Chapter 83: Beautiful Lambs

With twelve Dark Night Archers of the Twelfth Step strength, plus Sarabell, a Commander of the Twelfth Step strength, the combat power of the group was much stronger than that of an ordinary Demon Hunter Squad. Unfortunately, in front of Hu Feng, the Lich King, they were no match at all, and all were captured alive in just one encounter. A massive Death Aura gushed out from Hu Feng’s body, turning into tough black ropes that tightly bound the many Elves.

“Since you are here, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Could it be that you are dissatisfied with me, the City Lord?”

Looking at the many Elves who were like little lambs waiting to be slaughtered, Hu Feng sighed pretentiously and waved his hand to put away the Dragon Slaying Platform. This ancient Altar was far from being as simple as killing people for sacrifice; after preliminary refining, he gradually discovered many wonderful uses. With his immense power, this Altar was even easier to use than the Dark Magic Pen.

“You…, what do you want to do?”

“Let us go, otherwise, when our Her Majesty the Queen finds out, it will be too late for you to regret it!”

……

The more Hu Feng smiled, the more terrified the Elves became, trembling with fear one by one, but on the surface, they spoke sternly, attempting to use the identity of the Elf Queen to intimidate Hu Feng, the lawless Lich.

The Elf Queen who had cultivated for tens of thousands of years was rumored to have stepped into the God Step thousands of years ago and cultivated to the Demi-god Peak. Under her leadership, the Elf Castle dominated a region, occupying territory and resources thousands of times larger than Blackwater City. Relying on the fame of the Elf Queen, Sarabell and the others had a smooth journey; even the most savage City Lords would at most refuse to join the alliance, and no one dared to be disrespectful to them. Unexpectedly, this time they met Hu Feng, this lawless guy.

“What to do? What else can be done?”

Looking at the stern Elves, Hu Feng smiled without speaking, paused, and then sighed, “Actually, I don’t want to do this either. But I just captured Blackwater City and haven’t established a firm footing yet when you suddenly barged in. If I just let you go like this and the news gets out, what will I use to defend this newly captured castle?”

“Lord, we can swear that we will absolutely not leak the news of Blackwater City. Upon returning to the Elf Castle, we can quickly ship a large batch of supplies to you as compensation. Our Elf Castle has nothing else, but we have plenty of resources like crystals, ores, and sulfur!” Unlike the other stern Elves, Sarabell quickly calmed down, understanding the situation clearly in her heart.

“Compensation is unnecessary, but since you have served Her Majesty the Queen for so many years, it is only right for her to provide some dowry.” Hu Feng paused and slowly continued: “Beautiful ladies, I happen to be short of a few maids by my side. How about this, I’ll give you two choices: either become a Lich and join our Skeleton Archer Legion; or stay voluntarily and be a maid by my side!”

Become a dry Lich?

The Elves, who had just been speaking sternly, changed their expressions, trembling with fear and regretting endlessly. If they had known there was such a terrifying Great Demon King in this castle, even if they starved or worked to death, no one would have wanted to barge in. To go from a flower-like young girl to a mummy-like Lich, that would be worse than suicide!

“In front of a Lich King, even if you want to commit suicide, it’s not that easy!” Hu Feng smiled wickedly. After cultivating the Great Mystery Technique, his Divine Sense became even more powerful, and the thoughts of the Elves could not be hidden from his eyes. “My patience is limited. Being a maid beside a Lich King is definitely much more exciting than being a maid beside the Elf Queen. Don’t wait until you become an immortal Lich to regret not seizing the opportunity in time!”

Hu Feng had a face full of smiles; this group of Elves before him, no matter how they resisted, could not escape his grasp.

The massive Death Aura quickly turned into ice-cold Dark Mist, filling every corner of the hall, secretly casting a mind-fear spell. The Elves were already terrified after being tied up, and watching the increasingly thick Dark Mist, imagining being turned into a Lich by evil Undead Magic, their psychological defenses finally completely collapsed. Sarabell, who was always calm, was the first to prostrate herself. Although she was unwilling in her heart, she understood there was no better way.

Just as Hu Feng said, if there was someone to blame, they could only blame themselves for being too stupid, barging in without carefully observing the situation!

“Good, very good! From now on, you are the Elf Maids by my side. Right now, you are still unwilling in your hearts, but one day, you will discover how lucky today’s choice is!”

Hu Feng mobilized the Soul Crystal in his body, leaving a deep imprint in the depths of the Elves’ minds. A group of beautiful lambs, under Hu Feng’s coercion and temptation, had no choice but to submit obediently. Since things had come to this, the Elves held nothing back and told him everything.

Sure enough, as expected, Sarabell and her group had only barged in unintentionally. Under the Queen’s orders, they came out to contact the City Lords along the way, inviting them to join the alliance against the Great Demon King of the second layer of the Underground World. The Underground World was simply too big, and no one knew how many castles were hidden in the darkness. After a terrible storm took away a large amount of precious maps and supplies, they were overjoyed to see a castle and walked over excitedly. Unexpectedly, they stepped right into the terrifying Forbidden Land of Blackwater City.

After occupying Blackwater City, Hu Feng held the first formal meeting to discuss the next strategy. Sitting high in the hall, looking down at Arnold, Yisu, and the others, behind him stood two tall Night Elves on the left and right, gently massaging his shoulders.

“Lord, I think that having just captured this castle, it is best not to make any moves for the time being, so as not to alert the surrounding forces!” The burly Arnold, as usual, was the first to put forward his suggestion, which was reasonable and gained the approval of many people.

“No, just the opposite. We must sweep away the surrounding forces as soon as possible; only in this way can we truly seal off the movements here!” Yisu glanced imperceptibly at the scantily clad Elf Maids behind Hu Feng, and continued: “Of course, we cannot sweep openly in the name of the Lich Legion. We can attack from several routes at the same time, disguised as wandering creatures to sweep the forces entrenched around, and destroy them all before they can react! Then send out a large number of scouts to explore the terrain of the entire Underground World!”

“Yes, what Grand Commander Yisu says makes sense!”

……

After some argument, most people agreed with Yisu’s suggestion. The situation was different, and the strategy was also different. In terms of grand strategy, Arnold and Grand Commander Yisu were worlds apart.
