"So, this is the Dark Elf?" Laing sighed.
It was simply …
"What's going on, Laing?" Morgiana still hadn't figured out what was going on. Seeing Laing's dejected and defeated appearance, she instinctively felt displeased. "What's that Dark Elf doing? How did you become like this?"
"Damn it." Laing smiled bitterly. "I almost walked into the abyss just now. She did it on purpose."
"On purpose? Laing, what are you talking about? " Morgiana still didn't understand, but the Lake Goddess immediately saw that Laing was very tired. "Olica used up all of your power? Why did you let her take it without limit? "
"If she didn't completely let go, she might not be a match for her. But once she completely let go, Olica would easily lose control." Laing shook his head with a bitter smile. "Probably, this is why most rulers would rather have loyal but incompetent people than capable but difficult to control."
"I don't understand what you mean …" Morgiana looked at Laing's very weak appearance. The Lake Goddess' face was full of distress. "Okay, quickly lie down. Although I don't quite understand what happened between you and that Dark Elf, she obviously ran away after exhausting your power. In that case, let me take care of you during this time."
The more you take care of me, the weaker I will become. Laing complained in his heart, but the Sun King could only lie down and then ask Morgiana to call Suria.
Morgiana didn't suspect anything. The Lake Goddess helped Laing lie down and carefully took out a towel to wipe his sweat before leaving.
In the empty training room, only a sigh could be heard.
After a while, Suria came. "What's wrong, Laing? I couldn't find Sylvia. When I sent people to look for her, they found that she was locked up in the wine cellar under the castle. "
Laing sighed. The Sun King told Suria and Morgiana a series of things that had happened.
"What?" Suria was shocked. Knight King immediately said, "You mean, Olica, she …"
"That bitch, she actually wanted to kill you? You lent all your power to her, and she actually wanted to kill you? " Morgiana was even more furious. The Lake Goddess immediately stood up and angrily picked up her potion holy grail. "Well, let's see how I'll deal with her!"
"Don't go, Morgiana. They have too many people. Olica is now the highest god in the Underworld, the new Pale Queen. If you go find trouble with her, you will probably be caught by her, brainwashed, and hypnotized. In the end, it's very likely that your self-consciousness will be washed away and you will become her slave." Laing slowly shook his head and stretched out a hand to Morgiana.
Morgiana stomped her feet unwillingly. The Lake Goddess could only put down the holy grail and stretched out her hands to hold Laing's hand. "I can't believe Olica is such a despicable person. After getting so much from you, she actually wants to kill you. Let's just pretend that we don't know her from now on. Laing, rest well. Madam Suria and I will accompany you."
Suria looked at Laing worriedly. Knight King was wearing a dreamy snow angel high-slit dress today, paired with seamless black glossy silk stockings and a pair of bright red pearl heels. Knight King glanced at Morgiana. Seeing that she still hadn't moved, she simply took off her shoes and climbed onto the bed, letting Laing lean on her majestic chest.
"Laing, I believe that Olica isn't that kind of person," Suria said seriously. "Why would she kill you? She has followed you for more than twenty years, and she is also a maid recognized by Lord Foster Father. According to you, she was able to become the new Pale Queen because of Master's help. If she kills you, what benefits will she get? What will she gain? Will she be able to escape the pursuit of Uncle Anglo, Uncle Fogen, and Uncle Ruth (Suria basically follows Devonshire's way of calling them now)? "
"I know Olica. She won't do something that doesn't benefit her." Suria concluded and shook her head. The female knight adjusted her position on the bed and let Laing enjoy her lap pillow. "She is a dark elf, am I right? My dear. "
"It's hard to say. Dark elves are cruel, domineering, and advocate violence and force." The Lake Goddess Witch Morgiana was jealous that Suria had taken her place, but she was still very convinced by Suria. So, the Lake Goddess Witch seized the opportunity to interject. "It's not impossible."
"Yes." Laing nodded slightly. The Sun King sighed softly. "Olica said that she would kill me, but I know that no matter what I do, she definitely won't kill me. She said this to me for another purpose."
"What purpose?" Morgiana was curious.
"Olica actually came to talk to me about breaking up." Laing closed his eyes.
What?!
Suria and Morgiana both widened their eyes.
Olica wanted to break up with Laing?!
"How can this be?!" Suria was in disbelief. The Knight King said anxiously, "This doesn't make sense, Laing. Even if all this was planned by Olica, why would she want to break up with you?"
Laing sighed softly.
Why did Olica suddenly use the method of "drinking medicine" and "threatening" to tell Ryan that she intended to kill him after successfully killing and devouring the Pale Queen?
There were several layers to this.
"First of all, the first level. With such powerful weapons, killing intent will naturally arise. Olica successfully obtained the Pale Queen's Divine Position, Divine Concept, and Divine Concept. She's now the highest-ranked Goddess in the world of Hell. Now that she has such tremendous power and an army, Olica will immediately develop a certain instinct." Laing sighed. "She will want to try her own power. She can't help but want to show her authority. She has a feeling that she is independent and doesn't need to rely on me anymore. This is the first layer."
"Indeed, once any bureaucrat takes office or gets promoted, their instinct is to explore the boundaries of their power and show their authority." Suria expressed her understanding. "But …"
"Let me finish." Laing stretched out his hand and gestured for them to listen to him first. "Then, Olica enjoyed the wonderful feeling of being inferior to her superior. This made her feel very wonderful, so she can't help but want to try again."
"…" Suria and Morgiana did not speak.
Laing finished his words.
The third level was Olica's hint from the very beginning. She had said "I've already arranged things for her master" and "There's no need to keep something that's useless." This was a test that was very much in line with the nature of dark elves. Her test was to see if Leon still believed that he was qualified to continue being her master.
So at that time, Laing was shocked. Moreover, due to the severe loss of power, his mind was muddled and he could not calm down to think. However, Laing knew that in the situation at that time, if Laing immediately begged for mercy and admitted defeat, he was obviously not qualified to continue being Olica's master.
And if Ryan had been stubborn and courageous back then, fighting against the strong as the weak, trying to strike a rock with an egg, or something along the lines of "criticizing the Dark Elves for not talking about martial ethics", then he obviously wouldn't have been fit to continue being Olica's master. Perhaps his so-called "unyielding might" might have been able to move a knight like Sulia, but it would have been absolutely useless against the Dark Elves.
At that time, in a hurry, Laing could only use "I don't want to drink now" and "You succeeded?" As an answer, which meant "I really can't fight against you in this situation" and "Your power comes from me."
He dragged it out first because he needed time to think.
Then, Laing expressed his disappointment. He was disappointed that Olica burned the bridge after crossing the river. He was disappointed in his own decision. Sure enough, this made Olica somewhat hesitant. After all, she still had deep feelings for Laing. In addition to other factors, the new Pale Queen began to reconsider her decision.
After that, Olica told Laing the truth. The meaning of these words was to take back the initiative from Laing's mouth. Olica intended to tell Laing that although he was indeed very good to her and she loved him very much, the nature of their relationship was still to use each other. She very frankly admitted that her original purpose was to use Laing from the beginning. If they broke up, they would continue to be allies, but they would no longer be lovers.
When Laing saw that the topic was completely changed, he could only hurriedly slap the bed and shout, "Someone, someone, come!" to forcefully interrupt Olica's rhythm. Otherwise, if he continued to follow the dark elf's words, Olica's arrogance would erupt, and it would be difficult for him to deal with it in his weakened state. For thousands of years, the dark elves had been influenced by the crazy thinking of the Blood Hand God Cain. Most of the time, they would not consider the consequences of their emotions and would only follow their feelings.
Olica's arrogance that was about to erupt was interrupted. Then, the fourth meaning was revealed. Olica hinted to Laing: I don't like to share a man with Lilith. I'm also a goddess now.
I don't care if you have other sows. I can only be a goddess.
This time, Laing, who was in a daze, finally understood. Olica was here to talk about breaking up.
He said sarcastically, "Thank you for not killing me."
If you want to break up, then break up. There's no need to test me! Anyway, you have the initiative, not me.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Olica, who felt a stab of pain in her heart, calmed down again.
Did Laing really need to thank Olica? No, obviously not. On the contrary, the person who needed to be thanked the most was Olica herself.
In this way, Olica's feelings for Laing once again occupied the high ground of her thinking. After the highest goddess of the underworld and the new Pale Queen thought for a while, she finally made a decision. She told Laing, "It's better not to break up." "Don't think too much. I was confused for a moment. I will always be your dark elf maid."
This was the fifth level.
Since then, Ryan Macado, the gray knight's gene prototype, and the new Pale Queen, Orica Disclentia, had been testing each other's language. Only then did the curtains come to an end.
After the long "reading comprehension" and "thesis defense," Laing and Olica's one-sided power and status rapidly changed. Using this as a foundation, they re-established a stable and strong relationship.
Olica finally decided to recognize Laing as her master, even if she was different from the past, even if she was already the highest goddess of the underworld.
So, after saying all this, Laing, who had finally passed the test, was sweating all over.
This was the dark elf.
They were good at using euphemism to explain their reasons and were happy to control the other party's feelings so that the final outcome of the conversation would be more favorable to them. Their silver bell-like tongues were enough to heal the previous wounds, and their light words were enough to make up for all the previous losses and sacrifices.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Olica was even more dangerous than Lilith. She was more difficult to deal with.
Laing was sure that if the legacy of Mageweath Macado had not played a sufficient role in his mind, today's question and answer session would have shown that his relationship with Olica would have changed dramatically after the Dark Elves became gods. Even if they did not break up, they would never be able to return to the previous relationship of master and servant and lover.
If he got angry, or if he was slightly shocked by the truth revealed by Olica, or if he tried his best to put on airs and kept saying, "I am the Sun King," "I am the incarnation of the knight's virtue," or "I am the original body," this negotiation would only end in failure.
It did not matter if he did not understand. Laing would personally explain it to Suria and Morgiana because this level of "encrypted dialogue" would only exist in the countless conspiracies of the Elf Court and the tests between the lords of the Supreme Lord Council of Holy Tara.
"Laing, are you really a human?" Morgiana was dizzy, and the Lake Goddess witch could not help but shake her head. "Even the most profound and darkest palace conspiracy I have ever seen is not to the extent of guessing as you and Olica."
"My dear, I don't mean to criticize you, but how did you choose your own maid? The Kurfürst is also your maid, and the Dark Elf Goddess is also your maid! " Sulia's political riddles and wisdom were naturally not comparable to Morgiana's. She had already figured it out. The Knight Queen was so angry that she put her hands on her hips. Her face was not looking good. She was both concerned and reproachful. "Look at you, you almost got into big trouble. The Lady had warned you a long time ago, but you didn't listen!"
"You have to have confidence in me, Suria." Leon sighed again. The Sun King was indeed very tired. "Sometimes, when faced with a problem, there are ten solutions, nine normal solutions, and one optimal solution. However, due to various conditions, I may not be able to choose the optimal solution immediately. Perhaps only my brother, the Shepherd Wolf God Horus, could do that. All I could do was to solve the problem as quickly as possible, no matter if it was the normal solution or the optimal solution. At that time, I really couldn't think too much. In the face of anything, I can't force myself to choose the optimal solution every time."
Suria and Morgiana both smiled. Yes, Laing was also a mortal after all. He could not be held to the perfect standard of a saint every time. Even his brother, Fulgen, could not do it.
"Will Olica be able to help us in the upcoming war?" Suria felt sorry for Laing, who was very weak. She no longer criticized her husband's decision, but asked him about the consequences of his decision.
"She definitely will, but it will take some time." Laing nodded. "She needs time to recover and gather the believers of the Pale Queen. She needs time to gather and train the Pale Queen's army of the Underworld."
"But we don't have time." Suria was a little anxious. "Laing, Laun sent a message from the frontline."
"Even if we have the support of the Empire's army of Auster and the army of Austermark, our northern army can barely hold on. When the next wave of Chaos strikes, Prague will fall."
"Pass the order. Tell Laing to hold on for at least a few more months, until this winter." Laing said in a deep voice. "Also, inform Marshal Kalad and Marshal Rokossovsky to start organizing the army. After the autumn harvest, immediately depart for Örengrád and go through the dark river to Lone Dragon City. Inform the Norsk Dwarf King, Thorgaard Crimson."
"You are …" Suria's eyes lit up.
"Prepare for the evacuation plan."
"The codename of this operation is Steam Engine."
… I am the dividing line of the Steam Engine operation …
At the same time, in the distant and cold Nagaros Continent.
The northern fortress of the dark elves had been destroyed. The heads of a total of 86000 dark elves elite border guards were piled up into a statue of terror that was even taller than the obsidian wall.
An army of Chaos that was more than a hundred kilometers long was led by the Bloody Queen, the Khorne Bride, and the Noska Valkyrie. As they went deeper into Nagaros, the army split into two groups. One group attacked the main temple of Cain and the city of executioners that was ruled by the Cain Bride Heliben — Hal Gansi.
The other group was led by the Khorne Bride herself. Their target was Nagarond, the capital of the dark elves, the City of the Witch King.
In the barren and desolate Nagaros Wasteland, a fast horse was galloping. Everywhere it passed, there were only rocks, streams, mountains, and snow.
Black walls, black gates, and black spires that were dozens of meters tall sat in the heart of the Nagaros Continent like a giant monster the size of a mountain. This was the pearl of the Witch King, the capital of the dark elves, Nagarond.
The Witch King was not here. The captain of the Black Guards, Kodan Blackhand, who stayed in Nagarond, received a very terrible news from a messenger.
"Our northern defense line has fallen! Almost all the defenders have been defeated or slaughtered! "
"At most, in five days, the Bloody Queen and her immeasurable army of Chaos will arrive at the city of Nagarond."
