Chapter 170 – Capturing the City of Dark Elves
Translator: Xaiomoge
However, the glory of the ancient Warlocks had already passed. The dark elves shielded and guided by the Goddess Lolth had already become the rulers of half of the underground world; they were extremely conceited, and even believed themselves to be a race superior to humans. And now, Joana was actually making them surrender to a human; form them, this was an outrageous disgrace.
The upper class dark elves looked at each other, then carefully read the battlefield, pondered for a long time, and eventually deciding to surrender to Yang Feng.
Under the incitement from the Goddess Lolth, the dark elves fought endlessly among themselves. Although this forced the dark elves to rely even more on the Goddess – providing her with even more faith power. But it also gave birth to their second nature of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Therefore, surrender was a common place.
The Goddess Lolth didn’t forbid the dark elves from surrendering either; otherwise, if the dark elves were to fight to the bitter end in their never ending struggles, then the City of Dark Elves would have long since destroyed in their internal struggles.
Many upper class dark elves secretly breathed slight sighs of relief; they didn’t want to risk their lives and fight against those alchemical golems. As upper class, they cherished their lives very much – they were not willing to exchange their lives for those alchemical golems.
Joana looked around, and then said loudly: “Yang Tie, we surrender! Please stop killing our people!”
Yang Feng thought somewhat suspiciously: “They surrendered so easily? What about the Mountain Giants? The Grudge Discarnates? The large area of effect divine spell attacks?”
After reading the records of the several millennia long conflict between the dark elves and the human Warlocks, Yang Feng knew that the dark elves had at least these three trump cards. He was prepared to loose at least 400,000 primary battle robots. But now, the dark elves had chosen to surrender only after he lost 30,000 odd robots – leaving him somewhat bewildered.
“Stop all resistance; drop your weapons and hold your hands high. Those who surrender won’t be killed!” Yang Feng’s mind moved, and the beast-type mechanical bladed robots coldly urged via their loudspeakers.
The dark elven warriors who were blessed by the divine power released by the temple had mustered their courage to fight those despairingly cold, ruthless, and powerful beast-type bladed robots. Now that they had heard Joana’s surrender, they felt cold inside, and their morale had plummeted. They dropped their weapons, and held their hands high; choosing to surrender.
The upper class dark elves had also urged their kin to surrender. The City of Dark Elves swiftly surrendered, before opening the gate and letting the mechanical legion in.
After the dark elves had completely surrendered, the upper class dark elves led by Joana went to have an audience with Yang Feng.
Joanna looked straight at Yang Feng, and said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone: “Marshal Yang Tie, I am Joana, the Great Matriarch of the dark elves. Dark Elven Clan had chosen to acknowledge allegiance towards You; I hope that You can exempt us from the status of slaves.”
Yang Feng took a look at the upper class dark elves before him. Although the upper class dark elves were dark skinned, but their looks were gorgeous and their figures were smoking hot.
When the upper class dark elves saw Yang Feng, they revealed enchanting smiles, stroked coquettishly their hair, and threw flirtatious glances at Yang Feng.
Joana was gorgeous, and had a valiant temperament; she seemed to be incompatible with the upper class dark elves.
Yang Feng said indifferently: “Wasn’t Shayenna the Great Matriarch of the dark elves?”
Joana responded in a neither servile nor overbearing tone: “Shayenna is no longer the Great Matriarch; now I’m the Great Matriarch of the dark elves.”
Joana was a Great Warlock rank expert. With her power not sealed, even though she was inside Yang Feng’s base, but she still had the confidence of escaping from him.
Yang Feng said lightly: “Is Shayenna still alive?”
Joana hesitated for a moment, and then responded: “She is.”
Yang Feng continued lightly: “Give her to me. Then, I need your Dark Elven Clan to follow me and jointly attack the City of Hellions! After capturing the City of Hellions, I will pardon your sin of rebellion, and abolish your status of slaves. As my subjects, you won’t be treated unfairly. Whether humans or dark elves, as long as my rules aren’t violated, then I’ll treat everyone equally.”
The corners of Joana’s mouth rose slightly, and she said decisively: “Very well, Marshal Yang Feng.”
“You’re Yang Feng?”
“How is that possible? Yang Feng doesn’t look like that.”
“...”
The pretty countenances of the upper class dark elves changed and they exclaimed.
Steel City’s forces had drawn the attention of the dark elves. They had spared no costs in order to gather the images of Steel City’s important personnel, and were naturally acquainted with Yang Feng’s appearance.
Yang Feng was slightly alarmed, yet he said indifferently: “What are you talking about? I am Yang Tie, not Marshal Yang Feng.”
“There is no soul! The golem avatar you’re operating is very ingenious; it looks exactly like a living person. If looking from the distance or having a perfunctory look, then even Great Warlock rank experts would find it difficult to see through it. But once one takes a closer look, then one will find out that this golem avatar of yours doesn’t has a soul.”
“Any intelligent life form should have a soul. As someone without a soul, it’s obvious that you are merely an avatar. Steel City’s City Master, Yang Ye, has no interest in women; therefore, only you, Yang Feng, Steel Lord’s only kin, would ask for Shayenna. Also, you’ve said ‘my rules’ which doesn’t leave much room to speculation.” Joana calmly analysed.
Yang Feng’s complexion changed slightly as he stared at Joana; he clapped his hands lightly and said frigidly: “Joana, you’re really smart. Unfortunately, you’re too smart! Haven’t you heard the saying that knowing too much can get you hurt?”
The rock giant Bonardine took a step forward and blocked the exit.
Outside, countless primary battle robots aimed their weapons at the sight of audience.
Dephilia also gave a faint sigh. With a flick of her wrist, the Legend rank secret treasure Snow Ice Box emerged on her lily-white hand. Although she was greatly appreciative of Joana’s intellect, but since Yang Feng had already spoken, she had no choice but to take action.
The corners of Joana’s mouth rose slightly, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a touch of disdain: “You want to keep me here with just the Snow White Madam and that stupid rock giant?”
“Of course it isn’t just limited to them. To use just two Great Warlock rank experts to keep a dark elven legendary expert here, I’m not that naive. But what are your chances of leaving this place with them added into the equation?”
Yang Feng pressed the Dimensional Crest on his chest, and then streams of light flew out from it.
Mofen Demonic Polar Bear, Blue Docfen Demonic Ice Wolf, Amanni Light Wing Icebird, Coloman Boa, one after another, mechanical battle beasts comparable to level-4 extraordinary life forms appeared in the surroundings – exuding Great Warlock rank life force.
A grand total of 10 mechanical battle beasts comparable to level-4 extraordinary life forms had surrounded Joana and the other dark elven experts; exuding terrifying life force while staring at Joana.
While under the mighty pressure from the mechanical battle beasts’ level-4 extraordinary life form rank life force, the pretty complexions of the upper class dark elves changed, and their tender bodies shivered lightly. Even Joana’s beautiful eyes flashed with a touch of dread.
The 10 mechanical battle beast plus Dephilia and the rock giant Bonardine had a 90% probability of killing Joana.
Involuntarily, a touch of regret welled up inside Joana. She hated herself for giving the other party lip just now.
Joana looked straight at Yang Feng, and said faintly: “What now? Do you want to silence us through murder?”
“I’m not keen on silencing others through murder.”
Yang Feng clapped his hands lightly, and a robot holding a vial of Liquid-Metal Nano-Robot Elixir came forward.
Yang Feng said faintly: “This is the God Eradicating Elixir. I will be assured that you won’t betray me once I inject you with it. Like this, I won’t be forced to resort to murder to silence you.”
Joana’s eyes were as sharp as blades, and she said chilly: “And if I refuse?”
A touch of an ice-cold glint flashed past Yang Feng’s eyes: “Although it is regrettable, but I won’t have another choice but to kill everyone present, and then help Shayenna to ascend the throne. As the former dark elven Great Matriarch, it should be simple for her to gain control over the clan.”
Joana stayed silent for a moment, and then responded: “What are the aftereffects of this elixir? Does it affect the mind?”
Yang Feng said with a smile: “There are no aftereffects, and it doesn’t affect the mind. Besides, it comes with great benefits to the body – it can aid one in their practice of cultivation, and cleanse the impurities in one’s body.”
Apart from being used to control others, the Liquid-Metal Nano-Robot Elixir could also be used in the medical field and the cultivation field. Yang Feng had injected himself with the elixir. The large numbers of Liquid-Metal Nano-Robots merged with his body cleansed his body’s impurities, and over time upgraded his physical constitution.
Joana said lightly: “Alright, I agree!”
The robot came before Joana and injected her with the Liquid-Metal Nano-Robot Elixir.
Joana was a Greatest Warlock rank expert and her physical constitution was extremely formidable. One third of the Liquid-Metal Nano-Robots were immediately eliminated by her immune system after entering her body, while the remaining two third of the Liquid-Metal Nano-Robots fused with her body.
After seeing Joana being injected by the Liquid-Metal Nano-Robot Elixir without resisting, the upper class dark elves realized that resistance was futile, and obediently let themselves being injected as well.
Yang Feng felt the change in Joana’s body, and his eyes flashed with a touch of regret: “At present, the limit of the improved Liquid-Metal Nano-Robots lies in controlling Great Warlock rank experts; if it was a Starry Sky Warlock rank expert, then they would have to way to control the other party.”
