Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree-Chapter 368 - 351: Large-Scale War Mission

"The new mission was coming!"

With the return of the player delegation, the recording of their agreement with the underground races was quickly uploaded to the forum.

Messages like "Underworld," "City-State War," "Participate to Receive Equipment," flooded the forum’s comment section and sparked intense discussions among players:

"A new map! It had to be a new map, definitely! And an Underworld map at that! A mysterious labyrinth, a cryptic underground city... Just the thought of it was thrilling!"

"Is a new map opening up again so soon? I haven’t even finished exploring the current map... This game’s map is just too huge."

"That’s why it’s called an epic masterpiece! Compared to ’Elf Kingdom,’ the maps in other games are as tiny as playing house—no sense of realism at all!"

"What kind of new mission was it?"

"Didn’t you look carefully? It’s a war mission!"

"Holy shit! A war mission? Could we engage in a massive brawl across the server again? Who are we fighting this time?"

"The Underworld, it had to be the underground races, and all participating players could get equipment provided by the Silent Dwarves!"

"Damn! Participating meant equipment made by the Silent Dwarves was free? This was possible! The equipment ratings from Black Rock City were always rare blue or higher! Selling a set could fetch quite a lot of contribution points! I had to go! I had to go!" fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

After seeing the agreement footage exposed by several guild leaders, all players who had participated in war missions were excited... Everyone was eager to try, filled with anticipation for the upcoming mission.

Meanwhile, the figures of old players began appearing in large numbers in various Natural Temples and the central plaza of the Chosen City.

They all chose to enter the exchange mall simultaneously, painfully spending their previously saved-up contribution points, hoping to quickly exchange for a skill or item that would enhance their strength, trying to improve their abilities as much as possible before the mission officially arrived.

Everyone was an old hand at war missions, knowing that in this type of mission, whoever was stronger and killed more enemies would gain the most!

So... of course, they had to quickly adjust their state to the peak.

Even the lifestyle players who lived in the Chosen City year-round almost all chose to cram for the last minute, also beginning their war preparations.

This kind of mission had a great appeal to them as well, even slowing down the Mengmeng Committee’s expansion of the Chosen City.

And so... various inferior Magic Potions sold among players were almost instantly snatched up, falling short of demand; while some alchemical products like homemade gunpowder packs also almost reached sky-high prices...

All players interested in this mission were preparing in every possible way.

The new fourth-test players, watching the excited old players, were filled with curiosity.

Some newcomers couldn’t help but express their confusion:

"What are war missions, seniors? You all seem so excited."

And the questioner quickly received enthusiastic explanations from the old hands:

"Hey! By asking that, you must not have watched the game videos of ’Elf Kingdom,’ right?"

"War missions are probably the most thrilling and rewarding missions in ’Elf Kingdom’!"

"Thousands of people in group battles, the scene... Once you’ve experienced it, you’ll be addicted! This is different from other games—here... you can feel truly astonishing warfare!"

"Not only that, in every war mission, as long as you’re strong enough and cunning enough, you can earn a big haul! If you’re lucky, you could accumulate tens of thousands of contribution points in a single battle and level up several times!"

The old players’ replies naturally awed the new players:

"Holy shit! Was it really that strong? I’ve been grinding for half a month, and after buying equipment, I still only had less than a thousand contribution points... I had to go too!"

Of course, he was soon doused by the old players:

"Heh heh, don’t get excited too early, this was going to the Underworld, and the Underworld map opens at level 11. Better level up properly."

"There was a level restriction? No more talking, I’m off to grind missions."

Listening to the old players, the new fourth-test players hurriedly went to find NPCs to get missions.

"Hahaha! But don’t worry... From the looks of the recordings, those NPCs said this war might last a long time, perhaps becoming a long-term mission."

Player discussions could be heard almost everywhere in the Chosen City, and knowing the Underworld required level 11 to enter, the new fourth-test players began working even harder on grinding missions and slaying monsters.

They all hoped to quickly advance to Black Iron Rank before the mission officially started so they could also participate in this war mission eagerly praised by the old players.

Of course, it had been more than ten days since the fourth-test started, and those true grind lords were already not far from this goal. Some wealthy individuals or newbies with friends among the old players had even reached the Black Iron Rank threshold through monetary resources or by finding a powerful ally.

In just a few hours, the entire Elf Forest was like a massive war machine, slowly running its course...

Perceiving the fast consumption of contribution points by the old players in the game’s system and the sudden acceleration of mission-grinding speed by new players, Eve sighed internally, *War really was a good way to boost productivity and spending capacity!*

After a little joke to herself, she quickly issued the task through the system in the form of a system mission—

[Ding——]

[Large-scale War Mission: "The Underworld City-State War" is starting]

[Mission Objective: Assist the Silent City State Alliance, which worshiped Death God Hela, in defeating the Dark City State Alliance]

[Mission Time Limit: None]

[Mission Participants: Unlimited]

[Mission Level: Level 11]

[Mission Rewards: All players who accept the mission and participate in the battle will receive Dark Dwarves crafted Black Iron Rank equipment; Successfully completing the mission grants the exclusive title "Elf Veteran"; Successfully completing the mission earns three raffle tickets for the lucky prize pool]

To be honest, for this war mission, the rewards Eve provided weren’t really much.

The equipment was provided by Hela’s believers, the title was purely "honor," and the real reward was just the three raffle tickets.

Nonetheless, less than ten minutes after the mission officially started, almost all the online old players accepted the mission.

And as time went on, the number of players accepting the mission shown in the system continued to steadily increase; many people logged in hurriedly after hearing the news in real life, fearing the mission might change.

Having gone through several war missions, everyone knew that the most generous rewards from such large-scale missions didn’t come from the mission rewards, but from the loot during the mission!

So, even if Eve only gave three raffle tickets, the players remained full of enthusiasm.

The players’ enthusiasm was extremely high.

And during this time, the mission of the Silent City State Alliance’s embassy was finally completed when they visited Black Rock City—they constructed an ultra-long-distance Teleportation Array in the city connecting the alliance city-states.
