"It's just that the second world has become like this, and similar things will continue to happen in the future. For interests, resources, talents, and technology, there are too many things that must be fought for, forcing me to do anything. Kiana and the others can't accept this. How can I convince them?"

"So this is what you are worried about." Hephaestus suddenly realized.

"Yes, it's quite a headache. They are kindhearted. When faced with the choice of sacrificing their companions, they will naively keep trying, seeking a perfect path where no one has to be sacrificed. These are beautiful qualities, the glimmer of the soul, qualities that even you gods would naturally admire."

"Yeah, I like them very much."

“But for me, no.”

"You want to change them?"

"I don't want to. I hope they can live innocently forever. But in the future, I will definitely make cruel decisions like I am doing now." Jiang Chen sighed.

This is an impossible contradiction to reconcile.

It's impossible to keep it secret forever. Even the most perfect lie will be exposed one day.

"Perhaps you should open up a little more. Just like the development of civilization, history books record the cruelty of war in just a few pages, and readers cannot sympathize with those who suffered from war. In later generations, people will only study this cruel history and conclude that civilization progressed because of war." Hephaestus suggested sincerely, "And the creatures of this world are nothing more than puppets manipulated by the will of the gods."

These concepts have a bit of a divine perspective.

"Yeah, that's the only way for now. We can't let them get directly involved in such cruel things, and finally give them a seemingly happy answer. We'll take it one step at a time and see."

I reluctantly accepted the suggestion, as there was really no better solution.

It was just the anxiety in his heart that made Jiang Chen frown.

The atmosphere remained heavy all the way until they arrived at the Black City.

This is the tower built by the Dark Elf Queen Orika to adjust her own status. It is also the headquarters of the monsters in the North.

Of course, the truth was that the Black City was a place Olika had built solely to prepare for pregnancy. Within the massive tower, only Olika and her guards existed; as for the monsters, they had no right to enter the Black City.

Therefore, Jiang Chen and Hephaestus had a smooth journey.

The barriers and magic arrays in the city were like paper in front of them. Apart from the strongest barrier, they couldn't even feel the other barriers or traps.

The highest point of the tower.

Olika sat upright on the throne, holding the staff tightly, and looked at the person who came with a serious face.

Chloe, the guard, sensed the queen's mood change and stood in front, her sword drawn, pointing at the enemy without fear.

"The Queen of Dark Elf, right." Jiang Chen glanced at her indifferently.

The dark elf with long black hair exudes a haughty aura and is, overall, a rare and exotic beauty.

The Queen's Guard, Chloe, was equally striking, with brown skin, blonde hair, and red eyes. Her expression was serious and alert. As a half-dark elf, she wasn't as arrogant as Orika, but she possessed a unique charm.

But in Jiang Chen's eyes, these two beautiful women were only outstanding in appearance.

Inside?

Is there any inner beauty worth appreciating in a mentally retarded person who is obviously seriously ill?

Jiang Chen didn't have any expectations, and wasn't even prepared to treat them as human beings.

This is especially true for Hephaestus, who, rather than outward appearance, cares more about the character and soul of mortals. These are the foundation for miracles, the brilliance that fascinates the gods.

"Aren't you going to say anything?" Jiang Chen said impatiently, "Ask whatever you want to ask. I don't have much patience to waste time with you."

"...Are you here to kill me?" Olika said expressionlessly.

Is this the problem?

No, there is nothing we can do about it.

At this moment, Olika felt confused about everything.

Before this, she hadn't noticed anyone had invaded the tower, and was still puzzled by the barrier's sudden failure. When Jiang Chen and Hephaestus appeared before her, their overwhelming presence made it impossible to resist. Furthermore, she couldn't even tell their race.

confused.

Still confused.

There was only one thing that was beyond doubt: what stood before her was unprecedented and absolute violence that she could not resist.

Hearing this, Chloe hurriedly shouted: "If you want to assassinate the queen, you must step over my dead body first!"

ridiculous.

Olivia could vaguely sense the strength of the two men, but the poor guard couldn't even see what kind of existence he was facing. He simply showed his loyalty, and after learning from the monarch about the enemy's strength, he hurriedly prepared to fulfill his loyalty.

However, Jiang Chen and Hephaestus had no interest in finding out about these things; they just felt bored.

"Never mind. Thinking of using a final act of mercy to alleviate some of the guilt before committing an evil act is really unnecessary." Jiang Chen asked with a lack of interest, "Hephaestus, can you use your divine power to control their minds?"

"Please, I'm not a goddess of beauty. Why don't you really go find Freya? She's perfect for you."

052 Aren’t these born like cattle and horses?

"Is there really no other way? The dark elves' ability to control monsters is quite convenient."

Jiang Chen was a little distressed.

Dark elves are born with the power to command monsters. As long as they have sufficient magic power, their control over monsters will be multiplied. He hopes to use Orika to gather monsters from all over the North to fill the Black Beast Mercenary Corps.

You know, the monsters reproduce much faster than the human races. It's only because of their cannibalism that they haven't directly broken through the defenses.

The huge number can efficiently collect the will of the evil god.

"There's really no other way. It's okay for a short time. But if you want to control it for a long time, it involves power." Hephaestus spread his hands helplessly.

The two of them didn't treat Olika and Chloe as human beings at all. They talked to themselves, and their tone was as if they were discussing how to slaughter livestock, which completely angered the loyal guards.

Chloe's facial features began to contort as she screamed and cursed wildly with extreme anger.

They were basically something like "despicable thief", "I will chop off your heads", "Don't try to hurt the queen", "The arrogant will die by my sword" and so on.

"A bit noisy." Jiang Chen glanced at him unhappily.

Chloe fell silent immediately.

This timid look actually piqued Jiang Chen's interest.

"I originally thought it was a pure puppet, but I didn't expect it to retain some biological instincts."

"What... do you want to say?" Chloe took a step back.

The palms of his hands, gripping the sword tightly, were already wet with cold sweat.

"Didn't you notice? You were very angry just now. The weapon was right in your hand, but you didn't attack. Your body was retreating little by little. Why don't you look back and see where you are now." Jiang Chen chuckled with interest.

The experience of playing the role of the final BOSS relieved some of the anxiety in my heart.

"I'm just waiting..." Chloe retorted subconsciously, and when she turned around, she was suddenly surprised.

At some point, she retreated to the queen's side.

This posture seems more like he is ready to escape at any time than protecting the queen.

In an instant, she was overwhelmed by a huge sense of shame.

In this state, what's the point of talking about protection and loyalty?

"I'm sorry, Queen, I..." Chloe lowered her head in shame.

Aolica said nothing, because she understood Chloe's feelings very well.

That indescribable feeling of powerlessness, no matter how much you deceive yourself, no matter how many times you tell yourself to fight in your heart, your body cannot move.

Just like facing a mountain, people will sigh at their own insignificance, in awe, but still retain the courage to change it, even if it means moving the mountain. But one day, the mountain moves and falls from the sky. In that moment, faith, courage, even escape, lose their meaning.

So, give up resistance.

The result is already determined, and any words or even thoughts seem pale and powerless.

Seeing that the master and servant were in a bad state, Jiang Chen and Hephaestus exchanged glances, silently took out various weapons, and tested the dark elves' abilities.

Then they were surprised to find that the elves in the Black Beast World had higher values ​​in all aspects than the elves in the Earth World.

outrageous.

Immortal, possessing innate magical powers, a powerful mind and robust physical abilities. Ignoring [Blessings], he outclasses even Earth Elves in every way. Truly, he inherits the rich bloodline of the gods.

The more this happened, the more regretful Jiang Chen felt.

With such a high racial value, it was born in the world of black beasts.

In terms of immortality alone, it is not rare in the multiverse, but it is definitely considered impressive.

"Why don't you try to contract them? Just keep them as pets. I just took a look and found that they don't have the will of the evil god. They simply inherited the bloodline. Let them read more books in the future. Who knows, they might become talented people. If that doesn't work, you can just make them slaves." Hephaestus tentatively suggested.

Hephaestus thought a lot.

In a sense, the dark elves perfectly meet Jiang Chen's requirements for black gloves.

No morals, no brains, but with certain abilities, the ability to be immortal is roughly equivalent to unlimited overtime.

Isn’t this the natural body of an ox or a horse?

Thinking of this, Hephaestus looked at Olika again, and suddenly felt that the other person exuded a strong sense of class all over his body.

"【Yuanqi】They..." Jiang Chen was reluctant.

I am really worried that the [fate] between the two of them will in turn affect my IQ.

"Just give it a try. It's not a loss anyway. If they have any impact, just kill them directly."

"This……"

Jiang Chen was also curious about whether the ability of [Fate Contract] to repay the contract would disappear if the contracted party was killed.

After thinking about it, he decided to give it a try.

So, Jiang Chen started the [Fate Contract] ceremony, and Hephaestus used his divine power to manipulate Olika and Chloe to agree, forcing the [Fate Contract] to be developed.

"How about it?"

"Well, the contract has been established. It's normal for the feedback to increase mental strength, but the impact... isn't there for now." Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s a great success if you don’t get any weird debaff.

Olivia blinked in confusion. The [Destiny Contract] hadn't allowed her to sense any changes in herself, and Jiang Chen hadn't even granted her a [Blessing]. It felt like, vaguely, she'd uncontrollably agreed to some contract, and then... nothing happened?

Is the contract fake?

The reactions of these two strong men did not seem to be fooling him.

"What did you do to me?"

"It's just a contract. To put it simply, from now on, I am your master. Everything you have, whether it's your body or your strength, belongs to me." Jiang Chen explained.

"..."

Olika's brain went into a state of shutdown, and it took him a long time to understand this sentence.

Do you have a master?

Do you no longer belong to yourself?

After a brief silence, she burst into a sharp explosion.

“Ahhhhh——!”

It would be better to kill her!

Compared with the previous torture which was not painful at all, at this moment, she was being sent to hell.

"You bastard! Evildoer! What have you done to me?! How dare you tarnish the pride of my clan, my long-cherished wish! My pursuit! My efforts! My patience! Gone, all gone! Haha, you had to use this kind of contract, this kind of thing..."

"No, this elf is crazy?" Hephaestus snapped his fingers. "This guy actually wanted to destroy his own soul just now."

Although Hephaestus had used his divine power to stop Aulica's behavior, he still found it incredible.

It's just a contract. It neither rewrites the personality nor humiliates it.

I really can't understand why Olika had such a big reaction, to the point of committing suicide.

No, before, he was so cowardly, giving up all hope and completely giving up, not daring to even utter a word. But after hearing the contract, he immediately overcame his fear and started to curse them.

This in itself is surprising.
