490: New killer, despicable human

“Human… humans!”

Suneika covered her mouth.

Human eyes and Elf eyes were not very different, but they had subtle characteristics.

As an astute Elf, Suneika could easily distinguish these characteristics.

With just one look, she concluded.

The heavily armored warrior before her was a human!

It was just… Suneika had never seen a human over three meters tall before.

And… he had just instantly killed a Behemoth!?

A Behemoth’s attributes were comparable to an Emperor Tier Elf!

Its Physique was several, even ten, times that of an Elf powerhouse.

Such a powerful existence was instantly killed by a one-star potential human?

How many levels must he be?

Level 180 couldn't do that, could it?

Could it be a Transcendent Tier above Level 180?

Just as Suneika was astonished, the human heavy-armored warrior put away his long saber, nodded slightly, and said, “Your subject is an Imperial Guard, sent by order of the Divine Emperor to rescue you and the Imperial Uncle.”

“Ah?”

Suneika was full of questions.

Imperial Guard?

Divine Emperor?

Imperial Uncle?

Why couldn’t she understand these terms?

However, at this moment, Suneika no longer had time to ponder the meaning of these words.

Because an even more astonishing sight had captured her attention.

Behind that “Imperial Guard,” golden rays of light descended.

The golden light slammed into the Orc Formation, immediately unleashing violent shockwaves that threw the Orcs into the sky like grains of sand.

In an instant, the Orc Formation fell into disarray, and their charge towards Platinum City was broken.

“What a powerful skill!”

Suneika looked up at the sky and saw that the long sword was still suspended there.

She realized that these pillars of light descending from the sky must be related to that long sword.

She just didn’t know what skill it was.

It looked like a light element attack, somewhat similar to a Light Mage’s skill.

But soon, Suneika knew she had judged incorrectly.

Those pillars of light descending from the sky were not light element attacks at all.

Clang! Clang!

The heavy sound of armor rubbing echoed.

One by one, well-equipped, tall warriors appeared in the golden light.

Some held long halberds, others held sabers and shields.

The impact of their descent alone sent the surrounding Orcs flying.

This was just a incidental effect of their arrival.

After these Golden Armor Warriors entered the battlefield, they immediately charged towards the Orc Formation.

Their charge was like an unstoppable War chariot; wherever they passed, the Orcs were thrown into disarray, men and mounts alike.

Those fierce and barbaric green-skinned monsters couldn't last three rounds against these Golden Armor Warriors.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

The Behemoth let out earth-shattering wails, falling one after another.

Suneika hadn’t even realized what was happening.

The ten-thousand-strong Orc Formation began to disintegrate.

The tide-like charge turned into a retreating rout.

The Elves remaining on the battlefield looked at each other, both shocked and bewildered.

They were shocked by the strength of the Golden Armor Warriors.

Compared to the Orc army, their numbers were not large, only about a thousand.

But it was these thousand people who utterly shattered a ten-thousand-strong Formation.

It felt like adults had infiltrated a kindergarten.

It was truly one slice per person, slaughtering all around.

Soon, wailing howls echoed from the chaotic Orc Formation.

This was the signal to retreat.

In Suneika’s eyes, this signal was somewhat redundant.

After those Golden Armor Warriors entered the battlefield, most of the Orcs were already fleeing.

It was the first time Suneika had seen panic on the faces of Orcs.

Weren’t they a race that enjoyed War and enjoyed slaughter?

Why were they retreating like stray dogs in front of these Golden Armor Warriors?

Suneika was deeply shaken, and even felt a hint of fear.

Because.

These Golden Armor Warriors were all cunning and despicable humans!

...Boom!

The heavy gate was pushed open.

Suneika, carrying her unconscious brother, rushed into the Elf Hall.

Surrounded by a retinue of guards, she frantically placed him in the spring water in the center of the hall.

Soaking in the Nature Sacred Spring was the most widely used healing method in the Elf World.

The life force in the Nature Sacred Spring could heal all injuries for Elves; if a corpse was intact, it could even bring the dead back to life.

Not long after the Elven Prince’s body was immersed in the Sacred Spring, his wounds began to heal, and his broken and dislocated bones reconnected and grew.

Seeing her brother’s grayish-blue face regain its luster, Suneika let out a long sigh of relief.

Recalling the scene just now, it was truly too perilous.

If that human warrior hadn’t appeared in time,

She and her brother wouldn’t even have left behind an intact corpse.

However, Suneika still felt uneasy at this moment.

She had already confirmed that those warriors in golden armor, descending from the sky, were all humans.

Suneika didn’t know why these demons would help the Elves.

But she knew that if these demons had any ill intentions, not a single Elf in Platinum City would survive.

Although they only numbered 1,000, their combat power was far superior to that of the 10,000 Orcs.

When the Orcs attacked earlier, Platinum City’s defenders could still put up some resistance.

But if they faced these 1,000 human warriors, they wouldn't last a minute!

Fortunately, those humans were currently arrayed outside Platinum City, seemingly awaiting someone’s command.

“Suneika, who are those Golden Armor Warriors?”

Inside the hall, an Elf Elder walked over and asked Suneika.

He had also seen those armored warriors on the city wall, but due to the distance, he didn’t know their origins.

He used his Elf’s Eye to observe but couldn’t see their information.

This was very unusual.

Logically, an Elf Professional should be able to analyze everything, even Transcendent Tier above Emperor Rank, and see their attributes.

Unless the opponent was a god.

But while these Golden Armor Warriors were powerful, they were far from the level of gods.

Facing the Elder’s question, Suneika subtly winked.

There were still many guards and attendants in the Elf Hall.

The fact that those Golden Armor Warriors were humans could not be known by too many people.

After all, in the Elves’ values, humans were despicable and evil.

These demons were extremely cunning.

They would set up various traps in Secret Realms, luring Professionals in various ways.

What was even more troublesome was that they understood various strategies.

For example, killing healers first in a group wipe, besieging a point to draw out reinforcements, extracting intelligence, luring enemies deep, and so on.

What was even more despicable was that they would exploit the Elves’ sensitive empathy for various backstabs.

For example, installing explosives or explosive Formations on injured small animals and detonating them when Elves came to rescue the animals.

Humans could devise countless such despicable schemes, never repeating, making it impossible for Professionals to strategize against them.

Many new Professionals died in human Secret Realms.

Therefore, although humans were one-star demons, in the Elf World, they had the title of “Newbie Killer.”

Even the Elves’ common phrase to scare children was, “If you don’t behave, humans will come and take you away!”

It could be said that most Elves had a shadow over them regarding humans.

A thousand of these demons suddenly appeared, and they were all very strong.

If other Elves found out, morale would instantly collapse… [Retired Emperors: It’s been a long time since we paid our respects, so we specially came to pay our respects to all our Imperial Fathers~]
