Section 106 Homeopathy

It must be said that multi-faceted win-win is the realm pursued by businessmen like Ah Jin. Perhaps for Ah Jin, it is enough to achieve a "win-win". But for believers in the Lord of Deceit, "win-win" is far from the result. This is also the essential difference between Tzeentch and a businessman: a businessman wants to bind many sides together with interests, because this is the best way to maintain long-term interests. But believers in the Lord of Deceit seek the best of their own short-term gain - usually in ways that harm others and self-interest.

In the so-called "win-win" conditions to get benefits...... In most cases, it is long-term rather than short-term.

Ashrufat thought about what he should do, and the easiest way was to kill all the people gathered here - but that was not in line with Tzeentch's principles. This may solve the problem, but in reality the benefits are not significant. Because although these people secretly united to try to fight him, they themselves were an indispensable part of the army's combat power. If they all die, it means that the combat effectiveness of the entire army will be greatly reduced.

In that case, he had to do it differently.

Ashrufat made a circle and came to the point directly opposite the curtain door of the tent. There were several soldiers on duty around the tent, so he could not get close. Still, after spending a little time, he found a suitable observation spot.

He waited patiently, and after some time, the discussion finally ended, and the face of the man who came out in the lead was so familiar that even Ashrufat was stunned.

"Astiana ......," Ashruphat muttered as he stared at the man who had come out.

The man had a face that closely resembled that of the Chaos Lord Astiana - although Ashruphat and Astiana had not met many times, he was sure he was not mistaken, but he was different in age.

Although Ashruphat already knew that the Chaos Gods possessed unimaginable powers, it was not surprising that someone could be rejuvenated. However, Ashruphat did not think that Astiana would be rewarded with such generosity. Tzeentch could never have given Astienna such a great benefit for no reason.

He looked closely, and saw that the man was still a little different from Astiana - his shoulders were slightly wider than Astiana's, and his height was slightly shorter than Astiana's. In addition, the person has a striking scar on his cheek, which is particularly noticeable when viewed from the side.

Speaking of which, in the beginning, Astiana had mentioned that she wanted her son to succeed him. Although it is not known how many sons he has (Ashrufat didn't care about this before, so he doesn't know anything), but since Astiana wants his son to inherit him, it at least means that his son has this potential. As mentioned earlier, the Chaos side pays attention to strength, not origin and bloodline, and from Astiana's hesitant reaction that he hopes that his son can inherit, but is not sure that his son will inherit, one of his sons should have the identity of a Chaos Champion.

Well, this should be it.

Eshuruphat hid in the darkness far away - the two sides were too far apart so that Ashruphat could observe each other unscrupulously without being detected. Astiana's son was very bold - for he was not one of the men that Astiana had handed over to Ashrufat. He had infiltrated Ashrufat's barracks - although Astianna and Ashrufat were allies, if he was discovered here, the covenant might not have saved him. No, even further, it would lead to the breakdown of the covenant. There are no allies in this world who would allow you to send a spy to your camp to make trouble.

No, Astiana won't do that, it's too risky, unless the whole thing is a scam from start to finish. But it shouldn't be a hoax, because if it were, it would take decades to devise it, and it would take a lot of work to do - including surviving even if the Immortal Juggernaut was defeated several times. The difficulty of this scam is too great. Although the Lord of Deceit claims to be able to see the other side of time, this is only a "claim" after all. If Tzeentch could really have insight into the future, there would not be four evil gods hostile to each other. The other three were probably defeated by Tzeentch long ago.

Besides, if this is a scam, what does Tzeentch want to get out of this scam? This is completely inconsistent with Tzeentch's style, the benefits are small, but the costs are huge.

If not Astiana, then ...... This kid thought it himself, right?

Ashruphat pondered for a moment, and with his dark vision, he saw Astiana's son walking towards the outskirts of the camp, farther and farther away. He followed. The night is his home turf, and there's no reason not to make the most of it.

The target did not leave the camp, but to a tent on the edge of the camp. A small, ordinary, tent made of animal skins, no different from the one used by ordinary Chaos warriors. Ashrufat thought that the other party wanted to meet someone else here, but the other party just got into the tent and began to strip and rest.

Ashruphat remembered the location of the tent and left. After a short while, he came to another exchange in the camp.

Speaking of which, Ashrufat still spent a little effort on the arrangement of the entire military camp, and its layout was completely in accordance with the military book, the structure was orderly, and it was able to mobilize forces as quickly as possible in the event of an attack. But in this location of the barracks, the situation is completely different. Large and small tents are arranged as they like, and even the orientation of the tent curtain door is chaotic, each with its own choice.

Ashrufat made his way through the jumble of tents to the edge of the largest.

"Sag. Ashrufat shouted through the door. A few minutes later, he saw Sag emerge from the tent - topless, revealing hairy breasts and strong muscles.

That's right, this is the camp of Sag, the sadistic Chaos Champion. During his previous journey, Ashruphat handed over all of the Sadistic warriors who had volunteered to join his command to Commander Sag. Sag is an excellent Chaos Champion in terms of personal force, but his military ability is mediocre. It can even be said that if he could not lead the charge, his military capabilities would be infinitely close to zero. Not only him, but most of the sadistic warriors have this tendency. They are very interested in charging into battle, and they are barely comfortable with forming a whole formation (after all, it allows them to fight better), but they are not interested in logistics, camping, marching routes, etc. Sag has reached a certain level in this regard - just look at the camp and you can see that Sag can't even get his subordinates to camp in an orderly manner.

"My lord?" Sag glanced at the sky in confusion, it was midnight and it was pitch black. And the surroundings are also very calm, not at all like there is any urgent military operation.

Several Chaos warriors emerged from their tents, but seeing the silence around them, and recognizing that it was Ashrufat who was shouting there, they immediately realized that this was not their part.

"Sag, I have something for you to do. Ashrufat said. He said the location of the camp he had memorized. "There's a Chaos Champion there, pretending to be a normal soldier, and go and kill him as fast as you can. He said.

"A Chaos Champion pretending to be a normal soldier? But if he's pretending, how can I be sure he's a normal soldier or a Chaos Champion?"

"That's okay. Ashrufat replied easily. "It doesn't matter if you kill the wrong one. Of course, it's even better if it's right. Bring me that guy's head...... Wait, you better keep your head for a while, and then give it to me when I ask you. As for the time...... It may not be appropriate to do it at night, as it will give him a chance to escape. I'll build yì you will act tomorrow. ”

"What excuse do you use to do it?"

"Do the followers of the Blood God need a reason to kill? I don't think anyone cares about that. Ashrufat said.

"Very happily. "Sadistic believers are always very welcoming to killing. Being able to play against a Chaos Champion is something that Sag couldn't ask for.

When Ashrufat returned to his tent, he was surprised to find Tarek waiting for him.

During this time, in order to plan for that surprise attack on the Immortal Lord Jakes, Aerufar received some additional reinforcements - not ordinary soldiers, but Chaos Wizards. He asks Tzeentch for help, and Tzeentch sends a group of regular Tzeentch wizards with magic disks to help. Therefore, as a wizard apprentice, Tarek's position in the army suddenly became a little awkward, even dispensable.

Only Ashrufat himself knew very well that these sorcerers were not to be trusted, and that they came by Tzeentch's orders and would inevitably leave because of Tzeentch's orders. If one day, he has to have a showdown with Tzeentch, then these wizards will become Tzeentch's cards.

But then again, if that happens, who can be sure of the loyalty of the others? After all, they are also Tzeentch's followers. Ashrufat could only think so, or hope, that if he could build up enough results, those people would take a little more time to think about it when they made a choice between Tzeentch and him.

So Tarek's position in the army has not changed, and on the surface, he is still a close confidant of Ashrufat. Ashruphat entrusted much of the affairs of the army to the wizard's apprentice. Of course, this is only on the surface. Every Tzeentch believer (especially the High Ones) has learned the fact that no one can be trusted.

"Lord Ashrufat......" Tarek said with a stern expression. Ashruphat made a gesture for the wizard apprentice to enter the tent. The guards on duty outside the tent stood a short distance from the tent door, so that the people in the tent could speak without fear of being heard—unless they shouted loudly.

"My lord, what you are doing is very inappropriate. Tarek said as soon as he entered the tent.

"What's that? Do you mean I killed Oba?"

"It wouldn't have mattered to kill him," Tarek replied. "But you chose an inopportune time...... Of course, you can do it afterwards, but you just kill him and don't do anything else......"

"What follow-up do I need to do?" Ashrufat asked rhetorically. "Didn't I ask you to hold a funeral for him that matches his status as a Chaos Champion?

"But you shouldn't do nothing but the funeral!" called Tarek. "Oba wasn't just one man, he had a bunch of subordinates, a lot of friends, and a lot of people who had a crush on him...... Many of them are unhappy with what you're doing -- it's the kind of public statement. ”

Ashruphat smiled mysteriously. "That's exactly what I wanted. He said.

"Your Excellency, you are ...... Aren't you going to launch a large-scale offensive in the near future?"

"No...... Not only in the near term, but also in the long term. In fact, I don't plan on launching any major offensive. Ashrufat said.

"But you didn't mean ......" Tarek was even more confused. "This swamp is your destination?"
