Chapter 3045: Hard FightEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Even if it was eradicated in the shortest time...

The eternal Disaster was not something to be taken lightly.

In the days to come, the elves might be shrouded in the shadow of the Disaster for generations.

Just after the Elven King had finished boosting morale, two guards hurriedly arrived outside the Great Hall to report, "Your Majesty, urgent military news—Disaster creatures began to move and are rapidly advancing toward the Elven Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, the high-ranking elves inside the hall first looked shocked, then their expressions quickly turned into deep fury.

The Disaster was utterly disrespecting the elves?

It dared to directly approach their kingdom?

They all knew—if the elves launched an attack on their own, in a suitable forest environment, their combat power could be at most 120%. But if they were fighting within their own kingdom, under the protection of the Tree of Life, their combat strength would double—200%!

Not to mention, the powerful Tree of Life itself would provide immense aid on the battlefield.

Under its protection, the elves feared no invading race!

"Everyone, the mutant worms have already reached our doorstep," the Elven King said, his voice heavy with suppressed rage. "Then we fight."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The Elven Kingdom essentially referred to the entire domain covered by the Tree of Life.

Over the past ten thousand years, as the Tree of Life gradually declined, the territory of the Elven Kingdom had been shrinking.

After leaving the stone cave, Fang Heng immediately directed a large swarm of Lickers to charge toward the Elven Kingdom.

It was time for a fight!

The plan had two parts—one overt and one covert.

Secretly, he used Kapa to manipulate the elves through fake stone wall translations, misleading their minds as much as possible—confusing them, even crippling their judgment if possible.

But of course, Fang Heng didn’t place all his hopes on deception.

He knew better than anyone—true victory still depended on brute strength.

On the frontlines, he used the Licker swarm to assault the elves, both to stage an apocalyptic illusion and to actually engage in battle!

To clash with the elves head-on—to weaken the strength of the ancient Tree of Life!

The Tree was in a period of decline, growing weaker by the day. While Abe Akaya couldn’t defeat it yet, Fang Heng could help by constantly forcing it to fight, draining its power.

By weakening the enemy while Abe grew stronger, they could eventually strike a fatal blow.

"Whoosh, whoosh whoosh..."

Lickers crawled swiftly across the creep, advancing toward the frontlines. At the edge of the creep, they quickly condensed into flesh cocoons and transformed into creep worms.

These creep worms continued spreading the creep outward.

Under Fang Heng’s control, the creep rapidly expanded. In just over an hour, it had already reached the edges of the Tree of Life’s domain.

Fang Heng remained hidden behind the swarm, looking ahead from a distance.

The elves had already mobilized, defending the area within the Tree of Life’s protection, awaiting the arrival of the mutant worm swarm.

"Heh, already prepared, are you?"

Very well.

Then let’s fight!

Battle will surged in Fang Heng’s eyes as he commanded the swarm to flood toward the battlefield.

Meanwhile, under the Tree of Life’s protection, the Elven army watched the approaching swarm with growing unease.

The number of mutant worms far exceeded expectations.

But it was fine.

They could rely on the Tree of Life in battle.

That was their greatest advantage.

The battlefield commander slowly raised his right hand and signaled, "Explosion arrows—ready!"

Facing the onrushing mutant worm swarm, the elves drew their enchanted bows and aimed.

The third prince stood in the rear, heart pounding with excitement.

A battle of hundreds of thousands.

Every participant was an elite of the Elven tribe!

"Fire!"

The elves launched the first wave!

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A massive barrage of magical arrows rained down over the Licker swarm.

Enhanced by sharpening runes and spell enchantments, the arrows pierced into the bodies of the Lickers.

"Boom! Boom boom boom!"

Each arrow exploded a second time on impact!

The front lines of Lickers were blown backward in rows.

It worked!

The third prince, Neo, clenched his fist in excitement.

But the Elven soldiers frowned.

The mutant worm swarm didn’t die!

Even after being blasted away, the worms regained control mid-air with agile double leaps and charged again toward the Elven lines. Their wounds healed almost instantly.

The Elven King furrowed his brows.

The explosion arrows—best for dealing with large numbers—seemed ineffective.

The Lickers, after being knocked back, returned stronger, with those in the rear forming more flesh cocoons to spawn new creep worms, continuing the spread toward the Tree of Life.

"Repulsion arrows—ready!"

The Elven patriarch raised his hand and shouted, "Fire!"

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Arrows imbued with wind elements rained down on the battlefield.

Effective!

The arrows struck the Lickers and exploded with wind force, sending them flying several meters back.

Repulsion arrows worked far better than the explosion arrows.

If they couldn’t deal lethal damage anyway, they might as well stop the worms from advancing.

But just stopping them wasn’t enough.

They had to be destroyed.

"Hunter arrows! Ready! Groups of three—focus fire! Fire!"

Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

More arrows flew, targeting the Lickers’ vital points—heart, brain, and other weak spots.

Hunter arrows dealt the highest single-target damage, with additional effects like shock, stun, bleed, and multi-lock. Groups of three elves focused on one target each.

"Chi! Chi chi!"

The struck Lickers howled in pain, losing mobility and rolling across the ground.

What!?

Still not dead?

Several Elven elders were stunned to see Lickers hit by three hunter arrows still roll for a bit and then get back up, full of life, rejoining the fight.

How strong was this mutant worm flesh!?

The Elven commander’s face darkened. He gave the order coldly, "Groups of thirty! Hunter arrows! Ready!"

"Fire!"

"Chi! Chi chi!!"

Arrows once again sliced through the air, accurately striking the Lickers’ weak points.

"Boom! Boom boom boom boom!"

The sudden burst of overwhelming damage exceeded the Lickers’ HP limits. Their bodies exploded mid-air!
