Global Demon King: Starting as the Abyssal Dragon-Novel

"His Majesty has already set the plan in motion."

"We must execute it to the fullest!"

Gru asked, "Which target should we crush first?!"

The elves were not afraid.

Why would the orcs be?

The current status and position of the Berserk Beast City today was carved out by their own hands, through war and bloodshed!

If the Demon King had a need for warriors to charge into battles.

Then the orc warriors would be the instrument of his will without batting an eye.

Li Si opened a map and said, "Let this old one explain on behalf of His Majesty."

The map was plundered from the Bloody Fortress, and it depicted the terrain and cities of the Chaos Forest in detail.

It must have taken a lot of effort for the empire to map out the forest.

"These are our next targets."

"Thousand Fangs City, Magi Mojo City, and Silver Spring City."

"We chose these three forest cities as targets mainly because they all have extraordinary influence in their respective regions."

The city lord Gru nodded, "I know these three cities, their strength are not inferior to that of our Berserk Beast City and the Giantree City."

Li Si resumed his explanation, "Our lord now has the allegiance of two large forest cities. If we can take down three more, with five cities as the core, nearly one-third of the Chaos Forest will be enveloped by His Majesty's magnificence."

"And when that time comes."

"Within this area."

"We won't even need to mobilize troops. All medium and small-sized towns, as well as tribal villages, will all come under our lord's control at the sight of our power. Almost half of the forces in the Chaos Forest will immediately fall into our lord's hands!"

"His Majesty's unification of the Chaos Forest is just around the corner!"

"..."

There was an old saying.

The supreme art of war was to subdue the enemy without fighting.

The Demon King did not have the energy to conquer one tribe or city at a time, which would be highly inefficient.

Instead, he planned to attack the most powerful and influential forces in the area.

Then, use them as an example to make nearby forces surrender and submit.

However, these three cities were not easy to deal with.

Thousand Fangs City was an extremely unusual city dominated by ogres.

Most ogres had low intelligence and a ferocious temperament, and it was theoretically impossible for them to gather a population of over ten thousand and eventually form a forest city.

Thousand Fangs City was a rather peculiar one.

In addition to the nearly ten thousand ogres.

There was also a large population of gnomes.

Gnomes, like goblins, were small and physically weak. But, they had exceedingly bright minds and were inherently cunning and shrewd, making them natural merchants.

It was still unclear as to why so many gnomes could live together with so many ogres, and the gnomes might even have a more dominant position among them.

Another example was the Magi Mojo City.

This was a city of trolls.

Trolls were a common race in the forest.

Like orcs, they had green skins. Not only did the trolls possess strong physiques but also have a very high level of knowledge and mastery in alchemy.

Troll alchemists, troll witch doctors, and troll hunters were all signature units of the troll tribes, and they were all exceptionally formidable opponents.

And finally, the Silver Spring City.

This was an elven city.

Nancilia unhesitantly volunteered, "There's no need for the use of force to deal with the elves in Silver Spring City. I should be able to persuade them."

Zhang Nu nodded in approval, "If that's the case, it would be best. You can give it a try, and if you succeed, you will have done a great service."

"Leave it to me!"

The very reason for her confidence and assertiveness was solely due to her Elven King bloodline.

And her bloodline had already begun to awaken.

She was only one step away from becoming the Elven King.

The elves in Silver Spring City and the elves in Giantree City were different tribes of elves, but their race was the same, and they could not go against the will of the Elven King.

Li Si then spoke up, "What about Thousand Fangs City and Magi Mojo City...?"

Zhang Nu replied, "I'm going to personally pay a visit to Thousand Fangs City, so the rest of you can deal with Magi Mojo City."

"Understood!"

With the strategic plan set.

Everyone immediately went their separate ways.

Nancilia was undoubtedly the most proactive.

She did not want to see the elves of Silver Spring fighting against the Demon King. Putting aside the fact that she had already recognized the Demon King as the Lord of the Chaos Forest, even if she took a step back, the elves could not possibly be a match for the Demon King.

No, no!

This must be stopped!

Otherwise, the young city lord would be in a difficult situation!

Nancilia did not want to waste a single second. After returning to Giant Tree City, she immediately summoned the second and third elder to accompany her on a trip.

Once the two elven elders learned about the purpose of the city lord.

They readily agreed without a second thought.

To save time, the young city lord also made another trip to the Darkness Valley to seek aid from Li Si, the Sky Drake Archpriest.

Silver Spring City.

The journey to it was too long and arduous.

Since the archpriest of the Demon King was more proficient in spatial magic than her, he could use space teleportation to transport them there and save a lot of time.

With a flash of light.

Nancilia and the two elders completed the teleportation and found themselves in a tranquil forest.

The one-armed third elder was surprised, "Have we arrived already?"

Nancilia replied, "There is always a degree of error in long-distance space teleportation. The farther the distance, the greater the error. We should be near Silver Spring City."

After some reconnaissance.

It was as Nancilia said.

They confirmed that they were indeed close to Silver Spring City, in an area called the Silver Leaf Forest. Li Si's teleportation had an error of several tens of miles, which fortunately did not affect the three of them much.

The second elder of the Giantree remarked, "Since we're not far from our destination, let's move to the city before dark!"

Nancilia shook her head in disagreement, "No, if we make the visit directly, it may arouse suspicion and attract unwanted attraction. It will bring us a series of troubles."

The third elder lightly nodded, "The city lord is right. The Silver Spring City undoubtedly has forces of Heroes within. It's best to make low-key contact to avoid any disturbances."

Upon hearing the mention of the word "Hero".

The second elder revealed a serious expression.

The Giantree City had been nearly ruined by Heroes.

Even their chief elder died in their hands.

The elves of the Giantree City did not have a good impression of Heroes.

The second elder pondered for a moment and said, "I know one of the elders in the Silver Spring City. I can enter the city first and find the city lord through this elder, then arrange a secret meeting with her. That should solve the problem."

The third elder agreed, "Very well, let's do it your way!"

The young city lord also nodded, "Thank you for going through this trouble."

The second elder smiled, "For the sake of our city lord, His Majesty the Demon King, and our elven race, this little trouble is nothing. Please wait here for my good news."

After the second elder departed for the city.

Nancilia inquired the third elder about the information regarding Silver Spring City.

Although she already knew that there were some elven towns in the Chaos Forest, these elves did not have much interaction with each other, therefore she knew very little about Silver Spring City.

The third elder explained, "The elven tribe of Silver Spring City migrated to the Chaos Forest only about two hundred years ago, and the current chieftain's name is Marilyn."

Judging by the name, the chieftain was clearly a female.

The elven tribes were female-dominated.

Females generally had longer lifespans and stronger talents than males, so among the ten leaders of an elven tribe, usually eight were female. There was nothing surprising about this.

The young city lord asked, "Have you met with this chieftain Marilyn?"

The third elder shook his head and said, "No, this chieftain is also relatively young, and it is said that she is a very proud and capable person."

Two hours later after the second elder left.

Nancilia sensed a magical fluctuation.

Several figures teleported over using magic.

She turned to look at the arrivals, and there were only two of them.

One of whom was an attendant who dressed like an elven elder.

While the other was a young, yet maturely alluring, and elegant female elf with a tall and shapely figure,as well as a head of pale golden flowing locks. She was donned in an elven-style silver armor, carrying a green longbow on her back.

"Are you the chieftain Marilyn?"

Nancilia carefully examined the elven city lord before her.

Based on her attire and aura, she was likely a warrior specialized in martial arts, or maybe even an expert who mastered the arts of both magical and martial.

With her beautiful sapphire-like eyes, Marilyn was also sizing up the young city lord.

Despite not having a strong presence, and even appearing too approachable for a clan and city lord, Nancilia had a peculiar aura.

This particular aura.

It was capable of suppressing other elves.

It could evoke reverence from within their very souls.

Marilyn's eyes lit up with a glimmer of light, "The aura of the Elven King, what a powerful bloodline. You really are the inheritor of the Elven King!"

It seemed that her perception was quite acute.

Nancy cut to the chase, "I am here on behalf of the Demon King of the Darkness City to negotiate. We hope that the Silver Spring tribe can join our ranks and work together to establish order in the Chaos Forest!"

The elven city lord's face shifted into a stern expression.

"The elves of the Silver Spring tribe are willing to pledge allegiance to the Elven King!"

"But the Elven King represents the entire elven race, and it is too humiliating for us to serve under a Demon King. The Silver Spring tribe cannot accept this!"

The young city lord's face paled, "You cannot say that! You have not an inkling of the situation! Our Demon King was no ordinary Demon King!"

"Chieftain Marilyn!"

"Are you defying the will of the Elven King?"

The second and third elders were obviously not pleased with her statement.

The elven lady remained calm, "No, it is precisely because we are willing to pledge allegiance to the Elven King, hence we have an obligation to bring the Elven King back from her astrayed path."

As she spoke.

Marilyn stepped forth.

Her Qi was emanating from her body and flickering through the air.

The two elders of the Giantree City's faces changed drastically upon witnessing this.

They quickly shielded the young city lord behind them, "What are you trying to do?!"

"What am I trying to do? Since the Giantree tribe had failed in sheltering the Elven King, why don't you hand over the Elven King to Silver Spring City for protection?"

Marilyn bowed slightly, "Please stay in Silver Spring City from now on, Nancilia. Our tribe will recognize you as the new tribal chief and city lord, and we swear to defend the dignity of the elven race!"

The expressions of the two elders could not have been more ugly.

They had never seen such an unreasonable elf.

She wanted to take the young city lord away from them.

And crown her as their new city lord.

Nancilia never expected this to happen, even though she knew her elven king bloodline would be useful.

But she never anticipated the exchange to escalate like this.

However, Nancilia did not sense any malicious intention from Marilyn.

This elven chieftain was probably not an ambitious person who sought to hold the Elven King hostage.

She probably really believed that Nancilia had been deceived by the Demon King and had been led astray, so she planned to use force to set things right.
