Chapter 620 Beacon Of Death (3)

The Elven City on the fifth floor, the City Lord's mansion.

Elves with powerful auras were gathered within a spacious hall as they all wore gloomy expressions while looking at the six elves with somewhat pale expressions.

A handsome elf with fierce looks coldly spoke, "I don't know if you six are exaggerating or it's just that you are no longer worthy of the first-rate family statue. Not only did you guys fail to exhaust the 'monster' three times in a row, but you can't even gauge his accurate strength. What a bunch of trashes!"

The six elves trembled when they heard the berating of the elf, but they didn't dare to retort because this elf was from the Royal Family's branch, Louie Wisemen. Not only that, but he was one of the oldest elves on the fifth floor, and his 100-year time limit will expire in over one year.

Not only Louie but half of the elves sitting in this hall were in the same situation as Louie, and all of them were afraid of dying so they didn't take the next floor's test.

However, now that they got another chance, they naturally won't miss it and are here to fight for it. They arrived as fast as they could since they knew if someone else got the prize, they will regret it for life.

But, when they finally arrived in high spirits, they found that the 'Monster' was completely out of their imagination. Not only could he escape any formation traps, but even while trapped, he couldn't be hurt as no attack hit their mark.

No suppression or attacking talisman was working, and all the elves who were madly going after him could do nothing but gnash their teeth and haplessly come back after exhausting all their resources.

That's why this meeting was called by the 'Senior Elves' to collect all the information on the monster and create an ultimate alliance by combining every First-Rate Alliance together.

The six elves being berated were the leaders of the six largest First-Rate Alliances in the fifth-floor elven city. The oval face elven beauty was also present who had suffered terribly at Ace's hands, and she had no choice but to join this ultimate alliance.

However, these 'Senior Elves' were all sly foxes as they didn't dare to take action themselves and only sent them as scouting parties to exhaust the monster and measure his strength and abilities.

Yet, they failed every time despite trying every single method they could think of, and even the treasures given to them by these Senior Elves failed to hold back the Monster.

If the Monster weren't interested in killing them, they would've died hundreds of times already, but for some reason, he didn't attack and only dodged, which made everyone curious about why he was like this.

A middle-aged elf with an amiable smile said, "Lord Louie, there's no need to get angry at the youngsters. They had tried their best. It's just that the Monster is quite strong and far more rigors than we gave him credit for."

This elf was an Elf Elder of one of the royal family branches, Ernest Wisemen.

"Then what do you suggest, Elder? With every passing hour, the Monster is getting closer to the city." Another Elf Elder sighed with pursed lips.

"We'll wait," Ernest said meaningfully.

A beautiful young elf girl which a cold expression speaks, "Are you suggesting we should wait for him to come into the city and then kill him in one fell swoop?"

"Indeed, Lady Caylee." Ernest nodded, "We all know his final destination, which means we had an advantage, and if we used it wisely, there is no way that monster could get out of here alive, no matter how strong or careful he is.

"Besides, it is far better than exhausting our forces in hunting him. It will be wise to gather them in the city and have them defend the outer area while forming a defensive line."

"Heh, it is indeed feasible, but what if someone else delivers the killing blow and takes the reward in the end? Furthermore, who among us will take the final reward?" A tall elf sneered at this moment.

"The reward naturally belonged to whoever had the ability. But first, we need to stop that monster's advancement, and if we still fight against each other, it will be too late to regret later." Ernest coolly stated.

"Hmph, let me see who dares to snatch the last hit from the royal family. They will not have their lives to enjoy those rewards if they dare to meddle in the royal family's business." Louie coldly declared as he looked at some elves in the hall, and all of them lowered their head with indignation in their eyes.

But they didn't dare to speak since they all knew that the competition belonged to the royal family now, and they were now pawns. Alas, they were helpless even to resist since the royal family's forces were not something that first-rate alliances like theirs could challenge.

Now that the Royal Family were working together and all of their powerful members were gathered here, they had even less chance to resist.

"Where is the Monster right now? How much time do we have to set up the defensive line?" Caylee coldly inquired.

"According to our reports…" An elf was about to reply when the closed door was banged open, and a panic-stricken elf entered, disturbing the meeting.

A burly elf with a scar on his square chin frowned as he coldly asked, "What is it?" He was the city lord of the fifth-floor elven city, Vaughn Wisemen.

Every Royal Elf Family member had 'Wisemen' as their last name.

The elf blurted with panic, "Lord Vaughn, the Holy Mark, appeared within the city just ten seconds ago!"

"What?! Didn't I order you to block the gates and activate all the formations and heavily guard the gates? Then how the hell did that monster enter the city?!" Vaughn lost his cool as he roared in panic.

Everyone's eyes went wide when they heard this.

"We'll deal with this later. Now we need to take action quickly!" Ernest stood up with someone ugly expression.

Louie furiously roared, "Go, you fools, and summon everyone and tell them to stop him at all cost or they won't live to see another day if they dare to hold back!"

Ace looked at the hundreds of elves surrounding him while he was enveloped in the light pillar. Despite knowing the consequences of entering the elven city, he still entered.

As for the protective formations and closed gates, they couldn't stop him no matter what. If he wanted, he could've easily headed directly toward the next entrance and overpowered the elves guarding that place before the light pillar got activated.

But Ace didn't do it because he wanted to make sure the tower spirit won't pull such a stunt on the higher floors since there might be soul manifestation realm cultivators on the sixth floor or seventh floor.

To do that, he needed to kill these elves until the tower spirit believed that Ace was already under the influence of the soul segment like those elves and won't think of him as an anomaly.

As for these elves, he made them all believe that he wasn't attacking them by avoiding their ambushes and only dodging upon attack. Lastly, he wanted to achieve another thing by killing all the elves in the elven city, which was fear!

He wanted those elves who were still not in the city to tell those high-ranking elves what happened here, and even if the tower spirit pulled another trick, they would think twice before acting against him.

But it still remains to see if this method will work or not since there were soul segments in play here.

At this moment, those elves suddenly used long-range skills on Ace, and many arches shot Qi arrows. He was quickly enveloped in a torrent of oppressive Qis.

"Hmph!" Ace sneered at this moment before two swords appeared in his hand, and the very next moment, a sharp aura suddenly gushed out from his person.

Something unimaginable happened at this moment, which left these elves dumbfounded in horror.

The tsunami of Qi suddenly froze in its place before a powerful sword aura enveloped it, and the next moment, the frozen Qi suddenly burst into particles, creating terrifying shock waves which pushed those elves back a few meters.

However, it didn't end with just their attack being failed; when they regained their footing and looked toward Ace, their eyes widened in horror because there were hundreds of white sword lights above Ace's head, and there were still more sword lights manifesting.

They all sense terrifying sword intent from those light swords, and their murderous expressions turn into fear.

"Run, you fools!" An alliance leader roared in a horrified tone.

'Too late.' Ace's eyes turned ruthless, 'Eternal Thief's Swords; Thousand Soul Swords Wave!'

Thereby, all the manifest swords swished at a terrifying speed toward those elves like an unavoidable menace!
