Game of the World Tree

City Hall in Black Rock City.

The old dwarf Balin sat at his desk, bowing his head to deal with the daily affairs of Black Rock City.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the house, which made him look up and frown.

Accompanied by faint noises and screams, the dwarf hammer stumbled in:

"Master Balin! Master Balin! A group of dwarf guards suddenly came to the city hall, and they took away Elder Xilin and Elder Luotu! They also said that they are believers of darkness, go and see!"

Dwarf guards?

Balin's pupils shrank slightly, and the quill in his hand was subconsciously pinched in half.

"How many people came? Where did they go?"

He barely suppressed the fear in his heart and asked.

"It should be here soon, go and persuade! The city hall is loyal to the Church of Death, how can there be dark believers? You..."

Hammer was stunned halfway through.

Because he saw Elder Balin, who was usually stable, turned around in a hurry and opened the window, intending to escape...

"Elder?"

Hammer is still a little confused.

At this time, several well-armed dark dwarf guards poured in:

"On the order of the head of the temple, arrest the dark believers! Bahrain, you have nowhere to go, surrender quickly!"

what happened? How could it be exposed?

Hearing the voice of the guard behind him, Bahrain looked terrified.

The elders turned out to be believers of darkness?

Hammer was stunned.

Bahrain panicked and quickly accelerated his actions.

However, as soon as he dug out of the house, he was surrounded by a team of guards again, and was quickly tied up...

Similar things began to be staged in all directions of Black Rock City. The dark dwarf guards seemed to have "eyes", and as soon as they were caught, a large number of dark believers were arrested...

...

In the mine cave in the back mountain of Black Rock City.

Several believers pushed the God-Blessed Hearthstone in a wheelchair and fled in a panic.

Hearthstone's face was unbelievable:

"How did it get exposed? What the hell is going on here?"

Obviously he planned very well. If the elves could cause chaos, he ordered the dark believers to take the opportunity to sneak into the Church of Death to destroy the statues, and then attack from inside and outside, and summon the army of shadows to completely solve the believers of the gods of death in Black Rock City.

And if the elves didn't come as planned, he would honestly hide for a while, wait until the Church of Death and the elves mercenaries were paralyzed, and then try to intensify the contradiction between the two sides...

But... how come all the hands on his side are exposed in a blink of an eye?

Hearthstone looked flustered, and could only be surrounded by cronies and fled out of the city through the secret passage of the mine...

"It's over, if you lose your foundation in Black Rock City this time, there's no way to destroy the statue..."

Hearthstone's face was pale.

As long as the statue of the God of Death still has power, Black Rock City is almost unbreakable, and the dark believers cannot completely overthrow the religious rule of the God of Death here!

Even if he is prepared to have an army of shadow creatures as his trump card, I am afraid it will not be effective.

Because for shadow creatures, the power of true God's belief is a great threat, and it has great lethality!

He can already imagine the wrath of the True God that will usher in the failure of his mission.

Death is not terrible, because the true God has a way to make you more painful after death!

Although Black Rock City is not large in scale, it was once one of the sources of belief in Holder, the god of darkness and shadow. After the believers of the god of death completely expelled his belief here, this ancient true god was angry and humiliated. ...

This time, the recapture of Black Rock City was an oracle given by the True God himself for the believers!

If it fails, Hearthstone, as the leader, will have a tragic end.

But... what's going on?

Hearthstone couldn't figure it out, so he could only flee in a panic surrounded by his cronies...

But after he finally came to the outside of Heiyan City through the secret passage, he was stunned.

Here, someone is already waiting for him.

"Heartstone, you have nowhere to go."

The crisp voice sounded, it was the female temple chief of the Temple of Death!

She led a group of dark dwarf guards and blocked the exit of the secret passage.

However, the head of the dwarf temple at this time has completely recovered his original appearance, releasing the god of death Hela's possession.

Hela's consciousness has returned to the underworld.

"How...how did you find us?"

Hearthstone gritted his teeth.

The head of the Temple of Death looked at the red-eyed Hearthstone and sighed softly, with a hint of frenzy in his expression:

"Under the gaze of the true God, everything you have is invisible!"

Really... Really God?

Hearthstone was stunned for a while, and then he noticed that the head of the Temple of the God of Death still seemed to have a faint aura of death power...

In an instant, he suddenly realized:

"So it is! You really used the idol to invite the power of the true god!"

The head of the Temple of Death neither admitted nor denied it, but said:

"Surrender, Hearthstone, all of your dark believers in the city have been captured by us."

"surrender?"

After listening to the words of the head of the Temple of Death, Hearthstone let out a sneer.

After confirming that the Temple of Death actually used the power of the idol, he calmed down.

I saw Hearthstone narrowed his eyes and said:

"I don't know if you are smart or stupid. You actually used the power of the temple to arrest us. It's just... With such a large-scale inventory of different beliefs, how much power is left in the temple?"

"No matter how much is left, you have already failed."

The Dwarf Temple Master said.

"Ah……"

Hearthstone smiled, and there was a hint of madness in his expression:

"It's not certain who will win!"

After that, a deep energy began to gather in him!

"No, hurry up and hide!"

The dwarf temple chief's expression changed.

And hearing her order, all the dwarf guards retreated.

Under the solemn gazes of all the dark dwarves, this dark favored one actually ignited the power of his belief, and the whole person turned into a black flame, and the deep light rose into the sky!

"Yes... a signal!"

The head of the dwarf temple looked solemn, but he did not panic, as if he had expected it.

"It's an emergency signal!"

In an underground forest outside Black Rock City, more than a dozen dark dwarves wearing gray and black robes looked at the direction of Black Rock City solemnly.

"It's Lord Hearthstone. I'm afraid something happened in the city. He ordered us to summon the Shadow Legion immediately."

A low, hoarse voice said.

After speaking, the dark dwarves looked at each other, then nodded, took a step forward, and cleared the fallen leaves from the ground...

And as the fallen leaves were removed, a huge magic circle that had already been portrayed gradually appeared on the ground!

I saw that they came to the front of the circle, knelt down around the circle, began to pray in a low voice, and sang a cadence incantation.

With their incantation, the magic circle gradually exuded a deep brilliance, and a chaotic and cold aura began to condense.

At the same time, the center of the array suddenly brightened, the earth began to shake, and a dark gray energy shot up into the sky!

...

In Black Rock City, the players who were still watching the dark dwarves fighting with surprise and curiosity suddenly felt the earth shake.

"Look, what is that?"

Someone pointed to the sky.

The players looked up and found that there was a dark gray energy column rising into the sky in all directions, and a cold and chaotic atmosphere came from afar...

Immediately afterwards, the tops of the four energy pillars collapsed one after another, as if they had become four spewing volcanoes. One after another, smaller dark gray arcs fell to the ground like falling rain, and some even fell directly into Heiyan City!

As soon as they landed, these dark gray energies began to change like wriggling jelly, and finally turned into black-gray translucent humanoid monsters wrapped in rich black smoke!

On the city wall of Black Rock City, the dwarf guards changed color when they looked at the densely packed strange monsters that suddenly appeared under the city.

"Shadow creatures! It's the army of shadow creatures!"

"Not good! Hurry up and sound the warning horn, close the city gate, and notify the temple to activate the defensive magic!"

With the loud horn, the guards on the entire city wall suddenly moved...

"Master Captain, it's not good! The energy stored in the temple has been used up!"

"what?!"

"But Lord Temple Master said that the elves will help us defend the city together!"

"Elves? Just them? What can they do?"

The city defense captain of the dark dwarf was suddenly speechless and looked angry.

...

In Black Rock City.

This place has long since fallen into chaos with the landing of a small number of shadow monsters...

These shadow monsters that suddenly descended were extremely powerful, and normal attacks could not inflict strong damage on them, but the other party began to slaughter frantically in the city, devouring everything.

They roared, opened their teeth and danced their claws, climbed on houses, galloped across the ground, and shredded all creatures they saw with their sharp claws surrounding the black mist!

The dwarf guards had to gather in twos and threes to fight against the shadow monsters.

Wails, screams, roars, the collision of weapons, the chanting of incantations resounded everywhere...

Seeing this chaotic scene, the players were stunned.

"Fuck! Are the special effects so scary?"

Although they had experienced battles with orcs, this intimidating monster still shocked them.

"Don't stare at it! Go get the equipment! The war is on! The war is on!"

Demacia cursed inwardly and hurriedly ran towards the city gate.

The other players also reacted, suppressing the fear of this ghostly shadow creature in their hearts, and they followed...

On the city wall, the captain of the gloom dwarves led his soldiers to chop down a shadow creature that was trying to climb up the city wall. Looking at the dense army of shadows in the distance, his expression was very ugly.

"The number is probably at least several thousand! It may even exceed ten thousand!"

There was a quiver in his voice.

In the absence of temple defense magic, how can Black Rock City resist? !

At this time, the surrounding guards suddenly exclaimed:

"Captain be careful!"

The captain of the dwarf guard froze in his heart, and a sense of crisis suddenly arose.

He waved his sword and turned around, and saw a shadow monster descending on the city rushing towards him...

Unprepared, he was suddenly thrown down, and even his weapon was knocked into the air, while the shadow monster waved its sharp claws surrounded by black mist and stabbed him...

Just when the captain of the dwarf guard was horrified and thought he was about to die, a huge fireball suddenly flew over and hit the shadow monster.

The fireball exploded, the shadow monster let out a shrill scream, and half of the black smoke surrounding the body dissipated immediately, revealing a dark gray and translucent body.

The captain of the dwarf guard also took the opportunity to break free from the opponent's claws, picked up his weapon and escaped.

While breathing heavily, he looked in the direction the fireball had just flown in, and saw a pink-haired elf girl in a robe and holding a magic wand standing three or four meters away.

The elf girl looked excited, and while looking at her staff, she muttered happily:

"Hit! I hit!"

Captain of the Guard:  …

And behind the other side, there are more fully armed elves rushing up the city wall...

Their expressions are very strange, a little nervous, and a little excited, warriors, mages, hunters, all kinds of occupations... but they are full of high morale.

I saw them brandishing their weapons, screaming and climbing the city wall, and began to assist the dark dwarves in their defense!

At the same time, the captain of the dwarf guard also heard the common language one after another:

"Support the dwarves!"

"Hurry up! Disperse the defense! Don't put a monster in there!"

"Kill them!"

"Ura—!"

The captain of the guard was stunned when he saw the elves who were even more ambitious than the dwarves.
