Chapter 253: 253

Chapter 253 Please Nerf the Warlocks

a bonfire party was a traditional evening activity for elves .

privileges of entertainment were understandable since the elves could live a thousand years without meeting any danger their whole lives .

however, different from the corrupt means of entertainment of human nobles, the bonfire party of the elves was positive and even sophisticated .

around a bonfire, the elves at the party would display the artwork they recently made, such as paintings, poems, or sculptures for their friends to appreciate .

when they were done talking about art, they would sing and dance .

such a bonfire would usually last until dawn .

a lot of things had to be prepared when one was to throw such a party .

for example, they had to prepare the special firewood that had a pleasant fragrance and wouldn’t yield too much smoke . fruits, wine, and fresh meat were compulsory too .

in the end, they had to inform the possible participants of the party of the time and location of the party .

delivering invitations to them could be a troublesome job .

it was because the elf forest was huge and the population of the elves was small . they were all distant from each other, and it could be time-consuming when a lot of people had to be notified .

but still, ans completed the job carefully .

also, in case the many guests he invited felt crowded, he considerately divided the bonfire party into two parts .

the leadership of nature’s wrath was on the east, and the other elves were on the west not far away .

although the elves’ sense of hierarchy was not as strong as that of mankind, they still had it .

the night soon fell . after arranging the party at the two places with his subordinates, ans, exhausted, sat on a single chair that was in the luxurious style of the elves and took a rest .

a male elf came to him . he had the handsome look of a normal elf and smiled . “ans, thank you for your trouble . you’re always so careful . ”

ans opened his eyes; it was already dark . because of the tall trees in the elf forest that blocked the sunlight, the night fell much earlier here than in the human world .

he snapped his fingers, and a bright purple ball of light illuminated the place .

it was an illumination skill of the elves . because the leaves of the world tree were purple, purple was the most honored color among the elves .

as a result, even the rays of their illumination skills were purple too .

“graniso, why are you here instead of accompanying your expectant wife?”

“don’t mention it . she kicked me out . ” graniso pulled a chair and sat down, then he smiled gently . “she said that a man should be doing things outside instead of pacing around a woman all the time . that was so unfair . i only wanted to spend some time with her . but you know how moody an expectant woman can be . ”

ans asked, “have you thought of a name for the baby yet?”

“i chose it a long time ago,” graniso said excitedly . “if it’s a boy, jakka, and if it’s a girl, nanna . ”

ans nodded . “they’re great names . rest assured, you’re going to have a healthy baby . ”

“thank you . ” graniso patted ans’s shoulder . “then, when are you getting married? many beautiful girls are waiting for you . ”

“i don’t want to pursue love before my dream is realized . ” ans shook his head .

while they talked, more and more elves gathered . they carried an assortment of items with them, including baskets of fruits, strange sculptures, and some snacks . everybody around the bonfire seemed to be smiling .

looking around, ans stood up and said, “all right, most everyone is here . let’s get started . ”

the elves were familiar with each other . therefore, there were no boring speeches or self-introductions at the beginning of the party .

ans walked forward and ignited the enormous pile of firewood at the center of the gathering .

as more and more pieces of wood were ignited, the bonfire grew brighter and brighter .

the elves around the bonfire all clapped their hands .

a party of around twenty people would be neither too crowded nor too awkward .

the elves exchanged and appreciated each other’s artworks .

ans sat down and enjoyed the fruit wine .

not far away, another bright fire was ignited . obviously, the leadership of nature’s wrath started their bonfire party too .

ans sat and smiled in silence .

he knew that something unusual would happen soon, but he was not anxious at all .

when he finished a cup of fruit wine, graniso approached and sat down next to him . “wow . dolly has made great progress in painting!”

ans’s eyes glittered . “really? i’m going to take a look . ”

actually, he couldn’t care less about painting at this moment, but he pretended to be curious .

but the moment he rose, he noticed a bright and transparent magic wall rising far away .

the strong light of the wall could be seen despite the blockage of the dense trees .

“what are the leaders of nature’s wrath doing?” graniso scratched his head in confusion . “that magic wave is weird . are they doing human magic experiments?”

many people noticed the anomaly too . they all stood up and pointed at the wall, whispering to each other .

observing it in silence for a few seconds, ans said to graniso, “something seems to be wrong . i’m going to take a look . ”

“i’ll go with you . ” graniso rose and stood next to him .

shoulder to shoulder, they walked toward the shining wall .

four minutes later, they arrived at the foot of the wall .

both of them were extremely surprised . graniso even swallowed .

“what’s this?”

an ivory curtain of light rose to the sky and blocked their way . after a shock, ans took off and flew higher and higher with elven spells . he did not see the complete picture of the shining wall until he was two hundred meters high .

it was a square, glittering, massive barrier that covered almost eight hundred acres .

descending from the sky, ans said to graniso quickly, “inform the other members of nature’s wrath . i think something is wrong . ”

“okay . ” graniso ran back quickly .

soon, ans was left alone .

he had been looking grave, but now he put on a smile .

inside the massive barrier, hawk’s team were all stunned .

they had been fully prepared for an ambush, but two minutes after the people of nature’s wrath lit the bonfire, the quest system dropped a notification on their system menu .

“epic quest activated . a large dungeon environment has been established for six hours until all the elves within the dungeon are executed . ”

after the notification, the surrounding space was immediately locked down by a special barrier .

the members of nature’s wrath who were about to have a party, all shocked, grabbed their weapons vigilantly .

it was impossible to ambush the elves now . hawk simply stood up from the bush and roared, “forget it! just attack!”

then, he charged at the bonfire before everybody else, closely followed by link .

dorfer, the hunter, stood up and shot three consecutive arrows at an elf next to the bonfire .

the warlock summoned his maggot and gave the order “squirt poop . ”

the three-meter-long maggot wriggled and bulged . eventually, all its bulging parts were gathered at the center of its body, before it spurted out a mass of black and yellow stuff .

the hunter was subconsciously taking breath after just shooting three consecutive arrows .

but the moment he inhaled, a strange smell squeezed into his lungs through his nose . he trembled and paled .

then, he stepped back and gagged, before he looked in fear at the maggot which was “accumulating strength” again .

dorfer stepped further away .

the previous three consecutive arrows did not land . the target dodged them and had found his location .

then, multiple bows were aimed at him . even though dorfer and solomon the warlock were more than a hundred meters away, they felt that pointy weapons seemed to have been stuck to their forehead .

but thankfully, the black and yellow stuff the maggot spurted out had reached the people of nature’s wrath in a parabola .

a male elf, who was the tallest among them and had dragon horns on his forehead like margret did, raised his staff and pointed at the black and yellow stuff, launching a small fireball .

then… it exploded .

the black and yellow stuff, heated and sticky, fell like boiled rainwater .

the coverage was appallingly huge .

many people of nature’s wrath were stained . they extended their fingers and rubbed some of the matter off . they observed it and even sniffed it .

for intelligent creatures, they needed time to recognize special, stimulative smells, which could take a couple of seconds .

after that… the twelve elves near the bonfire trembled hard with pale faces, both disgusted and infuriated, as if someone had killed their whole family .

three of them were even vomiting in fury .

the male elf with dragon horns lowered his head and looked at the stains on his clothes . then he slowly raised his head .

his previously green eyes were now bloodshot .

his body expanded nonstop, green magic power around him . in no more than two seconds, he became a green dragon six meters long and four meters tall .

the green dragon flapped his wings, and a thunderous roar rumbled under the sky . “filthy and shameless human beings, i’m going to kill you!”

at this point, the maggot, which had accumulated enough material, squirted a second time .

in the meantime, the fireball in roland’s hand expanded to around half a meter in diameter .
