Chapter 762: Orc Empire Compromises

At the moment Dimolin died, a pair of eyes flashing with scarlet light suddenly appeared within a massive tomb hidden deep underground in the Orc Empire.

"Who on earth is so bold as to kill my God's Envoy?" An angry roar erupted from the boundless darkness, causing the entire tomb to tremble.

But the roar was quickly interrupted by a series of coughs. Aided by the light radiating from those eyes, one could see the owner of the eyes clutching his chest and coughing incessantly. Beneath his broad palm was a hideous wound that ran across his entire chest. Through that wound, one could even see the man's heart beating continuously.

"Damn it, if my injuries hadn't yet healed, who would dare touch my God's Envoy!" the figure said, gritting his teeth. "When I heal and emerge from seclusion, I will certainly make the person who killed my God's Envoy know what the wrath of a god is!"

Just as Lingyun finished his battle, the fighting at the Elf Fortress was also drawing to a close.

The Orc Empire's strongest trump card was the Blood Demon Beast, but this time, the Elf Holy Spears, which had long been deployed atop the Elf Fortress, once again made these Blood Demon Beasts—which had displayed such divine might on the battlefields of the Three Great Empires—realize the ferocity of the Elf race. Under the control of the Elves, every Elf Holy Spear struck a Blood Demon Beast with precision. And the Blood Demon Beasts struck by the Elf Holy Spears could only vanish into a patch of green light after emitting shrill roars.

When the soldiers of the Orc Empire faced the warriors of the Elf Empire, they discovered just how terrifying their opponents were. Their long lifespans granted the Elf warriors rich combat experience and versatile fighting techniques. At long range, they would first unleash a wave of Magic bombardment; at medium range, they would follow up with a rain of arrows; if one charged to their side, they could pick up a long sword to fight you; and when they had a spare moment, they would even cast Natural Healing on themselves or others.

At the same time, multiple Elf warriors combined to form a small military formation, with each Elf warrior having different responsibilities. These formations integrated the strength of many Elf warriors, exerting powerful force. A battle formation composed of Ninth Rank Elf warriors could cause even a Saint Domain Orc Warrior to fall if they were not careful.

Even though the Orc Empire's troop strength was ten times that of the Elf Fortress, under the powerful counterattacks of the Elf warriors, the Orc Empire's soldiers not only failed to gain any advantage but also suffered heavy casualties.

"Five Suns Scorching the Plains!"

Luo Yexi held the Nine Suns Heavenly Sword high, and surging Sun Fire poured out from the blade, transforming into five scorching Light Balls around her body. As Luo Yexi waved her hand, the five golden-red Light Balls descended upon the Blood Demon Beast simultaneously.

Enveloped by the five Light Balls, the Blood Demon Beast let out a shrill shriek, its body being continuously evaporated by the intense heat. Suddenly, the five Light Balls shattered in unison, transforming into infinite Sword Qi that swept across the area where the Blood Demon Beast was. Even though the Blood Demon Beast possessed powerful regenerative abilities, under the Nine Suns Sword Qi, it could only turn completely into ashes.

"Extreme Cold Ice Domain!"

Esdeath waved one hand, and endless cold air erupted from her palm, sealing the entire Blood Demon Beast within a sheet of ice. Subsequently, a white figure was seen piercing through the ice and snow; countless sword marks appeared on the ice, and the entire block of ice disintegrated into countless fragments in an instant, dissipating completely.

Elsewhere, blood-colored mist churned as a Blood Demon Beast turned into a cloud of blood mist, entangling with the blood-colored mist around Busujima Saeko, with the momentum to assimilate her. Busujima Saeko's expression remained unchanged; her fingers lightly caressed the Shura Slash in her hand, and a blood-colored light rose from her pupils, piercing through the entire cloud of blood mist.

"Great Shura Slash!"

A blood-colored blade glow swept across the entire blood mist, and the Blood Demon Beast, which had transformed into mist, let out a painful roar. It had not expected that Busujima Saeko's Great Shura Slash could actually cause such massive damage even to a spirit body. Caught off guard, it was struck completely by the Great Shura Slash and vanished into the blood-colored mist as specks of light.

With the spirit body gone, the blood mist that the Blood Demon Beast had turned into became ownerless. The blood-colored mist around Busujima Saeko surged in momentum, immediately devouring these blood mists completely before retracting back into Busujima Saeko's body.

"Blood Demon Beast, nothing more than this!"

The Scythe in Liuli's hand turned into specks of light and vanished. Behind her, a Blood Demon Beast was frantically splitting its own body. One could see black marks continuously spreading across the Blood Demon Beast's body; the Destruction Power was constantly eroding it. No matter how the Blood Demon Beast struggled, the Destruction Power on its body was like a maggot on a tarsal bone, impossible to expel. In the end, the entire Blood Demon Beast was completely eroded by the Destruction Power and turned into nothingness.

With Dimolin and Azike killed in action, the Blood Demon Beasts wiped out, and the majority of the invading Army dead or wounded, the Orc Empire's forces suffered an unprecedented blow. Under these circumstances, the Orc Empire's generals had to choose to retreat temporarily while reporting the intelligence here to Beast God City.

Ten days after Dimolin's death, an envoy from the Orc Empire arrived at the Elf Fortress once again.

"The Orc Empire's envoy has come again!" Andiya said to Lingyun beside her with a smile.

"It seems the deaths of Dimolin and Azier did touch the monarch of the Orc Empire. I wonder if the Orc monarch's choice this time is to fight or to make peace!"

"No matter what decision the Orc Empire makes, our Elf race has nothing to fear!" Andiya was full of confidence.

"Respected High Priest, we meet again." The person who appeared before Andiya was an acquaintance, the very same fox-man priest who had come to the Elf Fortress last time. "This is a letter our King has written to you."

The fox-man priest took an exquisite letter from his Space Ring and handed it to Andiya.

Andiya opened the letter and glanced at it, her brows lifting slightly: "This is the Orc monarch's decision?"

"Yes, Your Majesty said that our Orc Empire is willing to hand over those ferocious beasts that killed the half-elves, and at the same time compensate for all the losses of the Elf race," the fox-man priest said with his head lowered.

"Since that is the case, then once the Orc Empire has fulfilled its promise, we will withdraw from here." Andiya stamped the letter with her Seal as the Elf Grand Priest and handed the letter back to the fox-man priest. "You may return to report to your monarch."

"Thank you for your magnanimity." The fox-man priest took the letter and left the hall swiftly.

"I didn't expect the Orc Empire to compromise so quickly." There was still a trace of resentment in Jienuo's eyes.

"They couldn't help but compromise. Whether it was Dimolin or Azike, both were top-tier combatants within the Orc Empire. Now that these two top combatants have fallen here, it is a huge blow to the Orc Empire. As the Orc Empire's trump card, the Blood Demon Beasts also suffered a devastating blow here; they lost five God Tier Blood Demon Beasts in total.

Furthermore, the harvest season is approaching. If they don't find a way to harvest the grain on these plains, even a day's delay would cause inestimable losses. Under these circumstances, even if the Orc monarch didn't want to compromise, others would force him to," Kuchuer said, squinting his eyes.

"That's right, the current Orc Empire really only has this path to take." Andiya's fingers tapped the table lightly. "I think the Orc Empire's actions should be swift. Let the soldiers prepare; we can go home!"

"Yes, High Priest!"
