Outrageous! I started as the Elf King!

Chapter 49 What audacity!

She had forgotten how many years it had been since she had heard those names.

She had never seen the gryphon riders, especially those belonging to the nature elves, as if they had disappeared into the long river of history long ago.

For a moment, the Elf Elder was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.

But just then, she seemed to have thought of something.

"Are these lizardmen planning to seek refuge with a swamp tribe?"

"No wonder most of them are so young."

The lizardmen living in the ruins of the ancient elven city are not much different from the lizardmen of the swamp region, except for their living environment, but they still belong to the same race.

As the elven elder watched the lizardman caravan quickly pass through the breach in the city wall, he couldn't help but think to himself, "If we allow these lizardmen to enter the swamp tribe, the news that there are nature spirits in the ruins will surely spread."

"At that time, who knows how many powerful evil forces will be attracted here."

Thinking of this, the Elf Elder immediately calmed himself down and then jumped off the city wall.

Soon after, she arrived at the front of the lizardman group.

They are about a kilometer apart.

It was nighttime, the moon was dim and the stars were few, and she had also concealed her magical fluctuations, making it difficult for the lizardmen to detect her presence.

She took out a handful of seeds from her personal spatial equipment and scattered them in the nearby area.

Then they waited quietly for the fish to take the bait.

……

About ten minutes later~

The lizardmen finally arrived, albeit belatedly.

The Elf Elder waited a few more moments until all the hundreds of lizardmen were within her encirclement before she waved her magic staff.

A shimmering green light rippled outwards~

The seeds scattered by the Elf Elder immediately took root and sprouted in the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It only takes a few seconds.

Those seeds turned into hundreds of cannibalistic flowers.

Each ogre flower grows to several meters tall, with not only a huge and ferocious maw, but also branches that resemble thorny tentacles.

As soon as the man-eating flower appeared, it immediately opened its huge mouth and bit the lizardman who was standing in front of it.

For those a little further away, they will pierce them one by one with branches.

In a very short time, hundreds of lizardmen were infected.

Screams, screams...

It rang out instantly.

The entire team fell into chaos.

Apart from the elite lizardman warriors who were able to barely maintain their composure, the other lizardmen were fleeing for their lives, like headless flies.

However, the more they tried to escape, the faster they died.

Because the surrounding area is full of man-eating flowers.

Once this demonic plant experiences slaughter, it becomes even more bloodthirsty.

Any prey that gets close is either eaten in one bite or pierced by the barbed branches.

"The Man-Eating Flower!"

"How can there be so many carnivorous flowers here!"

A lizardman warrior roared in terror.

They frequently use this road, which is considered a safe passage. The sudden appearance of hundreds of man-eating flowers, which then surround and slaughter them, is clearly man-made.

"Are they the elves from the ruins?"

"Impossible! This is clearly not the work of nature spirits..."

At that moment, a lizardman warrior spotted the elven elder's figure standing in the darkness. The encirclement was complete, and she no longer needed to hide.

"Who are you, and why are you trying to kill us?"

The lizardman warrior roared in anger.

Because the light was too dim, and because the Elf Elder was dressed in a long black dress and had a hood over his head, it couldn't recognize him. The Elf Elder walked slowly towards it.

The magic wand in his hand rippled with circles of pink light.

The halo spread outwards in invisible waves, quickly enveloping the entire battlefield.

The lizardman warrior was the first to be attacked.

I instantly felt dizzy and quickly entered a hallucination.

At that moment, it seemed to realize something and blurted out, "You're a flower fairy!!"

The flower fairy clan is best at cultivating magical plants.

Secondly, there's charm, and then healing.

Charm is a form of mental control that can subtly draw enemies into an illusion.

The Elf Elder remained unresponsive. Under her control, all the lizardmen on the battlefield were trapped in an illusion from which they could not escape, and even after being eaten by the man-eating flower, they could not regain their senses.

This is simply a matter of suppressing force.

The Elf Elder is an extraordinary professional.

Of the hundreds of lizardmen present, the highest level was only ninth rank. Most of them were still in their infancy, equivalent to low-level professionals, and naturally could not resist the illusionary power of the Elf Elder.

Next comes the finishing touches.

The Elf Elder used the man-eating flower to wipe out the lizardmen from the battlefield.

In the end, only the lizardman warrior was spared, and the nearby ogre flowers were used to bind him.

She dispelled the illusion and said coldly, "Now, I'll ask, you answer!"

"If you don't behave, you'll be its food!"

"I'll definitely listen!"

That lizardman warrior wasn't exactly a tough nut to crack.

The thought of a ferocious mouth full of sharp teeth hanging above its head made it even more fearful.

The Elder Elf asked, "What about the nature spirits inside the ruins? Where did they come from?"

The lizardman warrior quickly replied, "I don't know either. I only speculate that they came from the inner city of the ruins. They suddenly appeared during the day and destroyed more than a dozen of our tribes."

The Elder Elf continued, "How many nature elves are there in total?"

The lizardman warrior said, "I'm not sure, but it should be over five thousand. Because they have four legions, and each legion has more than a thousand elves."

The Elf Elder's breathing quickened slightly.

Five thousand natural spirits, that's quite a lot.

In all her years, she had never seen so many nature spirits.

"I heard you're planning to join forces with the goblin kingdom to wipe them out?"

"My lord, please calm your anger. This has nothing to do with me. This is the chieftain's revenge against those nature spirits. The goblin kingdom has also completed the assembly of its army, and is just waiting for those nature spirits to appear tomorrow so that we can annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

"How dare you!"

The Elf Elder immediately roared in anger.

However, she quickly calmed down and continued to inquire about the coalition's encirclement and suppression plan.

In order to survive, the lizardman warrior spoke frankly and without reservation.

After revealing all the information it knew, it immediately begged for mercy, saying, "Sir, you said you wouldn't kill me as long as I told the truth!"

"You are indeed very obedient, but I never said I wouldn't kill you..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the man-eating flower swallowed the lizardman warrior whole.

After clearing the battlefield, the Elf Elder quickly returned to the camp.

As for those man-eating monster flowers, she transformed them back into seed form and stored them in her spatial equipment.

This perfect control over magical plants is something even natural spirits don't possess.
