Chapter 149
This final hurdle was like a student about to take the college entrance exam after countless mock tests, terrified of performing poorly.
From the moment they stepped into the examination hall, all accumulation of knowledge would pause; they needed to rack their brains and use all their strength to overcome the pass in front of them.
【Village Announcement: The thirtieth wave of the Newcomer Trial monster tide is about to strike! Countdown: 10...】
When the countdown reached 0, an Elf Legion suddenly appeared outside the territory.
The Elf race was entirely composed of handsome men and beautiful women. This group of elves belonged to the Forest Elves, who liked to live in forests, and the battlefield they were best at fighting in was also the forest.
"It's finally here."
Yun Shen held a small tablet in his hand, a little gadget Jiang Lan had manufactured in the Technology Research Institute during this time. It could connect to the internet, not only connecting to the Profound Heaven Research Institute but also allowing him to contact Jiang Lan and the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens at any time, provided they were within the connectable distance.
With this, Yun Shen could overlook the panoramic view of the territory's battle situation through the high-altitude perspective of the Technology Research Institute.
This time, the Elf Legion that appeared didn't appear in a posture of surrounding the territory, but was concentrated five hundred meters away from the gate of the thorn fence.
The direction of the monster tide's attack was random; any direction was possible, and it could even be a posture of surrounding and attacking all directions of the territory simultaneously.
This was an Elf Legion with a scale of over a thousand people, composed of various units: archers, warriors, and mages were all present, and there was even a Legendary Grade War Ancient Tree!
Confirming that the enemy appeared from only one direction, everyone who had been guarding the four sides of the territory left their respective stations and gathered towards the frontal battlefield with the Elf Legion.
It was just that the Elf Legion's movements were obviously faster. They were well-trained and well-commanded, and seeing this, they immediately reacted.
Standing in the very front row were Elf archers with uniform equipment and movements. Their actions of drawing arrows and bows were so fast it was hard to distinguish. A dense rain of arrows shot over, all sticking into the thorn fence, looking just like a hedgehog. Only a very small number hit the Profound Heaven Iron Maidens, but fortunately, they didn't break through the defense of the nano-colonization armor.
The thorn fence didn't show weakness either. Countless vines covered in thorns constantly extended out, as if wanting to make this group of elves experience the pain it had endured!
There were already many people defending the position where the rain of arrows shot from, including Jiang Lan.
They didn't think about building defenses to block this wave of arrow rain, but instead rushed towards the Elf Legion one after another.
After this wave of shooting by the Elf Legion, the troops responsible for defending other directions of the territory also rushed over one after another and joined the battle.
Various melee units in the Elf Legion stood out one after another, standing in front of the archers.
On their bodies, many buff spells had already been cast by Elf mages.
The Elf race's mages and archers didn't stop either. Various spells and arrows constantly shot out from within, targeting Jiang Lan and the other women who had already killed their way over.
That War Ancient Tree wasn't idle either. This big guy was a kind of defensive building among the Elf race, able to walk by relying on its root system, but its speed was very slow.
It had many attack methods, such as condensing earth element boulders to smash at enemies, shooting spikes, poison gas, vine attacks, various spells...
Since it was crowned with the name "War", it already explained how huge its role in war was!
It was just that this thing was also very rare among the Elf race. He didn't expect to see one in the monster tide today.
Suddenly, Yun Shen noticed that among the Elf Legion, there was an elf who looked very much like an Elf King from his attire.
Yun Shen immediately operated, letting the Profound Heaven Research Institute investigate the information of this elf.
【Forest Elf King】 (Leader)
【Name】: Subait Bueno...
【Quality】: Golden Legendary
【Level】: 10
Many races had names that were a long string, especially those whose ancestors had been glorious. The more great people in their ancestors, the longer their names might be.
If there wasn't a single ancestor, then perhaps even a surname wouldn't exist, like that Great Demon encountered last time.
"Good guy, it really is an Elf King."
Yun Shen was somewhat fortunate. It was impossible for a Mythical Grade existence to appear in the new district. The quality of this Elf King was mostly reduced because of this.
The Elf race, like the Human race, had many branches, and the level of the Elf King of each ethnic branch was also uneven.
It was just that most Elf Kings would basically have Mythical Grade talent during their lifetime, and if they were recruited after death, they would also be Mythical quality troops.
"Fortunately, if the scale is just over a thousand, it's not a big problem."
Yun Shen looked at the gap between the enemy and himself, and still breathed a slight sigh of relief.
With the combat power of the Iron Maidens, it was inevitable that they would beat this group of elves.
Ordinary wild monsters didn't belong to any territory. Even if they belonged to some wild building, they didn't have territory trait bonuses.
However, wild monsters with titles were like heroes, possessing the 【Command】 attribute, which could act on the wild monsters under their command.
Whether it was an Elite title or a Leader title, they all had Command.
Command needed to be chosen by the troops and wild monsters themselves, just like various badges in games, which needed to be hung up by themselves.
Different from the badge functions in many games, Command couldn't be stacked and used. Each unit could at most enjoy the bonus of one Command, and switching Command also existed with a one-day cooldown period.
In addition, the specific functions of Command were also different. Even if it was the same-named Command of the same quality, it was possible that one purely increased physique attributes, and one purely increased spirit attributes.
This was just an analogy. Generally, Command had multiple effect bonuses and wouldn't be extreme to the point of having only one attribute bonus. The specific effects were many, such as skill damage, cultivation speed, thinking logic, etc.
