My players are so fierce

Chapter 536 535. Fighting monsters? We are good at this. Come on, sign a contract first.

Adele's hatred for the Medjeva family is engraved in her bones, and she believes that her half-elves share the same hatred as her.

But that doesn't seem to be the case.

If what my childhood friend Lisa said is true, then many people in the Dark Valley seem to have forgotten their past hatreds. Perhaps it is because survival in this place is so difficult, and ancient hatreds are meaningless in the face of the cruel reality. .

After all, people can't eat hatred, except those who really have nothing.

In short, after the shadow elves who came over showed some "goodwill", many half-elves felt that maybe they should be given another chance.

How stupid!

From Lisa, her childhood friend, Adele learned that there are currently 3,500 people in the Dark Valley. This is a group created through difficult reproduction over the past twenty years. There are only 500 more people than when Adele left.

Breeding for half-elves is obviously not as difficult as that of real elves, but they are still at a disadvantage compared to humans who are particularly fertile.

This scale has basically reached the limit of the population that this valley can support. As the current mistress of the valley, Lisa must expand outside the valley if she wants to expand her group, and she has indeed done so.

"In a small woodland near the Black Flame Pass, our tribe established a small village of two hundred people. It was they who first discovered the escaped shadow elves, and most of the elves also live there. .

They exchanged some supplies for the village from us and named it 'New Mejeva'. "

In the Temple of Avalon in the valley, Lisa introduced the situation to Adele, and she said sarcastically:

"Those elves who are unwilling to be left alone are still trying to rebuild their families. Their ambition is to drive out the underground beasts and regain the city in the future, but I know that many of them are already desperate.

These guys are completely relying on the prophecy of the fate-weaver girl, but now that the fate-weaver girl has been kidnapped and her life or death is unknown, some shadow elves have become impatient and started to flee. According to the report of my scout, it will take a month or two at most. Then the village will be completely destroyed.

But as I just said, some of those elves haven't given up yet.

They came to my valley, tempting the elders to send people to rescue their prophets from the dangerous underground palace of the Goat People, and even made promises they could not keep at all.

They said they were willing to use the Mejwa family's treasure to hire us, and many young people were tempted, including several elders.

I also know that those nasty elves regard Mekel and I who have been resisting them as a thorn in their side, and they must be secretly planning to assassinate me, just like the stories our parents told us about the vicious elves. .

While the fate-weaver girl was still there, she was still able to suppress those guys who were ready to make a move.

But now that she's missing, it's hard to tell if those bastards are up to something dangerous in my valley.

You've come just in time, Adele. "

Lisa stepped forward and whispered to the Shadow Intelligence Officer:

"With the elders and shadow elves already making peace, Merkle and I can't get rid of these dangerous bastards who are jumping up and down in an honest way.

But you can!

I will hire the vampires under your command to get rid of those homeless dogs under the night. Then, I will regain power in the name of the mistress of Shadow Valley. At that time, I will talk to you about what the master behind you wants.

You see, Adele, it's useless even if I want to talk to you about this now. I came to power with the support of several elders. Many young people were willing to follow me, but those old men were very stubborn.

They have always been stubborn

I need your help, my friend, no, my bestie, we have a closer experience than friends, we were born to stand together, no matter what fate has turned you into, you are my dearest handkerchief pay. "

"Lisa, you are tempting me and letting me be the knife in your hand to kill your opponent!"

Although Lisa acted very sincerely, Adele's early experiences and what she saw and heard in serving Murphy had already changed her. The thoughts of the mistress of the valley in front of her could not be hidden from her at all.

Adele was a little disappointed, but she did not choose to pretend not to know but directly challenged the situation in front of her. She said sharply:

"I don't know what you have experienced these years, but there is no doubt that you have begun to succumb to the part of your bloodline that belongs to the shadow elves. You are using the shadow elves' best methods to deal with them. You even tried to turn a Strangers become your weapons against others.

Aunt Bernice would be very disappointed if she saw this. "

"You also said you are a stranger! Adele."

Seeing that the negotiation broke down, Lisa simply stopped pretending.

She took a step back and scolded Adele:

"You have been away from here for more than 20 years, do you still expect that your sudden appearance at this night will make everyone accept you like you did when you were a child?

I admit that I am using you, but you must understand that I have good intentions towards you, Adele, otherwise there is no need for me to let you enter the valley, let alone tell you all this information that should not be known to outsiders.

I am giving you a chance to let the tribe accept you again.

You also know the rules of this valley. Only after you bleed for a common goal can you become a member of this place. I hope you will become one of us again instead of appearing in front of me as a damn vampire master. Read The will of your master.

Damn it!

I haven't even met him!

Why should I listen to His call or even obey Him?

Adele, do you think what you want me to do is what a leader should do? I'm using you, but aren't you using our childhood relationship to coerce me?

Open your eyes and see, we are not young anymore!

We are no longer children who make arrangements for everything, let’s be realistic! If you want to get something, you have to give first.

Help me truly take charge, Adele.

I will give you and your master a satisfactory answer. "

These questions and answers made the Shadow Intelligence Officer a little helpless. She looked at Lisa with her arms folded in front of her. After a few seconds of silence, Adele said:

"You're afraid of me."

"Um?"

Lisa made a sound from her nostrils, she sneered and said:

"Why should I be afraid of you? I am not as strong as a vampire like you, but this is the Valley of Shadows. Adele, you know how fierce our people are when facing enemies.

The blood of the gladiators of the Eternal Rift flows in our veins. It was your mother who taught us not to be afraid of power! We will always remember Ms. Mona’s teachings, but you seem to have forgotten all of this.

You chose to be a vampire's dog."

"You're just afraid of me!"

Adele was not affected at all, she scolded:

"You're afraid that I'll go back to the valley to get what's mine, Lisa! You know better than anyone that your current position belongs to me.

You don't even dare to let me have contact with the elders!

Because you know that once they see Mona's daughter returning to the valley with outside power, and once I ask to inherit my mother's position, they may hesitate, but they will eventually oust you from the throne of leader with insufficient strength.

It’s not that they are cold-blooded, but that you are not good at this job at all, otherwise you would not have been able to deal with the elders after so many years. I guess your husband Meikel does not support you being hostile to the elders, otherwise you would not be able to do so. A 'stranger' came to beg me.

Lisa!

You must be desperate to try to hire us to help you, and I guess the one who is really hooking up with the shadow elves is not the elders, but you!

You are entangled with them, trying to use them just like me, but the shadow elves will not be fooled. Those guys who were born in the pool of conspiracy know very well who to choose to stabilize the situation when they are down.

Stop pretending.

The one who really needs help now is you, not me.

You'd better be honest with me! "

The shadow intelligence officer looked at Lisa's increasingly pale face in front of her. She knew that she had taken the initiative and took a step back, leaning on her mother's sarcophagus and looking at her childhood friend.

After giving Lisa, who was still very young and impulsive, a bit of a warning and giving her time to calm down, Adele spoke again:

“If you need help, just say it honestly.

I told you just now that Uncle Bella and Aunt Bernice are still here. They work with me to serve the governor of Transia, and Master Murphy wants to use the terrain of the Dark Valley to form an army here to resist the black disaster. front.

I will tell you the truth, I have already made plans and instructions to the warriors of Transia on the way here. They are fierce warriors that you cannot imagine in your worst nightmares, and your valley cannot protect you.

Once I give the order, they will use the craziest methods to defeat you and get Governor Murphy the victory he wants.

I'm not threatening you.

Okay, I'm threatening you!

Lisa, the mistress of the Dark Valley, I didn’t come here personally just to listen to you talk about the little conspiracy you are carrying out. My poor best friend, staying in this valley has obviously greatly limited your potential, making you like a well. A frog cannot see the real sky.

But my master is generous.

All he wants is the valley itself. After you move out, you will get a mountain forest that is ten times richer than here as your new home. If you want to live in a human city, then you will obtain the status of a resident of Scarlet Castle.

No one will discriminate against you because you are mixed race.

In fact, if my mother were still alive, if she had seen the current Scarlet Castle with her own eyes, then she would abandon this valley without hesitation and take everyone there through the filthy swamp.

That's what my over-idealistic mother wanted to see her whole life, and now, the chance to become a true leader is in your hands!

A qualified leader should not divide his tribe, but should lead them to a place where they can settle down and live. I have brought you everything you need to establish authority among your tribe, and all you have to do is nod. . "

Adele stretched out her hand and touched her mother's sarcophagus. She whispered:

"I will give you one last chance, Lisa, my childhood friend. You'd better make a reasonable choice before things take a turn for the worst.

I'm going to see the elders now.

I am sure to convince the old people who followed my mother to escape from the Eternal Rift. I will bring out a lot of evidence to convince them to agree to migrate. Now I just need the nod of you and the young people under your command.

But don’t worry”

Mrs. Vampire stepped forward and placed her hand on Lisa's beautiful cheek.

She stroked Lisa's cheek and oddly colored hair as she had done when she was a child.

She looked at Lisa's eyes with a hint of resistance and fear, and her fingers touched her forehead with her own.

She said softly:

"I will not take away your throne as leader, my poor childhood friend who has been bound by power. As long as you are willing, you are still the mistress of the Shadow Valley. But I don't think this title is better than Transia's official title. The certified 'Baron of the Valley' is even more distinguished.

You are learning from the shadow elf part of your bloodline, and you are unleashing your potential in this area.

This is good.

But learn it while you're at it, Lisa.

Shadow elves will never offer their loyalty to a weak matron. If you want to become the true leader of a family, you still have a lot to learn.

But don't be afraid, I will teach you.

Just like when I was a kid, I'm willing to teach you everything you don't know.

I will now rescue the missing fate-weaver girl.

If the shadow elves are eager to rebuild their family, then my master will generously give them a chance, and Transia will not refuse the shadow elves to join, provided they are willing to obey the rules of that land. "

Facing Adele's strong "persuasion", Lisa initially wanted to refute, but the more she listened, the more silent she became. She couldn't find a reason to confront the person in front of her.

Obviously, compared with Adele's experience and growth in the outside world for more than thirty years, Lisa, who has been trapped in the dark valley, has grown too immature, and she was almost completely crushed by Adele.

Until finally, when Adele let go, Lisa said in a tired and regretful voice:

"When you left, I thought I could get rid of your shadow. It was like when we played games together when we were children. I tried very hard to become the king of children every time, but even if you were so silent, the valley's Children are still willing to listen to you.

I thought it was because of Ms. Mona's aura, and I thought you just had a good family background.

But it wasn't until now that I realized that wasn't the case.

You are more suitable to be our leader than Ms. Mona, Adele. This position may be yours by nature. If you are willing to come back, I will give up the position of leader. "

"No, take it, Lisa, there's no need to feel guilty, you earned it for yourself."

Adele reached out and hugged her tired friend. She didn't care about the jealousy and slight resentment hidden in Lisa's words. She patted Lisa on the back and said:

"You need to continue to lead our people, and I will make what my mother left behind truly glorious, but not because of power.

I will assist you to become a true half-elf leader and let your influence spread throughout Transia and even the Dark Mountains. I only hope that you will stand by my side when I need it.

I will be your shadow, and the reward I desire will not come from you.

you're right.

We are meant to stand together. "

Adele let go of Lisa and held out her little finger to her childishly.

Lisa, who was originally sad, laughed out loud when she saw this action. She glanced at Adele helplessly, and extended her little finger to hook it with her, as if little girls had made a certain agreement. .

“You and I work together to convince the elders to let them take the old, weak, women and children to live in Transia, so that they can live the stable life they have always wanted, while you and the young people who are eager to make achievements stay in the valley.

Face the black disaster with us! "

Adele said:

"You don't need the support of the old people to be strong. You can share the power I bring. This will be your first gift to the Governor of Transia. I believe you have seen the power of the warriors with your own eyes. After that, I will be willing to be loyal to my master.”

"Is that really just your master? Adele."

Lisa whispered:

"Why do I feel that you have complicated feelings for him? Are you still alone now?"

"I don't want to talk about this issue, it's not that I don't want to tell you."

Adele sighed. She turned back to look at her mother's sarcophagus, and recalled the damn bewitchment of Lady Water that night. Her conversation with Lady Water that night was just like her conversation with Lisa now.

One woman is defeated by another woman.

So after a few seconds of silence, she said:

"I actually don't know the answer either."

——

"Lisa is working with Shadow Elf? Damn it!"

In the player camp, the ranger captain Merkel, who had just defeated Ashina in archery, was standing in front of Mrs. Bernice with a hammer guard on her back. He did not despise Mrs. Bernice because she had become an undead. she.

Instead, he maintained his childhood respect and told his undead mother-in-law all about his wife's current predicament.

Part of this respect and frankness comes from his current relationship with Lady Bernice, and part of it comes from the "childhood shadow". Lady Bernice personally trained him and whipped him when he was a child.

This is the "tradition" of the Shadow Valley. Every half-elf in this valley is actually as contradictory as Adele. They resist everything about the shadow elves, but after they become truly independent, they need to learn something from the shadow elves' system. Form your own tradition.

For example, shadow elves often use whips to "inject wisdom" into their apprentices.

"My daughter has not been a wise person since she was a child. She will only be played around by the shadow elves. How could she become a bastard who would sell out her people for power? Ah, maybe this is all my fault. If she grows up I can be by her side sometimes."

Mrs. Bernice blamed herself.

But the indifference of the undead made her self-blame seem like a declaration of sin. She was obviously dissatisfied with her daughter's current situation, which made Markle a little worried.

He tried to explain to his wife, but before he could speak, Mrs. Bernice stood up suddenly.

"Take me back, I will teach her a lesson!"

The Knight of Hades scolded:

"Before she foolishly angers Adele, I must bring her back on track. The half-elves of Shadow Valley can never walk with the shadow elves! This is betraying our sacrifice."

She walked out of the tent with a rare angry attitude among the undead, but just before Mrs. Bernice set off, she saw huge blood wings unfolding in the dark night. Those were the wings of Adele when she returned, and they fell a moment later. In the camp.

Baroness Shadow let go of her hand. Lisa, who was pale due to the high-speed flight in her arms, stood there with her legs weak. When she looked up, she saw the Knight of Hades in front of her striding towards her.

"Mother?"

"Snapped"

The call was answered with a loud slap, causing the mistress of Shadow Valley to cover her face with a terrible expression of "Mom, love me again". Seeing that Mrs. Bernice was going to slap her again, Adele reached out and held her hand. touched her wrist.

she says:

"Lisa made a mistake, but I got her back on track. Aunt Bernice, she realized her mistake and brought us important news.

The Governor's will will take root in the Dark Valley, but we must complete a prerequisite task first. "

"What to do?"

Bernice asked in return, and Adele shrugged. As the core orb issued a mission, she said to the Knight of Hades:

"First go and rescue a Shadow Elf Fateweaver in the territory of the Goatman. It should be very dangerous there. As the high-end force of the pioneering group, I ask you to lead the warriors to complete the mission. I will also return to the valley to negotiate with the elders. The problem of Transia sending an envoy.”

"Okay, I'll leave as soon as I'm ready."

Bernice didn't refuse.

She took over the command with the crispness that a knight of the underworld should have, and the players around her got up eagerly after receiving the task of "rescuing the fateweaver", noisily calling friends to prepare for "fighting monsters and upgrading" ".

Merkel looked at this scene with strange eyes. If he remembered correctly, his mother-in-law just emphasized that he could not go with the shadow elves in the Dark Valley.

Hello, mother-in-law!

What are you going to do?

Oh, your daughter and son-in-law will be slapped if they associate with the Shadow Elf. It’s okay for you to save the Shadow Elf’s big shot yourself, right?

How can you have such double standards? Is this what death teaches you? This death is not too serious!

"What are you looking at?"

Mrs. Bernice glared at her son-in-law and scolded:

"Pack your things and follow me. My daughter has been deceived by you. You have to shoulder the responsibility!"
