Your war hammer is too fake

After discussing the details of forming a coalition for a while, the golden light in the messenger's eyes faded, and Kigal's will left the body of the skin lizard. Then the little thing turned around and left without saying goodbye.

"To some extent, the lizardmen are probably the least polite race in the world," An Jiyue said after watching the figure of Dazhanlan go away. "After all, etiquette is meaningless to a group of guys who are essentially robots."

"I'm more concerned about the information it revealed in its words," Morgan said with a frown. "It said that the high elves would try to stop us. Does that mean the other three Plague Arks will go through the Dawn Fortress? Why?"

"what why?"

"Why don't they take a detour? Since their purpose is to escape to the Antarctic wasteland, as long as they pay a little attention, the Dawn Fortress may not even realize that something has flown over." Morgan asked.

An Jiyue thought for a moment and said, "The Chaos Nest Clan should be worried about the Lizardmen. The Lizardmen in the Southland have destroyed two hatching facilities. With the predictive ability of the Magic Toad, it will be difficult for the Plague Ark to sneak away. It is better to take the shortest route and rush over at the fastest speed. Although the Lizardmen don't have a strong air force, they have Magic Toads."

"Right……"

Chapter 483: The Return of the Lord

In the Southland, somewhere north of Kosota and south of the Shady Territory.

The three-headed Plague Ark was wrapped in a thick cloud of disease, and flew slowly over the rain forest in a formation of one in front and two behind. Even without counting the trailing tendrils at the tail, the length of these biological warships was more than 300 meters, comparable to the size of a Nimitz-class ship. They had a plump spindle-shaped body, and in addition to the irregularly growing appendages, horns and festering tentacles on the surface of the body, there were clusters of thorn cavities distributed between the clusters of hard bristles, half buried in the dead skin, ready to go.

In addition to the "carrier aircraft" hidden in the body, these stinger cavities are the only means of attack for the Plague Ark. This unique offensive organ of the Hive is also found in the Structural Beedlings, but compared to the stinger cavities of the Beedlings, which are only as powerful as ordinary bows and arrows, the large stinger cavities on the Plague Ark can fire chitinous spikes the size of short spears, which are as powerful as the torsion ballistas of the Tyrells. The spikes used as ammunition can be either non-toxic or carry biological toxins.

Although each Plague-spreading Ark has different body details, the number of large spines on their bodies is fixed, always 21, evenly distributed on the entire body surface except for the head and tail, forming a three-dimensional firepower network. Of course, the Plague-spreading Ark's most important self-defense measure is always the Chaos Hive flying units it carries in its body, usually a mixed formation of flying wing bees and a certain number of "pufferfish".

As the masterpiece of the Grandfather God, the Plague Ark inherited all the functions of its prototype mother bee. It is a mobile incubation pool with a complete set of incubation facilities inside, and can also collect biomass and process it on its own. A specially modified tribe mother controls the entire biological warship. She is located in the deepest layer of the Plague Ark's bloated body, protected by layers of seemingly rotten but actually tough shells and hard skins, and her entire lower body is completely integrated into the flesh and blood base.

The last step in the incubation process of the Infectious Ark is to send this modified Clan Mother into its body. Once the Clan Mother and the biological warship establish a neural link, the two will merge into one. From then on, the Clan Mother can no longer leave the biological warship she belongs to. If the two are forcibly separated, the biological warship will go crazy and out of control, and the Clan Mother will die immediately.

Due to its large size, the Ark of the Infectious Disease can hatch all the Hive units except the upper nodes, even the Titan Bees that are as big as giants. As for the upper nodes, their birth method is very "traditional". They are conceived and born by the queens, so they cannot be mass-produced.

Most of the offspring born by the queen are male, the so-called "clan champions", and only a few individuals are female "clan mothers". In the hive society, only the queen and the clan mother can use psionic power. Clan champions have certain psionic potential, but they are not true psionicists. Of course, all this is in the past. After being corrupted by Nurgle, the Chaos Hive lost their psionic power, and the clan mothers and queens had to use magic instead.

The Queen and the Clan Mother are very easy to distinguish in appearance: their upper bodies are similar to those of human women, while their lower bodies are similar to spider structures. The difference is that the lower body of the Clan Mother has only six legs, while the Queen has eight. In addition, there are significant differences in the upper bodies of the two. The "hair" of the Clan Mother is an insect-like arthropod structure, and there is a small amount of chitinous carapace distributed on the upper body similar to that of humans; the upper body of the Queen is no different from that of humans in appearance.

In other aspects, in addition to stronger physical functions and psychic/magical powers, the most essential difference between the queen and the clan mother is fertility. The clan mother cannot reproduce, and only after a transformation like a cocoon rebirth can the clan mother advance to the queen, and only the queen can rule a nest clan.

Obviously, becoming the living control center of the Ark of the Infected Ark means losing the chance to advance to the Queen forever, and being bound to a biological warship for life. In the ancient times when the Hives had not yet escaped into the underground world, merging with the Queen Bee was a helpless and great sacrifice, because if they did not do so, the only fate of the Hives would be to be exterminated by the Faceless Ones. The strength of the ancient Faceless Empire was much stronger than that of the ancient Hives.

However, among the Chaos Hive, only losers who have lost or failed to win the favor of Nurgle from the beginning will be forced into the Plague Ark.

——Those who don't know enough about Chaos and Nurgle often have an illusion that although the Nurgle faction is indeed a little disgusting, the internal atmosphere is good and looks harmonious. Unfortunately, this is just an illusion caused by insufficient cognition, just like those travelers who only stay for a short time will think that Bretonnia is a beautiful and peaceful country. To put it bluntly, they have not stayed here long enough.

In order to win the favor of Nurgle, the intrigues between Nurgle demons and Nurgle followers are no less than their archenemies, the Tzeentch demons, and even more hypocritical. At least the Tzeentch demons are all shameless and cunning just by looking at their faces, while Nurgle demons are still quite honest and innocent in temperament, although they are smelly.

Although the Chaosbrood is a new race, it has only been a short time since its birth, but the palace fighting drama between the queens and the mothers born by the power of Nurgle is enough to be adapted into 7 episodes of The Legend of Zhen Huan. Needless to say, the winner of the struggle is a big deal, as for the loser...

"Quiet," Namtaru said softly.

The screams, wails, and curses echoing in the mind network suddenly stopped with the voice of the Nurgle Demon Prince. For An Jiyue, it had been just over a month since she last saw the Overlord of the Hive Clan. However, in Namtaru's cognition, a hundred years? A thousand years? Or ten thousand years?... She couldn't tell how long she had stayed in the Nurgle Garden, which had withered one-seventh of its size. After all, in the subspace, time and space were meaningless.

The former Overlord of the Brood is no longer a mortal, and Nurgle's overflowing love fills her body and soul. She has completely forgotten her past except for the two names "Namtaru" and "Micne". "Namtaru" is fine, it's her name. But who is "Micne"?

She once asked her question to the great grandfather god, but the kind figure just gently handed her a bowl of soup and told her not to worry about such an insignificant matter. She drank the soup cooked by the grandfather god himself and sensibly stopped asking about it. After all, her only and absolute master said it was just an insignificant matter.

After ascending to the position of Demon Prince, her first mission was to come to the mortal world and command the Chaos Hive to spread the glory of Nurgle. That being said, the Grandfather God strictly forbade her to approach the forest called "Shaded Territory", and only asked her to supervise the Chaos Hive to attack that place, but she herself was absolutely not allowed to approach.

"There are other incarnations of the power of destruction in the mortal world," Nurgle said to her at the time, "Look what he has done to me?" The Plague God raised his left hand and shook it, and the entire palm on his chubby arm was missing. "If you appear in front of him, my child, he will definitely do something even more cruel to you! Oh, no~"

Nurgle cried sadly. Even if a group of Nurgle spirits sang and danced around him, it couldn't make the true God feel better.

Recalling the cry of her grandfather, Namtaru became irritated. She wanted to do something to make Nurgle happy, but she was even more unwilling to disobey Nurgle's orders. With the Maelstrom still alive, it was not easy to allow a being of the level of the Demon Prince to descend into the mortal world, and she had no right to be willful.

Three Plague Arks are approaching enemy territory, and Namtaru's mission is to ensure that the Chaos Hive have completed all preparations for the attack, and then she must leave. The other three Plague Arks are flying at full speed to the Antarctic wasteland. In order to avoid interception by the Tzeentch faction, Nurgle has spent a lot of effort on intelligence interception, but this can only hide the Lord of Change for a while at most. The Chaos Hive must escape the three Plague Arks into the Antarctic wasteland before the master of the Crystal Maze can react.

To do this, the three Plague Arks had to force their way into the southernmost fortress of the Asur Southland. This was not easy, as she knew that the arrogant Caledonians were stationed there, assisting the local garrison in guarding the fortress. The dragon's flames plus the world-famous archmage of the Asur clan were enough to threaten the Plague Ark.

Namtaru's mission this time in the mortal world is to eliminate these threats.

Answer to the reader "A galaxy in the middle of the water":

During the Longbeard War, gunpowder and steam engines had not yet been invented (although China had already used firearms during this period), and the dwarves fought with pure cold weapons + runes, plus a small amount of black technology. It was not until more than a thousand years after the Longbeard War, in the year -420 of the Imperial Calendar, that the dwarves invented gunpowder.

Chapter 484: Close Investigation

At the same time, in the nearby rainforest.

Tayanan Wind Feather raised her head and leaned back against the backrest of the driver's seat. As Kaldorei moved, the torso of the reconnaissance "Saber Mk2" magic armor she was driving also leaned back, and the sensor array at the head was aimed at the sky - saying "head" may not be accurate, whether it is the pioneering Mk1 model or the Mk2 model that is being rolled out in small batches, these two magic armors do not have a head structure.

In other words, their heads are integrated with their torsos, and where the heads should be there is only a slightly protruding structure, and the main sensor of the magic armor is here.

The Sabre series has considered the prevention of biological and chemical attacks since the earliest Mk1 model, so its cockpit has been a sealed structure from the beginning, relying on a set of double filters to interact with the outside air. In the Mk2 model, Morgan further improved the design: an oxygen cylinder is built into the cockpit. When an emergency occurs, the driver can manually close the filter, completely isolate himself from the outside world, and then rely on the oxygen provided by the oxygen cylinder to continue activities for a period of time.

At this moment, Tayanan's magic armor shut down the filter, and she knew that her teammates lurking around her did the same. As a system unit, they were not afraid of corruption, but the biochemical technology of the Nest Clan was superimposed with the blessing of Nurgle. As the captain of this team, Tayanan was unwilling to take any unnecessary risks.

After approaching the Ark of the Infected with direct visual contact, Tayanan ordered the filter to be turned off to avoid being tricked in areas that were invisible to the naked eye. The oxygen cylinders used by the magic armor were the same model as those used by the flying fleet for high-altitude flight. The oxygen in them was enough for the Kaldorei to use for half an hour.

That is to say, they only had half an hour to complete this close observation mission. This operation was not only part of the actual combat test of the magic armor, but also to convince those old stubborn people who were reluctant to accept new things that the era of relying only on spears, bows and magic to fight was over.

In addition to four reconnaissance magic armors with enhanced silence and equipped with the "Shadow Veil" device, the flying ship also dropped a self-propelled suspended artillery that had been urgently modified and was not equipped with any artillery. This floating vehicle, which has not yet been officially named, was specially commissioned by King Evergreen to another Outer God to design for the Royal Court Army. It was originally intended to carry a light spear. For "certain" reasons, a large number of psychic devices were deliberately stuffed into the floating vehicle, which was supposed to be mainly built with magic technology, and the main weapon was changed to a 75mm projectile cannon.

Currently, this suspended self-propelled artillery has not yet been put into production, and only three prototypes have been delivered to the Royal Court Army. In order to be able to grasp the enemy's movements in real time, the projectile gun on one of them was removed and replaced with a long-distance communication matrix.

"Black Arrow 01, they are slowing down." The voice of a subordinate suddenly sounded in the narrow cockpit.

"I saw it," Tayanan said in a deep voice, "Black Arrow 04, keep observing."

Compared with the Mk1 type, which only realized the most basic and core functions of the magic armor and was more of a technology verification machine than a weapon, the Mk2 type was much more complete. It had an integrated communication matrix, but the communication matrix they were equipped with was only the size of an apple, and its communication range was no more than ten kilometers, which was incomparable to the version carried by the modified hovercraft waiting in the rear, which required eight people to lift it.

The magic projection suspended in front of the pilot clearly reflected the image captured by the main sensor of the magic armor. The three Plague-spreading Arks, flying in a formation of one in front and two behind, began to lower their flight altitude long before entering the observation range of the reconnaissance team. Now their abdomens covered with hard bristles are less than 20 meters from the ground. Considering the size of the Plague-spreading Arks, this altitude is almost the same as flying close to the ground.

The speed of the Plague Ark was not fast to begin with, and now it slowed down further until it was completely suspended in midair. Invisible magical winds surrounded the three fat biological warships, supporting their heavy bodies weighing nearly 20,000 tons. They stayed in midair motionless, and this state lasted for several minutes. No one spoke in the team channel. While keeping an eye on the remaining oxygen, Tayanan switched the observation mode from "standard" to "arcane vision".

Kaldorei turned the adjustment knob clockwise, and the main sensor immediately changed its working mode. The picture presented in the floating projection suddenly became bizarre. Tayanan looked at the picture that looked like dozens of barrels of ink mixed together but not yet mixed evenly. While enduring the dizziness and throbbing temples, she analyzed every detail in the image. After a moment, she turned the observation mode back to "standard".

"Black Arrow 01 notifies all units that a certain...strong magical reaction has occurred in the target's body." The nausea that came with the dizziness was lingering, but Tayanan used his willpower to overcome it. "This is true for all three heads."

Although different working modes of the main sensor are standard features, only a very few people are allowed to use its "arcane vision" mode, and Tayanan happens to be one of them. The sensor array used by the Saber Mk2 can help those without second sight "see" the activities of the wind of magic, but this will cause a considerable burden on the user's mind. After all, in Warhammer, anything that has anything to do with magic is bound to have nothing to do with the word "safe".

"Continue to observe," a voice that did not belong to the reconnaissance team appeared on the channel, "Stay alert."

Tayanan knew who it was. The communication matrix on the magic armor was connected to the hovercraft on standby in the rear, and the hovercraft maintained contact with Tal O'Sul through the long-distance communication matrix on board.

At this moment, the lord she served was watching from hundreds of kilometers away... and perhaps her father, Yrel Windfeather. Although the relationship between father and daughter had always been strained, now was clearly not the time to dwell on family issues.

The leader of the reconnaissance team was distracted briefly, albeit only for a moment. When she regained her focus, the three Plague-spreading Arks finally made a move: the long tendrils trailing behind them turned back and pointed their ends at the dense rainforest below the biological warship. They twitched violently, and then spewed out some kind of thin and thick brown liquid from the end of the tendrils, which at first glance looked very much like...

Tayanan clearly heard a dry heave coming from the communication channel. She was too lazy to tell who it was. As an experienced former falcon cavalryman and current magic armor driver, she had seen all kinds of animal feces when she patrolled with her father in the past, but compared with the scene in front of her, those things gave people such a different feeling.

The "snow" sea swallowed up a large area of ​​rainforest in the blink of an eye, drowning trees, bushes, insects, and animals hiding in them. All the plants and animals that came into contact with this stuff turned into a sticky fluid in the blink of an eye and merged into the "snow" sea. The "snow" sea expanded rapidly until it occupied an area nearly the size of ten standard football fields. The tendrils of the three plague-spreading arks plunged into this "ocean" together, devouring it voraciously.

"...Black Arrow Squad," Morgan's voice was heard again in the communication channel, "If all else fails, you should just retreat. No one will blame you. ...Yrel, you are not allowed to talk!"

Tayanan could not answer. As soon as she opened her mouth, her stomach would block her words with a turbulent protest, making it impossible for her to speak. So she could only express her attitude through actual actions, and her subordinates did the same.

The four magic armors with the "Shadow Veil" activated were still lurking in the same place. The only thing to be thankful for was that the observation position they chose was not too close to the target, at least the "snow" sea stopped expanding when it was still some distance away from them.

The Black Arrow team continued to observe the target. After absorbing a large amount of biomass, the hatching pool in the Ark of the Infected began to operate at full capacity, hatching the combat units of the Chaos Nest. Even with the Chaos Nest's rapid growth, it would take seven hours, seven minutes and seven seconds to complete the hatching of the first batch of nodes.

Before that, the oxygen in the magic armor would run out first, so after suppressing his nausea and observing for a while, Tayanan, who had been keeping an eye on the oxygen reserve, finally issued the order to retreat. Four reconnaissance Sabre Mk2s, whose silent performance was only mediocre, began to move towards the direction of the hovercraft.

As the captain, Tayanan was the last person to leave the observation position. She took one last look at the Ark of the Plague, and just as she was about to look away, a blurry black dot emerged from one of the Arks and flashed across the sky. When Tayanan wanted to observe further, the extremely fast black dot had already disappeared from her sight.

With his oxygen tank exhausted and his vehicle unable to fly, Tayanan had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​exploring.

Answer to the reader "A galaxy in the middle of the water":

I repeat, at the time of the Longbeard War, the dwarves had no gunpowder, no gunpowder, no gunpowder! The dwarves' gunpowder was not invented until -420 IC. Although the dwarves' firearms developed very quickly, and soon they had muskets and cannons (when Sigmar founded the Empire, the dwarves already had thunder gunners), the dwarves really had no gunpowder at the time of the Longbeard War. The "gunpowder weapon" you think of is called thunderfire, and that thing is made of freaking dimensional stone (its manufacturing method comes from a T-monster)! You said "it's mentioned in the military book", which military book and which page does it mention? I'll go check it out.

Chapter 485: The Staff of Seven Questions

Tal-o-Zhuer, the royal court meeting hall.

"The enemy's position and the tactics they are going to adopt are clear," said Morgan Linge, the Lord of the Crucible Court, the Evergreen King. "There is no doubt that these stinking rotten bugs have already issued an invitation."

When she said this, the Kaldorei girl looked up at the sky. Above the Kaldorei clan's capital, a flying fleet consisting of 11 frigates from three camps and 9 Meko-class ships was hovering motionlessly at an altitude of about meters above the ground, with falcon cavalry patrolling back and forth around them.

In addition to the two Eclipse-class frigates still undergoing training at Sky Shield Castle, and the two ships of the same type lying on the slipway of the Tianhe Shipyard, the most elite and powerful air combat forces under the command of the Lords of the Holy Scriptures were all assembled here: not only the Kaldorei's own falcon cavalry, but also the Anxi Army and West Territory sent air knights to reinforce. It must be said that root teleportation is a truly strategic-level capability. As for the Shuofang Army, they are about to launch an attack on the Spire City, so it is not convenient to withdraw forces for the time being.

The reinforcements sent by the allies each went to their own destinations. The Eagle Guards of the Anxi Army would act together with the Falcon Cavalry. Considering that the commander of this mixed fleet was already appointed by Kaldorei, for political reasons, the commander of the Sky Knight formation would be a senior lieutenant of the Anxi Army. Due to their combat methods, the Pegasus Knights of Westland would be organized into the battle sequence of the Army. After all, the Pegasus Knights were essentially heavy cavalry that could fly and were not suitable for air combat.

"Our army will launch attacks from both the air and the ground," Morgan turned his gaze away from the fleet above his head, "Defense? Those bugs should be defending! Only through decisive attacks can we seize the initiative."

After absorbing a large amount of biomass, the Chaos Hive fully demonstrated the potential of this race in terms of rapid military expansion: the lower-level nodes of the Hive are actually divided into normal version and fast-growing version. The hatching speed of the latter is so fast that it is measured in hours. Therefore, in theory, as long as there is enough biomass, the Hive can quickly hatch a massive army at an extremely astonishing speed; however, as the price of extremely fast hatching, the lifespan of this fast-growing version of the Hive is also very short, so short that it needs to be measured in days.

This is why the three-headed Ark of the Plague must fly to the vicinity of the territory of the King's Court of the Crucible before it can start to swarm. The tactics of the Chaos Hive are clear at a glance. They will continue to absorb biomass near the territory of the Kaldorei, create an army that can only exist for a few days, and then send them to carry out suicide attacks from which there is no return.

As long as the Ark of Plague is still floating over the rainforests of the South, this harassment will never end. What's worse is that the followers of Nurgle bring terrible pollution with them. Even if these disease-ridden plague insects are defeated, the land they have set foot on will suffer great damage, and this damage is almost impossible to recover naturally.

The woodland lords were confused by this tactic. The Chaos Hive's approach was more suitable for dealing with targets that refused to leave. The problem was that the Kaldorei were strong, and even if they sent 20,000 men to support Dawnhold, they would still be able to gain the upper hand in the main battle. They were not afraid of taking the initiative, so what on earth were the rotten bugs doing?

As the prototype of the Plague Ark, the flying speed of the queen bee was slow. As the Plague Ark's ability to resist attacks was further enhanced, its speed became even slower. Unfortunately, this thing was filled with powerful magic power, and it was impossible to hide itself. The fleet could easily catch up with them.

"I know what you are wondering about. This tactic is essentially to contain our army, and at the same time, it is also a bet that the three plague arks outside are strong enough to hold on until the other three plague arks successfully escape from the Southland," An Jiuyue said, "Although we cannot be predicted, the lizardmen and Asur of the Dawn Fortress can. Obviously, the plague pig believes that our army is enough to influence the battle situation in the Dawn Fortress, so this force must be contained here."

"But we have already sent out 20,000 warriors, and there are 10,000 dwarves," said Yrel, who had already put on a full set of new armor, with only his helmet held by his lieutenant. "What's the point of their containment?"

"For Dawn Fortress, conventional combat power may be enough, but what about high-end combat power?" An Jiyue looked at the man whom she and Morgan both believed to be the fleet commander, and asked softly, "A large group of extremely dirty and ugly bugs will rush over soon. Morgan can't leave at this time. And I'm leaving soon."

The champions born from the bleeding blades are highly respected in the Warhammer world. There is a realistic basis: although not all, the top handful of strong men, whether Sigmar, Aenarion or Grimbrindel, do have the ability to turn the tide of the battle by themselves. There are some people in this world who are so powerful that they can use the big hacks in their hands to smash all the exquisite tactics and kill the most elite legions.

"The frustration of the world is that even though I have guessed what the Plague Pig wants to do, I can't do anything about it," the governor continued when Yrel fell into deep thought, "Even if we know that sending troops to Dawn Fortress will involve great risks, we must do it. The giant bullfrog was right about one thing. We can't just sit there and watch the Plague Ark escape."

The Lords of the Holy Scriptures have no shortage of ordinary troops, but they are very short of Lords of the Holy Scriptures. Moreover, even among the Lords of the Holy Scriptures, not everyone can be called a top-level strongman, at least not Dustan, a T0 goalkeeper. At this point in time, the Lords of the Holy Scriptures all have important matters to deal with, and even Atum, the only one who was free, has gone to the Eight Peaks Mountain.

Settra's Tomb Army has just walked out of the Mad Swamp and is about to enter the Land of Death. In order to avoid exposing the ultimate weapon of root teleportation, the army of the Bronze City can only walk with other ribs. Most of the ribs of the city-states can hold on for a while and go home, while Ka-Sabai's ribs have to cross the entire Land of Death to get home.

The army was still on its way back, but a series of strange things that had happened recently in Eight Peaks Mountain forced Atum to go on a business trip. After saying goodbye to Settra alone, he fled into the yellow sand with a small number of troops... In fact, he did not go very far in total. He took out the moonstone given by Morgan and arrived near Eight Peaks Mountain by teleporting through his roots.

Big Guda was not worried that Settra would attack his army while he was away. He knew that the Undying Emperor would not do such a thing. After all, what Khemrikhara wanted was his sincere submission. If he turned against him and attacked him at this time, he would only bear a grudge for the rest of his life. And the undead of Nehekhara were no less vengeful than the dwarves.

An Jiyue considered whether to call Atum back temporarily, but gave up after thinking about it, and Morgan also supported her opinion. After all, the "rat man with golden fingers suspected to have appeared in the Bafeng Mountain area" was not much less serious than the successful escape of the Ark of the Plague to the Antarctic wasteland. The last time Atum popped up in the chat group, he said that he had locked the opponent's approximate location through his exclusive ability [Eye of Horus] in the transformed state.

The Jiedushi hated to fail at the last minute, even if she was not the one involved.

"Even if you are free, I can't let you go to the front line," Morgan said. "You are a wounded soldier who is still recovering from injuries. Why are you joining in the fun? Don't you think your injuries are serious enough?"

"In short," An Jiyue said, summoning his war codex and switching to visible mode, "Although I am unable to participate in the next battle, I will still contribute my strength to this battle."

The pages of the Holy Book of War were turning until the alchemist girl placed her hand on a certain page.

"After careful consideration, I have decided how to use this power... Come out!"

There were no sound or light effects. An Jiyue pulled out a slender white staff from the pages of the book out of thin air. At first glance, it looked very much like the staff that Gandalf used after defeating the Balrog and becoming a white robed man.

The white staff only appeared, and the grass in the royal court meeting hall abnormally bloomed with colorful flowers. An Jiyue handed it to Morgan, and when the latter took it, he felt an endless stream of infinite vitality surging from his body.

"The Staff of Seven Jie (second tone) is a supreme artifact forged from the Holy Scripture of the Supreme War, using one seventh of Nurgle's authority as its raw material." An Jiyue stared at the staff. "I'm only lending it to you temporarily. Don't lose it!"

King Evergreen also looked at the staff, and gently stroked the matte surface of the staff with his fingertips: "I thought this thing had to be green... or at least a similar color."

"Don't stereotype, the Tzeentch pink demon is still pink. Anyway, I wish you good luck in martial arts~"

"Go away!" Morgan waved his left hand vigorously. As for his right hand? He was holding a staff. "Aren't they just a bunch of rotten bugs? Watch me kill them!"
