Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 249 - 243: Three Legends

On the city wall, players gazed in astonishment at the circular area in mid-air that glimmered with a silvery-gray light.

"Look fast, what is that?"

"It looks like a teleportation gate! I saw something similar when the Goddess battled the Demigod before."

"A teleportation gate?! Are the Half-Beasts about to summon something again? Could it be another Demigod?"

For a moment, many players grew wary.

The light gate continued to flicker, with ethereal battle chants echoing in the distance, accompanied by a vast, sacred aura and an overwhelming pressure... Three silvery-gray figures emerged from it.

They were three Half-Beasts, each about three meters tall.

They wore ornate armor, carried longbows on their backs, and wielded battle axes enveloped in snow and ice. Their faces were painted with peculiar oils, and they wore expressions of fervent devotion, their entire bodies glowing with a silvery-gray light.

After their appearance, an imposing and majestic voice slowly resonated:

"Totem Guardian Kao..."

"Totem Guardian Radis..."

"Totem Guardian Bredon..."

"Summoned by the True God’s Oracle, here to guard our master’s faith and punish the minions of the Evil God!"

Totem Guardians!

These were three Totem Guardians, each possessing Legendary Power!

Upon hearing that majestic and sacred voice, the Half-Beast army erupted into deafening cheers.

Totem Guardians, the divine envoys under the God of Winter and Hunting, Uller, were saints ascended to Uller’s Divine Country, constituting a formidable force under Uller’s command.

In the faith war, Totem Guardians were high-end combat power summoned by the Half-Beasts to compensate for the lack of their race’s inherent strength.

However, since the power of the Totem Guardians fundamentally belonged to Uller and could not be replenished, they could not be summoned for an extended period.

Typically, after a war or a significant loss of power, Totem Guardians had to return to the Divine Country, or they risked perishing.

Yet, even so, Totem Guardians were enough to become the trump card of the Half-Beasts...

This was a power capable of turning the tide of a battle!

For a moment, the morale of the Half-Beasts, frustrated by their siege failure, was reignited.

But as they looked at the three suddenly-appearing Totem Guardians, the players on the city walls felt both curious and worried:

"Damn... Flying Half-Beasts? And they’re glowing?"

"What is this? Could it be the Demigods we’ve heard about?"

"Gah... Is it a BOSS?"

"Feels so strong... The scale of the summoning is vast, and they don’t seem friendly at all..."

Though curiosity filled the players’ eyes, Natural Saintess Alice’s expression turned solemn, and a trace of seriousness and worry appeared in her gaze:

"Those are Totem Guardians with Legendary strength!"

Her tone was very serious.

"Holy crap! Legendary? What’s their level?"

"Are they on the same level as the Shadow Dragon from the Underworld?"

"Damn... Isn’t that a disaster? Three Legendaries!"

Upon hearing Alice’s words, the players were shocked.

However, there were some players from the initial test who were nonchalant:

"What’s to panic about! For opponents of this strength, we just need to summon the Goddess’s avatar. The Goddess is the true big BOSS, and she even annihilated a Demigod. What are mere Legendaries?"

"Exactly! And isn’t Divine Favored Zero capable of standing against Legendaries too? She’s the powerful NPC who took down the Shadow Dragon!"

However, unlike the excited players, Alice’s expression grew increasingly grave as she shook her head, saying,

"No, it’s different."

"The last time Mother Goddess took action, it was because the opponent’s Demigod acted first... But this time, it’s a faith war. If Mother Goddess intervenes, it might give them a reason to summon a Demigod."

"And Demigod-level combat can easily expose Mother Goddess’s true identity!"

"In short...the risks are colossal."

Saying this, Alice couldn’t help but turn her head to look at Divine Favored Zero standing on the tower wall, her expression filled with concern.

Zero had said she would deal with high-level enemies.

But... even though she had Mother Goddess’s divine favor, she was ultimately only at the Gold level; how could she handle three Legendaries?

Yet, to Alice’s surprise, even at the sight of the Half-Beasts summoning three Totem Guardians with Legendary strength, Divine Favored Zero’s expression remained unchanged, leaving people guessing what she was thinking...

...

Three Totem Guardians with Legendary strength!

Seeing the summoned silvery figures, Lionheart King Imsh’s expression was filled with delight.

Under the premise of not having a Demigod take action, the strength of these Totem Guardians was already quite powerful. They could undoubtedly influence the strategic outcome of the entire faith war!

In fact... with the current displayed strength of the Elf Clan, three Legendaries were enough to crush them.

If leveraging the Totem Guardians allowed the Half-Beast Army to encircle without an attack, thus achieving their objective effortlessly, that would be ideal!

With 30,000 troops, nearly a tenth of the Half-Beast population and all young and strong, Imsh hoped to minimize losses if possible.

With this in mind, Imsh’s spirit lifted, and he promptly stepped forward, giving a bow to the three Totem Guardians, respectfully saying,

"Praise Winter! Praise the Hunt! Praise the Great Father God! Half-Beast King Imsh, at your service, O Divine Envoys!"

"Please, O Divine Envoys, take action! Destroy the Elves within the fortress! Eradicate these vile infidels!"

After saying this, Imsh looked expectantly at the three Totem Guardians in the sky.

However, the Totem Guardians’ response left him slightly disappointed:

"King of the Half-Beasts, the Elves should still be handled by the Half-Beasts themselves, as we have our own tasks."

"Let the army attack, we will remove any threats to you, but the battles within the mortal realm, we will not interfere..."

Their voices were majestic and irrefutable.

Not interfere?

Lionheart King Imsh’s face turned somewhat unsightly...

But, being that the opposing side was revered Totem Guardians and divine envoys of the Father God, he couldn’t voice any complaints.

Moreover, by this time, he roughly understood Father God’s purpose in having him launch a 30,000-strong army in a faith war.

Knowing was one thing, but as the King of the Half-Beasts, it was still somewhat difficult to bear.

However... all of this was also for Father God’s greater ascension.

A further ascended Father God implied more possibilities for the Half-Beasts.

Just as the High Priest had stated, sometimes necessary sacrifices are needed.

Lionheart King Imsh’s expression fluctuated in uncertainty.

Yet, after a few moments, he took a deep breath, drew a bow-shaped symbol on his chest, and gritted his teeth to order:

"Pass the order, commence the second siege!"

"This time, full-scale attack with the army!"
