Due to the passing of the dark elven empress three years ago, most of the dark elves had already withdrawn from north Twilight Zone. Only some of the more stubborn members of their race were left struggling along with the dwarves and gnomes.
And such strength, to a congregation of many Magi, especially the human troops led by Leylin, was as insignificant as dust.
The troops had an irresistible force. They conquered expansive plots of land by barely expending any energy and even pushed through to Potti city.
At the entrance of the city, the flag of the dark eves could be seen flying high, amidst thick smog, giving off an ominous feel.
“Potti City! The original line of defence of the north, and also the place where Protector Yade died!” Leylin looked at the few dark elves and sneered, “This is a strategic border town, could it be the dark elves are still dreaming of dividing the land with us?”
“Pass down the order, all troops are to pitch camp here, we will attack tomorrow!”
Leylin casually passed the order to his left and right-hand men, and they passed down the message layer by layer. The entire troop stopped and found themselves suitable spaces to pitch camps. At the moment, the Magi and normal soldiers were busy, but they were not in disorder, displaying the good control Leylin had over his army.
In the center of the closely packed camps was a big gold tent, decorated with exquisite gemstones and incense. There were even teams of Magi patrolling outside of it.
Although the Guardian of the Realm did not fancy all this, it was necessary etiquette.
“Hm?” Leylin who was meditating in the middle of the gold tent suddenly opened his eyes and his mouth turned into a smile.
After a few minutes, a congratulatory voice could be heard “Master!”
“Enter!”
The front curtain was unveiled and a middle-aged man with white hair entered, his being radiated with the scary energy of a rank 2 Magi, but at this moment, he kneeled down on one knee as a form of respect to Leylin.
“Reporting to master! There is a rank 2 matriarch of the dark elves who claims to be an old friend and wants to see you!”
“An old friend?” Leylin smiled, “Let her in.”
Chapter 385 – Allegiance
Allegiance
The rank 2 Magus deferentially accepted the order and left, and minutes later, a rank 2 dark elven matriarch in skintight clothing walked in.
Her face was extremely delicate, her skin pale and exquisite. She was evidently a beauty that was hard to come by, though her expression now held apprehension.
“Alicia! As expected, it’s you!” Leylin laughed.
Out of all the dark elves, it was just this one matriarch that he had been standing against for ten or so years in Dolon City, and they could somewhat be considered acquaintances.
“Alicia greets the lord Guardian of the Realm!” The dark elven matriarch Alicia bit her lips, and then knelt and leaned down, respectfully touching her head to the cold ground.
She was still slightly dazed. This young Magus that had contested with her for over ten years had long since reached the apex of the Magus World and had left her far behind. When she saw him, she even needed to kneel. She did not want to do this, yet could not express it on the outside.
From Leylin’s point of view, he took in everything, from the pretty and flirtatious matriarch’s exquisite jade-like back, rounded taut buttocks, to her slender, firm thighs.
As if noticing Leylin’s gaze, a look of bashfulness appeared on Alicia’s face, but she secretly wriggled her body, revealing a silent charm.
In her heart, however, she felt an intense feeling of humiliation.
Though dark elves were very open when it came to promiscuity to the point they could have boy toys of different races as well, it was always the dark elves dominating in the psychological aspect, with their mental belief in their stance as masters and owners who were untouchable.
But now? This experience of offering herself up as a gift and fearing the other party not accepting was difficult for Alicia, a matriarch of fewer than 200 years and a very mentally sensitive dark elf.
“So what is your intention in coming here?” Leylin withdrew his gaze. He had always been able to control himself when it mattered.
In addition, after advancing to be a rank 3 Warlock and taking over as the Guardian of the Realm, there were more than enough women wanting to climb into his bed. There had even been dark elves who had attempted this— after the great defeat of the dark elves, there was a large dive in the prices of dark elven slaves in the slave market, and there were many dark elven nobles on sale! It had to be said that because of their great outer appearance and innate skill at magic, dark elves were truly the most suitable choice to be Magus slaves.
Even if Leylin did not express anything, there would be Magi racking their brains on how to please him and sending him captive dark elves for him to enjoy.
“I represent the dark elven race and am here to offer my allegiance to my lord! Please let my race go!” Alicia’s voice brought with it sorrow as she continued kneeling, passing over a fine crown and a black crystal.
“This is the symbol of our power—the dark elven crown, as well as the complete volume of the high-grade meditation technique, ‘Life Absorption.’ We dark elves are willing to completely withdraw from north Twilight Zone, even pulling back till the north of the river. We will also supply top-grade exclusive slaves and many precious resources. Please let us off!” Alicia continued to beg while kowtowing.
“This…” Leylin pondered, fingers circling and rapping to create a regular rhythm.
Alicia’s breath almost stopped, awaiting the judgment of destiny in terror and anticipation.
“Fine.” Leylin nodded in agreement.
After the human race’s allied force recovered the northern region, it lacked the ability to advance and gain more.
In addition, Leylin still had other ideas.
An absolute power meant that once the human race completely extinguished the dark elves, gnomes, and dwarves with his help, they could very well decline quickly due to internal strife. This was not what Leylin wanted to see.
A constant, unyielding external pressure would evidently be able to serve the function of spurring on the humans.
“Many thanks, my lord!” Alicia was so elated she was on the verge of tears.
Though Leylin could immediately enjoy the enthusiastic desire of this matriarch to serve him, he still chased her out.
It was obvious that Alicia’s value could not compare to the dark elven crown and high-grade meditation technique.
“Magic equipment— Dark Elven Crown!”
Leylin caressed the surface of this magic equipment. As it had been used recently in the war, the crown’s surface was dim, and it seemed unremarkable.
If not for knowing about it beforehand, Leylin might have been tricked by its outer appearance and missed this magic equipment.
In the world of the Magi, magic equipment ranked far above magic artifacts. They held a mysterious power within, and usually, only Magi at rank 3 and higher would have the opportunity to come into contact with one.
[Discovered magic equipment, beginning scan!] [Beep! Scanning complete. 45.9% could not be analysed. Obtained high-grade concealing and icy runes, as well as traces of incomplete high-grade illusory spell formation runes…]
Many prompts from the A.I. Chip appeared.
“This is just the start. If I can completely analyse the inner workings of this magical device, I might even be able to forge my own…”
Leylin could tell that this was a great opportunity for him. He had been unable to improve his alchemy and high-grade enchantment skills in recent times.
“And this!” Leylin picked up that black crystal.
Large amounts of information streamed in front of Leylin’s eyes. They were written in the dark elven language, but this was nothing important. Earlier in the eastern region, Leylin had obtained much fundamental academic content through the library in Nature’s Alliance. Things like the dark elven language were nothing much.
“Life Absorption!” This was a high-grade meditation technique passed down by the dark elves. Only dark elves who were as powerful as matriarchs were qualified to train in it.
From this, it could be seen that Longbottom had really been doing well with the dark elves, and had gained their trust.
“This meditation technique…” Leylin touched his chin, recalling the information the A.I. Chip had just recorded.
Even though this bit of time was not enough for him to completely analyse the meditation technique, he largely knew its characteristics and uses.
Life Absorption was obviously rated as high-grade and was in the top class even in Twilight Zone. If not, dark elves themselves had many high-grade meditation techniques. Why would they make it a rule that it was a meditation technique to be passed down?
