Section 315 Vicious

Sagas got the news later that day. As mentioned earlier, she now lives with Parry. And Parry was recuperating from his wounds—like all the delicate sons of the rich, and in order to reduce the pain of his wounds, Parry often drank milk mixed with poppies. This drink does not help to heal the wound, but it can effectively reduce the pain of the wound. Of course, its side effect is also obvious, that is, the mind is dizzy, and it takes much longer to sleep than to be awake.

So, this drink is not used very often. In other words, under normal circumstances, it is always used in moderation. However, Parry's situation is not normal. Because this drink is made by sagas.

When Marven's avatar appeared in front of Sagas, he and Parry were just separated by a wall.

According to the agreement, Tzeentch shared the information he had received from Ashrufat with Sagas. In fact, in this regard, Tzeentch's followers have always believed in their word. As mentioned earlier, as long as Tzeentch's wizards are not sure of stabbing you to death, they will usually not stab you. They are so proficient at lying that they will never tell lies that can be easily debunked.

"You say...... Ashrufat...... But no, this scarlet spot...... It's not the kind of ...... that you can do by detonating yourself," Sagas hesitated. Chaos infighting is not uncommon, in fact, civil wars between Chaos tribes are simply commonplace. Sagas naturally had enough experience with the methods of the wizard of Nurgle.

"Rogin's new invention. Marven shrugged. "He's always going to put together something weird...... Anyway, you know, this magic can make people die slowly in painful torment, and it is also in line with Rogin's expectations when he was dying. ”

"I think it's ......weird," Sagas hesitated, still hesitating.

"In any case, if it's the Crimson Spot, then the death date of our Lord Ashrufat...... Two months? No, it can't be understood that there is a month at most before he realizes that there is no cure for his ill. Marven said. "This month is precious, we ...... Can be recycled!"

"Waste utilization?"

"A person who is going to die soon is worthless...... Of course, there is no threat. Sagas, perhaps, we can make a further covenant?"

"Hmph. Sagas snorted coldly, but his expression couldn't help but change. Tzeentch's gifts are always spiky, but he will be irresistible. "Unfortunately, I don't think so. ”

"Now there's a great opportunity, for you and for me. Come to think of it, Sagas, you are now recognized as the darling of Slaaneshin, and with the right opportunity, you can ascend to the throne of the Chaos Lord......"

Marven noticed Sagas's obvious frown. "Lord of Chaos, I have received as much grace as any Lord of Chaos......" Sagas replied coldly.

Marvin, Sagas, and even the dead Rogin. They can all be regarded as Chaos Lords, but this "Chaos Lord" does not mean that they rely on their power to control a piece of Chaos Land, it does not mean that they have a stable base, territory, tribe, etc., but that they are favored by the gods. Specifically, the real meaning of this "Chaos Lord" is "a character of the same level as the Chaos Lord", which is closer to an honorific title. They have a small group of subordinates, they have a lot of influence, and they can even be blue-eyed by the gods, even in the face of the real Chaos Lord, they can be on an equal footing. In fact, at the slightest opportunity, they were able to rise to the top, gather an army, lay down a piece of land - and become a veritable, veritable Lord of Chaos. Of course, there is another way, and that is to take out a Chaos Lord who has lost the favor of the gods and replace him. But the second way is to get the approval of the gods. Unfortunately, the gods did not often adopt this method, they did not like this easy way to ascend to the top, preferring to compete in a crowd and then the strongest came out on top.

But, no matter what, their title of "Chaos Lord" is not worthy of the name. They already have the qualifications, but they lack some other hardware: the army, the troops, and the land.

On the contrary, the identity of the Blood Fang Lord as a "Chaos Lord" is worthy of the name and is not false at all. He has made the White Fort a fiefdom and has gathered an army that is completely subordinate to him and under his command. With his own territory, his own army, and the gods who support him, in the chaotic world where strength is respected, his voice is obviously greatly enhanced by those who are theoretically equal to him. Because of this, he was able to easily become the commander of the Chaos Legion, and Marven, Sagas, and Rogin could only serve as his subordinates.

"But wouldn't it be better to be a Chaos Lord?" Marven hinted. "There are very few people who are not interested in this, except for magicians like me. ”

Chaos' promotion is brutal. From a Chaos Warrior to a Chaos Chosen Warrior, from a Chaos Chosen Warrior to a Chaos Champion, from a Chaos Champion to a Chaos Lord, from a Chaos Lord to a veritable Chaos Lord, then to become a god, and finally to ascend to the Demons. Every step means a leap forward, and it means a huge effort and a cost. Sometimes, no amount of effort or cost will allow you to cross the abyss ahead.

Although it is true that there are many talented lucky people who have risen through the ranks by leaps and bounds, it is rumored everywhere that a certain Chaos Warrior performed well on the battlefield and then became a champion samurai recognized by the gods in three strokes. But those were just the exceptions, and nine out of ten Chaos believers stopped at some point on this path to advancement.

"If you have such a good opportunity, you probably keep it for yourself. Sagas said coldly.

"This ...... I can swear to Tzeentch that I'm not interested in becoming a true Chaos Lord. Marven said very seriously. Whether the oath in Tzeentch's name is valid or not is questioned for the time being, but Ken said such a thing, adding a little bit of truth.

However, Marvin himself knew that he was not lying. He really wasn't lying. The current Marven is ostensibly a Chaos Wizard Lord, but in fact he is already a god. It is true that he is no longer interested in this position - because he has crossed this difficult ladder and reached a higher position.

"Well, let's hear it. Sagas said lazily.

"It's actually very simple, it's to replace the Bloodfang Lord. Marven said. "Take advantage of our Count of Ashrufat......"

"I'm afraid he won't be able to beat the Bloodfang Lord. ”

"Oh, I think so too. Marven agreed. "If the two of them come and fight fairly...... Whether it's solo combat or leading an army, I'll put the bet on the Bloodfang Lord's side of victory. But the premise of this is 'fairness', isn't it? If it's not a fair fight, then the outcome is very questionable. ”

"I don't know what you mean......"

"If the Bloodfang Lord fails, then who will take his command?" Marven asked.

"But once he is defeated, the army is finished! who needs to care about the command of an army that no longer exists?"

"That's right!" Marven said. "But...... What if, for some reason, the war is defeated, but the army can hold on?"

"You mean skirmishes? That's not the best thing. The victory or defeat of a small battle cannot shake the Bloodfang Lord's position as commander. Other than that, after this battle, I think even the Bloodfang Lord will become more cautious. Want to kill the Bloodfang Lord in a skirmish...... Well...... If I'm not mistaken, the Bloodfang Lord should be on his way back to the base camp, right?"

"No, no, no, of course I didn't mean that. How could the victory or defeat of a small battle shake his position as commander-in-chief? It was even more difficult to kill him on the battlefield. Our Bloodfang Lord...... It's no ordinary person. If you want me to say, it is not easy to kill him on the battlefield, and his strength alone is enough to kill the encirclement. Marven hurriedly explained. "But your last guess is right. He's coming back. ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

"A ...... Small failures. Of course, losses are inevitable, but there are ways to keep them to a minimum. No loss of vitality. ”

"What do you mean......" Sagas finally understood. "Take advantage of our Ashrufat?"

Marven smiled but didn't say a word.

If the Bloodfang Lord had to retire, who would take the throne? Sagas suddenly realized that he would have a chance to come to power. If she takes command of the Chaos Legion and defeats the Southerners, it means a clear outcome.

In either case, she would have been given a territory under her control, as well as an army. On the plus side, the Southerner has no backhand, and he can dominate a new land conquered by the forces of Chaos. At the end of the day, if the southerners' castle is still gnawed, then she can go back and take the White Castle for herself. In that case, the Bloodfang Lord's resistance would have been futile (if he had been alive at the time). For the gods will undoubtedly reward her for her victory, and punish the Bloodfang Lord for her defeat.

"But...... In any case, a defeat will inevitably lead to a great decline in the morale and combat effectiveness of the army...... It was much more difficult to defeat the southerners' army. ”

"Hehe, so other conditions are needed. Marven said. "Let's say, we know when their general will die. As soon as the general dies, the army will inevitably be leaderless in a short period of time...... Think about it, as soon as the commander-in-chief dies, our army immediately attacks...... In this case, what doubts are there about victory?"

"How can you be sure when Ashrufat will die?" asked Sagas. "According to the differences in human constitution, the onset of scarlet spots also varies in duration. ”

"When the scarlet spots attack, it will not work. But what if we first promised him a cure for this disease...... For the sake of this promise, he will certainly do what we tell us. When the Bloodtooth Lord is finished, I'll tell him a 'cure' that actually kills him...... Then, as soon as we planned, it was all as we planned. ”

"Will he believe it?"

"Can he not believe it? I believe that there is still a little possibility, and if he doesn't believe it, he can only wait for the evil disease to die. Can you guess what humans would have chosen in that situation?"

Sagas hesitated. But let's be honest, Tzeentch's plan is very feasible. She weighed carefully in her heart, and did not speak for a long time.

"Marven, I really can't believe that such a good opportunity will be given to me. You could have done it yourself!"

"That's right, I could have kept a qiē hidden in my heart and secretly implemented it. Or you can tell someone else about the idea. Marven said. "Why didn't I do that, of course, because I needed a reliable ally. You've helped me a lot before, and I think it's an opportunity to repay me. ”
