After more than a month of suffering in the battle reports, and seeing the stiff reactions of a large number of my subordinates who were already pale, I knew that I still had to try my best. At least, in my opinion, this could at least increase the hope of my subordinates, and at the same time reduce the possibility of me opening Pandora's box... At least, I don't want to become something that is neither human nor ghost...
"Yaruo, I want to know... what is your identity among the elves?" Facing Yaruo, who has followed me for several years, I knew that I could only make use of this innocent elf.
"I... I... My mother is the Fairy Queen..."
God, the Queen of Elves? The words that Yaruo dared to say really shocked me. Although I knew that Yaruo was not a simple person, I never dared to believe that my luck would be so good.
"Listen! Yaruo, tell me, have I ever done anything to let you down since you've been with me?"
"... No!" After thinking with her head tilted, Yaruo's playful mouth suddenly uttered two words that I love to hear the most. "Not only that, it can be said that the master is very good to Yaruo! Yaruo has not only gained a lot of knowledge in these years, but also enjoyed a material life that she could never enjoy in the Lost Forest..."
"But, Yaruo, you should know now that your people are helping other races to attack my people. If this situation continues, not only will humans be extinct, but you, Yaruo, will have to go back to your previous life. But, there is still a chance... If, Yaruo, you can convince your mother to let elves and humans live in peace, then I promise that not only will I abolish all laws that enslave elves among humans, but I will also let the entire elf race enjoy everything you once enjoyed..."
Unconsciously, I even lied to Yaruo a little. From abolishing the elf trade to letting all elves enjoy the same treatment as Yaruo, to be honest, I have not been able to fulfill any of these promises so far. But in order to achieve my goal, I can no longer care about so much.
As Yaruo swore to me that she would persuade her mother and then turn around and leave, I couldn't help but think about the two promises I made. To fulfill these two promises, in addition to being able to intimidate the entire continent and change the laws of various countries, I must at least be able to manage at least one country under peaceful conditions for several years, so that I can provide a high-quality life for tens of thousands of elves. For now, all of this is a blank check... Of course, if humans lose the war, then I can only bounce the check...
Afterwards, I summoned a survivor warrior who had been teleported with me to the outside of the Canglang defense line and was played with by the white dragon. After instructing him in person, he set off with two magicians, carrying a large number of crystals, gemstones, glass beads and other items.
After that, after receiving my instructions, groups of envoys dispersed in all directions. In addition to a large number of envoys seeking peace, there were also many liaison officers I used to contact the resistance forces of various human countries...
After sending off all the messengers and liaison officers, I locked myself in the command tower on the top floor of the Iron Fortress. I drank wine that cost as much as diamonds, but I didn't feel any enjoyment at all. Anxiety and panic filled my entire inner world.
I don't know why God sent me to this world with a lightning bolt? I also don't know what I have brought to myself or to the people of this world. Maybe I brought some military technology, some killing tools, or death to this world...
From the time I came to this world until now, a few years later, I found myself in various wars. From the civil war in the Kastark Empire, to the local war between the Kastark Empire and the Senke Federation, then the full-scale war between the East and West Continents, and then the racial war between humans and beastmen...
All of this is not what I want to see... According to my original wish, since I can't go back to the original time and space, then I can live my life in peace and without worries in this world, this is all I hope for. I don't care about nobles, generals, glory and wealth...
But now, although I have unlimited power and even almost ascended the throne, I don't feel any happiness at all, and I even feel extremely helpless. Thinking back to the little things on earth, I really miss that carefree life, and I often have a thought in my mind: how great it would be if I could go back to the past! Unfortunately, this possibility is almost zero for me now.
I shook off these unrealistic thoughts and started to deal with various matters again. After all, if I couldn't leave this world, I would have to rely on my own efforts to save my life.
*************************************************** *****************************
Time flies, and nearly a month has passed in the blink of an eye. After some diplomatic efforts and armed resistance, various reports from the front line flowed back to me again. Just like last time, the troops of various countries are still retreating, although in the war reports, the armies of various countries occasionally mentioned how many tens of thousands of enemies were killed, and that they moved to a certain place to find a chance to fight. But in the hands of a discerning person like me, how can I not see the meaning of these war reports? Moved to a certain place? Is this an obvious retreat? In this regard, I very much doubt whether the people on this continent are the reincarnation of the National Revolutionary Army during the Anti-Japanese War? Otherwise, how could I see so familiarly the word "turn and advance", the most commonly used word in the two retreats used by the Kuomintang during the Anti-Japanese War
As the war report arrived, my hope of finding a peaceful solution through diplomatic means was extinguished. First, the Queen of the Elf Tribe not only rejected my peace intentions on the grounds that the alliance could not be betrayed, but also detained Yaruo and Yunyue. She also declared that if I dared to use the master-servant contract to harm them, she would indiscriminately massacre the human territories that the elves passed through... For this, I could only smile bitterly. Although I didn't care about the word "massacre" threatened by the Queen of the Elf, I still cared about the days that Yaruo and Yunyue had been by my side for the past few years, so I didn't want to use the contract to harm them.
Secondly, after Yiya met the white dragon, the stupid dragon actually asked me to use all the crystals and gems in the entire Kingdom of Yaen in exchange for him to ask the leader of the dragon clan to give up the agreement with the demon clan... Hearing this, I almost didn't plan to continue negotiating with the dragon clan. These conditions were not something I could agree to. Because even if I could use the magic crystals of the entire Kingdom of Yaen to please the greedy white dragon, or even the entire dragon clan. But what would happen next? Without the magic crystals, the troops of the Kingdom of Yaen would be like a naked beauty with no ability to resist. So after those damn dragons retreated, what should I use to deal with the beastmen, demons and other races
Afterwards, envoys from other races also gradually brought news, the contents of which were basically the same as the above two, either saying that allies must not be betrayed, or that they were a group of greedy bastards who forgot their principles for the sake of profit.
"Sir, tell me what you say! We will do whatever you say. At worst, we can all fight for our lives holding a magic scroll. Even if all of us humans are wiped out, I think we can drag a few of their tribes to hell together..." Shen Qiang, who also read the reply letter on the table, revealed his tough side as a quasi-soldier.
"Risting my life? Hey! It seems that I have been living a comfortable life for too long. The previous battles were too smooth, and I don't know how to play with the enemy... Pass the order to open all the warehouses in the second storage center, and let the people below unseal all the supplies for me... Play with me? Want to play with me to death? Then we will die together!" I was suddenly inspired, and immediately remembered the various special things that I had refined on a large scale by some alchemists after I had just established a foothold in the Kingdom of Yan. Since they don't want me to have an easy life and want me to be in a desperate situation, why should I endure it
Afterwards, as my orders were issued one by one, the entire Kingdom of Yann began to operate intensively. Batches of flying ships bypassed the blockade of the enemy's front line and headed for civilian gathering places and political centers of the beastmen, elves, dwarves and other races. Several armored warships that were still in the development and trial production stage also carried a large number of ordinary civilian transport ships and carried a large amount of supplies to the Demon Continent...
Standing on the highest point of the Iron Fortress, I looked at the flying ships and boats in the sky and on the distant coast that were constantly busy, and I couldn't help but think viciously, I wondered if after experiencing this incident, in the history of this world, I would become an existence like Bin Laden, or I would even surpass him... After all, the power he controlled was far different from what I could achieve now.
The King of Terror? The Lord of Evil? Or some other more negative title? I don't care about these. As long as I can achieve my goal, as long as I can make those races withdraw, as long as I can save humanity... Of course, I can save a poor earthling like me from a foreign land. I can give up everything, not to mention that what I am dealing with is not a real person at all... (To be continued)
