I Captivate the Player

"In a few months, the northern border will be engulfed in flames of war. If you fall into the hands of the orcs, you will surely die. According to tradition, the heads of nobles will be chopped off by orc axes and used as chamber pots."

As she spoke, she turned around and gestured with her hand, a chamber pot with such a big head.

"As a nobleman, you should leave the northern border as soon as possible. The nearby lords are transferring their property. Although you have been kicked by the donkey, you will not continue to be stupid."

Chen Ye knew very well that under her indifferent appearance, there was a hot and arrogant heart.

She felt that Andocher was dangerous and wished she could leave.

Chen Ye sighed slightly, if possible, of course he didn't want to stay.

But now even if he wanted to leave, it was impossible.

He said with a smile: "The mere steel maid is not qualified to criticize me. In any case, as an honorable nobleman, I will not leave my territory, Alisa."

The peach-haired maid was silent at the door, staring at Chen Ye for a long time, but it didn't work.

She could only turn around and leave in the end.

"I'll throw your bed out of the castle, my lord."

Chen Ye watched her leave from the door, picked up the black tea from the table, and sighed again.

The orc invasions to the south basically happen every few years, but in the face of powerful imperial reinforcements, the orcs will be repulsed every time, and may even be counter-suppressed.

However, today is different from the past. The emperor's health is deteriorating, and the empire is becoming more and more chaotic. When the emperor dies and the empire's large-scale civil war really begins, there will be no reinforcements on the border.

The orc army will then go south and destroy the North completely, leaving nothing behind.

The future is almost doomed.

People here have no hope.

Chen Ye is more aware of the horror of this winter than anyone else, and just like Alisa said, he can leave the northern border like many lords in the northern border and go to a rich and warm place to spend the rest of my life.

Although the royal family of the empire will have civil wars, most of the nobles can remain neutral, no matter how bad it is, according to the tradition of the empire, nobles will not easily die in their own wars.

Chen Ye knew very well that Alyssa really wanted to go away with him, but...he couldn't go away.

The body he is using now is not a very human body, but an alchemy puppet.

Baron Samuel's alchemy is not simple, it is actually a secret technique handed down from ancient times.

He can refine a puppet that is [-]% similar to a living person, and creates a special existence similar to a robot by putting the soul or a part of the soul into the puppet.

Alchemy Golem.

It is said that ancient alchemists often used this method to extend their lives, because even if the puppet is damaged, the soul will not be lost as long as it is backed up, and it can be perfectly reborn as long as the puppet is repaired or replaced.

Now, Chen Ye's body is not a living person's body. In theory, he will not grow old, die, or get sick.

A seemingly perfect body.

However, things are not that simple.

After Chen Ye seized Baron Samael's body, he soon discovered the real reason for Samael's death.

It turned out that an unknown error occurred in the energy extraction part of the alchemy circle hidden in the underground chamber, resulting in less and less magic power in the alchemy circle, and the alchemy puppet needs the continuous supply of magic power from the alchemy circle to survive.

Samuel was dead, and he was dying.

"A high-level alchemy circle composed of tens of thousands of runes will not only require a lot of financial resources, but will also take several years to rebuild. I have no way to quickly redo one."

There was a slight bitterness on his face.

"Alyssa, sorry, I can't leave."

Chen Ye frowned and raised his teacup. He mustered up the courage to take a sip of black tea tentatively, then immediately shivered and put it down again.

"really......"

But he would rather fight the orcs than have the courage to finish this "black tea". Alisa didn't put weird things in it this time, such as moss and bark...but she did it again Mix sugar and salt.

The most frightening thing is that she didn't do it on purpose.

Usually, Chen Ye would secretly pour out the tea.

But today is different.

After hesitating for a while, he still took a deep breath and drank the black tea in a hurry.

"It's so exciting..." Chen Ye felt sour all over his body.

Then, he started to read.

This book is about the old-fashioned story of a hero saving the beauty. Normally, he would not find it interesting, but today, he carefully read every page and every sentence of the book, and finally, put it Carefully put it back in the bookcase.

Chen Ye's eyes swept across the desk and bookcase, and he put every item in the study in place.

Finally, he came to the mirror and made his clothes extremely neat, and lay down on the bed with a calm expression, closed his eyes, and waited for the second death with a peaceful mind.

Yes, the time when the magic runs out,

It's today.

He had written the letter to Alisa, and she would find it in the morning.

"When you read this letter, I have already left this world and embraced the God of Death again."
