Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 865: Chapter 104: Chaos Crisis: Oliver’s Three Strategies (Parts 1–3)_2

"His battle style is extremely violent; in the wilderness, he wields a two-meter-long serrated double-edged axe called Skull Breaker. The axe handle is inlaid with Frost Wolf teeth, which can actively pierce blood vessels, plunging himself into a berserk state, leaving behind a blood-red afterimage as his attack trajectory, and the more severe the injury, the faster the attack speed."

"Then, in a heavily injured state during a match, his battle roar can shatter the eardrums of nearby spectators. Blood beads continuously drip from his helmet’s crevices. This is how he earned the title ’Blood Roar.’

"His previous matches were violent but never out of control. I think it’s likely because they switched to their own weapons and armor for the finals. To solve this problem, we can forcefully exchange their weapons. Then use Wocatric’s Scale to purify the corruption within, though it may not completely remove the Wind of Chaos within him, it can at least suppress it to some degree, preventing him from being corrupted and falling into the embrace of Khorne during the finals."

"Alright!" Su Li decisively agreed to this plan: "As long as he doesn’t transform into a champion blessed by Khorne in front of the crowd, then we would’ve overcome this crisis."

Whether or not he later becomes a Chaos Fang is entirely none of Su Li’s concern. Because too many famous figures in this world have ultimately fallen to become Chaos Followers, a large number of competent generals and Knights either succumbed to temptation or turned due to despair, becoming noteworthy champions of Evil Gods.

The more famous they are, the higher the probability of falling and being tempted.

No one can blame Su Li, guaranteeing the knights’ achievements will never lead to their fall in the future.

What’s more, Ganser likely had Khorne’s mark placed on him long ago. This person is too brutal, slaughtering a Norsca Tribe single-handedly, leaving no man, woman, or child alive.

To put it nicely, it’s called ’Peach Court Sweep,’ eradicating the roots. To put it harshly, it’s being bloodthirsty and brutally slaughterous.

As for the difference, it entirely depends on his state at the time. Was he calmly executing strategic tactics to fundamentally weaken the strategic threat of the Norsca people, or was his will shrouded by slaughter and blood, indulging in the pleasure of butchery?

Therefore, Su Li thinks there’s merit in the teachings of the Sun Goddess, at least it encourages followers to remain calm, able to avoid the Evil God’s temptation as much as possible.

Su Li calmly said: "Don’t leave any room for criticism. If we’re to change their weapons, then change all their weapons and armor. Justify it by saying that official knights cannot perfectly control their Power, and equip them with perfect-grade armor and weapons instead. I believe such an upgrade in Military Equipment will certainly delight them."

Su Li’s appreciation for the teachings of the Sun Goddess didn’t last long before Oliver broke it.

"Ganser’s opponent is a Corona Knight from our Territory’s Knight Order, the official knight Orlando Silver Eyes. This title isn’t because he has silver eyes, but because his eyes always emit a cold gleam, maintaining calmness and composure at all times."

"He carries a pocket watch modified by Alchemy, and it’s said he can meticulously calculate everything, even his own schedule and training, to an obsessive degree."

"He previously served as a border scouting Knight, during which there were clear reports that he discovered 27 fewer wild jujubes on a wild jujube tree, deducing the presence of a hidden Goblin Tribe nearby."

"In battle, he uses a thrusting sword blazing with blue flames to attack enemies. Such a lightweight weapon clearly requires meticulous design to cause effective damage. But he always manages to dazzle his opponents, leaving them baffled before successfully igniting the flames, causing near-lethal damage to enemies."

"Today’s final is a duel between him and Ganser. Many look forward to witnessing this scene, whether Yurik’s brutal rage is stronger or the Sun Goddess’s strategic wisdom can secure a tactical advantage."

"This is also why the Lion Ring specially canceled other matches to solemnly hold this final. The match receives tremendous attention, igniting spectators’ enthusiasm, with bets exceeding more than 10,000 Golden Crowns."

"If, as the Lord said, someone will be tempted by Treachery in today’s final, it’s almost certain to be Orlando."

Su Li, hearing this, couldn’t help but feel a headache, asking: "Why does it feel like Orlando’s problem is more serious than Ganser’s? At least for Ganser, by disarming him, there’s a great chance to prevent his fall and corruption. But Orlando’s issue can’t be resolved as he’s already influenced by Treachery."

At least for now, replacing his weapons doesn’t matter much, his style easily leads to extremism, making him susceptible to Treachery’s temptation.

Treachery’s spirit is not as well-known among the Mortal Empire’s people compared to Khorne and Sado, mainly because the Imperial People are too foolish, many can’t even reach Treachery’s level. Treachery also disdains to tempt such unbelievably foolish mortals.

But it’s said among the Four Chaotic Evil Gods, Treachery was the most powerful (once), also the oldest.

He is also known as the Great Rebel, the God of Ravens, Master of All Transformations, Deceitful Transformer, Fortune God, Great Conspirator, Master of Destiny, God of Bookworms, God of Black... and another 9,933 names!
