Chapter 568: There is no hope, just wait to die

Swish!
Lana returned to the node center, desperately resisting the impact from the contamination, layer after layer.

The entire magic array node was bursting with light, attempting to contain the impact of the pollution wave.

However, such a simple artificial magic array was simply no match for the surging waves of pollution.

Lana sensed that the nodes set up by the other teams were losing contact one after another, indicating that the nodes had been breached and the area had been completely contaminated.

Lana is still struggling to hold on.

At this moment, a complex magic circle emerged from the secondary node set up by Celia, slowly connecting with the entire control magic circle.

The next moment, Lana felt the pressure lessen considerably.

She looked at the node that was flashing a steady light with surprise, her eyes showing disbelief.

"Such a stable point."

The magic array pattern at that node was very stable, as if it had not been affected by the wave of pollution at all.

In contrast, other nodes are flashing wildly, constantly on the verge of breaking.

The distant nodes have already shattered, while the nearby ones, with the support of Celia's node, are barely able to hold on.

But it's estimated that they won't be able to hold out for long.

Lana gritted her teeth and shouted to her teammates, "Don't just stand there, quickly ask them where they are!"

When things changed in the contaminated area, she asked her teammates to urgently call the purification team, which was Elena's team.

Lana wasn't the only one to make an emergency call; other elf teams from different areas also made emergency calls, and they responded quickly, saying they were rushing to the location and asking the elves to hold on.

"Captain Lana, we've received word that it will take two hours for them to arrive."

"Two hours..."

Lana's face turned pale.

She felt that the impact of the pollution wave, after it had weakened, was slowly getting stronger.

It's unclear whether they're genuinely getting stronger, or if the nodes set up by Celia are weakening.

Neither of these is good news.

Other nodes, under the influence of the sensor, slowed down their breaking speed, but nodes were still breaking at all times.

There were about twenty nodes in total, each with a third-tier mage as the node's artificial magic crystal. At this moment, only half an hour after the impact, half of the nodes had completely disappeared.

However, Lana had no time to care about what had happened to those nodes that had lost their connection.

She was gritting her teeth and holding on, her magic running at full speed.

The blessing of the Elf Forest allows every elf who leaves their mark in the Elf Forest to establish a connection with it.

As long as they are within the Elf Forest, their magic recovery rate will increase significantly.

However, Lana felt her magic power rapidly draining from her body and became somewhat pessimistic, unsure if she could hold on for two hours until the purification team arrived.

Seeing Lana's condition, the others volunteered, "Captain, why don't we go in and help you too?"

Lana gritted her teeth and refused: "Don't come in. You are only at the second level, and your magic power is far too low. You will be drained quickly as soon as you come in, and you will also distract me."

"Okay, then good luck, Captain! We believe in you!"

Fortunately, although some of the four teammates were prone to suspicion and questioning anyone they didn't know, they trusted Lana and didn't deliberately come in to cause trouble.

Lana saw the four people outside, looking like they wanted to help but didn't know how. She said helplessly, "You can go and take a look at those broken magic circle patterns and see what's going on over there. If you can, try to repair them... Forget it, don't bother repairing them. If they get contaminated, they won't be so easy to heal."

"This pollution is the bane of elves! Those wretched dark elves! If I catch them, I'll make sure they're publicly executed!" the female elf said through gritted teeth.

These pollutants contain rich life elements, which are very compatible with the spirits. Compared to ordinary people, they are more susceptible to being invaded by these pollutants.

Their resistance was even lower than that of ordinary humans. The four of them split up and went to check the situation at other secondary nodes.

They arrived at the node that Celia had set up, and looking at the intact node, they all showed expressions of disbelief.

There was no time to amaze them, so they quickly made their escape.

Lana was immersed in resisting the repeated onslaught of the polluted tide.

The waves surged in waves, making her feel as if her body was being constantly washed around, causing her immense pain.

"I can do it!" Lana gritted her teeth and shouted silently, "For my sister!"

One by one, the other team nodes she sensed disappeared, and slowly, Lana felt that all the nodes had vanished.

It's as if you're the only person in the world, rising and falling with the tides, wave after wave.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but Lana felt dazed and confused, only managing to stay awake with a sliver of willpower.

Of course, it was actually Celia's miniature magic circle that worked, protecting her from the contamination.

Apart from her place, the rest of the world had long been submerged by pollution.

Just when Lana felt she couldn't hold on any longer, a pure, natural, and sacred light emanated from her.

This strange power enveloped Lana, pulling her out of her dazed state.

Lana looked up and saw that the surroundings had been submerged in pollution, with only her node and the node that Celia had set up still glowing.

She glanced to the side and saw a group of people slowly approaching her, carried by the polluted tide.

Lana saw a familiar face.

"Elena!"

A surge of intense hope welled up within her, and she cried out.

Elena looked at her, and her voice came through:

"You've worked hard, Lana. You can rest now."

These words acted like a softening agent, gently easing her tense nerves. Lana instantly collapsed, only to be caught by a quick-thinking elf.

Elena walked over and erected a life shield at the spot. She looked at the unconscious Lana with great surprise.

"She can actually last that long, is she that amazing?"

An older elf standing beside Elena looked at the node that was still glowing steadily with curiosity.

That point is like a reef that is forever fixed on the coast, no matter how the waves crash against it, it remains as solid as a rock and as stable as Mount Tai.

"Who set up this node? It's so powerful!"

Elena looked over and frowned slightly.

She felt that he looked familiar, but she couldn't figure out where the familiarity came from.

She looked at the unconscious Lana and shook her head slightly.

Never mind, I'll ask her when she wakes up.

"Elder, please send her back. Such a promising talent cannot be allowed to be tainted by filth."

The elven elder nodded and asked, "How is it? Can you remove the filth here?"

Elena looked at the surging waves of pollution and said helplessly, "What do you think? Although I received the blessing of the gods and successfully cultivated the Life School of magic, which can separate pollution from life elements, there is still a limit. This place is like cutting the main artery of the Elf Forest. I can't solve it. It's hopeless. We might as well pack our bags and leave as soon as possible."

"What...what are you saying!"
