Chapter 1349 - Missing (1/2)
Unfortunately, the second theory was never confirmed yet, either. The studies of the underground world showed that although it was impossible to tell when the Blood Elves appeared there, their traces could be found throughout the history in the relics, but there was no sign of elves in the earliest relics. Their earliest traces were left in the same period as the middle phase of the Nesser Dynasty in Noscent.
Lin Yun didn’t know how the Blood Elves emerged, either, but like all the other elves, they were all favored by fate as natural-born spellcasters. Some of them were just more talented than others.
If the Blood Elves’ reproduction weren’t as difficult as that of all the other elves, and each new child might take years if not decades to conceive, the Blood Elves would dominate the underground world.
The largest population in the underground world was not beastmen, but half-beastmen. There weren’t a lot of beastmen in the underground world, but half-beastmen were almost everywhere.
Their strong bodies made the half-beastmen natural-born warriors. Different races of half-beastmen had different talents. Each had their own features and strengths. Although their ratio of experts was far lower than that of Blood Elves, there were simply too many half-beastmen…
In the Blood Elves’ tribe, there could be an Archmage among several hundred members on average, and one in several thousand people could advance into the Heaven Rank.
As for the half-beastmen, more than 95% of them were bottom-level beings in the army. Those half-beastmen usually couldn’t become Great Swordsmen. There couldn’t be one Sword Saint in 10,000 people. It would be lucky if there was one Heaven Rank expert in a tribe of hundreds of thousands of members.
Despite the huge ratio gap, it was impossible for the Blood Elves to conquer the half-beastmen, because the population of half-beastmen was hundreds of times that of the Blood Elves. Population was the foundation of the half-beastmen’s position.
Lin Yun wasn’t happy to see the Blood Elves, because they were famous for their arrogance and unreasonableness. They considered everybody else in the underground to be inferior species.
The Blood Elves had fought other races too many times for their prejudice. They fought half of their wars for similar reasons.
The arrogant Blood Elves even dared to decry dragons as giant lizards or reptiles, so there was certainly nothing they didn’t dare to do. The most famous war in history would happen 10,000 years later, when the Blood Elves insulted the strong descendant of a Destruction Black Dragon. The Destruction Black Dragon’s descendant was not a nice guy, either, and immediately destroyed a couple of the Blood Elves’ cities, thus starting a war that lasted hundreds of years…
Lin Yun recalled information about the Blood Elves. Before he said anything, a bloody arrow of light had been shot towards the floating boat from thousands of meters away.
The expression of Darri, who was flying in the lead, changed, and he stood in the way of the arrow without thinking. Unleashing his aura, he transformed his hands into lizard claws that were two meters long, and hit the arrow brutally.
With a boom, the arrow exploded, and Darri was flung dozens of meters back. His claws were enshrouded in bloody brilliance. From the cracks on his claws, blood was gushing out like a spring. His aura glittered for a few seconds, and he finally stopped bleeding.
“Darri, you stupid reptile, how dare you appear in front of me? Do you think you can approach our territory now that you’ve found a bastard dragon as your supporter?”
A handsome male Blood Elf, who looked like a beautiful woman, was standing on the back of one of the weird birds, with a two-meter-long bow in his hand. He looked down at Darri with a cold smile.
Darri’s expression changed completely after he heard that…
What a stupid and arrogant man. Does he not detect this formidable sir here? It’s fine if he insults me, but how dare he insult those terrifying strangers. Does he want to get killed?
Stupid Blood Elf, even if you cannot detect the bloodline pressure, do you not feel their powerful auras? I wonder why he is still alive when he’s so stupid. He’s screwed…
That man is as good as dead. I don’t know the strength or the temper of the terrifying sir on the boat, but Lord Xiuban certainly does not have a good temper. Madam Reina doesn’t seem easy to deal with, either…
That guy is doomed. But I’m involved in this because of him too. What if that sir thinks that I’m the cause of the trouble?
Darri gritted his teeth, and had no time to consider whether he could beat the man. He roared, and was about to charge out.
“What an arrogant idiot. Since when was this place the Blood Elves’ territory? If you want to cause trouble, then I’m right here!”
But before he did anything, someone had rushed out of the floating boat. Xiuban, who had been infuriated on the way because of Enderfa’s mockery, couldn’t wait any longer after Lin Yun gave him permission.
While he was still flying, the brilliance of magic power had started glittering in Xiuban. Bloodlust, Power of Earth, and Power of Wind all enhanced his body. The tattoo of a bloody abyssal evil dragon appeared on Xiuban’s skin, and gazed at the Blood Elves with its wicked eyes.
Seeing Xiuban charging at them, the level-3 Heaven Rank Blood Elf sneered, and slowly drew the bow in his hand, gathering a bloody arrow of light on the string.
“Stupid bastard reptile, you don’t even carry the features of a dragon, yet you call yourself a dragon. Go to hell…”
In the blink of an eye, the arrow crossed thousands of meters, and approached Xiuban. With bloodshot eyes, Xiuban waved Carnage and smashed the arrow into pieces. Then, he continued charging at the Blood Elf.
The Blood Elf seemed slightly surprised that the bloody arrow he was proud of didn’t work, but he wasn’t bothered at all. He stretched his bow again, shooting another three bloody arrows.
Unsurprisingly, the three bloody arrows were smashed into pieces by Carnage. However, the broken pieces of the arrows turned into countless smaller arrows, and chased after Xiuban.
All the smaller arrows hit Xiuban. Immediately, he was enshrouded in red light.
The Blood Elf stared at Darri coldly.
“Darri, dumb*ss, is he the help you found? Let me tell you, this place will be the Blood Elves’ territory from today on, and it will belong to me. You will answer for your stupidity today.
“Your blood will become the source of my power. I will let you die in pain. The helpers you’ve found will die just as miserably…”
With sympathy on his lizard face, Darri lowered his head, and mumbled, “Arrogant idiot, goodbye. Sir Xiuban’s bloodline power is getting greater and greater. How terrifying. Did he only use 10 percent of his strength? He has become five times stronger all of a sudden, and he doesn’t seem to be reaching his limits…”
A roar burst out in the sky, and the bloody brilliant that enshrouded Xiuban exploded. The dragon tattoo on Xiuban’s skin seemed infuriated, and turned into burning flames. Instantly, Xiuban charged at the arrogant Blood Elf in a streak of light.
The Blood Elf was surprised. The bird he was riding flapped its wings, trying to dodge. It was very fast, but all of a sudden, it seemed to have detected something, and was too horrified to fly any longer…
The Blood Elf unleashed his mana, and left the bird’s back. He dashed 200 meters in the blink of an eye. Considering his speed and agility, Xiuban shouldn’t be able to catch up to him.
Unfortunately, not just Xiuban, but the dragon tattoo on his skin had been infuriated too…
The abyssal blood dragon’s source of power was blood. They were among the top five groups that were good at using the power of blood. Yet, someone had attacked it with a blood spell…
It was a pure insult that could only be repaid with blood…
