Chapter 445 Herman's Conspiracy, Alpha's Plan
Chapter 445 Herman's Conspiracy, Alpha's Plan
After six days of careful preparation, Alpha successfully gathered one hundred dark elf assassins, three hundred dwarf warriors, one hundred dwarf craftsmen, twenty goblins, and of course, the elves and boar riders brought by Alpha himself. At this moment, the imperial knights are preparing to embark on the journey on land.
In this operation, Alpha's biggest gain was the dwarves and goblins. They were born craftsmen, represented by the dwarf Gulus, who showed outstanding talent in manufacturing and would greatly promote Alpha's technological development.
As for the elves and dark elves, although they are not the key factor in the development of Alpha's power, their existence has its unique significance. Even if there is only one person, they are part of the alliance, which represents more than just an individual.
The night before departure, the monkey found Alpha.
"Lord Alpha, I have thought it through. I hope to stay and learn the power of shadow." The monkey's eyes were determined, and it was obvious that he had already made up his mind.
"Can't you learn with Mashu?" Alpha asked. Mashu was also in the operation to get to the ground and served as the leader. The monkey could learn from him.
"Lord Alpha, we are learning in different directions. Mashu studies the art of assassination, while I focus more on lurking and reconnaissance. The dark elves have their own unique secret techniques, which are exactly what I need." Monkey certainly knew that he could learn from Mashu, but he knew that what he would learn in this way would be limited.
"Moreover, my strength has fallen behind. I need to hone myself among the dark elves and must not become a burden to Lord Alpha." This is also one of the important reasons why Monkey chose to stay.
"However, Lord Alpha, please rest assured. I have passed on my skills to my disciple Gecko, and she can perfectly complete the task you assign." The monkey had already made arrangements and would not let Alpha get into trouble in employing people.
"Well, I'll give you a year. Come back no matter what." Alpha stared into the distance, his thoughts drifting back to the past. Monkey had been his loyal follower for many years, and now that he was about to leave, Alpha couldn't help but feel a little reluctant.
"Don't worry, Master Alpha, I will definitely fulfill my mission and return on time." The monkey's eyes were firm. He knew Alpha's expectations of him and what this year's separation meant. He would go all out and use time and effort to prove his worth.
Alpha nodded, his trust in the monkey was unreserved. He knew the monkey's determination and ability, and believed that he would be able to make great progress in this year.
"I will let Chief Herman arrange it. He will find the strongest teacher for you and give you the best training." Alpha already had a plan in his mind. He wanted to create the best learning environment for the monkey so that he could fully develop his potential.
The monkey looked at Alpha with gratitude, and he understood that this was Alpha's care and support for him. With such a backing, the monkey became more determined to break through himself and become a stronger being in this year.
As time went by, the monkey continued to surpass himself in training. His skills became more sophisticated and his strength increased. Each improvement brought him one step closer to his goal.
A year passed in a flash, and the monkey returned to Alpha with a lot of harvest. There was a light of confidence and growth in his eyes, which would surprise Alpha.
……
"Lord Alpha, the environment outside is full of dangers. Why should we leave here now?" Fanxing asked curiously.
You know, their current military strength includes one hundred dark elf assassins, three hundred dwarf warriors, plus the original knight elves, the total attack force is about three hundred and fifty people.
However, their defense force was relatively inadequate, with only 120 dwarves and goblins. More importantly, the situation outside was not safe either.
As for the enemy, the vampire leader Carlson, the werewolf leader and the human commander have not yet been captured, and there are at least three to five thousand enemies scattered in the underground space.
If these people were scattered, they might not pose much of a threat, but once they gathered together, they would undoubtedly become a powerful force that should not be underestimated.
"The dark elf leader Herman is using us as bait to attract the enemy's attention." Alpha had actually already seen through the opponent's conspiracy, which could even be said to be an open conspiracy.
"Ah, Lord Alpha, how could he do this? We are allies!" The elf Evelyn frowned and said in surprise.
"There are no eternal allies, only eternal interests. If I can't even get through this level, then his death on the battlefield can be considered a worthy death." Alpha analyzed calmly.
Alpha knows that in a brutal war, the relationship between allies will often change due to interests. Only with sufficient strength and wisdom can one survive in a complex situation.
Faced with Hermann's conspiracy, Alpha decided to rely on his own ability and courage to break through the difficulties. He believed that only through practical actions could he prove his value and strength.
In the deep night sky, the stars twinkled faintly. Alpha knew that the importance of this meeting was self-evident, so he immediately called together the leaders of all parties to hold the last crucial meeting mobilization.
Gecko, the leader of the secret guards who replaced the monkey, his figure was looming in the darkness, exuding a mysterious aura.
Mashu, as the representative of the dark elves, has a cold and sharp look in his eyes, and his strength is undoubtedly powerful.
Perov, the goblin chieftain's position makes him the leader of the goblin clan, and his wisdom and strategy will add a lot of strength to the meeting.
Baruch, he leads the dwarf warriors, who are known for their bravery and tenacity and are an indispensable fighting force for Alpha.
Grusdal, as an important figure in charge of the dwarves, is related to Bruce, which gives him special influence in the dwarf community.
Maven, the representative of the elves, brought a touch of elegance and agility to the meeting.
"Fanxing, ask Gekko, Mashu, Perov, Baruch, Grusdal, and Maven to come to the meeting. Ask Evelyn to come and record the files, and Melissa to join the guard team." Alpha specifically asked Evelyn to come and take charge of the records. He knew Evelyn's ability and his special relationship. At the same time, Melissa was assigned to the guard team. She had a heavy responsibility and needed to stay alert at all times.
Now that there are more and more ethnic groups under the leadership of Alpha, Alpha must arrange the various tasks with the ethnic groups reasonably to prevent unnecessary troubles and conflicts.
"Yes, Lord Alpha." Fanxing followed Alpha's orders without hesitation and immediately began to gather everyone.
In this tense moment, everyone is fully aware of their responsibilities and missions. They will gather together to discuss strategies and prepare for the upcoming challenges.
Alpha's decisions and leadership will determine their fate, and they will go all out and work hard for a common goal.
"This is the route map for this operation, you must keep it in mind. Gecko and Mashu need to deploy in advance and clear out the remaining enemies on this route. Once a large-scale enemy gathering is discovered, be sure to notify me immediately." Currently, there are only eight shadow knights left in Gecko's group, and it is almost impossible for them to undertake reconnaissance missions. They can only shoulder this responsibility together with Mashu.
"Lord Alpha, I..." Mashu seemed to have something to say.
Alpha seemed to understand his intention and interrupted him without hesitation. "Wait a minute, stay here. I have something to discuss with you."
"Lord Alpha, we have already planned the route. Won't this give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage?" The dwarf Guru Sdal frowned.
"That's right. Our mission this time is to alert the enemy and lure more enemies out of the underground space." Alpha simply stated the main purpose of this operation.
Alpha's explanation shocked everyone. After all, they originally thought that the operation should be kept as secret as possible. There was no reason to actively attract the enemy's attention.
"Lord Alpha, is this too dangerous? The enemy's remaining forces are so numerous that we may find it difficult to deal with them." The dwarf Brook, who was in charge of the main attack, began to worry.
"This is a decision I discussed with the dark elf leader Herman. If we are really in danger, they will support us." Alpha had no other choice except to give up everything and escape secretly, but he really couldn't bear to give up everything he had already obtained.
"Then there should be no problem. Lord Alpha's decision is fine." Everyone agreed.
"Okay, then everyone prepare the supplies tonight and we will set off tomorrow morning. Gecko and Mashu stay, and the others can go back first." Alpha frowned, not knowing how to start.
Alpha knew Mashu's character very well, and he knew that Mashu was not suitable to manage those elite dark elves. However, he found it difficult to say it, because they had not yet left the territory of the dark elves, and it seemed inappropriate to remove Mashu's leadership now.
"Mashu, did you have something to tell me just now?" Alpha finally decided to ask the other party.
"Lord Alpha, I don't think I'm suitable to be a leader. I can become the strongest assassin, but being a manager is really not suitable for me." Mashu spoke, and he actually took the initiative to decline this leadership position.
"Mashu, you have to think carefully. This is a huge power." Alpha was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Mashu's idea coincided with his own.
Finally, Alpha decided to let Gecko join the Dark Elf Clan and serve as vice-captain. Based on this, Alpha prepared to re-establish a special Shadow Knights. Mashu is still the captain, but in fact, Alpha basically let him go and let him be a hands-off boss.
"Lord Alpha, I want to be the strongest assassin." Mash understood that Alpha was very powerful. While following Alpha, he felt unprecedented peace of mind and care.
"Okay, there will be plenty of battles waiting for you in the future." Alpha knew very well that his journey was full of blood and killing.
"Gecko, you stay. Mashu, you go back and make preparations." Alpha made a decision and only left Gecko. The remaining people on the scene were the secretary Evelyn and Alpha's maid Fanxing. These people were people Alpha trusted, and Alpha didn't need to hide anything in front of them.
After everyone left, Alpha took out the five plans he had prepared long ago. He said seriously, "This is our action plan. There will be no secrets in this operation, and there will be no support, so we must make careful plans in advance."
Gecko frowned and asked in surprise, "Master Alpha, don't tell me that the dark elves don't care about us anymore?"
"We are just bait. It's true that we don't have any reinforcements." Alpha's eyes revealed a hint of disappointment. "I still say the same thing. If there are few enemies, destroy them. If there are many enemies, run away. If you encounter a large number of enemies, change the route immediately and don't stick to the original plan."
Alpha didn't have much trust in the dark elves, especially the sinister chief Hermann, who was full of bad intentions.
Evelyn asked worriedly, "Then can't we just leave quietly?"
"We are so many in number that it is impossible for us to leave silently. It would be better to act openly." Hermann probably considered this when he left so many people to Alpha.
"Besides, there are so many people around and the internal problems of the dark elves have not been resolved yet, so it is impossible to keep our departure secret." Alpha explained.
"Master Alpha, I understand." The gecko is also a smart man, otherwise he would not have been noticed by the monkey and accepted as a disciple.
"Well, go and hand over to Melissa later. You will serve as the adjutant of the Shadow Elves, and Melissa will be responsible for the safety of my guards." Alpha reminded again.
Everyone left the meeting room. In this quiet moment, Evelyn seized the opportunity when there was no one else around Alpha. She grabbed Alpha's arm tightly and pleaded in a tender voice: "Lord Alpha, please, let me switch with Melissa. I want to be your captain of the guard." Her eyes were full of desire and determination.
Alpha smiled and shook his head gently. He knew that Evelyn's abilities were far more than that. "Evelyn, your talents should not be limited to the position of captain of the guards. I have a more important task for you." His eyes revealed his trust and expectations for her.
Evelyn leaned on Alpha's shoulder in confusion and continued to ask coquettishly, "What is the mission, Lord Alpha?" She was unwilling to give up her goal easily.
Alpha had already made a plan. He decided to set up an advanced magic school to lay the foundation for cultivating excellent magicians. He explained seriously: "I am going to set up an advanced magic school, and I hope you can serve as a professor." He believed that Evelyn's wisdom and talent would be fully utilized in the field of education.
"Ah! This means I have to part with Lord Alpha, and I don't want to." There was a hint of disappointment and reluctance in Evelyn's voice. She snuggled in Alpha's arms, unwilling to leave his side.
Alpha understood her feelings, and he comforted her gently: "Evelyn, you have to know that my range of activities will be relatively stable in the later period, and I will not move around casually. In that way, we can always be together." He also hoped to spend more time with her.
Evelyn's mood gradually calmed down, but her worries about her brother Maven still lingered in her heart. Although the elf society was dominated by matriarchy and her relationship with Maven was not very close, Evelyn still hoped that her brother could have a good future.
Evelyn mustered up the courage to ask, "What about Maven? What arrangements do you have for him?"
Alpha seemed to have been prepared. He showed a confident smile and began to outline a beautiful blueprint: "I have two choices for Maven. One is to let him be a professor with you and focus on the theoretical research of elven magic; the other is to let him follow me on the battlefield and become a practical magician. You two brothers, one dedicated to theory and the other to practice, will surely make elven magic flourish."
Evelyn was attracted by the brilliant prospects described by Alpha, and her eyes were full of expectation. "Lord Alpha, is this really possible?" She couldn't help but look forward to the future.
Alpha noticed Evelyn's excitement and continued to add: "Of course, little girl. As long as you follow my advice, the future of elven magic will be bright." As he spoke, his hands unconsciously wandered over Evelyn's body.
However, just as Alpha was about to take further action, a voice interrupted his thoughts. "Lord Alpha, the matter has been dealt with, and you should rest." Hearing this, Alpha quickly removed his hands from Evelyn's body.
Evelyn took the opportunity to lower her head and hurriedly left the meeting room.
