Chapter 214: The Destruction of the Elven Court
Chapter 214: The Destruction of the Elven Court
"Indeed, it's a fake tomb. This Moonstone Queen didn't die." Qin Muye, viewing the Moonstone Queen's tomb through a remote video feed, saw an elven skeleton inside. However, according to the tests, it was definitely not the Moonstone Queen. The residual elements and magic on the bones clearly indicated that it was just an ordinary elf.
Soon, Qin Muye led his people to the Elven Court.
Before the elves could even ask what was happening, a massive barrage of firepower descended. They didn't even have time to activate their magical barriers, and the entire court was filled with cries of agony.
He had acted without leaving any trace, purely on a whim. How could the elves have been prepared?
"Lord Red Wind, how dare you attack? Aren't you afraid—"
Bang~
The indignant voice was cut off by a series of explosions.
Qin Muye had suffered for so long, just to achieve a crushing victory. The elf who had spoken might have been a 6th-rank hero unit, but his body was not as sturdy, and he was killed instantly.
He was probably a mage or archer.
Then, a terrifying wave of energy began to rise, showing on his energy radar as a transition from 6th to 7th rank, a very stable one.
It was clear that the Moonstone Queen had been forced out.
The entire Elven Court had already been reduced to ruins under the bombardment. Unless they had a 6th-rank entity capable of being invincible at their level, there was no way they could withstand such a large-scale firepower attack.
"Lock onto the source of the energy fluctuation and initiate Level 2 concentrated firepower."
The normal barrage of firepower, Level 1, mostly used conventional weapons.
When facing a more formidable enemy, such as the Moonstone Queen who was advancing to 7th rank, he had to use a higher level of weaponry.
Currently, he only had Level 3, with the highest level being a full-power or even overloading attack against 7th-rank enemies. Whether he could defeat her or not, Qin Muye couldn't be sure.
He had theoretical data, but no practical experience.
As the Level 2 concentrated firepower continued to focus, the originally stable energy fluctuations of the enemy began to become chaotic.
Qin Muye couldn't see who was being attacked, as various types of ammunition and energy explosions and decays made visibility almost non-existent. Even a one-centimeter visibility would be considered minimal under his firepower coverage.
In a war, why bother with close combat? Just eliminate the enemy.
After about three minutes, Qin Muye noticed that the Moonstone Queen's energy fluctuations had disappeared.
"Dead? That seems unlikely, as the settlement for this battle in Lord Era hasn't been finalized yet."
"Could she have escaped?"
Qin Muye opened the main surveillance to check for any spatial fluctuations. The entire Elven Court was already under his spatial lockdown, and it was impossible to leave by normal means. The only way out was to break through Qin Muye's spatial blockade.
However, his spatial lockdown was not ordinary. It was centered around a hyper-dimensional teleportation channel, with the aid of an extraterrestrial maze lock. Any attempt to leave would alert him, making it impossible to leave silently unless the entity was 7th rank. Unfortunately, the Moonstone Queen was only 6th rank.
During the concentrated firepower attack, the Moonstone Queen had no spare energy to advance to 7th rank. Even if she were a protagonist capable of leveling up in battle... well, protagonists can do it, but Qin Muye didn't believe the Moonstone Queen had that kind of potential.
If she had such potential, she would have already stormed into Qin Muye's floating city and wreaked havoc, rather than being reduced to the point where her energy fluctuations were gone.
"She must have faked her death. She's definitely not dead." Qin Muye thought for a moment and decided she was still alive.
He didn't plan to send anyone down to investigate. As a lord with financial power, he decided to bombard the area for another half hour to see if anything could still survive.
If there was no settlement after half an hour, he would continue with a full-hour bombardment.
If there was still no response, Qin Muye would have to call it a day.
What else could he do? He couldn't keep attacking indefinitely.
"Hmm, there was a spatial fluctuation just now. It seems someone was watching?"
Qin Muye suddenly noticed something unusual. "Someone, track down who was there just now."
Soon, a goblin began the reverse tracking.
He had expected it to be the offspring of an ancient god, but seeing the result, he fell silent. The visitor was the Elven God, who had sensed the abnormality in the Elven Court and rushed to the scene, disregarding his own injuries.
As soon as the door opened, he saw the brutal scene of the firepower coverage and artillery bombardment, so he quickly retreated back inside after taking a step out.
The Elven Court was gone, but it didn't matter much since there were still other places with elves. The Elven God could guide them to rebuild the Elven Court. However, if he were to be pulled into the bombardment, he would surely lose his life.
"Running pretty fast, huh? I'll deal with the Moonstone Queen first, and then I'll find some trumped-up charges to invite the Elven God over for a visit," Qin Muye thought and decided to let the Elven God go for now.
The person had already run away, and it was too late to catch up. However, he could still attack the temple. He would visit with his floating city and ensure the Elven God cooperated.
Twenty minutes passed, and it seemed the Moonstone Queen couldn't keep up the act any longer. She hadn't expected Qin Muye to be so ruthless, launching such a widespread attack.
"Damn, this is quite bizarre," Qin Muye noticed that the Moonstone Queen was now fighting for her life. Large amounts of flesh began to regenerate amidst the countless artillery shells, and a strange face kept healing itself from the damage. Numerous elemental energies formed a protective barrier, trying to resist the bombardment.
At first, it seemed to work, but soon the barrier was easily torn apart, as Qin Muye had extensive experience dealing with energy.
With the Moonstone Queen's anguished howls, the massive mass of flesh was eventually shredded, vaporized by the high temperatures, and annihilated by the elements.
【A glorious battle.】
【.】
【Obtained a Gold Treasure Chest (Hero)】
【.】
As the settlement for the battle in Lord Era appeared, Qin Muye let out a sigh of relief, and all the firepower attacks ceased simultaneously.
"The cost was a bit high. I used nearly three million reserve magic and about 5% of my ammunition. Indeed, war is about money," Qin Muye observed his reserve magic and various ammunition stocks.
"Fortunately, my ammunition is self-produced, and I control the raw materials. I need to stock up more."
At this point, he was more focused on stocking weapons rather than food. He would directly raid other races to get what he needed. After all, why have so many weapons and ammunition otherwise?
"To ensure the best way to stock up on food."
"I'll open this treasure chest later. Right now, the priority is to capture the Elven God."
He thought that since the Garden Elves' luck was closely tied to the Elven God, he needed to take the Elven God as well. Otherwise, what would happen if the Elven God died when the ancient gods returned?
Keeping the Elven God in a petri dish in his floating city's laboratory would be absolutely safe. As long as the floating city wasn't destroyed by the ancient gods, Qin Muye would not let the Elven God be captured by them.
As for the possible ancient god offspring in other races, he would deal with them later. First, he needed to boost the overall luck.
Who knows, he might get something better from the treasure chest. He realized that a Gold Treasure Chest could only produce one item, unlike lower-quality chests that could produce multiple items.
It was probably because the item produced was of Epic quality.
"Have you managed to trace the location of the Elven God's divine kingdom?" Qin Muye asked.
"The reverse analysis is still ongoing. This will take some time, as the spatial equipment you installed on the floating city mainly focuses on protection and mobility, not high-level tracking," the goblin explained.
Qin Muye didn't blame him, as the goblin was right. The spatial equipment on his floating city was mostly for protection and escape, not for advanced tracking.
So, even though they had some clues, it wasn't easy to catch the Elven God.
After all, they were all new to this.
The goblin was sweating profusely, knowing the urgency of the situation.
"Don't worry, take your time. This kind of thing can't be rushed. Even if we don't find it, there are other ways to capture the Elven God," Qin Muye reassured him.
If all else failed, he could go to Feiyun. He had just fought with the Elven God recently, and getting the location or spatial coordinates in exchange for a price would not be a big deal.
