Blood Elf Monarch

Those monster\'s hissing voices pierced Tristan and the others\' ear canal, very painful.

They really didn\'t carry any weapons. Only their body was too terrible to the eye.

The monsters didn\'t attack immediately but looked at the others with their pair of black eyes that flashed with very little light.

"Find their weak spots! Kill them all!" King Castian gave the order.

All the magus level elves immediately used their high-level magic spells to attack the monster. They fought one on one, except for King Vizier, who was forced to deal with two monsters at once due to the unequal numbers.

12 monsters came closing in, very much in proportion to the number of them remaining on the expedition. A one-on-one battle quickly ensued between the two completely different species.

[Firebolt]

BOOM! KABOOM!

Before King Vizier\'s incredible flames hit their bodies, the Wyrm monster swiftly infiltrated the swampy puddle and then dashed away. When they entered the swamp water, their bodies mysteriously flattened so that when in the water, they were very difficult to detect.

[Earthbind]

Queen Leena managed to bind one Wyrm using her tree roots magic. However, in just a matter of seconds, the Wyrm violently jerked its body and managed to free itself from the tree roots wrapped around it with ease. Caught off guard, its long tail wagged at Queen Leena and hit her so hard that she flew into the air for a few seconds before falling back down onto the swamp.

"Shit! It seems there really is no other choice."

[Blood Synthesis]

Blood clots oozed out of Tristan\'s body and then rapidly flew through the air before finally turning into two very sharp long spears.

[200 blood essence has been consumed]

SPLAT!

Tristan\'s spear of blood managed to hit the belly of the wyrm monster that had hit Queen Leena\'s body earlier. And the monster groaned in a painful voice.

"KYEEEEK!"

As if screaming for help, a wyrm that was fighting Tristan suddenly came from under the water and hit Tristan\'s body right in the stomach, with such force that Tristan was pushed back 7 meters. Even so, his legs still stood firm, and he quickly drew his sword out to avenge the attack he received.

CLANK!

BANG!

From these exchanges alone, this was destined to be a very difficult fight for Tristan and the others.

King Vizier\'s fire magic did not seem very effective in the swamp, as if the water in the swamp was mystical water that could weaken his fire magic power. However, the king still had metal magic that could be used to create extraordinary weapons.

Physical combat was absolutely unavoidable. Hanz had pulled out three swords at once. But it seemed that he was overwhelmed by his opponent, as the Wyrm kept on jumping and disappearing in the water, just to ram him from below when he tried to look for it.

The wyrms were very agile, they were very good at dodging fatal attacks by hiding in swamps and confusing the magus level elves with their rapid movements.

"Stay alert!" King Castian exclaimed warningly as several wyrms at once had shot back into the water marsh and as they had no idea where they were now.

Suddenly, a Wyrm\'s head popped out, and the monster opened its jaws wide. The long pointed teeth suddenly grew irregularly in its mouth. That monster appeared right behind the slightly off guard King Castian\'s back.

However, a high elf elder who noticed it immediately jumped up, pushed the king\'s body to avoid the oncoming attack.

BANG!

SRUGG!

The elder actually sacrificed his body for the king, who was so shocked by the sudden attempt.

The elder\'s blood gushed out as his stomach was torn apart by the wyrm monster\'s bite, which immediately ripped out the elder\'s internal organs and ate them before jumping back into the water and disappearing.

"Faelar, my old friend." King Castian walked over to catch the elder\'s already limp body before it collapsed on top of the swamp. The elder\'s gaze dimmed, and a sphere of bright light shot out from within his body.

"No, my old friend. Thank you for protecting me."

Kolvar immediately took out an empty bottle to retrieve the spirit souls belonging to the high elf elder who had died in battle.

Tristan walked over to the elve\'s already helpless body before it was too late. At least, for now, he really can\'t get that spirit soul. But, still, he wouldn\'t miss the source of the elve\'s fresh blood.

[Blood Extraction]

[12000 high-quality blood has been extracted]

[23750 blood essence has been obtained]

[Current blood essence 49,430]

The battle against the wyrm was still continuing. These monsters simply didn\'t give the group a chance to take a respite.

With the blood essence extracted, Tristan calmed down a bit because his current amount of blood essence was quite good. Only by absorbing the blood of one high elf elder could he obtain a lot of blood essence. He couldn\'t wait for the next victim, and he really hoped it would be Kolvar, the spirit soul gatherer. That way, he would be able to get everything he wanted.

King Castian used light magic to attack the wyrm he had marked as the assassin of his old comrade.

[Lightning Judgment]

PTARRR!!

The light came out in the form of lightning that radiated from the king\'s palms. His attack managed to make the wyrm that was hiding behind the swamp instantly jump into the air because of the electric shock they received.

The light electric attack only had an effect on the wyrm monsters. It didn\'t hurt any of the elves who were in the same water.

Suddenly, the Queen of Vanyar, Queen Leena shouted in a very loud voice.

"Aarrghhhhh!"

Instantly all eyes turned and were on the queen. Her body was completely wrapped up by a wyrm who had caught her. She was completely trapped and couldn\'t move.

The Wyrm\'s head was ready to pounce on Queen Leena\'s head with its terrifyingly pointed teeth.

"No…no…no!" Tristan quickly reflexively shot towards the Wyrm, but to no avail, the distance was too far, and the Wyrm knew that it had to hurry too.

But–

Suddenly, Tristan could feel an even stronger aura coming from behind the crevices of the very dark trees. The aura felt like it was compressing the air nearby, so his lungs needed to adapt to the sudden pressure.

Right before the wyrm crushed Queen Leena\'s head, a black shadow rushed toward her.

BANG!
