Game of the World Tree

"Lord Wolf, it's time for the era of monarchs and nobility to end. If you lay down your weapons and surrender now, there may be a better ending..."

Surrounding Earl Wolf and the few dozen remaining knights, Tim the Hound rode on horseback and said condescendingly.

Around him, the mercenaries, like him, wore golden armbands on their arms.

Then, the crossbows that swiped in unison aimed at the nobles and knights in the center.

The golden armbands dyed with golden and silver fruits shone brightly in the sun, very dazzling.

The arrows attached with the [Armor Break] and [Sharpness] spell effects flashed coldly.

Facing the unkind gazes of the mercenaries, Wolff's eyes were filled with anger.

His eyes swept across the mercenaries and rebels, the light surging on his body, and the little sword lights converged on the long sword in his hand.

The gust of air blew the bucket cloak behind him, his hair was messy, his body was straight, he sneered, wildly and proudly:

"Surrender to the civilians?"

"Hehe... My Wolf family can surrender to the royal family, to the nobles, but never to the commoners!"

After speaking, he raised his long sword and roared:

"My knights, follow me and charge—!"

Behind him, the noble knights also shouted angrily and raised their long swords.

The bursts of sword light condensed on the long swords in their hands.

Then, the knights jumped up, followed Count Wolf, and rushed towards the mercenaries and rebels.

"That's such a pity..."

Tim the Hound shook his head slightly.

He raised his right hand and gave an order:

"Fire arrows!"

Whoosh whoosh--!

The mercenaries fired thousands of arrows at the dozens of nobles and knights who charged at them.

With the muffled sound of crossbow arrows entering the flesh, the nobles and knights fell to the ground one after another, and Count Wolf, who was at the forefront, was finally unable to resist more and more falling arrows after blocking an unknown number of arrows. Shot as a hedgehog.

He shook slightly and stopped.

Looking at the mercenaries in front of him, he looked grim, spat out a mouthful of blood, and then fell down unwillingly...

Those crimson eyes stared at the sky, as if he didn't even understand why the guards and mercenaries would defect.

Seeing the deaths of Count Wolf and the noble knights, cheers erupted from the resistance army.

They quickly rushed over and joined the mercenaries.

"Lord Tim! Lord Finn! Lord Maximilian!"

Senior officers waving flags greeted them.

"Where's Captain Bowen? Why didn't you see him?"

Tim glanced at the resistance army and asked.

"Sacrificed, the head of the commander sacrificed, and Fabian also sacrificed..."

The senior officer said with some sadness.

Tim was stunned for a moment, then moved with emotion.

He stretched out his hand and drew a symbol of the scepter of life on his chest, praying silently.

"Your Excellency Tim, the control of the legion has been seized, and the soldiers who have not rebelled have surrendered. What shall we do next?"

asked the senior officer.

After hearing his words, Tim the Hound and the other two mercenary regiments looked at each other and nodded.

"Go to Mania City, let's go to Mania City next!"

He said in a low voice.

"Mannia City?"

The senior officer was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, this is the plan we have already decided, and it is also the original plan of His Excellency Captain Bowen!"

Hound," Tim nodded.

After speaking, he looked in the direction of Mania City, his eyes gradually firmed:

"We will go to the city of Mannia, assist our companions in the city, and capture Doloria Prison together!"

"The Doloria Prison detains a lot of extraordinary powers who believe in the Church of Life. Only when we go there and release our companions in the prison will we gain enough strength to break through the inner city, break through the palace, break through The Eternal Cathedral of Empty!"

Hearing his words, the rebels' eyes lit up.

"Dororia Prison, Royal Palace, Eternal Cathedral..."

The senior officer muttered, and his expression became more and more excited.

I saw him raise the command sword, looked at the comrades beside him, and shouted:

"Brothers, capture Dorolia, release the believers of life, and break the palace and the eternal cathedral!"

The rebels also boiled:

"Take Doloria! Take down the Royal Palace and the Eternal Cathedral!"

"Long live life! Long live equality!"

the senior officer shouted again.

"Long live life! Long live equality!"

The soldiers also shouted frantically.

Immediately afterwards, the 7th Guards Corps, who had completely defected, surrounded the flags of the uprising, and rushed towards the direction of Mannia City with the mercenary mercenaries...

...

Mania City, Outer City.

On the street, more and more people gathered from all directions.

They are dressed in different clothes, old and young, male and female, holding various simple weapons in their hands, waving flags with yellow poles on a red background, and confronting the city guards who maintain order.

The only thing they have in common is the golden armband tied on their right arm.

Looking around, the streets that had become more deserted some time ago were densely packed with people at this moment.

It seemed that the entire outer city was boiling.

Fighting has broken out between the people and the city guards.

Although the strength of the civilians was very weak, the terrifying number made the soldiers tremble.

"Where's the reinforcements? Why haven't our reinforcements come yet? Where are the guards? Where are the imperial guards? Where are the noble guards in the inner city?"

The captain of the city guard roared as he chopped down another emaciated poor man who rushed up shouting "Long live life".

"It's messed up, Captain, it's all messed up! News came from other places just now that there are riots in various places in the outer city! The gates of the inner city have also been forcibly closed!"

Behind him, the soldier said in horror.

The captain's expression changed slightly.

Looking at more and more people, and feeling the mob that became more and more angry as the number of companions increased, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Retreat! Retreat to the outer city wall! Rely on the city wall to resist them!"

After finishing speaking, he took the soldiers of the city guard and moved with difficulty in the direction of the city wall.

The neighborhood is not far from the city walls.

A bloody road was killed among the weak civilians, and the city guard captain, who was covered in blood, quickly retreated to the city wall with the soldiers.

And after climbing the tall city wall and looking into the city of Mannia, the panting captain of the city guard quickly turned shocking...

The time has come to the yellow sun.

As the sun sets in the west, above the sky, a fiery red cloud continues to spread, extending into the distance, escaping into the boundless darkness.

The towering towers of Dorolia Castle and the spires of the Eternal Cathedral in the inner city complement each other in two directions, one is still in the light, but the other has gradually faded into darkness.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the magnificent ancient royal city, casting a dim light on Mannia.

Looking around, the entire outer city is full of fire, smoke billows, and the criss-crossed streets are full of dense crowds of people, like floods and tsunamis, and the closed inner city where the nobles live, forming two completely opposite worlds...

One after another, the shouts sounded on the streets of the outer city, and they continued to interweave and converge.

At this moment, even the city walls seemed to be shaken by people's cries.

Seeing this extremely shocking scene, the captain of the city guard was a little at a loss.

He didn't know how the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse, and the people fell into an unprecedented riot, which has developed to this level.

He only remembered that it seemed that it was about the afternoon when a beautiful fireworks exploded outside the city...

Since then, the outer city of Mania has gradually boiled over.

Looking at the spectacular scene in front of him, and thinking about the experience of this afternoon, the captain of the city guard who came from a small noble gradually came to his senses.

He looked grim and gritted his teeth:

"Rebellion!"

"This is a rebellion!"

"This is a premeditated rebellion initiated by the Life Cultists!"

And after cursing, he looked at the guards on the city wall:

"Isn't the magical defense barrier activated yet?!"

"Captain, Mannia's magical defense barrier has not been activated for many years, and the bishop of the church has left most of the time. It must take a certain amount of preparation time..."

The soldier in charge of maintaining the defensive barrier node said bitterly.

The captain of the guard was stunned for a moment, and his expression became more and more ugly.

Angrily, he slashed the wall with a sword, and turned his eyes to the city wall again.

I saw that on the main road that was close at hand, the civilians were holding a red flag with a gorgeous scepter inlaid on the flag.

They roared, shouting "long live life", "open the city gate", "destroy the defense node", and rushed towards the city wall...

Seeing this scene, the captain of the city guard became even more angry.

He raised his long sword with a grim expression, and ordered the archers on the city wall:

"Fire arrows! Kill these mobs!"

The captain of the city guard gave an order, but the archers on the city wall hesitated.

"Fire arrows! I order you to fire arrows! Didn't you hear?!"

The captain of the city guard shouted angrily again.

Hearing this, the guards struggled for a moment, and there was a trace of unbearableness in their eyes.

"I'll say it one last time, shoot the arrow!"

The captain of the city guard shouted angrily, raised his sword, and cut one of the archers in half.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up the crossbow in the opponent's hand, and took the lead in shooting an arrow towards the charging people outside the city wall, shooting down a beautiful girl holding a flag high.

The soldiers were startled.

Looking at the captain's crazy-looking appearance, they froze in their hearts, and a trace of panic flashed in their eyes.

In the end, they still gritted their teeth and shot the arrows in their hands.

For a time, a rain of arrows shot from the city wall, fell into the street, and fell into the crowd.

The civilians in the outer city who participated in the uprising fell like reaping wheat, and soon fell a large area in the rain of arrows.

However, the following people still did not stop.

Their expressions became more angry, and their roars became louder.

I saw them holding their weapons high, passing over the bodies of their companions, taking the flags in their hands, waving, shouting, and continuing to charge towards the city wall...

Looking at this group of poor people who looked like crazy monsters, the captain of the city guard's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

You know, in the past riots, as long as you shoot arrows at these guys, they will run away.

This time, however, it was beyond his expectations.

"Mad! These lunatics who were bewitched by the Church of Life!"

The captain of the city guard cursed.

Then, he turned his head and roared at the soldiers on the city wall:

"What are you still doing? Shoot arrows! Keep shooting arrows!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his neck felt cold.

The heat rushed out from his neck, and the captain of the city guards saw a hint of horror in the eyes of the soldiers looking at him.

His throat "clucked" a few times, only to feel that the blood in the throat continued to rise, and it was gushing out like a fountain.

Struggling to turn around, the captain of the city guard saw a tall, hooded figure appearing behind him.

The other party is slowly putting away the dagger in his hand.

Behind the tall and slender figures, there are more figures in uniforms, with eagle mouth hoods and golden cuffs.

They either jumped over the buildings next to the city wall, or climbed up from under the city wall and stood behind him.

A gust of evening wind blew and lifted the corners of their hoods, revealing exquisite and perfect chins, cold eyes, and faintly pointed ears...

"Spirit...spirit..."

The city guard captain's pupils shrank.

He wanted to say something, but the elf at the head kicked him out of the city wall, like kicking a sack.

The body flew out like a kite with a broken string, and the consciousness of the captain of the city guard gradually blurred.

And when he fell from the city wall, he finally saw the waves of dust swaying in the distance outside the city.

A large number of imperial guards and mercenaries appeared on the horizon.

Aid... army...

The gradually blurred consciousness brushed a trace of clarity, and the captain of the city guard was finally relieved.

However, just at the moment he was relieved, he saw the red flag of the scepter fluttering in the team like a nightmare...

At that moment, he was stunned.

The next second, he fell to the ground, splashing a cloud of blood, and his consciousness fell into eternal darkness.

Only stunned eyes stared at the sky.

On the other side, above the city wall.

The elf who kicked down the captain of the city guard folded his right leg and lifted his hood, revealing a flaming red hair.

It was Demacia.

I saw that he replaced the dagger with the big sword he took out from the storage ring, carried it on his body, and looked at the remaining soldiers.

Both sides, looking at each other.

"Put down your weapons and open the city gate, otherwise... his fate will be yours."

Demacia pointed outside the city wall with her great sword and said.

Behind him, other players also drew their weapons.

The power of the golden rank burst out, showing an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The sound of hooves came from outside the city wall, and the resistance army composed of the Seventh Legion and mercenaries was gradually approaching.

The soldiers looked at the elf, and then settled on the flag of the scepter that was flying in the army outside the city, and they swallowed.

There was a "click", and it was unknown who dropped the weapon first.

Immediately afterwards, the remaining soldiers also dropped their weapons.

They slowly raised their hands and chose to surrender.

At the same time, people holding red flags also climbed the city wall.

They cut the ropes, and in the cry of "Long live", the tight city gates were completely opened...
