I, Asuna, don't want to travel around the world

Streams flow slowly.

Patches of forests are spread all over the land.

And all around is the vast grassland.

On the edge of the cliff of the mountain, there is a waterfall pouring down, making the beautiful rainbow hang high in the sky, the scene is quite dreamy.

And in such a valley, on a circular platform, a white conference table was placed here at some point.

There are seven chairs on each side of the conference table.

On the middle chair of the seven chairs on the left and right sides, two beauties who were rarely seen even in ALO sat there. Others were the top leaders of the Wind Elves and Cat Demons, who were currently having what seemed to be a very intense conversation.

These people are the highest decision makers of both the wind elves and the cat demons.

The two parties who were in the heated discussion had no idea that at this moment, in the sky at a distance from them, fire elves wearing red metal armor were approaching at an extremely fast speed.

A solemn and murderous atmosphere permeates the air.

…………

At this time, the talks between the two sides seemed to have begun.

The wind elves and cat demons who came with the two lords were talking freely, trying to conclude this alliance while also trying to increase their own interests and benefits as much as possible, so they were constantly arguing with each other.

On the other hand, the two lords sitting in the middle did not speak a word and looked relaxed and contented.

Sitting in the middle of the wind elves was a woman who was tall for a female wind elf and had long straight hair that was almost black and had the ends of her hair neatly cut into a straight line. In addition to her extremely fair skin, she had slender eyes, a tall nose and thin lips, giving people a mature woman with a beauty as sharp as a knife.

She was wearing a Japanese-style long coat with folded front, and a very long sword on her waist. A pair of dark red high wooden clogs were dangling from her snow-white bare feet exposed from the hem of the coat. She was not only beautiful, but also full of Japanese style, making her unforgettable at first sight.

She is the lord of the wind elves. She can get about 80% of the votes in the monthly lord voting and has always been the lord of the player——Sakuya.

Sitting opposite Sakuya was a petite girl.

The girl looks quite young, but has golden wavy hair, a pair of large triangular ears sticking out from both sides of her head, and she is wearing a combat suit similar to a one-piece swimsuit, boldly exposing her wheat-colored skin. Both sides of her waist are equipped with grappling weapons with three protruding claws, and extending from the hips of the combat suit is a long patterned tail.

Although she looks a little childish, according to ALO ​​standards, this girl is just as beautiful as Sakuya. Unlike the sexy and mature Sakuya, she takes the cute and innocent route.

She is the lord of the cat demons. Like Sakuya, she possesses overwhelming popularity, thus maintaining her long-term regime. She is a player who has sat on the lord's throne for quite some time - Arisa Lu.

The lords of the two races are both rare beauties. In a gaming world where there is already a lack of female players, it is easy to imagine how many people will like them with such appearances.

It is precisely because of this that the two of them can gain huge popularity and overwhelming support in their respective territories, and can get many votes every month to maintain their position as lord.

Of course, these two are no mere vases, not only do they manage their territories in an orderly manner, but their skills as players are also excellent. Even if they are entangled in government affairs, they are still masters who can rank among the top ten of their respective races. They are perfect beings with beauty, strength and brains.

067 The Interrupted Alliance

It is natural that these two lords could not be unfamiliar to each other as the wind elf and the cat demon were on good terms with each other.

Rather, it could be said that Sakuya and Arisa were actually good friends and had a very good relationship in private, which was why this alliance came about.

However, in terms of their positions, the two are still the lords of their respective races and need to consider the interests of their respective races first. So even if they have privately agreed to form an alliance and the conditions and content of the covenant have already been determined, for the sake of fairness, the two must still participate in the talks with the top leaders of their races in a proper occasion and let the people of their race speak out. Otherwise, concluding an alliance with other races without authorization will definitely make the players in the race dissatisfied.

In view of this, even if they have privately agreed to form an alliance, it is still necessary to go out for a while in order to avoid problems within the race.

For this reason, neither Sakuya nor Arisa spoke a word, but let the senior executives around them speak as much as they wanted.

What this resulted in was that one of them closed her eyes to rest, while the other one was playing with her nails, looking like they were in a superior position.

Although we don't know what kind of people they are in real life, at least in the game, they are lords that players of their respective races can trust.

until a certain moment.

"Okay, stop arguing."

Seeing that the time was almost right, Sakuya finally opened his eyes and spoke to stop the argument between the two sides.

"No matter what, the alliance between the two races is necessary. Even if we don't consider other issues, just talking about the evil deeds of the fire elves, in order to capture the World Tree, they have been blatantly hunting players from our two races. If we don't unite and fight against the fire elves, then, as the two races closest to the fire elves' territory, both of us will become devastated by the fire elves' attack."

Sakuya said calmly something that could be figured out with a little thought.

Alyssa immediately nodded in agreement.

"That's right. If we allow the Fire Elves to continue to develop like this, let alone anything else, once they successfully capture the World Tree with the resources they stole from us and reincarnate as Light Elves, then from now on ALO will be dominated by the Fire Elves alone, and it will be difficult for us to get ahead."

Alisa's words silenced the leaders of both the wind elves and cat demons.

Obviously, both parties knew that this was not a joke, and with the temperament of the fire elves, they could really do such a thing.

Therefore, it can be said that it is imperative for the two sides to conclude an alliance.

But what the content of the covenant is is a bit intriguing.

"We have no objection to the wind elves and cat demons forming an alliance."

The high-level players began to speak.

"But are our allies limited to fighting against the fire elves?"

"That would only be a check on the fire spirits, and would not bring any substantial benefits to either of us."

They started a new round of discussion again.

"Since we are going to form an alliance, we should work towards a greater goal."

"Yes, for example, in the strategy of conquering the World Tree, the two races can help each other and benefit each other."

"Yes, this is the long-term solution."

"After all, we have all tried to conquer the World Tree, but we all failed in the end."

"In this case, for the sake of the future, I think it is necessary for the two tribes to join forces to attack together."

"That's it."

The two camps quickly reached an agreement.

Little did they know that Sakuya and Alisa had been waiting for this step to happen.

The two had also already decided that they would form an alliance, not only to work together to check and balance the fire elves, but also to work together to conquer the world tree.

However, even so, some problems will still arise.

Just like...

"Is the premise of conquering the World Tree together possible?"

A wind elf player raised this question.

“I find it difficult, too.”

A cat demon followed suit.

After hearing what they said, the other players looked at each other and frowned.

The reason is simple, because this contradicts the strategy itself.

Because no one knows whether all races can be reincarnated as elves of light after reaching the top of the World Tree.

It would be great if every race that reached the top of the World Tree could be reincarnated. But if only one race could be reincarnated, what should we do then?

Don't forget, this is a world that encourages races to kill each other!

In this case, if several different races attacked the World Tree at the same time, there was a high possibility that only one of them would be able to successfully reincarnate as a light elf.

Faced with this situation, no one wants to give up such an opportunity, and cooperation becomes empty talk.

However, Sakuya and Alisa had already discussed this issue.

"How about this." Sakuya thought over the words he had prepared in advance and said, "It would be best if both parties could be reincarnated as light elves, but if only one side succeeds, the successful side will help the other side in the next attack. How about this?"

"That's good." Alyssa immediately clapped her hands in agreement. "Even if only one race successfully reincarnates as light elves in the end, once another race reincarnates, this quest will disappear. But this game can't end like this. After the World Tree is successfully conquered, a new final conquest quest will surely be opened up for players to complete. At that time, the successful party will help the other party conquer this quest."

Hearing this, the wind elves and cat demons pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"It can only be the."

"It seems that this is the only way now."

"That's right, that's right."

"That's good."

"We have no objection."

Those players who were just there for the show all expressed their agreement.

Otherwise, is there anything else they need to discuss in this meeting?

Their own lord has said everything there is to say, so why are they here?

I have to say a few words to increase my presence.

Otherwise, why would they come here, for sightseeing?

Or was he just a witness to the alliance? A minor character remembered by the players?

Then isn't it too worthless for a senior executive like me?

On the other side, Sakuya and Alyssa looked at each other and smiled secretly in their hearts.

"Then, from now on, we, the wind elves and cat demons, will..."

Sakuya stood up, ready to formally announce the success of the alliance.

However, just then!

"not good!"

Alyssa’s ears moved slightly, and then her expression changed and she stood up.

"A group of players is coming!"

068 The Invasion of Fire Spirits

With just one sentence, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Among the nine races, cat demons, in addition to being able to tame monsters and raise pets, also have obvious advantages in vision and hearing.

Although the cat demon has a correction in agility, it is still far behind the wind elf. Therefore, its five senses are more acute than the wind elf. When attacking without using magic, the cat demon's vision and hearing are often relied upon by other players to detect the enemy's movements and the appearance of the terrain.

As the leader of the cat demon clan, although Alyssa is not the strongest player among the cat demons, for her own safety as a leader, Alyssa specially strengthened her five senses so that she can be ahead of anyone else and be the first to discover something strange so that she can respond at any time.

And now, Alyssa clearly heard that a large number of players were flying towards this side.

“Enemy, enemy attack…!?”

"How can it be……!?"

"This meeting was obviously held in secret!"

"How could it be exposed so easily!?"

The wind elves and cat demons present all started to panic.

Even Sakuya's expression stiffened.

She drew the large sword from her waist and whispered to Arisa beside her:

"Are you sure you're a player, Lu?"

Hearing Sakuya's question, Arisa laughed bitterly: "If you're not a player, then you're a monster? Don't fool yourself, Sakuya."

Alisa's words made Sakuya smile bitterly.

The reason why Alyssa said this is because there are no training ground-type monsters here.

After entering the Butterfly Valley, you will reach the central independent area where the World Tree is located. Therefore, there are no training ground-type monsters in this neutral area called Arun Plateau.

It is for this reason that the venue for the talks was chosen here.

And since the person coming is not a monster, then it can only be a player, right?

Then, if even Alyssa claimed to be a group of players, it was conceivable that the number of opponents must be quite large.

With so many players coming this way, Sakuya didn't think they were coming to greet him or just passing by.

"This time we are in big trouble..."

Shuo Ye could only sigh. She didn't want to be the second wind elf lord to be killed.

Otherwise, not to mention the circle of wind elves, players of other races would be able to laugh for a long time just because of this.
