Chapter 453: Three lines of defense! The war is over
The Elf King will have many more uses in the future.
It can even be said to be of great use!
Tang Zheng glanced at the Elf King who was thrown to the ground and fainted, and a deep light appeared in the depths of his pupils.
"The plan here is going smoothly. I wonder how things are going over there with Princess Lana?"
Tang Zheng thought silently in his heart.
Guiding the Silian Theocracy into a decisive battle with the Elf Kingdom ahead of time is not just for the sake of later developments.
Dealing with the Elf King is an extremely important part of Tang Zheng’s current plan!
"Let me introduce you to you."
Tang Zheng spoke to Juesi Jueming, then walked towards the location of Yimina and the other person on the outskirts of the battlefield.
Juesi Jueming opened his pink lips slightly, revealing his sharp canine teeth. He carried a cross spear and sickle in one hand and followed casually:
"Those two cute bugs~, do they really know the little black-haired girl?"
This thought flashed through my mind.
Juesijueming's expression remained unchanged, as if he had expected it, but from the details on his face, one could vaguely observe a hint of indifference.
Before the battle.
The Church's troops had already cleared the area in advance. Apart from the little black-haired guy, the only ones who witnessed the entire battle were the two bugs.
From the previous deliberate protection of the Cerberus or some other details, Juesijieming vaguely sensed it.
otherwise!
The numerous pieces of information revealed in the battle, as well as the identities of the gods and men, would not be allowed to be snooped upon by others if it were not for Tang Zheng.
Juesijieming had already taken care of Imina and the other two.
They saw two figures walking towards them from the center of the battlefield.
“Ah…ah…”
The elf girl's face was pale, her hands were clenched into fists, she stared blankly at the Elf King's position, an unnatural blush on her face.
He seemed to want to speak, but his voice was stuck in his throat and he couldn't say a word.
At this moment, Imina no longer cared about the silly-looking elf girl beside her, and subconsciously got up from the ground.
The movements are a little bit awkward!
On the fair and slender neck, there were red marks left by the Elf King's pinching.
Imina wanted to take a step forward, but her body seemed to have lost control, and she could only stand there stiffly and awkwardly.
Field of vision ahead.
Tang Zheng's figure was just as Imina remembered, calm and composed, with a reassuring smile always on his face.
In her cognition.
Although Tang Zheng is very powerful, it is impossible for him to be so terrifying. It is completely beyond imagination!
I saw the battle just now.
Imina couldn't describe it with her poor vocabulary.
The arrogant and invincible Elf King was actually picked up by Tang Zheng and thrown on the ground like garbage.
Such a shocking feeling.
It made Imina tremble from the depths of her soul.
Tang Zheng in front did not have a strong aura, but when Juesi Jueming, who was following closely behind him, walked casually, the air around him became distorted.
Just a glance.
Imina felt as if her heart was hit by a heavy hammer, and she hurriedly lowered her head and looked at the ground.
Death is so terrible!
Then Tang Zheng, who was walking in front, even if he did not appear strong, was actually stronger than the elf woman with black and white hair.
This is common sense!
Because the strong will never let the weak walk ahead of them.
but……
Imina pursed her lips, a blank expression in her amber eyes, and in her heart she thought, "What on earth was the meaning of what happened before?"
Previous experience with Tang Zheng!
...Am I like a joke... In front of such a strong man... like a clown.
Yimina naturally would not think that Tang Zheng's strength increased in a short period of time, but that he had possessed such powerful strength a long time ago.
"Are you not hurt?"
A gentle voice sounded slowly.
Imina's shoulders stiffened, and she was a little afraid to look up, but finally raised her head stubbornly, making herself look fierce.
This expression isn't difficult.
As a half-elf in the Empire, she always encountered some annoying humans, so she made this expression to scare off her opponents.
What caught my eye was an outstretched finger.
Flick your forehead with your fingers.
There was a crisp "bang" sound.
"What are you doing!" Imina's head tilted back unconsciously, she subconsciously covered her forehead and shouted as before.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Tang Zheng retracted his arm and said with a relaxed smile: "I am quite strong."
Imina was startled and turned her head away: "I saw it."
"Please introduce yourself."
"Imina, Antilini, come to think of it, you two are half-elves." Tang Zheng chuckled as he watched the two of them speak.
Showing this information to Imina this time did not mean that he had let his guard down.
Not long ago.
Imina had passed the test in Tang Zheng's mind, which was when Imina was captured alive by the Elf King.
With the overwhelming terror displayed by the Elf King, ordinary people would either collapse and beg for mercy, or grasp at straws for help.
Just like Captain Negan of the [Sunshine Scripture] facing Ainz Ooal Gown.
And the result.
Imina neither leaked his information nor activated the "Magic Mark".
Although it's a bit cold to do so.
But it was a test that Tang Zheng had to take, because it was related to the next arrangements of the Elf Kingdom.
"Tsk~, even half-elves have their differences."
Juesi Jueming glanced at Imina and tutted softly, his eyes filled with contempt and ridicule. He ignored Imina and looked at Tang Zhengdao:
"what are you up to?"
She didn't think Tang Zheng was simply introducing herself to the bug.
"I think I need you two to act out a scene together." Tang Zheng said, looking at Juesijieming:
"You have defeated the Elf King, but I do not want him to be 'captured alive' or 'killed'."
"In other words! The Elf King was defeated by you and finally escaped."
When Juesijieming heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up, as if he found it interesting.
"This is in addition to being related to the next plan."
"Once the information that you killed the Elf King is transmitted back to the Theocracy, the Elf Kingdom will be completely taken over by the Theocracy."
"Given the Theocracy's 'human supremacy' and nearly 200 years of hatred, the forest elves will suffer a devastating massacre. This is not what I want to see."
"I need the Elven Kingdom to have a certain degree of autonomy, or to be temporarily incorporated into the Theocracy as a vassal state."
Tang Zheng told the plan.
Without the deterrent of the Elf King, the Theocracy will have no concerns about the Elf Kingdom. This is not simply out of kindness.
"So, given that the Elf King is 'missing', the Elf Kingdom needs a new king."
"oh."
Juesijueming half-closed his eyes, then looked back at Imina, giving her a rare serious look.
"You choose her?"
Tang Zheng nodded: "That's right."
This is also the most important reason why some information was leaked to Imina.
It is impossible for Imina to control the Elf Kingdom with her strength and other conditions, and the other party probably doesn't dare to do so.
This is not secretly controlling the [Eight Fingers], but a situation that is put on the stage and exposed in the open!
If Imina didn't know the strength that Tang Zheng possessed, she would not have the confidence and courage to control the Elf Kingdom.
It can be regarded as a "loss of intelligence" that has to be decided!
Tang Zheng's eyes swept across the vast "Ivansha Forest" and he thought silently:
"The third line of defense..."
In his plan, there are three lines of defense.
The first line of defense: the Kingdom of Li-Yestije.
The second line of defense: the Holy Kingdom, Abelion Hills, and the Silian Theocracy.
The third line of defense: Ivansha Forest.
This is also the reason why Tang Zheng does not intend to let the Elf Kingdom be completely annexed by the Slaine Theocracy.
certainly!
Tang Zheng has not invested too much in these three lines of defense at present because they are still missing a core point.
"I hope the Elf King can play a key role."
Tang Zheng thought silently in his heart. He was very clear about the difficulty of the core plan.
Once it fails.
There is no need to invest too many resources in the three lines of defense. Instead, all resources on these three lines of defense should be quickly collected.
Move the real base to the "Valley of Despair" where Yalaer is!
In a word - "take a long-term view".
"It feels~very interesting."
Juesijieming deliberately prolonged his tone, and a faint pressure emanated from his body, rushing towards Imina.
"snort."
Imina's shoulders swayed, her long, slender legs slightly bent, and she quickly regained her footing with a muffled groan.
"Can I too?" Juesijieming didn't look at Yimina, but asked Tang Zheng expectantly.
"certainly."
Tang Zheng shrugged and looked at Juesijieming calmly: "If you are willing."
"Forget it, Boss~"
Juesi Jueming retracted his aura and yawned boredly: "It sounds like it would be very troublesome. I don't want to be the Elf King."
Imina relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.
The pressure just now was really terrible.
Out of woman's intuition, she felt that this scary half-elf with black and white hair hated her a little.
"Speaking of which...this is the king of the Elf Kingdom! How could it be confirmed so easily?"
Imina couldn't help but shout inwardly, feeling a little excited:
"Is this considered a sudden ascension to heaven? It's even more exaggerated than the stories sung by the bards!"
Her cognition was constantly shattered and recast in this short day.
Make sure of this!
Only then did Tang Zheng look at the elf girl who had been ignored by everyone.
The opponent relies on magic bow and arrow.
The elf who single-handedly resisted the elite troops of the Church.
Bang!
Bang!
The elf girl suddenly knelt on the ground, banged her head heavily on the ground in front of Tang Zheng, and then kowtowed continuously.
See this scene.
"Ha~, boss, it seems you don't need to waste your breath." Juesijieming said to Tang Zhengdao in a teasing tone.
…
"Shangtuyue"
October 25th.
The desperate troops who were chasing the "escaped" Elf King returned to the tactical command center, causing concern among several marshals.
The advancement of the battlefield has been temporarily suspended!
Tang Zheng easily sneaked into the Elf King's City and took away everything in the treasury in one go.
October 27th.
After re-planning and adjusting their troops, the Theocracy launched another attack on the Elf King's City, but encountered the desperate resistance of the forest elves in the city.
October 28th.
The northern wall of the Elf King's City was breached.
A group of forest elves from the "Linyu Tribe" joined the battlefield. Their leader was a half-elf riding the Crown Monarch Butterfly, one of the 15 kings of the Great Sea of Trees.
October 31st.
After several days of tenacious resistance, the elves, while the Theocracy continued to spread the news that the Elf King had been defeated and fled.
final.
The half-elves led the elite of the Elf King City to escape, and the Elf King City was completely breached.
It is said that on that day, all the Elf King's concubines committed suicide before the royal city was captured. The scene shocked and disgusted the vanguard troops.
——"Middle-Earth Moon"
November 3rd, heavy snow!
The offensive of the Theocracy's forces has come to a temporary halt, and there is still no news of the escaped Elf King.
The search, which lasted for several days (actually wandering around in the forest), had to be stopped.
Completely confirm the judgment that the Elf King escaped!
…………
Apollon Hills.
deep.
During this period of time, Tang Zheng sorted out the property he had harvested from the Elf Kingdom, and the number of gold coins was not that large.
Since the Elf Kingdom has no communication with the outside world, there are not many places that require the consumption of human gold coins.
However, there are quite a few kinds of resources, alchemical materials, etc., and their value cannot be measured by the number of gold coins.
but.
Compared to these things that he can't use at the moment, what he cares about most are the magic props.
pity!
Tang Zheng was greatly disappointed. The only item that caught his eye was the "Deer Antler Crown" worn on the Elf King's head. It was a "Legendary (71~80 Lv)" item.
Possesses the abilities of movement-impeding resistance, fear resistance, and time countermeasures.
The first two abilities are nothing, the key is the "time strategy" method, which makes the value of this item soar.
In "YGGDRASIL", time measurement cannot be obtained through normal professions and can only be dealt with using special skills or props.
Some time ago, Tang Zheng obtained the "Pulse of the Annual Rings" from the magic tree, the ability to deal with time.
Such props are of no use to him, but they can be used by his subordinates.
"Properties panel."
Tang was sitting next to the wooden and thatched house, smelling the fresh air and gazing at the lake where fish jumped out from time to time, when he felt something in his heart.
…
Magic: Mercy of the Twin Sala Trees (Level 10)
Consumption: 80MP, Cooldown 4 hours
Introduction: Magic has a triple effect
①: After the magic is activated, the caster's physical strength will be slowly improved within a certain period of time.
②: During the magic period, you have complete resistance to instant death.
③: Resurrect immediately after the physical strength reaches zero, recovering 10% of the health value, and will not cause the level to drop.
(PS: Once rebirth magic is cast, it cools down for 4 hours. During this cooldown period, other types of resurrection magic cannot be used.)
…
One of the biggest takeaways from this event!
"As expected, there are certain limitations." Tang Zheng glanced at the information displayed by the magic and shook his head slightly, but there was still a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
Originally, he wanted to make the magic into a magic scroll, which would be released immediately upon death, but it turned out to have a 4-hour cooldown period.
It's enough to fight a battle.
Among the resurrection magics he knew, in addition to this magic, there was also a magic called "Phoenix Flame".
Tang Zheng initially guessed that there should be some limitations to rebirth magic, so he thought about whether the two types of resurrection magic could be used together.
As a result, all rebirth magic was restricted...
But it's normal if you think about it carefully.
If there were no restrictions on rebirth magic, there would be no way to sell krypton gold resurrection items in the game.
--rustle!
The sound of footsteps on the grass came from far away.
"Tang, are you looking for me?"
Nfirea ran over from a distance, breathless.
"You're here, Nfirea. Sorry to interrupt your potion research."
Tang Zheng stood up and said embarrassedly: "It is indeed a troublesome matter."
"No trouble, no trouble."
Nfirea waved his hands quickly, and said nervously, "If there's anything you need me to do, just ask, Tang."
"Charm of all races!"
Tang Zheng chanted in a low voice and cast a spell.
Nfirea's eyes instantly became dull and he froze in place.
"We can do it even if you remain conscious...but to prevent any risks, I apologize."
Tang Zheng showed an apologetic look on his face and took out the golden cheongsam world-class prop [Alluring Beauty] from the package beside him:
"Ahem, Nfirea, please put on this cheongsam."
"good."
Nfirea walked forward dully, took the [Alluring Beauty], and began to put it on.
Tang Zhengze waved his hand casually.
An unconscious figure was thrown out from the world-class item [Mandala of Two Worlds]. It was the so-called missing Elf King.
Tang Zheng looked at Nfirea again, and seeing Nfirea dressed in a women's cheongsam, he couldn't help but take another look at her.
It actually feels inexplicably appropriate!
"Well, it's been taking a while."
He had originally wanted to take back [The Beauty That Can Never Be Suppressed], but because Juesijie was on the front line before, he handed the guardian over to the Red Mummy Cat.
To prevent trouble!
Tang Zheng could only wait until Juesijiemu returned from the front line and replaced the guardian before he could take back [Alluring Beauty].
