The Bizarre Adventure of the Warhammer Elves

Chapter 376
It has to be said that the richness of the gift from Ainz even made Rohan feel flattered and joyful, so that he didn't know what kind of artifact he should look for in return.

But soon he left all these complicated affairs behind, because he will have a grand war waiting for him next.

———Nagarond, Castle Black

At this moment, the dark castle is full of Naggarond's black guards in full battle, examining the fear lords who are about to enter the castle to meet His Majesty the Witch King with vigilant eyes.

The summoning order from Castle Black has been sent to every fear lord in Naggaroth. Such a large-scale summoning of the lords is undoubtedly a signal that the war is coming!

At the moment, on the watchtower at the top of Castle Black, His Majesty the Witch King was silently watching the snowflakes flying outside and the hundreds of Dreadlords who were being checked below.

And behind him, Kain's Assassin Grand Master, Kul, was kneeling on one knee and began to report on the Dreadlords who refused to accept the call:

"My lord, Morena, the dread lord from Hal Khazra, has rejected your conscript on the grounds that a strong wind of magic has blown up in the northern wilderness recently, and a large number of chaotic forces are coming south to invade our north." Great Wall."

"Is this news true?"

"It's true. The Kane assassins have discovered a large number of Norscan warbands in the wasteland outside the Great Wall. Morena has asked other lords for additional personnel, but only Rohan has provided military support."

Speaking of this, a strange color flashed in Kuer's eyes, and he was very satisfied that his cheap apprentice did not dereliction of duty.

After all, His Majesty the Witch King has not removed Rohan's title, so now he is still the 'Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Great Wall Alliance' in name, and it is still his duty to be responsible for resisting the invasion of the Chaos Warband.

This time, not only did Rohan not do any stupid actions to preserve his strength, but he actively chose to support Hal Khazra, who had nothing to do with him. The loyalty he showed is indeed commendable:

Not only did they provide fine-steel armor and food supplies enough to equip [-] Drucci recruits, but they even provided a large number of high-quality repeating crossbows and ballistas. The sheer scale made many lords stare blankly!
Many dreadlords who disagreed with Rohan privately referred to Rohan as the 'Lord of Generous Rohan', mocking his extravagance and waste of resources.

In the view of court officials including Kur, the supplies that Luo Han has given out now are actually the compensation he got from the Higgs family at the beginning, which is a reckless act of prodigal.

But in the eyes of the so-called Loyalist lords including Morathi, Rohan's ability to provide such large-scale military assistance without asking for anything in return is simply a "model of the times" existence!
With such a loyal minister coordinating and assisting His Majesty the Witch King, why worry about not being able to take back Ulthuan?

I'm afraid that Rohan, who has just returned to the Warhammer world, doesn't know that his act of military support to Morena out of friendship has already gained the favor of many loyal lords.

"Those lowly monkeys actually choose to launch an invasion at this time!"

However, His Majesty the Witch King did not pay attention to Rohan's contribution to supporting Hal Khazra, but instead focused all his attention on the Norsca warbands who invaded from the north.

This was not because he was unclear about rewards and punishments, but simply because he knew that Luohan didn't care about these weapons and equipment at all.

Ever since he was led by Rohan to experience the richness of Westeros last time, he already knew that the wealth of the other party might be far beyond his imagination, so naturally he didn't take it to heart.

To give an inappropriate example, if an ordinary working-class person donates tens of thousands of yuan to the disaster area, then he will most likely receive praise and awards from the majority of netizens.

But if the person who donated is a rich man worth hundreds of billions, then the situation is completely different!

Under such circumstances, netizens with great powers are likely to criticize the rich man because he donated too little, and they may even ridicule him in real life.

Undoubtedly, although Rohan's willingness to provide military support to Hal Khazra did satisfy His Majesty the Witch King, he wanted to count on being rewarded for it...

That's too much to think about!

Just when His Majesty the Witch King was thinking about how to deal with the northern Norsca war gang, Kuran Blackhand's report suddenly came from outside the room:
"Your Majesty the Witch King, all the Dreadlords have been reviewed, and now they are waiting for your next instruction in the conference hall."

"Let's go and see my 'loyal' lords."

His Majesty the Witch King, whose thoughts were disturbed, took a last look at the snowflakes that were still falling outside, and then flung his cloak violently and left the watchtower.

It is imperative for him to counterattack against Ulthuan, and it is absolutely impossible for him to give up easily because of the threat of mere Norsca and Chaos creatures!
———Castle Black, Conference Hall

Since His Majesty the Witch King suffered from PTSD due to being burned by the holy fire of Asuryan, the lighting of the entire Castle Black relies on the magical luster on the surrounding rock walls and the dimly glowing night pearls.

In the circular meeting hall, hundreds of fear lords are constantly choosing their seats, and being able to sit in the first row of seats in front of His Majesty the Witch King at close range is undoubtedly the ideal goal of all the lords.

But as the saying goes, there are more monks than meat, and the various pretentious fear lords immediately began to quarrel around the few seats in the front row:

"I am the Lord of Dread from Grond Ashlark, and now I order you to give me the front row immediately!"

"I haven't even heard of it. I am the Shakara family from the Tower of Darkness, and I am also the third largest family of Karond Karl. Get out of the way immediately!"

"Hehehe, some stinky people came to our Naggarond to beg for food, right? Our family is responsible for controlling the cold heart road, the main road of Naggaroth. Who dare not let it go?"

……

Countless noble families and dread lords began to quarrel and curse with each other. If it weren't for the weapons confiscated by the black guards in advance, they would have already drawn their swords to each other.

This is not just a simple competition for seats, but also a competition for glory between families. Therefore, even if some down-and-out families are trying to make their faces swollen, they are still unwilling to lose.

It has to be said that although Du Luqi who can be canonized as a fear lord are all powerful fighters, they are also rebellious and arrogant elves.

"Although I have seen such scenes countless times, it is really pleasing to watch these normally high-ranking Druccis arguing like ordinary people."

Luo Han silently found a seat in the second row and sat down, then jokingly looked at the elven nobles huddled in the front row and quarreled, with a sunny and cheerful smile on his face.

When he was a black guard, he was responsible for body searches outside the door and security work, so he was no stranger to the chaos in front of him.

In his opinion, this is just a house-playing game played by a group of aristocratic grandpas whose ancestors followed His Majesty the Witch King to Naggaros to fly the three banners on the black dragon. There is nothing surprising about it.

However, just when Luohan was about to stay in his seat and watch the show, he suddenly noticed a burly figure wearing a sea dragon cloak sitting beside him, and then said to himself in a dull tone:

"Your recent performance is really impressive. Don't you plan to go to the first row to compete for a position? This is a glorious opportunity to get close to His Majesty the Witch King."

"Please, I used to be the captain of His Majesty's bodyguard. I have been loyally by His Majesty's side for 100 years. Is there still a chance to get close to His Majesty?"

Luo Han turned his head to look at the familiar octopus mask and scarlet eyes beside him, and then asked curiously:

"On the contrary, it's you. The Fallen Heart family is considered one of the best families in Calund Karl. Don't you want to fight with them?"

"Forget it, seeing that ugly monster's face dangling in front of me, I'm afraid I can't help but summon the scarlet double blades and chop him off."

Hearing Rohan's question, Lokcia just shook his head silently, and then looked at the beast lord Lakas who was sitting proudly in the first row, with a faint killing intent in his eyes.

The conflict between him and Lakas can be said to have a long history:
As the most high-quality port city in the Naggaroth region, Calund Karl has always been regarded as its own sphere of influence by the Fallen Heart family, and has never allowed outsiders to get involved.

However, since Caronde Cal is also the largest beast trading city in Drucci, and the zoo in it claims to house all known war beasts in the world, it has been coveted by Lakas for a long time.

After fighting openly and secretly for decades, the tension between Lakas and Loxia has been completely settled, and they each occupy half of the city from then on.

Logically speaking, the struggle between the two families is likely to continue, but the war that is about to start now gives them a chance:
"This meeting is extraordinary. The war with Ulthuan is imminent, and the reason why this idiot Lakas took the initiative to grab the seat in the first row is probably to be selected as the vanguard."

"So that's the case, he is planning to use his military exploits to get His Majesty the Witch King to reward him completely... This is a hard job!"

After listening to Roxia's introduction, Rohan couldn't help but touched his chin and looked at Lakas in the front row, and then the same sarcasm as Noxia's flashed in his eyes.

Where did he have the confidence to be the vanguard of the attack on Ultsuan?
Although Ulthuan's native land has lost its military virtues because it hasn't fought wars all year round, it's just that the high elves living in the inner ring of Ulthuan are relatively extravagant and decadent.

Under the rule of the new Phoenix King Finubar, the Outer Ring of Ulthuan has reactivated the long-abandoned militia system, as well as a large amount of material assistance obtained through trade with the Old World.

He, Lakas, still wants to gain military exploits from the high elves, isn't he afraid of losing his teeth?

"He slept with the Witch King's wife, so he obtained a kind of war hydra that can release the breath of ice. In addition, he has accumulated a lot of wealth over the past few years, which is why he is so reckless."

While Rohan and Lokcia were talking in a low voice, he suddenly felt a somewhat familiar figure sitting behind him, and then heard the gloomy and resentful voice of Marus Blackblade.

Hearing this voice, Luo Han only felt his goosebumps stand up, and then turned his head with a bit of embarrassment and smirked:

"Ahaha...Marus, it's really a pleasure to meet you again."

The relationship between Rohan and Marus used to be pretty good, but since he gave Marus the rebirth pill last time, it almost caused Zakhan to lose control, and Rohan, who felt ashamed, never contacted him again.

This time Marus actually took the initiative to come to the door, I always feel that the visitor is not kind...

Just when Luohan didn't know how to start the conversation, he found that Marus suddenly looked at him with pity, and then said in a complicated tone:

"The taste of being possessed by a demon... must be uncomfortable, right?"

"what?"

"Don't pretend, Zakhan is the great demon of Slaanesh. It can feel that a demon of Slaanesh is sealed in your body, so I will share with you some experience about puzzle demons."

Speaking of this, the sympathy on Marus' originally gloomy face became more obvious, and he even took the initiative to talk about the scene and details that needed attention when he first met Zhakan.

From his point of view, Luo Han probably embarked on a path similar to his own, and even the possessed demons were all Slaanesh demons, it was simply fate!
For a moment, Marus even forgot the experience that he was almost killed by the rebirth pill, and then he held Rohan's shoulder and began to tell the past.

Luo Han looked at Marus who was talking with some embarrassment, he didn't know what to say to this friend who came to him to share his experience, so he could only silently listen to the pain he had suffered.

What can he do?
Is it too cruel to tell Marus that he can actually use the Crown of Domination to control the demons in his body at any time?

"His Majesty the Witch King is here!"

Fortunately, this torment did not last long. As the door of the conference hall was opened, the familiar midnight armor and dark green pupils appeared in the center of the hall.

The originally noisy conference hall immediately became silent. This scene could not help but remind Luo Han of the primary school classroom where he was receiving the gaze of the head teacher, so he straightened his back obediently.

Looking at the faces full of fear and fanaticism in the hall, His Majesty the Witch King couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction, and then came to the center of the hall and said to the surrounding lords:
"I think you all already know the reason for summoning you, so let me say a few words..."
