Chapter 1050: Chapter 421 Unify the Mainland_2
Whether it was Zhou Tian or the Dark Elf boss, both were clear about the situation; however, the Dark Elf boss knew she was already caught in a deadly trap and had no intention of living, so she could only persist in the fight. As for Zhou Tian, since persistence meant victory, he was too lazy to make any changes. freewebnovel.cσ๓
In the face of the Dark Elf boss’s attacks, Zhou Tian could be repelled time and again without his actions being affected in the least. He simply used his abilities to continuously block the opponent’s assaults. The process of advancing and being repelled repeated without any change in Zhou Tian, but as the fight went on, the side effects of the secret methods used by the Dark Elf boss began to manifest.
With her body breaking down, the Dark Elf boss’s strength was also affected and began to weaken. Attacks that Zhou Tian could only barely block before became easy for him to fend off. Judging by the situation, unless there was an accident, Zhou Tian estimated that the Dark Elf boss wouldn’t be able to hold out much longer.
Even after sensing the changes in the Dark Elf boss, Zhou Tian didn’t have any special response. He continued to fight indifferently, as if the decrease in the Dark Elf boss’s strength had no impact on their battle at all.
"Although I still want to persist, it seems there is no chance now." After a few more hours of exchanging blows, the Dark Elf boss, whose strength had grown increasingly weaker and could no longer withstand Zhou Tian’s attacks, eventually ceased fighting and stepped aside. After glancing at Zhou Tian, she turned to the Dark Elves who were watching from afar and ordered, "Since I have been defeated, our clan will merge into the Beastman Tribe. You all should surrender and submit to the Beast Emperor!" Having said that, the body of the Dark Elf boss suddenly cracked and then burst into a cloud of blood mist in mid-air.
"Such a pity." Zhou Tian did have a favorable impression of the Dark Elf boss, but he knew that even if he wanted to recruit her, it would be impossible. The Dark Elf boss would rather die by his hand than surrender to the forces of the Ancient Ruins Space; and likewise, he guessed that she would not want to submit to him either. Thus, the only thing left between Zhou Tian and her was battle, and regardless of his feelings towards her, not wanting to die, Zhou Tian had to kill her.
In the end, whatever tactics Zhou Tian employed, regardless of whether they were underhanded, after all was done, the Mainland at that moment had almost fallen into his hands.
Not everyone could stand against Zhou Tian. Originally, he was unable to annex the Mainland mainly because of two Emperor-level bosses. But now that Zhou Tian had removed those two Emperor-level bosses with schemes, there were no longer any monsters that could oppose him. Under these circumstances, when Zhou Tian ordered the occupation of the Mainland, there wasn’t even an opponent left, and it would have been strange if he couldn’t take control of the continent.
As for the Dwarf clan, they’re not worth mentioning. After Zhou Tian killed their boss, he also performed a corresponding purge on the monster clan. After his cleansing, there weren’t many of them left. Thus, the monster clan of the Dwarves naturally couldn’t become an obstacle to Zhou Tian’s conquest of the Mainland.
As for the Dark Elf clan, though they weren’t as decimated as the Dwarves and Zhou Tian hadn’t crippled them, their last statement by the Dark Elf boss and Zhou Tian’s own strength made it clear to them that they were powerless to oppose. So, without much hesitation, the Dark Elves chose to follow their deceased boss’s command and all merged into Zhou Tian’s force.
In this way, almost all the forces on the Mainland were either destroyed by Zhou Tian or annexed into his territory, and so, even though there were still some lands not completely under his control, Zhou Tian already had absolute rule over the continent.
Having annexed a continent, Zhou Tian’s territory expanded significantly. By now, even among Emperor-level bosses, his territories were considered rather large.
However, even after annexing the Mainland, though Zhou Tian had made considerable progress, if he wanted to drive the players out of this world, it would still be quite difficult.
Therefore, if Zhou Tian wanted to expel the players, he still needed to increase his strength further. If he couldn’t advance his power a bit more, it seemed unlikely he could drive the players away.
After annexing the Mainland, even though Zhou Tian’s power had increased, and he had gained many benefits, he still needed to keep improving his strength because it had not yet reached a sufficiently high level.
And just like before, Zhou Tian had no other choice but to take action on the Mainland he resided in. So, after taking control of the Mainland, if Zhou Tian wanted to continue expanding, he had no choice but to put effort in the same direction he never originally wanted to expand into.
