Green Monster Epic

Chapter 715: Kill Zone in the Gobi Desert

Alicia and her group of eight, accompanied by a giant eagle with legendary strength, parted ways with the human team and led their team over the eastern foothills of the Katol Mountains. They then landed on the ground, disguised as an ordinary group of adventurers, and detoured to the west.

Going further north would be the territory of the Drow. With the Drow's vindictive nature, if they noticed this group of powerful elves flying ostentatiously over their territory, they would definitely send a large group of Drow experts to chase and intercept them.

Although Alicia and her team were not afraid of fighting the Drow, this was not elven territory after all, and it was always better to avoid risks.

Therefore, Alicia and her team followed their planned route, bypassing the Drow territory and passing through the depths of the Tagan Desert to reach the borders of the Elven Kingdom.

Everything went smoothly. Seeing the Tagan Desert, with its yellow sand flying everywhere, right in front of them, the eight elves felt a little relieved. Unfortunately, their carefully planned layout had ultimately become a joke. After returning, they would inevitably be ridiculed by their colleagues, which made everyone feel somewhat unhappy.

In the sky, the legendary giant eagle spread its wings and glided along, acting as a lookout for the eight elven powerhouses, occasionally letting out a crisp eagle cry, echoing and communicating with the elven partners on the ground.

"…I didn't expect this Hobgoblin leader to appear rough and fond of adventure, but in reality, he is cautious and prudent. In the future, he will probably be a troublesome stumbling block for our kingdom."

Alicia kept recalling the layout she had designed in the valley at the time. Even now, she didn't think there were any mistakes in their actions, but the ultimate failure was somewhat puzzling. The only explanation might be the Hobgoblin's cautious nature.

This time, Alicia had gone through fierce competition with her four colleagues of the same level to obtain the opportunity to go south and assassinate the Hobgoblin leader, but she never expected it to end up like this. The resentment in her heart was not as indifferent as when she faced the human demigod Lucas before.

"After this action, the Hobgoblins will definitely be more careful, and the wilderness will not sit idly by and watch him be assassinated. There will definitely be targeted arrangements. At least for a hundred years, I'm afraid we won't be able to take any action against him."

"It's just a pity that I didn't get to personally exchange blows with this Hobgoblin and witness the majesty of this rumored number one powerhouse in the Northern Territory, to see whether his heavy sword is more powerful, or my Wind God Moon Chasing Bow is sharper!!"

Her feet moved swiftly, without hesitation, but in reality, Alicia's mind had already drifted to a distant place, with countless thoughts rising and falling.

A gust of wind blew in her face, stirring up countless dust. Looking around, most of the sky was covered by the yellow sand. Without Alicia saying anything, everyone plunged forward, their figures quickly disappearing into the sand, and no one knew their whereabouts.

Five days later, on the northern border of the Tagan Desert, the fine sand was gradually replaced by large, rounded pebbles. The thin veils covering the heads of the eight dusty elves were covered in yellow dust. Seeing the edge of the desert and the Gobi Desert, everyone could finally take off their headscarves and restore their original appearance.

"Pfft!!"

Slap, slap, slap!!!

Everyone began to tidy up the dust on their bodies and restore their original appearance. The long lifespan of elves made their lives somewhat boring, so they were always somewhat obsessed with art, etiquette, and other things that could pass the time.

Now that they were not far from the territory of the Elven Kingdom, the eight elves in the field, as legendary powerhouses, would naturally not allow others to see their embarrassed side.

"In another two thousand three hundred miles, we will enter the territory of my Elven Kingdom…"

After everyone had tidied up, Alicia waved her hand, and everyone could finally continue forward, and they no longer needed to conserve their strength and energy. One after another, lithe figures flew into the sky, more than ten meters high, and moved through the air.

On the horizon in the distance, there were gradually more undulations, and faint patches of green appeared. For everyone who had been tired of the yellow sand for days, there was an unspeakable sense of relief in their hearts.

However, just as everyone had relaxed their guard and became somewhat lax, eager to hurry on their way, countless spikes, vines, and stone bullets suddenly rose from the Gobi Desert, where rocks and yellow sand were mixed. They flew out from the ground, covering the trajectory of Alicia and her party.

Among them, there were also dozens of powerful bows, arrows, and javelins, hidden among these magical constructs, silently shooting at their respective targets.

"Awoo~~~"

The giant eagle, which had been following the elves' pace in the sky, belatedly issued a warning. At the same time, it flapped its wings, and its streamlined body, nearly ten meters long, dived straight down, heading straight for a target on the ground.

"Whoosh!!!"

Just as the magical surge triggered by the magic scroll had just risen, a lithe figure had already leaped from the ground. A spike locked onto a male elf at the back of the elven team, and the golden heavy sword in his hand burst out with brilliant light, stabbing forward swiftly.

"Enemy attack!!! Scatter!!!"

Alicia and the others were all battle-hardened warriors. Suddenly encountering an ambush, they immediately reacted, drawing their respective weapons to block and parry, while flying higher into the sky.

Swish, swish, swish!!!

Alicia turned around and drew her bow, firing a series of arrows. The arrows shone with light, and several long arrows fell into the earth and wood magic constructs less than three meters below. Suddenly, bursts of brilliant light exploded, and violent energy storms lifted countless stones and spikes that were shot from the ground.

"Ah!!!"

Just hundreds of meters away, a companion who was somewhat separated from the team suddenly let out a scream, and a bloody aura spread across the sky. Looking over, the companion was frantically approaching Alicia and her team. Less than ten meters behind him, a familiar figure was revealing a cold and resolute killing intent, and unceremoniously swung the golden heavy sword in his hand again.

"How dare you!!!"

Alicia quickly pulled the longbow in her right hand, and a white energy light arrow suddenly appeared on the bowstring as the longbow was fully drawn. Just as Alicia's syllables exploded, the right hand holding the string relaxed, and the light arrow instantly disappeared in front of the longbow, appearing in front of the attacker wielding the heavy sword in the blink of an eye.

The light flashed before his eyes, and Allen, with his Hobgoblin face, sneered slightly, and the heavy sword in his hand was resolutely slashed forward.

"Hmph!!"

The light arrow grazed Allen's left shoulder, and a few broken scales splashed on the tough and powerful Black Dragon scales, and a little dark green blood flower bloomed at the same time.

Six meters in front of Allen, the elven legendary powerhouse who had been locked on by him before, and whose left abdomen had been opened with a large hole by a instant slash, watched as the heavy sword, almost the same size as himself, fell. The elven legendary powerhouse, holding two single-handed longswords in both hands, could only desperately swing the longswords in his hands with despair in his eyes, and a series of fine sparks flashed on the blade of the heavy sword.

However, the gap in absolute power could not be changed by the elven legend's countless stabs of the long swords against the heavy sword, attempting to use skill to deflect the immense force. As the heavy sword finally smashed down with the force of Mount Tai upon the elven legend's chest, leaving him with no way to avoid it, the elven legend could only cross his swords in front of him, making a futile resistance like an ant trying to shake a tree.

Crack!! Crack!!

The sound of bones breaking was incessant. The elven legend's chainmail had his own two long swords embedded into it, all the way to the hilt. The chest cavity visibly caved in, clearly with the entire row of ribs already broken. Before his rapidly falling body even hit the ground, the blood and bits of flesh constantly spurting from his mouth indicated that his internal organs had suffered a heavy blow.

Exchanging a light injury for the serious injury, or even near-death, of a legendary powerhouse was, in Allen's opinion, well worth it. A provocative smile appeared on the corner of Allen's mouth as he used the Misty Steps to split his figure into three, rushing towards another elven legend.

In the sky above, there were also seven or eight more legendary powerhouses, and on the ground, three or four teams, nearly a hundred strong, of drow spellcasters, either locking onto an opponent and launching an attack, or chanting spells with rising and falling tones, outlining magical models, preparing to cast spells.

Among them, one person was particularly eye-catching: the drow demigoddess mother, Penny Lai, wearing revealing light gauze that vaguely revealed her graceful figure, was waving the sexy leather whip in her hand with a smile as bright as a flower, her face filled with indescribable excitement and agitation.

Quge, the gnoll leader, vented all his resentment and anger on the elven legend in front of him. His partner was Lilian, the drow mother who had occupied the old territory of his Crow Claw tribe. Although the two did not cooperate very well, they were still considered to be at peace.

As for why Allen, the very person who had just been assassinated, would suddenly appear in this Gobi Desert, and why he, along with Quge, the gnoll leader who hated the drow the most, would join forces with the drow to deal with the elves, that has to be told from six days ago when Allen was first assassinated.

It is said that after Allen was suddenly assassinated, he ran wildly all the way, using his fastest speed to return to the Moor Fortress. With a command, the entire fortress city entered a state of war readiness. Although merchants were not completely banned, the on-duty army and the spellcaster squads controlling the city defense magic defense equipment were already fully prepared.

However, after completing all of this, Allen did not stay, but directly sent people to Green Lake Town and the Keleema tribe to inform them of the invasion of the elven and human powerhouses, so that they could be on guard. At the same time, Allen even passed through the canyon and arrived at Nasir Fortress, briefly telling Quge, Tim, and the others about his encounter, and then led the persuaded Quge to quickly head north.

Allen thought clearly that this assassination by the human and elven powerhouses was a lone operation. After their tracks were exposed and they lost the opportunity to assassinate, it was impossible for them to stay too long. They would definitely have to quickly part ways and return to their respective territories.

Therefore, although he ordered the tribe to be prepared for defense, he did not believe in his heart that the enemy would be so arrogant as to dare to attack a tribal fortress with a population of more than 100,000 and complete city defense works with a team of only a dozen people.

Moreover, the other party was deep into the wilderness. The allies and alliance members around the Green Field tribe would be able to arrive in no more than two days after receiving the news. Under such circumstances, unless the other party was crazy, they would make such a choice.

Since the tribe was not in danger, then he did not need to be stationed in the city. If the enemy dared to do the first day of the lunar month, then he could also do the fifteenth. It was only natural that they dared to assassinate him, and he would counterattack them.

The only trouble was that Allen did not have many strong people at his disposal. The three-race alliance was now barely considered to be advancing and retreating together, but the legendary powerhouses of the other two races were weak. In addition, people had to be left behind to guard against possible attacks and harassment. The truly available powerhouses might only be one or two people.

During the running process, Allen had already figured out these joints. In the end, he thought of a force that had the ability to mobilize a large number of legends, and at the same time had a deep blood feud with the elves - the Hochia Federation.

If he told the other party this news, then Allen believed that with the drow's incompatible nature with the elves, they would not be able to seize such a good opportunity.

Especially since the drow have always wanted to ease relations with the wilderness members in the Green Field and Thorn Ring organizations, Allen believed that as long as he personally came forward, the other party would definitely sell him this favor and take action together to deal with this group of in-depth elven powerhouses.

As for the possibility that the drow might take the opportunity to cooperate with Allen to suddenly launch a murderous attack on Allen, this possibility cannot be said to be non-existent, but the consequences of doing so are also difficult for the drow to bear. After all, the Hochia Federation has just been accepted by the Mansa Alliance and become a member. If they suddenly launch an assassination of one of the five demigods of the alliance at this time, and the news spreads, the members who are already dissatisfied with the drow's joining will definitely not be able to tolerate their existence.

Not to mention, the probability of successfully assassinating Allen is not high. In addition to the Spider Queen's avatar, which cannot be easily used, the drow only have Penny Lai, this demigod. No one can guarantee that they can definitely assassinate the Beorning. If the assassination fails, then there will be no room for maneuver between the two sides. Allen may not deal with the drow in the short term in order to take care of the overall situation, but in the long run, he will not make the drow feel better and will definitely seal the drow north of the Cartur Mountains.

On the way north with Quge, when the other party heard that Allen was going to cooperate with the drow, Quge almost chopped Allen from behind with an axe.

However, in the end, he was persuaded by Allen, and was willing to ambush the group of elven powerhouses who had not provoked him with Allen, and the reason was very simple, that Quge's own life had reached its limit, and he had at most a few years left before his soul would return to the goddess's kingdom.

Since the result was already destined, then Quge also wanted to make his last life more valuable, and what could be more valuable to Quge than the oath made by Allen in his own true name!!

The oath was also very simple, that Allen promised to maintain the current state of the three races in his lifetime, and allow the Crow Claw tribe to continue to be passed down.

This was already Allen's layout. Although it was inevitable to annex the gnoll tribe in the future, it seemed like a better choice to retain an external false name for the tribe and give it an extra seat in the alliance.

As for finally persuading the drow, it was almost the same as Allen's initial idea, and it didn't take much effort. After hearing Allen's invitation in the Cold Wind Post, Penny Lai, Lilian, and other mothers immediately agreed and gathered the city's elite at the fastest speed and headed west.

I originally wanted to write a scene where Allen was ambushed again and then delayed, but after thinking about it, with his character and vigilance, after suffering so many losses, I'm afraid it would be difficult to be fooled again, so I simply changed the branch line and turned it into a scene where the protagonist counter-killed the other party.
