Just being a dark elf in Warhammer

Although in Darkus' perception, the concept of legend is very broad and there is no so-called standard, there is no doubt that Jon Skylan is a legend.

Skylan, who became a vampire, fought throughout the First Vampire War. After William III and Vlad died together in the Battle of Altdorf, the fate of the world between him and Darkus can only be said to be completely different. Yes, he was also captured, but the difference is that he seemed to have been rescued during his fifth year in the Sigma Cathedral cell.

The person who rescued Skaven was Manfred. During the rescue process, they massacred the Sigma priests in the Sigma Cathedral and then escaped from Altdorf. After escaping, the two of them embarked on a wonderful two-person trip within the empire. In the process, Manfred gradually got to know Skelvin and realized that Skelvin was extraordinary. There was something very unusual about Skelvin. Skaven can make himself indispensable and get those around him to do what Skaven wants him to do.

In the winter of 2010 in the Imperial Calendar, in Essen of Sylvania, after the vampires won a victory over Otilia's army, Vlad was careless and was killed by the captured general who pulled out the blood-drinking sword from his waist. , Hermann takes his place and forcibly takes Isabella as his own.

In fact, from a certain perspective, strictly speaking, the second generation head of the von Carstein family was not Conrad, but Hermann, but Hermann's rule as the new earl only lasted a few days.

Later, due to the existence of the resurrection ring, Vlad returned like lightning and killed Herman. However, as a member of the Herman family, Skeven escaped the purge. With the death of Herman, a The channel connecting Skaven and Vlad was opened, and since then Skaven has jumped from the bottom to the top of the Von Carstein family.

And Manfred discovered Skelvin's potential and talent. When they finally parted, with his soft words and earnest guidance, Skelvin accepted his invitation, and Skelvin promised that he would come to the new Earl. , to be one of them, to feed the new Earl's uncertainty and feed the new Earl's ego.

To put it bluntly, Skeven became Manfred's spy in the von Carstein family and interfered with Conrad's rule. Manfred, on the other hand, headed south, to Nehekhara.

Conrad invited the vampires who escaped from Altdorf and were active throughout the empire to Duncanhof Castle. At the same time, he invited a human wizard to help predict the von Carstein family.

"Betrayal lurks around every corner. Betrayal will destroy you. Friends cannot be trusted."

The wizard immediately made a ruthless move. His words were like a prologue, starting the internal strife in the Von Carstein family. At Fritz's instigation, Conrad and Hans started a duel, and Hans died under Conrad's sword.

After that, Conrad did something else. Since he inherited Vlad's mess, he could only think of some ways to expand the number of vampires, and asked Peter to attack Nunn and Fritz to attack Middenheim. . He had no confidence in capturing these important human towns, just to distract Peter and Fritz so that the two would not unite against him. At this time, Skelvin also returned to Sylvania, and he accepted Skelvin's return.

Vampires are not stupid. Fritz knew Conrad's plan and found an opportunity to assassinate Conrad. But Conrad ducked, and when Conrad found him for a fight, he ran away.

Skeven also received his first mission. During Fritz's attack on Middenheim, he found an opportunity with Fritz, who died in Middenheim. From then on, he became Vlad's confidant as Manfred's spy and mole.

In a way, Skaven's presence made the Second Vampire War very special... and his presence exacerbated Conrad's madness. After Conrad's death, his story continued. During the Third Vampire War, he was still active. He was a veteran of three dynasties, playing all the games, and many important things were under his influence and intervention. happened next.

Finally, in the underground of Nuln, Skaven was killed by Jerrick, and a generation of legendary vampires fell.

The Battle of Altdorf ended with the death of William III and Vlad, but half of the vampires of the von Carstein family escaped. The human defenders at that time suffered heavy losses and were too exhausted to pursue. They could only stay on the city wall, laughing at the enemy and fleeing the light.

But things have changed. Due to the existence of Drusala like a gatekeeper BOSS and the final tactical nuclear bomb, the vampires who followed Vlad to participate in the Battle of Altdorf can only face four situations. The first is on the city wall. He was killed by Drusala, the second was blown to pieces by a tactical nuclear bomb, the third was lying under the blind corner of the city wall like Skeven, and was finally captured by the humans cleaning the battlefield, the fourth was that he escaped, but this The probability is very low, very pitifully low.

In the past three days, Darkus learned about what happened. The vampires of the Von Carstein family were divided into two waves. One wave was the Knights Templar of Duncanhoff and the Knights of the Blood Dragon launched an attack on the Cold Lizard War Group. There was an impact, and the result...the other wave followed Vlad and launched a charge, and the result...

Darkus felt that he had done a big job. He not only killed Vlad, but also killed the vampires who shined in the Second Vampire War. Maybe... Conrad, who knows the news about the Battle of Altdorf, will Facing an even bigger mess.

At the same time, Darkus felt quite amused. In this battle, he only killed Skevin, and in this way. Strictly speaking, Manfred who was killed by him also died in this battle. Two vampires who were not supposed to die in the first vampire war died, which may indirectly lead to some changes in the second vampire war. As for the third war led by Manfred...

In Darkus' view, in this situation where history has been changed by him, Skaven has no value in living, and Manfred will not appear and rescue Skaven. After all, Manfred was one step ahead of Skelvin. Manfred was already dead, who else would come to save Skelvin. Jerick? Due to Vlad's adjustment of strategic direction, the grand leader of the White Wolf Knights, Jerick Kruger, was still alive and well, and did not become Jerick von Carstein.

Darkus also had no reason or obligation to let Skelvin go and let Ren and Genevieve rob the camp? Persuade William III to let Skelvin go? Just like... when the Slann Demon Priest captured Chuanquero? The Slan Demon Priest saw Chuan Kuiluo's fate and thought that instead of killing him right away, it would be better to let him go. The benefits would be greater than killing him. The results proved that the Slan Demon Priest's judgment was correct, Mr. Chuan. From a certain perspective, Skevin's position in the von Carstein family seems to be no different from that of Chuanquillo?

However, in Darkus' view, all the vampires who shined in the Second Vampire War are dead, and it seems useless to let Skevin go. It is better for him to pick up the head and wait and see what happens, and give Walter's hammer Add some performance. In his opinion, Walter's Druchi-style leaf hammer is already a truly legendary weapon. In addition to half of the Thorn family and the smashed Mangil, there are also veterans from the Aenarion era. Now Added Manfred and Jon Skyland.

"What should I name? Oathbreaker? No, there is no oath? Evil Slayer? What a stupid name... Terminator? Forget it..." Darkus, who was leaning against the wall and thinking, exhaled a puff of smoke. Whispering, he thought that except for Prince Nagaris, the other souls who died under the hammer had something in common. But he couldn't think of what they had in common for a while, and he discovered that he really didn't have the talent for naming, and each name he chose was dumber than the last.

Although he hasn't thought of a name for the time being, it doesn't stop Darkus from taking this mediocre leaf hammer to Athel Loren, as he had thought before, and asking Lord Dais to help him give it magical powers. The power of Walter makes it an heirloom of the Thorn family.

It just lacks some fun. After all, for Drucci, the names of the two vampires, Manfred and Jon Skyland, are too unfamiliar and lack some kind of plot. He couldn't tell Walt the story of Manfred and Jon Skyland with enthusiasm when handing the hammer to Walt. He could still think of Walt's blank and stunned eyes. , that’s really awesome.

The Vampire War has been changed beyond all recognition by Darkus's three-step, five-for-two operation. He is now very much looking forward to what Conrad will do without those brothers and Skevin in the future. Will he be as completely crazy as before? What a big deal, let’s see what William III, who is still alive and has gained great popularity, will do, another direction of history! Variety!

Similarly, the deeds of Jon Skylan gave Darkus some inspiration. His self-proclaimed personality is benevolent and generous. There is a reason for him to do so. Naggaroth already has Malekith. He didn't have to be like Malekith, he had to find another way. The reason why she is willing to pardon the defeated soldiers of the Nagor, the reason why she is willing to re-activate Asperen's Baklon and Attorak strongholds, and the reason why she is willing to re-instate the disabled in various cities. The reason why he came out was because he was short of people. Nagaros was short of people. The fewer people there were, the fewer corresponding talents there were.

In addition to coming to Krakaronde for maintenance, the Nagol also stayed in the Cold Sea all year round to capture the Yankees in the Chaos Wasteland, and sold it to Carl Caronde. The soldiers were all battle-hardened, so it would be a pity to sacrifice it to Kane. . Not to mention Baclon and Vienna, in the eyes of Darkus, these are veteran commanders, experienced officers, and the same is true for disabled veterans.

Darkus couldn't say: If you don't do it, there are people who will do it. There is really no one in the bitter cold land of Nagaroth. He realized something from the Druchi who came into contact with him. Every time Everyone has a shining point. Everyone may have a talent and potential, but due to various reasons, including funds, family, environment, society, etc., these talents and potential cannot be discovered and can only be lost among everyone. If you are lucky, or have the financial and family support, you can continue to try and make mistakes and eventually find your own path.

Isn't Jon Skyland a typical example of this? If the bandits hadn't suddenly appeared, and if his wife hadn't died, he would have been an imperial farmer living in the fields all his life, until he died of old age, or Died during a Beastmen invasion.

Those potentials were possessed by Jon Skyland himself. They were possessed when he was a farmer, and they did not appear after he became a vampire. He showed those qualities after becoming a vampire because, after becoming a vampire, he Give him a stage where he can fulfill his potential. If he has always been a farmer, who will he play to? How about playing the piano to the cows... or with the farmers in the village?

Now, what Darkus lacks the most is talents. The reason why he is willing to win over Tolandir is because there are few bards in Nagaros except Grond's Morathi system, because Druch is not interested. He believed that bards must have that set, but he didn't want to pull some bards from Morathi, he would rather start a new one.

The minstrel is not a minstrel, but a symbol and symbol, which represents music, song and dance, public opinion and propaganda.

Music, song and dance are the carriers of public opinion and propaganda, ranging from so-called elegant musicals suitable for the powerful to performances suitable for the soldier class. This is very important for subsequent changes in public opinion and trends. Darkus wants Druchi to know the deeds of his ancestors. In his opinion, Druchi should not be like this. After all, Druchi's ancestors followed Ai Naryon saved the world, it shouldn't be like this.

Darkos wants to turn the public opinion and trend around, and let the Druchi know what they are doing, what they are doing, why they are fighting, and the importance of ruling Ulthuan. This is very important to him. Very important. He didn't want Druch to kill after landing in Ulthuan. If that was the case, why didn't he just believe in Kane, or just pull out the sword of Kane and let the world bleed into a river.

In Darkus' view, the so-called talents do not need to have much ability, as long as they have a certain skill. Just like the businessman who travels between Krakarond and Grond, he can grow his own vegetables in Nagarond. An old farmer, he needs these talents. He needs unique talents in various industries.

Maybe... Darkus suddenly thought about something. Corporations, roads, etc. are not suitable for development now. The policies of each period and each node are different. They must be adjusted or reversed according to the situation. Law Regiments and paths should be launched after King of Ulthuan and after Ulthuan is stabilized. Now... maybe he should live the whole thing?

The big stage of Nagaroth, if you have the talent, just come, just like a recruitment order. But unlike the Recruitment Order, Darkos needs various classes and groups, and needs to have skills and unique skills that can be used. Maybe... after he returns to Nagaroth, he should launch an activity, a period of For a five-year event, either the period should be extended to be longer to facilitate the group of Druchi wandering in the Black Ark, or a separate deadline should be set for these Druchi.

It's a big stage. If you think you have some skills, you can come to Nagarond for an interview. Darkus thinks this is very feasible, and he is even willing to bear the round trip expenses. After all, Druchi is strong and eager to change. When the time comes, let's dream up a dream or draw a cake... Maybe it won't be necessary at all. He thinks that those who dare to go to Naggarond for an interview must have two brushes. You must know that they are facing the hands of the Witch King and the Witch King, and there is no way to survive. Aren't you afraid of killing yourself by then? I think it’s too long to live, so I’m tired of living, right?

As long as there are one or two precedents, let Aijerese send people to the corresponding cities to spread the explosive news that someone has been reused by the Witch King...

"How do you feel? My friend?" Darkus exhaled a cloud of smoke again and looked at William III who came out of the room with concerned eyes. He had been waiting just now. He had previously promised William III to help with treatment after the Battle of Altdorf.

"Good, good, I can feel my lungs regaining their vitality, and I can also feel that I am full of energy now, like...I am young again." William III's voice Full of joy and excitement, his excited hands had nowhere to rest and kept waving.

Darkus smiled and nodded with satisfaction. He could clearly notice that after being treated by magic, the wrinkles on William III's face were reduced. He directly reversed the car, moving from middle age to old age, to middle age. Xiang Young, I'm afraid that the days ahead for those Sigma priests who want to be in power may be... somewhat painful.

"That's good, my friend. Next, you have to adapt to this new situation." After finishing speaking, Darkus put out the pipe, knocked the pipe along the wall, and put it in his arms. Then he continued, "I would like to introduce it to you solemnly."

"The person standing on your left is a high-level spellcaster, Aenir Asanok Wenior from Lauren Loren in the north of the empire. He has been on the land beneath your feet before. At that time, here Not Altdorf, but Cole Varnas."

"Wait..." After hearing Darkus' introduction, William III saluted Asanok in a friendly manner on his left, but as soon as he lowered his head, he froze. As the high priest of Sigmar, he knew some things that the people of Altdorf did not know, including the history of Altdorf and the elven ruins. When he thought of this, he suddenly realized something. He raised his head and looked at Asanok in surprise. He said in a surprised tone.

"Yes, just as you thought, my friend." (End of Chapter)
