Chapter 173: The Void of the Heart
"一qiē顺lì, master."
After repelling Kafka, Enoa returned to Jenn's side once more, reporting to Jenn with a soft smile. Hearing Enoa's voice, Jenn nodded in satisfaction, then put down the red wine in his hand, and then turned his head to look out the window at the halfway point of the mountain, where it was still calm.
"I really didn't expect that the other party really didn't take action........."
Elise frowned in surprise and exclaimed in disbelief. In fact, when Enoa went to fight Kafka, Elise was still a little worried. After all, there are three Legendary Rank Beings in the Golden City itself, and now that Enoa is going to fight Kafka, it will inevitably attract their attention. So Elise has been worried about whether the other party will take advantage of the opportunity, and if that's the case, then things will become troublesome.
But what Elise didn't expect was that the three legendary powerhouses in the Golden City didn't even move, not even the slightest temptation, but watched Enoa repel Kafka, and didn't make any move in the end. This was a little incomprehensible to her.
"That's the human heart, Elise."
Hearing Elise's exclamation, the corners of Jenn's mouth curled slightly, revealing a smug smile.
"Don't look at them as human beings walking in the sun, in fact, the dark Cheng dù in their hearts is not much different from the dark region. The Golden City and the Ten Towns have never dealt with each other, and now that the situation in the city is unknown, they naturally will not risk their lives. And if they took 10,000 steps back, even if they chose to help, the general could have found an excuse to throw the pot back and then take the opportunity to slip away. Instead of rushing out stupidly and asking for trouble. Why don't you observe here and see if the general can find out who is invading the Golden City............ Even if the other party accidentally dies in battle. Anyway, it's not the people of the Golden City who are dead, so why should they care? ”
Said here. Jenn reached out, picked up the glass next to him and shook it gently, then tasted the next glass.
"The enemy is still in the mood to fight, and I like that......... The human heart is really an interesting thing. ”
As he spoke, Jenn raised his head again, glanced at the noble quarter halfway up the mountainside, and paused for a moment on the mage tower that burned with magical flames. Then he turned his head and stood up.
"Alright. There's no problem here for the time being, Enoa, you and Elise are in charge of guarding here first, and I'll come as soon as I go. ”
Hearing Jenn's order, Enoa smiled and nodded, while Elise frowned a little puzzled and asked.
"What are you going to do? Master? ”
"Go and prepare some surprises for the upcoming braves, don't worry, those guys won't dare to attack for a while."
As he spoke. Jenn's figure disappeared into the illusion of the portal.
Looking at the figure of Jenn leaving, Elise couldn't help but show a dazed expression, to be honest, the reason why she asked questions before. A large part of the journey was the uneasiness that Jenn would leave him. Strange to say, Elise also knows, although she is very talented. At the age of less than twenty, he had already become a high-level mage, and he was only one step away from entering the realm of an archmage. But genius is only genius after all. It only shows that you have the strength to become a strong person, not a real strong person. Humanity is weak though. But the Legendary Realm is the same, whether you're human, bloodborne, undead or goblins, orcs. As long as you step into the realm of legends, there is no one to deal with. And Elise also knows very well that with her current strength, even with the help of the characteristics of a mage, there is no good fruit to eat against those legendary powerhouses.
But even so, when Jenn asked her to fight before, Elise did not hesitate at all, and she was not even worried that those legendary powerhouses would come to her trouble. The thought of Jenn by her side made Elise feel as if she was leaning against a big tree, and she was not afraid of any trouble from a legendary powerhouse.
But now that Jenn said she was leaving, she panicked. Although Jenn was only leaving for a short time, Elise also felt as if she had lost her backbone, for fear that those strong men would attack them while Jenn was leaving. It's not really a big deal, though, because Jenn built the portal here, and as long as she and Enoa drill into the portal when they see something wrong, nothing will happen. But Elise still felt uneasy, and Jenn's absence from her side always made her feel a little uneasy.
It was only then that Enoa's soft voice came to her ears.
"Don't worry, Miss Elise, the master has his own measure, you just have to do your own thing."
"Miss Enoa............"
Hearing this, Elise turned her head and looked at the girl beside her.
"Aren't you worried at all? What if the owner's judgment is wrong? Legendary powerhouses all have their own unique methods, and I admit that the master's grasp and judgment of people's hearts are very reasonable, but it is impossible for him to probe the strength of each legendary powerhouse. In case ........."
"Everything always doesn't go as planned."
Enoa's voice was as soft and gentle as ever. It doesn't even sound like the attitude of a necromantic creature should have. But the firmness wrapped in the words cannot be changed.
"As subordinates, all we have to do is obey and trust, I trust the master, and that has never changed. Even if his judgment is wrong. ”
"Even if his judgment is wrong?"
"Of course."
In response to Elise's inquiry, Enoa smiled and nodded.
"No one in this world can be omniscient, Miss Elise, the demon kings of the lower realms have survived for thousands of years, but they still make many mistakes. Otherwise, the main plane would not have fallen into the hands of those gods. The same is true of the master, who has told me more than once that the human heart is actually the most difficult to guess, but because of this there is fun. It's better to be able to guess naturally. It doesn't really matter if you can't guess. ”
"Why?"
Hearing this, Elise blinked in surprise. She was born in the Shadows, but she was not a resident of the lower realms. Naturally, I don't know much about the strange thoughts and thoughts of the demons.
"It's simple. For the demons, any extraneous branch will lead things to the good side, so the owner is still wishing that something bad would happen in the middle, because this will be fun......... Moreover, a strong ruler always has to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations. Always expecting the world's qiē to do what he wants, even if it is a god in the gods, it is probably difficult to do this. ”
As she spoke, Enoa winked playfully at Elise.
"So Miss Elise, as a subordinate. All we have to do is fill in the gaps. We are our masters' subordinates, not slaves, and you should know the difference. ”
Hearing this, Elise blushed, and then lowered her head in embarrassment. Seeing the expression of the eldest lady of the bloodline, a hint of amusement flashed in Enoa's eyes, and then she turned her head and looked at the quiet city outside.
For a moment, a silent atmosphere filled the room.
Jenn didn't care what was wrong with his harem. In fact, if he turned up the panel to observe now, he would be surprised to find that Elise's loyalty had changed from the original ★ to ★ ☆. But for Jenn, he has more important things to attend to.
After attacking the Golden City, Jenn now finally has a territory on the surface. But there are too few monsters to protect this area. Dungeons can't just rely on traps. And it costs money to maintain and repair traps, which is much more than the cost of hiring monsters. Aliens alone are obviously not enough, and in fact, Jenn has always held them in the palm of his hand. Use it as your own secret unit. That's why he never let the alien be exposed to other people's eyes, and beyond that. Although the number of necromancers awakened by Enoa is huge, their strength is not good. In this case. Summoning new monsters is already imperative.
And after taking the Golden City, Jenn's resources have also increased a lot, but he no longer has to worry about the lack of resources.
So after returning to the dungeon in the dark region through the guò portal, Jenn quickly arrived at the Dark Sanctuary and began to prepare for the summoning again. Now among the six attributes, only the three attributes of "Natural", "Divine" and "Dark" are still vacant, and Jenn can only think of a way from this aspect. Of course, he wouldn't want to summon an army of "sacred" attributes to defend the Golden City, otherwise the Templar Order would definitely be the first to come to the door to teach these pretending gods a lesson. Then there is "nature" and "darkness".
In fact, Jenn could also disband the "Banshee Guard" and re-empty the necromantic position, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do so for the time being. After all, the banshee doesn't cost any resources, and it's a good choice to keep it for pretending to be a ghost. And the real undead are so flawed that it won't be much better to summon anything else.
The "natural" attribute is not good, although it is said that the elves will not come to find trouble for themselves, but Jenn plans to leave the two attribute positions of "natural" and "sacred" to the side of his identity as a "knight", and then put the "dark", "necromancy" and "anomaly" here in the dungeon, so that his two identities are three on each side, just balanced, and can also perfectly solve the problem of upgrading the racial army. In fact, now in Jenn's team, the fastest upgrades are the aliens, and they have now directly broken through the first boundary, in addition to having [Particularity], even their attack power has risen to the level of two stars, becoming more and more ferocious and terrifying. Jenn was sure that when his dungeon was upgraded again, the number of these aliens would double again, and by that time they would be some of the most terrifying monsters on the continent.
And the slowest upgrade is undoubtedly the banshees, Jenn is completely using them as a façade, basically never fight, pity these banshees all day long like lonely ghosts and ghosts around, but fortunately they are undead, no complaints, otherwise would not have cursed Jenn to death.
The necromancers can't be disbanded for the time being, so for Jenn, all that's left is "Dark". (To be continued......)
