Chapter 58: The Aura of Slaughter
Chapter 58: The Aura of Slaughter
"No, we must find out the truth as soon as possible." Zhou Yuan watched as the energy display continued to rise sharply, and finally made up his mind.
"Iron Guard, Yang Suo, deploy robot warriors on the orc-human battlefield to eliminate all resisting orcs. Have the robots rendezvous with us at the Spirit Palace."
"Yes." Tie Wei and Yang Suo piloted a frigate and instantly arrived at the battlefield between humans and orcs. After deploying the robots, the frigate immediately followed Zhou Yuan's main force.
When a thousand robot warriors landed behind the battlefield where humans and orcs were fighting, the humans and orcs felt as if these thousand robots had fallen from the sky. After the robots landed together, the earth seemed to tremble with a rumbling sound.
Both humans and beastmen were stunned.
The orcs were already caught up in the excitement of the battle, their eyes bloodshot with anticipation. When they saw these human-like creatures, they mistook them for human reinforcements, and many of the approaching orcs immediately launched a counterattack.
The robot drew two swords from behind its back, accelerated suddenly, and charged towards the orcish position. These robots ran very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they were in front of the orcs. Before the orcs could react, the blood on the swords had already cooled, and the orcs had been dismembered and fell to the ground.
These robots wielded twin blades, their flashing lights making them appear to humans as if they possessed the art of teleportation. Wherever they went, rows and rows of orcs fell to the ground.
The orcs seemed to be frightened by the speed and method of killing, and many of them involuntarily retreated to both sides, leaving the center of the encirclement and annihilation of the humans.
After these robots rushed in, they surrounded the humans in a circle, protecting them in the center.
Eight hundred thousand orcs gradually surrounded the robot and the humans, layer upon layer.
The robot stared blankly at the circle of orcs.
Suddenly, a thousand robots simultaneously launched a circular attack radiating from the humans. Wherever the twin blades struck, the orcs had no time to dodge and were slashed down. The speed was so fast that the orcs fell five or six times.
After this exchange of blows, the robot quickly retreated to its original position. This attack and retreat took only about ten seconds.
Humans were shocked by this terrifying fighting power, and the orcs were also stunned. The circle they formed slowly moved outwards, seemingly afraid to get any closer.
"Shoot them!" the orc chieftain commanded.
Humans quickly grabbed their shields, huddled together, and formed a protective umbrella to shield themselves.
A barrage of arrows was fired, all aimed at the center, but to everyone's surprise, these arrows had no effect on the robot and were knocked to the ground.
While the orcs were still in shock, the robots all bent down, grabbed a handful of orc arrows, and threw them at the orcs. The robots were so powerful that each arrow made a whistling sound as it pierced the air, piercing through more than a dozen orcs in front and behind, and the orcs fell down in more than a dozen circles.
The robots bent down to pick up the arrows again, causing the orcs to panic and turn around and run back the way they came. The orcs in the inner circle were in trouble, as arrows pierced their chests again, and several more orcs fell down.
Hundreds of thousands of orcs scattered in panic, and those who were slow to escape were shot to death by arrows thrown by the robots.
These orcs fled for their lives, as if they were being chased by a vengeful ghost. A dozen minutes later, they disappeared from human sight.
Then, the thousand robots sheathed their weapons, lined up, and began to enter a narrow path, heading towards the Spirit Palace. The more than one thousand rescued humans, carrying shields and weapons, followed closely behind the robots.
When the large number of unmanned combat aircraft secretly deployed by Zhou Yuan appeared above the Spirit Palace, the elves were taken aback. They didn't know what these drones were, only that they were firing wildly at the fire dragons ahead. There were far more drones than fire dragons, and the fire dragons couldn't withstand the attack from the Imperial fleet's drones, falling to the ground one after another. In less than ten minutes, over 100,000 fire dragons were annihilated. Several hundred fire dragons, seeing the situation was dire, turned to flee, but were surrounded and wiped out one by one by the drones, not even having time to breathe fire.
There was no longer a single fire dragon or orc in the skies above the Elven Mountain Kingdom.
The living elves gathered in the square, looking up at the large number of drones hovering in the sky, and couldn't help but feel fear.
Just as the elves were gazing at the sky, a long line of humans seemed to be coming from the path ahead. When they saw the expressionless robots in front of them, the elves were extremely surprised. Fortunately, they immediately saw the humans behind them and gave up preparing to shoot their arrows.
The dozen or so people from the human Ji Kingdom had naturally been released from the Chenxiang Palace by the elves, but Dallas searched everywhere for Zhou Yuan and Wei Shan without success, so he had to give up.
The thousand robots arrived at the square and lined up in rows, seemingly waiting for something.
The elves and humans stepped back, and some of the elves unconsciously gripped their swords.
The nine elders stepped forward, stopping the elves from resorting to violence.
Just as the atmosphere was tense, a beam of light suddenly shone on the ground between the robot and the nine elders, and Zhou Yuanweishan appeared in front of the elves and humans. There was a gasp from the crowd, and the elves were also surprised. They had never seen a "superpowered person" who could appear by teleportation like this before.
Dallas couldn't help but step forward and ask with concern, "You two, what's wrong? I've been looking for you everywhere."
"Sorry, Dallas." Zhou Yuan couldn't help but smile apologetically.
"Who are you?" Odom the Whitebeard shouted.
“Odom, fellow elves and humans, I know you are very confused right now. I can’t explain it clearly in a short time.” Zhou Yuan’s mind raced as he thought about how to respond.
"Everyone, we are divine messengers." Helpless, Zhou Yuan resorted to the divine explanation again.
"Angel?"
"Yes. The god who governs this world accidentally discovered that this world had been invaded by evil forces, so he sent us here to slay demons and monsters."
"You mean those dragons and orcs?" Odom asked, still somewhat doubtful.
"It's not just dragons and orcs. People, about a thousand kilometers away from here, there is a huge tree, and that is the source of all evil."
"The Demon Tree!"
This time, Zhou Yuan and Wei Shan were surprised. Did they know about that big tree?
"Yes, the Demon Tree!"
"That place is too dangerous. Humans and elves have sent many joint expeditions, but none of them have survived."
"Is that so?" Zhou Yuan lowered his head in thought. According to Yang Suo's report, there were many insects and fire dragons guarding the Demon Tree.
"Everyone, there's no need to worry. Those so-called dangers are no problem for us divine messengers," Zhou Yuan said with a smile, seeing the puzzled looks on the faces of the elves and humans.
"Shanmei, could you please conjure up a human sword for me?"
"Okay, big brother." Wei Shan stretched out his right hand, and a human sword appeared out of thin air in his right hand. Everyone was startled and took a half step back.
"Shanmei, transform into another silver arrow of the elves."
“Okay.” Wei Shan stretched out her left hand, and the silver arrow commonly used by elves appeared in her left hand.
The elves and humans were stunned by Wei Shan's magical transformations.
A moment of silence fell over Linggong Square.
Zhou Yuan found it amusing; Shan Mei was quite obedient and cooperative, which startled a group of elves and humans.
"Divine messenger, the journey is long and fraught with danger, please be careful." Odom was kind-hearted. Odom had been thinking to himself for a while now, no wonder he felt these two were unusual in the Ji Kingdom castle, and had glanced at them a few more times.
"Odom, thank you. But I have a request..." Zhou Yuan seemed hesitant to speak.
“Messenger of God, just give the order.”
"I dare not give orders, but I hope that a few elves and humans will accompany us to the Demon Tree."
Odom turned around, his white beard flowing, and shouted, "Who is willing to go?" He looked like an old general with a white beard, standing at the front of the battlefield, shouting to his men, "Who is willing to fight?"
From the elven ranks, Dallas, a male elf, and a female elf stepped forward, while from the human ranks, three sword-wielding warriors took their places.
“Okay.” Zhou Yuan nodded repeatedly.
“Odom, let’s set off for the Magic Tree now.”
"Divine messenger, please wait."
"what happened?"
"The Demon Tree is too far away. If we walk, it will probably take a month. We need to get supplies and weapons."
"Yes, that's true. Dallas, please have the three of you prepare your things for the six of you as soon as possible. We'll be waiting for you here."
"it is good."
The three Dallas elves quickly left the square, and five minutes later, each carrying two backpacks, they handed one of the backpacks to three humans.
Zhou Yuan was very satisfied with the sprite's swift movements and efficient coordination.
"Everyone, we're setting off. Goodbye." Zhou Yuan and Wei Shan waved to the elves and humans, and suddenly the two of them disappeared from the spot. The three elves and three humans who accompanied them to the Demon Tree also suddenly disappeared.
The elves and humans noticed that the robots lined up in the square took off and rapidly ascended into the air, along with a large number of drones that were still circling overhead. These robots and drones slowly became tiny dots, gradually disappearing from their sight.
Dallas and the other five did not feel dizzy or lightheaded, and were directly teleported to the command room of the Tiancan Sniper Starship where Zhou Yuan and Wei Shan were located.
The moment the six people landed, they were captivated by the dazzling scene before them.
In the command center, several people were pointing and gesturing on a glowing holographic virtual screen, while in an empty space within the command center, a rotating, glowing three-dimensional sphere was in motion.
The six of them looked around; everything was so new and exciting. Outside the window, stars twinkled.
Zhou Yuan waved to the six people, and Dallas and the others involuntarily moved their feet, facing Zhou Yuan with restraint.
"Everyone, don't be shy. Shan, order the fleet to set off, target: the Demon Tree."
"Okay, big brother."
The six men in Dallas sensed a change in the scattered details outside the control room window.
“Dallas, come with me,” Zhou Yuan called to the six of them.
Zhou Yuan led the six people to the bottom side porthole, pointed, and said, "Take a look."
As Zhou Yuan pointed forward, the surroundings were shrouded in deep darkness, with stars emitting a mesmerizing pale white light. Suddenly, a huge sapphire leaped out and was embedded in the air!
"Dallas, this is the planet inhabited by you elves and humans."
"What? Why is it round, and why is it so blue?"
"Well, I'll tell you about that later. We're circling this planet now, and in another minute we'll be above the Magic Tree."
"One minute?" The six people were astonished.
"Correct."
A minute later, everyone saw a huge green tree with branches reaching into the clouds and leaves spreading out over a range of almost fifty kilometers.
