Chapter 756 - Scared Off (2/2)

Very soon, they were locked onto by the World Tree.

Intense magic waves trembled violently behind them.

They all looked back, only to see a great mass of green energy gathering and expanding behind them.

They had no doubt that the green energy could consume them once and for all.

There was no time for them to disperse and escape anymore, because every Mage sensed that they had been completely locked onto.

Such locking was usually implemented with magic.

It was impossible for them to escape.

So, they might as well fight. Dying while fighting sounded better than dying while fleeing

The ten Mages turned around and were about to attack the World Tree’s manifestation with magic.

But exactly at this moment, they found that they couldn’t use their magic power anymore.

At some point, they were surrounded by a thin insulation level of natural elements.

Damn it!

She had used the elves’ special ability of magic disruption already?

The elves, thanks to their high mental power, were very good at disrupting magic.

While they could prevent the enemy from casting any spells, they could still do that.

The World Tree was a mother to all elves and a Demigod. She was undoubtedly very strong in that regard.

Let’s wait to die!

The ten Mages heaved a sigh and gave up resistance.

One of the Mages were streaming. He said with a bitter smile, “The World Tree is really a Demigod beyond our expectation. Our attempt has failed.”

The netizens all posted comments one after another.

“It’s not a failure. The World Tree’s consciousness cannot get too far away from her original body. She can’t protect the entire Elf Forest.”

“You’re already impressive enough. If the elven queen hadn’t sacrificed herself, you would’ve won. After all, your goal was the elven goddess.”

“It’s all right. Death is nothing. You’ll be a new Legend in half a year.”

“The World Tree is really pretty. Is anyone interested in conquering her?”

“Men these days are no longer satisfied with animals but even want to play with trees? Embarrassing!”

“Don’t tell me you wouldn’t do her if you had a chance.”

“Of course I would!”

The netizens who watched the stream didn’t care about the outcome of the battle.

In their eyes, the raid was already won, although the price was rather high.

If the ten Mages died again, all the Legendary players that took part in the god-slaying operation would be gone.

Then, there would be few Legendary players left in the world: those who didn’t participate in the operation.

The World Tree’s charming face was full of ice. She was about to turn the green energy ball into countless spears and pierce them into the ten Legendary human beings, when she suddenly raised her head in surprise and wariness, the green energy ball held still in her hand.

Clouds were surging in the sky.

The enormous floating city descended in the middle of a heavy fog and landed between them.

In the stream channel, the netizens exclaimed again.

It was the first time that they had witnessed the floating city over a short distance. The descent of the floating city was only slow when it was observed from far away.

At this moment, the ten Mages were only fifty meters away from the edge of the floating city. The wind and attraction caused by the floating city disrupted all the magic elements into turbulence.

The ten Mages could only land in a hurry.

After they landed, they found that the World Tree wasn’t chasing them. They immediately understood that the floating city was blocked by the World Tree.

All of them seized the opportunity to run.

The netizens all cried out in the stream channel.

“Go back!”

“I want to see the battle between the lonely man and woman!”

“It’s a huge battle between a floating city and a Demigod, yet you’re only running? Why can’t you go back and take a look?”

The Legendary player who streamed the battle wasn’t concerned about the criticisms at all.

Of course he wouldn’t go back… They hadn’t been Legends for long, and if they died, they would fall back to level 14 and become Masters again. They would need half a year to make up for the EXP loss, if they were lucky enough to trigger epic quests frequently.

How many half-years did a man have in his entire life?

So, no matter how the netizens urged him to go back, he remained unconvinced. From the floating city, Roland stared at the World Tree in the distance.

Holding the giant green energy ball, the World Tree gloomily ascended until she was on the same level as Roland.

Gazing at Roland for a while, she asked, “Human, are you determined to protect those murderers?”

“They’re not murderers. After all, they didn’t kill civilians or children,” said Roland casually. “In comparison, the elves, who are famous for their gentleness, weren’t merciful at all toward human civilians. Three thousand elves managed to kill 250,000 human civilians. I’m quite impressed by that.”

Roland was indeed protecting the ten Mages, because nine of them were members of the Association of Mages that Roland founded.

Although they weren’t very close, they were still friends who knew each other’s names and could make fun of each other.

The World Tree snorted. “I didn’t know that. I only know that they killed my children and I must seek revenge. So, if you don’t get out of the way…”

The green energy ball in her hand got even bigger.

The World Tree was a Demigod and had lived countless years in the main plane. She had eaten more salt than any sand that Roland had seen.

She could tell that even though Roland was as strong as a Demigod with the floating city, he was essentially still a Legend.

She was 60% to 70% confident of beating or even lightly wounding the guy even though he had a floating city.

However, she wasn’t confident of killing this human being… If he hid himself in the floating city and fled, it would be impossible for her to stop him. The floating city was almost impenetrable if all its magic power was used for defense.

“I can get out of the way,” said Roland with a smile. “However, while you chase those people, can I visit your vast and beautiful forest? I’m told that the elves are very hospitable.” It was a blatant threat, imbued with sarcasm.

The World Tree knew that Roland was implying that he would kill her compatriots if she chased his friends.

“Are all human beings who use floating cities equally disgusting?” The World Tree’s heart was filled with rage, but she said in the same cold tone, “Mordenkainen was exactly like this.”

Roland smiled casually and didn’t say anything

Seeing that Roland wasn’t provoked, the World Tree knew that she didn’t have a chance. She dismissed the giant energy ball in her hand and flew away.

The ten Mages who tried to flee on land all stopped.

Because they couldn’t fly, they hadn’t escaped very far. They were all relieved to detect that the pressure from the World Tree was moving away.

The Mage who was responsible for streaming looked at the gigantic floating city in the sky with admiration in his eyes.

“He’s only a Legend, yet he has scared off the most powerful Demigod in the main plane on a floating city. That’s so awesome.”

The netizens in the stream channel almost posted the same comment at the same time.

“I want to drive a floating city too!”
