Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree

Chapter 244: Chapter 238: We’ve Been Strengthened Again!

The area of Black Dragon Castle was not large.

In fact, even after the players expanded it, the entire castle was less than forty thousand square meters, and the length of the walls was just about nine hundred meters.

The six thousand players defending the castle stood crowded on the walls.

In actuality, it was precisely the players’ overcrowding that allowed the Half-Beast’s spears and arrows to cause considerable harm to them.

Upon discovering this issue, the players hurriedly changed their strategy. Under the calls of Li Mu and Transforming Ji Gang, they dispersed some of the troops, allowing the wounded to retreat, rotate, rest, and defend the walls in phases.

At the start of the siege, the players lacked experience and were somewhat flustered, so they were suppressed by the Half-Beast’s spear throwers and archers.

Meanwhile, the Half-Beast Army advanced steadily into the rain of arrows from the players.

The vanguard of the ten-thousand-strong force drew closer and closer to the castle walls.

But within the army, the Lionheart King Imsh, who was commanding, did not look pleased.

Because… there were simply too many elves.

He saw very clearly the first wave of arrows; the number of arrows likely reached a thousand!

That is to say… there were at least a thousand Elf Archers on the walls!

And not all elves were archers, so the actual number of elves defending was even higher.

Additionally, the Half-Beast did not surround the castle on all sides.

They only attacked from the southern side, not yet completing the encirclement.

That means… the other side of the wall may also have the same number of elven defenders!

By rough estimation, the Lionheart King Imsh realized there might be at least three thousand elves defending the castle!

If that were the only issue, it would be tolerable.
