Chapter Thirteen: The Explanation That Caused the Elf to Collapse
"This monster is more terrifying than the pig-headed man."
"We were so close to success, but we died at this moment. It's truly tragic."
...
The elf began to despair.
"No, even if we die, we will take him with us. Our sacrifice is worthwhile. Let us use our deaths to buy freedom for our people and to set sail on the ship of hope."
However, their despair did not make them surrender.
Instead, they seemed to have a final burst of energy, and their offensive became even stronger.
Looking at this group of "selfless" elves, Loya felt a little embarrassed, and he had the illusion that he was the villain.
"Hmph, don't think that just because you act all heroic and righteous, I'll be merciful. You despicable fallen elves, you attacked me first!" Loya forcibly suppressed his strange thoughts, preparing to deliver the final blow and end this inexplicable conflict.
"You little minions of the evil dragon, don't even think about being presumptuous!" Suddenly, a cry of alarm came from afar.
More handsome elves rushed over.
Yes, the commotion here is quite loud, and since it's so close to the ship, many elves have sensed it.
At first, the elves didn't take it seriously, believing that the elven warriors guarding the area were more than capable of dealing with the enemy. But it wasn't long before the fire raged, making the elves realize that the enemy was no ordinary foe.
Unfortunately, the journey took time, and even this short delay resulted in heavy casualties among the elven warriors, leading to a tragic end.
"Xi'ou, you retreat first, we'll deal with him." A mature-looking elven female warrior shouted loudly to the young male elf who had previously used [Triple Star Alignment].
“Sister Raffi, we’re finished, so let’s keep fighting,” Theo said nonchalantly.
"Yes, we're finished. The power of this monstrous dragon has corrupted us. I can feel my body completely breaking down."
"This is a critical moment for the tribe. Our severe injuries will only delay our progress. We cannot continue. So please let us continue the fight."
...
The teammates from Western Europe also shouted resolutely.
"Siou, Wendi, Kam..." The supporting elven warriors were all heartbroken, their eyes filled with tears.
"Damn it, you're all crazy! I just wanted to borrow a boat, just hitch a ride, is it really necessary for you to act like this?" Loya's mentality was slightly broken. What he wanted to do was not some heinous crime, so how did it turn out like this?
Loya turned his head and glanced at Raffi, thinking, "We have to retreat. These crazy elves are all very powerful. Especially this young lady, she seems to be a Silver-level transcendent."
"Hitch a ride?" Suddenly, a green figure shot over at a speed far exceeding that of the other elven warriors.
With a deafening roar, Loya only had time to hear a whoosh before a beautiful, valiant female elf wielding a giant green sword appeared more than twenty meters away. A powerful aura emanated from her, along with a rich aura of nature and life force, causing nearby plants to revel in their growth and multiply wildly.
Although fire controls wood.
However, when wood becomes too powerful, fire will be countered and restrained.
Now, the flames here are noticeably dimmer due to the suppression of the wood.
"Great, the clan leader has arrived."
"This time, the monster dragon is doomed."
"To avenge everyone."
...
The surrounding elven warriors were overjoyed.
Western Europe, which had been fighting to the death... also stopped.
“A supernatural being suspected to be at the peak of the Silver level.” Loya looked at Vina, suddenly feeling immense pressure.
“Raffi, heal Theo and the others. I will never abandon my companions. I will lead everyone to escape this island intact as much as possible,” Vina instructed.
The Western Europeans were moved by these words, but they were also anxious.
"Chief, no need."
"Our bodies seem to be infected by fire poison."
"There's no need to waste everyone's resources for our sake. Those resources should be used in more critical areas, which might increase the tribe's chances of success."
...
Raffi rushed over, angrily saying, "Enough with the nonsense, just listen to me."
The other elven warriors also comforted them, saying, "That's right, Xiou, don't refuse. We've already sacrificed enough; we can't afford to lose you all so easily."
Vina looked at Loya and asked again, "By boat?"
Loya retreated step by step, "That's right, I came to hitch a ride. Are all you elves crazy? Why are you attacking me?"
Loya felt truly wronged. Many wizards, though evil, considered himself a kind wizard. More importantly, he hadn't done anything bad to the elven tribe; he genuinely meant no harm.
Vina was dumbfounded: "Take a boat?"
Lafite was dumbfounded: "Get on a boat?"
Western Europe was even more dumbfounded: "You're here to catch a boat? You also want to escape this Emerald Lake island?"
All the elves looked at Loya, their expressions dazed and strange.
Loya didn't understand, but still nodded: "Yes, it's too dangerous here. I want to leave this island and go to other, wider worlds. However, there's water all around, and I'm a fire dragon, so when I saw the big ship here, I thought I'd hitch a ride to save some energy."
"Ahhh, no, I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I don't believe it..." After hearing Loya's explanation, Theo completely broke down. Tears streamed down his face uncontrollably.
"You're lying to us. You're a minion of the dragon, and you've come to destroy our ship."
"Yes, how could you possibly be here to hitch a ride? How could you possibly be like us elves, fighting against that green dragon?"
"Waaaaah, Chieftain..."
...
Many elves are vehemently questioning Loya.
Their mentality seems to have collapsed as well.
His expression was clearly abnormal, like that of a madman.
However, some of them started crying while shouting.
