Chapter 380

This was the first time in twenty years that she had felt sunlight!

Even the midday sun felt precious, luxurious to Lomina!

Chenxi was equally excited.

She spread her arms wide, as if embracing the sunlight.

"Thank you, my god!"

Chenxi pressed her hands to her chest, fingers clasped tightly in prayer, conveying her joy and gratitude to the Lord of Flame!

Their return to the surface was entirely due to the great Lord of Flame.

Her god!

The Lord of Flame not only lifted their curse but also helped the Night Elves defeat the Shadow God's lingering schemes—he is the greatest benefactor of the entire Night Elf race!

So, not only Chenxi, but after her initial joy, Lomina too prayed to the Lord of Flame, conveying her gratitude.

The Night Elves who emerged one by one all expressed their most sincere thanks after feeling the sunlight.

It could be said that after these Night Elves returned to the surface and felt the sunlight, their faith in Lin Yan reached a new height.

This faith was beginning to sink deep into their bones!

More than fifty thousand Night Elves took over two full hours to pour out from the underground tunnels and all reach the surface.

Many Night Elves had already burst into tears from emotion!

These Night Elves spent another hour here before finally calming down from their excitement.

"Your Majesty, we've confirmed the situation—the Loki Mountains have collapsed!"

At this moment, several Night Elves who had been scouting reported.

They had emerged from a cave, and over fifty thousand Night Elves now filled the area completely.

Upon hearing the report, Chenxi and Lomina led the Night Elves toward the collapsed area.

After walking a short distance, they saw a massive fissure in the mountain ahead.

Chenxi and Lomina flew into the sky and looked down.

The Loki Mountains had truly collapsed!

And the collapse covered a vast area.

This collapse was not vertical, but horizontal.

The passage carved out by the collapse was over a kilometer wide!

If the Loki Mountains were a rectangular block of tofu.

It looked as if someone had taken a knife and cleanly cut out a chunk from the middle of that tofu!

This passage cut straight through the Loki Mountains—such a massive disturbance could not possibly go unnoticed by the human nations on the other side.

"There are humans."

Chenxi and Lomina looked toward the collapsed passage.

In the once-tangled path of rocks and trees, numerous trails had been trampled out; squad after squad of armored human warriors were rapidly advancing toward the other side of the mountains.

"Mother, look!"

Chenxi pointed to the other side of the mountains, where near their former forest, a fierce battle raged.

Tens of thousands of human warriors, shields raised, were advancing toward the forest under the cover of mages.

The forest already had an elven defense line established; these elves, relying primarily on bows and magic, had halted the human army's advance.

"The human nations moved so quickly—it seems the Loki Mountains collapsed some time ago."

Lomina murmured in surprise.

Chenxi recognized the defending elves and said:

"Mother, those are two tribes of Green Elves. Twenty years ago, the last Sun Elf tribe entered the Loki Forest, and we retreated underground. Only these two scattered elven tribes remained on the forest's edge—they're few in number and weak in strength. Mother, let us join the battle."

"Push harder, strengthen the assault—we'll take this forest! This is a great achievement!"

At the forest's front, a knight in armor, shield raised, commanded tens of thousands of human warriors advancing toward the forest.

"My lord, wasn't the Elven Empire said to be powerful? These elves don't seem very strong."

Beside him, an aide asked.

"Nonsense—this isn't even the Elven Empire yet! This is the outer edge of the Loki Forest. Otherwise, how do you think our Vanguard could hold against their attacks? These elves are weak—perfect. Once we take it, we'll capture plenty of prisoners and do whatever we want…"

"Swoosh!"

Before the armored knight finished speaking, an arrow shot through the sky.

His face changed—he raised his shield to block it—but the arrow's force was so great it pierced straight through his shield and pinned him to the ground.

The armored knight looked up and turned pale, for he saw two elves flying in the sky.

Then, Night Elves surged forth across the entire landscape; with just one volley of arrows, they wiped out more than half of the attacking human army.

The armored knight desperately tried to rise, but arrows pinned him to the ground, immobile.
