldly exposing her wheat-colored skin. Both sides of her waist were equipped with hooks with three claws, and a long patterned tail protruded from the breasts of the combat suit.
Although she looked a little childish, she wasn't any less beautiful than Shuo Ye by ALO standards. Unlike the sexy and mature Shuo Ye, she walked the path of cuteness and innocence.
She was the Lord of the Cat Demons. Just like Shuo Ye, she had an overwhelming amount of popularity. She was the player who had held the position for a long time — — Alisa Lu.
The Lords of both races were rare beauties. In a game world that was lacking in female players, it was easy to imagine how many people liked them with looks like that.
It was precisely because of this that the two of them were able to obtain huge popularity and overwhelming support in their respective territories. Every month, they were able to obtain a lot of votes and maintain their positions as lords.
Of course, the two of them weren't just for show. Not only did they manage their territory in an orderly fashion, but they were also skilled as players. Even if they had to deal with government affairs, they were still the top ten experts of their respective races. They were the perfect combination of beauty, strength, and intelligence.
Since the Wind Elves and the Cat Demons were on good terms with each other, it was impossible for these two lords to not be familiar with each other.
Rather, it could be said that Shuo Ye and Alisa were actually good friends and had a very good relationship in private, which was why this alliance was formed.
Even so, the two were still lords of their own races and had to prioritize the interests of their own races. That was why even if they had agreed to form an alliance in private and the conditions and contents of the alliance had long since been set, the two still had to bring the leaders of their respective races to the meeting for the sake of fairness. Otherwise, the players of their own races would definitely be displeased if they formed an alliance with another race.
Because of this, even if they had agreed to form an alliance in private, it was still necessary for them to attend the meeting in public in order to prevent internal problems from arising.
Because of this, neither Shuo Ye nor Alisa said anything. Instead, they allowed the higher-ups beside them to speak to their heart's content. As a result, one closed her eyes and rested, while the other played with her nails. It seemed like she was in a superior position.
Until …
"Alright, let's stop arguing."
Seeing that it was about time, Shuo Ye finally opened her eyes and spoke up to stop the argument.
"No matter what, it's necessary for the two races to form an alliance. Even if we don't consider other issues, just look at the evil deeds of the Fire Elves. In order to conquer the World Tree, they have been brazenly hunting the players of our two races. If we don't join forces to fight against the Fire Elves, then, as the two races closest to the Fire Elves' territory, both of us will be unable to recover from the blow of the Fire Elves.
This was what Shuo Ye had said.
Alisa immediately chimed in.
"Indeed, if we allow the Fire Elves to continue like this, not to mention anything else, once they successfully conquer the World Tree with the resources they stole from us and reincarnate as the Light Elves, then from now on, the ALO will be dominated by the Fire Elves alone. It will be very difficult for us to have a chance to rise again."
Alisa's words silenced both the Wind Elves and the Cat Demons.
Obviously, both sides knew that this was not without reason.
Therefore, it could be said that it was imperative for both sides to form an alliance.
But what was the content of the alliance? That was a little thought-provoking.
"We do not object to the Wind Elves and the Cat Demons forming an alliance."
"But, is our alliance limited to fighting against the Fire Elves?"
"That can only be regarded as keeping the Fire Elves in check. It will not bring any substantial benefits to either side."
"Since we are forming an alliance, then we should work hard for a greater goal."
"Yes, for example, on the World Tree strategy, both races should also help each other."
"That's right, this is the way to go."
"After all, both of us have tried to attack the World Tree, but in the end, we all failed."
"If that's the case, for the sake of the future, I think it is very necessary for both races to work together to attack the World Tree."
"That's right."
Both camps began to speak such words.
Little did they know that Shuo Ye and Alisa had been waiting for this step to appear.
The two of them had also decided to form an alliance. Not only would they keep the Fire Elves in check, but they would also attack the World Tree together.
The problem was …
"Is the premise of attacking the World Tree together valid?"
One of the Wind Elves spoke up.
"I also think it is very difficult."
A Cat Demon echoed.
The others also looked at each other and frowned.
The reason was very simple, because it was completely contradictory to the strategy itself.
No one knew whether all races would be able to reincarnate as Light Elves after reaching the top of the World Tree.
It would be good if all the races that reached the top could reincarnate, but if only one race could reincarnate, what would happen then?
Don't forget, this was a world where races were encouraged to kill each other. In that case, if different races attacked the World Tree at the same time, there was a high chance that only one party would be able to reincarnate.
Since that was the case, no one wanted to give up such an opportunity, and cooperation would become a fool's dream.
However, Shuo Ye and Alisa had already discussed this problem.
"How about this." Shuo Ye said as if she had prepared a script beforehand, "It would be best if both sides can reincarnate as Light Elves, but if only one party succeeds, the party that succeeds will help the other party in the next attack. How about that?"
"That's good." Alisa immediately clapped her hands in agreement. "Even if only one race successfully reincarnates as Light Elves in the end, and once a race reincarnates, the mission will disappear, the game will not end just like that. After the World Tree is successfully attacked, there will definitely be a new final mission for players to complete. When that time comes, the party that succeeds will help the other party to complete the mission."
Hearing this, the Wind Elves and Cat Demons pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"That's the only way."
"Yes."
"That's good."
"We have no objections."
Everyone voiced their agreement one after another.
Shuo Ye and Alisa looked at each other and smiled inwardly.
"Then, from now on, us Wind Elves and Cat Demons will …"
Shuo Ye stood up, intending to officially announce the success of the alliance.
However, at that moment …
"Oh no!"
Alisa's ears twitched slightly, then her expression changed as she stood up.
"A group of players is coming!"
That one sentence caused everyone's expression to change.
