Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 227 - 221: The Death of Little Xian Miao

Chapter 227 -221: The Death of Little Xian Miao

Upon hearing the crocodile’s words, the Black Dragon circling in the sky paused slightly.

Then the mercenaries clearly saw the Black Dragon’s breathing become noticeably heavier. Its head, already fearsome and terrifying, seemed even more sinister…

It turned its head, baring its teeth at the crocodile, eyes filled with an uncontrollable fury. The dragon’s aura, which had been relatively mild, suddenly turned violent, causing everyone—including the players—to involuntarily shiver.

*There was a glimmer of hope!*

The crocodile’s eyes brightened.

The more furious the Black Dragon was, the more it valued these elves!

The crocodile felt a slight confidence build inside him.

He simply tore away the cloth from the Female Elf’s mouth and shouted again at the Black Dragon,

“Black Dragon, quickly make the elves stop, or you’ll soon hear the screams of your clansmen!”

After the crocodile spoke, the flames of anger in the Black Dragon’s eyes burned even brighter.

With a “RUA!” it roared furiously,

“Shut up, you shameless human!”

“Black Dragon, Black Dragon! You’re the Black Dragon! Your whole family are Black Dragons! You vile creature! How dare you insult the great Silver Dragon Mairrel! You must face Lord Mairrel’s righteous punishment!”

Crocodile: …?

Silver Dragon?

This… How does that connect?

He stared blankly at the Black Dragon’s pitch-black scales and skull-like faceplate…

It’s a Black Dragon, isn’t it?

Could it be that this dragon… has a problem with its mind?

Seeing the human mercenary leader utterly confused, Little Xian Miao, who had a knife to her throat, chuckled softly,

“Hehe, Mairrel despises being called a Black Dragon the most.”

Crocodile: …

He… was at a loss for words.

However, even though the Black Dragon’s anger wasn’t triggered by his threat, the crocodile was pleasantly surprised to notice that, after his threat, many of the attacking elves did indeed show a slight hesitation.

Meanwhile, on the other side, players were either sending messages in the team channel or outright discussing in the game using the Elvish language…

“These mercenaries are using Boss Miao and the others as human shields!”

“No way! How despicable!”

“What should we do? Rescue the hostages first… or keep fighting? These mercenaries are already collapsing, completely demoralized, they’re almost free XP!”

“But… one of the mission objectives is to rescue our companions, right? If Little Xian Miao and the others die, will our reward be deducted?”

Hearing the players’ words, Li Mu, who was in command, also felt a trace of hesitation…

They were right.

Rescuing players was also one of the mission objectives!

However, it was Little Xian Miao who reacted the fastest…

The discussions in the team channel were also seen by her.

She quickly commandeered Li Mu’s microphone in the large-scale battle voice channel using her administrator status, took a deep breath, and shouted lavishly,

“Don’t listen to him! Keep fighting!”

“These mercenaries give a lot of experience! Even if we don’t complete mission objective 2, taking out the mercenary group is worth it!”

“If we die, so be it; it’s not like we can’t afford to die! What’s a resurrection coin, anyway?! For the players captured and killed on this mission, just report the number of lost resurrection coins to the Mengmeng Committee later, and I’ll cover the contribution points lost due to resurrection coins!”

“When this mission is over, I’ll treat everyone to barbecue in the central square!”

*Hmph!*

*They still dared to use her life as leverage!*

*Little Xian Miao hated being used as a tool like that!*

Even NPCs couldn’t do that!

Just over twenty resurrection coins! Little Xian Miao didn’t lack them!

Forget twenty, even if all fifty-eight players died, she could afford over a thousand resurrection coins!

Merely two hundred thousand contribution points!

She was paying for happiness!

In the Tianchao, there were many wealthy individuals who played online games, and Little Xian Miao was definitely not the one spending the most money.

However, considering the early players of Evra were either those with long online times or special talents, the most lavishly extravagant became Little Xian Miao, who “had a mine at home.”

Hearing Little Xian Miao’s words, the players’ eyes lit up,

“Wow! Boss is so generous!”

“No wonder she’s the number one tycoon in the entire server!”

With the wealthy player giving the go-ahead, why hesitate?

Each mercenary’s kill means at least ten thousand experience points!

The players cheered and ignored the crocodile’s threat, continuing their pursuit of the mercenaries!

“Bastards!”

Seeing the elves suddenly turn even more frenzied, the crocodile’s expression twisted.

When Little Xian Miao shouted, the system was set to Elvish.

Therefore, the crocodile didn’t understand what Little Xian Miao was saying…

But from the elves’ reactions, he could see they weren’t going to compromise…

This realization made the crocodile’s heart grow heavier, and confusion deepened.

What’s going on?

Weren’t they elves?

Would they rather their kin die than stop pursuing the enemy to save their companions?

When did they become so ruthless?

Vicious to enemies and to their own?

Are these… really elves?!

“Since that’s the case… then you shall die!”

With these thoughts, the crocodile made a ruthless decision, slashing his Longsword down hard…

Little Xian Miao felt a chill at her throat, a hot liquid seemed to pour out…

*Whoa? Did he slit my throat?*

She was momentarily stunned.

Little Xian Miao had turned off the pain settings, so she didn’t feel pain, but the gushing blood left her speechless…

She opened her mouth only to taste a constant flood of sweet, metallic liquid…

Then, Little Xian Miao felt her body grow cold, all strength draining away, leaving her body limp.

*Is this what dying feels like?*

*Even though I’ve never experienced it…*

*This feels so real…*

Since the game launched, she had exchanged for countless perfect resurrection attempts.

But Little Xian Miao hadn’t died that many times.

If she counted, it was only after she’d overdosed on a mana potion and jumped off the World Tree to clear her buffs…

That time, aside from the bungee-jump experience, she just ended up “splat,” dead and resurrected, without much sensation.

But this time, she genuinely experienced the sensation of dying.

Her face grew paler, eyelids heavier; Little Xian Miao saw Mairrel in the sky suddenly freeze…

Vaguely, she seemed to see the Little Black Dragon first in shock, then in unprecedented danger and anger.

In her ears… Mairrel’s fierce roar echoed.

In her daze, Little Xian Miao saw the Black Dragon diving in her direction…

Its face was filled with anxiety.

*Huh?*

Little Xian Miao’s consciousness had begun to blur, her thoughts drifting…

*Mairrel… is it angry because I was killed?*

*Silly dragon, doesn’t it know I can resurrect?*

*Hmph! It’s the one that told me to… suicide to teleport back…*

*In the end… it even took barbecue to coax… support…*

*Such a strange… creature…*

At this thought, Little Xian Miao finally ran out of energy.

Her consciousness… completely faded.

Player, Little Xian Miao, died.

Died of arterial bleeding, level 22.

Seeing the crocodile kill Little Xian Miao with a single slash, the players were in an uproar,

“Whoa! Boss Little Xian Miao died!”

“So tragic! There’s so much blood!”

“Died heroically! Worthy of praise and tears!”

“Avenge Sister Meow! Take down those mercenaries!”

Soon after, the crocodile saw the elves rushing at them with renewed fervor…

Their expressions were lively, high in morale.

Sadly, there was no grief…

There seemed to be no anger, either…

Seeing this scene, the crocodile was stunned inside,

*These elves, they really don’t care about their companions’ lives!*

Once the crocodile truly realized this unacceptable reality, his pupils constricted, feeling a chill run through his chest.

By then… his final reliance became a complete joke!

Before the crocodile could take any further action, a furious roar erupted from the skies—

“Damn humans! Mairrel will kill you!”

An overwhelming dragon aura surged out, and Black Dragon Mairrel let out a great roar, diving toward the crocodile.

The gigantic bat wings whipped up a gale, blowing players and mercenaries alike into disarray, while the overwhelming dragon power and intense killing intent made everyone stop, their hair standing on end!

The Black Dragon became enraged.

More furious than ever before!

Mairrel shot through the mercenary camp like a giant cannonball, immediately trampling several unlucky mercenaries and players.

“Whoa! Watch where you’re going! You’re stomping your own!”

A player urgently exclaimed.

Yet Mairrel didn’t care in the slightest.

It extended a black dragon claw, seizing the crocodile who hadn’t had time to flee. In the crocodile’s terrified eyes, it dangled him by the legs, swinging him to the ground…

“Smack!”

“Smack!”

“Smack!”

Suspended in the air by the Black Dragon, the crocodile crashed into the ground again and again, creating human-shaped craters.

Even as a Silver Mid-ranked Magic Swordsman, the crocodile couldn’t withstand the Black Dragon’s immense power, and he was quickly battered into a bloody mess, his consciousness fading…

However, Mairrel did not stop.

It slammed the crocodile into the ground repeatedly, venting its fury.

Gradually, the crocodile was bludgeoned into unconsciousness, his body mangled…

Mairrel didn’t stop until the human it was holding was battered into a pulp, unrecognizable amid twisted equipment, and then it halted, panting heavily…

Poor crocodile, a Silver Mid-ranked Magic Swordsman with a bit of fame along the Empire’s borders, exited the world in such a pitiable and frustrating state…

Around, both mercenaries and players were left completely stunned.

“Whoa… What happened to Mairrel?”

“So… so terrifying…”

“That boss sure had it rough… You can’t even discern its human form anymore…”

“Was it for Little Xian Miao?”

“It should know Little Xian Miao can resurrect, right? Why so angry?”

“Wait… is it about the barbecue? I remember Little Xian Miao saying Mairrel would be ignored if it didn’t rescue her later…”

“No way? Just for barbecue?”

“Ah! Damn it! The Silver Boss’s experience points are gone!”

“Whoa! The equipment’s wrecked too!”

Realizing that the crocodile was dead and the equipment destroyed, the players were grieved and indignant…

Elsewhere, witnessing the leader’s disastrous end, the hearts of the mercenaries completely broke…

“Dead… Dead…”

“Run… Run away…”

Their expressions were terrified and panic-stricken.

The entire mercenary group finally collapsed!

Even the trusted mercenaries, gathered by the Black Iron Upper-level crocodile, turned pale and were utterly at a loss, starting to flee in all directions…

“Don’t let them escape!”

Seeing the mercenaries’ complete rout and frantic flight, the players, with red eyes, chased after them…

However, unlike the players excitedly hunting down the mercenaries, Black Dragon Mairrel remained silent.

It glared coldly around, driving back a few players who tried to nab Little Xian Miao’s fallen legendary gear, under their awkward grins, collected Little Xian Miao’s equipment, then flapped its massive bat wings and left the battlefield alone…
