Because they have wings on their backs.
These are wing elves. Their wings are transparent, but in the sunlight, they show colorful colors and look very beautiful.
Compared to the night elf tribe, the number of winged elves is smaller, with only a few thousand in their entire clan.
They are responsible for the horizontal risk removal, that is, the northward risk removal.
As for Chenxi, Lomina and the others were responsible for the vertical direction, that is, the westward direction.
There are fewer dark creatures toward the north, while there are more dark creatures toward the west.
The further west you go, the thicker the dark matter becomes, and this dark matter even permeates the sky.
So much so that the elves had to place a sacred flame on the treetops to disperse the dark matter in the sky.
The pace of reclamation has slowed down a bit, but not too much.
While these 300,000 elves are cultivating, the progress of planting another 50,000 elves is not slow at all.
A large number of ancient trees have been planted, and under the magic of the elves, these ancient trees grow very quickly.
They will be the first line of defense for the Holy Flame Elves.
Magical plants were also planted, and the entire Holy Flame Forest began to develop towards the ideal home of the elves.
However, after another week, Chen Xi and Lomina both discovered something unusual.
A large number of certain dark creatures began to gather in the dark forest.
The dark creatures that gathered before were all of various kinds and not very strong.
But now, there are more and more skeleton monsters that look like they only have bones and no flesh on their bodies.
These skeleton monsters are also afraid of the Holy Light, but under the illumination of the Holy Light, they escape very quickly.
Moreover, they were exposed to the holy light for a second or two and suffered very little damage.
The elves in the dark forest often hear the strange sounds of these skeleton monsters.
It sounded like a weird cry from the throat.
"Maggie, send all your fourth-level wing elves and above."
Chen Xi contacted Maggie, the leader of the wing elves, through the special means of the elves in the forest.
Soon, hundreds of wing elves flew over.
Under Chen Xi's arrangement, these hundreds of winged elves began to use the holy flame to "bomb" the dark forest on a large scale in front of the reclamation elves, driving away the skeleton monsters.
These skeleton monsters can persist for a second or two under the illumination of the holy light. If the skeleton monsters are stronger, they may last longer and pose a certain threat to the elves who are reclaiming the land.
Therefore, it is necessary to "bomb" in advance and eliminate risks.
"Mother, the number of skeleton monsters is increasing. There may be their nests ahead. Let's split up and take a look ahead."
Chenxi contacted Lomina.
"good!"
Lomina was almost dozens of kilometers away from the morning light, heading towards the depths of the dark forest.
Looking from the sky, there is nothing in the dark forest except for being a little darker.
But as long as Chenxi throws down a holy flame, it can cause the inside to explode.
As the morning light flew, it kept throwing the holy flame down.
In this way, Chen Xi can observe the density of these skeleton monsters.
Skeleton monsters do become more dense the further west they go.
When the morning light flew dozens of kilometers away and she threw a holy flame down again, she noticed something unusual.
When the holy flame exploded in the dark forest, Chen Xi clearly saw that a particularly large skeleton monster did not run away, but stood there, looking up at Chen Xi for a few seconds before suddenly Plunged headlong into the darkness!
Of course, its body was still blistered by the holy light.
The thin layer of skin on the bones seemed to be boiling.
This skeleton monster instantly caught Chen Xi's attention.
This must be a powerful skeleton monster.
Chen Xi chased it in the direction of its escape, taking out the holy flame and blasting it from time to time.
Chen Xi did not rush into the dark forest alone. Before the dark matter in the dark forest was dispelled, many magics could not be used, and the vision inside was also very poor. The skeleton monster was too fast and entered the dark forest. You may not be able to catch up.
Otherwise, why is the dark forest a forest area of life
"Mother, I encountered a powerful skeleton monster here."
Chen Xi chased and contacted Lomina.
"I also encountered a skeleton monster that was probably at least the eighth level."
Lomina replied immediately.
Chapter 0216 Crazy Skeleton Monster! Legendary skeleton monster!
Over the dark forest, Chen Xi and Lomina each chased a skeleton monster.
Through mutual contact, Chenxi and Lomina soon discovered that the two skeleton monsters were heading in the same direction.
"That could be their nest."
Dawn speculated.
"Well, it's indeed possible. If we can find their nest, we can catch them all."
Lomina also had the same speculation.
This is also the reason why Lomina did not take action to kill the skeleton monster below.
If we can find the skeleton monster's lair and catch them all, the danger of reclaiming the dark forest will be greatly reduced.
Now they had gone hundreds of kilometers deep into the dark forest. After chasing for a while, Lomina had a bad feeling for no reason.
The two skeleton monsters seemed to be escaping in the same direction, but if calculated based on the angle, they should have already merged.
But now, they are far from converging.
"Chen Xi, you go back first, just in case they have any conspiracy, I can just chase them by myself."
Lomina said.
After Lomina's reminder, Chen Xi felt a little chilled in her heart, turned around and flew back.
Lomina soon knew that her instinct was correct.
Because when Chen Xi just turned around, a large number of skeleton monsters suddenly appeared in front of the elves responsible for the reclamation!
"Skeleton monster!"
An elf quickly reminded loudly. She squeezed the holy flame in her hand, and the light from the holy flame instantly became twenty times stronger, roasting the fastest skeleton monster directly into ashes.
The skeleton monster behind was also screamed by the holy light.
The reaction speed of the elves is quite fast.
There are 300,000 elves, and there are 150,000 elves who are cultivating the depths. These 150,000 elves are divided into several rows, stretching the reclamation front into a fifty-kilometer-long front.
There are an average of three thousand elves per kilometer.
The density of the elves is not low. The reason for such a high density is because the holy flame must be hung on the tree now, and this is also for safety reasons.
When the skeleton monsters launched a large-scale attack, a large number of elves in this fifty-kilometer-long reclamation front exploded the holy flame almost simultaneously, and a holy light front appeared in the entire dark forest!
At this moment, countless skeleton monsters were killed directly after being illuminated by the holy light.
But the skeleton monster has been planning for this attack for who knows how long.
As soon as the holy light of the holy flame explosion dissipated, a large number of dark creatures, driven by the skeleton monster, swarmed up one after another.
These dark creatures couldn't withstand the ordinary holy flames, but their momentum was too strong. Many fast dark substances used their bodies to extinguish the holy flames on the trees.
Immediately afterwards, more skeleton monsters appeared and began to use long-range means to attack the elves.
A large number of pitch-black bone arrows were shot out by them.
"careful!"
The elves did not carry shields, but their strength and fighting qualities were not low. Some elves continued to use holy flames to build defense lines and used trees to avoid bone arrows. Others used magic plants and magic to create shields in a short time. Plenty of shields coming out.
More elves are fighting back with bows and arrows.
"When you pray, attach the holy flame to the arrow."
The night elves' counterattack on the defensive line was the best. They attached the holy flames they prayed to on arrows. After shooting the arrows, the holy flames exploded, killing dark creatures in pieces.
However, a large number of skeleton monsters still escaped with the help of trees.
This war between elves and skeleton monsters has become extremely fierce from the beginning.
There are too many skeleton monsters.
