Chapter 398 - 51: Bizarre Elves, Dragon Descendant Player (Part 2)
"That’s out of the question. I’d end up wasting a lot of my own trump cards."
"Alright, enough of this nonsense!"
"All units, listen up! Into the sea!!!"
Sean had no desire to waste time on such matters, so under the watchful eyes of his two Player deputies, he immediately ordered the squad into the sea.
And so,
As Magic Power rippled from their specialized uniforms, each member of the hundred-man squad became an unseen weight, quickly descending into the ocean.
Moments later, the coastline fell silent once more.
However, not even three breaths after the allied unit disappeared...
...a fluorescent glow suddenly appeared among the trees closest to the shore.
The dark green glow quickly coalesced into winged, Elf-like creatures, one after another.
These creatures, although humanoid, were only the size of a palm.
Furthermore, when they opened their mouths as if speaking to each other, one could see that their mouths were full of fine, serrated teeth.
This alone made it clear that these Elf-like creatures were far from benevolent.
The creatures stared out at the ocean, chattering in an unintelligible language, before vanishing one by one.
——————
「On the shallow seabed.」
"Holy shit, what the hell are those things?"
"We’re High Tier Transcendents, for crying out loud! How did we not sense a single unusual fluctuation in Magic Power? This is completely illogical."
Looking toward the shore from the seabed, Sean’s two deputies stared wide-eyed at the vanishing Elves, their voices filled with disbelief as they communicated via Spiritual Transmission.
As the joint Vanguard Army of two Empires,
The strength of every one of the hundred teleported teams was not to be underestimated.
Their military ranks might not be high, but that was only because they were hastily recruited and selected for wartime.
So, the Vanguard Army’s strength was unquestionable.
For instance, Giant Demon Noom was a Tier Nine Transcendent.
And Sean, of course, was also a Tier Nine Transcendent.
As for his two deputies, both were at Tier Eight.
And while the soldiers in the squad were a bit weaker, they all possessed at least Middle-Low Tier strength.
Thus, equipped with standard-issue gear, none of the Vanguard Army units were considered weak.
For a Vanguard Army this powerful, their individual strength was just the beginning.
They also possessed a great number of strange and wondrous items.
Yet, despite all this, no one had detected the Elf-like creatures that had just appeared.
It was no wonder Sean’s two deputies were so astonished.
"In a different world, anything can happen!"
"But I have to say, the Ability these things have to block Magic Power detection is really quite impressive!"
"Remember what I just said? In a world like this, even self-preservation is an issue. You’d better know what you’re up against."
As he spoke, Sean’s brows furrowed.
"This world seems to be even more complicated than we imagined!"
"If I hadn’t felt that this coastline was a little too quiet just now and deliberately lingered here a bit longer, we might really not have discovered these things!"
"Quick, use the Communication Crystal to notify Noom and the others!"
"Tell them to get out of the forest as soon as possible!"
At this, Sean’s expression changed, and he immediately had his deputy contact their partner squad.
But it was obviously too late. A violent explosion suddenly erupted from within the coastal forest!
BOOM!!!
A terrifying tremor and roar!
Followed by a terrifying flash of Sword Qi!
The Sword Qi swept through the entire coastal forest like a crescent moon.
The next moment, a large number of trees were snapped in half at their trunks.
Sensing this, Sean’s expression changed instantly.
"Attention all units!!!"
"Prepare for battle, everyone! Follow me to support our allies!"
Sean’s Spiritual voice echoed in the minds of all his soldiers.
The next instant, he shot out of the ocean.
The moment he soared into the sky,
Sean finally saw the battle not far away!
Giant Demon Noom was roaring, locked in combat with a gigantic, Ten-winged Elf.
The giant Elf’s body, which seemed to be undergoing Elementalization, was already over three thousand meters tall.
It wielded a Scepter that looked like it was made of Wood, and with each light wave, massive tree roots erupted from the ground along the coastline, surging toward Giant Demon Noom like a tide of tangled spikes.
At the same time, around this terrifying giant Elf, there were also a large number of eight-winged and six-winged Elves!
Without a doubt, the weakest of these things was no weaker than a Middle Tier Transcendent.
And this leading Ten-winged Elf, its strength had undoubtedly entered the Peak of the High Tier.
The creature was casually battering Giant Demon Noom’s elemental form with overwhelming Power, time and again.
Each time, it sent Giant Demon Noom flying!
And behind Giant Demon Noom?
His squad was long gone!
In a single exchange, everyone except Giant Demon Noom and his three besieged High Tier Giant Demon deputies had been dealt with.
The Giant Demons below High Tier were almost instantly wiped out.
Seeing this terrifying sight, even Sean, a Player who had witnessed countless shocking spectacles,
couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine when faced with it himself.
"Beings from another world!"
"Stay!"
"Listen to the voice of the sea of trees, convert to the Divine Grace of our Father God, and you will receive true rebirth!"
The Elf Elder’s Spiritual voice, laced with Magic Power, began to resonate through the air.
Its voice was powerfully bewitching.
In just an instant, many of the Star Empire soldiers under Sean who had just risen into the air fell into illusions.
Clearly, this Ten-winged Elf Elder, despite fighting and suppressing Giant Demon Noom’s Power, had still discovered Sean’s squad—which had emerged from the sea under an invisibility effect—at the first opportunity!
Moreover, the moment the bewitching voice sounded, Sean discovered that the Empire’s standard-issue military uniforms quickly lost their invisibility effect under a wave of strange Magic Power.
"Damn it!!!"
"Everyone, wake up!!!"
Sean saw his squad’s predicament instantly. A mix of shock and fury welled up inside him as he roared.
A powerful blast of Spirit energy swept over them!
In an instant, the soldiers in the squad woke up in terror.
"Retreat!"
"Everyone, retreat toward the open sea!!!"
Sean’s voice continued to urgently ring out.
The soldiers, waking in a panic, began to fly rapidly toward the open sea in terror!
At the same time, Sean’s two Tier Eight Player deputies also roared into action!
The two of them channeled the Elements.
In an instant, they both transformed into thousand-meter-tall giants!
Without a word, they conjured tentacles of Magic Power to envelop the Middle-Low Tier Empire soldiers, then shot off toward the open sea as streaks of light.
Fortunately, nothing abnormal appeared in the ocean at this moment!
However, just as Sean’s two deputies were flying away protecting their soldiers, more than ten green lights suddenly shot out from the distant, collapsed sea of trees in pursuit!
’Trying to hunt my men?!’
"Let’s see if you can survive me first!"
Sean had no time to think, roaring into action at the first opportunity!
At the same time, Sean had transformed into a half-human, half-dragon being in just an instant!
Scales of a Metal Dragon covered Sean’s entire body, and at the same time, his figure instantly swelled to a height of five thousand meters!
The Metal scales, like armor, enveloped Sean’s entire being.
At this moment, Sean was like a terrifying armored giant!
"Dragon Descendant?"
After being smashed into the ground again, Giant Demon Noom also saw Sean’s figure.
His eyes widened in astonishment, which quickly turned into a look of joyful surprise!
"Well, I’ll be damned, Sean! You’re a Dragon Descendant?"
"You sure are good at keeping secrets! Looks like I’m not going to die this time after all! Hahaha!!!"
Giant Demon Noom forced a laugh.
"If you want to die, no one’s stopping you!"
"Hurry up and get out, what are you waiting for? Do you want to stay here forever like your squad?"
Sean’s voice was cold, and hearing this, Giant Demon Noom no longer held back!
The moment he rallied with a roar, Giant Demon Noom concentrated all his Magic Power into a giant blade of Sword Qi.
In an instant, he violently tore through the terrifying canopy of surging tree roots.
In a flash, he shot out and arrived at Sean’s side.
At the same time, two of the three High Tier Giant Demons also found an opportunity. Using their respective life-saving items, they escaped as if teleporting through Space.
At this, perhaps having seen Sean’s terrifying aura, the Ten-winged Elf Elder did not launch an immediate attack.
Instead, it stared fixedly at Sean.
Its expression was full of scrutiny and apprehension.
