Chapter 668: Ice Sword

At this moment, Gru's heart was like knocking over a five-flavor bottle.

He couldn't accept that everything he had carefully planned had been inexplicably ruined, that the change had come too suddenly, and that he had no mental preparation at all.

Everything was running correctly on the track he expected, and he didn't make any mistakes himself, but the plan that was already sure of everything had happened that shouldn't have happened.

Just now, before he entered the study, he was confident that his plan was already in sight.

In his vision, after meeting with Parson today, he should be able to take a powerful fleet built by the Elven Kingdom to go overseas and set off for the birthplace of the Elves, the mysterious frozen island - Warly Island.

Then, there, with the mighty army that Parson had given him, he will try to convince or subdue the stubborn Ice Elves in search of the legendary Excalibur.

The forbidden divine sword that was said to have never appeared in this world, possessed the power of destroying the world, and was made using a certain magical technology in the Age of Miracles.

Sword of Ice.

Among the elves, there is such an ancient legend about this sword.

According to legend, when the elves were still divided, when the elves still lived on the frozen island of Voli and called themselves the ice elves, the elves used some magical technology left over from the Age of Wonders to craft a powerful sword.

That's the Sword of Ice.

The Ice Sword was made quite successfully, and its power was far beyond the imagination of the elves, and the elves were terrified by this power, and they found that they had made a forbidden weapon that should not have appeared in this world, because the power of this weapon was even strong enough to destroy the world.

The elves, who regretted it, wanted to destroy the weapon, but they were reluctant to let the painstaking work they had spent so much time and energy on disappear, so they only destroyed the method of making the weapon, but sealed it in a certain place, regarded it as a sacred relic of their own people, and left a warning to future generations not to use this weapon unless it was absolutely necessary.

This legend is quite ancient, and the description of the Ice Sword is too mysterious and a bit unreliable, so most elves today just treat it as a legend, even if you hear it.

Only a very small number of high-ranking people in the elven kingdom know that this legend is not groundless, but true.

The Ice Sword is real, in the birthplace of the elves, on the perennial icy island of Warri, this sword is secretly and properly sealed somewhere, and the ice elves still worship it as sacred.

Originally, with Gru's half-elf blood, he could not have known about this matter anyway, but due to Parson's preference for him, the half-elf had to go in and out of the library of the elven kingdom freely, where, by chance, because of the search for some ancient historical materials, in some dusty and unnoticed remote corner, the half-elf found some detailed records about the Ice Sword, which should have been destroyed, Due to the cherishing and reluctance of an elven magician who participated in the production of the Ice Sword for his hard work, he was secretly hidden in some historical materials that no one cared about, and was taken to the continent of Erathia with the division of the elves, and was accepted into the library by the elven kingdom.

This discovery was so great that the half-elf secretly took the materials out of the library, conducted detailed research in private, and after confirming that the Ice Sword did exist, the half-elf began his plan.

A plan to take the sword of ice into its own hands and use it for its own purposes.

It's just that it's not that easy to achieve this plan.

Although he had a lot of information on his hands, Gru didn't know anything about where the Ice Sword was hiding, and he didn't even know where Warri Island was.

Because there is no existence of Warry Island on the existing charts, even the most complete and detailed charts drawn by the Rigner pirates, the birthplace of this elf is so mysterious that only a few high-ranking figures in the elven kingdom know its exact location.

At the same time, through some ways, Gru also learned that due to the division of the year, the elven clan that has now settled on the Elasia continent and called itself the forest elves and established the elven kingdom has a very bad relationship with the ice and snow elves who are still resting on the island of Warri and living an isolated life.

Gru has been secretly operating for a long time, but he still hasn't been able to figure out the specific location of Warori Island, because this is a very sensitive issue, and it is easy to arouse suspicion, not to mention that Gru is only a half-elf, if he shows excessive curiosity about the Ice Sword, it is really a rather unwise thing from his standpoint.

At the same time, Gru also asked himself if he was capable of forming a fleet, he might be able to pull up an elite army for himself, but the fleet was not, a fleet needed many warships, and people who could skillfully operate these warships, these were not things that could be done on Gru's terms, Gru knew nothing about the sea and naval warfare, in fact, Gru had also tried this, he spent a lot of money privately to buy two sea ships, organized a sea caravan, and wanted to use this to train qualified sailors, And profit from the sea trade as his own activity funds, but what makes him helpless is that this merchant fleet, which he thinks has good military force, has only been out to sea for a long time, and has been targeted by the Rigner pirates, and finally ended up with a shipwreck, and with the loss of a large number of loyal men and years of savings for Gru, his strength has been greatly damaged.

Without a fleet, Gru would not have been able to transport his elite army to the island of Warori, and without an army, without a strong force, would the Ice Elves obediently hand over their relics to Gru? The answer, of course, is obvious.

Having learned from the experience, Gru decides to change his plans, giving up on the idea of obtaining the Ice Sword on his own, and instead seeks ways to harness the power of the Elven Kingdom to achieve his goals.

At this time, Alice found him and told him about Farouk, so Gru began to plan to use Farouk for his own use, he was not too confident that he could successfully use the power of the Elven Kingdom to achieve the goal of finding the Ice Sword, because at that time Parson was still not very trusting of him and quite wary, so Gru regarded Farouk's side as his backup plan, and he calculated that if the Elven Kingdom did not go well, Then use the power of Farouk to build your own forces, and then try to go to sea to seize the Ice Sword from the Ice Elves after gaining strength.

So over the years, Gru has been secretly manipulating everything, he sent Lloyd and others to support Farouk, and let Alice make friends with those people in the kingdom who agree with Farouk's ideas, but he himself is hidden behind the scenes, and he also works hard to gain more trust from Parson.

Then the Battle of Doom broke out, and the Kregans not only failed to achieve their goal, but instead ended up defeating their country and delivering the Doom Blade to Gru.

Gru is no stranger to the Blade of Doom, and strictly speaking, he actually knows a lot about it, because in more than one place in the materials that record the Sword of Ice, the Blade of Doom is compared to the Sword of Ice, and the method of making these two weapons is a relic of the Age of Miracles.

What's more, based on the research of the elven mage who left these materials, the two weapons, if put together, are likely to produce some kind of astonishing mutation.

"This kind of mutation will destroy a certain balance on which this world depends, cause the disorder of various magical elements, and then cause the world to be devastated."

It is for this reason that Gru has actually been following Serren's footsteps during the Doomsday Campaign, and it is not just an accident that the Doomsday Blade fell into his hands.

After getting the Doom Blade, Gru finally settled on one thing.

All of this is providential.

The Ice Elf made the Ice Sword and has survived to this day, the only information about the Ice Sword was obtained by him, and now the Doomsday Blade, which can cause mutation with the Ice Sword, was also created by Kregan, and the ghost sent him to obtain it, and he was destined to become the end of this world.

The problem that had once plagued him about how to fully activate the true power of the Ice Sword was solved so easily.

"It seems that even God has become angry with this world full of misfortune and suffering"

"Perhaps, God also wants to borrow my hand to end this miserable world that should not exist a long time ago, right?"

On one of the pages of the information about the Ice Sword, Gru wrote these two sentences after obtaining the Doom Blade.

Yes, the half-elf wants to obtain the Sword of Ice, and its ultimate goal is to destroy this world that has always been full of malice towards him, brought him countless pains, and always made him constantly disappointed and even desperate, he hates this world without any reason and family affection, hates his biological father and adoptive father, and even hates his own existence, since a long time ago, because of his past experience and extremely distorted personality, he has already had the crazy idea of destroying this world, and letting this world be buried for his lifeless self, The appearance of the Ice Sword made him see the hope of achieving this goal, and the appearance of the Doomsday Blade strengthened his confidence.

He deliberately used his strategy to move towards this terrible goal step by step, and after obtaining the Doom Blade, he revised his plan again, and after careful consideration, he asked Alice to hand over the Doom Blade to Farouk, which greatly increased Farouk's confidence and accelerated his self-reliance, and then managed to spread the news of someone trying to start a rebellion to Parson, so that he could start an operation, and put pressure on Farouk to start a faster launch.

The rebellion of the Farouk Army, which shook the continent, took place.

Then, through the remote command of Lloyd and Alice and others and the use of the Doomsday Blade, he successfully caused the Farouk army to cause serious losses to the Elven Kingdom, and the Elven King Parson was in a mess, and then Gru handed over the information about the Ice Sword to Parson selectively through a certain method, which successfully made Parson mistakenly think that the Ice Sword had the power to destroy the Doomsday Blade, which was the biggest weakness of the Doomsday Blade.

After that, everything fell into place, Gru gained the absolute trust of Parson because of this great merit, and the matter of trying to obtain the Ice Sword from the Ice Elves of Warry was also put on the agenda of the Elven Kingdom, Parson began to rebuild the navy, and Gru also knew about the Ice Sword and the Doomsday Blade, and because of Parson's trust, with his ability to preside over this matter, Parson decided to let his bastard help him go to Warri to retrieve the Ice Sword, The relationship between the forest elves and the ice elves is very stiff, and if they want to obtain the Ice Sword, they may have to rely on force at that time, and Gru's military talent is obvious to all, and if you want to steal the Ice Sword from the Ice Elves in a different way, Gru and his elite Jungle Guardian troops are also quite suitable candidates.

Because of this, Gru finally got more information about the Warri Ice Elves, he knew the specific location of Warri Island, knew the possible sealing location of the Ice Sword, knew that the Ice Elves who were not enterprising probably did not dare to use this powerful weapon at all because of the ancient admonition, and he even knew that between Warri Island and the Turalone Forest, there was actually a two-way magic portal, and a long time ago, the two sides still often had back and forth, but now, The Ice Elves have closed the portal, so if you want to get to Warri Island, you have to go by sea.

Now everything is ready, the fleet of the Elven Kingdom is ready to go, and more than a dozen brand-new super-large warships that Parson has built with all his might are waiting for Gru in a port somewhere in the west of Eli, these warships may not be as good as the standard warships of the Rigner pirates in terms of performance, and even less than the advanced sea dragon warships of the Entagri Empire, but because of the towering giant trees produced in the Erimi forest, the volume is amazing, and the huge volume brings the same amazing carrying capacity, so these dozen or so warships, But it was loaded with more than 10,000 of the most elite elven warriors, of which more than half of the jungle guardian troops, and many elven magicians also set off with them, and at the same time, the elves' silver pegasus did not pull down.

And Gru has also completed the recovery of the Doomsday Blade, the Farouk army was abandoned by him after being used, and he was about to set off, of course he couldn't let the Doomsday Blade not appear in his hands, in order to prevent everything he planned because of the recovery of the Doomsday Blade and attract the suspicion of his subordinates who were enveloped by him in various ways, and then expose everything he planned, he killed Lloyd, and then let Alice and them break away from the Farouk army, he arranged everything very well, There is a perfect excuse for everything, no one suspects him, Alice and they are still loyal to him, Farouk still does not know his role in everything, Parson trusts him, he could have gone to Warri without worry, and then use the Blade of Doom and the Sword of Ice to complete his revenge on this world and make everything nothing.

But now, at this last moment, a variable that should not have appeared, but all that he had painstakingly planned, all became a bamboo basket for nothing.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Gru was already about to blow up, following Parson and Kendall, the two people who made the half-elf extremely hateful, at this moment, Chen Jian, a character who had not had much intersection with him, had also become the object that the half-elf wanted to get rid of.

But on the surface, Gru remained silent, and he stood there quietly, not immediately responding to Parson, with a thoughtful look.

Parson was not suspicious of this, he thought that Gru might be thinking about his own words, after all, his decision was too sudden, and it was normal for Gru to not accept it for a while, he knew that Gru had put a lot of effort into this trip to the sea, for which Parson even gave birth to a trace of apology, after making sure that his son with half human blood was extremely loyal to him, he began to regret a little regret that he had not been able to care more about this illegitimate child in the past, and sometimes he even thought, If Gru had been a pure elf, he would have passed the throne to him.

It's just that Parson didn't expect that the anger in his bastard heart at this time was far more than when he learned that Baiya Pass had fallen, and he didn't expect that in the other party's heart, at this time, he even had the idea of pulling out the blade of doom on his waist to give himself a sword, and he didn't expect that if the other party really went to War, the world would pay a heavy price for everything he had done to this bastard.

Unconsciously, the elven king Parson has completed a great feat of saving the world.

The study was silent, and neither father nor son spoke again, and it was a long time before Gru opened his mouth to break the silence.

"I see, father, as you wish, I will lead the army you have given me to fight where you need me most, I will wipe out the undead creatures at the edge of the forest, and I will bring Hammondale back under the control of the kingdom, neither the Elasia army nor the Entagre army will be able to advance a single step in Hammondal."

Gru's words were sonorous and firm, and Parson couldn't help but smile on his face.

His laughter made Gru feel disgusted, but his clever control prevented him from showing such bad emotions on his face, his anger, his helplessness, all of which were well hidden by him under the mask he was used to.

Gru knew that now he had nothing to think of but to obey Palson's wishes, and that it was useless to insist, it would only attract Palson's suspicions again, and if Palson was suspicious, he would not be able to go to Warry, and he would ruin the current rapport between the two, in which case, things would be even worse.

The plan had been ruined, and he had to try to minimize the damage caused by this destruction, and the sword of ice was in the wo, and there was no way to run anywhere else, and Parson was determined to get this sword, and he would probably do his best, and Gru knew that he still had a chance to get his hands on it, so he chose to compromise.

He has been waiting for so long, he doesn't care about waiting a few more days, he believes that this world will one day pay the due price for what he has done, and he will eventually become the end of this world, this is fate, this is providence.
