Chapter 106 Follow the trend
It must be said that win-win is the realm that businessmen pursued by Ajin. Perhaps for Ajin, it is enough to achieve "win-win". But for the believers of the Lord of Deceit, "win-win-win" is far from the result. This is also the essential difference between Tsengqi believers and merchants: merchants hope to tie together multiple aspects with interests, because this is the best way to maintain long-term interests. However, believers of the Lord of Deceit pursue the greatest benefits of individuals in the short term - usually by harming others and self-interest.
The benefits obtained under the so-called "win-win" conditions... are mostly long-term rather than short-term.
Ashu Rufat considered what he should do. The easiest way was to kill all the people gathered here - but this did not conform to Tsengchi's principle. This might solve the problem, but in fact the benefits were not great. Although these people were secretly united to fight against him, they themselves were an indispensable part of the military's combat power. If they were all dead, it would mean that the combat power of the entire army would be greatly reduced.
In that case, he had to change his approach.
Ashurufat circled around and came to the position directly opposite the curtain door of the tent. There were several soldiers on duty around the tent, so he could not get close. However, after spending a little time, he still found a suitable observation position.
He waited patiently, and after a while, the discussion finally ended. The person who led the way out looked so familiar that it surprised Ash Rufate.
"Astiana..." Ashu Rufat murmured to himself as he stared at the man who walked out.
The man had a very similar face to the Chaos Lord Astiana - although Astiana did not meet many times, he was sure that he had not admitted his mistake - but he was of different ages.
Astiana is rejuvenated? Although Astiana already knows that the evil god of Chaos has unimaginable power, it is not surprising that he really wants to rejuvenate someone. However, Astiana does not think that Astiana can receive such a generous reward. Tsengchi will never give Astiana such great benefits without reason.
He looked carefully and found that the man was a little different from Astiana - his shoulders were slightly wider than Astiana and his height was slightly shorter than Astiana. In addition, there was a striking scar on the man's cheek, which was particularly obvious when he looked at it from the side.
Speaking of which, at the beginning, Astianna mentioned that he wanted his son to inherit his position. Although he didn't know how many sons he had (Ash Rufate didn't care about this before, so he knew nothing), since Astianna hoped that his son could inherit him, at least it meant that his son had this potential. As mentioned earlier, Chaos focused on strength, not background and blood. From Astianna, he wanted his son to inherit, but was not sure that his son would definitely inherit. One of his sons should have the identity of Chaos champion.
Then, this should be it.
Astranfate hides in a far dark place - the two sides are too far away, so Astranfate can observe the other party without any chance of being discovered. Astranfate's son is really bold - because he is not one of the subordinates transferred by Astranfate to Astranfate. He actually sneaks into Astranfate's military camp. Although Astranfate and Astranfate are allies, if he is discovered here, this covenant may not necessarily save him. No, even further, this will lead to the breakdown of the covenant. In this world, there will be no ally that will allow you to send a spy to the camp to make trouble.
No, Astiana would not do this, the risk is too great unless the whole thing is a scam from beginning to end. But this should not be a scam, because if it is a scam, it would take decades to plan and design, and in addition, it would require many aspects of cooperation - including counting the Immortal Lord's defeats several times but still able to escape. The scam is too difficult. Although the Lord of Clever claims to be able to see the other side of time, this is just a "profession". If Tsengqi really could see through everything in the future, there would not be four evil gods that would be hostile to each other. The other three probably had been defeated by Tsengqi long ago.
Besides, if this is a scam, what does Tsengqi want to get from this scam? This is completely inconsistent with Tsengqi's style, with small benefits but high costs.
If it weren't Astiana, then... it was this guy who thought it himself? Interesting!
Ashurufate thought carefully, and with his dark vision, he saw Astiana's son walking towards the outside of the camp, moving further and further. He followed. The night was his home court, and there was no reason not to make full use of it.
The target did not walk out of the camp, but went to a tent on the edge of a camp. An ordinary small tent made of animal skin was no different from the ones used by ordinary Chaos Warriors. Ash Rufate originally thought that the other party wanted to meet someone else here, but the other party just got into the tent and started taking off his clothes and resting.
Ashu Rufate remembered the location of the tent and left. After a short while, he came to another exchange at the camp.
Speaking of which, Ashu Rufate spent some energy on the arrangement of the entire military camp. The layout was completely based on the military book, with an orderly structure, and could mobilize power at the fastest speed when encountering an attack. However, in this position of the military camp, the situation became completely different. Tents of all sizes were arranged at will, and even the orientation of the curtain doors of the tent seemed messy and had their own choices.
Ashu Rufate walked through the messy tent group and came to the edge of the largest tent.
"Sage." Ashurufate shouted into the door. A few minutes later, he saw Sag come out of the tent - naked, revealing her hairy breasts and strong muscles.
Yes, this is the camp of Sag - the Chaos Champion of the Terror. During the previous journey, Ashurufat handed over all the terror soldiers who voluntarily joined him to Commander Sag. Sag was an excellent Chaos Champion in terms of personal force, but his military ability was very average. It can even be said that if he hadn't taken the lead in charge, his military ability was infinitely close to zero. Not only him, most of the terror soldiers had this tendency. They were very interested in charge and could barely accept the whole team (after all, this would allow them to fight better), but they were not interested in logistics, camping, marching routes, etc. Sag even reached a certain level in this regard - just look at this camp, you can tell that Sag even could not even let his subordinates camp in an orderly manner.
"Sir?" Sag looked at the sky in confusion. It was midnight and the surroundings were pitch black. And the surroundings were very calm, and it didn't look like there was any emergency military operation at all.
Several Chaos Warriors came out of the tent, but when they saw the quiet surroundings, they recognized that it was Ashu Rufate who was calling there, and they immediately realized that this was not their affairs.
"Sag, I have something to do." Ashu Rufat said. He said the camp location he had remembered before. "There is a Chaos Champion there who pretended to be an ordinary soldier and kill him as fast as possible." He said.
"The Chaos Champion pretending to be an ordinary soldier? But if he is a fake, how can I be sure he is an ordinary soldier or a Chaos Champion?"
"That's okay." Ashu Rufate replied easily. "It doesn't matter if you kill it wrong. Of course, it's better if you're right. Bring that guy's head to me... Wait, you'd better keep your head for a while and wait for me to give me again. As for time... it may be inappropriate to do it at night, because it will give him a chance to escape. I suggest you take action tomorrow."
"What excuse should I do it?"
"Does the believers of Blood God need a reason to kill people? I don't think anyone will care about this." Ash Rufate said.
"Very happy." The terror believers are always very welcome to killing. Being able to fight a Chaos champion is something Sagge is undesirable.
When Ashu Rufate returned to his tent, he accidentally discovered that Tarik was waiting for him there.
During this period, in order to plan the sudden attack on the immortal master Jacks, Ashu Rufate got some additional reinforcements - not ordinary soldiers, but Chaos Wizard. He asked Tsengchi for help, so Tsengchi sent a group of regular Tsengchi wizards with magic plates to help. Therefore, as a wizard apprentice, Tarik's position in the army suddenly became a bit embarrassing, and even considered unnecessary.
Only Ashu Rufate himself knew very well that these wizards were not trustworthy, and they came because of Tsengchi's orders and would inevitably leave because of Tsengchi's orders. If one day he had to have a showdown with Tsengchi, then these wizards would become Tsengchi's cards.
But then again, if that happens, who can ensure the loyalty of others? After all, they are also believers of Tsengchi. Ashu Rufate can only think so, or hope so that if he can establish enough results, those people will spend more time thinking about it when Tsengchi makes choices with him.
So Tarik's position in the army has not changed. On the surface, he is still a close confidant of Ashu Rufate. Ashu Rufate handed over many military affairs to this wizard apprentice. Of course, it is only on the surface. Every believer of Tsengchi (especially high-level believers) has learned the fact that no one can believe it.
"Master Ashu Rufate..." Tarik's expression was very serious. Ashu Rufate made a gesture to signal the wizard to learn from the tent before talking. The guard station on duty outside the tent was a short distance from the entrance of the tent, so the people in the tent could speak without being heard - unless they shouted loudly.
"Sir, what you did is inappropriate." Tarek said as soon as he entered the tent.
"What's the matter? Does it mean that I killed Oba?"
"It's not a matter of killing him," Tarek replied. "But you chose an inappropriate time... Of course, it's OK if you do it thoroughly afterwards, but you just killed him without doing any other follow-up..."
"What follow-up do I need?" Ashu Rufat asked. "Didn't I ask you to hold a funeral for him that matches the Chaos Champion's identity? Do I have to preside over this funeral myself?"
"But you shouldn't do nothing but a funeral!" Tarek cried. "Oba is not only one person. He has a bunch of subordinates, many friends, and many people who have a good impression of him... Many of them are dissatisfied with your approach - that kind of public statement."
Ashu Rufat smiled mysteriously. "This is exactly what I want." He said.
"Sir, are you... not planning to launch a large-scale offensive in the near future?"
"No...not only in the near future, but also in the long term. In fact, I don't plan to launch any large-scale offensive." Ashrufate said.
