In the sky above their kingdom, brilliant green light with a rich aura of life was like a tidal wave. Wave after wave of green light crashed into the death sky, causing the death sky to be unable to advance any further. It was blocked in mid-air.
Below the intersection of the death sky and the green sea of light, countless elves were engaged in a bloody battle. Their opponents were the huge number of skeletons, skeleton archers, skeleton mages, and the death knights who were the rulers. Every death knight was a legitimate descendant of the Sun God. They had returned from the endless darkness more than a year ago, waking up on this familiar yet strange land.
The once prosperous empire had collapsed and had turned into the Nahrin Desert. What they could not bear was that the land that had not turned into a desert near the ocean of storms was actually occupied by despicable foreign tribes. Foreign tribes whose status was even lower than their former servants. They carried great anger and turned the anger of being betrayed by the Pope of the Sun God cult into a butcher's knife. They unceremoniously landed on the three countries on the Mannheim Coast.
However, it was clear that the first two opponents were as weak as they had expected, and were destroyed by them easily. Most of the time, they were waiting for the awakening of their own race. Every time one of them woke up, the Sky Veil of Death would become thicker. At this time, all of the Sun God's descendants had woken up and the Sky Veil of Death had reached its strongest state.
However, they were still blocked by the Elf Republic. This made the proud Sun God's descendants very angry. Under the Sky Veil of Death, the skeleton army was like a tidal wave that attacked the elven line of defense. Some of these skeletons were humans that they had once ruled over. Most of them were tall Jackalan skeletons and Lizardmen skeletons. Under the control of the death knights, they attacked the elves crazily.

Under normal circumstances, an elf could live for tens of thousands of years. However, in this world, there were two sides to everything. As an immortal race, the elves' long lifespan corresponded to their terrifyingly low fertility rate. Usually, a couple of elves would take thousands of years to give birth to a small elf. The population of the entire Elf Kingdom was extremely small, with a total population of just over 300,000.
The elves' archery was only average when it came to dealing with skeletons. Therefore, although the Elf Republic had more than ten trees of life that released the light of life to block the Sky Veil of Death released by the death knights, the elves themselves were unable to block the skeleton army from advancing.
The tree of life was very tall and majestic. Compared to ordinary trees, they were like elephants and ants. On each tree of life, an Elf City was built. The Elven Palace was built directly on the tallest tree of life.
At this moment, in the Elven Palace, the Elf Queen had gathered all the archons to discuss the countermeasures against the invading descendants of the Sun God. However, all the elves were extremely silent. It was obvious that the Elf Queen and the archons did not have any good solutions in the face of the onslaught of the skeleton soldiers.
"Your Majesty, I thought that the best way to deal with the skeletons is to use the cavalries to charge at them. If that isn't enough we can use the infantry to fight them head-on. The last resort, which is the most inferior method is to use archers to fight the enemy."

Another elf immediately said in a targeted manner, "Your Majesty, what Casper Brown Bear said is all nonsense. Our entire Elf Republic only has 500 cavalries, and they are archers. Furthermore, our elves' weak constitution is not suitable to become infantry. We are only good at archery and magic. I propose to gather all the elven mages and form an elven mage group to use magic to deal with the skeletons. This will be much more effective than archers shooting arrows."
The Elf Queen's eyes lit up when she heard the noble elf's words, then, her eyes dimmed. "Dear Arrod Brightmoon, your words are very reasonable, but we can not mobilize the mages to form an army to go to the front line. If not for all the mages working together to help the tree of life, the tree of life alone might not be able to deal with the enemy's Sky Veil of Death. If the enemy's Sky Veil of Death spreads over, the consequences will be unimaginable."
As soon as the Elf Queen spoke, the elven archon named Arrod Brightmoon said, "Your Majesty, you are the most thoughtful."
The elven archons knew that once the Sky Veil of Death attacked, the elves would not be able to resist the invasion of the Sky Veil of Death at all. They would be stripped of their flesh and turned into skeletons. Even though the skeleton army had the absolute advantage over the elven army, they could not advance any further because the light of life released by the tree of life was able to resist the Sky Veil of Death. If the skeletons dared to step into the range of the light of life, they would also feel as if they had suffered a terrible curse. They would become weak and could be easily killed by the elves.

The three kingdoms had almost divided the Mannheim Coast equally. From this point, it could be seen that the strength of the three kingdoms was not much different. The Kingdom of Grey Mane and the Kingdom of Lizardmen had been easily destroyed by the death legion. The fact that the Elf Republic could hold on meant that the targeted measures taken by them were pretty good. The reason why they were at a disadvantage was entirely due to the difference in the strength of the soldiers.
At this moment, an archon said, "Your Majesty, I once crossed the Nahrin Desert hundreds of years ago. On the other side of the Nahrin Desert, there are many powerful human countries. I think we can ask the human countries for help. I think it is possible to persuade the human countries to send their troops to help us."
The Elf Queen heard the archon's words and could not help but be interested. "Oh? Chris, is what you said true? Humans are a greedy and despicable race. How could they cross the Nahrin Desert, which is very dangerous, to support us?"
The archon named Chris said, "The humans are indeed greedy and despicable, but the humans are also very smart. If they knew how terrifying the Sky Veil of Death was, and if they knew that the person in charge of this terrifying Sky Veil of Death was a descendant of the Sun God who had been betrayed by them, they would realize that if our Elf Republic was destroyed, they would be the next to suffer. Therefore, I am confident that I can convince the human countries to send reinforcements."
