Chapter 182.2: Moonlight Queen, Don't Just Eat Cream, Time To Get Serious (2)

He wanted to use the power of the Nether Realm to corrupt the High Elves.

That was a plan that Rayne had been thinking about for a long time. The origin of the plan was Rayne's reflection on his proposition of unifying the mortal world.

As a human, it was acceptable for Rayne to annex a human country.

However, if he used iron-blooded methods to invade and rule the foreign races, he would definitely be unpopular and the effect would be undesirable.

As for the elves…

This was the race with the greatest martial strength in the mortal world, be it Leta's Great Teacher, Moonlight Queen and God Regulating Mechanism or the Heavenly Kingdoms' Starburst weapon and Star God Remnant Radiance.

All of them were the top war units in the mortal civilization.Google seaʀᴄh NovelEnglish.net

Therefore, the elves were a faction that Rayne needed to conquer the most.

Right now, the elves of the Heavenly Kingdom were in constant internal strife and the vassals were divided. Furthermore, the corruption from the cosmos was distorting and eroding the will of the elves.

Rayne now had the simplest and crudest method to conquer the Heavenly Kingdoms.

That was to use the power of the evil gods to corrupt all the Heavenly Kingdoms.

Using the corruption of the Nether Realm to assimilate the entire civilization of the Heavenly Kingdoms could also resist the corruption of Far Silence.

This tactic of fighting fire with fire might even produce miraculous effects.

However…

Rayne had to be careful.

There was one thing he knew very well.

For many things, he was confident of victory before he took action.

However, he did not have much confidence in using the faith of the evil gods to rule the mortal world.

Therefore, he definitely had to delineate an area first and use it as his experimental field to attempt it first. He had to record the results carefully and carry out the experiment cautiously.

Furthermore, he had to be prepared for failure.

Rayne was originally prepared to ruin Dawn. However, it seemed that there was clearly a suitable target in front of him.

Caldera.

Caldera was the only country in all the Heavenly Kingdoms that had completely fallen due to the invasion of the Nether Realm.

No, that place was no longer a country.

The invasion of the Nether Realm, bombardment by an Imperial Guard and the current chaos caused by the Nether Realm armies... All of this had long destroyed Caldera beyond recognition and caused the living beings to be plunged into misery and suffering.

The negligence of the ruler caused this country to suffer a calamity.

Right now, there were only less than 10% of the total population left in Caldera's territory; these were the Fallens. After assimilating with the high-purity Nether Realm corruption, they were having their final revelry in the land that was burned by the flames of war according to their respective fallen beliefs.

This sealed space and the ready pool of followers made Caldera the perfect place for Rayne to conduct his social experiment.

However… before carrying out his plan, he had to get rid of the interference of the other evil gods of the Nether Realm first.

In Rayne's plan, he only approved of using the power of the evil dragon and Harmony to corrupt and control the mortal world.

Apart from those two existences, the essence of the other evil gods was too chaotic and crazy. If their faith was introduced to the mortal world, it would only create a hell on earth.

However, the current Caldera had already become a battlefield for many overlords of the Nether Realm to fight for supremacy.

The gods of the Nether Realm had long coveted the pure land of the High Elves that was far away from the mortal world. Now that Olivia had initiated the assault, the evil gods of the Nether Realm followed suit and sent their apostles and chosens to join the war to fight for control of Caldera.

This was not good.

Rayne did not need other evil gods to get involved in Caldera's situation.

What he needed was to turn Caldera into Olivia's home ground as soon as possible so that the local people would convert to the evil dragon. That way, he could begin testing the society of the Fallen that he had imagined.

No matter the outcome of the test, Caldera, a country that had long been sacrificed to the evil gods by a mediocre master, was already rotten to the core. The people who were unfortunate enough to stay in that hell were already walking corpses.

Rayne did not mind offending a group of dead people.

However, the problem was…

The current situation was extremely disadvantageous for Olivia. Rayne's sister, Edaline, bombarded Olivia with a round of crystal spears and destroyed her dominance here, allowing the other evil god overlords to take advantage of the situation.

Right now, in this land where the power distribution was as chaotic as the glass of a church…

It was difficult for Olivia to achieve victory against the various factions with the help of her useless succubi.

In fact, there was a high chance that they would suffer a crushing defeat.

That was because according to Edaline's report—the Blood Fiend Army of the Blood Empress, the strongest evil god of the Nether Realm, had already arrived at the battlefield.

Of course.

Actually, that was not a big problem.

Rayne had a way to help Olivia turn the tables.

He lowered his head and looked at the Moonlight Queen who was under the desk.

"Alice."

Alice laid her head on Rayne's thigh obediently, as docile and cute as a female cat. "Yes, Your Highness? "

"You're Olivia's chosen…"

Rayne smiled and rubbed Alice's head. "How about settling some proper business?"

Alice nodded gently. "Yes, I'll listen to you, Your Highness."

Rayne was left sitting alone at the desk.

At this moment, he looked out of the window with a strange expression.

In the garden outside the study, all sorts of special flowers meticulously nurtured by the High Elves swayed with the wind, creating colorful ripples.

Speaking of which…

Ever since Rayne was in Leta, he had always felt that someone had been peeping at him secretly.

It was a strange feeling. However, what was even more strange was that both Edaline and Alice expressed that there was nothing unusual around Rayne's house and that there were no peepers.

Rayne looked at the scenery outside the window… Everything was normal.

Was it just his imagination?
