Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 172 22. The Witch King's Punch

Malekith found that Dacius had a very high talent in military strategy, internal affairs and politics, just like Alandrian, no!Dacius is the enhancement of Alandrian, even more outstanding!Even more excellent!Even more dazzling!Perhaps there is no reason why Dacius, as an elf, became the Umak of those ancient saints. Perhaps the appearance of Dacius was a gift from the gods to him?Thinking of this, he shook his head slightly, now he only needs a little training and protection to make Dacius his right-hand man in the future, becoming the Hand of the Witch King!Perhaps Dakuus will be at the helm of Drucci later on?
No!It is the hand of the future Phoenix King!Just like before, Malekith led the army to fight fiercely in the front, and Alandrian sat in the rear to organize a steady stream of food and troops to support the front.

"My dear Dacius, do you need me to help you veto this marriage?" Malekith asked suddenly after thinking for a while.

"What? Marriage? Shouldn't it be used?" Dacius, who was lost in thought, didn't respond for a while why Malekith suddenly asked about his marriage. How did this suddenly change from politics and military affairs to marriage?
"It seems that you are mentally prepared, but why are you doing this?" Malekith pointed his finger at Ulthuan on the map, looking at Dacius and asked with some hesitation.

"I don't think there is anything good about this place now, I hate it! Although I was born in Naggaroth, I hate Naggaroth! It's always howling cold wind! It's always cold! It's always It’s the unmelted frozen soil! It’s always the same cloud! It’s always the damned invasion! Forever and ever! These damned forever! The most important thing is that we don’t have the capital and strength to fight against the next invasion of Chaos demons here. !” Dacius said with some exaggeration, he really didn’t like this damned shabby place, and he also knew that Malekith didn’t like this shabby place either, this was just Malekith’s foothold. Some are long, nearly 5000 years old.

"My lord, sooner or later the portal will open again, and chaos in its original form will reappear! The realm of chaos will expand and pollute the world! Already I smell an older and deadlier smell, and death will reign over the world. We Take back Ulthuan first, take back what was once yours and your father's! Then, like your father, you are leading us to fight against the never-ending army of Chaos demons. But all we have to do is return to Ulthuan first Ann, rule Ulthuan and restore Ulthuan to its former glory!" Dacius slowly exhaled the smoke, then raised his head and looked at Malekith and said solemnly, telling Malekith a few days ago Said and said again.

But this time Dacius' mentality is completely different. Although he has always held the mentality of a happy person, even a happy person has to do something for this damn world, instead of waiting for death. The most important thing is He doesn't think death is a good destination for him now, especially at the hands of Chaos Demon.Tzeentch is interested in the stories in his soul, and Slaanesh is interested in the strangeness of his soul. What awaits him may be endless suffering, endless pain, and endless torture in his soul. After all, the Chaos Demon Realm has no concept of time.

Malekith looked at Dacius speechless for a long time, and the two elves looked at each other silently. Malekith seemed to want to use his eyes to see through the soul in Dacius' body and spy out Dacius. It's not about black magic, and he thought about what Dacius had told him about being watched by two Chaos Gods before, but Dacius was expressing his firm attitude.

"What if everything is over?" After a long time, Malekith asked curiously. He asked about everything after he returned to Ulthuan and exiled the endless army of Chaos demons.

"I will continue to strengthen the spiritual vein nodes of the Maelstrom and the Lizardmen, so that a damned monster will not suddenly pop out when I am riding a Chocobo in Lustria's Kauthen Plain, or I will not be in the Pyramid. While I was sleeping, the skinny servant told me that some damned chaos army suddenly appeared outside the city and needed me to fight. Even if I went to fight to face the chaos demon suppressed by the maelstrom and the spirit vein node, I could exile it without any effort. Maybe I will end up lying in the pyramid and die of boredom or old age." Dacius took down the burnt pipe, spread his hands and said to Malekith with a smile, his meaning was obvious, although everything he did They all have a purpose, but his destination is Lustria, not some kind of Phoenix King in Ulthuan, talking nonsense with those elves and elf gods all day long.

To say the least, Dacius can't tell Malekith that he also wants to be the Phoenix King, then he might not be the future Witch King's Fist, but the Witch King will give him a punch right now .

"My lord, let's continue to deduce? After all, we still have to fight. It is impossible for us to take back a piece of decayed Ulthuan. Maybe time will not wait for us, and maybe there will be other circumstances involved." After a long time After a while, Dacius broke the silence again.

Malekith didn't say anything, but nodded slowly.

"Here! Lothern! Here! The mountains of Caledon! I think I have to go to the mountains of the dwarves in the future, and the dwarf language taught to me by His Majesty will come in handy." Dacius pointed Caledor Mountains on the map, he suddenly thought of something interesting.

"Oh?"

"If I remember correctly, the phoenix crown and Caledor dragon's horn are still in the treasury of those dwarves. It's not the same thing. I hope that your majesty will wear the phoenix under the witness of the gods. The crown crowns the Phoenix King." When Dacius said this, he didn't show a flattering expression, but said it seriously, as if things should be like this, but the fact is that it should be like this, anyway, he can't understand that Why should the two treasures be placed there? Law +1, domination +1.

Hearing these words, Malekith suddenly burst out laughing in conjunction with Dacius' serious expression, and the long-lost laughter echoed in the pitch-black throne room again.

"When our cousins ​​fell into decline, we attacked here directly! We first used magic to trigger earthquakes and tsunamis, and then the black ark rushed directly to the land." After Malekith finished singing, Dacius pointed to Lother on the map En said.

The current Phoenix King Court is located in Lothern, the capital of the Kingdom of Itain. The political environment of Asur is extremely delicate. The ten kingdoms in the inner and outer rings elect a Phoenix King, plus the princes and princesses of the ten kingdoms in the inner and outer rings. , forming dual politics.The Phoenix King is apparently in charge of Ulthuan's politics, military and economy, and is the monarch of the Azuls.But under the feudal system of Azul, the power is greatly restricted. The Phoenix King seems to be able to control everything, but in fact he can control nothing. The conspiracy is still a court conspiracy, whether it is the Phoenix Royal Court or not, no one can do anything about it.But countless Asur men still rush to become the Phoenix King, because being the Phoenix King can marry the Eternal Queen, though. . .

To put it more vulgarly, it is to give you face and call you the Phoenix King, and if you don't give you face, you will directly ignore you.But there are hundreds of kinds of elves, all kinds of tidy tiger pens and two phoenix kings abound, such as Caledor's son Caledor II who started the long-bearded war against the dwarves, and gave up the old world colony Karajol, who built the White Tower of Hoth, Bel-Khadis, who sent the Asur Navy to Naggaroth without thinking.

The Eternal Queen has a transcendent religious status and is the spiritual leader of the Asurs, similar to a godmother.Some religious sacrifices are usually organized, such as sacrificial activities in spring, etc. (just like the ancient spring plowing ceremony).

If it comes to wartime, this political structure will work. The Phoenix King and the Everqueen can call on the military units and militia-like people of the ten kingdoms in the inner and outer rings to unite against various invasions.

The current Phoenix King is not the well-known One Piece King Fenuba, but Bel Hathor, who was elected during the last Drucci expedition (1503 Imperial Calendar). He was chosen because of Asu Many princes and princesses in Er's court believed that he could be easily manipulated to achieve their own political goals.

Turns out the princes and princesses were wrong, they screwed up a bit, and Bel Hathor was not at their mercy.The Phoenix King, who was born in the Kingdom of Saffrey, became a ruler known for his decisiveness and wisdom. During his reign, he even compiled the "History of the Mage of Saffrey". The most famous example is his refusal to consent to the invasion Naggaroth, though he knew that Asur might wipe out Drucci in his weakened state, feared that such a bloody and painful war would result in the deaths of so many elves that the extinction of the elves race would be doomed No, he wouldn't bet the future of his people simply because of the need for revenge.At least that's what it said, and no one knows what the specific situation is.

Bell Hathor, who did not choose stud to gamble on the country's luck, began to restore the wounds of the war after taking office, restore people's livelihood, increase the national output value, and make Usuan rich and strong again. After the failed raid, he issued a decree banning humans from setting foot on Ulthuan, but the occasional human ship passing through Lothern can still get some supplies, if it is done properly.In 1903 in the Imperial Calendar, he sent Fenuba, the prince of Itain Kingdom, to the Old World to study the emerging human empire, and now Fenuba is still in the Old World.

Dacius knew that he would have a chance to meet Fenuba when he went to the old world, and maybe there would be a scene where Li Kui met Li Gui. He also knew that Fenuba was the emerald of Tyrion brothers grandfather The Sea family recommended it to ensure the interests of the Emerald Sea family's maritime trade. He also knew that Fenuba would persuade Bel-Hator to open the sea after returning to Ulthuan from the Old World, which was contrary to his interests. Yes, but there is room for manipulation.

And the current Eternal Queen is the tenth Esterel, the mother of "Bright Light" Alarielle. The normal timeline is that she was poisoned by Julian Poison Blade lurking in Ulthuan in 2300 of the Imperial Calendar. kill.

"Lothern! The jewel in the crown of our cowardly cousin. The feasibility is very high, heh, the prestige of successfully capturing Lothern Phoenix Court will be hit to the lowest, maybe we can find an opportunity to assassinate their eternal queen through spies , so that they will become a mass of loose sand, I don't think they will organize a decisive battle by that time. Here! We control this place, our fleet can enter the Twilight Sea and Dream Sea, and the road to the Inner Ring Kingdom is opened Already." Malekith pointed to Lothern Sea Gate on the map and said seriously.

Dacius nodded in agreement. He thought that there was no point in deducing this movie any longer, and the situation would be complicated and changeable.The princes and princesses of the ten kingdoms in the inner and outer rings are of all kinds, divided into hundreds of types, with endless changes. It is estimated that Tzeentch himself will have to scratch the back of his head and think about it when he comes.Maybe the princes who thought they would surrender would fight to the death, maybe some princes voted without using spies and political means, maybe there are many possibilities.

There is also Caledon in the maelstrom. Although Caledon's physical body is gone, his soul is still there. He has been watching and protecting Ulthuan. It is estimated that some things will come out by then.Maybe there will be other forces involved, such as the Yankees who are moving south and Gollum, the "King Belly" who happened to float to Ulthuan.

What's more disgusting is that there are gods in this world. If Tzeentch finds out that he is not the God's Chosen and starts to build the Black Ark on a large scale, the whole dream-like drama will cause the Asur shipbuilder designer who wakes up the next day to have too much in his mind A ship design plan that is stronger than the dragon ship and also aimed at the black ark, and more coincidentally, there is a bag of seeds on the table suddenly, which can plant the seeds of the star wood that used to be in the Draco forest in Anhara .It's not impossible, but completely possible. Tzeentch is the god of wisdom and seeking knowledge. At that time, a large number of black arks and a group of newly-emerged enhanced dragon boats will go on the vast sea.

The god of mist, Lad Lily and the pure girl, Lilith will send some oracle to Eltharion and Aris Anar, and it is not impossible to have some kind of bridge that storms the Krakalund shipyard on a stormy night .After all, the former raided Naggaroth, although according to the normal timeline, there is still a long time before that happened.Dacius suddenly thought of something again. Without the guidance of Azul spies inside Drucci, he could get into the Sea of ​​Resentment. Maybe it was the one who made it up. The fleet used something like the fog to get in. Yes, or it can't be sailed on dry land and teleported in, right?Not to mention Aris Anar, he often wandered around Naggaroth with his shadows, attacking Drucci's caravans, transport teams, small patrol troops and small strongholds.

"My lord, do we have a priest of the God of Mist here?" Dacius put his elbows on the table and grabbed his hair with both hands, looking anxious.

After Malekith said that sentence just now, after seeing Dacius in a daze, he didn't continue to say anything later, but kept observing Dacius.

"No! Very few Drucci would believe in that one, and you know why." Malekith said decisively without hesitation after hearing this question.

"My dear Dacius, the plan comes step by step! Go to dinner and call your brother and followers. You don't have to come to the throne room tomorrow, you should meet your future wife, Maybe you should make an appointment with her around this damned Naggarond, do you want me to recommend some places with good scenery for you?" Malekith pressed his iron hand on Dacius' shoulder , he was in a particularly good mood and joked, he said jokingly and jokingly.

After saying a few more words, Dacius bowed and left, pushed open the black steel door and slowly exited the throne room.

The moment the black steel door closed again, the witch lamp in the throne room was instantly extinguished. Malekith rested his hands on the table, and his orange eyes kept staring at Ulthuan on the map.
