The sudden phoenix cry...
Made the ten 'eagles' soaring in the sky widen their eyes, their bodies twitching violently!
Their posture was as if they were about to encounter their greatest fear!
"Quick, transform back!"
At Lorna's sharp command, the ten 'eagles' transformed back into their elf forms with a bang, falling back into the team.
At this moment, their faces were pale, and their hearts were filled with panic.
Looking ahead...
They saw the dust and smoke disperse, revealing the true forms of the Bi Fang and the Frost Snow Phoenix, spreading their massive wings and shielding the rain of eagle feathers, protecting the magical beasts and spirit beasts below.
"What are you waiting for? Keep charging!"
Seeing their magical beasts and spirit beasts trembling under the protection of Yun Man and the Frost Snow Phoenix, little Meng Shuang couldn't help but shout.
Sigh!
There's nothing to be done...
The might of divine beasts is something ordinary spirit beasts and magical beasts simply cannot withstand.
Fortunately, under Meng Shuang's shout, the magical beasts and spirit beasts gritted their teeth once more and continued roaring as they charged toward the Elf Forest team.
Yun Man and the Frost Snow Phoenix returned to their human forms and continued sprinting with the team!
"Mages, cast 'Hell Swamp'!"
Seeing this reckless, fearless charge, Lorna once again opted for a steady defensive strategy.
If it had been another team, with their magical beasts and spirit beasts charging so recklessly, she would have already ordered her team to switch to offensive mode and wipe them out in one go.
After all, on this vast plain, the distance between the two teams was still quite long.
But now, because of her extreme caution toward that non-specialist, Lorna didn't dare to make any bold moves.
Damn it!
That detestable non-specialist!
It's because of this scoundrel that she was being so cautious!
The key issue was that this guy was just standing there, staring blankly at the sky.
This...
Hmm!?
Wait!!
Why was the Dragon Kingdom team down to just him!?
Where were his teammates?
Lorna was suddenly shocked!
"Full defense!"
She almost instinctively shouted this command!
Before her voice had even faded...
All the elf girls collectively bit their fingers and slashed through the air in front of them!
Buzz!!
A vast and mysterious wave of magical energy spread out!
Then, everyone was shocked to see a lush green ancient tree with vibrant life force burst forth from the center of the elf team!
In just an instant...
The green ancient tree grew to a height of a hundred meters, becoming a towering giant.
The lush green tree emitted beams of light, not only enveloping the elf girls but also the charging divine beasts and magical beasts like Yun Man, Meng Shuang, and others.
"It's here! The Holy Tree of All Spirits! A god-level bloodline technique unique to the Elf Forest!"
"Holy crap! They're already using their trump card!?"
"This is bad, it feels like the Dragon Kingdom team is going to lose!"
"It's said that the Holy Tree of All Spirits embodies endless mercy and divine sanctity. Anyone enveloped by its light will lose the will to fight and become completely passive."
"This..."
Outside...
The audience, watching the green ancient tree burst from the ground, immediately recognized this god-level bloodline technique of the elf race.
Moreover...
In the last team competition, the Elf Forest team used this move at the last critical moment.
It caused their already exhausted and severely injured opponents to fall into a state of complete passivity, allowing them to secure victory.
But what was surprising...
Was that this was only the match to determine the top 16 from the top 32.
Yet, the Elf Forest team had already been forced to reveal their trump card.
The key was that the Dragon Kingdom team hadn't used any particular tricks, had they?
They simply launched a very straightforward collective charge with all their contracted beasts.
And that was enough to scare the Elf team into revealing their trump card?
That's a bit of an exaggeration...
But this god-level bloodline technique was indeed very effective.
The contracted beasts that had been fearlessly charging now stood frozen in place, staring blankly at the sky.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
Even Meng Shuang, who had been charging most fiercely and shouting the loudest, was now completely passive under the green light.
She even became confused...
She didn't know what she was doing there.
Seeing the charging contracted beasts enter a 'sage mode,' the elf girls finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If this had been an ordinary team...
They might have felt they could defend with ease.
But when the charge was led by five divine beasts, with a cunning non-specialist backing them...
The elf girls felt immense pressure.
They feared that these contracted beasts might secretly be carrying explosive bombs or swarms of parasitic insects.
"Alright, it's time to sound the counterattack!"
Lorna took a deep breath, and under the light of the Holy Tree of All Spirits, her confidence soared.
The Holy Tree of All Spirits...
Requires the essence blood of at least ten elf girls to summon.
It's a god-level technique unique to the elf race.
The powerhouses of the Elf Forest have used this technique on the frontlines many times to achieve significant results.
"First, deal with these contracted beasts! After killing them, use a technique to temporarily preserve their bodies; don't let them be revived!"
Lorna quickly and decisively issued her order.
The Holy Tree of All Spirits can affect others, but it has no effect on elves.
The elves quickly nodded, and several elf mages raised their staffs, aiming at the contracted beasts in 'sage mode.'
Buzz!!
Multi-colored magical beams gathered above the elf girls.
But just as they were about to finish their incantations...
Boom!!
A loud explosion!
Splat!!
A bullet silently shot out from the void, mercilessly shattering the head of an elf mage!
Boom!!
Before the elf girls could react, the massive bullet that had shattered the elf's head, wrapped in spiraling energy, hit the trunk of the Holy Tree of All Spirits, creating a spectacular explosion!
"This..."
Lorna, who had just relaxed, widened her eyes and turned to look in another direction!
She saw that in that direction, there was a second 'Ling Zhan,' dragging an anti-tank sniper cannon, staring at her with an indifferent expression.
"Defend! Heal!"
Ignoring her shock, the elf girls quickly tried to heal their fallen comrade.
But to their despair...
"Captain! We can't heal her! Black flames are burning in Luo Xi's neck, blocking our healing, dispelling, and resurrection spells! We have to wait until these black flames dissipate before we can revive Luo Xi!"
"What!?"
Lorna's face darkened as she approached.
Before she could inspect her teammate's injuries, another teammate's voice rang out urgently.
"Captain! The trunk of the Holy Tree of All Spirits is also burning with black flames! It can't be healed or restored!"
Lorna: "..."
