Outrageous! Starting as the Elf King – Chapter 129

Chapter 129: The Four Major Forces of Skyhorse Lake! Arriving at the Unicorn Clan’s Island!

“What’s your name?”

Lin Yi asked with an indifferent expression.

The giant crocodile trembled all over and hurriedly said, “In reply to Your Excellency, my name is Galen.”

Galen??

The corner of Lin Yi’s mouth twitched, and then he said, “Have you always lived in this Skyhorse Lake?”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

The giant crocodile said, “I am a Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile of the Magical Beast Lineage. I have been in Skyhorse Lake since I was born. Like my family, I have never left Skyhorse Lake for even half a step.”

It did not dare to conceal anything about Lin Yi’s question.

Although it was a Magical Beast, it had lived for hundreds of years and naturally heard legends about the Sun Elves.

After all, this entire Forgotten Swamp was once the ruling territory of the Elf Empire.

And Skyhorse Lake was even more so the back garden of the Elf Empire.

Countless elves lived here back then.

If it weren’t for the fall of the Elf Empire and the Sun Elf King falling on the battlefield of the God War, their Demon Beast Race would not have had the opportunity to come to this Skyhorse Lake to reproduce.

Lin Yi asked, “Then do you know which island the Unicorn Clan lives on?”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile immediately said, “I know, of course, I know! Our Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile Clan has never had any friction with the Unicorn Clan, and we even have a good relationship.”

“If Your Excellency wants to go to the Unicorn Clan’s island, I can lead the way for Your Excellency!”

It acted very obediently.

For fear that Lin Yi would hit it with his staff again.

Its skull couldn’t withstand such repeated blows.

If Lin Yi had hit it any harder, its skull would have been shattered.

“Let’s go then!”

Lin Yi’s figure flickered and landed directly on the head of the Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile, Galen.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile did not dare to hesitate. It quickly swung its tail, paddled its limbs frantically underwater, and headed towards the Unicorn Island in its memory.

Along the way, the Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile, Galen, also told Lin Yi a lot of information about Skyhorse Lake.

There were a total of ninety-six islands in Skyhorse Lake.

Most of the islands were occupied by Magical Beasts and intelligent races.

Of course, some of them were the territories of their ‘Water Monsters’.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile Clan under its rule occupied a small island and often went to the island to bask in the sun.

There were many forces in Skyhorse Lake, and the four most powerful were:

Two on the islands and two in the ‘water’.

One of the two powerful forces on the islands was the Unicorn Clan, and the other was the Beast Race.

The two powerful forces in the water were their Water Monster Clan and the Sea Race.

The Sea Race was headed by Mermaids.

They had a large number of Fishmen and Water Magical Beasts under their command.

Lin Yi asked, “From your tone, it seems that the relationship between your Water Monster forces and the Sea Race is not very friendly?”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile said, “The Sea Race, headed by Mermaids, wants to occupy our territory all the time. Those Mermaids are the most evil, and they are always thinking about controlling us with their songs.”

“My father was controlled by them and became a slave of the Sea Race.”

“In order to protect my people, I took them to a place very far away from Mermaid Island. I usually don’t dare to show my face, and I mostly come out at night.”

After speaking, it sighed again, lamenting that it was really unlucky.

It didn’t come out early, it didn’t come out late, but it just happened to surface at this time. Not only was it knocked twice by this Sun Elf, but it was also caught and forced into labor.

It didn’t even know if it would survive this time and return to its people.

As for escaping or resisting.

It had not thought about it.

Because its strength was too far apart from Lin Yi’s.

It was only a Magical Beast that had just entered the Saint Rank, while Lin Yi was a powerful existence at the peak of the Saint Rank.

To kill it, maybe it only needed one more black stick.

Now, it could only pray that Lin Yi was a kind elf and would spare its life for the sake of its obedience.

Lin Yi asked, “Haven’t you ever thought about joining forces with the Mermaid Clan to fight?”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile said, “Of course, we have thought about it, and we have even fought several wars, but we have failed every time. Because every time, we were betrayed by some Water Monsters.”

“The Mermaid Clan somehow controlled them.”

“Until the war broke out, they suddenly backstabbed us.”

“After several wars, our strength has become weaker and weaker, while the power of the Mermaid Clan has become stronger and stronger. Perhaps in the near future, the entire water area of Skyhorse Lake will become the territory of Mermaids and the Sea Race.”

“By then~”

“My people and I are afraid that we can only move away from Skyhorse Lake and live in the swamp waters.”

“Don’t worry, that won’t happen.”

Lin Yi said comfortingly.

Hearing his words.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile, Galen, felt cold all over, and its scalp tingled.

This elf, wouldn’t he really kill it?

If it died, it would indeed have no chance to take its people to the swamp waters to live.

“Y-Your Excellency, I’ll listen to whatever you say, just please spare my life!”

“Just go on your way, don’t think too much.”

Lin Yi had no intention of killing this crocodile for the time being.

He wanted to take over Skyhorse Lake and suppress the Mermaid Clan, and he might have to use the power of these Water Monsters.

After all, his elves were almost all bad at water battles.

Fighting Mermaids and the Sea Race in the water would give them no geographical advantage.

But these Water Monsters were different.

If he could bring them under his command and join forces with the experts under his command to besiege Mermaid Island, he would definitely have the opportunity to capture Mermaid Island in one fell swoop.

Lin Yi asked again, “You just said that there is another Beast Race among the four major forces of Skyhorse Lake?”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile said, “Some of them are the descendants of the Orcs who survived that war, and some Orcs fled from the Beastman Great Plains later.”

“Now, the Orcs are very powerful.”

“Their base camp is the largest island in Skyhorse Lake, and in addition to that, they also occupy seven surrounding small islands.”

“They even established a Beastman Kingdom.”

“It is said that the population has reached more than three million.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but show a surprised expression.

He didn’t expect that there were so many Orcs in Skyhorse Lake.

More than three million!

This was not a small number.

At this time, the Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile continued, “Those Orcs have a very strong desire for aggression. They have been building warships equipped with Magic Energy Cannons over the years, attempting to occupy more islands.”

“The Unicorn Island that Your Excellency is going to is not very far from the territory of the Orc forces.”

“Less than 800 kilometers.”

“According to the development trend of those Beastmen, they may declare war on the Unicorn Clan in a few years.”

Lin Yi nodded slightly and said, “Islands are not like land. The geographical conditions and resources are limited. Under the circumstance of excessive population growth, it is understandable for those Orcs to expand outward.”

If it were him.

He would also have to expand fiercely.

It was already limited resources. If he didn’t hold it in his own hands and strengthen his own clan’s power, could he leave it empty or give it to other races?

Of course, understanding is understanding.

When the time comes, he would still have to fight.

He wanted to take over Skyhorse Lake, so naturally, he had to beat up all the races that refused to lower their heads.

Then, Lin Yi learned some more information about the Beast Race from the Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile, Galen.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile was also very well-behaved and answered everything he asked.

◈◈◈

When the time came to three or four o’clock in the morning.

The man and the crocodile finally arrived at their destination.

“Your Excellency, ahead is the water fortress built by the Unicorn Clan. Once we get close, the Unicorn Clan will immediately notice us.”

◈◈◈

Lin Yi looked up.

He saw wooden buildings dozens of meters high floating on the lake in the distance.

Each building radiated a magical glow.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile said, “The Unicorn Clan is a peace-loving race and never actively invades the surrounding islands. But in order to prevent foreign enemies from invading, they have also built a large number of such water fortresses, surrounding the entire Unicorn Island.”

“These fortresses not only have a warning function, but they can also release powerful attack magic.”

“How do you know this?”

Lin Yi asked casually as he looked at Unicorn Island in the distance.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile grinned and said proudly, “The eyes of our Water Monster forces are all over Skyhorse Lake. There is almost nothing we don’t know.”

Lin Yi glanced at it sideways, “Then how can you be suppressed so badly by the Mermaid Clan?”

“…”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile was speechless.

Lin Yi ignored it again.

He tapped its head with the Sun Elf King’s Scepter in his hand.

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile screamed reflexively, “Your Excellency, spare me!”

Lin Yi said with dissatisfaction, “What are you yelling about? I’m not going to kill you, I’m just setting up a restriction in your soul. As long as you don’t leak my information, you’ll be fine.”

“T-Thank you, Your Excellency!”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile suddenly felt like it had narrowly escaped death.

But soon, it wanted to cry again.

A restriction was placed in its soul, wasn’t that equivalent to its life and death being in Lin Yi’s hands? If Lin Yi wanted it to die at the third watch, it wouldn’t live to see the fifth.

“Cheer up.”

“At least you’re still alive now.”

Lin Yi flew away from the Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile’s head and said, “You can go, but don’t leave Skyhorse Lake. Maybe I’ll come to you again in a while.”

“Yes, Your Excellency, I’ll be waiting for your arrival at any time!”

The Silver-Striped Bay Crocodile didn’t delay, it turned its head and swam away, flicking its tail.

And in a short while, it sank into the bottomless lake water.

This was really running faster than a rabbit.

◈◈◈

Lin Yi flew towards the water fortress in the distance.

When he was about ten miles away, the water fortress suddenly emitted extremely powerful magic fluctuations.

However, this magic power was gathered but not released, as if it was warning him.

If he dared to get closer, he would be attacked in the next moment.

“This thing is not bad.”

“It can be used to be installed on the outer city wall of the ruins.”

“I just don’t know if it can actively identify targets.”

“If it also attacks when low-level monsters approach, it will consume too much energy.”

Lin Yi didn’t continue forward.

Instead, he waved the Sun Elf King’s Scepter in his hand.

Immediately, a huge fireball appeared out of thin air and smashed towards the water fortress in the distance.

The fireball exploded halfway through its flight.

It was blocked by a translucent energy shield.

“As expected, there is such a thing as a magic defense shield!”

Lin Yi muttered.

Then he stood quietly in mid-air and waited.

He believed that the Unicorn Clan inside would definitely notice his actions, he just had to wait patiently.

In fact, he could directly teleport in.

This level of magic defense shield couldn’t stop his spatial traversal.

But he still had to be polite.

Especially since he now had the identity of the Sun Elf King.

Sneaking into the territory of the affiliated intelligent races would not sound good if it got out.

It didn’t take long for Lin Yi to wait…

After only a minute or two, a group of figures flew over.

These figures were all Unicorns with snow-white fur and silver scales on their backs. Each Unicorn had a long, sharp horn wrapped in purple lightning on its head.

These Unicorns were all quite strong.

There were seven of them in total, and the lowest was at the Transcendent level.

The leader even reached the Saint Rank.

In a short while, they crossed the water fortress and came near the magic defense shield.

At the same time.

They also saw Lin Yi standing in mid-air.

At that moment, all seven snow-white Unicorns froze.

Their blue eyes widened.

Their faces showed a very humanized look of shock, as if they had seen a ghost.

“Sun Elf?”

“How is this possible?!”

“I’ve only seen a Nature Elf once, let alone a legendary Sun Elf!”

“Wait!”

“That scepter in his hand… I seem to have seen it in the clan’s ancient books.”

“That’s the artifact, the Sun Elf King’s Scepter!”

“It represents the highest authority of the Elf Faction…”

All the Unicorns were in a state of disbelief.

The Saint Rank Unicorn at the head reacted quickly. It instantly transformed into a beautiful woman in a silver dress and then flew directly out of the magic defense shield.

The remaining Unicorns also came back to their senses and excitedly followed.

Soon, they came to Lin Yi.

Without saying a word, they bent their front legs and lowered their heads towards Lin Yi.

The beautiful woman also knelt down and saluted Lin Yi excitedly, “Respected Elf King, Your Majesty, I am Samantha, the Third Elder of the Unicorn Clan. Greetings to you!”

It didn’t matter whether Lin Yi ascended the throne or not.

The identity of a Sun Elf, plus the Sun Elf King’s Scepter.

That was enough!

Even the Elf Queen of the Chaotic Plains would have to respectfully address him as Elf King, Your Majesty.

Lin Yi smiled and said, “Elder Samantha, please rise! I heard that your Unicorn Clan lives in this Skyhorse Lake when I was in the Imperial Capital Ruins, so I came to visit you.”

“Praise Elf King, Your Majesty!”

Elder Samantha said excitedly.

Then she hurriedly sent someone to send the news back to the island and directly opened the magic defense shield, saying, “I will lead the way for Your Majesty. It is an honor for all of us Unicorns that Your Majesty can come to our clan!”

She was really too excited.

Her plump body couldn’t stop trembling.

After all, this was the legendary Sun Elf, and he had also inherited the supreme artifact of the Elf Faction, 【the Sun Elf King’s Scepter】. It could be said that this was the most exciting thing that had happened to their Unicorn Clan in thousands of years.

“Let’s go then.”

Lin Yi was not polite and flew straight ahead.

Elder Samantha and the few Transcendent Unicorns who were still unable to transform excitedly followed behind.

Looking at Lin Yi’s straight and handsome figure, as well as the fiery power he released all the time, they even felt like they were paying homage to a god.
