After I died, my personal maid rebelled.

Facing the sun that will never rise again, at the break of dawn, a massive army converged into a torrent of steel, launching the first expedition in human history to the Elven Kingdom.

The knight trampled the low bushes, causing the earth to tremble, and cleared a path leading straight down into the mountains.

Upon arrival at their destination, they quickly dismounted and, under the command of their temporary commander Paul, swiftly removed their tools from their horses. Then, they systematically coordinated their manpower and began constructing a military camp.

The dwarven argali cavalry that arrived with them demonstrated their expertise in mountain warfare. The argali rams climbed the mountain walls at a terrifying speed and soon penetrated deep into the mountains.

A few days later, the advance force of the Second Division, led by Kate, rested for only one night in the military camp before quickly setting off to begin operations.

Their mission was to establish command posts on the front lines and coordinate the operations of all parties.

Once the main force arrived, the knights immediately set off, heading straight for the valley region within the elven kingdom.

Several armies entered the Elf Kingdom, and Luna waited anxiously in the camp for several days before receiving the first intelligence from the Dwarven cavalry.

According to the dwarves, they have made contact with the scouts stationed there, and the undead army's advance is currently progressing at a relatively slow pace.

The Undead's actions mainly revolve around capturing female elves alive, and the Giant Insect Calamity appears frequently, but the Cursed Incarnation is nowhere to be seen.

The intelligence also indicated that the temporary force assembled by the elves had a decent fighting spirit, but their combat effectiveness was questionable. Their atomized society had long since rendered them incapable of teamwork, and compared to them, the undead appeared to be well-trained.

"That bug again."

Luna relayed the information: the defensive positions built by the elves were like a child's stone castle in front of the undead giant worm.

Or rather, they're easier to seduce than lolis.

"The enemy's core plan is still Thorne. Mr. Medivh made it very clear that Thorne's role is to extract power from living beings and then condense it into a certain metal."

Jenny frowned slightly and analyzed, "Weapons made of this metal have injured Paul, and... His Excellency the Duke. We cannot be swayed by the metal's effects. We must recognize that even someone as strong as Paul can be knocked unconscious by a single wound."

"No, this might be a different power system." Lisa bit her finger. "Life magic is still not separated from the magic system. The power of life lies in life itself. If we have to say that there is something independent of magic and nature, then it is only the emotions of living beings."

"Therefore, I believe that the additional condition on the metal was the key factor that led to Paul's 'fatal blow'."

Upon hearing this, Jenny fell into deep thought. She tried to deduce the power system called emotion, but discovered a problem that she could not avoid no matter what—why is it lust?

Among the many emotions of living beings, lust is indeed not to be ignored, but the most basic emotions, such as joy, anger, and sorrow, are the key elements that constitute the emotions of a living being.

Could it be because of the elves?

She told the two of them about her discovery, but Luna quickly dismissed it, saying, "The overseas elves don't exhibit this trait; I guess it's because of their longevity."

Can longevity be equated with sexual desire?

One question that even Jane herself dared not answer is whether living beings, due to their infinite lifespan, would become addicted to lust, which has become an unexplorable question.

Because among the four races, only elves are long-lived, and no other race can be compared with them in research.

Dragons, though perhaps long-lived, are magical creatures that can live for thousands of years without even needing to eat, making them incomparable to elves.

On the surface, Lisa's deduction was accurate: the lustful elf was extracted by Thorne and turned into the Sword of Lust, which easily inflicted wounds on the Duke and Paul.

The Duke was able to suppress the attack on his own, but the powerful Paul fell into a coma on the spot. If it weren't for Rhea's timely sacrifice, his life might have been in danger.

Imagine how terrifying the battlefield would be if the situation were even more dangerous, and the enemy could inflict knockout or corruption on friendly units at any time...

"Could the souls of the undead also be related to emotions?"

Luna noticed another of the goddess's plans: the modification of the undead. Although she couldn't understand the connection between the soul and emotions, she always felt that the two things were somehow inevitably linked together.

Thinking too much is pointless; one unverifiable question after another has already blocked their discussion.

Refocusing her efforts on military matters, Luna immediately ordered the 2nd and 3rd Regiments of the 3rd Division to proceed as planned. They would bypass the main battlefield and head directly along the valley into the beach area.

This battle presents a golden opportunity. Since the undead army has relentlessly pursued the mountain elves, and the mountain elves have chosen to use the narrow valleys to escape.

The Northern Army could have taken advantage of the Undead Legion's pursuit into the valley to launch a multi-pronged attack and wipe out the entire Undead Legion in one battle.

It's time to break this lackey born in the Southern Territory.

Within the Elf Kingdom, on the back of a low peak near a valley, a forward command post has been successfully established.

Thanks to the dwarves' activity, intelligence from all units was delivered to Kate on time. The fact that short-legged dwarves are better climbers than any other race sounds like a dark joke.

A foul stench wafted in the night air, and a staff officer quickly stepped forward to seal the tent flap to prevent the light inside from leaking out.

"The knights will enter the valley from the northwest in five days. Lord Paul suggests that perhaps a regiment of soldiers should be sent to support the elven defenses."

After listening to the staff officer's report, Kate nodded in a deep voice, "Having a regiment follow the elves is indeed beneficial to our strategic deployment."

"Tell Commander Paul that headquarters has approved his actions, but be careful of the enemy's undead giant worms."

"yes!"

At the same time, fierce fighting continued along the mountain ridge defense line, which was only seventy kilometers away from the forward command post.

Large-scale attacks by the undead often take place at night, with the darkness becoming the stage for the battle. Due to the existence of the calamity, the elven mages no longer dare to act rashly.

"To the west, there are rebels!"

A voice amplified by magic traveled in all directions, and in addition to the undead, the elven defenders, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, also caused considerable casualties to the elven garrison.

The beliefs of elves are chaotic. Humans, due to their short lifespans, tend to think about more practical issues, but elves, who are nearly immortal, often act rigidly and even fanatically when it comes to their beliefs.

The rebels, who claimed to be inspired by a goddess, fell into fanatical piety due to the undead army's leniency towards them. With the return of the princess, they found their own value even more.

"To be freed from sin, and to offer myself to the gods!"

The rebel leader, radiating a vibrant green light, charged rapidly up the mountain ridge defenses with her blessed power.

Arrows and rocks flew everywhere, but her constantly repairing body gave her boundless courage. With a wave of green light, several elven guards lost their hands and fell from the mountain in terror.
