Under the roaring flames, the Undead Army retreated without accomplishing anything.
The lava that erupted from the Sacred Flame Peak covered the entire valley in the next few days. From afar, one could only see a large patch of scarlet lava that resembled hotpot soup.
Facing such an existence, the Undead Army had no choice but to retreat.
Although they could fly over with their aerial troops, aerial troops were the minority among the Undead Army, after all. If they lost the advantage of their ground troops, it would be meaningless no matter how powerful their aerial troops were.
It was just like how the United States bombed the Middle East many times and none of them died.
However, the Elves paid a painful price for this.
Apart from Wickonia who was rescued by Jenny, the rest of the Elves stationed at the defensive line were devoured by the lava and vanished without a trace.
These Elves weren't ordinary soldiers, but elite warriors of the Elves.
The reproduction rate of the Elves was low to begin with and it wasn't easy for them to reach adulthood.
Of course, not everyone was able to become strong after reaching adulthood.
In other words, almost all the capital that the elves had accumulated after the Second World War had been lost.
It could be said that the Elves were only left with a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled people.
Based on this point alone, it could be seen how much the Elves had sacrificed this time.
Not only that, but Wickonia, the future flower of the Forest Goddess, was also gravely injured in this incident.
At that time, the Goddess of the Forest's Divine Might had descended directly on Vikonia's body, but the Divine Might had been forcefully interrupted by Klein.
Not only did the Forest Goddess suffer a huge blow, but Wickonia also suffered a huge impact.
One had to know that this was an attack that even the True Gods had no choice but to retreat from. Although Viconia was a Holy Son, he was still a mortal. How could he possibly withstand this attack?
Although the Elf Queen had rescued her, she seemed to be a little deranged after that … Jenny expressed that it really had nothing to do with the demonic mark that she had released.
The Demons' Mark would only distort one's thoughts and wouldn't turn one into a lunatic.
For Wickonia to behave like this, it could only be attributed to her lack of mental strength. So … Jenny wasn't going to take the blame.
Under such circumstances, they couldn't stay in the Elf Forest any longer.
After Pattilina blasted open the Sacred Fire Peak, it had completely turned into a fiery hell.
It wasn't just the areas eroded by the lava.
Even the surrounding trees had withered due to the high temperature, and the animals had also left the area.
Fortunately, Aili had promised in the name of the Holy Church that she was willing to help the elves relocate to a more suitable place to live.
This was also the only choice the Elves could make.
"This is the result of the battle, Lord Saint."
After finishing her report, Ally let out an exhausted sigh.
Looking at the young girl standing in front of her, Saint Nora nodded with a pained expression on her face.
"I've heard about the specifics more than once, but I'm still deeply shocked to hear it from you.
The elves have sacrificed a lot for the Klein Continent, so we naturally have to repay them.
This continent belongs to all of us. It was not easy for them to make this decision.
We can't let the elves who have made such a huge sacrifice suffer again! "
Nola couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Although what he said to Ailey was also the truth.
However, this Saint's heart was extremely heavy.
In fact, Nora didn't wish for the elves to suffer such heavy losses so quickly.
After all, the Elven Warriors had rich combat experience. It would be good if half of them could survive.
However, according to Ailey's report, two-thirds of the elven elite army had been lost in that battle. As a result, the remaining strength of the elves could only protect themselves.
Under such circumstances, it would be impossible to unite the elves to fight against evil in the future …
When Saint Nora thought about the danger the Klein Continent was facing, she was deeply worried.
He had experienced suffering time and time again, and saved the world from the brink of destruction more than once.
But this time, he felt that the situation was a little unusual.
No matter if it was the prophecy brought by his old friend or the series of failures — Although the alliance led by Ellie managed to stop the Undead Army at the final juncture, the Undead Army wasn't able to stop them.
But they also paid a huge, painful price.
After the two battles at the Chaos Coast and Elf Forest, the Church of Holy Church was left with less than three-fifths of their forces.
If they were to face similar troubles again, perhaps they would be able to protect themselves. However, they wouldn't be able to continue rescuing the other forces.
This also meant that the Church of Holy Church would have to shrink their territory in the future. But …
The situation was worse than that.
There were some things that Nora didn't tell Ailey and Ailey wasn't clear about it either.
In fact, the entire Klein Continent had been in a state of turmoil recently.
Due to the continuous wars that happened between countries, civil wars, and the battle against the Undead Army, all sorts of wars never stopped.
All kinds of wars never stopped. This also caused the production of many areas in the Klein continent to come to a standstill due to the chaos of war.
This was where the problem arose. As the Klein Continent's transportation system was lagging behind, especially the Church of Holy Church's transportation system which was still based on horse carriages, the prices of goods skyrocketed due to the lack of transportation of goods in many regions.
The public security of society had been declining and all sorts of evil cults took the opportunity to stir up trouble everywhere.
The members of the Doomsday Church were in high spirits as they went around capturing people to spread their apocalyptic theories. If not, they would attract many poor people who were living in difficult circumstances to become believers and even caused a certain degree of panic.
Because not only did the cults declare that the world was about to be destroyed, but they also revealed that the clergies and Mages knew about it and were prepared to leave this world when it was destroyed and live elsewhere!
The moment these words were said, all sorts of "bystanders" who didn't know the truth naturally erupted in an uproar. The Holy Church had to accept thousands of worshippers every day who desired to join them. In fact, there were even some rulers who asked others to beat around the bush to ask if this was really the case, and if it was really the case, would it be convenient for them to join …
It wasn't just the clergies. The Mages weren't any better.
Although the Mages were famous and ordinary people didn't dare to provoke them, a cornered dog would do something desperate.
However, even a cornered dog would jump over a wall. In order to avoid the destruction of the world, some people chose to go to the Mage Association to learn from their masters, or simply relied on their numbers to charge in and beg the mages to spare their lives.
Facing such a chaotic situation, the Church of Holy Church and the Mage Association felt as if they had f * cked POI. It was simply indescribable.
They repeatedly claimed that there wasn't such a thing and that the world wouldn't be destroyed because of this. However, the people didn't listen and this gave the clergies a huge headache.
Currently, people from all over the world were begging Saint Nora, hoping that he could personally solve this problem.
What made Nora not know whether to laugh or cry was that there were actually some archbishops who came to investigate and see if there was really such a thing …
Facing such a situation, Nora was completely speechless. He didn't know what to say either.
The cultists' ability to bewitch people was indeed strong. In this situation, even if he was a Saint, not many people would believe his words.
This was how the human heart was. It would always accept the explanation that it hoped for. If not, why would the rumors of the end of the world spread so quickly? Wasn't it all because of the continuous years of war?
If it weren't for the continuous wars and heavy casualties on this continent, why would the people believe in the rumors of the end of the world?
Not to mention, even Nora himself couldn't be sure if it was just a rumor.
After all, the dark forces this time were rarely seen.
According to Allie's report, the dark forces even directly cut off the Goddess of Forest's Divine Might.
There were Demons with such powerful strength, but there were only a handful of them in the main plane who could exert such power … Not to mention the Black Dragon. Although according to the reports, the Black Dragon seemed to be very calm these days and the horde of Black Dragons didn't seem to have any intention of expanding, Nora couldn't let his guard down.
However, he couldn't let his guard down. The Black Dragons were an evil race. Moreover, they had suddenly appeared at this time. It was hard to tell what they were here for.
If the Undead Creatures and Black Dragons were to join forces, it would be another huge problem for this continent.
Nora let out a sigh at this thought. Then, he adjusted his emotions and gazed at Allie.
"You've worked hard, my child … By the way, I heard from you that a Elf Ranger named Jenny played a huge role in this battle?"
"Yes, Sir Saint. Although I haven't spent much time with her, I've learned a lot from her nimble thoughts and thoughts.
In fact, she was the one who suggested this plan. "
"Oh … I see."
Hearing Ailey's answer, Nora narrowed her eyes and nodded.
"It seems like she's an interesting young lady. I wonder if I can meet her?"
"This … Sir Saint, I'm sorry. In order to protect the Elf race, she has left."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Nora was taken aback.
"Left?"
