Laing thought about it carefully and felt that Tegris had it tough as Lilith's First Chosen One.
To be fair, did Lilith ever let Tegris down?
Not at all.
Lilith had done her best for Tegris. Not only had the goddess given her last epochal immortal treasure, Lilith's Moon Staff to Tegris, she had also appointed him as her First Chosen One in the mortal world. She had also given Tegris a portion of her powers to help him recover. However, Lilith had nothing to say to Tegris.
Just like how Lilith had nothing to say to Laing. She supported him unconditionally under any circumstances and gave him everything she could.
However, just like how Laing was often left speechless by the Lake Fairy's countless strange ideas and tricks, and only after she was punished by the Emperor himself, Tegris was also forced to listen to Lilith's endless novel ideas. After all, as Lilith's First Chosen One, Tegris was obviously the spokesperson and most trusted person of the Moon Goddess in the mortal world. Therefore, Tegris, as an Ultimate Wizard, was also being danced around by Lilith all day long.
For example, Tegris had come to the Old World three times in a dozen years. This might not be a big deal to humans, but to the elves, it was equivalent to three long trips in a very short period of time due to unimportant matters.
Therefore, Laing could understand Tegris' helplessness. When Gao Jing's phoenix ship docked at Fort Marlin, all the important people in Fort Marlin appeared, including the Emperor, the Knight King, everyone in Fort Marlin, and even the High Elves and Dwarves. Tegris was a person with great achievements in the Old World. This was something that no one could deny.
At the banquet, Laing found an opportunity to be alone with Tegris. As for Tegris coming again, Laing was a little embarrassed. "Sorry to trouble you."
"It's fine. Since it's Lilith's request, I have no objections." Tegris did not show his emotions on his face. His voice was extremely calm. "But you have to be mentally prepared. Ossouin is not a place that welcomes humans. Don't blame me for not warning you."
"I know." Laing sighed and looked at the hazy moonlight with Tegris. "I still need your cooperation this time."
"Where is Aralus?" Tegris, leaning on Lilith's Moon Staff, squinted his dead fish eyes and looked at the banquet. "Also, why is his daughter Karolina here? Is Lilith still planning to continue her New World Project?"
"Aralus … Uh, he made a mistake. Lilith sent him on an atonement expedition. Now he should be in the Dark Realm or the Dragon Archipelago." Laing said a little awkwardly, "You know that I can summon Chaos Demons, but Aralus doesn't know."
"It's normal. After all, he's a pure Warrior." Laing thought that Tegris would be surprised, but Tegris was still expressionless. The tall mage even poured a glass of high elf fruit wine and handed it to him. "Laing, you know that Lilith likes to walk in the mortal world, but for demons, it's tantamount to the most delicious food in front of them. So once she appears, the demons will immediately smell the sweet fragrance and come one after another."
"I'm here." Laing said with certainty. "My power can cover Lilith's tracks, and she can freely walk in the mortal world with my energy. Now, she can basically walk in the mortal world indefinitely … What has she been doing recently?"
"It can be seen that Aralus's defeat was not undeserved. If he has the potential to become a god, then you are a ready-made god." Tegris suddenly frowned. "As for me, I'm not too sure what Lilith has been doing recently. She seems to be preparing something in the depths of the Kingdom of Safry in the inner ring of Ossouin."
Laing thought about it and immediately understood why the Lake Fairy had not appeared for such a long time. Thinking that the appointed day happened to be the day of the Lake Fairy in late autumn, he changed the topic a little awkwardly. "Maybe she really doesn't have time."
Lilith and Assuyan represented the two extremes of the gods. The former was acting recklessly, and the latter was not acting.
Tegris looked at Laing's state thoughtfully. The tall mage vaguely understood something. He sighed softly in his heart, hoping that Lilith did not bet on the wrong person this time. "But I have to say that if Aralus does not come, our chances are lower, and you have to take that dark elf to Ossouin, which will increase the difficulty you face. Why do you plan to take that dark elf with you? Don't you know that this is a provocation? I'm not confident that I can persuade my brother to accept it. "
"Olica's identity is special." Laing noticed that Olica was hiding in the corner of the banquet. She was wearing a retro high elf afternoon garden princess dress, a white silk scarf, a full set of opal jewelry, and a Lilith Yang Fire amulet on her chest. Even though she was wearing the high elf's holy clothes and jewelry given by the Emperor, Olica's hot body and exquisite movements made her look very coquettish. Olica should have been the star of the banquet other than Suria, or attracted countless gentlemen to ask her to dance.
However, the dark elf just stood there, not far nor near, neither sad nor happy. Everyone around her, including humans, dwarves, and elves, did not notice her. Even the court wizards of Marienburg and Emperor Karl-franz, who was talking loudly, did not notice Olica's existence.
Seeing that her master was looking at her, Olica showed a sweet smile. She waved her hand and asked Laing if she wanted to go.
"This is the highest level divine spell, the Pale Queen's Shadow of the Underworld." Tegris said, "I don't understand why she's willing to be a maid by your side."
"Do you know her identity? Do you know who she is? " Laing asked curiously. "Based on the current information, she should be the first chosen one of the Pale Queen, the chosen one of the Elven Underground God System's King."
"How can a chosen one directly use the Pale Queen's highest level divine spell?" Tegris squinted at Laing. "Has Lilith ever taught anyone the divine spell she used to create a new world?"
"So, Olica is the Pale Queen?!" Laing's expression changed slightly.
"Not really." Tegris shook his head. He saw Olica walking towards them and immediately stopped the topic. "Forget it. She will tell you if she wants to."
"Why can't you make it clear? Do you have to be so mysterious? "Laing was a little upset. Tegris also liked to talk in riddles.
"It's best for mortals not to talk about the gods because the gods are temperamental." Tegris shook his head. "The Pale Queen is the King of the Underground God System, and we Assur believe in the Gods of Heaven. But even so, even I rarely talk about it. Only you like to talk about the gods. But this is normal. You are one of them."
"I'm at most a demigod," Laing complained.
"A demigod is also a god." Teglis glanced at Carolina, who was following behind Forgen. "Your brother is very powerful, but it's not a good idea to replace Aralos with him. It'll make it more difficult for us to communicate."
"Is Forgen not as powerful as Aralos?" Laing always felt that Tegris was implying something.
"It has nothing to do with strength. What I'm saying is that Aralos is the Chosen Champion of Yisha's incarnation in the mortal world as the Wood Elf Queen Aleil. Yisha is one of the most important gods in the Gods of Heaven, and Aralos' identity is very important." Tegris looked at the night sky. "You don't have it, and neither does Forgen."
"Just like before, you always want to use all possible resources." Laing smiled.
"Master ~" Olica approached, and the dark elf took the initiative to hold Laing's arm, letting her full softness stick to Laing. "Master, look, there are many people trying to please your wife ~"
"Hahahaha ~ It's normal. Suria's popularity is a good thing." Laing laughed. From the beginning of the banquet, Suria was the focus of everyone. Laing watched from a distance and didn't interfere with what his wife was doing.
At the same time, in the distance, the Emperor was chatting with Grand Duke Schultz. The Emperor's face was serious, and Schultz was smiling.
"Look, Master, that romantic Mr. Adabe is also here," Olica said meaningfully. "Don't you have any thoughts?"
"Ahahahaha, what thoughts can I have?" Laing looked in the distance at the romantic Adabe, who was trying to strike up a conversation with Karolina and fawning over the Wood Elf Princess, and smiled helplessly.
This was a speculator, and Laing could see and hear some rumors, that this was a speculator who liked all kinds of noble girls. He was the rag in Schultz's hand.
When he went to the Eight Peaks Mountain expedition, Laing also heard that this guy took the initiative to come to his palace and gave Suria gifts and fawned over her. Schultz also told Laing that this guy liked noble girls.
Some people must think that if Laing didn't kill this guy, he would be an idiot.
But in fact, if Laing made a move on this guy now, he would be a real idiot.
With the intelligence and skill of the Romantic Guest Adabe, did this guy leave any evidence behind? Had he ever revealed any of his thoughts?
No, not a single word. The most high-profile sentence that Adabe said was "I want to have dinner with Madam Suria."
Could this be called evidence? At least a thousand nobles in Brittany had said this. Excluding the female nobles, there were at least five hundred male nobles. At least a hundred merchants in the upper and lower houses of Marienburg had said this in the past few days. Oliver and Hadrian had also said this. Did Laing find an excuse to kill them all?
Moreover, this guy Adabe gave Laing money and gifts, and offered to help him when he was in trouble. At least on the surface, was there any problem with his actions? If Laing made a move on him, how? What's the excuse? Groundless? Or do I suspect that this guy has other ideas?
If so, when Hadrian sent Olica here, Laing should have killed him immediately.
You suspect so you can kill people at will? This is not even an imaginary defense. There's something wrong with your brain. Do you think I can kill people with my imagination? The evidence is all made up by your imagination?
Will there still be people who will cooperate with Laing in the future? Will there still be people who will be willing to offer him an olive branch? Complimenting Suria, only to be killed by the Knight King's "I suspect that you have other ideas and schemes"?
That would only prove to the world that this Knight King was a real idiot, and it was time for him to abdicate.
Laing smiled at this thought. Many times, people would become what they hated the most. Many people were obsessed with authority as much as they hated it. Once power was in their hands, they would immediately change their identity.
A monk can touch it, but I can't?
What Laing did was to say to Schultz, "You've been using this rag for too long. It's time to change it."
Schultz's replies were also very simple, "I need the right time" and "I need to spend some time to choose another one that suits me."
"Laing? You're here. Hello, Mr. Tegris. " Suria finally got rid of countless tycoons and local nobles, as well as a large group of noble ladies. "Why are you hiding in this corner? The Emperor was looking for you just now."
"Why is the Emperor looking for me?" Laing smiled.
"He said that His Majesty Laing is his confidant and best friend, but now he's lost you." Suria smiled sweetly. The female knight held Laing's other arm. "How interesting."
"… It's good that he's lost." Laing also said meaningfully, "We're allies first, then best friends. We're monarchs first, then we're people. So what if he's lost? We won't lose our alliance."
"Let's rest for a while. In three days, we'll immediately depart for Ossouin." Tegris closed his eyes. The way Laing hugged his left and right reminded him of his aunt and Lilith, the goddess that he once longed for.
He suddenly had a feeling that there would be a conflict between Laing and Tyrion.
Definitely.
… I'm the section break that I lost my best friend …
Three days later, outside of Fort Marlin, under the guidance of the giant Phoenix, Ryan and the others officially boarded the Iron Armored Ships "Enterprise" and "Saint Sophia" and began their journey to visit Ossuan.
Thick smoke billowed from the chimney of the iron warship Enterprise. The steam boiler was working at full capacity. Laing stood on the deck, looking at the vast ocean in the distance and feeling the dazzling summer sun.
He would spend at least a month and a half on the ocean.
The iron warship was not as fast as the high-precision Phoenix, but it gave people a feeling of strength and steadiness, especially the triple-headed obsidian cannon on the Enterprise. Knight King reached out and stroked the black barrel of the cannon. He immediately felt a sense of steadiness in his heart.
"What do you think, His Majesty Laing? We dwarves have a fair price and excellent quality. You'll know when you experience it yourself." Little Solgreen Ironhammer was also going to Ossouin this time. "What do you think? What do you think after boarding the dwarves' iron warship?"
"Too fast, too fast. It's as if you're rushing me," Leon said with a smile. "It's perfect to take an ironclad to Ossuan."
"Hahahaha!"
