Chapter 398. The Alliance
It was as if time had stopped. Not only were many soldiers dumbfounded, but even the pavilion was dumbfounded.
What was the meaning of this?
Pressure?
What?
The black-armored soldiers were originally ready to take a step, but at this moment, they didn't know whether to take it or not. They didn't know whether to go up or down, and the atmosphere on the field was extremely strange.
Fortunately, a few seconds later, a figure slowly appeared behind the Prince.
At the same time, an invisible dagger appeared on the Prince's neck.
The Prince's well-maintained skin was clearly sunken, and the blood marks outlined the dagger's outline.
"Protect the Prince!"
One of the guards closest to him let out an angry roar. Whoosh! They pointed their weapons at the man in unison.
Without a doubt, this was Char.
"Char..."
Lucia was relieved, but at the same time, he was gritting his teeth.
"Char! This guy..."
"Char, it's Char! It's him!"
Imira got up from the ground in excitement and screamed.
"This guy this is too cool!"
The reason for his scream was related to his sudden rescue, but it was more because Char was in the limelight.
The feeling of the world being focused on you was great. Just imagining it was hard to resist.
As Astro heaved a sigh of relief, he also felt a little fortunate.
He had a premonition that this guy would end this chaotic scene and make the situation develop in his favor.
At the same time, he was glad that he had chosen the right side.
"Quiet, soldiers."
The Prince didn't seem to panic at all. He motioned for the soldiers around him to not be nervous, and then asked in a low voice, "He had never felt so close to death.
The strange chill from the tip of his spine was like the tongue of a poisonous snake, licking his skin, making people feel cold all over.
He was wearing a necklace and had three rings on his hand to resist such a close-range assassination. He was confident that nothing could break through this series of defenses except for the legendary God-slaying bullets... However, the strange dagger of the other party easily bypassed the layers of protection, like a skilled thief who easily stole his underwear through a wall and three anti-theft doors.
What was even weirder was that they didn't even notice the other party's approach despite there being so many of them.
Where did he come from?
When he was fighting bloom, this guy was not as elusive as he was now.
"I'll give you some advice on life, Your Highness," Char said in a low voice.
"What?"
"Why don't you take your people and get lost?"
Instead of getting angry, Josh laughed and swallowed his original worries. The other party could not solve the current situation at all. They only wanted to survive.
Small characters were not worth worrying about.
"Are you going to take a few more people with you? For example, our Queen?" He said sarcastically.
'This kid is still too narrow-minded.'
The Prince thought to himself.
I guess that's what you must be thinking now ... Char smiled. you think that I don't have the potential to achieve great things, that I'm too narrow-minded, and that it's a stupid idea to take people and leave instead of making good use of the resources at hand, right? With so many people, where can i escape to?"
"Isn't it?"
"Let's put it this way. First of all, Your Excellency may have overestimated the value of your life ... Secondly, you might have overestimated your influence in the Army."
Char moved closer to the Prince and whispered, "Don't make a sound, Your Highness. Keep your eyes on him and take a closer look. Does the magic advisor, Gina, look normal? "
"What do you mean?"
Prince Josh's brow furrowed, but he still followed Char's instructions and glanced at Gina discreetly.
At first glance, it seemed normal, but if one thought about it carefully, it seemed... There was indeed something strange?
The young noble clenched his magic staff, and the light at the top of the staff flickered just like his fluctuating heart.
Gina? Loyalty?
Did he have to be so nervous?
"But what does this mean?" He asked subconsciously.
"To tell you the truth, I really didn't think that you would establish such an alliance."
Char was not in a hurry to answer, and instead, he sighed.
This was both lamenting and the truth. There was no such thing as the appearance of Lavosudeland in the past plots, which meant that there was no such a rare opportunity for Joshua and the others to stand up on behalf of the male Dark Elves.
Perhaps they had been waiting for such an opportunity in the past, but it was a pity that they didn't get it even when sulseus turned into a sea of fire.
This was actually a new plot!
A new plot!
The established plot of the game was indeed not as exciting as the real world!
Although Char knew that they were secretly in contact, these old foxes had never revealed the ultimate goal of this Alliance... He must have been afraid of the traditional Dark Elves for too long, and that the slightest exposure would bring him death, so he had survived until the fall of Andaheim.
This group of people had some skills.
"However, you have clearly underestimated your unity." Char continued.
"What do you mean by that?"
Prince Joshua seemed to have come back to his senses.
"Don't you think that the backbone of the Alliance has a similar experience? You, Faris, and even Bloom... all of you have had lovely lovers. They let go of their prejudices and traditions and truly loved you, just like the man and woman who hugged each other at the Grand banquet held by the elves outside the court of the Holy tree 1700 years ago..."
"But then, you were forced to have political marriages with women who were very controlling, and then you had to give up your true lovers and watch them be 'cleaned up' by your jealous wives. Even your illegitimate children were killed in secret, but you could only pretend that you didn't know. Only Bloom cleverly left behind the Tinder..."
"This is very much like the sexual version of the vengeance of a martyr that happened in the human countries on the surface. But don't forget, not everyone is like you, with enough motivation, enough emotions, and enough firm beliefs to do this big thing... Well, it's a big thing."
"Besides, interests are relative. You should know that better than I do. Everyone had a scale in their hearts. For many nobles, they could kneel under the skirt of a charming Duchess and be favored and trusted by her by paying a worthless dignity. if you stand up and risk your life to resist, regardless of the consequences of failure, even if you succeed, you will continue to be at the service of old men like you... So, what was the point of resisting?"
"You feel the need to resist because of the strong emotional resonance created by your own experiences. However, what if someone didn't think so and joined in the name of gender? Could the same gender obtain empathy? Ha, don't be naïve, Your Highness. People can't understand each other. One person only knows how to speak for his own ass. If he doesn't have vested interests, how can he empathize without the same experience ...
"Not everyone has the courage to resist the cruel reality. You should be aware of this."
After a moment of silence, Joshua coldly snorted.
"Hmph, it's useless to talk.
Char could not help but laugh.
He understood that the other party had already listened to this theory, and what was lacking now was the objective facts that complemented it.
They began to get the goods.
"Now we can go back to Gina... Don't you think the lines on the tip of his staff look like bull's strength? Do you see that faintly entangled red magic power..."
"Do you think he's going to use this spell to save you? No, no, no, this kind of positive spell would not be rejected by your shield. Once released, it would definitely hit you. Then, your muscles and blood vessels will expand, and your desire to struggle and strength will increase. Even if I keep this position, the dagger will easily Pierce into your blood vessels, and your Excellency will lose his mind and struggle more violently because of the pain, and finally be killed by me..."
Joshua's body trembled, and the image that Char had described appeared before his eyes.
At such a close distance, his own struggle would not bring any hope of survival but would instead bring death.
"Have you thought of it, Your Highness? when the time comes. there's. 90% chance that you'll die in my hands. When that time comes..."
"So what... I'll carry out my will," said Joshua stubbornly. "We won't fail..."
"If I tell you again that Gina and Pricillia slept together, will you still ask me this? "
The Prince paused for two seconds.
"It's no big deal. I already knew this..."
"You know nothing, Your Highness. What if I say that there are no less than thirty people like him in this team? What's more coincidental is that they're scattered in different teams and each of them has an important position, so they can monitor every word and action of you and the other noble leaders... Did you already know about this?"
Prince was stunned.
"How could Pricillia..."
"Be more realistic, who doesn't know that the nightmare Knights are famous for Surseus's male models? they're all good-looking and clingy, can Pricillia hold back? If it wasn't for the fact that Astlow and his stepmother didn't get along, with his looks and figure, he would have been taken to bed by Pricillia the first time they met. Otherwise, why would he choose you as the second-best choice?
"She's far more skilled than you in manipulating people's hearts. You can only summon and control people on a spiritual level, but she doesn't even let go of her physical body. If she wasn't fully prepared, would she have dared to follow you on this expedition?"
Char did not even try to hide her sarcasm as she said, "Your Highness, do you really think that 'everything is within your control'?"
Prince Joshua was completely shocked.
This did seem like something prisilia would do.
She didn't even try to hide her lecherous side.|Chaos was just like the male nobles of the United Holy Kingdom who didn't hide their promiscuity.
However, her promiscuity was not the main point ...
If what Char said was true, then this seemingly stable environment was in fact full of undercurrents, and one could be crushed to pieces if they were not careful. Their series of actions were simply courting death!
He thought he had Pricillia imprisoned and controlled the situation...
However, Char was also speaking without thinking. He knew that Pricillia was promiscuous and had countless male companions... However, even though the noble circle was a mess, it was another matter if there was really any infiltration or long-distance surveillance of her husband. This time, it was an emergency, and he had only made a guess and had not done any investigation.
However, he had managed to scare off Joshua. On top of that, he still had more solid things to do.
He was a real man.
"To be honest, the lover you were planning to settle down in the outskirts of Laxi County 45 years ago died less than three days after leaving Surseus because the personal guard you placed great importance on and specially sent to send her off had a noseless mammoth tattooed on his crotch. 25 years ago, the kurter herb garden that you built behind prisilia's back was raided for the same reason. The gardener and the pharmacist each had a neckless Flamingo tattoo. 13 years ago ..."
With every sentence Shaya said, Qiao Buya's face darkened.
This was prisilia's bad taste. All the men she 'trusted' would leave a similar mark.
For example, there was a half-bodied moon-ring snake between geobuya's legs.
But to him, it wasn't that he couldn't accept the fact that he was riding a horse on top of his head. The traditional male Dark Elves wouldn't care too much about such things either ... The key was that if what Shaya said was true, it meant that all these years, his every move had been under prisilia's surveillance ...
In other words, the 'woman's enemy' that he had painstakingly built might also be ...
No, it was not possible ...
It was very likely!
Thinking of this, the Prince's back was soaked in cold sweat. He felt dizzy and almost lost his balance.
Calm down!
Calm down!
Joshua took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
This might not be true. This guy might have just made it up to escape.
That's right, it could be fake!
"What do you want?"
He asked through gritted teeth.
I will give you a detailed list of the people in the Army who have an affair with prisilia. Shaya shrugged. you can beat her at her own game. You can kill her before she starts to attack you all. Then, you can do whatever you want.
"Why should I believe you? I can't possibly ..."
"No, you definitely can. You have a good reason to strip them clean and check them one by one, and I will give you this win-win opportunity ... Oh, it's coming."
Shaya suddenly took out a steampunk-looking gas mask and put it on.
Almost at the same time, a strange wind seemed to blow from all directions.
At the same time, there was an indescribable stench in the air ...
It was like. smelly sock that had not been washed for a year and was slowly baked with. small fire. It was also like a barbarian's underwear that had not been washed for half. year and had scabbed. The bacteria scattered in the air after being rubbed hard and shaken off ...
The smell wasn't strong at first, but as the wind blew, the stinky dust swirled and stuck everywhere, making all the elves present have an infinite desire to take a bath.
This was the corpse of the giant. As the saying goes, dust to dust, earth to earth. The wind that was produced now was the return of the " raw material.
The giant was created from the dead bodies of the players of lvosodran who had yet to leave, as well as some of the NPCs. The latter was fine, as the NPCs were a part of this world.
But the players were not.
It was only maintenance now, not closing the server. After the server was reopened, the players would still have to come online!
Even if sacred souls had 10000 guts, they wouldn't dare to ignore these raw materials.
Even if they could bypass the system and control the characters left behind by the " players " after they went offline, it was like a naughty child stealing money from his parents. If they didn't want to be killed, they had to find a way to secretly release the characters.
And now, it was the process of "putting it back."
The raw materials used to create players were still alive. After leaving this part, what was left that belonged to the NPCs were naturally the air-dried corpses.
That smell ... Tsk, blessed by the heavens.
