I am a god in another world

Chapter 559: The Mystery of Betrayal

"It's simple. I will leave you with the fifty cavalrymen I brought. They have all been personally trained by ladies and have rich theoretical and practical experience. They will assist you in rebuilding the entire army." Catherine naturally did not refuse. reason.

This may be a kind of training for them. They have no experience in organizing such a large-scale army, and they need to learn many things.

"That's all for now. If there are other issues, we will communicate and negotiate in time." Gavin nodded with satisfaction.

This kind of mutually win-win deal is the best to negotiate, because the interests of both parties are different. In many cases, not only do they not conflict but they complement each other.

Afterwards, everyone had to discuss the situation in Ivanso. Darnell, August and Erdan had very little room to intervene. Their origins determine that they are better at small-scale elite operations. , especially the paladins of the Hammer of Justice, let alone a war of this scale, many of them have never even seen dozens of paladins dispatched. What they mainly listen to is the analysis of Ms. Strategy's first choice, Catherine.

“This war between you and Ivanso is no longer just a matter of one city and one place, but involves the entire Dragon Coast, and involves all the cities and forces here.

If you lose the war with Ivanso, the mercenaries from those cities will surround you like jackals and eat all your bones.

If they win, it will be the moment when they are completely united. Not only will they not allow you to continue to attack the city, they will not even allow you to stay here any longer. This is driven by their common interests.

But at that time, whether it is war or peace, the initiative is in your hands. "Catherine, as the first choice of Ms. Strategist, is definitely not a boast. She looks at the entire situation with a gaze that is half a level higher than that of Catherine and Veranika. Although it has something to do with the changes in the situation, the analysis is indeed convincing. .

Gavin couldn't help but ask: "Zhan, how to maximize the benefits? What should we do with He?"

"Once you choose to fight, your migration journey will end here. After capturing Ivanso, you must push the army to the city of Boscu as quickly as possible. No matter what the cost, you must use the fastest speed to conquer this city. Take it down at speed.

Only in this way can we avoid being attacked from both sides and run this place for a long time.

Since you are a small force that swallows a big one, if you want to completely digest Boscu and Ivanso, you will need at least five years. During this period, you can only defend but not attack, because no matter how much you occupy, There is no way to digest the cities and land.

Under your strong pressure, all the cities on the Dragon Coast will break from their previous state of separation, enter a state of alliance merger, and form a coalition to fight against you.

If you want to annex the entire Dragon Coast, you must make a century-old plan, because by that time, the Kingdom of Cormyr and Sembia will never sit idly by and ignore it. Even if they do not directly send troops, they will secretly make trouble, because they both We don’t want an aggressive nascent empire appearing at close range.

All of this is based on your victory everywhere. Once there is a big defeat, it will be the moment when you all betray your relatives, because to the people of the Dragon Coast, you are out-and-out invaders. There is no mass base here, and your current allies may turn their backs on you at that time. "

Under Catherine's dismantling, everyone seemed to see the rise and fall of an empire over a century. This is the inevitable development trend of a force under normal circumstances.

"If there is peace, you will have to continue on the migration path as originally planned, but you can use war as a threat to exchange benefits within their tolerance from those forces who are eager to drive you away, such as a part of the population. Such as limited supplies and so on.

They will not allow you to retain the right to rule the city here, or even allow you to leave a military organization larger than a mercenary group or a caravan.

But you can choose local forces that are close to you and hand over the rule of Ivanso to them in exchange for certain privileges and benefits. "

After Gavin finished listening, he nodded repeatedly and said: "After listening to the lady's analysis, I have a clearer understanding of the way to go next. I know what I should do, and I am ready to surrender to the necromancer. , what do you think, madam?”

"This kind of personal situation is not easy to judge." Catherine conservatively replied, "It doesn't make much sense. Your previous plan was very complete. You will know if it is a trap or not."

"Okay, I'll go meet this death viper myself and see if what she exposes is the fangs or the deadly seven inches." Gavin no longer hesitated.

Although the two support teams are not large in size, they account for nearly half of them with extraordinary troops.

There is even a legend and two quasi-legends inside.

The hobgoblins of Blood Gorge City also selected three thousand elites, all pressed to the edge of the Giant Plain, and they could rush out with just one order from him.

In terms of military strength, they already have an absolute advantage, and their winning rate has completely shifted to them. It depends on how they fight to minimize their own losses.

Rather than a miserable victory, Gavin now pursues a glorious victory like the one that wiped out the Troll Kingdom.

I hope Grace is this opportunity for me.

The meeting place that Grace chose was Warehouse Hills, an abandoned warehouse not far from Ivanso.

Her way of delivering intelligence is very unique. After sending the summoned ghost to the designated personnel, it will be dismissed on the spot.

This means that there is no possibility of information leakage, and Gavin and his team have no way to pass the information back to Grace. They can only go to the designated place at the time she specified.

There is basically no tolerance for error. Any link that does not match will lead to the failure of this betrayal.

This is also the reason why Gavin and his team speculated that Grace might really betray. After all, as a trap, the success rate is a bit too Buddhist. After preparing for half a day, Gavin may not have received your information at all, or Gavin and his team simply ignored it.

Gavin secretly arrived at the designated location of the other party in advance, and carefully scouted the place inside and out, and did not find any abnormalities. This place is not even a good ambush site. There is no place to hide soldiers around, and there is no magic fluctuation.

The only thing that can be used is the teleportation tactic, sending a wave of elite soldiers to surround and kill Gavin.

But the problem is that if teleportation is not prohibited, it not only means that Gavin can also use teleportation tactics to send elite soldiers here in large numbers, but at worst, they will escape with one teleportation, and their plan will fail.

Or is that death viper really going to betray its teacher? Or is it to transfer itself and the elite soldiers away from the Conqueror Army, and they are going to use troops there?

But the undead have never been known for their reaction speed. The space they marched past is enough for them to return to the army with elite soldiers.

Their poisoning tactics are also useless. The car village where the Conqueror Army is located is shrouded by a temporary nine-ring fog barrier, which prohibits teleportation, invisibility, and flying. This is Raymond's handwriting. The fog barrier originally intended to be used in the Dwarf Statue City was used here first. In order to ensure the safety of the entire Conqueror Army, it is not too careful. As a safety measure, hundreds of thousands of spell materials are not a waste in this case.

As the agreed time got closer, Gavin put all the messy thoughts out of his mind, quickly armed himself to the teeth, and even activated his extraordinary body, which made it easier for him to sense the magic fluctuations. This was the only direction where the other party could make a move.

At the moment when the agreed time arrived, Gavin felt a wave of magic fluctuations in the direction of the abandoned warehouse. It was not too intense, and it was an extremely familiar negative energy.

A figure appeared out of thin air not far away. Just from the body shape, Gavin recognized it at a glance. It was Grace, the messenger of Ivanso who had contacted him several times.

No, it was not Grace herself, but a shadow clone condensed by negative energy.

This is projection.

No, projection is a misleading illusion performed at close range, mainly for reconnaissance or misleading. If she arrived in person, would it be necessary to do this?

Or is this a variant of projection that can be projected and controlled from a long distance?

Gavin did not dare to neglect it. After confirming that there was nothing else unusual, he quickly ran towards Grace's projection. This kind of spell usually does not last too long.

Although it was just a projection, Gavin read a lot of information from her body movements.

After finding that there was no one around, she was disappointed and relieved at the same time. She did not show too much anxiety, but when she saw Gavin running towards her, she became nervous and hesitant again.

When she was more than ten meters away from Grace's projection, Gavin stopped and his eyes fell on the foot of her projection involuntarily. It was an inconspicuous bluestone, and waves of magic power came out from it.

Obviously this was the other party's projection anchor point, which was a new type of spell that combined the preset phantom and projection.

Grace said with a complicated expression: "I didn't expect that the Lord would have the courage to come to the meeting. Aren't you afraid that this is a trap?"

"I didn't expect that you actually wanted to defect. Can I ask why?" Gavin is now basically sure that this is not a trap, but that Grace really wants to sell out Avonso and Arms.

"Arms has gone completely crazy. He has set up a huge transformation array in Avonso. Once he is at a disadvantage in the war with you, he will activate the transformation array and turn this place into a dead land. He is even preparing to roll up the death disaster in major cities on the Dragon Coast. This is an absolute devil's act. Even if he repel you, it will provoke the anger of the whole world. I am not interested in accompanying him to hell." Grace replied quickly.

Rather than persuading Gavin, it is better to say that she is firming up her heart to defect, because the second before meeting Gavin, she was still in a state of hesitation. After all, the risk of this matter is too great, and the benefits to herself are too small.

"So you don't know the true face of your teacher, Arms." Gavin sneered, not at all surprised by what Grace said.

For a normal person, even a necromancer, this practice is a self-defeating thing, but for a devil, it is profitable.

He can harvest tens of thousands of innocent souls and drag them into hell to become his precious wealth.

"The true face of my teacher?" Grace asked in surprise, "Isn't he a powerful necromancer? What else is there?"

"Do you know that the leader of the petrified lizard slave trade group that has been trading slaves with you is a Nadarun evil beast ghost in disguise?" Gavin asked instead of answering.

"Chuck is a Nadarun beast ghost in disguise? Is there any evidence?" Grace's expression was uglier than eating feces. Although she was in a projection state now, it contained her real soul. Except for the appearance that looked different from the real form, everything else was the same.

"The real projection is the evidence." Gavin directly played the real projection of killing the Nadarun beast ghost on the three-masted sailboat to Grace. As for whether she believed this evidence or not, that was her business.

"You infer from this that my teacher is an Akchaza beast ghost in disguise?" Grace's projection looked even uglier. If the speculation was true, it meant that she had been with a devil for the past few years and was an accomplice to the devil. She might have been marked with the devil's mark. If that was the case, once she died, she would not enter the normal death process, but like a devil, her soul would be directly dragged into hell.

"The original inference was only 30% to 40% possible, but now it has increased to 60% to 70%." Gavin did not threaten him, because he was an absolutely smart man. As long as he had enough information, he would make his own inferences, which was more deterrent than him.

"We'll know if it's true or not after we kill him." Grace's expression was full of ruthlessness, "Behind this abandoned warehouse behind me, there is a secret passage leading to the underground city of Evanso. I just found it when I was investigating the underground recently. No one in Evanso knows it except me.

I have buried the layout of Evanso's underground city in another place in advance. As long as you ensure my safety afterwards, I will not only give you the layout immediately, but also find a way to destroy the transformation array and the maze lock, and disable Arms's teleportation ability, so that you have time and opportunity to kill him completely."

Even if she surrendered, Grace did not have a change of heart, she was purely thinking about herself.

"If I agree to your conditions so readily, I'm afraid you won't believe that I will keep my promise." Gavin knows these selfish evil people too well. They don't even trust their parents except themselves, let alone a promise from an outsider. "I can give you another choice. I can help you cut off the mark of hell, but you must die once and be transformed into a real shadow state. In the future, you will be restricted by me and be loyal to me."

"How can I be sure that you have this ability?" Grace asked back immediately.

Gavin's words hit her heart completely. The biggest problem in the cooperation between the two sides is the problem of mutual trust. If this premise cannot be solved, their cooperation may not be able to proceed smoothly.

Not only can she not trust Gavin, but Gavin and his people may not be able to completely trust themselves as evil people.

On the contrary, the method Gavin said is more feasible.

She just doesn't want to be dragged into hell and face an unknown fate. She doesn't care much about whether she is in the human state or inferior to others.

As long as she is alive and in the material plane she is familiar with, she has the confidence to change everything with her own intelligence.

Moreover, it seems to be a good choice to serve under the famous conqueror, and there will be many opportunities to display what he has learned.

It seems that he had expected Grace to ask such a question, and he played a new real phantom for her. This is naturally about cutting off the soul of the six-armed snake demon and returning to the abyss, and transforming it into the six-armed snake demon Yeying.

He did not give Grace any chance to ask new questions, and directly launched the demon's true name summoning. The next moment, a huge figure appeared in front of the person and the projection.

The sword of the six-armed snake demon Yeying was faster than her mouth as always. The moment it appeared, the six swords had already slashed towards the projection of Grace.

"Stop, this is an ally." Fortunately, Gavin was prepared. When summoning the six-armed snake demon, the designated position was a little far away, and he stopped it immediately.

Even so, the six swords of the six-armed snake demon had already been placed on the neck of Grace's projection. If it was one second later, it would be enough to tear the projection into pieces.

"If it's not a fight, why did you call me here?" The six-armed snake demon glanced at Grace's projection with some disdain, and slid behind Gavin at a terrifying speed. She was not in the Night Shadow state now, but in the physical state.

Different abilities have different powers in different people's hands.

In the hands of Estel and Amanda, the ability to transform from virtual to real only gave them a chance to become human again, and Daphne was just a weapon to seduce Gavin.

But in the hands of the six-armed snake demon, it became an extremely sharp weapon, which directly brought her strength to a new level, because this ability gave her two completely different fighting methods.

In the physical state, she opened the extraordinary body, and she had an incomparable speed, even surpassing ordinary war horses. The faster the speed, the faster the killing speed, especially when facing miscellaneous soldiers.

In the Night Shadow state, she used speed to exchange for more damage reduction and spell reduction than the main battle tank, and the ability to attack was immediately improved to a new stage.

"Prove to her that I have the ability to cut off the devil's mark. As for wanting to fight, don't worry, it won't be long before you have the opportunity to harvest a large number of high-quality souls." Gavin still has the highest respect for this biggest trump card in his hand, because the combat effectiveness exerted under the two attitudes of positive and negative is still very different.
