Your war hammer is too fake

It would take a while for a large ship like a warship to be built. Not to mention the time required for shipbuilding, it would take too long for the wood to dry in the shade. However, large sampans like sampans were everywhere, but they were only for emergencies and could not be used for a long time. Currently, the 20,000 Anxi troops under Yin Siran, who were deployed along the Xueshui River, relied on sampans to transport supplies.

An Jiyue's first plan was to use strong air currents to blow the boat up. To do this, she added extra wings to the sides of the experimental boat and redesigned the entire sailing equipment. Since the girl personally carried out the modification, the first experimental boat was modified in the morning and tested at noon. By the afternoon, the plan was rejected...

The test results showed that although this design was technically feasible, its maneuverability was terrible. Unless a specialist was equipped to perform minute control and adjustment of the airflow in real time, the stability of this design was extremely poor. During flight, it would shake more violently than a person with late-stage Parkinson's disease, and the hull would become seriously unbalanced if it flew a little faster.

After the first plan was shot down, the second plan was quickly put into production. An Jiyue designed a set of formations that would automatically release [Soaring into the Clouds] when in operation, lifting the airship. After getting a second walking boat—the previous one was broken into pieces during the test, more than an unbreakable alliance—for testing, Plan No. 2 died even faster than Plan No. 1: the flight stability of this plan was high enough, but it also created new problems. Once it encountered air currents during flight, even the weakest air current would cause the airship to lose control of its attitude.

The Taoist priest himself did not have this problem when he used the cloud-riding technique because the flying speed was fast enough to cover up this problem. The flying ship was different. It could not fly too fast because the hull was held up by the clouds and there was no connection between the two in any sense. Once it flew too fast, the hull would easily slide out under the influence of inertia as long as the flying ship made a slight maneuver.

Due to the almost non-existent flight control system, the cloud could not always remain stationary relative to the hull. Once the relative position of the two changed, the deviation of the hull could hardly be corrected unless there was a highly skilled Taoist priest on the ship who used magic to forcibly correct it. Therefore, the flying ship of Plan No. 2 could only fly at a snail's pace.

Moreover, the larger the ship, the slower it moves, because the larger the ship, the greater its mass and the greater its inertia.

If you drive too fast, it will easily flip over, and if you drive too slow, it will also cause trouble. An Jiyue discovered during the test that in order to bear the weight of the hull and the cargo on board, the clouds that hold up the flying ship are not flat like when the Taoist priests perform the soaring clouds, but round spindles. This results in Plan No. 2 having the characteristics of an airship in many aspects, such as being afraid of strong air currents, and being more afraid of air currents than airships.

After rejecting two plans in succession, An Jiyue consulted a lot of literature and consulted Dustan, and then came up with a third plan.

The new solution is much more technically complex and advanced than the previous two.

[Group leader #安朁月: Thanks to Fuzirek. Although I don’t know how this guy did it, his story gave me inspiration. ]

In Warhammer: Medieval, a thousand years ago, a genius wizard named Fozzrik appeared in the Empire. Fozzrik was not only a powerful spellcaster, but also an outstanding architect. In view of the fact that most of the Empire's territory was covered by dark and dense forests, and cities could only be connected by dangerous roads, this genius who was ahead of his time came up with a bold idea: if the cities of the Empire could all fly, wouldn't that solve the problem?

Then this guy, whose technical and mobility were off the charts, actually went to the badlands and built a flying castle...

This flying castle has been flying in the sky for a thousand years since it was built. It has traveled all over the world and occasionally landed on the ground. The magic puppets in the castle will come down to collect various magic treasures, and then the castle will rise again and continue this long journey. According to the prophecy, the powerful spell that Fuzrek cast on the castle will soon run out of energy, and it will return to the badlands, back to the place where it was built to recharge.

An Jiyue was not interested in the treasure in the castle, she was interested in the castle itself. If she could enter the castle, she might be able to analyze the technology it used and recreate the miracle that Fuzrek created thousands of years ago.

After all, something that cannot be mass-produced is of little use, unless it is called Unit-01.

In short, according to some gossip, the design of the flying castle does not only use a single magical wind, but all eight magical winds. By harmonizing different magical winds, Fuzrek was able to keep his masterpiece flying in the sky for a thousand years. Considering that the White Tower of Hoth, the wizard kingdom of Safri on the toilet seat, can also fly into the sky, An Jiyue believes that this gossip is more or less credible.

The girl consulted Dustan about this matter, and the latter said that according to the false memory given to him by the War Codex, "Dustan" did see the White Tower of Hos flying into the sky more than once when he was still in Safri. In fact, this city of wizards would fly into the sky to celebrate every important festival or celebration.

In theory, humans do not have outstanding magical talents and cannot use advanced magic that requires the coordination of the eight magical winds. However, there are always some extraordinary beings in the human race, whether it is Fuzrek, the Amber Mage Katang, or the Great Necromancer Nagash, there are always some geniuses among humans that even the arrogant Asur would be amazed by.

An Jiyue doesn't think she's a genius, she's just a cheater. Despite this, she's still able to do something that only the greatest geniuses can do. After two weeks of repeated experiments, she successfully made a chair float.

By means of anti-gravity.

After delicately blending the eight magical winds, An Jiyue used magic to achieve the effect of anti-gravity. When the armchair floated up, she knew she had done it. The crude, primitive but effective first-generation practical flying ship would soon appear in Xuanshui's factory.

However, the current situation does not allow her to continue to stay in Xuanshui to invent. According to the report of the school marquis stationed in Altdorf, the ticket holders of the empire have gathered in the capital of the empire and are preparing to hold a meeting to elect a new emperor.

It's time for her to leave.

The author says:

Author's words: PS: Three chapters of preparation, two chapters of transition, and then it's time for the chaos in Aldolf.

Chapter 144: The Recent Situation of Group Members

This is the general situation of the Lords of the Holy Scriptures at the moment.

Dustan Falcon, a high elf mage specializing in Heavenly Magic, a notorious "monkey lover" in Ulthuan, a man who only wants to penetrate the Knights of Bretonnia, is currently leading a three-tribe coalition with a total of about 4,000 troops in a passionate battle with the Yankees in Fort Kovang. As soon as An Jiyue left there, a group of Huns who came out of nowhere came to attack. Due to the large number of opponents, the current situation is temporarily in a stalemate.

[Dustan Falcon: ←_←Don't worry, I didn't attack in order to control casualties. Once the enemy is weakened enough, I will kill them all. Also, the cannon is really useful. ]

Fort Kewang is currently surrounded by more than 20,000 Yankees, but the wizard said there is no need to worry. Since Fort Kewang has an anchor point, there is no shortage of supplies and the lost personnel can be replenished immediately. Unless the defenders are quickly overwhelmed by absolute force, once it falls into a tug-of-war, even the endless number of Chaos Demons will not be able to outlast the group members.

The whole battle started with a surprise attack. On the night of the battle, the Hun soldiers once attacked the city wall with flying claws, but were quickly driven back by the heavily armored Zhongjun Camp and Tiaodang Camp. The two sides fought fiercely all night, and the Huns, who suffered heavy losses, could only retreat unwillingly. This was the only time they attacked the top of the city in the entire battle.

The two teams of general cannons deployed by An Jiyue in Kewang Castle performed bravely in the first night's battle. They killed four Chaos Giants in a row and forced back a Chaos Dragon. Both sides are now in a situation where the defenders are insufficient and unable to counterattack, while the Huns outside cannot break in. Both sides can only stare at each other across the city wall. Of course, this stalemate will definitely not last too long. Dustan said that he will counterattack after the enemy is fully weakened.

Compared to Dustan, a certain dwarf lives a much more peaceful life.

Barel Magichammer, the leader of the Emberstone Clan and the King of Plateau Fort, is currently busy training the army and supervising the production and distribution of new equipment. His main job is to send rangers deep underground to investigate the mysterious underground world. In order to lure out the Brood, Barel even deliberately set up several outposts that were too forward, but the Brood were not fooled at all.

While deliberately searching, the Rangers of Plateau Castle had come into contact with the Hive several times. These giant insects were as aggressive as the Lords of the Holy Scripture had imagined, but somehow, there had been no credible reports of the discovery of the Hive's upper nodes, as if all these high-level insects were dead.

The overall stance of the Lords of the Holy Scriptures is to eliminate the Nest Clan, or at least to cripple them and render them harmless. As long as these bugs exist, Plateau Castle will always be under threat. However, even An Jiyue has no idea how to do this.

[Barel Magic Hammer: It just so happens that what I have the most right now is time, so I just need to spend some time with them. When the Plateau Fort Legion's comprehensive firearms reform is completed and all kinds of Yakesi's new toys are in place, um...]

[Group leader #An Jiyue: Just take it easy. ]

Compared to the above two group members, Xiao Yiyue is probably the one who has been living the most plainly in recent times. Due to the special environment of the haunted forest, this place will have a constant stream of natural undead. Although they are basically low-end stuff like skeletons and zombies, there are too many of them, and they can't be killed at all——

Unlike the general worldview, no matter how damaged the body of the undead in Warhammer is, even if it is burned to ashes and then doused with holy water, and finally found a Mor priest to redeem it, as long as the soul still exists, it can be resurrected, and the lower the level of the undead, the easier it is to resurrect. How easy is it? Whether it is the vampire family or the Tomb Kings, they all have the ability to resurrect units on the spot during the battle. After a high-intensity battle, it is common for the undead army's small ribs to be resurrected seven or eight times per person.

In a place like the Haunted Forest, where there are many talented people and beautiful scenery, no matter how many times the undead are knocked down, they will revive again after a while and stagger up again. If it weren't for the numerous beastman tribes living in the Haunted Forest, plus those rampant and indifferent ogres, the undead would have been overrun with disasters long ago.

Of course, all of the above is now in the past. When Xiao Yiyue led her first army out of Jingning after a short preparation, the distorted ecology of the haunted forest that had been maintained for countless years began to collapse. Being killed by the system unit means real death. Xiao Yiyue and her army gave these tortured souls relief. Coupled with the order field that expanded with the anchor point as the center, at least the dark forest land near Jingning has undergone significant changes visible to the naked eye in a very short period of time.

According to Xiao Yiyue's own estimation, she has already physically saved all the undead souls in thousands of square kilometers of land. She is too lazy to count the exact number, because there are no points to be gained anyway. During this process, the Shuofang Army also killed a number of beastmen and chaotic mutant creatures, earning tens of thousands of points for their own Jiedushi.

At the current rate of progress, she would be able to clear all the 10,000 square kilometers of land covered by the Order Domain by the end of the year at the latest. As for the attack on the Dragon Islands, there was no rush. The wild lizardmen on the island could be attacked at any time. An Jiyue was not in a hurry to get the hatching pool above anyway. Xiao Yiyue was more inclined to consolidate the foundation first before taking action.

After communicating with the three group members one by one in the chat group, An Jiyue and Jin Zhifan embarked on the journey to Altdorf. Because it was a secret operation, the girl consciously avoided crowded places. She set out from Xuanshui, and drove the cloud across Sanhe Prefecture, the eastern area of ​​the Border Prince Territory, the Black Mountains, and entered the land of the former Thor Territory.

This is a barren land, currently under the trusteeship of Wissen. From 1707 to 1712, about years ago, the legendary orc warrior Gorbad Ironclaw launched an unprecedented WAAAGH! ! He led the greenskin army to invade the Empire from the Blackfire Pass. Several provinces of the Empire, including Solland, were destroyed by the greenskins in this catastrophe. Eldred, the Elector of Solland at the time, was killed by Ironclaw, and the whereabouts of the Runefang he held were unknown until it was found by a group of dwarves many years later.

This Runefang is currently held by Marshal Rick, the Empire's first swordsman Kurt Helberg. Since it was found, since the original Elector family of Sol Territory has been exterminated and even the province itself no longer exists, its ownership has always belonged to the Emperor of the Empire, and the Emperors always give it to their most trusted generals.

An Jiyue stayed in a hotel that only received nobles for one night in Phaidol, the capital of the former Thor Territory, which was probably the only decent city in this barren land. The girl used magic to conceal her appearance. Now in the eyes of others, she was a "slightly plump" lady in her early 40s, with facial features like a Tyrell or Estalia, while Nishikori Shigeru was a heroic female swordsman. This was a good way to avoid some unnecessary troubles. After all, not everyone had the courage to challenge a Tiger tank.

After a night's rest, An Jiyue led Jin Zhishi out of Phaidol at dawn. After leaving the sight of other passers-by, the girl immediately flew into the sky on a cloud.

Compared with Solland, which has poor land and a small population, Wissenland is almost the same except that it has a larger population. Baroness Emmanloli, the Elector of Wissenland and the old lover of Kadahammer, lives in Nuln all year round and never returns to Wissenburg unless necessary. An Jiyue also has no interest in Wissenburg, which has a weak presence, so she came directly to Nuln. As the most important industrial center of the empire, most of the empire's firearms and steam engines come from this city.

If time was not tight, the girl would actually be interested in strolling around here. If the most notable feature of Nuln is the chimneys everywhere, it must be the ubiquitous steam engines. The people of Nuln will use steam engines as power wherever possible, as if they cannot show off their status as an industrial city if they don't do so.

This is a city where every floor tile exudes a steampunk flavor. While looking for a suitable hotel, An Jiyue discovered that even the snack stalls along the street used old steam engines that were used for who knows how many times to heat up the food.

After another night's rest as usual, An Jiyue finally arrived in Aldorf.

The author says:

Author's words: PS: I'm so full of gossip about Girls' Frontline 2 recently... Fortunately, this book only uses William and Paradis as villains, and does not involve those, um, I don't want to be too rude, those shameless robot bitches.

Chapter 145: Probing Strategy

Karl Franz was an important man.

When the future emperor was just a newborn baby, his father Leopold took his family out for a trip, and they were attacked by beastmen in the wild. The accompanying Reik Guards fought desperately, but they were outnumbered. Just when the emperor and his family were about to die at the hands of the Split-Toed, a group of wood elves suddenly appeared, knocked down all the beastmen with a rain of accurate arrows, and then disappeared as quickly as they came, without any intention of dealing with the imperial people.

Ever since the treeman elder Adanhu sacrificed himself to purify the soul of Ariel, who was once corrupted by black magic, the wood elves have ushered in a new era - they call it the Season of Redemption. From that time on, warriors of the Asrai clan often haunt the world with the help of the roots of the Oak of Time under the guidance of prophecies, saving or killing a specific person, and intervening in the critical moments of the long river of fate in their own way. For this reason that outsiders could not understand, they saved Karl Franz when he was a baby.

Even after the Season of Redemption ended in 2007 and the Season of Destruction began, this mysterious style continued. In the original history, two years later, in 2504, Carl would do something unimaginable - he would personally enter the Athel Loren Forest to ask for help from the wood elves.

Anyone who knows something about the Asrai, whether he is a human, a dwarf, another elf, or a time traveler, will think that the emperor must be crazy. For outsiders, under normal circumstances, even just approaching the Athel Loren Forest is an extremely dangerous act. A typical example of this is Glengni Gold Seeker.

In 1350 IC, in order to open up a new trade route between Nuln and Parraon of Bretonnia, this dwarf led a dwarven expedition over the Grey Mountains and prepared to go to the Knight Kingdom. The route he planned would pass through the northern edge of the Athel Loren Forest, so Glengni deliberately avoided the dense magical forest and traveled along a valley path at the foot of the Grey Mountains. In order to avoid angering certain people, Glengni also ordered his men to use only dead trees to make torches and bonfires.

Even so, the Wood Elves were not prepared to let the Dwarves escape alive. Without any prior warning, an army of Wood Elves suddenly appeared and attacked. In order to buy time for the civilians in the expedition and the Elder Longbeard to escape back to the Fortress, Glen Gurney led his warriors into the shadowy forest, and all of them died in the battle (Note 1).

There are countless examples of this. Sometimes, the Wood Elves will hold a banquet, treat a group of ogre mercenaries who strayed into the forest with fine food and wine, and then secretly guide them to crash into a Skaven nest in Bretonnia and raze it to the ground (although they will be paid a commission afterwards); but in most cases, simply appearing near Athel Loren may bring disaster.

It is conceivable that when Cal was about to enter Athel Loren to seek help, this decision would cause a huge wave of opposition. Of course, what was more shocking than this was the reaction of the Wood Elves: not only did they not harm the Emperor, they even agreed to the Emperor's proposal to join forces and organize a coalition to fight against the Beastmen.

An Jiyue didn't know what Ariel, the Queen of Mages, one of the two demigods who ruled the Asrai clan, had predicted, but one thing was certain, the Wood Elves had realized the approach of the End of Time, and through the prophecy they had noticed Carl's key role - maybe Green Chaos already knew that Carl was Sigmar's human form.

Standing on the attic of the hotel and looking down, the girl could just see Karl, who was not yet the emperor, riding an armored warhorse and walking through the narrow streets surrounded by a team of Rick's guards. This attic would be the girl's residence for the near future. The Jinyiwei sent to Altdorf had rented it.

Aldorf currently has two school marquises and fifteen ordinary Jinyiwei, led by a centurion. As one of the six types of heroes that can be recruited by An Zhendan, all school marquises are elites among the Jinyiwei. Since the title of "school marquis" does not correspond to a specific official rank, the school marquises recruited by An Jiyue have different levels, the lowest is only a trial centurion, and the highest is a pacification envoy like Luwu. Of course, An Jiyue can also directly specify the rank of school marquis he wants.

Although the size of their official rank does not affect their abilities.

"General Jie," the captain came over when An Jiyue was observing Karl, "In the past half month, the brothers have secretly dealt with three waves of assassins, all of whom were targeting this Crown Prince Karl."

"If you want to claim credit, wait until Karl ascends the throne before you speak," the governor said calmly, "Anything else?"

"I am definitely not someone who only cares about fame and fortune!" The captain hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "The commander-in-chief's status is so noble, let us do the testing. The commander-in-chief is worth a lot of money, we must not take risks."

"What are you saying? Haven't I done enough risky things?" An Jiyue waved her hand. "Besides, it's useless for you to go. That thing... is not something you can handle. Only I can go in person for this matter. No need to say more."

An Jiyue went to Altdorf in person at this time just to gank the changeling. In the girl's opinion, this guy is much more dangerous than the two-headed old hen, the chief demon with only appearance, and its movement trajectory is always unpredictable.

Except for special time points like Carl's coronation, it is not easy to catch the transformation spirit.

Today is the first day of the Electoral Conference, and the ticket holders who are eligible to elect the emperor are preparing to go to the palace. According to the current Electoral System, there are a total of fifteen ticket holders in the Empire, including ten Electors, the Grand Priest and two Grand Chanters of the Church of Sigmar (Note 2), Grand Yurik of the Church of Yurik, and the halfling representative of the Mutt Territory. Among them, only ten Electors have both the right to vote and the right to be voted, and the remaining five only have the right to vote.

Yes, that's right, the Church of Sigmar alone has three tickets.

"The actors are all here," An Jiyue signaled the centurion to leave with her eyes, "and it's time for me to go to my seat and enjoy this good show."

In the original history, the changeling not only assassinated Carl's father, the former emperor Leopold, but also assassinated Reikland's traditional ally, Maximilian von Koenigwald, the Elector of Ostland, and replaced him. Although Leopold's assassination still happened as in "history", after directly or indirectly contacting so many time travelers, An Jiyue believes that it is entirely possible that the butterfly effect caused the person who was replaced to change.

In order to avoid catching the wrong person, it is necessary to conduct investigations and tests in advance. The disguise of the changeling is indeed perfect, but the girl also has her own special skills to catch this extremely dangerous demon.

In short, An Jiyue prepared a star iron dagger engraved with the Rune-of-Daemon-Slaying. This thing was specially commissioned by Rune Lord Deljim Fireforger to forge when she was still in Plateau Castle. The latter complained that this thing with only an ordinary rune inlaid did not reflect his excellent craftsmanship at all.

After all, this thing is not for fighting, so why is it so easy, An Jiyue thought. Her plan is simple. She will sneak into the People's Hall where the ticket holders hold meetings with this dagger, and then hit everyone one by one, even Carl. If the wound is just a little bleeding, then it is a human, otherwise it is a changeling.

Anyway, An Jiyue is also good at [Healing Spells]. (He turns his head guiltily

This is also the reason why An Jiyue came here in secret this time and carefully concealed her identity the whole time. After all, if she slashed the most important figures of the empire one by one...if this matter were to be exposed, the consequences would be no less than if the entire human empire knew the little secrets of the 13th Primarch, such as the Second Empire.

"This had better go smoothly," the girl said to herself, "or I'll just have to flip Altdorf over."

……

Note 1: I first saw this story in the seventh edition of the Dwarven Army Book, and later in the chronology of the eighth edition of the Wood Elves Army Book. When Warhammer was updated to the eighth edition, GW changed a lot of things, such as the origin of His Majesty the Deathclaw, but this incident remained the same.

Note 2: Although the Arch-Chant is a mass-produced lord in both desktop and Total War, there are actually only two people with this position in the background setting.

Chapter 146 Verification (Part 1)

Altdorf, Imperial Palace, People's Hall.

"Face it, kid. The days of Rick leading out the Emperor are over."

The speaker was Boris Todbringer, Elector of Middenheim. The Wolf Lord had an unpleasant smile on his face. "Don't get me wrong, 'I decide.' Your father was a very good Emperor. But now it is Middenheim's turn to be the capital. Altdorf and the smoky den to the south have benefited enough from the position of the Emperor's throne. I say it is time for my city to enjoy the benefits."

In the voting that just ended, as one of the two candidates for the emperor, Boris received eight votes, while his rival Karl only received four votes. The reason why the two sides only had twelve votes in total was because the three votes of the Sigma Church were all abstentions - the Sigma Church obviously could not vote for a believer of Yurik, and Karl's reputation was not good at the time. The current high priest "The Ruthless" Walkerma had always been very dissatisfied with Karl's playboy style.

Although the Wolf Lord received more than half of the votes, according to the current election system, only those who received ten votes in the first round of voting could become emperor. According to convention, the fifteen ticket holders would hold a second round of voting fourteen days later, and whoever received more than half of the votes would be elected as the new emperor of the empire.

"I just heard recently that Fort Ulric is under siege by beastmen," Karl, 32, responded to the Wolf Lord's arrogant words, "Do we need an emperor who can't even take care of his own backyard?"

"What?!" Boris was immediately furious when his sore spot was touched: "You rude boy who believes in comets..."

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel, Maximilian von Koenigwald, the Elector of Osterland and a close ally of the late Emperor Leopold, was about to come out to mediate when a burst of laughter suddenly rang out in this spacious hall. The laughter came from all directions at the same time, overlapping and echoing in the vaulted hall.

While Karl was still in a daze, Boris, who had spent half his life in the military, had already pulled out the rune tooth. The Elector of Reikland looked to the side and saw the High Priest Wokma and two Great Chanters standing at the entrance of the People's Hall, holding their weapons and posing in a ready position. The Elector of Wiesenland, Karl's old lover, Baroness Emmanloli von Libervita, who was originally talking to the High Priest, looked into the hall curiously, and there was no trace of nervousness on her mature and charming face.

"(Elsalin) As a welcoming ceremony, it's still quite grand," said a female voice whose age was unknown, in an accent that seemed quite strange to humans. "(Rexperr) Oh, sorry, since we are in the territory of wild monkeys, we naturally have to speak the language of wild monkeys."

Under the gaze of all the humans, a female elf, whose clothes were too simple by Asur standards and too plain by Druzy standards, appeared out of thin air in the center of the People's Hall. She had a short sword hanging on her waist, but other than that, there was nothing on her body that could be called a weapon.

When everyone's attention was focused on her, another female elf quietly emerged from the shadows and came behind the female elf who spoke before without saying a word. The new female elf was obviously a nimble warrior, with an elven-style sword hanging on her waist and a longbow decorated with green leaves and vines on her back.

"I don't remember inviting you, elf," Karl, the Prince of Altdorf and the host of this place, spoke before Boris, "If you were a visiting guest, I would prepare seats and tea for you."

"It has been 32 years since we parted at the Black Pig Inn," the leading female elf looked at Carl. Her face was covered tightly by a gray scarf, with only her bright eyes exposed. "The baby in her mother's arms back then has turned into a heroic warrior in the blink of an eye."

"Ma'am!" Carl felt that the female elf had something else in her words. He had to raise his voice: "Please explain your purpose. I will make a judgment in accordance with justice and fairness based on your statement. Otherwise, I can only ask you to leave here. Come!"

The People's Hall was quiet for a while. People exchanged glances with each other. Boris, holding his sword, was visibly impatient, and his carefully groomed mustache twitched. Everyone waited for a moment, but the swordsman Rick (Note 2), who should have rushed in immediately after hearing the call, never showed up.

"No one, mortal or otherwise, will disturb us today," the elf said. "I'm sorry for what I'm about to do to you, ignorant monkeys."

"The dude in Rick is unreliable!" Boris yelled, not knowing who he was scolding. The Wolf Lord didn't have a shield, so he could only rush over with his sword in one hand: "For Yurik!!"

The female elf stood still, and the servant behind her stepped past his master and rushed forward. No one knew when the servant's sword was unsheathed. Carl heard a crisp sound of steel clashing, followed by the man's painful groan.

The Runefang of Midden fell to the ground, and the mirror-like blade reflected the distorted face of its master. Boris half-knelt on the ground, and a wet red slowly spread from the Wolf Lord's right wrist and left thigh.

After beating the Elector of Midden to his knees, the elven attendant did not take any further action, but raised his sword to observe the blade. Carl, who was standing a few meters away, noticed that the elven sword, which was wide in the middle and narrow at both ends, had several conspicuous gaps on the blade, while the rune tooth that fell to the ground was intact and shiny as new.

"Boris! You witch!!" The leader of the Church of Euric, Great Euric Emil Valjir, rushed over with a hammer and axe, protecting Boris, staring at the two uninvited female elves with a vigilant look on his face.

Before Great Ulric had the chance to swing his mace or unleash his magic, the almost old man with a lot of white hair and beard suddenly fell to the ground with his head tilted.

There was a series of clang sounds in the People's Hall, and even Carl drew his sword.

"Let's start with you," the elf said. She ignored the dozen swords, scepters, and war hammers pointed at her, walked to Emile who was knocked unconscious by the mental shock, and waved her slender hands, and Big Urik was lifted up from the ground by telekinesis.

The female elf drew out her only weapon, a dagger that was so simple that it was almost crude. "Madam!" Carl knew he had to do something, no matter if it was useful or not: "It's not too late to stop now. This is Altdorf, the throne of Sigmar. There are tens of millions of warriors in this city. No matter what witchcraft you use, you can't leave here safely."

"Oh~" the female elf dragged out a long sound. "Don't be too confident, Prince," her voice suddenly turned cold, "This will be the first lesson I teach you. The pursuit of power always leads people astray and becomes a slave to darkness, but without power, nothing can be done."
