Irina borrowed the strength from the Tree of Life, and drew in all the elven powerhouses that were surrounding her.

  And because they were afraid to hurt the holy Tree of Life, all the elves restrained themselves when they attacked. Even though Helena had ordered them to give it their all, nobody wanted to be responsible for the aftermath of destroying the holy tree.

  That person would definitely become the sinner of the elves, and no one knew what punishment he would face after the queen came out of her seclusion.

  The Night Elves rescued from the cages had successfully escaped with the help from the other elves. They rode horses and magic beasts, and joined the south-moving caravan.

  This was an uprising on a massive scale that almost blazed through the whole Wind Forest. There were even many noble elves taking part in the action, providing cover and helping the lowly elves to escape.

  And those private soldiers who attempted to pursue the elves stopped after Mag struck down the nobles leading them.

  Who was that?

  That was Alex!

  Nobody had the courage to face him without a 10th-tier magic caster leading them.

  The escaping elves began to converge, and their numbers had already exceeded 10,000. Under the arrangements of the Night Elves’ core members, they began to get into a formation. The elves who had no combat abilities were protected in the center, with elites leading the way in the front and covering their backs. They were no longer in a disarray.

  Although these lowly elves were mostly not too powerful, there were still plenty of 5th-tier and 6th-tier magic casters and archers among them. When there was a big number of them, the minor nobles who came with their soldiers had to stay away from them.

  After making sure that all the elves who left willingly had joined the caravan, Mag hovered above them on the purple-striped griffin’s back and escorted them out of the Wind Forest toward the goblins’ territory in the south.

  Yesterday, Irina wrote a letter to the goblins’ chief, asking for permission to go through their territory. Although she didn’t receive a reply, judging from their previous situation when they borrowed the underground cavern, passing through their territory shouldn’t be a problem.

  As long the Night Elves entered the goblins’ territory, they were basically safe.

  The relationship between the goblins and the elves was not harmonious. Their friendliness toward the Night Elves was based on the idea of “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.

  However, the goblins would never allow the pursuing troops from the Wind Forest to enter their lands.

  “We’ve got to move faster.” Mag looked at the sky above the Tree of Life that was dyed with all kinds of colors by magic with a severe expression. Although there was the reinforcement from the Tree of Life, he could still imagine the intense battle that Irina was experiencing right now.

  After stopping three troops of elven soldiers from getting close, and making sure that the elven leader could lead all the elves out of the Wind Forest, Mag turned around on Ah Zi’s back, and rushed to the Tree of Life.

  The intense sounds of explosions got increasingly loud and clear. Life Square had already been turned into a ruin with rubble and craters everywhere, and many high-ranking elves were moaning on the ground.

  And right at the center of that combat zone, Irina was standing just above the Tree of Life, holding her magic caster’s staff. Holy Light erupted every time she swung it. It collided with countless crashing spells before exploding amid dazzling sparks.

  The Tree of Life was emitting a dazzling green light as it formed an orb-shaped green barrier around Irina, and repelled most of the magical attacks, giving her a powerful protection.

  However, the light of the green barrier was getting weaker rapidly, as if it was going to burst open any time.

  Once the barrier broke, those countless magical attacks would land on Irina, and this battle would be over too.

  Helena had already received the latest situation report. The slaves’ riots occurred very suddenly, and they almost took place simultaneously. This was completely beyond her expectations.

  Furthermore, Alex’s obstruction had caused them to lose the chance to rectify the situation. Currently, the Wind Forest was in total chaos, so there was no way she could personally lead a troop into the goblins’ territory to pursue those traitors.

  “Irina, I was right about you. Compared to the other youngsters, your tactics and methods are already more mature than Her Majesty The Queen’s then.” Helena looked at Irina with regret in her eyes. She had once pinned high hopes on her, and even now she didn’t announce the fact that she had a child with Alex.

  “If the queen wants to blame someone, then let her blame me. In order to protect this forest from invasions happening ever again, I will have to kill you today,” Helena said with a cold expression. She reached into the crystal ball in front of her, and slowly retrieved a pure black magic caster’s staff.

  Her presence instantly became as deep as the starry sky. The Starry Sky Domain that was torn apart by Holy Light began to consolidate again, and the stars started to light up and move across the sky.

  Looking at Irina’s fragile barrier, the eyes of the elves taking part in the combined attack lit up. Their efforts were indeed still effective.

  “Helena has indeed concealed her power. Princess Irina may not be able to hold on any longer.” Vincent at the periphery of the battlefield watched Helena draw out her black magic caster’s staff, and then looked at Irina’s barrier that was about to crumble. He grabbed Blour who was about to rush forward by his arm, and stuffed an amulet into his hands. He looked into his eyes, and said in a low voice, “Our people should be already in the caravan moving southward. I don’t expect you to make them rich and prosperous, but I hope you can lead them to a life of freedom. Leave this to me. Go now.”


  “Father.” Blour stared at the chief’s amulet in his hands, and then looked up at Vincent as his eyes became red immediately.

  “Let me be the one to leave our name in history.” Vincent pushed Blour hard, and then retrieved the silver longsword at his waist. He leaped onto a white eagle that dove down, and then dashed toward Elliot, who was the closest to him. He was a rare 9th-tier knight in the elf race.

  And at the periphery of the battlefield, dozens of elves that were hiding rushed toward the center of the battlefield, nocking their arrows and lighting up their magic caster’s staffs as they attacked those elves that were attacking Irina.

  Bam!

  Right then, the barrier that the Tree of Life provided for Irina finally shattered after withstanding countless magical attacks.

  “Thank you for waiting.”


  Right at that moment, a low voice exploded next to all the elves’ ears as a purple lightning flew over from the sky afar, and dove straight into the Starry Sky Domain, aiming at Helena. It appeared in front of her in an instant.

  The Tian Du sword was unsheathed, and the razor-sharp blade tore open the pitch-black Starry Sky Domain before swinging downward at Helena, who was raising her magic caster’s staff above her head.

  The purple-striped griffin also revealed its sharp claws and swiped at Helena.

  An obvious hint of panic flashed across Helena’s eyes. It was very dangerous for a magic caster to let a close combat knight get close to her. Numerous one-time magical barriers appeared around her, and the magic caster’s staff that was pointing at Irina was retrieved, and then pointed at Mag as she shouted, “Falling Stars!”
