Chapter 581: Mysterious Self-confidence
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Everyone, follow me. As long as we break through the fortress city and enter the Holy Dragon Kingdom, I will reward every elf with a bottle of water from the Spring of Life! Whoever captures either Watson or King Landhar III can be my heir. In addition to that, capturing or killing the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s important figures will also get you rewarded handsomely,” the Elven King shouted. Then, the elves behind him began to shout.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The Elven King felt the power surge. His heart was filled with confidence. He did not know why, but he was confident they could break through the fortress city. He had been nervous before that. He had even sent assassins to investigate the situation in the fortress city.
‘Perhaps that confidence comes from the heavens, hinting that I can conquer the Holy Dragon Kingdom.’
The Elven King’s eyes burned with raging flames. His confidence came not only from the previous night but also from the beast that he had created after using supernatural evolution.
That beast was called the Mountain Behemoth Synthetic Beast. It was dozens of meters long, with gears on the inside, and its outside was wrapped in flesh and blood. It looked like a huge magical beast mixed with metal and flesh.
The inspiration for the Mountain Behemoth Synthetic Beast came from the deep-sea submarine he had seen in the fortress city. The Elven King did not know the principle behind the transformation of the Deep-sea Behemoth Submarine into a magical beast. However, he could use supernatural evolution to give life to non-living creatures to achieve the same effect. Compared to the submarine, the Mountain Beast Synthetic Beast was more adaptable to land battles, and it was the same as the deep-sea submarine. The Mountain Beast Synthetic Beast could also change its form to become a magical beast. That was achieved by using supernatural evolution power.
“Combining inanimate rocks with flesh and blood with the supernatural evolution can create powerful weapons of war. Such a beast can unleash the power of at least a diamond-tier elite, and I can have hundreds of similar fusion beasts!” the Elven King muttered excitedly.
The Mountain Behemoth Synthetic Beast was one of his trump cards. Other than him and a few elders, most of the elves in the elven army were affected by the power of evolution. Their strength had risen to platinum-tier.
All the platinum-tier mythical creatures, weapons, and armor were stimulated by the power of evolution and could continue to evolve.
Some powerful soldiers had consumed water from the Spring of Life and would not die. Some weapons could continue to evolve and not be damaged. Even the Elven King did not know how he would lose that battle.
“Your Majesty, we discovered enemies above our heads. Should we attack?” Bathed in a confident aura, an elf suddenly flew toward the Elven King and said in a low voice.
The Elven King looked at the sky. He saw a few figures riding Pegasuses in the sky. From afar, he saw a young man and three women. The young man and one of the women looked very much like humans. The remaining two women were elves. The Elven King thought that one of the elves looked familiar.
“Is that Delta?”
The Elven King squinted his eyes. He was a peak platinum-tier elite anyway. He quickly identified those people. A look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
“Look at those people with Delta. That looks like Watson. It means that they had succeeded in their mission. Did they really capture Watson? Quick, tell the other elves not to attack. Get them to come down. ”
The Elven King waved his hand, and the soldiers did as they were told. The elven army, which had been galloping, suddenly stopped and looked up into the sky.
Finally, Watson and others were brought to the ground.
Watson could see the entire elven army in front of him. The 100,000 elves were wearing emerald-green leaf armor, obviously made of leaves. However, he had a feeling that it was even stronger than platinum-tier ores. The bows and arrows flashed with weak light as if they were breathing.
It was clear that those armor and weapons were alive, and their quality surprised Watson. A few days ago, those elves were only silver and gold-tier archers, but most of them had become platinum-tier elites. The elves’ strength had improved by leaps and bounds in just a few days. That made Watson even more curious about the elven race chess pieces.
While Watson was sizing up the elves before him, the Elven King was also sizing him up.
‘He’s a youth, but he has no fear in the face of the elven army. I heard from Landon that Watson once relied solely on strength to throw him onto the ground. He’s a cultivation genius! He even built those mysterious ships. The sea folks and the dragon race listen to his orders. No wonder he could do that. Those who have such courage are not ordinary people.’
The more he looked at Watson, the more he could not help but sigh in his heart. At the same time, he felt a sense of envy.
He was envious of King Landhar III. The human kingdom had a genius like Watson. If the elves had a similar genius, they would have an easier invasion of the Holy Dragon Kingdom.
Of course, it was not impossible to achieve that goal then.
“Delta, I didn’t expect you to capture Watson. I didn’t have any expectations for you to complete the task of capturing Watson successfully, but you have completely exceeded my expectations! Oh, right! There’s one elf that I don’t recognize. Where are the other assassins? Why haven’t I seen any of them?”
The Elven King seemed to have seen the elf beside Delta. They looked familiar, but they were also unfamiliar. He did not mind because he did have to see many elves in the Elven Kingdom every day. How could he remember everyone’s appearance?
“Your Majesty, I’m sorry. Beta and the others are not here. ” Delta hesitated as she spoke. The Elven King understood her intentions, and his expression became gloomy.
“Is that so? They did not come back? Were they captured? It’s alright. We’ll go and rescue them now.” The Elven King quickly regained his senses. That made Delta stunned. She did not know how to continue.
Initially, she had planned to tell the Elven King that Beta and the others had died. She also wanted to explain that she had not captured Watson, and instead, Watson had captured her. However, seeing the Elven King’s expression, she could not bear to continue.
It was not strange for the Elven King to have such thoughts because he knew that the Spring of Life would grant the elves eternal life. So, he would not even think that the elves could die. He thought they were trapped in the fortress city.
“Watson, the elves will soon conquer the fortress city and take over the Holy Dragon Kingdom! The humans will become our slaves! As a rare genius among humans, it’s a pity to let you die with them. I’ll let you live if you can pledge your loyalty to me.”
While Delta was hesitating, the Elven King turned to look at Watson. His words revealed his confidence that Watson would die if he did not follow the king. That made Delta subconsciously cover her face. Knowing Watson’s ability, she was afraid that he would attack the Elven King in a fit of anger.
The Elven King dared to issue such an invitation to Watson even before she could figure out what was going on.. She did not know where that mysterious confidence came from.
