Start a Core Pod

“I didn’t expect this thing to be used like this.”

After looking through the system information, Duanmuhuai finally knew how his experience as the God of Joy was added.

Well, take Euphilia as an example. After using this ability on Euphilia, the specific information she displayed is as follows.

 【Quick V Pearl +500】【V Feeling LV2】

 【Pearl of Desire +1000】【Extreme Poisoning LV1】

 【Pearl of Surrender +3000】【B Feeling LV2】

 【Pearl of Obedience +2000】【Obedience LV2】

 【Terror Pearl +3000】【Service Spirit LV2】

 Simply put, every time Duanmuhuai educates Euphilia, he will obtain corresponding currency-like orbs. And when the orbs reach a certain number, they will automatically increase the level of certain spiritual levels.

For example, the trait [Obedience] requires [Pearl of Terror] or [Pearl of Submission] to improve.

This is also normal. After all, if you want the other party to obey your orders, you must either use fear or comfort. To put it bluntly, it’s just the way candy and whip are made, there’s not much difference.

Of course, at first glance, this is similar to brainwashing, but strictly speaking it is different from brainwashing. This ability is more like materializing the other person's spirit. For example, Duanmu Huai knew that other people were afraid of him before, but how much Fear? That Duanmuhuai cannot be said.

But now, at least with a glance, he can tell whether your fear is LV1 or LV3... That's pretty much what it means.

 For another example, if there is a person who does not listen to Duanmu Huai at all, then the other person's obedience level will naturally be LV0.

If Duanmu Huai wants to improve his obedience level, he can use various means to make him fearful, increase his fear experience, and then wait for the fear experience to increase to a certain level. The original [Compliance LV0] will be upgraded to [Compliance LV1].

Of course, this is only part of it, the most important point is that Duanmuhuai himself must feel happy in the process.

 That’s right, to put it bluntly, this is actually a two-way upgrade process!

 In other words, Duanmu Huai not only needs others to feel happy, but he must also feel happy himself in order to be able to improve his level.

If you think about it carefully, it’s true. The God of joy, the God of joy, must himself be a person who enjoys himself.

If you don’t feel happy yourself, how can your believers feel happy?

This is completely different from the [God of Destruction] and [The Will of the Old God]. Both of these can be improved by acting on other things, but the [God of Joy] must require Duanmuhuai himself to do the same. Only when you feel happy can you improve. I have to say that this is really a troublesome thing.

This is also the reason why Zhen Ji Ling worked very hard before, but absorbed very little of the experience of the God of Joy - Zhen Ji Ling himself did nothing wrong, but the problem was that Duan Mu Huai did not feel too happy. Therefore, the experience value has not been rising, and as long as Duanmu Huai feels happy, the experience value will naturally rise quickly.

As for why I feel happy...well, that's probably what happened.

 It is somewhat fun to train a disobedient puppy.

Well, that's probably what happened.

So in the end, Euphilia obediently terminated the elf contract according to Duanmuhuai's request.

 But even so, she was somewhat worried.

After all, Euphilia would have no fighting ability at all. To be honest, one of the reasons why Euphilia was unable to make up her mind was that before the battle at the North Fortress began, what exactly did she do to abolish her martial arts? right. After all, Euphilia's air cover is also very important to the Union Army. Abandoning the Elf Contract at this time means that magic cannot be used, which can be said to have lost a lot of combat effectiveness.

However, Duanmuhuai didn't care. On the one hand, although Euphilia had abandoned the elf contract, Lumiere was still there. Unlike Euphilia, Lumiere is already a complete great elf - which is equivalent to a semi-pure subspace creature. Euphilia only lost the ability to use elf magic when she terminated the elf contract. Lumiere If you terminate the contract, you will die immediately.

By the way, this is also the deal between Lumiere and Duanmuhuai. As a great elf, Lumiere can directly control elf magic. After the battle, Lumiere's request is to let Duanmuhuai relieve himself. The Elven Contract.

After all, she had never thought about immortality. In Lumiere's view, she had already qualified after living for so many years. For her, the elf contract can be said to be a curse, not a gift.

 As for Euphilia...

 “Wouldn’t it be great if you went to learn the human magic system?”

Duanmu Huai doesn’t think it’s a big deal. Originally, elf magic is not just magic, but mainly depends on blood. But in addition, it also requires magic power, which is basically no different from the human magic system.

By the way, Agnesfia can actually learn the human magic system, but as a royal princess, Agnesfia dare not learn it - after all, this represents the rise of the human magic system, and those nobles who believe in elven magic are not crazy. It's strange.

 After all, as the saying goes, heretics are more hateful than heretics.

For nobles who believe in elven magic, magicians in the human magic system are no different from heretics.

It's absolutely ridiculous to use magic without any scruples even though you haven't signed a contract with the elves - and so on.

“I’m going to learn the human magic system...is that okay?”

 “Don’t worry, it’ll be okay.”

As long as we kill all the people with problems, the rest will be fine.

Although Euphilia was still a little worried, in the end she obediently did as Duanmuhuai said. Perhaps for Euphilia, it would be better to find something to do now than to sit idle here alone. "Owner."

Not long after Euphilia and Agnesphia left the room, Ogis walked in with the real genius.

 “Yo, what’s wrong?”

“Just now, Zhen Ji Ling has inquired about the news—just now, news has come from the front.”

"oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes. In fact, on the second day after the arrival of the transportation and supply team, the noble private soldiers had already set off for the Northland Fortress. Of course, on the surface, these nobles went there for reconnaissance, but Duanmuhuai knew that they were actually instigated by Algard to commit suicide. Of course, these nobles did not think that there were demons in the North, so they didn't care and even wanted to compete for the top spot.

 Now news is coming from the frontline......

 “Why, all those nasty guys are dead?”

 “That’s not the case, big brother.”

Zhen Ji Ling shook his head.

"I heard them say that the nobles' frontline troops have completely recaptured the Northland fortress, and they specially sent someone to report the good news!"

"………Aha?"

I have to say that this development was beyond Duanmuhuai's expectation.

"you sure?"

“Well, Karen specifically asked the guards and said that those people came back with smiles on their faces.”

 “This is really…”

I have to say that this was beyond Duanmuhuai's expectation. Could it be that the demons really didn't station themselves in the North Fortress, but just left? Shouldn't this be true? Or do they have other plans?

If this is the case, wouldn’t Yargard’s plan be doomed?

Although Duanmu Huai was a little surprised, he still had to do what needed to be done. Soon, early the next morning, the coalition army set off again. Except for some people who stayed to guard the commercial city, the others set off again, heading towards the Northland Fortress. direction forward.

The distance from the Commercial City to the Northland Fortress is not that far. Strictly speaking, even if the army marches in, it only takes three or four days. Of course, to be on the safe side, Duanmu Huai and Agnesphia naturally fly to the fortress first. Go check out the situation.

"………what do you think?"

 “Ugh…I think it looks like there’s nothing wrong with it.”

Duanmuhuai was flying in the air, looking at the North City Fortress in front of him - this was a huge fortress built between the mountains. From the outside, most places were still intact, but some walls showed signs of collapse and damage. . Under the howling cold wind, you can clearly see soldiers holding torches, patrolling back and forth.

"what do you say?"

 “You want me to say?”

Anisphia stretched out her hand and put it in front of her eyes, staring at the castle carefully.

 “I don’t see anything wrong...it seems like everything is normal...”

"This is actually very abnormal. Will those nobles be so peaceful?"

Duanmu Huai also activated the "Quality Confirmation" and glanced around. At least he could confirm that the soldiers had no signs of being brainwashed or manipulated. This is also another use of "Quality Confirmation". After all, the main ability of "Quality Confirmation" is to show the opponent's mental state, so if these soldiers have symptoms of being brainwashed, manipulated, or coerced. Then Duanmuhuai can be observed through "quality confirmation".

Of course, there is a downside, that is, you will be forced to know things you don’t want to know.

For example, Duanmu Huai doesn't want to know why the strong man standing on the city wall has the [A feeling LV3] sign... He doesn't want to know this kind of thing for the rest of his life.

“And the demons will really leave this place alone?”

 Anisphia thought for a moment, and then gave her answer.

“Maybe they really don’t care? After all, demons can fly, why do they have to fight with the enemy in this fortress?”

　　“It’s not unreasonable for you to say that……”

Hearing Anisphia's answer, Duanmuhuai frowned and thought for a moment.

“In short, let’s go back and report the situation first. As for the rest, we’ll decide when the time comes.”

 Subsequently, Duanmuhuai made a decision.

I went out to buy groceries today. I went out at 1 o’clock and didn’t come back until after 3 o’clock. I was so exhausted that I bought a bunch of groceries…
