Chapter 572: Fusion And Interrogation
At Watson's residence in the planetary fortress.
Watson was in his bedroom. He sat on a bench and stared at the people in front of him. King Landhar III knelt on one knee respectfully without raising his head. Beside him, Delta and the others were tied up and gagged. Not only were they unable to move or speak, but they were also glaring at Watson fiercely.
Nia stood beside Watson, her hands placed on her lower abdomen, appearing very obedient.
"Nia, untie those elven assassins."
Watson waved his hand, and Nia immediately went forward to pull out the strips of cloth from Delta and the other elves' mouths. Just as she pulled them out, Delta opened her mouth and shouted, "Watson, it was our error that you were able to capture us. However, we are professionally trained assassins. Don't think that we will yield to you! We won't tell you anything even if you kill us!"
The few elves behind Delta remained silent. However, from their determined expressions, they obviously had the same thoughts.
"You guys seem to have misunderstood me. I have no intention of killing you! As for the information, you will tell me later."
Watson smiled and looked at King Landhar III. "Tell me, what is going on?"
The elves' lips twitched when they saw that scene. King Landhar III had colluded with them to kill Watson. How could King Landhar III say such things?
"Yes, my honorable master. Previously, I was obsessed and greedy for your powerful strength. I thought of joining forces with the elves and the Winter Nation to kill you. It's my fault for having such disrespectful thoughts. Please punish me as you see fit. "
King Landhar III addressed Watson respectfully. What he said left Delta and the other elves in a daze.
Was that for real? King Landhar III, who had just said that he wanted them to deliver the letter and unite with the elves to destroy Watson, had spoken to Watson so respectfully. Was he a coward?
"What else?"
"I wanted to betray the elves and the Northern Winter Nation after obtaining your great power, Master. I want to unify the continent, have sex with my beloved Avril every day, and enjoy the peak of my life."
"Stop!"
Watson reached out with his hand and interrupted King Landhar III's fantasy of a beautiful future. He frowned and asked, "That's not what I wanted to ask. Is your plan only as simple as uniting the elves and the Winter Nation?"
"Yes, after the previous failure, I've realized that in the face of absolute power, any conspiracies and tricks are useless!"
"Before your power grows, I'll unite the other two kingdoms because the Holy Dragon Kingdom's power is not enough. The elves still have their race chess pieces, and the Winter Nation also has powerful means left by their previous generation. Our three kingdoms can still summon the gods if that doesn't work. As long as we have enough power, we'll be able to kill you eventually, Master," King Landhar III replied respectfully.
He raised his head and carefully glanced at Watson as he finished speaking. "Of course, that is all in the past. I definitely don't dare have any such thoughts now."
"Why is the human king so obedient? Watson, what did you do to him?"
If she had been surprised when she saw King Landhar III reveal his secret, she was terrified then.
The human king had become a prisoner. What kind of method could he have used to do that? Did he take some kind of medicine or used some kind of spell?
While Delta was thinking, Watson spoke again. "As you can see, I used magic to transform him into that state. If you don't want to become the same, you'd better cooperate with me."
'So, he used magic.' Delta muttered in her heart after knowing Watson's method.
Things would be easier once she knew what method he used. Assassins like them had received special training in magic resistance; normal magic was completely ineffective against them. They could even pretend to be tricked and reveal false information to Watson.
"Next, I'll have to ask, how many assassins did you send to the planetary fortress? Does the Elven King have any other plans?"
"We sent about a hundred assassins this time. You've captured the rest of them, so you should know better! As for the Elven King's next plan, how would I know?"
"You don't know?"
Delta nodded. The corners of Watson's mouth curled upward, and he raised a finger as he said, "You just said that you would never surrender, even if you were killed. I want to know if that is true."
"Human brat, stop talking nonsense. What can you do if we don't tell you what you want to know? Why don't you kill us? For the sake of the Elven Kingdom, we are not afraid of death." A female elf behind Delta snorted coldly and mocked.
The other female elves also mocked him.
"It's a pity that that mission is not completed."
"Let's kill a few more humans before we die."
Their words made Watson angry, and even Nia's face was filled with anger.
They would not get out of there alive even if they gave Watson the information he wanted.
Since they were going to die anyway, they might as well keep their strong will before they died. They wanted to see Watson's exasperated expression.
To their surprise, Watson did not show any anger. Instead, his eyes revealed pity. He raised his finger and placed it on the elves who were speaking. "Fusion system, activate."
Following his actions, the elves in front of him turned into rays of light and fused in midair, turning into a single person.
[Congratulations, Master, for successfully fusing multiple platinum-tier elves. You have obtained a diamond-tier elf.]
[Diamond-tier elf: unnamed]
[Race: Ice and Fire Tree Giant]
[Abilities: Giant Transformation, Frost Throwing, Inferno Hell, Lava Spew, Death Pollen, and War Mist]
[Additional abilities: Absolute Ice Seal, Absolute Burning]
The system notification sounded, and the information appeared for Watson's eyes. Those elven bodies contained the bloodlines of different types of mythical creatures, including frost giants, balrogs, and ancient tree spirits. After the fusion, those bloodlines fused and turned into a diamond-tier ice and fire tree giant.
The fused elf was tall, fair, and beautiful. Her long emerald green hair flowed to her back, and one of her eyes was sky blue, while the other was scarlet red. One of them emitted a biting cold air, while the other looked like it was on fire.
The elves before the fusion were all gorgeous, and after the fusion, their looks became even more beautiful. They were not inferior to Delta. At that moment, the fused elf knelt on one knee toward Watson and bowed her head respectfully.
